TTC After a Loss

~*~*~Ladies in waiting*~*~*~

This is group designed for all the ladies in the various stages of waiting after a loss: waiting to miscarry, waiting for AF to arrive, waiting to TTC again, and waiting for BFP.   I post every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon.

 

*Since this process is such a true test in patience, it is nice to have the support and friendship of other women going through similar experiences and emotions.  As people go through the heartache of losses, I have found either it strengthens their relationship with God or it makes it harder.  I would love to help you in anyway that I can to find the strength.  I found that it really helped me pull through.

 

*If you would like to be added to the list please post current TTC status. There will be a daily question, a place for prayer requests and a daily inspirational verse.  I purge this list every now and again, so if I?ve added you before but you don?t see your name now, just let me know!

 

******************************************************************

Good afternoon ladies! 

 

Congrats to JuneBug060609 and VeilSdeGTO who both got their BFPs! (Any others, I know there was a huge wave!).  Congrats to you ladies?we?re so happy for you here and we?ll be praying for your sticky babies!  Have a H&H 9 months!

YAY for trishiepoo who is back to actively ttc!  Hope it goes quickly!

 

Welcome to lanoue25 and phillygrl16 who are both new to the group.  I?m sorry for both of your losses and all that you?ve been through.  I know you?ll find some great support within this group and I hope that you find our graduate?s list very soon!

Re: ~*~*~Ladies in waiting*~*~*~

  • Besides bump? lol

    I hang out with my horses, more so when its warm, but I like to ride and drive and fuss over them. They're my giant dolls and they can't complain so I can do whatever I want to them... mostly they enjoy being fussed over too so it works out. Way better therapy than the stuff you pay for!

  • Thank you for updating this list every week.

    In my spare time I love to read. I always carry a book with me in my purse so I'm always reading something at any given time. I also really enjoy cooking. I love searching for new recipes and trying them out. It's a hit or miss but when I find a great new recipe to add to my collection I rejuvenates my "kitchen time."

  • I'm waiting to O.

    Besides working (because my boss is too cheap and has one person doing two people's jobs and now I have to do O/T) I go skiing on the weekends, reading and writing, work out, and work a little bit from home on ChaCha.  It's just a little bit of money that I get but it goes a long way when it's in my savings account!

    5/25/2014: CP at 4 wks 3 days

    Because of the great "Snow"vember of 2015, my medicated cycle was cancelled.  However, we were blessed with our little rainbow baby due on 8/14/15!  Baby J had other plans and decided to make his grand ole entrance on 7/4/2015!

    Surprise!  Our little girl entered this world on 12/8/2016 after her eviction notice was long past due.  Our little turkey baby turned into a snow baby!

  • I am currently in my first 2ww since my loss. I am surprisingly not obsessing, YET!

    QOTD: In my spare time I love to do arts a crafts. I have a small tutu boutique on etsy (it needs work b/c it has been seriously neglected for months) I also just learned to knit so that keeps me busy and reading is fun for me too!

  • You can remove me from TTA! I am so happy to be back to TTC as of last week. I'm waiting to O now.

    QOTD - I have been in school (evenings and weekends, after my full-time job) so I kind of had forgotten what spare time was. Now that I'm taking a semester off, I feel like I have insane amounts of time. So far I've been catching up on my cooking and baking as well as going through girly TV series in my Netflix queue at an alarming rate.

  • I'm waiting to try again.  Tomorrow is my day 7 bHCG and appointment to find out if the second shot of methotrexate is working.  If not, we may have to face surgery.  I feel like the bleeding over the weekend and the lessening of my pg symptoms is a sign we're headed in the right direction, and we'll get 'good' news tomorrow.

    Then we just have to wait for my numbers to come down, and AF to arrive.  Looks like we'll only get one chance at having a baby while I'm 32, the age of both our mothers when we were born.  For some reason, I was really looking forward to that.

    During my free time I play with my 4 doggies and love to cook/eat great food with DH, who's a fabulous cook in his spare time.

  • I'm new here, please add me to the list under Waiting for AF.

    QOTD: I do love to read, but since I went back to school I haven't been doing much reading for pleasure. Lately my favorite thing to do is cuddling up on the couch with DH and watching movies. We own waayyy too many DVD's so we have a pretty good selection to choose from. : )

    QOTD;  In my spare time, I spend time with DH, family, and friends.  DH and I get together with a bunch of our friends almost every weekend for game night-soooo much fun!  I also like to read in my spare time and bump of course!!

  • Thanks so much for doing this list - it is a lot of work and I realy appreciate it so much. 

    Update:  I called and scheduled my suppression check yesterday and then I ended up getting AF today (which I was waiting for to call in the first place).  I am on for the suppression check for tomorrow and if all goes well, I will start stims on Friday.  ER most likely to be the week of February 20th.  So things are moving forward!!! 

    QOTW:  I don't seem to do a lot lately, except bump!!  lol.  I teach CCD once a week (Catholic Sunday school); I belong to a women's civic club and I attend their meetings once a month, plus the board meeting once a month.  I also edit and write their monthly newsletter.  So I do keep pretty busy with things.  But, when I am at home I do lots and lots of vegging out.

  • I am back to waiting to O. [the waiting is so hard for both parts...]

    QOTD: I haven't had free time in a long time but I like to read...

  • I try to spend time with my dogs and my DH. We've been working out together four or five times a week and it has really brought us closer. I very rarely have free time- that's what 60 hour work weeks do to me!

    Repeat hysteroscopy scheduled with Dr. I on 6.16.14. Great progress. Unbenched!!!!
    Discussing actively TTC with DH after the heartache of the last year. We're both reeling.
     
    Please, please, please. 
  • Thanks for checking on me!  Tomorrow's appointment has nothing to do with my surgery - I'm having a fasciotomy.  I used to run, a lot, and developed plantar fasciitis 3 years ago.  After exhausting all of my other treatment options, including several experimental treatments, I am finally having the surgery done.  That is on Thursday.  My appointment tomorrow is just to discuss what to do about the Clomid (continue or try something else) and if I need to see an RE.

    QOTD: I like to watch TV, go to the gym/work out, and read.

  • Thanks so much, this is wonderful! Can I be added?

    I'm waiting for AF and don't know when she is due thanks to my idea that I didn't want to chart this cycle. *kicks own butt*

    QOTD: If I'm not bumping, discovering B-grade movies on Netflix, or hanging out with the two furry things that took over the house, I'll pay H some attention (jokes).  And at least once a week I make plans to go drink coffee with my girlfriends, whether it's coffee or something coffee free like chai.

  • My appointment went well.  We have a year long plan which helps out a lot.  My OB is very supportive and actively supports me and my TTC journey.

    QOTW:  I like to be on the internet way too much!

    No change, still waiting to O.

  • Love the inspirational verse! 

    QOTD:  I sew and crochet in my spare time (when I have spare time!)  My sewing machine never gets put away!

    I'm guessing I'm O'ing right now, so I should be in the 2ww soon!

  • Still waiting til May...less than 3 months to go...I hope I can make it!

    The months of watching my ovulation with no trying and still some MF, are driving me bonkers :(
