EL - fingers crossed for your SIL. I hope you get good news.
greencake - I am resigning from my job at the end of the year, and going right down to the bottom of the ladder, but I think my body needs it.
Thanks girls for your thought, but AF cruised in today, at 3 days late!
I picked a fight with my poor mum last night, I have been so cranky lately, it's work, I know it is, but she just made one anti-energy saving light globe comment and man did she cop it from me! She tried to laugh it off, and I lost it on her. She didn't know what to say. But you know what? I don't care. She has called me twice since our m/c in July, and one of those times was my birthday. Cheers, mum. Awesome.
Snuggly - Aw I'm so sorry to hear both that Af arrived and that you had a fight with your mum. You seem to be taking it well though and I'm glad you are excited to be officially TTC now.
I went to the natropath yesterday and she was great. She did the iridology thing and said I have a slightly weak liver function and a sluggish digestive system and I am too tense and need to not think so much about everything and stop trying to please everyone else and to breathe...because I have no moons on my nails..I am lacking in oxygen and maybe iron..
So I am on these horrible got awful herbs that I put in a little bit of juice, swish around my mouth for 10 seconds and swallow, 3 times a day...
She also said that my oestrogens were through the roof and I need to not use any types of plastic in the microwave at all, and to do some more excersises to get more oxygen..
I also have to work on my relaxation in that I need to clear my head totally of everything...I dont know how to switch off totally. I dont know how to not care about what others think...
Also she said to stop trying at the moment. By that she meant to just bd every second day. and maybe more at cd13 & 14 and stop on cd15 and have a breather.
I have to keep a food diary because she thinks i am not getting enough of some minerals. So in 4 weeks she will look at my food diary and see what she has to tweak and what I have to tweak..
All sounds good. The herbs are ok..I just need to get used to it, but if it's going to give me my baby then so be it..
The herb mixture includes vitex and she said its ok to use this amount of it (dont know how much it was) during pregnancy because it is great for morning sickness and will keep the progesterone up.
Sorry for no persies. I am having a major emotional decluttering day today so needing some space. Will catch up soon xxx
coco that sounds awesome. Have you thought about doing yoga, or do you already? It has some great detox functions, is excellent for de-stressing, but my favourite part about it is the all-round strength it gives you, and confidence in your own body. And if that doesn't help you now, then it certainly will when you're getting ready for that baby!
You'll get used to those dirty herbs! I actually found myself craving them after a while! Yuck!
Evening all, thankyou all so much for your prayers and well wishes for my SIL. Havent really heard too much of whats going on down in melbourne but did get a text from my other SIL saying that she squeezed her dads hand this morning and that the coma has lightened a bit so thats positive. Me and DP are going to go down and see them all on thursday.
Coco sounds like you learnt alot at the naturopath, hopefully it puts you on the right path to conceive your precious bundle. Ive been meaning to go and see a naturopath for months but just keep putting it off, really should just get off my butt and do it, might do the world of good
Snuggly sorry to hear that AF showed up and that you had a fight with your mum, hopefully when your on your holiday your mind will be preoccupied and it will happen just like that
Twinsis good luck with your Drs appt in a few days. Its so hard to keep your mouth shut isnt it. I said i wasnt going to tell people too early but couldnt help myself i was so excited.
Ferals WOW it is actually really full on isnt it. I hope you can get a few more follies in the next couple of days so you have the best chance at it.
mummyof4 i too would say only 24hours after but i think everyone would be different, i get ovulation pain which i had never noticed before my last mc and its just on one side and is quite similar to period pain, just a dull ache and the occasional sharp pang
SPF Yay to getting the all clear on the US. Hopefully that was AF last week and you can get your BFP very soon
Cherished are you still lurking hun? Hope you are doing ok, i often think about you
Hello to everyone else i have missed, hope you are doing well
AFM still no AF so that a good sign, getting quite a few pimples but no real pain that i generally get so thats also a good sign. Trying not to get my hopes up too much because it just makes it all that much more dissapointing when the witch does show up.
eliselouise85 looking good for you this month then. when are you going to test?!? sounds like your dps sister is recovering from the coma if she is responding like that. when these things happen, it does put other things into perspective though.
and craftymummy, have you tested yet?
snugglybean, well now that af has shown up at least you have made the decision to go for it this cycle. you have had a long wait to get this far so lets hope you get your bfp soon.
coco1411 sounds like you had a really good birthday and that the natropath is sorting you out, although those herbs don't sound like much fun. a lot of what you said i can relate to - like trying to please everyone and not being able to switch off. not sure how you can change that though, it's just your personality. i would say that bding every other day is the best way to go. when i got pg we only bd on days 14, 16, 18 and 20 to make sure i ovulate usually around day 18.
afm the doc gave me Cyklokapron to stop the bleeding, it's a tranexamic acid and is supposed to help clotting or something like that. she knows i want to ttc and didn't want to use anything with hormones in just yet. i really hope these do the trick otherwise i have to go and see a specialist.
Hey girls just a quick one had U/S this morning i have 18 big follicles now 7 of those are good size the U/S lady said i stimulate reaaaaaly well and i she asked if i normally ovulate early i said yes and she said she can tell anyway the FS says the 7 are really good size and the other 11are almost there she is hoping that at least 4 of the smaller ones will be ready in time to give me about 11 eggs.
Mummyof4- i know what your saying if i get pregnant this month the baby will be due the same time Abbi was she was due the 11th or 12th if i get pregnant now the baby will be due around the 14th i just try to see it as a sign from abbi to say i am watching over you mum and dad and i will send you a baby the same time i was supose to come.
Twinsis-you will be fine.
Snugglebean-sorry AF turned up the biatch!
Coco- now you have an action plan to help and if i can get my estrogen down so can you.
i ovulate usually around day 18.
