I have been having a nasty week After going to the doctor on Tuesday and feeling a bit better on Wednesday, on Wednesday night things got worse and I kept vomiting. We'd seen the midwife on wednesday and she said if I couldn't keep fluids down I'd have to go into hospital. That night I kept throwing up after eating/drinking. When I'd finished Alec would have this look on his face, half concern half sort of parental consternation (looking back now it's kind of funny!!) finally late at night I was able to keep some water down, lucky as I was exhausted and REALLY did not want to get dressed and go to hospital, I just wanted to sleep. Anyway, I haven't been throwing up but I still feel absolutely drained, can't eat much and can't stay on my feet more than a couple of minutes. It must just be a virus, I really hope I'm better by Monday.
I did have a scan, I thought I posted about it already? Baby is now estimated to weigh 1250g, scary!!!
I also hope no-one minds us preggos staying in here. I post in both but I feel like I've known the ladies here longer and also I feel like the TTC journey doesn't end with a BFP, and I hope that when all the TTCers here get theirs they'll continue to share the journey with the rest of us.
I'm afraid I don't have the energy for the personals I'd like to write now, but I just wanted to say to Theresa about the whole 'relax and it will happen' advice... good advice if you can follow it isn't it!!! I always thought that when the time came to try we would just 'see what happens' but it doesn't seem to work that way, especially when you have trouble like we did (tried for almost a year first time before I had endo removed). FF says that there is no evidence that thinking a lot about conceiving actually prevents conception, and that all evidence says that having a good awareness of your fertile time and BD during that time is the best way to get pregnant fast. I know in my first cycle after our loss I was OBSESSED with it, charting, OPKs etc... I was at home with nothing else to do, and used to look up charts similar to mine... maybe I was just bored hehe, anyway I still got pregnant anyway so it didn't affect my fertility luckily!!
I think it might be back to bed with me now, going to be a fun weekend.
