Trying for #2

June 03, 2008

This is my story...I have one beautiful child who was conceived the first time we tried. That was 3 years ago. I was pregnant in January 2008(again on the first time we tried) and had a miscarriage at 9 weeks. Since then, this its been 2 months of trying with no luck. I don't know why it was so easy and then things changed but they did. So I hear I am looking for support from other women who share the same experiences as myself.

June 03, 2008

Amy my first was on the first try and second is heading towards 2 yrs...we've had two chemicals along the way...and no explanation as everything turns out ok with both me and dh. Good luck to you and there are plenty of women going thru the same thing! :)

June 03, 2008

It's nice to know other women go through the same thing although I wish there weren't! It sucks! I can take a test on 06/12 so just waiting to see what happens then. In the meantime just trying to stay positive. Best of luck to you.

I am so sorry for your loss Amy. I hope you got a BFP on your test on 06/12.

If not then maybe try this out and see what happens. Nothings set in stone on this journey but it's no harm to give it a go.

It is a plan designed for women who had suffered a miscarriage, have no fertility issues and are ttc.

Best of luck and lots of baby dust to you.

Christine76 and AKB...

Hi, thank you for your kind words. I am 4 weeks pregnant. My doctor is monitoring my progeterone right now and I go back on Tuesday so she can look at the numbers again. Just praying for a healthy pregnancy and baby.

Wish both of you the best as well!

That is just fantastic news. . .I'm over the moon for you and your other half. . you've just made my day!!

Keep me posted on your progress and wish you every happiness in the world.

Hi Amy - I just wanted to say how pleased I am for you that you are pregnant again. I have had two miscarriages, one miscarriage I had some six weeks ago, but I have been blessed with two lovely children who are now 13 and 10. My husband and I were not planning on having another baby, it just happened, and when i miscarried we were devastated. Now I have a yearning for another baby but I don't know if it is for the right reasons? I wish you all the luck in the world. :-)

August 27, 2008

Sorry for your losses. I hope you get your BFP soon and have a healthy 9 months. Please keep me updated.

So far, so good with this pregnancy. I have a son, so I'm excited to be having a girl although it didn't really matter.

August 29, 2008

AKB - HI! How are you? I thought I read you just got a positive?!

Yes, I'm 14 weeks pregnant. We are having a girl. So far, so good with this pregnancy. I've been in for multiple ultrasounds and the baby looks good. I go back on 09/16 for 2nd trimester screening.

September 03, 2008

HI Amy,

Just checking in to see how you are. Hope your pregnancy is going good for you and your little girl is behaving herself in there lol.

September 03, 2008

Hi Christine,

How are you?

I'm doing good. 15 weeks as of yesterday. I can't wait til my next appt. just to be reassured everything is still ok. I don't think I'll ever stop worrying!!

Thanks for the note. Thinking of you and wondering how you are doing TTC...

September 04, 2008

Ah I would be the same if I was you but you will be fine so try not worry. . . you will have that beautiful little bundle in your arms before you know it

Still not pregnant!!! I am 4 days late but have tested and bfn's so just waiting. Got abnormal cell results in my pap exam yest so it would be better if I am not preg as I would be worrying constantly if I was. So I'll get that sorted out and then start again. It's prob for the best at we have been crazy ttc for the last 1 1/2 yrs with no break so it will do us good to stay away from it for a while.

Oh Jane my niece got great results today and she is now low risk. . we are going over there for a little party after work!

I'm so happy :)

September 12, 2008

Thanks Amy. I am sure everything will be fine as you are past the 12 week window. Try to keep a positive outlook and focus on what your new baby will bring to you and your family. Maybe this will be my month, sure hope so. I know this is only my second month of TTC, but I worry that I was just lucky the first time. How long did it take you to get pregnant?

September 12, 2008

Jeri,

With my son and when I miscarried I was pregnant on the first try. This time, I waited a month (per my doctor) to try. I didn't get pregnant the 1st month we tried but did the 2nd month. I used OPK's and the calendar at mymonthlycycles.com.

You are young. You should get pregnant relatively soon. Are you using OPK's? The calendar was all I used last time and I got pregnant. When is AF due?

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you that you get a bfp soon.

September 12, 2008

Amy - I am taking my temps for the 1st time this month and I think I ovulated on September 10, due to temps and "O" Pains. Since I am new at the temp thing I could be wrong. AF is due around the 24th. If I do not get pregnant this month I plan on trying OPK's to make sure I am ovulating. How old are you? I feel like I am running out of time, what if we waited to long. I really thought last month I would get pregnant for sure and when I didn't my mind started thinking the worst. My son will be 5 in February. I know this is only my second month, but my mind is racing.

Jeri,

I am 34 (will be 35 when this baby is born). I had my son at 31. He turned 3 in July. I don't think you are running out of time! I don't know about you but when I had my son I was at a good place in life. I wasn't ready for kids any younger honestly. I worked my way through college and I feel more prepared now in so many ways. I'm fortunate enough to be able to stay home with my son. I wouldn't trade that for anything!! Enough about me.

I have never done the temping. I would say if it doesn't happen this month for you to use the OPK's. You can get them online pretty cheap and they worked for me. You should also try the calendar at mymonthlycycles.com. It's free and it will tell you when to expect to ovulate based on your monthly cycle. Perhaps it could help you with temping. I think you can also chart this on the calendar as well. Nonetheless, I swear by the OPK's! I hope you get a BFP this month. Do you test early or do you wait to see if AF will arrive? If you test early, when will you test? Please keep me posted!!

Thanks Amy,

I was almost 26 when I had my son. I was able to babysit at home until he was almost 3, then I went back to work P-T. M-F 8-12. Not bad. As of June 13th, 2008 I have been at home with him full-time and plan to with the next baby. Hope that is soon!!! I finished college in 2000, but I am still paying on those never ending loans. :( My husband and I have been married 8 years this month. We were highschool sweethearts...went through college together...got married in 2000...and 4 years later had our son. I am a nester and I always knew I wanted to be a SAHM.

Anyway what site did you get you OPK's?...Last month I tested early, but this month I will probably test closer to AF that is due on the 24th. I just do not want anymore dissapointment. Thanks for the Baby Dust...I hope this is my month!!

September 13, 2008

I hope this is your month too! The site I got the OPK's and early pregnancy tests from is www.Early-Pregnancy-Tests.com. You can buy as many or as few as you want.

Your schedule isn't bad at all. Nice that you are at home now. Fortunately, I don't have student loans because I worked full-time and went to school full-time. It took me 7 years to get my BA! It was all I could do at the time. My husband I have been together for 12 years and married 6 of those years. We met when I was in my early 20's. What state do you live in? I'm in California (southern). I'll be checking back with you around the 24th to see if you get a BFP :) I'm sure we will chat before then though!!

September 13, 2008

Thanks for the info--I live in Kansas. Hope all goes well with your pregnancy. Take care and I am sure we will chat very soon.

September 13, 2008

Thanks! It was nice talking to you and we will be in touch. Fingers crossed for you :)
