Trying to Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ August 08 #2

[KrystieLove]

Mollycat - Huge hugs for you sweetness

Babyfever - If you could pm me your email address I'll email you the study and a webaddress
But sorry, nope, never had that happen to me just before AF. I seem to have a bit of a higher sex drive during the tww, but I think it might be because I won't have sex in case it "mixes things up" too much, so it might be a case of "you want what you can't have"
I think I'll still go to the acupuncturist maybe once a month or fortnightly when I'm pregnant. My best friend went all through her pregnancy and loved it. Plus if I get a massage each time.... hehe

Jen - Serious?! No ticket yet?!
I'm flabergasted that your real name is Jen! Who would have thought?!

[KrystieLove]

LARZ! - I was just thinking about you while I was doing the cycle list and I went searching for you to see if you made any other posts

Firstly, congrats on being pregnant again, and I sincerely hope that things go well for you!

The hcg level does seem to be pretty low, but hopefully you either ovulated later than you thought, or perhaps bubba didn't implant until late?

My thoughts are with you sweetheart and I hope that your next blood test shows a lovely increase in hcg for you and bubs.

[larz]

Thanks Kristielove....

My herbalist said I did ovulate late and I'm about 3 days behind in hcg levels....

but just so scared cause 23 is so low

get results a 5pm today, going crazy thinking about it

but thanks for all the well wishes

Issy~ sorry AF is on the way I'm with you on getting pg in 2009 I'm thinking I wanna have a end of 2009 baby or new years 2010 baby ...

Chappas ~ Hey girl I know you going to miss your DD while she is gone ...

Easha you got that BFP !!!

KrystieLove the acupuncturist sounds great I hope you get a sticky lil bub this month ...

[jen805]

Thanks for the updated list Krystie! I'm so grateful that you always keep up with everyone's info! I really appreciate you, Pill Girl!



larz--Oh, hon... I'm not really sure as there's such a wide range between women. I'm with you for your miracle, sweetie! Will you have to wait until tomorrow for your BT results? I'm sorry things are so stressful for you right now during a time when you're supposed to be rejoicing. Please let us know if there's anything you need--we're all here for you! Sending tons of



Nuff--Are you (as my DS2 would say) freezing balls yet? Hope you can check in and let us know how you're doing! I'm those "sticking" herbs are doin' their thing! Shaky shaky!

Babyfever - I dont have a chart at the moment, I used to chart on FF (my account is still open) but havent done it for ages. I stopped temping a few months ago and now only temp the last few days of my cycle, just to see when AF will arrive. But thanks for the offer

Jen - My degree is a 4 year degree in junior primary/primary teaching (or a Bachelor of Education), which means I will be teaching students from Reception to Year 7 ( 5-12 years olds). I already have a diploma in childrens services which means I am qualified to educate children from birth to 12 years old. I dont get to choose which grade I teach, I just have to study for them all, and take the job in which ever grade it happens to pop up in. I really enjoy it, hard work, but very enjoyable. Speaking of which, I saw on Oprah the pay rate for teachers in your country....WOW, its not very fair !!!! (thats what the show was about) Teachers here are paid $30,000 more than the teachers in America. We are fighting hard here at the moment to be paid more too. I hope they award the pay increase before I start in June next year

So anyway, after that little rant....I POAS and it was a VERY CLEAR BFN! What I expected really, but just thought Id check. As I said im pretty sure I didnt ovlulate this month.

Oh and how could I forget.....YAY YAY YAY for pbstar!!!!! Those numbers look great...cant wait to hear of those doubled numbers in a few days!

[jen805]

Sorry, larz, we posted at the same time--I see now you'll get your results today. You're in my Sending loads of



Krystie-- Who woulda thunk it?

[Toccara50]

Jen I hope you get that BFP you are wishing for !!!

Rachel Thanks for the well wishes but my cycle has been off so I dont know when I am going to O I will just Bd once a week maybe I kinda wish I know when I O'ed so I could bd that day I'm going to the doc soon to make sure I am O'ing ...

Mollycat I would have never guess your name was helen I just assumed it was molly lol ...

Larz congrats on the BFP I everything if fine and you just o'ed late ...

Pbstar Yay I'm so happy for you those numbers look great !!!

Hey Jen Jen ... I can't sleep its 12:14 am here ... lol

[Babyfever2007]

LARZ- Oh girl, I pray that your bubs just implanted late, Or you Oed later than you thought. Those levels are low, did she do a progesterone check too? Don't worry ATM hun, Sometimes babies implant late, I pray that your levels are higher and looking very well when you get them back let us know ASAP. And, Congrats darling.

Easha- BRING ON THAT BFP.. I'm hoping for good results there. ..

