Think I wish Someone had told me after my 1st M/C - Page 11

Maggie ~ I think I usually copy all of what it says for EZ Board into my sig then just be sure you hit save. I can't imagine nothing would show up. Sometimes it will just show up the HTML stuff. Also, you could try adding it to your sig like a picture. So you copy the direct link by itself. Hit the mountain thing for picture and paste the link there and it should work. I'm glad you're putting up a ticker! That way we can see exactly where you are!

harleymaggiemae · 05-07-2009, 06:07 PM

Thanks Roxy - I think it worked!

Now - the real question is how long are my cycles! I haven't had a non-induced period since my first m/c!!! I put 28 days and we'll see what happens. Here's hoping to the big O this month.

Harley - Awesome! I'm excited that AF showed and you're off to a new cycle. I'm coming right behind you and Kristina. Tammy, when do you think you may be Oing?

AFM - I was pissed off last night and into this morning. I came home to have a claim from my D&C paid incorrectly. They paid it at an out of network benefit level due to no authorization. (DUMB A--ES!!) I called this morning, and one of my many comments to them was, "If you check the date, you'd notice that it was the same day that I had a miscarriage and a D&C. Did you expect me to get off the surgeon's table just to ask what lab he was sending my fetus' tissue and blood too?!!"" Needless to say, the claim is reprocessed and will be paid correctly. Now, just when I'm doing a bit better, a whole can of worms is reopened.......

Wow Jenn, I'm sorry one thing keeps happening after another. I'm glad the issue is resolved.

Maggie ~ It looks great. See that excess it's copying over for you? Just go in and remove exactly whatever that is at the end of the HTML.

Afternoon ladies- cant belive it is friday already although i am greatful it is. Its been a long week.... I should be oing soon. i am on cd 8. i will start Ov tests on the 10th and pray i catch it. I feel linda funny today i know i am not pg or oving but my boobs hurt and i am just exhaused and dizzy. maybe my sugar is out of whack who knows. Roxy thanks for the soy info i think i am going to pick some up but it is to late this cycle because according to the alterni med thread you need ot take it days 5-9 and i am on 8 already so hummm. did u ever try it? what dose? do u think it worked? i am nervous to add more meds to my body.... but i am getting desperate-lol

Jenn that sucks, dealing with the insurance people is never pleasant. i just got my bills from my d&C paid and that was in feb because medicaid had things all screwed up. i had to go over my workers head to finally get it worked out. but at least we both got it figured out before we got pg again. cuz its gonna happen.....

harley are your periods pretty much normal even though you have to use something to induce them> like flow and length? my periods were never really totally out of whack i just dont think i 0 all time. my ovaries hurt but that could be due to cysts. i know i should temp i just have no discipline when it comes to that.

afm-dh asked me when i expected to 0. he has never asked me that.. when i told him next week sometime he rolled over and started snoring-lol....hello i like sex whether i am Oing or not-lol.....older men suck sometimes...I know Mothers Day will be a sort of sad time for us all i just wanted to say I love you guys and i appreciate you sticking with this thread. I know we will all get what we are striving for. We cant always choose the path that is chosen for us but it takes courage and determination to endure this journey we are all on. I am very Thankful to have met all of you and i so appreciate your encouragement when i am having a bad day.Happy Mothers Day to all of you. Our babies are in heaven looking down and smiling on us. Someday we will all be together again!! baby dust to us all

R0xyg4l · 05-08-2009, 02:52 PM

Tammy ~ I have a bottle of it in my med cabinet. I never actually tried it but was considering it. Once I saw a thread saying you could use it with Clomid with higher success rates... but once I bought it I couldn't find that info anymore. So I have it in there for backup in case I have issues with insurance or anything. From what I've seen on several message boards it seems to work pretty well. lol your DH is silly. Thank you for the encouragement.

tcrock02 · 05-10-2009, 11:26 PM

Hi ladies. My weekend was prettyfull but great anyway. We just got home for Cracker Barrell!!!YUMMMMM....
Hope today went well for everyone i know for me i had a little of a rocky start this morning. i talked to my friend last night on the phone who got pg a few weeks before me.she was talking about how things were going and complaining about getting big so fast-blah blah. i know she didnt mean anything by it because she also has PCOS and struggled for years before having what is now her 4th child...It was just tough. so this morning i was thinking about how big i would be if i was still carrying my little angel and how my new Mothers Day outfit would have to been maternity... just took me back for a moment thats all. but dh came in after getting my breakfast and loved on me to make me feel better. i know he didnt know why i was upset but it didnt matter he made me feel better anyway just by being there. i am so thankful for a dh that can discern when you are having a moment you know---
so i am on cd 10 tday but had EWCM yesterday but i know that is pretty early to OV i think? what do u guys think? i have more than one patch sometimes...i have also noticed that i am bruising kinda easy do u think that is from the asprin. not that i will stop taking them because i can work with a bruise over losing another baby you know....
ok well i am off to bed it is gonna be an early day for me. nite ladies

R0xyg4l · 05-11-2009, 02:35 PM

Tammy ~ I'm glad you have a good mother's day. I LOVE Cracker Barrel! I worked all day... bleh! I haven't experienced any bleeding due to the BA. But thats not that I've noticed. I did a week or so after I started taking it bump my leg really bad and the bruise seemed to last forever and popped up fast. I'm in the same boat as you, I'd take just about anything to avoid another m/c. 10 DPO seems a bit early to O but our bodies are all sorts of confused so it could happen. I took an OPK this morning... let me go look at it and I'll tell you where I am..... There's a line but it's still faint. I think I'll probably O at the end of this week sometime.

AFM ~ My appt with the RE is only a week away!! I'm very excited. I took the day off so I could just focus on it since I figured I'd be exhausted from working a double the day before and waking up early and probably a little emotionally exhausting.

Tammy -

PCOS II Study & Provera question

I just saw this on the TTC thread and thought about you. Apparently the poster is participating in a PCOS study about Femara v Clomid. But this could be a great way for you to get free healthcare. She said they monitor you via u/s etc and they are all free. Check it out!

harleymaggiemae · 05-11-2009, 05:30 PM

Tammy - I think this is the link to the trial. But there's a lot of them - check them out!

wannabamama · 05-11-2009, 11:19 PM

Wow Harley! That's awesome news. Tammy, hopefully it is a study that's offered in your area.

Ladies, I hope you all made it through yesterday with some sort of sanity. I thought I was OK, until a choir selection in church. The choir is one reason I love going to worship service on Sunday mornings. THe ministry of music just touches my soul. Anyway, some of the words to the song are:....."So I say to myself, let go let it be..... Oh Lord, your will, is what's meant for me. Your word is true, and it will last........" I believe the song's title is "your will" THe soloist sang with such emotion, and I thought about how I know I must accept God's will for my baby He only knows why, but I couldn't hold my tears back (as much as I tried too) I bolted out, and one of the ushers is an older woman in the church who knows about the m/c. SHe just came right after me, held me, and prayed right there for me. I was hyperventilating, and caught by surprise. I'm so glad that she was there. (DH didn't come to church, and DD was with her cousins and aunts from Saturday night). THen, I pick DD up from school today and my DD's teacher says some of the other kids were talking about being big brothers and sisters, and my DD says "My mommy had a baby in her stomach, but the baby died. But that's OK because daddy's going to put another baby in my mommy's stomach - then I'll be a big sister"

On a positive note - This is week three of BCP's. Next week sometime is when AF should be showing her face and the injections begin again. Yippppee! I think....

