Aw, I’m sorry. How are you feeling? I’m still a bit emotional, but I think I’m at the tail end of it and am starting to feel a teeny bit positive again. Sort of. ☹

I had an ultrasound a few hours ago to make sure I didn’t need a D&C and the tech said everything looked like it had taken care of itself.

Do you know what your next steps are yet?

I’m so sorry, **EmAnJ and Renee**. Sometimes I think that being able to tell so early isn’t a good thing.

I’m so sorry, both of you. Been there and it sucks, I know. Keeping you both in my thoughts.

And **StGermain** , I agree–if it weren’t for modern technology I never would have known about my two miscarriages.

Is it true what they say, that you get a lot hornier when you’re pregnant?

Thanks, I’m glad you’re doing a bit better. It must be so hard after trying for such a long time to get pregnant.

I’m feeling emotionally better today than yesterday. My midwife wants to run a bunch of blood work to see why this keeps happening, but I’m not sure that we’ll really get answers. It’s probably just bad luck. It’s just so frustrating. Anyway, take care.

Thanks for the condolences, everyone.

Welcome to the SDMB, **Pink Majik Trix** – but you may want to get a better sense of the way we do things around here before you start posting shit like this. Crude comments aren’t necessarily welcome in general, but when they’re directed at someone who just had a much-wanted pregnancy not happen, they are especially offensive.
