@E I understand the dire money situation. Every cent count? When will your test?

@Flamingo how is it going mama? I was wondering how many days we are apart?

@Dragonfly what a scary situation. I really thank you for your service and sacrifice. Your life is at risk everyday. Please be careful. I have also heard of the 2nd strain and things getting even worse.

@Alex I'm here for you. New cycle, new hope don't give up.

AFM more prayers ...that is all I can say. They are deploying the National guards and not letting people from NY in here because it is way worse there. First 2 deaths too and more and more sick people. Breasts are heavy. A bit if nausea in the morning and fatigue. I have decided to stop testing. I am putting complete faith in God that this baby is real and pregnancy will be safe and baby healthy. DH and I think that we are having a girl. The nickname is seahorse. My parents know. Will tell his folks on Monday once blood tests confirmation and rest of both families and friends at 13 weeks like we did with 1st. My pregnancy then was high risk. I believe in miracles and praying for all the Mama's e ttc and expecting.

I’m so happy for you Lalou and Flamingo! Praying for your happy and healthy 9 months!

Praying for everyone getting ready to test, and for everyone starting their new cycle for BFP’s!

AFM- received the news of my MMC at my scan this past Tuesday. Have taken the medication to begin miscarriage twice, but nothing happened. I have an appt. tomorrow to discuss next steps. I’m hoping to try the medication one more time, or to just wait for it to happen naturally over the D&C. I’m nervous to see what my Dr’s suggestion will be. I am eager to complete this process and begin the process and renewed hope of ttc again. I’m so ready for this third and final babe. Trying hard to focus on the hope the future brings, rather than the heartbreak and pain of carrying my lifeless baby and waiting for the inevitable loss.

@alex so sorry to hear thta af came. Ugh. FWIW my chiropractor says that having a messed up pelvis can cause things like blocked tubes and generally restrict blood flow around there, have you every tried chiro?

@lalou I have one cb visual test and 1 cb digi. Not testing until the evening of 15dpo - the day AF is due - I always start in the morning so if I haven't started by dinnertime I will test. I just don't want to waste any more money on tests!

Afm.... My husband's company is having a big meeting today to discuss where things have to go during this crisis. He works in electronic security (alarm systems) and is the Head Technician in the company - it's a small business, only a few years old. Things are looking grim with only a few service calls booked for the week so far. If he gets laid off we will be able to get gov't help, but it won't be enough to pay the bills. There is talk of banks/power companies etc. Deferring all payments for 6 months, but of course our bank just so happens to be the only one who hasn't made any promises in that regard. Typical lol.

We are putting all our faith and trust in God. He led the Hebrews out of Egypt and through the red sea, and He will lead us through our times as well. We were born in is time for a reason! We can merit much if we bear our trials with grace and trust. I truly believe that things like this are a chastisement from the Lord as a result of all the evil in the world, and Lord knows there is evil in high places - even in the Church! We are praying very fervently about it all, and praying especially to make reparation for the evils that have brought this down on us all. Not trying to push my religion here, just sharing where we are at spiritually! We are all in this together. Pray, hope, and trust in Divine Providence. We will make it through somehow!

@Dragonfly- I hope you can work from soon! If your job can be done from home you should be there. My tests are getting darker! I’ll probably be done testing tomorrow as that will make a week. My symptoms were similar to last time, cramps every day that were mild and short and fatigue.

@Alex - I’m sorry to see you are on CD1. I’ll be keeping track of you and praying for your miricle babe.

@lalou- We must be super close in days! I’m guessing I ovulated around March 13th or 14th but can’t be sure. I think an ultrasound in a few weeks will help get a more accurate due date then my LMP. Good luck with the blood tests!

@K+N’smama - I’’m devastated that you are going through this. I hope you get some resolution soon.

Hello ladies

@K+N like Alex said there is no word. No one should go through what you are going through. I m praying that the meds will work soon and, you can properly mourn your baby and start healing spiritually and physically.

@E I completed understand wanting to wait. It s a good call. Sorry about the financial situation. I look at this crisis as the signs in Egypt with Moses. The world has become so evil especially towards children: slavery, abduction, torture, prostitution, murdering. And also as an African and catholic, I too believe that not only we have maddened our ancestors' spirits but also all that evil not only towards human but animals and nature, is what we are enduring now. Let's keep our faith in God and keep on praying even harder.

@dragonfly fingers crossed

@Alex stay brave

@Flamingo I ovulated between March 14-16 so yes we will probably have edd. How exciting!! We are both in our 30s and 2nd baby. Have you had blood tests yet?

AFM going tomorrow at 6:30 AM with protective gear at the clinic for blood tests. Boobs are itching and seem bigger. I seem to have more appetite but also mild nausea in the morning. Trying to drink more to lessen headaches. I'm also trying to catch up on my master classes and online teaching resume tomorrow. I'm trying to rest as much as I can too. I'm just so tired all the time now.

Hi ladies! Miss you all so much. I’m so excited to see al of these BFPs!! How wonderful and all my love, support and prayers for those still waiting for your BFP!

My due date is Friday. Going in Wednesday night to start induction due to AMA. Physically everything is fine. Baby girl is perfect and I have minimal discomfort. I could stay pregnant forever I think if I didn’t have to pee every hour....

Emotionally I’m a wreck. DH lost his job, we cannot afford our bills. Unemployment will help as long as it lasts. I’m freaked out about the virus and getting sick. We have banished all friends and family from the house including my step kids. My parents won’t meet their grand daughter for who knows how long. We are walking into a hot bed of disease on Wednesday for our induction. We live in a major city with a growing number of cases and hospital workers rationing ppe. I don’t know how all three of us can possibly come out of there uninfected. I begged DH to stay home and stay healthy and let me labor on my own. He refused. I thought it would be good for at least one of us to stay healthy. I can’t sleep from the anxiety. Our future is so uncertain. This is the second time DH lost his job since we have been married. Last time it took 8 months to find another job, and he took a pay cut (completely drained our savings). Now who knows if anyone will be hiring and when. We have only built savings back up to half of where it was before we drained it last time. What if I come back from maternity leave and there is no company or job for me to go back to? We will lose everything and I won’t be able to give my daughter everything she deserves. What if one of us gets sick she dies?

There is only so much comfort I can get from prayer in times like these. I hope you all are staying stronger than me. My love you to all.
