Aries, I am sorry that AF arrived, but am glad that you had a 28-day cycle, getting your cycle 'back to normal', really is a great step forward. All the very best for when you decide to ttc and good on you for taking time out with your DH, your relationship is the most important thing, so all the best hun.
Beata, glad you had a nice break, annoying about getting a cold, I am sure that bubs will be fine in there, don't worry too much, just see your doctor if your temps start to rise. Plenty of sleep and good nutrition will help a lot I'm sure. Also, I hope its not thrush. I got a bit 'dry' early in my pg (well, it still is early really ), cotton undies (no g-string) help and my dr said sorbolene cream is safe to use to relieve dryness. Good luck.
Bec, I had a look at your chart, and I have to say it doesn't look strange to me, similar to what some of mine looked like. I think you O'ed on CD10 as well, but it doesn't hurt to keep BD'ing to be safe, its what we did as well. I noticed that some of your charts had a LP of 10 days or less, I think you were the one that gave me advise on this? so you would know that its important that your LP is 11 days or longer. Have you tried Accupuncture at all? Your last 2 cycles look much better, which I am sure is a really good sign, so maybe for you its a matter of your cycle 'returning to normal' as well. Hope I didn't stick my nose too far, you did only say to look at your currrent chart
Samcougar, there is still a chance for a BFP. I dont' think I would ever had got a BFP until I was late. I tested the day after AF was due this time and the line was quite faint, so you never know. Good luck.
AFM, had my parents with me for the weekend, which was great. We told them our news and they are very excited and praying with us that this little gorgie will be a healthy baby and make it to full term Just very tired at the moment and still get m/s most days, but not very badly. Sending lots of and to you all.
Berry, thank you very very much for your chart analysis! I don't mind at all.
Beata, bummer about the spa. I remember going away and missing out on spas during both my pregnancies. Better safe than worrying!
Hope your cough just goes away. It's horrible being sick when you're pregnant.
Thanks girls Mum is on the way wth some chicken soup, panadol and a cough mixture & some fruit. She's my personal doctor although she always gives me a hard time when I get sick. Why do you go out out in the cold, why don't you wear more clothing, why do you work in an open office so when people are sick you get sick?? Blah blah blah. She loves me!
Beata - glad you enjoyed your weekend away. I think DH should have given you the massage since you missed out on the spa, at least a shoulder and neck massage anyway just to be safe. Sorry that you're not feeling well today. It must be nice to have your mum around to play doctor though - I bet she loves it
Aries - sorry that AF has finally arrived but good news that your cycle is sorting itself out. It's good to have someone like Megan around to give you some charting tips. I am just a beginner using FF myself. And I hope you and DH enjoy your time off soon. It's important to work on our relationships and ensure that the ttc 'science' doesn't overwhelm everything. We have had to do the same thing ourselves, usually because it was doing my head in and making me into a crazy lady!
Megan - yay on being able to share the news with your parents. It makes that little more real doesn't it? I hope m/s isn't too bad for you. Have you had a scan yet? I could pop into the pg threads and stalk you but I'm not strong enough to do that yet... it's all too real for me at the moment.
Bec - how did your uni presentation go today? I'm sure you rocked!
to Samcougar, Jo and everyone else.
AFM, woke up like a bear with a sore head this morning. I am hoping that it is a sign that AF is on her way. Although last Monday morning I felt the same. I have had EWCM over the weekend and today as well. I haven't bothered to do an OPK as I don't have the energy to. I know that sounds slack but I just want this cycle to be finished with. I just have no idea what my body is doing. I am considering going to my GP to see if there is anything that she can do. I have read that sometimes a progresterone injection is given but I don't really know the specifics of this. Does anyone know of anything? I will post something on one of the other threads as well. I am feeling very frustrated and annoyed and just want to move forward!
Just a quick one for Cheryl. Hun, sometimes enough is enough, you have been waiting for AF for such a long-time. I support your thoughts on seeing your Dr. I totally support the 'natural way', but there is a place for medicine and perhaps it is at least worth a visit to see what they have to say?
I haven't had a scan as yet, but am seeing the geneticist at the hospital on Thursday and will see if they can do one then.
Beata, take care and enjoy being looked after.
Take care everyone and stay away from people with colds Did I mention that my boss currently has Chicken Pox - fabulous!
I am feeling like cr@p today. Headache and nausea so have come home from work early. I am going to piggyback onto my DH's doctor's appointment this afternoon (he's got a sore eye) to see if we can get the ball rolling on some tests on me. My TCM thinks I am likely to be menopausal. I just don't understand how I can go from a natural pregnancy and a regular cyle last year to being menopausal now... And it seems way to early. I have only just turned 42!
Anyway, hopefully I will get some more information today. Now am heading off to rest.
I managed to get a couple of hours sleep but I still have a headache and am not feeling 100%
Saw my GP. She has ordered a stack of b/t which I will get done first thing tomorrow morning and an u/s to check lining and ovaries etc. I was very lucky and managed to get an appointment at 9.30 tomorrow which had just been cancelled by someone else, otherwise it would have been next week. So testing day tomorrow and then back to the doctor on Friday morning for the results.
My GP is lovely. She thinks it is highly unlikely that I am menopausal when I have no family history of early menopause and given the recent pg. She thinks it is more likely to be stress related. So, I am considering chucking in uni altogether. It would mean the pressure is off the rest of this year. Alternatively I could take a leave of absence this semester and decide early next year whether to continue or not. What do you think? I would appreciate your input into this as I feel like you ladies know so well what I have been through these last 4 months or so. What would you do in my situation? I need to make a decision in the next few days so I would appreciate your opinions.
