  • @stashattack I hope you can buy the farmland. We live in a small farm and it’s been the best thing ever. 

    And thank you that does help. 
  • @bumbly_b23 I really hope it’s coming soon. Mine was 51 days and it helped me a lot to get that cycle behind me. I hope it will be healing for you when it comes. 

    Introduce yourself and anything you think is important: Spontaneous loss at 6 weeks in Aug 2021, MMC D&C at 12 weeks in Feb 2022

    How are things going? What is something that you are struggling with and/or what is going well? Feeling pretty blah about TTC right now. Feeling like this might not be happening for us and trying to figure out how to let it go. 

    Any testing coming up/any recent results? Going to see the RE for testing in early April to see if it makes sense to continue trying

    Questions? NATM

    This is my 5th loss. This one is particularly hard. 

    Status: waiting for a d&c- there was no heartbeat at our nine week US. Measuring 6 weeks, 2 days. 

    How are things going? What is something that you are struggling with and/or what is going well? Nothing is going well. I struggle with hyperemesis during pregnancy so I am still violently ill. 
    Tw- death

    My MIL passed away on the same day my pregnancy stopped growing. She has one last grand baby to hold in Heaven. 

    So we are grieving on multiple levels right now. I just want it over so we can move on and get some closure. 

    Any testing coming up/any recent results-  labs today and Monday to confirm my levels are dropping. If they aren’t we have to wait a week to do a second ultrasound before scheduling the d and c. 

    Questions? 

    GTKY: What’s at the top of your bucket list?
    we are moving to Boston in June! Moving back was actually the top of my list. I lived there for several years and left in my mid twenties (priced out.) 





  • @charmedlifex3 Congrats on the move back to the east coast! I'm so sorry about you loss and the loss of your MIL. That's so hard. I hope you can get your d&c soon so you can be closer to closure.

  • @charmedlifex3 I’m so sorry for the loss of your baby and your mother in law. That’s a lot to be grieving all at once. The waiting is so hard, and walking around still pregnant with an unviable pregnancy is a special kind of hell. Whatever the conclusion, I hope that it happens quickly so that you can start to move forward. Sending you lots of love and support. 

    (Unrelated, but I moved from Boston to the cape a few years ago, so hi soon-to-be neighbor 👋🏼)
  • Labs confirmed the loss today. I’m just “glad” there isn’t anything else going on to leave us in limbo longer. 



  • I'm so sorry. It feels better to have that closure and be out of limbo but the news always sucks.

  • @charmedlifex3 I’m so sorry for your loss, and for the loss of your MIL and feeling so physically awful through this.  I hope the hyperemesis eases up quickly.

  • It’s done. Hopefully healing is next. 
    And my job fired me today for exhausting my FMLA leave (my daughter has a rare disease) - I was planning on quitting next week, so this isn’t a tragedy (in fact - now o can collect unemployment) but it’s just really awful of them. Like. Who does that? 



  • @charmedlifex3 I’m glad you have it behind you and I hope it brings you some peace and an avenue ti move forward when you’re ready. 

    And excuse my language here, but honestly that’s fucking cold. I don’t know your industry or employer, but they are a POS. Collect that unemployment but also maybe consult a lawyer because that seems not only unethical but illegal. 
  • @maggiemadeit exactly! Like I’m not actually sad about losing my job, but I’m angry about HOW a they did it.