tcrock02 · 05-11-2009, 11:53 PM

Wow lot going on here-getting pretty exciting!! i have ovary pain and ewcm today too--what the heck? my body is such a wreck. but i did raise up my metformin by 500 mg and started my other meds last month which makes almost a month i have been on them. so maybe that is doing something. man i hope so.
wannab- i am sorry you had a emotional mothers day. but God was definately speaking 2 u. maybe for comfort... there will come a time when it will be easier for you to talk about and easier to except things that happen around you but give yourself time to heal. this is still a fresh wound. i am sending you hugs and know that God is with you all the time even at home and he will give you the strength you need to endure this storm and come out victorious. he has a way of sending those people who are there to encourage us - and its always right on time.
harley thanks for the info i will definately check into it. i did go today to the family clinic, they help people that have no insurance. it is not top care but at least it is something so i am greatful for that. i will only have to pay 10 for office calls and thats a blessing because my last check up there for my metformin was 150.... but we qualified for a program they run...thank you jesus...
roxy- i did a ov tonight just a little bit ago and it was neg- also i went to walgreens today to check on soy and they had it on clearance for $2.64 can u belive that. so i got 2.then i went to check out and they were running a special and one was free-God is looking out for me today. im excited for you are the re i know it will be a good feeling to have someone take a fresh look at things. my fingers are crossed for a great out come. what day is it exactly so i can pray for u that day?
afm-today i am very optimistic about this cycle. i am not giving up!!! in addition to TTC My daughter picked a wedding date 8/29....my 1st to have a grandbaby and get married. boy how they grow up so fast. she was 12 when we adopted her and i wish i had gotten more time to have her to myself before i passed her off to her dh 2b. but she is a great mom and i know this is a good decision for her. but i know i am gonna cry so hard when i see her walk down that aisle. thats the stuff dreams are made of.I am off to try to get dh to bd-lol...night ladies

tcrock02 · 05-12-2009, 12:01 AM

harley you know whats funny i already sent a email to this study and ever heard anything from it. so i just sent another request to a different email-wish me luch and thanks for thinking of me

harleymaggiemae · 05-12-2009, 11:31 AM

Tammy - I hope something works out for you. How great would that be to get free medical care as part of a study - that way you could be more closely monitored. There were hundreds of studies they were doing on PCOS, so you might even find another one that suits you. I just thought this one could have potential since it didn't seem to be too far from home! And that's awesome about dd getting married! AND - finding the soy on clearance -- must be your lucky day! I hope you O this month and catch the egg (and it sticks!).

You asked about my cycles the other day - I do not do anything without medicine (i discovered after my first m/c). I was on bcp for so long that it never occurred to me. But, yes, my cycles were pretty regular. Once I got on bcp years ago, my periods were much more manageable with minimal cramping and light flow.

Jenn - Sorry you had such a tough day. I realized I'm the only one of us that doesn't already have a child! I was a little disappointed that dh didn't get me a card or anything - he just didn't even think about it. He didn't mean to hurt my feelings but he did. I hope you find some comfort. And YAY for being on your last few days of bcp.

Roxy - hey! Hope things are going well for you.

AFM - I have my sonohysterogram today. That's the last thing I need to do for my testing. I get all of my results on the 21 - and I'm kinda freaking out! I'll be visiting the RE on CD 15 - so I'm going to see if he can do an u/s to see if I even have follies this month. I think I'm going to try to catch the egg, but I'm also kinda nervous about what the results might be. I'm really praying for good results and a good plan moving forward.

Have a great day ladies!

R0xyg4l · 05-12-2009, 01:30 PM

Heya girls just dropping in real quick. I'm very exhausted and about to get my DD off to school. I have contact dermatitis all over me. It's very itchy and feels like I have little things constantly crawling on me. It's SO annoying. So I stayed up last night and went to convenient care to get some meds. Now I'm sleepy! Tammy ~ My appointment is next Monday the 18th. I'm hoping for further testing. 6 days away! I think I may be Oing soon. Today I have a lot of discharge but am yet to do an OPK. Dh and I were suppose to BD last night but I was a wreck from all this skin stuff. TTYS!
