Hi Ladies -
I was hoping that I could join your board. My name is Lindsey (28), DH is Zach (30), DS is Nolan (14 months) and we have three angels. The first two were twins, of which I lost the first on 11-18-07 and then the second on 12-5-07. I had a D&C at the end of the process. My third loss was a single pregnancy on 7-17-08, which I again required a D&C for.
I was blessed enough to finally be admitted into our Repeat Pregnancy Loss program here after 6 months of waiting, and once all my testing was finished, there was nothing glaringly wrong with me, so with my following pregnancy I was prescribed Prometrium (progesterone) and low-dose aspirin... and along came DS, for which I am SO blessed and thankful.
DH and I are TTC/NTNP, and all of a sudden all of my fears are coming raging back... so I thought I could really use a place to both offer and receive support while we go through this process. I very much look forward to meeting all of you wonderful women, and although I'm sorry we are meeting under these circumstances, I'm happy that there is a place where we can all be there for one another.

NTNP- not trying not preventing
Welcome to the board Lindsey, there is a lot of support here. This is my second tour through here, and really was my lifeline many times the first time. I also had 3 losses before conceiving DS and his twin who I lost. And now trying for #2, have had two more losses. And as soon as we started to TTC after DS all those fears did come rushing back.
Hope you stay is short!

Yep, these ladies are so wonderful. My Cora was stillborn May 2, 2006 and I've spent time here before becoming pregnant with both my rainbow babies. We're ttc again (first cycle), and honestly, even after 2 rainbow babies and no continued losses, it's still so terrifying.
 I'm so sorry for your losses, but you are very welcome here.

Thanks you guys all so much! I wish I could reply to each one of you individually so that I could tell you how sorry I am for your loss and heartache. No one should have to go through what we've went through.
Wishing you all BFP's and sticky, sticky beans!!!

Lindsey, I'm glad you decided to come here in looking for support during your process. I hope your stay, like all of ours, will be short and sweet Do you mind if I ask you about how the low-dose Aspirin therapy worked? Did you take it for the full cycle, or only after ovulating? And do you continue to take it during pregnancy? I look forward to getting to know you better!

Hello and welcome. I am so sorry you lost your babies. This too is my second tour here and although I know a few ladies from my first loss, getting to know the ladies I haven't met before has been wonderful. The support is fantastic and I hope you are a poas addict because if not, I'm sure you will feel the pressure to become one....lol It's all good fun.
You have a beautiful family

Welcome to the group! I'm sorry about your losses I don't have any rainbow babies, but i'm sure the fear is always going to be there...Are you taking aspirin and progesterone again this pregnancy? I ask because my doctor has me on 81mg aspirin, and she tested my progesterone, and will again, but i'm thinking about asking about taking progesterone in my next pregnancy...I hope you get your BFP Soon!!!
