I can't really seperate them at this time. Hubby and I were talking on our way to church last night about the soul of the baby, and if there really was a soul there, since I was pregnant for such a short amount of time. We believe that life begins at conception, so there would be a soul there, but it's just weird to think about, and why God wouldn't allow this baby into the world.

Since this is the first time I actually got pregnant, it's a catch-22. I figured that I was one that would get pregnant, and remain that way, I thought I wouldn't have to deal with miscarriages. I pray that if I do, that this is the only one that I ever have to go thru.

We went to a bible study on Friday night and the discussion was about endurance, and one of the guys talked about his wife's pregnancy, and enduring thru it. It wasn't easy for me to sit thru.

Hi lovesdolphins

I am so sorry about your miscarriage. I have not suffered a loss like that - I cannot imagine what you and others here have gone through. I am praying for a healthy pregnancy for you.

I wonder if maybe God has a special role in heaven especially designed for your son or daughter. I would like to think that maybe God has taken some of our children especially to be with him for the whole of their life because he loves them and has special purposes set aside for them.

Blessings to you and everyone here. I've been away for a week so haven't visited here.

No news from me at the moment except that af started two days ago, so definitely not pregnant just yet.

Love to all,

Maharg

Our readings and sermon this week were about prayer as well. Our Gospel reading was seek and you will find, ask and it will be given you, knock and the door will be opened unto you. The sermon was about praying with confidence. For me it was very significant, because until recently I have not been praying for a baby...

I think for us it feels like it's taking longer than it actually is. I think that the Lord is asking me to trust in Him more...but that that isn't the reason why we're not pregnant. I think we're not pregnant because my health has been quite bad.

Yippee for the Catholic church - I love the way it is the same all over... I was in Mass too - same readings etc! Our priest made this point too: you don't get an answer to prayer because of your faith 9God ALWAYS answers); it is faith that allows us to see what the answer is. Interesting, I thought.

Just got back on today - I'm so sorry to hear about all the negatives! I will be praying for all of you - I know how tough it is. Lovesdolphins - If you indeed had a m/c, I've been there too. Mine were also that early. I didn't even find out I was pregnant until after I had lost it. It is so heartbreaking! Hugs to you!!

Good luck with the clomid - let's hope you get a BFP!!!!

I love the diea of God having a special role for all those angel babies. That's really beautiful. Sorry about AF showing up - was it as painful, heavy and unpleasnt as always?

My news: EWCM showed up on Friday (CD7) with my dh (again, just like last month); more deliberate BMS this weekend, 'cos by next weekend when he's back, it's too late. So I've now started on another 3ww (as if 2 weeks isn't ages!) Hopefully moving house in 10 days will keep me occupied...

Love and prayers to everyone.

Thanks annaapple - it was really thoughtful of you to remember the problems I have had with af. I have had tummy ache for most of the day, but not very bad at all, and because it's summer holidays (vacation) the blood flow isn't causing too many problems. It is heavy, but I have managed to find some much more effective sanitary wear so I've been able to be fairly active to a point.

I'm actually glad af came really. I was given painkillers by the doctor for my hip, and found out when I saw another doctor last week that they weren't safe to take during pregnancy, so I'm relieved really. I was feeling dreadful at the thought that I might have harmed my baby - but there wasn't one.

FertilityFriend re-analysed my chart when I put in the data for af starting and it seems that we bd'd at the wrong time. I guess we'll just have to do it a little more often!

I hope all goes well with you annaapple and that the 3ww doesn't feel too long. Praying for a stres-free move for you.

What a great thought, Maharg! I would love to think that is why He decided to take mine early...

Thank you annaapple! I need all of the luck I can get!! I started my tww today - I hope it goes by quickly! And I hope your move goes easily - I know how stressful it can be sometimes...

It's hard to deal with losing a little one. But I always find it comforting to think that our children will never know war, or pain, or hardship, and that they will never sin. God can protect our children better than we can.

