How is everyone? I'm not too bad...could be better....I tested again on Sunday and guess what?...it was exactly what I thought it would be ...NEGATIVE....I was sooo upset yesterday..ever tried vaccumming and stripping beds and mopping floors whilst bawling your head off and a husband who's whingeing to stop the noise b/c he has a hangover??? Well, if you haven't I don't recommend it...
So, today is day 41 and that's the longest my cycle has ever been and I really thought it would happen this month given that we had been trying (the past 2 times we weren't trying)...so as soon as AF does show up I'm not going to do any more temping and just going to watch for CM and going on how I feel...it sucks I tells ya...but at least you guys know how it feels...the crash of disappointment is unbearable sometimes.
On a positive note, it seems that the diet I'm on is working...in a week (going by my scales) it seems that I've lost about 2 kilos. I'll be weighed at the naturopath's tonight.
How is everyone else? I haven't been online for a few days so there's lots to catch up on.
Did anyone else test on the w/e?
Kez - I had my ep in early Dec 05 and didnt get af until mid Feb 06! My drs told me it cant take anywhere between 6-10 weeks, so sit tight and it will arrive sweety. How are you coping otherwise? Im here if you need to talk. Big hugs to you.
Michelle - maybe the cycles reverting back is a good thing? Hopefully the naturopaths are working their magic and our bodies are now healed and ready for a healthy new pregnancy.
Kate - oh hun sorry about the bfn but it aint over til af arrives, so hang in there. Yipee on the weight loss - looks like its all working for you. Last time I went on a big diet and stuck to it I got pg after a month!
Sez - Im so glad you are feeling so happy (mentally) and have started sharing your wonderful news! Im sending you big bbs vibes 'grow bbs grow'...
Shan - what is your body doing sweets? Are you thinking of going to see a dr given its been such a long cycle and now with a strange af? I hope all the packing is going well though. We'll have to host a welcome party with all the melbourne gals
Apes - sorry that you had a visit from that witch af this month! Keeping it all crossed for you for the new cycle.
Jayne - how are you doing sweets? All settled now with your mum? How is that little Jess doing - is she excited about the baby in your belly?
Megan - dont stress too much sweety (see what I wrote for Kez about af). Im sure everything will be fine and you will get af back soon, I know its frustrating but mother nature has strange ways.
Sarah - hiya hun. hows it all going in pg land?
Belle - hi sweety I hope your feeling better about things and sending you loads of positive vibes.
Tanya - praying with all my might that you have a big blue bfp before the end of next month!
Paige - I hope that O ing on the other side is a good thing and that it helps bring you a healthy bfp very soon.
Ok now to update you all on my crazy crazy body! I didnt go for a the blood test, I thought Id wait it out and do another hpt on Sunday. So at this point I was feeling hopeful (plus I threw up on Sat arvo while cleaning), so Sunday morning I had no hpt in the house and it was absolutely pouring down so I didnt want to go out and get one and I was busting to go to the loo - so I thought bugger FMU I'll test later. On going to the loo and wiping I saw some very light pink stain on the loo paper. Ive had nothing since. I really dont know what to do - I just want af to arrive so I can start my new cycle and make this baby!! Any advice?
On another note, I found one of my angel books on the weekend and I held it for a while and opened it randomly to the Storks and Angels page. I was stunned at first, but managed to read through it. It says that the souls of the babies (lost through miscarriage and other pg related losses (ie late term) ) stay with the mother and are constantly around her and help guide her. It also says that often when the mother gets pregnant again, the little soul will have 'first dibs' on inhabiting the new healthy body and is reborn. For those that dont get reborn, they grow up on the other side and stay close to the mother forever.
I found that very sad but very comforting and i just wanted to share it with you all,
Megan - I hope AF arrives for you soon. Remember you are allowed to feel however you feel: Angry, Sad, Whatever. No need to appologise for that.
Kelly - I hope you are enjoying your day off!Is your scan today or tomorrow? I cant wait to hear all about it. Congrats on your teams win.
Shan - Hope your DH enjoyed the love in (he he) and that your lucky bamboo is REALLY lucky. So sorry to hear that AF has arrived - are you sure it is AF? What is vitex and what is it for?
Sez - Seeing as you are the expert, what are your recomendations for HPT? You had better get used to preggie brain. Once the baby is born it turns in to "Mothers Drift". Can be handy at times.
Apes - Sorry to hear about AF. I hope your weekend away helps you to relax. Happy Birthday!
Kez - After a D&C it can take 6-10 weeks for AF to arrive. I expect it would be similar for EP. Hang in there.
Kate - Bugger about the BFN. Reading your post I had a lump in my throat. I can soooo imagine how you were feeling. great work on the 2kg. If you dont mind me asking, how did you do it?
Me - I have officially entered the TWW. This will be my freak out time (made so much better by the fact that Scanlon tends to be a grumpy baby!). Roll on October 6.
