Babies on the brain 24 - 7
We have been ttc for years and I can't get babies off my mind from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep!!! It's all I think about and to be honest it's driving me alittle insane! I've cleared out my spare room so basically it's empty and I've look on most baby websites and catalogues and know roughly what I'd like to buy. I can't even go out and about without checking out other peoples buggies etc and making a mental note of what they have got so I can google it when I get home!!!
Is anyone else the same or am I going crazy??!?!?!

I'm so sorry to hear about your mc's I know how heartbreaking they can be, I had one 2 months ago
When I found out we were expecting I dragged my hubby into Babies R Us and mothercare and even though I was only a few weeks I puffed my tummy out with pride (I wasn't even showing!) becasue finally I felt like I belonged in the shop. Now he has banned me from go in there because I get all upset leave about 2 minutes after I have arrived!! I think I might take up gardening as a hobby to take my mind of things!!! lol
The 2ww is horrible isn't it?! I wish you all the luck in the world and hope you get a BFP.
All the best of luck to you too, fc for you. Xxx
I have to admit I always thought you got pregnant and your only real worry was how it was going to come out!! I never realised how hard it would be and all the things that go through your mind. I was scared to move half the time!
I can't even imagine what your friend must of gone through, I hope she is doing alright.
I was told to calm down and not get carried away but I couldn't help it either there are so many cute things out there. I was good though and didn't buy anything but I know exactly the kind of things I'd like!!
Great news on my testing today! I got a BFP! obviously I've launched straight into excited mode....checking my due date, watching animated videos of babies in the womb on U-tube and all that sort of thing.
My man has said not to get too excited and that he doesn't really want to acknowledge it properly yet incase we lose it again but I know I can't do that so I'll just worry instead!
I've been up since 5.15am gonna be so tired later!
All the best of luck to you and I really hope you get a BFP soon with a strong healthy bean.
Xxx
Big congratulations hug from me
P.s not sure if they helped or not but I have been using the Clear Blue ovulation sticks with the smiley face, conceive plus lube and also taking pregnacare conception tablets as I heard really good things about them. Not sure if you are doing of these but might be worth a try if not. X
Aww thanks but I've tried loads, I've even had two treatments of IVF. I've just found out I have slighty high NK Cells which might be killing of anything my body feels is "unnatural" Hopefully this is my answer as I started round three of my IVF and using up my last two eggs. I will be on a new course of drugs which fingers crossed might help
I found out yesterday there is still a cyst which was formed after my last ivf so as long as that doesn't get any bigger, I should have the transfer done in about 6-7 weeks roughly so in 8-9 weeks I should know if it's worked our not.
As you say, fingers crossed they have found the answer and you can move forward and get back to Babies R Us!
8 or 9 weeks, I thought the 2ww was bad enough.
Very very very best of luck to you. Xx
Thats alright, you haven't exactly had it easy either!
You betcha I'll be back in that shop but for now I'll settle with checking out the website and adding to my wish list!! lol Not sure where my endless bucket of money is going to come from but I can dream!!
(ha ha only just spotted that smiley face and had to use it!!!)
These few weeks should fly by as I have an appointment or something baby wise going on each week but the 2ww after the transfer are hard!! Like you it's the not knowing that drives me mad. Still I'll get two weeks off work to chill out which will be nice.
I was going to start my new hobby and do the garden today but the weather is rubbish so ironing it is!!!!! Joy
I'll let you know how I get on with the IVF not the ironing!! tee hee
Yes a bucket of money is what we need I could go crazy buying baby things they are so adorable. I'm really good though and don't do it as mostly is wasted money as the baby doesn't know any different.
I went on my friends sisters hen night on Saturday, she (her sister) has had 12 miscarriages! She has got no children but is pregnant again at the moment so fingers crossed this one is the one.
The weather is a bit better today, quick get out in the garden!
I'm off to my friends for lunch soon
I just know i will be the type of person that will take everything including the kitchen sink out with me! My hand bag is full of stuff just in case!! lol
I so wish i was at home right now. I had half day on Friday so i could reply on my laptop now im on my phone and can't really see what important writing!! Im really not interested in work though
I feel differently this time though. I've gone off tea and coffee and I'm tired. I have the odd shooting pain in my abdomen but not the dull ache of a period pain that I had with the others. I'm really bloated too. I've always had a big tummy lol. I'm pretty skinny but have always had a massive tum. My sister is the same. It got worse after my daughter was born 2 years ago. I never did and excerise just wore baggy tops lol. Well, now I'm bloated I swear I look about 4 months pregnant, or more!
I know what you mean about work, Zzzzzzz. I'm so lucky in that I have stayed off with my daughter. My fella is happy for me to do that ( at the moment at least).
I'm in no rush to go back that's for sure.
Well it's going to be a lovely day today so they say. Let's hope so.
Have a nice day whatever you're up to.
Hello!! How are you??
I can totally relate to how you must of felt, if you read the post dealing with other peoples pregnancy's I have had a good rant about my feelings. I'm alright now though so please don't feel like you can't talk about what your going through, I want to hear all about it!!
Its good that you are feeling different this time.
I'm quite skinny too, used to get called worm at school (kids are so mean!! lol) and I felt like I was going to turn into the hulk and start busting out of my clothes. My trousers got so tight around my tummy they kinda hurt!
I had a blood test today and it wasn't good so they won't let me go ahead with the IVF next month
I have to have another scan done when my next af arrives and then they will work out whats going on. I am trying to do it naturally this time with out drugs but they might have to put me back on them. Either way I will have this af and possibly two more before I can have the transfer done. I'm not going to let it get me down though, I am just going to garden for the next few months even if it rains!!!! lol
Have a great weekend
No need to feel guilty, i totally understand how you must feel and your not being selfish at all. im sorry to hear about your mc's.
It is hard when everyone around is either pregnant or have just had a baby. It must be even harder for you as your around it all the time where as now i try
and avoid it. I turn down going to my friends kids parties because from the time I've been trying for one, they now have two. Then i get the dreaded question...so when are you having kids!
I really hope you don't have to wait much longer and everything works out fir you
I can understand why you are feeling down but you aren't a failure. Your just going through a really hard time right now and are dealing with alot of emotions. I only got to 7 weeks so I cant even imagine how hard it was for you to get to 12 and 13 weeks. I'm sending you a great big hug and I hope with time it becomes alittle bit easier.
I went wedding dress shopping with a great friend of mine yesterday and we were talking about babies (It's basically all I talk about, even dragged her into babies r us just to torture myself!! lol). She is getting married in March and would like to start trying straight after. I would love her to have a baby around the same time as me but I don't know if I could handle it if she got pregnant before I did. That sounds so selfish and I know I would be so happy for her but inside it would crush me.