You and your little one are in my prayers tonight.

I so want to start ttc'ing!!!!!!!!!

 

[Sign Of The Fish Burger]

Well it looks like DH and I are back to TTC. We took a 4 month break from temping/charting and the progesterone shots.

So you guys will be seeing more and more of me now that we are back in the saddle.

Welcome back - I hope it's a short stay.

I can't remember , but do you have PCOS, or something else?

Luteal phase deficiency

 

[lovesdolphins]

Luteal phase deficiency

That BITES - but at least you know what the problem is, and hopefully this round of progesterone will work ((HUGS))

You didn't happen to put off TTC for 4 months so as not to have a baby during Lost did you??? - teehee

 

[LovesEnduringPromise]

I have PCOS, hormonal imbalance, and hypotension. WHat are the chances of me being fertile......slim Im guessing
(Im seeing a doctor for this)

 

[annaapple]

Hi SotFB. Nice to meet you. I joined this forum during your time away. I hope this is your last month on progesterone shots! It si def time for some bfp around here. This last month has been pretty depressing for everyone.

I love your avatar btw Tried to rep you but it wouldn't let me. Go figure.

 

[jenrenee]

I also joined during your time away - so it's nice to meet you! I'm hoping someone has some good news soon - it has been awhile!

 

[annaapple]

OK, this is not stractly a ttc question (I think) but since you're the people who know the most about my body apart from my dh and myself, I do ahve a Q I'd like to ask.

My right boob is a bit sore (not a lot, but I'm noticing it, rather than not, which would be normal - I mean, how often do you think about your boobs durint he day?!). This morning I woke up and IT HAD LEAKED MILK onto my T shirt.

Context, I am CD 11, so the most pregnant I could possibly be is the day of conception (and only if the sperm survived since Sunday) but more likely nothing. I stopped bf 16 months ago, so it really can't be that.

Weird eh? Any ideas?

 

[PegasusOnFire]

Didnt you just have a babe?

yes about 11 weeks ago

 

[lovesdolphins]

very weird - are you positive that you are not pregnant?

 

[annaapple]

Hoping this is not tmi, Friday was CD7, and EWCM showed up right on queue (see above somewhere). DH and I did what was necessary to make babies during the weekend, knowing it was possible but on the early side for success. Today is only Tuesday. So IF I ovulated on the first day of EWCM (which doesn't happen, I think) I could now be 4 days past the moment of conception AT THE MOST. And let's face it, even in that highly unlikely scenario, it is still way to early to even have implanted, let alone start producing pregnancy symptoms. So yes, I suppose I could be pregnant, but I don't think that is what can be causing this. Does that make sense?

It's bedtime here, if anything strange happens in the night I'll let y'all know!

lovesdolphins - how are you feeling? You've been on such an emotional rollercoaster, I would imagine you are quite drained now. Still praying for you.

Today is my 3 year wedding anniversary, thought we would have children by now... DH only wanted to start trying four months ago, no BFP for us yet, I'm on cycle day 6 at the moment. We are staying in a jacuzzi suite on Saturday night to celebrate our anniversary, that will put me at cycle day 10, we plan to BD every day this month starting today and DH switched to boxers and we are both taking zinc, omega 3-6-9, multi vitamins, folic acid (4mg for me, 1 mg for him) and vitamin b6. I'm also on Weight Watchers trying to eat a balanced diet and shed some pounds which is supposed to help with conception. I'd like to lose 60 pounds, I'm 200 even at the moment and would like to get down to 140. So either I will get a BFP before then or I will reach a really healthy weight. If I get to a healthy weight before the BFP I will be much healthier and if I get a BFP before then, I will keep going with WW after baby is born on the nursing mothers program.

Praying for a tidal wave of BFP's this month. I'd like to "graduate" to the pregnancy forum and take some TTC alumni with me this month!

WHO's WITH ME?

Praying for a downpour of fresh faith and hope for all of us!
