BYOB: I Want a BFP This Christmas!!

Hi ladies!

Well, it's that time again! Lets kick things off the same as usual, with an update...

My name is Joy
Dh and I are both 28 (for now... he will be 29 in Dec)
we've been together almost 10yrs
Got married and bought a house together in 2009
From Canada
I'm currently a housewife, but hope to soon be a stay at home mom
I got pg back in the summer of 2010 then m/c'd at 8 weeks
We ttc for 8 cycles after the m/c, (10 months)
We have a nursery room all set up waiting for baby
I got my BFP on June 30th 2011
Started spotting on Aug 9th 2011
Went for an u/s Aug 12 2011 @ 10 weeks
Baby only measured 8 weeks with no heartbeat
Started bleeding Aug 18th
Since then I have been rushed to the hospital 3 times for excessive bleeding (once via ambulance cause I passed out)
I have had 2 emergency D&C's, 2 Folley Ballooons, 3 blood transfusions of 2 bags each, & a Hysteroscopey. (Not to be confused with a "HysterECTAMY")
I have FINALLY stopped all bleeding & colorful discharge as of Nov 8th 2011!! (Yay!!)
AF will prob be here around the end of Nov-Beginning of Dec
I probably wont be able to start activly ttc again until February, but believe me I am counting down the days!!
I used opks, chartted my bbt & took folic acid, plus, started baby asprin every day until my bfp, and between Af and O I took Evening Primrose Oil and I also used preseed when we bd'd!
Right now I am just taking an iron suppliment once a day.
As soon as my cycle starts again I plan on chartting my bbt, and re-starting my prenatal vitamins
Then once we are back to ttc I will add EPO & preseed
I am hoping it wont take me another 8 months to get pregnant this time around!

Wow thats getting to be a loooooong into!!

This is the best group out there - these ladies are all amazing!! They are my online bffs and I love them all! Dont know what I would do without you ladies!!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
Joy

Hello Ladies,

My name is Jenn
I am 24 DH is 25 and DD is 4
We had been ttc for just over a year but decided today to take a break from it as DH just got laid off. Waiting for him to get into another job before trying again.

Emma: Im so sorry, still praying for you everyday!

Joy: Thanks :D I figure that its pointless to have a ttc countdown now, so I will have a xmas one as its my favourite time of the year!! So happy to hear that you havent had any bleeding lately. I too hope he finds a job fast and we can get back into ttc and yes twin BFPs would be amazing!

My name is Nicole, 31 (32 next month)
Dh is 35
DD is 2
Live in Washington state
Had a m/c at about 9 weeks about 12 yrs ago
Married for 3 1/2 yrs
We were ntnp since about January then seriously ttc since May. Got pg in July. Found out at our 12 week appt that our lil' one passed. It's been 6 1/2 weeks and still battling this m/c. Had a D&C but apparently didn't work. Currently trying to finish it with drugs. About to start my 4th rounds of drugs. Ugh! So ready to move on!!!

Jenn, I'm so sorry about your Dh's job! What a horrible time of year to get that news! Praying that he gets a great job soon! I'm not planning on ttc until Feb, so maybe Joy, you and I will get TRIPLE BFP's
together!!!!

Kristine, glad they were able to clear those tubes! Praying for your BFP asap!

Emma, I pray that this season will bring you a Christmas miracle!!!!!

Hello all!

My name is Cristine and I'm Canadian eh?
DH and I are both 28.
Been TTC for a year now.
Got pg in February 2011, m/c a few weeks into the pg.
No BFP since. Doc checked everything and I'm functioning fine.
DH is going or blood work and SA. Hopefully all will be great and we get to announce we're pg at Christmas.

I love these ladies! They keep me from going insane and permit me to vent, worry, obsess etc without judging!! !

I am currently waiting to O. Hopefully we get our little Christmas miracle! We need some and we need to move on to CMP!

Hi ladies!

Cris - Keeping my that you'll be announcing your pregnancy this Christmas!!

Nicole - I really hope things stop for you soon! I know all to well how horrible it is when this drags out!! Hope this round of drugs does the trick!

kristine - I am glad to hear t you had your surgery! Did they tell you to wait before ttc again, or have they given you the go ahead?

Jenn - LoL, Christmas is my favorite time of year too!! I really should switch to a Christmas countdown rather than a countdown to when I can ttc since I dont actually know when that will be!

Emma - I know in my heart that you are meant to have another baby. Doctors have been wrong many times before & they ARE wrong about you... ivf is not your only option, & you're gonna prove that by going in for a prenatal checkup soon!

AFM - I had a very aggrivating day.... lets just say it really isnt fair that some women get to be parents while those of us who would be great Mom's dont.

On a lighter note... still no more bleeding, so I am happy about that! Honestly I am so happy for EVERY day I go without bleeding! I am really looking forward to getting back to normal..... but I am really fearing af! I think my past bleeding experiences have scared me for life!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
Joy
