Indiana Babies

Hi and intro on me

Hi! I thought I should expand my bump horizons and not be secluded on the loss boards. As you can see from my siggy, I've had three losses in the last two years. Am I in the minority over here by not having any kids yet or not being pg? I am trying to rectify that situation asap, but we shall see!

I live in Kokomo, but grew up mostly in the Fishers area.

Re: Hi and intro on me

  • Welcome!  I am so, so sorry for your loses.  There are a lot of girls on here who do not have kids yet or who are not trying yet.  We welcome everyone!

  • Hello and welcome! I'm so very sorry to hear about your losses. I cannot imagine the pain...

     

    There are several women on here who do not have children, myself included. We're on our sixth cycle trying Smile

  • Did you go to HSE?  I can't really tell by the picture, but I think I know you.

     

    Edit: Hope my post doesn't sound creepy. Embarrassed

    Hi! I was known as Jenny back then, but a college friend changed me to Jen, said it sounded more grown up, lol. FWIW, I didn't think you were creepy at all - I kinda figured by posting on an indiana board I might find someone who knew me.

  • I started my first post as JENNY?!? And then decided I should probably make sure first. Smile I'm so sorry about your losses

  • Lol, that's funny. Yeah, I'm sad about my losses, but you just have to move on. I have a plan for next time, so I'm hopeful! How have you been?? I haven't talked to anyone from high school in a looooong time...

  • Welcome, Jen!! Definitely lots of girls on here in various stages of life, including some girls who aren't even trying yet (lots of us migrated here together from the IN Knot board).

    I am so so sorry about your losses. Not that you haven't found support on the TTCAL board, but you'll find tons of support here, too.

    We're pretty much on first-name bases around here! Glad to have you!

    ETA - I said we're on a first name basis, but never said my name. Duh! I'm Lauren, married to Brian, momma to Ella. :)

  • I've been really good. I haven't talked to very many people from HSE either.

  • Hi and welcome!  I'm not married nor have kids, so you're totally fine here.  We're a pretty open group of women!  Can you tell me what Hetero MTHFR is?  I haven't seen that one on here before.  TIA!

    MTHFR is a genetic mutation, I have the heterozygous version..... And honestly, I don't know much about it. Lots of opinions in the medical field over whether or not MTHFR plays a role in recurrent pregnancy loss. I do know it interferes with the absorbtion of folic acid, so I have to take extra. That's honestly all I really know for sure...

    I'm glad I'm not the only one unmarried and no kids! I lurked a bit before posting, and the majority of the posts seemed to be pg or kid related, so I apparently made the wrong assumption. :-)

  • Ah.  Thanks for explaining as much as you do.  Like Lauren said, a bunch of us migrated from the IN Knot board.  I was on there when I was planning my wedding, but we called it off before going through with it.  I followed everyone over here and have been here for the last year and a half.  It's been really educational and I feel so much smarter from being on here!  Oh, and my name is Emily.  I live in Louisville, KY.
  • Hello! Welcome!!  Sorry to hear about your losses.
  • Sorry about your losses...it's great that you are so positive and have a plan!  The girls on this board are so open and friendly :D
  • Welcome!  I'm so sorry for your losses.
  • Jen!! How are you doing, sweetie?

    Saw the screen name and figured it had to be you. :)

    Welcome to the board!

    ETA: Erm, I should probably be more specific as to who I am.. It's Emily from the Fab Fourth. ;)

  • Welcome!  I'm so sorry to hear about your losses! 

    I also went to HSE - graduated in 1998. 

    I never had any losses, but took awhile to get PG.  My PAI-1 is also 4G4G - I was on baby aspirin until I got PG and now I'm on lovenox everyday.  They'll switch me to heparin at about 36 weeks or so.

  • Hello and welcome! It looks like you had plenty of friends here before even posting ;) I'm sorry to hear about your losses. It sounds like you are taking things in stride and have a plan for next time.

    I'm Jill, I don't post much. We have MFI and are leaning towards adoption. It will be a while before we can begin the process though. Welcome to the board!

  • Hi and welcome!  So sorry for all that you've been through but I love your positive attitude!  Hope you stick around!

  • Welcome to the board!  I am so sorry for your losses, but I love your attitude!  Be sure to post on here!  :)
  • Hi, I'm Amanda, welcome to the board!  I have had two losses and am now 5+ weeks from becoming a Momma.  I'm glad you were able to discover what may have been causing them and now have a plan.  I never was diagnosed with anything but I have been on baby asprin this whole pregnancy.
  • HI, welcome to the board. I don't get to come on very much these days since we are so busy at work. I spend most of my time over on the IF board which was T-TTC. I live in Carmel and we are trying to get pregnant. I spend a lot of time on the M/C board late last year and I am very sorry for your losses. We hope to get back to going to our new RE in January, it's been a tough year and I needed a break.

    Everyone here is super nice and I hope to get back to hanging out more often soon.

  • Hello and Welcome to the boards. The girls here are wonderful and I'm sure you'll love the support you'll find here. Like Lauren said, everyone is pretty much known on a first name basis.

     I'm Rachael, I am from Carmel and don't have any kids, nor am I trying right now! :) So you're not the only one without children here. I "met" this lovely group of girls over on the knot and followed over here when we made the migration.

    I'm sorry for your losses but I love the positive outlook you have! Stick around, you're sure to have some fun here. :)

    EM!!! I didn't know you were on the bump too! Hi! How are you? I am hanging in there, been a rough year but I'm stronger for it.

    I have been hanging around for forever, it seems. I posted a bunch on the knot with this group, pre and immediately post-wedding, but don't post as much these days.

    This year really has been rough for you, but I admire your attitude. How's Jeremy?

    Keep in touch with anyone from our floor?

  • I'm a little late, but hello and welcome.  I'm so sorry for your losses, but I am glad that you have such a wonderful outlook and have gotten some answers!

    I'm Sara, married to Jack, and mommy to Elliott (2 yrs) and Oliver (7 wks).

    Everyone is so nice and helpful - and I'm another migrant from the knot way back in the day when planning my wedding.

    Glad to have you!

    Sara ;)
