Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

I'm so sorry :( hopefully your cycle continues and you get another shot next month.
Sounds like perfect timing!! Amazing news! Prefect timing too! ;)
He's doing great. Been real fussy lately because of teething though. I still get really emotional doing stuff with him knowing I should've already been through all this before. Whenever I tell him I love him I start crying a lot. :(
He's a blessing for sure though. ??
Hopefully you won't need clomid, but either way I'm praying for you. You don't deserve such a struggle. And you have certainly been blessed with Kimber and that brief encounter with the foster girl you took in. You deserve to be blessed even more. ?
I'm sorry, I know you were looking forward to it. :(
I'm glad too that you got to enjoy a precious child in your home for at last a little while.
That's great! I need to start doing something I feel like a lazy blob lol
Yes, hopefully it kicks starts it again! Anything new on the foster care front? Or is it still at a stand still?
So update on his hearing:
He has mild to moderate hearing loss. He reacts good to high pitches, but not good to low pitches. And his nerve response is great. So the official diagnosis is that it's from the fluid buildup in his ears. He said once he gets tubes in his ears and they stay clear his hearing should be normal.
I'm glad your Easter went good. :)
We had a very small low key one this year. It was good though. :)
I'm sorry :( I'm sure it's hard and I pray that it doesn't stay that way. ❤
We're doing good. His hearing test is on the 9th to see the extent of his hearing loss. So, nervous about that.
How was your Easter? Do anything fun?
I can understand that. I'm hoping you get your miracle soon. ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss as well! Praying you conceive quickly and are filled with peace!!
Doing alright here. Waiting to see if AF shows up next week. I had a good streak! I'm hoping it comes back.
We are feeling like we might not conceive again. ? It has been hard TTC for so long since Kimber died and continually failing.
We won't ever stop hoping for it. But we might be stopping actively trying to conceive ?
I'm sorry, that sucks. :(
I hope so too that it continues to regulate for you.
Thank you :) he's definitely a cutie
Thank you Sugar Mamma. :)
My rainbow was born Jan 2015. We have a few ladies in the thread ttc theirs. Unfortunately we're all connected the same way and have been helping and supporting each other through our journeys.
It'll happen, the journey getting there is the hard part though. Don't give up faith ❤ keep us updated. :) Prayers for you.
I'm so sorry Katharine :( I was so hopeful for you
You never know. Still praying for a positive for you! You could've ovulated or implante s a little later than you thought. Fx!
Fx for Sunday! :)

My profile pic is black and white of me holding Liliana in the hospital.
Sadly Sarah it seems to happen quite often. It just isn't talked about much. :/
I'm so sorry for your losses. It'll get "better", it'll still be hard and you'll have some bad days, but they'll happen less often. I still have days where I just sit in my room alone and cry for my baby girl.
Ttc after a loss can be stressful and emotional. The time I got pregnant after losing my daughter it was the one month I actually allowed myself to have fun and enjoy myself. I absolutely believe that's what allowed me to get pregnant because the next day I felt implantation. Try to relax (easier said than done) and enjoy yourselves.
On fb there is a private group called S.O.B.B.S (Stories of Babies Born Still) it's full of women and the occasional man who have had a stillborn child/ren. It's been a safe place for many to share there stories, vent, and give support. They also have a sister group for ttc after having a stillborn baby.
Wow, ladies, my husband and I lost our first born son at 37 weeks in November and also just started TTC. I had a miscarriage the previous January, (New Years eve/day, way to ring in 2014, and it ended on a pretty s****y note, too). I read some of the posts, but wanted to share my story, because I couldn't believe it had happened to so many others as well! The last two times I was pregnant, we got pregnant the first time we tried, so it was devastating when AF decided to pay me a visit yesterday. Now we are just wondering if it's best to abstain from trying until I ovulate or just start trying again as soon as AF leaves and just enjoy our sexy time... We've never had to "try" before, really and don't really know what's best! You'd think I had this figured out by now, being 34 and all!! Best of luck to you other mamas!
Do you have IG or FB Katharine? If so you can add me if you'd like. :)
Did you get af Mindy? Or a positive?
Ooo fx Katharine!! Hope that witch stays away!
Fx!!
I'm doing good. Enjoying my baby while sleep deprived. Lol
Have fun tomorrow on your date out! :) Katharine
And nope, no sleep for me lol but for the best reason. Doing his pictures next weekend. I am crocheting him little outfits :D so excited.
Mindy how's it going? Any af yet? I hope not. Fingers crossed for you. Remember it only takes one time.
I'm sorry :(
Waiting is the hardest. Praying for you ❤
Doing good, a bit sleep deprived lol
You two are almost on the same cycle. I've got my fingers crossed for both of you!
Is it that you're not wanting to foster right now or that they don't have anyone for you?
Thank you :) they definitely share some traits. He looks a little more like me and Liliana looked a little more like my bf. ❤ Her stone should be done here soon, nervous to see it.
I'm sorry :( you don't deserve to have to go through all this waiting and trying constantly. I've been praying that you get your rainbow soon and I'll continue to do so. Hopefully your cycle continues to be regular.
How's it going on the foster care front? How are you doing otherwise?
I posted a picture if you wanted to see it. Just search under my posts.
Fingers crossed for you ladies! I'll be praying you get good baby news. ❤☝
Oh, I just realized that you wrote! I missed it!
Everything sounds so wonderful!! Praise the Lord!
I'm so happy for you. I know it was a rough start but what a blessing!
AF is due in 5 days...we shall see!!
I had some stomach pains/cramping randomly last night...maybe it's wishful thinking but it could have been implantation. I've never gotten period cramps like that.
I'm so happy for you!!! Baby Vincent has the best parents!! (And best big sister!!)
