Hey Guys - Sorry 4 Da Long Post! Posted: 02-26-07 23:57pm
So I haven't been on this site for a
pretty long time now. Just to give you
guys a heads up...
I tried OVULEX for a month (in
November/December) and I definitely saw
the difference in my O-days ... had more
CM and such... and ... I did get my BFP
for X-Mas on December 11th 2006 (4 days
before my AF was suppose to show up). I
had my first appointment on January 15th,
and saw my little one's heartbeat, but
couldn't really see anything else, since I
always have a hard time seeing anything on
the ultrasounds. My hubby and I were
beyond excited, and were getting ready to
make plans for the great future as a
family of 3. Our dreams became a
nightmare when during our 2nd appointment
(February 12th) the OB couldn't find the
little heartbeat anymore, and after 3
different ultrasounds, they declared my
baby as miscarried. The baby supposedly
died right after our 1st appointment, as
it never really grew in size. We were so
devistated & still cannot believe this
has happened to us. I know that 1 out of
every 4 women have miscarriages, but you
just never think it will happen to you,
you know what I mean? My hubby almost
fainted and got so pale that the doctor
had to ask him if he needed any cold rags,
because he was white as the wall behind
him. Thank God he was sitting down. I
didn't hear most of what the doc said to
us, as I was sobbing constantly.
I had my pre-op that Wednesday (February
14th - yeah nice Valentine's Gift) where
they put in a small string of seaweed
(which expands while inside the cervix
overnight) to help dilate naturally. It
gave me such bad cramps (which is normal
with something like that) that I vomitted
once and cried for an hour in the
bathroom. My D&C surgery was on
Thursday (the next morning), and it took
about 10 minutes to take everything out
and another 1.5 hours to wait for me to
wake up from the anasthesia drug (I hope I
spelled that right). Afterwards I felt so
empty and I could not stop crying and got
so depressed, that I had my mom fly in
from California to help us out around the
house and be here to support both of us.
My hubby and I talked a lot about our
feelings and we still do, as we don't
wanna keep anything hidden inside. Most
couples do and get divorced, so the last
thing I wanna do is have that on my
hands.
We're going to our follow-up appointment
on Wednesday (February 28th) to see if
everything is all cleared out. I stopped
bleeding this morning - THANK GOD! But
not before I passed a pretty medium sized
clot while peeing (sorry .t.m.i.) And I
can't wait to have sex again, as me and my
hubby just get so horny (sorry - t.m.i.)
that we can't keep our hands to ourselves
anymore. We're probably gonna wait 2
cycles and try again for our little nugget
we lost 2 soon - as I know that it will
definitely come back to us one more time
all healthy and ready to be brought into
this wonderful world of love we will give
him/her (or them - who knows).
So we're just staying positive as I know
that mid April isn't so far away after
all, even though it is hard to be around
my friends that are pregnant or trying to
get preganant and already waiting to pee
on a stick. Not that far from now - it
will be M.Y. turn once again!
Thanks for letting me vent and let you
know what happened. The more I talk about
it the more easier it is for me to accept
my situation.
So thank you for listening - or in this
case reading!
Luv ya All!
~Aggie~

Sorry, hun.
I know the pain of loss only too well.
I'm curious as to why they gave you a
general anaesthetic though for a d&c.
normally that's an outpatient procedure
with local anaesthetic only - I've had a
couple or so

i'm so sorry. it truly is one of the most
devastating things to have to go through.
my story is similar to yours (baby died at
8 weeks, didn't find out until 13 weeks)
so unfortunately i know what you're going
through.
you seem to be doing relatively well
though, and that's good. it's good that
you and your husband are able to share
your feelings and you're planning on
trying again soon.
i've never heard of that seaweed thing,
that's interesting. i didn't have to do
anything in preperation for my d&c.