I made DH go get me sweet potatos I WANT TWINS!!! even though I would probably be on bed rest my whole pregnancy since I'm a high risker, My acupunterist used to be a OBGYN and delievers his daughters babies, And me and her are friends, She is pregnant right now with her 2nd child and we were due same day and month but I had the miscarried so it sucks. She had home birth and is doing again (lucky her I'm so jelious) Anyways, I was told I cannot have one because of the fact I'm so high risk (Asthma, Small body & pelvis) My kids were born pre term my first was born at 37 weeks with lung developing problems almost had to have the tube down the mouth but pulled out enough were she didn't even need the mask anymore, but ahd to be in the NICU for 1 week due to she didn't nurse well or bottle well, Had a tube of food in her nose. Aspen was born 35 weeks went home day too with me and was fine...So SO MUCH FOR home birth. (I still want water birth).. lol...

Since you guys are day ahead of me go ahead and fix that to 1DPO please

[Where there's hope]

Jen, KrystieLove, AJC, AngelBabies, Joey, Smilantu, Tocarra, PBStar, Easha, Tocarra (and any one I have missed) - Thanks for your recent messages. I have read them. Just have not always been on here long enough to reply. But it does make me feel a little special to be in your thoughts and to catch your positive vibes.

Issy - You returned while I have been MIA. It is so good to see you on here (though looking forward to finding you on the PG thread very soon!)

LARZ - best wishes for you. Hopefully it is just very early days and your HCG levels will sky rocket.

KrystieLove - I am thinking of seeing an accupuncturist. Not sure I want to do the whole chinese herb thing, though. Will do a general post to see if anyone can recommend a good one South of Sydney or in the Illawarra region.

AFM - Was tooting along just fine (all things considered). DH, DD and I had our break away. But came home to a very sick cat. After 5 days in the vet's care, then 24 hours at home, I had to make the heartbreaking decision to put her down, on Saturday afternoon. This was my breaking point - like the final straw. My cat was very old - her kidneys had packed it in - but she had been around nearly half my life. I cried more over this then my recent MC. I was just feeling so jinxed. Why now? When would this damn run of bad luck end? I am going ok now. Just ready for some good luck. I will put away my violin now...

[mollycat]

Jen and Tocorra - only a special group of people get to call me "molly" or "mollycat". All the regular people refer to me as Helen (or as the kids say Hannan). Honestly, I never really liked Helen as a name - probably wouldn't like molly either if it was my name. LOL. Just really suits my cat - and I think she was on my desk or something at the time when I was registering and there was already a helen.

Jen - your force field is still in place (can you take it down now???) i'm so over waiting for AF - i just hate it when she's late, early I can handle but late is annoying. I really wish my temp hadn't dropped.

Larz - that everything will be ok for you.

[jen805]

issy-- I missed that Oprah--but Wow! $30,000 more? That's crazy... I knew the teachers here were underpaid (and overworked), but didn't realize it was that bad! They only get paid at the end of the month, too--is that how it works there? Seems like it would be hard to have to wait the whole entire month for your check--it should be every other week. I love the teachers at DS's school--they're amazing, and it astounds me that they can handle all those kids! How many kids are usually in a class there? DS's 1st grade class last year had 20 kids, but then my DSD's 5th grade class last year had about 30 kids! I could never be a teacher--I just don't have the patience! Good on you for wanting to influence the lives of so many children!



Toccara--OMG, can't believe you're still up! It's almost 9:30 here, and if I weren't typing right now, I'd be That's why I can't ever sit down on the couch--as soon as I sit down, unless it's at the computer, I fall right to sleep! But I do get up really early... Hope you get some sleep soon!

[larz]

wherethereshope - I see a great Herbalist in Coogee, she specialises in fertility, and got my ovulation from day 24 to day 16 in just 6 weeks.

Have a look at her website parentingnaturally.com.au

Thank you all for your support, I will let you all know my HCG levels tomorrow.

[Toccara50]

WTH ~ I'm so sorry to hear about your cat and that you are felling down right now and I'm for you ...

Jen I have not been sleeping well for about 3 or 4 days now ...

Molly ~ Well I don't like for people call me by my full name either I tell them to call me Tee some of my friends call me Tokyo for some reason though ... lol

[Where there's hope]

Larz - thanks for the recommendation. I think my diet is the one thing I am getting right, but an initial consultation couldn't hurt, either. I guess I have been holding back from seeing a nutritionist because I do not want to wait 3 or so months.

Tocarra - thanks. I am doing a lot better than I was on Saturday. I will be okay. It is just weird looking for her in her regular places and then realising she is not there. She is now "resting" under a tree in our yard, which was one of her hang-outs.

[plc1805]

WTH - big hugs sweety
larz - I am doing my darndest praying for you

hello to everyone - i am still ur serial stalker wishing you well from the sidelines.
