    I was just thinking about that too. It makes me feel kind of sad and sick to my stomach. 

     You and I were due really close to eachother.

    Yes, we were really close to having the same due date. I see that you are from KY. I live in Jeffersonville, IN. I cant but help to count the days and think how far along i would be today, how much bigger and more pregnant beautiful i would look right now. But at 4 1/2 months, I hadnt put on but 6 lbs, and now its like by looking you couldnt even tell i was ever pregnant, it is very depressing Crying I want and yurn so bad to be pregnant, not sure if DH is on the wagon for ttc when we are allowed to and that just gets me more depressed, it is like why can everyone else be pregnant and have thier babies, why couldnt I. I am very thankful that i have my 9 y/o son, but we all wanted so badly to have another addition to our family, Joel. Now it seems like we will never have that. It is sickening to the stomach, I agree.

    I'm in Louisville-just over the bridge! It helps thinking there's someone kind of nearby going through the same thing at the same time. Yeah, I was 4 mo, and a couple days when we lost our daughter. I got really bloated after, and my bp went sky high, so I looked more pg than I did when I was actually pg. I lost the couple lbs I had gained, and I was actually kind of glad. I hated the idea of people seeing me and asking questions. We too have a son- he's 2, but we really want a big family. It's just so tough. I hope your DH gets on the wagon to TTC. Maybe after he has some more time to grieve he will be more open to it.

    I am so sorry you were having problems after your m/c. Me, I lost so much blood that the dr has me taking meds to replenish everything, and said just to stay on my prenatal vitamins too, and that will help with all the blood i lost over the past month or so, plus it'll help my body prepare to become pregnant again (if it'll ever happen).

    Yes, I hate that people ask about the baby, i had someone instant message me this morning asking about him b/c they did not know what had happened. It's like you have to become a robot when people ask or you will just fall over and die at the thought of reliving the most painful moments in our lives.

    Wow, okay, yeah louisville is like 2 minutes away from me. So what do you do for work? I work for a cleaning company, but will not be returning as far as i know, and DH agrees, until the first of the year, sometime around the first of January. I hope he gets on the wagon as well, and I think he will given some time. He just is really nervous about what happened this go round, and is afraid of going through it again, i supose. I think that we as women are more apt to wanting to start trying sooner than the men for some reason. I just tell him that im not trying to rush him, i am just telling him how i feel about it, and he agrees that is fine.

    I work from home- I do alterations, so it has been nice being able to set my own schedule. I did go back to working right away though. I work mostly at night while our DS is asleep, or playing with DH, so it gave me something to do rather than sit around thinking about it. My days are kind of slow except for appointments though, so I started going to the gym every day to help with bp and get back into shape before we try again. They have child care too, so it's really great for our DS to have interaction with other kids! We're going to start to TTC in Feb. Maybe we'll both be pg sometime in the new year!

    What kind of alterations do you do? For clothing? How'd you get into that line of work?

    Congrats on getting into the gym, the gym is wonderful. I used to be a 6-7 day a week gym junkie. It is addicting if you can find the time for it, and yes, when they have daycares that makes it great plus like you said the social interaction is wonderful for them as well.

    Oh, that would be wonderful if we both would become pregnant at the same time. Maybe this time go round we can share all our happy details rather than go through this again, plus i think we'd be good support for one another.

    This website has been wonderful for support and I do not know what id do without it.

    I do clothing alterations, but mostly special occasion. I took professional lessons from 9-15. When I graduated college, I didn't really know what to do next, and took a job for 5 years, before I finally got pg, and decided to start my own business so I could mostly be a sahm.

    I definately think we'll be good support for eachother when we finally get to have happy pregnancies! This board has really helped me too! I am so grateful for everyone on here!
