Yay Smudge - congrats hun! that single step for you is probably more important than a lot of the others you've taken cos you conquered your own demons!!! well done sweetie!
woo hoo - things have officially started again for me - back to the alarm going off every 12 hours to remind me to go snort some drugs!! i can'te believe how, in a few short weeks, i managed to forget how terrible the synarel tastes!
BG- Thanks for that, yeah hopefully I have a good amount and my follies aren’t being so stubborn this time. I did have some ovary pain yesterday and the day before, so I suppose that’s a good sign. Hope you’re doing as the Doc said and relaxing, and getting a bit pampered by everyone! Woohoo for starting the syneral! It does taste foul doesn’t it?? BW- Go the wide slice toaster!!! Re: the heat pack, it couldn’t do any harm and if nothing else will relax the muscles. Ohhh, I hope we are at the same place in the cycle so we can be tww buddies and stop each other going insane! I’m on my 7th GF injection atm. Sorry the hormones are giving you such a hard time – no wonder though if your body isn’t used to that much action. I’m having a little bit of a hard time, snapping at people when I wouldn’t usually and getting tense and stressed a bit too, when I really don’t have much to get stressed about.
Goodluck with the BT tomorrow. Summer- Ditto what Smudge said! Smudge- I’ve been stimming for 7 days now. Thanks re: my bub, she is a sweetie and my little miracle that I’m so grateful for. A bit of a handful too atm!! I’d love to have a chat if you want to contact sushee. Yay on doing your own injection! I actually prefer to do it myself, I don’t think I could trust my DH to stick a needle into me!! Oh and Mel’s right, the faster you put it in the less it hurts – thanks Mel.
I had my Postie (clothes) party today and bought heaps. The problem is, my weight fluctuates so much atm that I never know what is going to fit me when. So hopefully they all fit!! ….Although, I won’t mind if they don’t fit due to getting pg…
Yay on the postie party being a success Carrie - i used to sell it, and have heaps of friends who still do, so i have a wardrobe almost entirely postie - have clothes ranging over about 4 sizes i think - got some pants that are way too big, so i should get rid of them, but keep thinking what's the point - i'm gonna need bigger clothes when i get UTD anyway! my poor wardrobe is so full though
They're great clothes!Hopefully you WILL need those bigger sizes soon then!
I'm off to watch 'prison break' then to bed. We've got an early morning for the scan.
have a great night all.
Thanks, Nic. I feel kinda about being so strung out over it last night. Just shows that the little things are really getting to me at the moment. Starting to feel much more relaxed now. Dinner was a non-event so I'm munching yet another hot cross bun and slurping down some chocolate milk to take my tablets with. I think I've got a hot cross bun problem. What ever will I do after Easter?
So not looking forward to the early start tomorrow. And I still can't remember to take my temperature in the mornings! My acupuncturist wants me to start charting again, but the last two mornings I've jumped out of bed before hand. She wants me to do it so she can see what's going on when I hit the luteal phase. I guess identifying when ovulation occurs isn't going to be an issue at all, so hopefully I'll get back into the swing of charting very soon.
BW - don't fret about your Hot Cross Bun addiction - it's one of those things that can hit anyone!! for a while, mine was mandarin slice choccie biccies - all it took was one to cheer me up after a bad day at work! if it makes you feel better, i say go for it!!! and as for the after easter bit - buy some and throw them in the freezer - it will at least get you through the next few months!!
EJE - Congratulations on the BFP, get lots of rest and look after yourself!
BW - Look after yourself and like all the other girls said don't stress you will be a great mummy! We all feel crappy sometimes especially on all these drugs and its the time to look after ourselves NOT doubt ourselves!!
Twomums - Good luck with the TWW not long left, fingers crossed for a great result!
Briggsys Girl - Congrats on being back in the saddle.. hope everything goes well
To everyone i missed sorry and good luck fingers crossed for everyone!
Well not much going on here until Monday when we have our scan and trigger injection.. fighting a bit with DH at the moment.. the clomid makes me cranky!!
Feeling a bit stupid here. I know I should call the clinic. I've been sent home from work because I'm in too much pain to stand up, and had a complete melt down and started bawling in front of the whole staff room. I was doing ok until I was accused of having a multiple choice question with no answer, when there was one! I'm in pain and feeling nauseous, and I know I should call the clinic but feel a bit silly doing so when I know that they will be calling me back about my blood test results later in the day anyway.
gah! And it's all because the nurse I don't like was on this morning for my blood test! Not that she did anything to upset me then, but I know she's there... she normally only works Fridays, but is covering for someone else who is on holidays at the moment.
Probably way TMI... I'm slightly constipated because of my iron tablets at the moment. I just took myself off to the bathroom, and the pain was relieved a little. Unfortunately, shortly afterwards, I started getting the same sharp pain, but this time on the right side where it was on the left all morning.
I've called the clinic - the nurses are currently unavailable, but will call me back as soon as they can.
Ah yes... those hot cross buns... I'm wondering if the effects of metformin, carbs and iron tablets could be responsible for the current symptoms. Of course, I'm still half expecting them to say there was no response to the puregon and it's all in my head. I just can't convince myself that the pain/discomfort in my ovaries, and the fact that I burst in to tears with very little provocation is simply not normal, and must be a sign that something is happening!
i say it's hormonal overload - definitely!! the stress and emotion of this whole ttc journey is enough to have all of us bursting into tears at the slightest provocation (i'm really good at that one!). don't let yourself dwell on the negative thoughts - youlve overcome so much so far, and this cycle seems to be working up to this point - think positive thoughts hun!
aw BW - i don't know what else to say at this point - i know exactly what you're feeling - that's what happened on my last cycle. keep your chin up hunny - and chuck another hot cross bun in the toaster. as i said in your journal, you can contact me at any time (my retail therapy is currently on hold - DH is going to be home in a bit over an hour, and he wants to help me spend up on a new sound system and DVD recorder - he's happy for me to go and buy them, but doesn't want me lugging stuff at the moment - nice!!)
