Hey girls not much from me today not feeling to well kinda wish I had my new insure card now because I wanna go to doc because its been a few days I use my two off days to lay around on the sofa watch TV and rest but I still feel a lil off center anyway let's get some more BFP this month girls !!!
I just wanted to thank everyone for their kind thoughts with DS, it's very sweet and I'm so grateful to have found you girls, you've helped me through so much and I couldn't thank you all enough.
Still got the flu and a nasty cough so got tested for whooping cough today as there have been 2 cases at work that I don't have it! Bleeding still going on and off; so annoying. I have a question to ask which may seem really stupid but I've gotta ask, If I'm bleeding but it's not my period can i fall pregnant in between because DH and I have been in between the bleeding I know it's probably a long shot but I just thought I'd check.
Chappas- that's a great sign that there's no bleeding so especially over the next couple of weeks
Shortcake & Jen- lots and lots of for you girls looking out for some good news!!
fificlaire- That recipe sounds awesome, I will keep trying it because I too must be a crap cook, I'm sure we will all be master chefs soon!
Sorry I've not got much to say today Hope everyone has a great day and much love to everyone affected by the devestating fires in victoria
Toccara - Nice to hear from you, sorry you are depressed Hope things start to look up for you soon.
Jen - You musn't be the only lousy cook You would think my days in the deli would come in handy Sorry you didn't get the answers you crave, I know how you feel about needing them. Keep persisting with the Dr's and don't take no for an answer. You know your body better than anybody and if you believe something is wrong then it most likely is. I had this feeling for the last 15 months that something was wrong with me (caused by the m/c) and that's why we were having trouble. But I kept it to myself and didn't insist on any tests and waited 12 months to see a specialist - it doesn't matter now but when I think back to the time we have wasted it makes me mad!
Smi - Hope you feel better soon.
Shortcake and Jen - AF has arrived for me too (yesterday) and should be leaving soon so I might be cycle buddies with you! Let's hope it is our month so we can start this new thread with lots of BFP's!
Chappas - I know you were probably looking forward to a scan and it's a shame you have to wait longer but on the up side at least you know everything must be going well
Fifi - Hope your eyes feel better soon.
Big hi to HannahD, Issy, Indy, WTH, AJC, plc, babymiracles, possums, tam, princess, rachel (where are you?), megsmum, mannie, Theresa, naenae, karenvan, erybery, jackjack, samandpoppy and everyone else I may have missed (hope I mentioned everyone!).
Thanks again for all your get well wishes. I am feeling better everyday. I am still quite sore and tender but that is to be expected. Had a good nights sleep last night so that has helped. Well AF arrived yesterday (I was told I would also have some bleeding for a few days after the op but this is definitely AF). And guess what, for the first time in my life I have hardly had any pain with it. A little bit of cramping and back pain but that is it. Hopefully removing the endo helped. I guess I will really find out next month as this month is a little hard to tell since I am on pretty strong painkillers. Although I am hoping AF will stay away for the next 9 months or so!
Had quite a bit of bleeding (sorry if TMI). Since the m/c I only really had AF for 1-2 days and it wasn't overly heavy so maybe my cycles are finally getting back to normal. I am glad AF arrived though as at least now I know I will be able to start TTC again this month. I thought the op might interfere with my cycle.
Looking forward to the future but a little scared as well. Now I have the answers I have craved and know that there is nothing to really prevent us from getting pregnant I am feeling the pressure (IYKWIM?) DH and I have told ourselves it is just like starting all over again and we don't expect anything to happen straightaway, we told ourselves 6 months when we first started trying so we are thinking the same again.
Anyway sorry to be negative, I am still really happy and know I am so lucky to have some answers as I know so many of you are still looking for them. I you all get the answers you so desperately crave so you can hold your forever babies soon (hopefully by Christmas).
I have to suffered a loss in fact my twins in Aug 08, I went into preterm labour at 20 weeks, it has been a very long road for me in regard to recovering emotionally from it, but it seems to be getting better day by day.
My DH & I have decided that we are going to try to make a another baby, mind you he was dead aganist it and when it was Xmas and onwards to my EDD 6/1/09 I was a mess and he knew how much I wanted to try again.
I am wondering what people will say once we do concieve and tell family, of course we will wait until I am safe and showing.
Ohh Lillangels - soo so sorry for your loss, how terrible. people will say all sorts of things and the ones who love you will try really hard to say the right things. So much good luck for TTC.
smi--Sorry you're feeling crappish today! Hope you feel better tomorrow! Just think: It's going to be Thursday... which means only 1 more day to go 'til Fri!! Then it's a 3-day weekend! Yay for President's Day!
Toccara--Hey sista! Sorry to hear you're feeling unwell! Sending lots of get well and hope you feel better soon!
