update

Hi Ladies,

Just thought I would check in.  I had my follow up from the d&c on Monday and  it went fine.  It was not really anything big except questions and answers.  I finally got to take my desired bath.

Basically I am just waiting for my period and then we can try again.  I have not ovulated yet since the procedure, so I am hoping that will happen in the next week. 

Every day is different.  If I have a day I don't cry, I feel like I am getting better.  I cried Monday, but I've been fine since.  I am not very social right now with family or friends.  I really only feel comfortable around my DH and DS right now.  I feel very awkward at work.  Today we had a department meeting and I just couldn't go.  There are three girls in my department pg (two are close friends and the other just announced and she is due around when I was due).  I am happy for all of them, but I am just extremely emotional and don't want to be around groups of people right now.  I know I am getting better and with time, I will be myself again.

We move in three weeks, so we are going to start packing this weekend.  I'm hoping by the time we move, it is almost go time.

 Thank you for all of your support, ladies.  It means so much to me.

Re: update

  • Danielle I'm glad to hear your appointment went well, I'll be praying your body gets on the track to start trying again soon! I can't imagine how trying on your emotions it is, but I can imagine in a stressful time it's uncomfortable to be around other people who aren't your day-to-day family. I'm glad your DH and DS are there for you and hopefully giving you lots of love and support daily to help you through this. It's probably a good thing you have the move to have something positive to focus on and you don't have to worry about being super careful about hurting the baby while moving too.

    Thanks for keeping us in the loop and lots of hugs and good vibes sent your way!

  • I'm so glad to hear that your body is healing and I hope that your spirit is on the mend as well. I'm glad to hear that you are cleared to try again soon. Will be thinking good vibes for you. I can't imagine how difficult it is for you to get through the day to day but i'm sure your DH is glad to give you the all love and comfort that he can.

    Good luck with the move I'm sure it will be fun to get to a new place to start decorating it and making it a home for your family.

    Thanks for checking in I know i've been thinking of you so i'm glad to hear from you.

  • I know in tragic moments like this, the body often tends to heal faster than the heart, and I'm glad your appointment went well and that you are OK physically.  As you focus on healing emotionally, your true friends and family will understand and give you all the time you need during this process. Lots of continued prayers for you, that your time will come soon to carry and birth a healthy son or daughter to bless your family.

  • I am so happy to hear that you are on the mend Danielle. I can't imagine how hard it must be for you emotionally right now, but I hope that the good news from your doctor has given you something to look forward to again. Perhaps getting ready for and actually moving will help you focus your mind on something else and help you move forward into another new part of your life.

    When you're ready to try again just know that we'll all be here for you no matter what happens and we wish you all the best.

  • All of the above! I can certainly understand not wanting to be a social butterfly and am glad you have DH and DS to lean on. Have you considered going to counseling to help deal with your loss? I would think maybe that would be helpful for you and DH if it's a financial possibility - I imagine that I certainly would need that kind of help.
  • I completely understand about the social issue. I know mine is nothing comparable to the horrible loss you went through, but when I found out both of my sisters were pregnant together in October, I couldn't even bring myself to call the sister that had just announced her pregnancy for like two days. I just cried in bed for hours. It was just really hard being the third sister and the only infertile mertile in the family. It was even harder after my oldest had her baby last week with me still not being pregnant, because I know it was the only opportunity that us three would ever have of all being pregnant together, and we had been talking about it since before my wedding. Just take all the time you need to heal yourself! Hopefully everything gets back on track soon, and you can start on the baby making process again.
