hi there
when i joined this site i was hesitant to join this group.
i thought it could possibly jinx my future pregnancies.
i am in a same sex marriage and our ttc started in feb 2006....my wife decided she was going to try first...we did an at home "turkey baster" method, and got pregnant on the first try.
Riley was miscarried at 14 week...my little baby had no legs....
we decided to take time of from ttc....
i decided that i would try next with help of a fertility clinic after being told i would never have children.
i have only ttc twice, and got pregnant both times.
first time was jan 2008 where i miscarried triplets in feb 2008 at 5 weeks and 6 1/2 weeks.
i then tried again in june 2008 where i was diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy at 7 weeks.
my levels had plateaued and they never did find out where the fetus was located on ultrasound, but they definatly did not find it in my uterus.
i was treated with methotrexate 115mg on wed july 30th.
because of this drug, i am not allowed to attempt to conceive again for at least 9 months to a year for fear of birth defects and what it could potentially do to me, there are negative side effects.
i will spend the next 9 months figuring out why i can't seem to hold onto a pregnancy.
i have defied everything they have told me that would or wouldn't happen.
i took this last pregnancy very very hard.
i did my cycle in june, did my insemination june 24th and got AF july 7-12...i started fertility meds again july 11... on july 19 i found out that i was pregnant.
i feel like we are being emotionally tortured and taunted with the only thing we desire for right now.....a family.
RIP Riley....my triplet beans.....and.....my latest little one.
your mommies will never forget you!

My friend is making Angel Baby key chains and they are amazing and so sweet (and affordable!) If you want one, add her/message her! They're only $4 and that's with shipping. She's a super sweet girl! She's also willing to make customs if someone has something in particular that they want to remember their little ones with. I ordered one this morning and am waiting to get it.

what a great group, thanks for making it.

I had an unplanned pregnancy when I was 17 and miscarried. At the time I was told to be grateful and that it was better that I didn't have a baby at 17 while in High School so I haven't really had a chance to fully talk and grieve until recently. I blamed myself for years and I'm so glad to finally have people to talk to and found out that it wasn't anything that I did wrong.