I'm so sorry I've taken forever to reply! He keeps me busy. Lol
We are home! Got home last night. He is doing great and is such a good baby! *knock on wood*
We have a few follow up appointments with some of the specialists in the next few months. I'll have to find a forum to post his picture for you to see. I'll let you know when I do. :)
How's it going with you?? Anything new?
Sorry been such a long few days.
We ended up getting lucky and they had a private room open up when we got here so we've been sharing a room with him and have been able to feed and change him. We found a bottle he liked and he's been eating so much better. He had some jaundice as well but looks like it's gone down. We had a neonatal dr, geneticist, speech therapist and plastic surgeon all look over him. They are all very optomistic. The geneticist is running a few tests to be sure but said it may just be a cleft palate were dealing with and not a symptom of a bigger issue. And the surgeon said he wouldn't need surgery until about a year old so it won't effect his speech. Also since his breathing isn't effected and he's eating good. She said he may need tubes in his ears later on as he is more prone to ear infections. We're waiting on a few test results, but if everything goes good we will be going home tomorrow afternoon!!
I'm praying for you Leah!!! I know it must be so so hard to go through this!!
But Vincent is alive! And he is just having a little bit of a hard time getting going!! He will get the help that he needs and be wonderful!!!
God has a plan, and I know it's hard and scary, but they have really doable plans to fix the problems that little Vincent has!!!
Pediatrician stopped by and he's sending the baby to the children's hospital a few hours away. He's not eating enough. He said he doesn't know how long it will be for, that they have a team who will look him over and see what and if anything needs to be done. He'll be going today. I can't stop crying. Why can't I just have a healthy baby. I'm so scared. Idk what to do.
I hope your cycle stays regular and you ovulate. Fingers crossed! Keep me updated.
Baby Vincent was born 1-13-15! They induced because my blood pressure was going up and down. I was 37w2d. They didn't use any pitocin or cervidil(?). Since I was contracting on my own they just broke my water and let it progress natural. Once I hit around 6cm I dilated so quick. No epidural for me and boy did that hurt! Lol
He was 7lbs 0.4oz and was 19". Only 3oz more than Liliana and both the same length. All the Drs kept commenting on how big he was for 37 weeks. Lol
He has a few issues. He has a minor cleft palate which is not external, but it's in the roof of his mouth, it's a small hole. It affects his feeding. He has good suckling reflex, but he can't create a seal, because of the hole, to have a powerful enough suction. He has to use a special nipple and bottle. And he takes a LONG time to eat. He also has micrognathia. It means small jaw. It makes it so his tongue falls back easily. He has to lay at an incline or on his side. Pediatrician wants to keep him a bit to make sure his feeding and breathing aren't too affected. But said everything seems to be looking pretty good. He has so much hair! And is so lazy and just sleeps. Haha
Today was an emotional day for me. I finally ordered Liliana's headstone. I'm actually a little excited to see it when it's done. I haven't been to her grave since the funeral, but I plan to go once the stone is placed. It's just too hard and emotional for me still, but I always feel so guilty for not going.
I'm so sorry :( I know how horrible it is to get your hopes up. I'm glad your cycle is regulating though, that's one thing on the plus side. I will continue praying and keeping my fingers crossed that you get a bfp soon. I know it's hard, but try to relax and have some "me" time. Or go out and have a few drinks to loosen up. I'm not a drinker at all, but the one month I let loose is when it happened this last time. I'm so sorry ((hugs)) ❤ ❤
I'm so sorry Katharine :(
I was so positive this was your month. I still have hope that it's just too early.
BFNs are devastating to get. Prayers ❤
Oh my gosh I'm so nervous and excited for you! Good luck! Keep my updated.
When do you test? I'm so anxious for you!
Last year's was worse for me. This year we didn't do much, not that I felt like doing much anyways. But it was as good as it could be.
How exciting! I'm really hoping this is your month. Would be such an awesome New Years gift! Prayers and baby dust your way! ☝?
How's your Christmas going? I hope it was as wonderful as it could be. ???
Ahh!! How exciting! Fingers crossed big time for you! :D
(Thread Closed) What
Are you ladies up to tonight? I’m sitting here drinking some wine debating on taking a pregnancy test. I don’t really think I’m pregnant, but I have a leftover one in my purse from my last pregnancy. I usually get my period at the end of the month around the 20th and I haven’t gotten it yet. I am only 6 months pp and only have had two periods since having Jane. The chances I’m pregnant are slim to none to be honest, but it’s in the back of my head.
Hi
I am into my 15 week now
But since last two days am not having good feeling....I just feel something is wrong inside wid d kid...all my symptoms r too less
Morning sickness is gone....Metallic taste of my tounge is also less....and I feel pain in my abdoman twice or thrice which is very minor though
What should i do i am very confused
Already have gone through 5 scans because of changing gynec
Just feel that untill i hear the heartbeat or see my kid i wont b ok....got sleepless nights
Oh husband!!
Here we are in month 5 of TTC #3. Last month my DH complained because he said he felt like I only wanted to sleep with him because I want to get pregnant. I told him that wasn't my only intention but it obviously is a goal of ours!
So I keep feeling these lil sharp pains on my right side. You do get pains like that before you start your period right.? Remember I had that dark brown spotting for a few hours last month on the 22. My period suppose to start today.
So i get how 40 weeks is 9 months of pregnancy cuz not every month is exactly 4 weeks but im confused how its divided. I got pregnant the beginning of may so the last week of September ends up being 20 weeks which is 5 months (may june july aug sep) but im confused how the last 4 months (october, nov, dec, jan ) also ends up being 20 weeks cuz how does the first 5 months equal 20 weeks and the last 4 months equal 20 weeks cuz im due beginning of february.
He's doing great. Such a little fatty lol and he's rolling all over now. ??