Mel-- for AF! So happy for you that the op didn't interfere with your chances for this month! You're being given a fresh, new start! Sending lots of for my newest cycle bud!
jackjack--Sorry to hear you're still sick... hope it's not whooping cough! Take care of yourself, and feel better soon!
littleangels-- So sorry for the loss of your angel twins It's tragic enough losing one, but to lose two... it's beyond comprehension! I pray you find comfort, support, and friendship here among us. You're in my thoughts!
jen - I was appalled ready about your 'friend'. You certainly deserve to have better people than that around you. I'm sorry you didn't get any answers from the BT, but at least you know your thyroid is functioning normally. Big sloppy back at ya!
jackjack - I'm so glad your little boy is safe and seems unscathed by the pool incident. I hope your in-laws get the gate fixed now. I hope you get over the flu soon, it sounds pretty nasty.
Mel - I think I said it before, but I'm so glad you are feeling hopeful and inspired again. Enjoy this chance to start over. Its great that AF is going easy on you now. I hope its the beginning of a trend. Or not. Hopefully she you'll get a BFP this cycle so you won't have to know if it was pain free due to the meds or not.
Theresa - I hope you are starting to feel better. Woo hoo for a healthy, strong heartbeat.
Polly - Glad you are feeling at peace. I'm praying you will have your forever baby to share this Christmas with.
chappas - Glad things are well with you. I know it must be frustrating to have to wait for a scan, but as jen said, at least nothing is wrong.
Mannie - Thats fantastic news that your thyroid levels are back to normal. Enjoy the rest of your time on the Gold Coast. Even if it is for work, at least it is a change of scenery.
Shortcake - So glad the meds worked and AF finally showed (even if she was a bit of a b*tch while she was here). Lets hope its her last visit for 9 months.
babymiracles - Sending lots of zen vibes your way. I know its hard, but try not to stress too much. Your levels seem great to me! Goodluck for next week's scan. I can't wait to hear all about that heartbeat.
meh - Glad the UTI is gone. Hopefully you'll have a BFP to report in a few weeks.
WTH - Once again I'd like to say congratulations. I'm so very happy for you.
fifi - I must be a lousy cook too. I'm sure I've been following your recipe for the last 6 months. lol
toccara - Sorry you're not feeling too good at the moment. Goodluck with the new doc (when your insurance card arrives).
megsmum - Sending lots of zen vibes to you too, to help you relax a bit. I'm sure your little one is perfectly fine.
samandpoppy - Goodluck for the upcoming IVF cycle.
naenae - We haven't met before, but welcome back. It looks as though you've had a tough road so far. Goodluck. I hope your TTC journey is short.
Karen van - Yay for a strong heartbeat.
smi - Woo hoo for great NT results. Low risk, huh? Thats what I like to hear.
Indy - Sorry your cycles are messing you around. I can't offer any help but giving you a big
littleangels - I'm so sorry for your losses. I hope your TTC journey is short. I am currently reading "Trying Again" by Ann Douglas. It does discuss if, how and when to tell people you are TTC or pregnant after loss.

My thoughts and prayers are with all those who are facing or have loved ones facing the fires in Victoria. The devastation is beyond comprehension.
Now that the persies are out of the way, its time for a me post.
I'm not sure where to start though.
Last Friday I found out that my brother has also been diagnosed with depression as well as anxiety. I still can't figure out how I feel about that. Mum is expecting us to somehow help each other. I don't think we're there yet. We need to figure out ways to help ourselves first, maybe later on we'll be able to help each other. It also makes me feel kind of hopeless, like the way I feel is predetermined by genetics and nothing can change that.
I can't imagine ever not feeling like this. I'm re-thinking that medication might be the way to go. Apparently they can do a test to determine who is likely to respond to certain anti-depressants. But I know that if I start taking them, I'll fall pregnant and then have to decide whether to continue or not, all the while wondering if they've hurt the baby or not.
On a more positive note, my doctor ordered some blood tests last week. My cholesterol, iron, electrolytes, vitamin D, thyroid function, kidney function and liver function are all perfectly normal. At least there is no physical cause for my depression and I am in physical tip-top shape for pregnancy. Now I just need to sort out my head.
Also, now that I won't be pregnant by my EDD (22/2), I feel a weight has been lifted in tems of TTC. I feel more relaxed about it and that it will happen when it happens. Besides, I obviously have issues I need to deal with.
Well, I think thats me up to date. Thankyou all so much for your thoughts and support. I have been lurking, its just that positivity is hard for me to come by at the moment (which can make posting hard).
Speaking of positivity, my doc gave me some homework this week. I have to do at least one nice thing for myself. Any ideas? What do you do when you want to cheer yourself up?
time to catch those
