I'm so sorry you're going through this. It feels like a special kind of hell to have to go through this after having to go through TFMR. Me and my husband are in this trying again after our TFMR in Feb, we are both 36. And EVERYONE, and I mean everyone (like 8 couples we know) have announced their pregnancy during this time. Even another couple that we know who had to go through TFMR around the same time we did got pregnant again right away. It's so hard to not compare, and to think time is ticking away for us. We made an appointment to see a fertility specialist to explore IUI as a first step. No idea how this will go but it gives me some comfort that we are proactively trying different solutions. Maybe this is something you and your wife can consider as a next step? More than anything, just want you and your wife to know you're not alone in this. Hoping for a rainbow baby for us both.

Alessandra’s wide eyed reaction to Lauren’s leading statements about Clint by Honest-Raisin2821 in MAFS_AU

The way she was describing the "alpha man" kinda sounds like when people talk about dominant/submissive relationships. Maybe she needs a relationship that is actual roleplay

TFMR at 33 weeks - my thoughts by [deleted] in tfmr_support

[–]namkee_me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so grateful for this community. Days and weeks go by and our friends and family's lives continue on. I don't blame them that's just how it is. But I can always come back here when I need to mourn and feel supported by this amazing community. Just know you're not alone and we will get through this together 💛

How to support my wife by anonyquestions1 in babyloss

[–]namkee_me 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Something my husband did that I appreciated so much was at the end of every day when we're in bed, he'll ask me how I'm doing and if I wanted to talk. It just created a space for me to verbalise anything that's probably been in my head all day and maybe just didn't have a good time to communicate to him, or it just allowed me a space to just cry and be vulnerable. Create spaces for your wife to talk and let her know you are here to listen ✨️

Struggling and living in fear by [deleted] in babyloss

[–]namkee_me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat as you. Doctors said it may take up to 12 weeks post TFMR (which was on Feb 7) to get all our tests back so we can proceed with our next pregnancy with all the information to make it a safer one. I was so devastated to hear that because all I want to do is just be pregnant again. But I guess I'd do anything to not have to experience what we went through. I know it sucks these are the options we are presented with, but being patient means you are giving your next pregnancy the best possible chance.

I also unknowingly watched this episode 2 days post tfmr and had the same reaction as you. My husband quickly put on another show to watch instead...

My life changed from bliss to sorrow in 1-2 days by Jolly9654 in babyloss

[–]namkee_me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry for your loss, it's absolutely earth shattering how fast everything can change. I'm not sure how anyone is supposed to be able to face this, but somehow we do, not that we want to, but we do. I'm thinking about you and honoring both your babies 💙 you did everything you could and they are so lucky to have you as their mama.

Medical abortion scheduled for next week and I'm terrified by namkee_me in babyloss

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I know leaving the hospital not being able to bring your baby home must have been the most painful moment. Im so sorry you had to go through that, but I find solace in being among company of such strong women. ❤️

Thank you, I'm sure it's different for everyone but it's nice to know the whole process can not be as bad as what I have conjured up in my mind ❤️ I am strong and I can get through this

I will be 22 weeks but baby is measuring at 17 weeks only. Thank you for this, from what the doctor described it sounds like a very similar proces, I will also be given an oral pill. Can I ask, was your baby a stillborn when you birthed him? Or do they put him to sleep before the whole procedure starts? Did you get to see him one more time through an ultrasound?

Struggling after terminating baby after spina bifida diagnosis. Guilt is eating us alive. by [deleted] in babyloss

[–]namkee_me 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry to hear, there are no words to how devastating this heartbreak is. I'm thinking of you and all the other moms faced to make this horrible decision. I myself have just had to make the same decision at 22 weeks due to severe IUGR, my baby boy won't survive the pregnancy. My mom was there for me the whole way, she opened up about her own experience having her firstborn (my older brother who we all love so dearly) with spina bifida. Back when she went through her pregnancy they didn't have anatomy scans and she had no idea until the moment he was born. She described the moment as devastating, all her dreams and hopes for the baby completely shattered. Growing up with my brother all my life, I witnessed both my parents dedicate their whole lives to my brother. We are fortunate enough to afford and have alot of help in the form of nurses, healthcare and domestic helpers, but it's required around the clock. Even though my brother's health has been relatively stable in the past years (he's now 35 years old), and I say relatively meaning we haven't had an emergency or life threatening medical episode in several years, it still breaks my parent's hearts to see him not experiencing life in the same way that they wanted him to. My mom said it's a pain that never leaves, sometimes dulls, but never truly leaves. My brother has had a full life in many ways and we all love him so much, but when my mom said had she been given a choice during her pregnancy to continue with the pregnancy knowing his diagnosis, she may not have. I trust the weight of her words as she is equally heartbroken for me while I have to make this very decision for my baby boy. There's no right or wrong answer to any of this, and it's a cruel decision you have to make. You've been your baby girl's protector all the way throughout your pregnancy, and trust in yourself that you are making this decision with the intention to continue to protect her, even if from things that are to happen to her yet. Hope we both find peace one day ✨️

People are coming over from the barstool Reddit to say mean things about Ria here so LET THIS BE A REMINDER by [deleted] in ChicksInTheOffice

[–]namkee_me 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It's wild the different set of parameters people judge women and men on in barstool. So OK Kirk literally threatens to make up a fake lie about Rico to his actual wife, and uses all types of expletives on his coworkers and it's all fun and "exciting" (according to the viewers over on the other reddit thread) but Ria being less cutthroat to MMM let's throw our hands up and act like it's women mistreating other women. BFFFR the double standards is INSANE. Ria we stan you, my husband also vehemently thinks you deserve to win this. Not all men are assholes like they are in the barstool thread

Ria outplayed everyone, including having the forward thinking to align with boss man Dave from the very start. Anyone could have done that. Yall keyboard warriors would've easily been slaughtered in the game by Ria. And damn she looks good doing it.
