New here : Hi !

Lindz253 · #1 October 29th, 2011, 06:14 PM

Hi everyone! Im Lindsey and I have two beautiful girls, Riley will be 4 in December and Alexis just turned 2. I had a miscarriage at 16 weeks in August with a baby boy. My DH and I wanted a boy so bad and the surprise loss was such a shock. I went in for my 16 week appt and there was no heartbeat and I went to the appt alone. Definitely the shock of my life.

Anyway, this is our first month TTC and I am so nervous. I really hope I can come here and gain support from you ladies because Im scared. They docs said they couldn't find a reason for my loss so you know how your mind wanders and I just don't want to think negative thoughts my entire next pregnancy. I want to enjoy it in case it is my last.

Thanks for reading and I look forward to talking to you all

I'm so sorry Lindsey about your loss. I can't even imagine what a 16 week loss would feel like.

I've been on this roller coaster since last January/February. Found out that our baby had died in January at nearly 10 weeks and lost the baby in February at nealy 12 weeks. We've been trying for these past nearly 7 months now with one failure after the other!

Hope that you will soon get another bfp with a super sticky baby this time around.

Hi, Lindsay. I'm Adrienne (32), and DH is William (31), and we've been TTC our first since July, with an early loss last cycle.

I can't imagine how difficult your loss must have been, but your positive attitude is absolutely inspirational. I hope you get your sticky BFP very soon.

Thanks Adrienne! Im sorry for your loss and I hope you have your first little munchkin very soon! I think I am about 4 DPO too so maybe we can both have a BFP together

Love your siggie! I need to get a new one. I havn't been on the board for a while and my girls are a lot older than my pic!

Would be so cool to join the July DDC together! Definitely get a new siggy! After the loss last cycle, I decided to get one. Fresh start, you know? Oh, your daughters are absolutely adorable.

I am so sorry for your loss.

My name is Jana and DH and I are TTC #4, we would like a girl. I have had three m/c and not sure why. I am fairly new myself an these ladies on here are SUPER sweet and supportive. I hope you get your rainbow baby soon!

Hi Lindsey. I'm Ashley, fairly new here.... So sorry for your loss. I had a very similar situation, I lost my little bean at 11 weeks, bc no heartbeat.

I was also alone at that appointment, worst day of my life, thus far. We are still TTC #1
I love this place, for the support and advice... hope you get you BFP soon!

PS ... Your little girls are so cute!

Sorry for you loss

I can understand why you are so scared. I think most of us are and then more so the farther along you lost your LO

But yes, everyone here is very supportive

Welcome Lindsey. I am so very sorry for the loss of your baby boy

The ladies here are amazing and super supportive. Please jump right into posting with us and I hope you get your sticky BFP quickly.

Thanks ladies for making me feel welcomed. Im sorry we all have this in common but Im so greatful for a place like this. None of my close friends have had a miscarriage and I don't think you can grasp the feeling of having a loss (or losses) until it has happened to you.

Welcome! I am Valerie and just joined about a week ago myself after an early loss. These girls are very supportive and I agree that it is nice to be somewhere where others understand because not very many people in my real life understand.

Hi Lindsey and welcome! I am so sorry for your loss! I hope that you find this board to be as amazing as I have. I would be lost without the women here! I wish you the best of luck TTC! Definitely feel free to post any questions, vent, or anything. We're all here for you!

Hi Lindsey, I am ss for your loss! I just wanted to say welcome and I hope you get your BFP soon! Welcome to the board!

FL Mama · #15 October 30th, 2011, 07:56 PM

Hi, Lindsey! Welcome! So sorry about your loss. I just lost and delivered my 16w5d old baby 13 days ago. I'm not TTC yet, but I'm excited to get started again when my doc gives me the go ahead. I look forward to getting to know you.
