Newbie to GD!

[Aussiechic]

Hi ladies,

I have just joined GD and am looking for support and information from other women who are currently TTC.

I am 33 and my DH is 34. We already have two beautiful boys 4 and 6 and are dreaming of a baby sister to complete the family.

I had a miscarriage earlier this week after TTC for 4 months....going through some form of the 'baby blues' at the moment. :tissue:

I have a medical condition that can be worsened during pregnancy so we can only have one more child. My DH and I would desperately like to have a little pink bundle...crossing fingers and looking for any advice. :fingers:

Welcome! We have some great strategies for swaying here and a large IVF community. Lots of info in the forum!

Hi I am sorry to hear of your loss and hope for the best for you in the future. I too am an Aussie TTC pink and maybe we can keep an eye out for each other and give some Aussie support :)

Hi 3blue?pink,
Thanks for the message...I appreciate your support! How long have you been TTC your pink bundle? Are you using a personalised swaying plan?

Hi Aussiechic welcome to the forum :)

Hi 3blue?pink,
Thanks for the message...I appreciate your support! How long have you been TTC your pink bundle? Are you using a personalised swaying plan?

I have not started TTC yet I am waiting another 8 weeks before we try. I haven't got a gender dreaming personalized sway plan but I have a lot in place like diet, supp's, PH balancing and much more I have only just signed up here as a member but I have been studying about gender swaying for awhile. What about you what have you got planned for your sway and how long do you think it will be until you try again?

Hi 3blue?pink,
I have been trying the 'unproven' gender swaying methods until now....I guess they are more like old wives tales than anything else! I have just purchased a personalised swaying plan to assist in conceiving a pink bundle. Looking to try again once my normal cycles resume (we have a little bit of pressure because my youngest son turns 5 in March and we are only allowed to have one more child). Hoping for some guidance and plans to assist in the personalised sway plan!
:baby2: Thinking positive pink thoughts xx

Hi Aussie
I haven't been on here long enough to figure out what is suppose to be in the personalized sway plans. I will have to have a good look around when I get home (back to my PC and not on the iPhone)

Hi Aussiechic, I've just joined a few days ago myself - also a local girl, also said goodbye to belly-babe 3 last week and waiting for bleeding to stop and hoping for normal cycle to resume soon so can start TTC in the new year. It's nice knowing there are a few of us all starting off the journey together - hoping it is a positive one for all. xL

Hi lollylegs,
Thanks for your message of support...it's been a long month! I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Have you found yourself going through crying bouts when you haven't really felt that sad? That's all I seem to have done this weekend... :/
When are you planning to TTC again....and are you trying for a pink or blue bundle? It's great to know we're not alone in this... :happy:

[LacePrincess]

Welcome! I think you'll be very pleased with your personalized plan. :)

Please join us pink swayers on the girl sway boards, you'll find lots of support on your journey there.

Hi Aussiechic, I'm also an aussie and just joined. I am also (day)dreaming pink. I have ds1 nearly 3 and ds2 4months. I am 35 and DH 36. Between my sons I had a mc too, I'm sorry for your loss. We are planning to ttc in the next few months but look forward to getting inspired from the stories here. Good luck!

[Aussiechic]

Hi twobeautifulblues,
Thanks for your message...great to hear you are trying for pink soon too! So sorry to hear about your mc. It's really tough to go through. How long did it take you to fall again after the mc?
Are you going to sway for pink? Happy to be your buddy through the journey... :cheerteam:

[twobeautifulblues]

Hi Aussiechic, we had a break for 3 months after mc although I wanted to try again ASAP. It took that long for my cycle to get back on track and I also think I needed time to grieve. The sadness used to creep up from nowhere but it did pass for me when we started trying again. I got my BFP after 2 months. I am hoping to sway pink around April 2013. It will be great having the support!
Good luck, look forward to sharing news!

Welcome aboard! So sorry for your loss, m/c is so hard...

Hi Aussiechic,
Yes, it's really catching me by surprise sometimes - that first week was just like post-birth day 3 blues. But then sadness overwhelming me from time to time - sometimes it has felt like hormone imbalance, and sometimes about the emptiness if that makes sense. We also have the added (?) issue that many of our family were not yet aware and we have decided to keep it private due to other family circumstances. As my psychologist explained - it's a whole grief process that will flow through for weeks / months.
We (I??) am thinking earliest March, through July but need to get thinking through the holidays about the details (which month/s will be good, what strategies). Fortunately my appetite has eased off so that might help with our pink sway.
I'm so hoping this will be a good year for us (-:

[Aussiechic]

Hi Lollylegs,
It's a horrible process to go through with the grief. I seem to have good days mixed with bad days....if I'm tired I tend to be tearier! If you ever want to chat I'm going through the wild emotional swings atm too. Hoping that things will look up for us soon xx I'm on the FB group now...so might try to catch you on there! :HH:
