How I did it: We didn't do it. We believe that God is the author of life. HE gave us this child (and our first child) in HIS timing! We stopped actively trying. We made the RE appointment, but ended up finding out we had conceived before the appointment happened! Read how I did it…
How I did it: It was difficult to start trying to get pregnant after a loss. It really took about two months of trying to get pregnant, but the rest of the time I just wasn't emotionally ready. With my son and also with the pregnancy that we loss, the anxiety mostly subsided once we saw the positive pregnancy test. It completely subsided once we heard the heartbeat. With this pregnancy it was difficult to go back to trusting that everything would b… Read how I did it…

We have a wonderful little boy who was born in February 2006. We started trying again right around his first birthday. Then in August 2007, I started having some health problems, and gained over 50 lbs before I saw my doctor in January. She said I could continue to try to have a baby, but I needed to work on getting some of that excess weight off. I had lost nearly 40 lbs by August. In September, I lost a baby before I even knew I was pregnant. The only reason I even knew I was losing the baby was because I was so in tune with everything, trying to get pregnant. My doctor told me that I could start trying again whenever we were ready. We never started using protection or anything. I haven’t ever charted or anything, but I’m thinking that will be one of my goals for this new year.

We have been trying since November to conceive #2. We have had no luck. I was taking progesterone and about to go for a fertility consult, but I had to re-evaluate what I believe about life.
I believe that God is the author of life and if I am to have more children, it will be in His time. No amount of “trying” on our part will put a life in my womb! We will keep doing our part (if you KWIM), but all the obsessing, charting, and trying to control things has to stop.
I am taking this off my list.

AFTER 10 YEARS….
I CAN’T BELIEVE IT! I’M FINALLY PREGNANT!
We’ve been TTC for the past two months now. Last month we got a BFN, but I wasn’t sad. This month is the month I was expecting our son. I’ve got mixed feelings about conceiving. On the one hand, I’d love to have a child. On the other hand, I am scared. However, the former seems to take more place in my life than the latter.
I was asked by a friend if I’d resent the baby if I got pregnant this month or would it be more special. I really don’t know. I think I’ll take things as they come.
Our gynaecologist gave us good news on the 29th of January. Seeing there was nothing in either my blood or the placenta which pointed to a reason for the miscarriage, we can start TTC again when we are emotionally ready. Now, time to get emotionally ready.
I have a 7 month old son and since he was only a couple months old I already wanted another one. I don’t know if I should go for it though. We are stable enough for it. I just don’t know if my husband wants another little joy in the family. Anyone got any tips or advise??? Cause this is drivin me crazy as hell.
We were expecting a child (who would be due in May), but at my 18 week 5 day check up, we found out that the baby had passed away in my womb. After labour was induced a day later, we found out it was a boy and named him Yannick. He’s now in Heaven with his three cousins and my grandmother. May he rest in peace and play well in the Lord’s garden.
