@mrs bunchy: YAYYYYY! Have you decided what your ttc plans are? I think a lot of us will be trying around the same time.
@Jess1483: True story.

@simplyfelicity: well- I am planning on doing a hysteroscopy next month to check for a uterine septum. Then- ill do cycle day 3 blood work the following cycle. You see- I was supposed to get this all done before I got pregnant.. But low and behold 1 week after my HSG I got knocked up and all those protocols went down the shitter! now, we are back-tracking. We are checking with my insurance to see if they will cover a hysteroscopy for recurrent pregnancy loss, since I have no "infertility" coverage.

@mrs bunchy: Yay! I'm glad you'll get to move on to your next steps soon!

@jaguar: Sounds like a great training program! And don't worry, I'm very weak when I cross train too...but the more you cross train and build your core muscles, the easier running will be! And you totally deserve that treat lunch date! P.S. Congrats on the cross hairs!
@simplyfelicity: So cute! Thank you!!
@mrs bunchy: Hooray!! Hope all goes well with your hysteroscopy when you schedule it...

Hey Girls!
Just checking in on my lunch break.
Congrats for cross hairs, cross training, and AF!
I totally commiserate with those still waiting. I had a natural MC that took longer than expected (they kept saying it would happen in a day or two and I'd go back in a week and hear it again!) that by the time it was over I was actually sort of relieved. But then continuing to have to wait was killer.
All the waiting for things was WAY worse in my experience than anything else involved.

Phew! This has been a looooooong week. I've exercised 5/5 days and feeling GOOD. Hanging out with preggo SIL tonight and trying to be brave and not focus on her baby stuff.... I wish this was easier.

@jaguar: wow!! That's awesome to have that kinda motivation to work out 5 days in a row!! I work with a preggo... So I try to not focus on that everyday! It's rough. Literally had 2 crying moments in front of DH tonight. Could be a combo of AF hormones, picking up a 13 hr shift tomorrow and 8 hr shift Saturday, or trying to come to terms with all these losses.
Or maybe the smith and forge I had??

@MaryM: I agree- waiting these last 6 weeks for AF was so har and drawn out. I was literally praying for it to come.

@mrs bunchy: Oh you poor thing. I've had those crumple moments as well, they're so tiring and come out of the blue.

@mrs bunchy: You give me hope that mine is just around the corner!

DH and I are watching my two year old niece tonight. Makes me feel happy/sad/impatient to have a family. She is so enamored of him. Ugh...is it weird that it makes my womb "hurt?" Probably but it is true...
pomegranate / 3533 posts
@simplyfelicity: Nope...not weird. I totally get that!

@simplyfelicity: My ovaries hurt ALL THE TIME around wee ones. Absolutely not you. x

@FliegepilzHut: @jaguar: Glad you guys understand.
Hanging out with my newest nephew (born on Tuesday.) Thought it would be harder than it is. Probably because my sis was 6 months when I found out I was KU. I feel more removed than anything else. He's cute though.

@simplyfelicity: I have total baby lust... Glad it wasn't too rough hanging with your sister and new nephew!

I feel like it's different with family too. My SIL's kids are like therapy to me. I held her 2 year old til I ached in July (she was teething, so cuddlier than normal) and last time I went home I nearly kidnapped her. I mean, they have 8. They can spare one, right??

@simplyfelicity: Oh wee baby.
I went baby clothes shopping with SIL last night. Did better than I thought. x

I held my friend's week-old baby today and totally melted. It wasn't sad for me though, which was a bit surprising. He was so small and squishy!

@Jess1483: @jaguar: I am so glad to hear this. I am still disappointed and sad that it happened but I am not as devastated anymore. I don't have it on my mind ALL the time like I used to. It's a huge relief.

Maybe this is part of the grieving process - being able to move on a little bit, one day at a time, ya know? That's how I'm trying to, anyway.
cantaloupe / 6634 posts
@jaguar: Completely agree. There will be good moments and bad moments but I am definitely welcoming the good and trying to view the future with some hope.

6dpo today. I have a bloods referral to check progesterone.. just deciding when to have it done. Could do it tomorrow.... or wait another few days & hope for a miracle conception with some hcg haha.
pomegranate / 3533 posts
@jaguar: Yes to the miracle conception! My RE told me I didn't need to prevent this month...so I'm really close to you in the TWW (based on CM only)!
cantaloupe / 6634 posts
@jaguar: @FliegepilzHut: Heck yes on a miracle conception! Either of you ladies get your first AF yet? I wonder what time frame is normal?
P.S. HB is being super lame and "eating" up my posts.
ETA: I am so lame, you guys just said your dpo...home after spending two days with my sister's 4 kids. Can I use that as an excuse for forgetting common sense?
pomegranate / 3533 posts
@simplyfelicity: No AF yet...which means I didn't skip a month. I'm hoping for a "normal" cycle, so another 7-8 days or so. And while not impossible, a miracle is highly improbable...but a girl can dream, I guess?
cantaloupe / 6634 posts
@FliegepilzHut: Well, if you and Jag are in the same spot and we all had our D&Cs around the same time, I am going to assume the same for myself. DH and I have not been careful this month but it seems pretty unlikely. I would rather wait until my first AF but I am not sure that even really matters.
No reason to not dream. You never know.
