Including losses it’s been about 16 months<br /> How old are you? 35 (36 next month)<br /> Do you have other children? Yes, two living children DD (4) and DS (2)<br /> How many losses have you had? 3 pregnancy losses and our first son passed away at 6 weeks old.<br /> How far along were you when you lost your pregnancy? 5, 8.5, and 11 weeks<br /> What are your plans for next steps? We are starting ivf next cycle. We will do the retrieval in a couple of weeks hopefully, and transfer in July or August<br /> How are you doing emotionally? I’m ok for the most part about my pregnancy losses. It’s all very unfair, but to be honest, I don’t think of them as painfully or as frequently as I do my son who we lost. I don’t think I’ll ever feel like our family is complete, but I’m hoping to feel more complete with adding another baby. I think I shut myself off emotionally to my pregnancy losses to a degree as a method of self preservation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/plans-after-loss#post-2884280 Mon, 13 May 2019 14:26:35 +0000 SweetCaroline 2884280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: Thank you for this. Today has been a hard day.</p> <p>How many cycles have you been trying? Only 2 but I was on TTC hold for medical reasons for several months leading up to TTC so it feels like longer!<br /> How old are you? 32<br /> Do you have other children? 1<br /> How many losses have you had? 1<br /> How far along were you when you lost your pregnancy? 9 weeks<br /> What are your plans for next steps? Waiting 3 cycles to be 100% certain of my cycles before TTC again. It was easier to accept the loss and move forward with D&amp;C because I was certain of my dates.<br /> How are you doing emotionally? I have been doing dramatically better. However, this AM on my way to work I was hit hard with emotion because I was expecting to be pregnant this Mother's Day and am no longer. THEN, I got to work and someone had a cutesey pregnancy announcement and they are due in November, which I was too. I spent most of the morning blinking back tears. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/plans-after-loss#post-2884278 Mon, 13 May 2019 13:57:14 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2884278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How many cycles have you been trying? 2<br /> How old are you? 40 (almost 41)<br /> Do you have other children?
