Hi all, finally some time to myself. DH has taken DD up to the milkbar to get milk. It only took them almost an hour to get organised to go! He lets her fluff around. At least I don't have to get her dressed today
Beata, it is freezing isn't it? Not sure what I'm going to do today. Too cold for watching DH umpire but I hate being home with just DD on the weekends at the moment.
Hope your DH's police check comes through in time. Must be hard waiting since you can't do anything about it!
Cheryl, I hope AF sorts herself out soon. Good for you about the eating plan. I think it will really help. I've been eating obscenely well since Luca died to try and avoid the same complications in another pregnancy. It hasn't helped me get pregnant yet and I'll have to wait a long time to find out it it helps avoid the complications, but it's at least something we have control over and it's so great to be doing something positive. About the motivation to exercise, it is totally understandable that you are struggling. Grief is exhausting. I have no energy these days. I was doing orienteering (run for 40 minutes) once a week because it is scheduled IYKWIM. I never have the motivation to just go out for a run.
Berry, sounds like the AP went well. Hope it helps very soon.
Dee, I am heartbroken for you and have been thinking about you a lot. Hang onto hope.
TM, it's so hard to miss a month on purpose but that sounds very very sensible. Hope to see you here next month if you want to chat.
AFM, I'm spotting still. Expect AF tomorrow, but I always hope until she actually turns up. I feel like getting plastered if I'm not pg. I never drink to get drunk but I've been thinking that the last few days! Haven't had alcohol since I got pregnant with Luca this time last year so maybe I will have a drink.
Went to a friend at work's maternity farewell afternoon tea yesterday. I'm on leave from work so I just popped in. I didn't break down in public thank goodness. It was really hard though. We have the same boss so when he was giving his farewell speech it was like de ja vu. He was giving mine in December. And I know he would have said much the same for me 'good luck with the birth. We're looking forward to seeing the baby. Enjoy your time off'. But the good luck didn't happen. I never got to show off my baby. And I haven't enjoyed my time off.
thank you so much girls for your support i hope you dont mind me still being here chatting at this moment he has found someone else so i think that their isn't much hope of us being together but i will just keep the lines of communication open heres hoping maybe sometime some place love to you all you are all such a wonderful bunch of people
Dee, oh no that's terrible, I am so sorry hun that this is happening to you, you don't deserve this at all . I am sure it must have come as a huge shock to you. I hope that you are still getting a lot of support, are you still staying with your parents? Hun, I have to say that you deserve so much better, here you were just weeks ago trying to have a baby together! Please stay and chat in this thread for as long as you want to, it's here for support and I am sure I can speak for everyone when I say that we will be here to support you in anyway you need. Take good care of yourself and know that you are a brave and special women and deserve to be treated with love, respect and kindness .
Dee, I'm so sorry you're going through all this heartache. You really don't deserve this on top of dealing with IVF, it must be so hard for you hun. Hang in there, and please don't go anywhere! You know that you'll get all our support here hun, please remember that we're always here for you. Big hugs
Megan, I'm so glad your app. went well. I really feel this is the best course of action for you together with the TCM. I talked to my friend at work (the one that did IVF and got pg on her first go), and she said that she went to see the AP because her kidneys were playing up a while before she started the IVF cycle. Apparently the woman told her that if your kidneys aren't performing 100% while TTC, you have very little chance of falling pg. Well, she sorted her kidneys out and bang! she got pg. Maybe it was a coincidence but you never know...
On the police check thingie, I rang the IVF nurse as I was worried it might not come in time for my cycle, but apparently they have moved out the date til September now so we're OK!
Cheryl, I'm so sorry your cycle is so horrid ATM. But with a little time and patience, I'm sure it's going to regulate itself hun, hang in there & don't give up hun .
Bec, I really hope AF stays away for you hun. But if it comes, have a few drinkies as it might be the last time you can have them, lol!! I pray for a BFP for you hun
I'm not sure if Diana is going to be upset with me for letting you know, but she is in hospital ATM as she's been bleeding a bit lately and the doc ordered total bed rest for her. I'm sure you'll all join me in wishing her a speedy recovery and keep her in your thoughts and prayers. We're all thinking of you hun and hang in there sweets!!!!
AFM, still plodding along, I DTD a few times around O time so technically I'm in the 2WW ATM. Not that I'm counting on a BFP but you never know..
My doc told me one day that although we have a very small (teeny actually) chance of falling pg naturally, stanger things have happened in the past!!
Big hello to all my beautiful friends and wishing everyone a lovely weekend
Dee, I'm so sorry. This is most defenately something you do not deserve or need right now. I'll be thinking of you chick, and remember we're all here to vent to when you need it
Beata, thanks for letting us know about Diana, I hope everything will be ok. I'll be keeping her in my thoughts. That little bubba will be a fighter, just like his/her mummy!
I hope you don't mind me checking up on you girls, i like seeing what you're all up to
Diana, I hope things are going ok hun and that the bleeding has stopped. Take care of yourself, I am thinking of you
Beata, does that mean that your transfer has been pushed out until Sept, or that they don't require the paperwork until then and you are still doing the transfer in July? Interesting about your friend. I have read that in Chinese Medicine the 'kidney' is linked to fertility, when they say kidney, they refer to this not just the actual organ. Anyway, I don't know much about it yet, but it makes sense to me that our conceiving or difficulty of it can be related to imbalances in the body. I have read some great things about AP resulting in more positive results for those going through IVF. I hope you get your little miracle Beata before the transfer, wouldn't that be funny! I have heard of cases where the couple had one embie transfered and ended up pg with twins as they conceived one naturally at the same time
Bec, I hope AF didn't arrive, but if she did no harm in enjoying a couple of wines, I do that when she arrives, I figure a couple of wines a month surely can't hurt! It must have been hard with your friend leaving work to have her baby. It is going to happen for you soon hun, hang in there.
Cheryl, I hope the super herbies work and AF turns up soon so you can get on with making bubba. The eating plan sounds great, I really hope it works for you hun. I have a great book by Zita West who promotes similar thinking. All the best
Hi Teagz, I hope you are doing well and looking after yourself and that little bubba. Please do keep popping in to let us know how you are going.
We're still going ahead with the transfer next month, they've just moved out the date so people can get their forms ready I think...So still going agead and now I just can't stop having dreams about it. Lately I've been dreaming that I'm pregnant, I so hope they will come true hun!
I came across a great thread in the pg with twins or more section, and it's so amazing how many women had one blastie transferred and ended up with twins!!! So you never know hun. They make you sign these forms at the IVF clinic that with a single embryo, you can end up with none, one, two, three or four babies! OMG. I would faint if they told me it was twins or triplets .
Hope everyone had a great weekend, will do some persies later.
