Infertility

-~*IF + Loss Weekly Check In*~-

This is a weekly check-in for those of us who beat IF and got pregnant, but sadly have suffered a loss.  It is hard enough to face infertility, but adding in the fear of mc/pregnancy loss makes our journeys all the more stressful.  This check-in is just a way to provide extra support to each other.  If you want to be on the list just respond to this post with an intro and your EDD(s) and I'll add you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Give us a general update on your treatments or whatever is going on with you.

** QOTW:
What?s your favorite comfort food?

  • Update: beta Thursday, not expecting it to be positive. Not sure where we go from here.

    Qotw: if it's DH babying me because I feel miserable he will make this fantastic tea tray. We have a big wooden tray and he will make two tiny pots (I collect tea pots and many only hold a cup or two) with different flavors, bring a little sugar bowl, spoon and cup with saucer. He will bring it to me wherever I am and it's his little comforting ritual. I love it.

    If I just want basic comfort self administered, Campbell's tomato soup and saltines always make me feel better.

  • Congrats Trish! So happy for you 

    Rachel, I'll be thinking of you in the coming days. Hugs. 

    My update:  I had my D&C this morning. Woke up three times during it, but thankfully I remember nothing. I'm told it took a lot of IV meds to keep me down. Lots of sleeping today. Now we wait for a period and then we'll be back on the terrifying IVF horse.

    QOTD:  My comfort food is pasta in all its forms. :) 

    Baby girl Lila born 2013.

  • (((HUGS))) to all who need them!  

    Thanks ladies!!!!  I go in for my first u/s this Thursday.  Not expecting to see really anything yet.  It is still early.  I am beyond terrified of what happened last time.  Right know my EDD is 10/30/12. 

    QOTW:  My favorite comfort food is a toss up between peanut butter swirl ice cream or Herrs BBQ potato chips.  

    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • (((HUGS))) to all.

    Nothing really to update...we're on a break this month.

    QOTW: My favorite comfort food is ice cream - lots of it!

    Too beautiful for this earth
    BFP #4 - EDD 12/09/12, Lucille arrived 11/26/12
  • Can I join you ladies?

    Still dealing with trying to get my beta down, today had a very painful modified endo biopsy to p~ss off my lining and get things moving.  RE wants to do methotrexate if that didn't work - I am thinking maybe we just go to D&C.  I can't stand this much longer.

    My favorite comfort food... wine.  LOL  Ok maybe fries.  I also love pasta. 

  • I just wanted to say thank you everyone for your thoughts. I have been on a bump break for a few weeks between TTA, stress at work and the impending EDD. I popped on tonight and happened to catch the check in and was genuinely touched to see that you are thinking of me. I will try to get on more often and post support- you ladies are the best. 

    Big hugs to you all!
