The Thread killer

[chrissa]

My thoughts are with both you and your wife.  You certainly have been doing a lot of running around.  Make sure you take some time for yourself otherwise you might get to the point that you 'hit a wall' which won't be good for you, your wife or your kids.

Take care Rob.

Rob, I am sorry to hear this.

I have had the miscarriage but I dont think I have had a D&C.

Its all a blur, years of ivf & my insides being cleaned out many times, dyes put though me & lots of vaginal u/s & egg collections.

None of it fun at all.

CP came from a harvest of 28 eggs, he was our 4th attempt, fresh embryos put back, 3 of them. We froze the rest of his batch, got nothing, then did several more ivfs, miscarriage & finally stopped.

It,always makes me sad to hear of people having trouble having kids..such alot to go through but worth it when it all works out... Iam very grateful I didnt have any problems having my kids.. Hugs to those of you who have been through so much..

[Halex]

Frozzie, cp was worth every bit.

Sad that we couldnt give him a sibling, but at least we can foster

[Frozzie]

Im certain he is H and sometimes life is hard to understand.. Who knows why no siblings maybe it was to do what you now do for friends and foster kids..saying that im sure you could,handle anything if you had more children or not.. Who knows and what a lovely life cp has... And how lucky he is to have u and u him..

Hally that is so sad and so unfair I'm really glad you have cp. He is a very special boy

I don't come in this thread very much but have just caught up with a few pages.
Sending support and healing vibes to you all Rob, so sorry to read this.
We are hear for you anytime.
Hope your wife soon recovers and that you can help each other through this.

Sorry Hally with what you've been through. Glad you have CP.

[Halex]

Yes cp is special, he is CROWN PRINCE CHARMING

He actually was given a crown at school this week for passing all his times tables & multiple tables

Took us a while to coe to terms with it, but at least we can bring happiness to other children.

 

[Amy :-)]

Well done to cp for passing his times tables! I was still struggling with them when I was his age

Hally, I think you are amazing and inspirational

[Halex]

Thank you Ames

Rob take care, and especially your DW too.

 

My DH said it helped to talk about this too..

Rob I hope both you and your wife are doing as well as can be expected. We lost our first baby at almost 20wks in Hawaii whilst on a holiday. 7 years later we returned to Hawaii where we had a little remembrance ceremony. In this time we had three healthy babies and a 7wk loss.

Dads do mourn that loss as well so share with your closest friends as well as your wife. Maybe something like planting a special tree or like we do a little ceremony (we float flowers off the pier in Waikiki each visit).

[obbie]

Kyton, totally agree.

Dads do feel it too.
 I still get teary, thing of our loss 10 years ago.

How are you and your DW Rob?
