Have been sitting on the PC surfing the net, procrastination, supposed to be studying, looking at options for my 40th in July. Any ideas?
Saph - I"m sorry darl. I hope you're wrong (and HPT's can be wrong!) and that you get a surprise tomorrow. If not, I hope that you can move on swiftly to the next step. Hang in there.
Babysteps - welcome to the 2WW! Yes, apparantly we are supposed to ignore all the symptoms Still, I think we are supposed to go mad during this time.
Loops - this whole process puts a strain on the relationship, that's for sure. I hope you and DH are able to come to some sort of peace, but it isn't easy, I know.
Spring - maybe you should start a macrame craze? Haven't seen that ***** since the 70's. Clean out some cupboards? Re-organise a room in the house? All the best to you in the crazy waiting game.
HEy to all my other friends in here - WLAB, BDT, Aleenta, Rob, and anyone I have missed....I can hear DH's car pull up and I have to at lest pretend to be studying.....
Loops - Sounds like you are going throug a tough time. I'm sure it's just a rough patch. This kind of weather, plus the strain of IVF can do it to any couple. Hang in there.
Babysteps - Welcome! Hope the sympoms are for all th right reasons. Best of luck for Tuesday. That's also my DH b'day. I'm hoping it is a fantastic day.
Neptune - Macrame? Don't think that's for me. However... cleaning is something that I can do that takes my mind off everything. I think you're onto something! It's just so hot its hard to get the motivation to start!
AFM - Still no sign of anything happening. No sore BB, no cramping, no nausia, no NOTHING! I feel completely normal ARGH!!!!
Here's a situation for you. If you are invited out to say, a staff social gathering and everyone is drinking, except you and they ask why, what do you say? Every time I say it's because I'm on medication they say, "What, are you pregnant?"
Why don't they believe me? (ok I'm not the best lyer) and what should I maybe say instead? I don't want them to know.
Spring ... You can say you are on a de-tox, trying to loose a few kilo's, or had a big nite the night before and could not handle one more drink !!
The other day, I had a lemon/lime/bitters and everyone just assumed it had vodka in it ..
AFM: I would lurrrve a vodka .. I am crampy and feeling very pre af - I am all but counting myself out, I have no faith this cycle has worked, in fact I just rang the clinic, and asked the protocol for swapping over to another fs within the clinic.. I am not feeling the love with this one, and I know I am going to have to try again ..
Wouldluvabubba - I wish it was that easy! It would be nice for a drink right about now. Oh, how good would a fruity ****tail be, Sex on the Beach!!! ...the drink I mean.
hi spring,
that is the worst situation and people always say "are you pregnant'' to the smallest thing ... i feel unwell today "are you pregnant''; i don't want to drink '' are you pregnant''. i think its the rudest question ever, what a personal thing to ask someone whether or not they are going through what we all are.
but i would just say the same as WLAB and say you are on a xmas detox or fitness bend and don't really feel like drinking. if they ask if you are pregnant i would say "no are you?'' or if its an older woman say "no why, are you going through menopause?'' or such. i know, i know, that's really *****y and i probably would feel bad if i said it to someone but that question really bugs me.
but sometimes, when i get asked and i don't like the person i just say "oh no we can't have kids but thanks for asking...'' that shuts em up.
We have our FET at 3pm Monday. fingers crossed.
love to all. hang in there girls.
ps just in case you can't tell, i'm in a cranky mood today. sorry.
WLB - I so hear you I am dying for a nice cold beer, at least I will confirm that I can have one tonight. Went back and looked at tests again and there is still faint lines but not as dark as on thursday, so think it is still the pregnyl in my system.
I am also looking to change FS after this cycle but I will also be looking to change clinics as well. let you know how I go. Mine is not because I dont like FS ( if fact he delivered DS andi nannied for his children when I was at uni) it is just that the clinic is an hour away and we have a clinic five minutes around the corner. The travelling is killing me.
I have to tell you what a bad person I am, my best friend is TTC #1 and she has just started, she was due to find out if this was her month this weekend, but AF came a week ago and I secretly was glad that it didn't happen for her either. I am sure if it had happened for her I would have been over the moon, but at the moment I am having the why is it not happening for us what did we do wrong. We have been TTC #2 for 18months, we try so hard and get nothing and then there are these people out there who kill there kids, it is quite upsetting. Sorry for the vent. i have got it off my chest now and I feel a little bit better.
ANGE.. hang in there hun and ill have that drink for ya im like mad hun that you dont get that drink for the next 8 months ok
and sex on the beach really does sound good and not the drink pmsl ill have that for you to ok please dont give up hun be strong and know im always thinking of you your gonna be a wonderful mummy very soon .
PS.. hun about the new fs you know thats what we did and im so happy we did it i feel so much better with this fs so if you think that can help then go for it hun you have to feel like your wanted and not just a number so to speak
Still, I think we are supposed to go mad during this time.
