Trying For a Baby part 4

Thanks Laura. At the moment trying to keep a sensible head on. We DTD around ov and now I'm symptom spotting even though I know its too early - but I've got into the thinking that because I've suddenly taken against cheese and feel a bit sick that its going to happen. I'm physically having to hold myself back from POAS (look at me with all the acronyms like I know what I'm on about), because AF isn't due for another week and I'm just off the pill. I'm repeating "not going to happen" because otherwise I'll be so upset when AF (inevitably) shows up. Does that make any sense?0

Hi everyone. I've been putting off writing this all weekend but here goes.
Well, I think it's back to 'team TTC' for me.
I've been bleeding for the last 3 weeks. Brown at first so got a referral to the EPU and they scanned me at 6 weeks. Everything was in the right place but it was too early to 'see' anything.
I have another appointment on Wednesday, but TBH since the last appm I've been bleeding red, lots of it, a bit like a period. So I can't see that the news on Wednesday is going to be good.
I've told my boss at work but I don't think she realises how bad it is. In the meantime, my way of coping is to just get on with work and distract myself.
Last week (on Thurs evening) I was at an awards ceremony and all the chairs were dressed in white frocks. I was terrified I'd stand up and the chair would be red but I wasn't bleeding that bad. It's just the stuff of nightmares really.
I'm OK at the moment, but suspect Wednesday will confirm what I am sure is happening. Last time (Feb) I had medical management of my MC which was messy but I am a bit scared of the D&C where you are unconscious.
Any advice from experience of others would be appreciated. Sorry if I upset anyone, it is horrible and feels so unfair but DH is being brilliant (although doesn't really like to know the details). We haven't told anyone I'm PG (except boss) so not really got anyone else to talk to.
Take care everyone, you are all total stars and deserve the best.

Hugs to all that need them:Asleepytiger wrote: »Hi guys. Hope you don't mind me joining in. I've been lurking for ages and want to say thanks for all the helpful information. You all seem really nice and supportive.
Myself and OH are in our early 30s, and have decided to BD without contraception for now, so I've just come off the pill and am waiting for my body to get back to normal (whatever that is). I have PCOS so am not convinced that getting pg is going to be easy, although I know it is possible because I had a very early mc a few years ago. More annoyingly is that my sisters all seem to be super fertile and so there's not a day goes by without someone being pregnant or having a new baby, which doesn't make things easy. I find myself lying and saying I don't want kids cause I can't bear the pity if being the barren auntie.
Anyway, now I've bored you all rigid, I just wanted to delurk and wish everyone luck for this month.I hope you're not here for too long:D Oh and I can join you in the woes of being the only non-super-fertile woman in the family:rolleyes: My lot just have to sniff sperm and they're pg:mad::mad: Bliimin nightmare coz they assume its just as easy for me and are constantly asking "well, when you gonna have kids??" I actually burst into tears on the phone when someone said this to me..think it was my 16yr old cousin when she phoned to annouce her pregnancy:eek::eek: Yup, its that kinda family:rolleyes::rotfl:
Katy big hugs to you honey:( Let us know how you get on and remember we're always here for you:) xxx
Bitzer I hope you're feeling a bit better after your bargain find:D and how do you ignore a burst appendix!?!?!:eek::eek: Madness!
Thank for all the condolences for AFs arrival...really thought we'd cracked it as I felt so different from every other month:( I've been in excrutiating pain with it and trying to put on a brave face..not easy when your stomach is contracting a billion times a second:mad: But its starting to ease off now so hopefully the witch will disappear soon then we can crack on with cycle 9:rolleyes:

Big hugs to Katy:A
Welcome sleepy
Go away AF pain vibes to confuzzled;)
And come grab those hugs if you would like some for whatever reason!! xBLOWINGBUBBLES:kisses2: SMARTIE120 -
Hi all, welcome sleepytiger and hugs hugs to katy I really hope its not what you fear ((hugs))
confuzzled - I didn't "ignore" it per se, it was more that it burst the day of OH's graduation and the next day was my sister's wedding. I couldn't be messing that up with hospitals and things (besides it was the weekend) so I just took lots of painkillers and got through it as best I could. Went to the GP on the monday, she gave me antibiotics for my "bladder infection" then mum took me to look after my sis' house while she was on honeymoon, to be honest by the sunday I was basically delerious but the pain had stopped. Thing is if I'd gone to the hospital then I doubt I'd have had all the complications that I think are !!!!!!ing my ttc chancesBah!
Anywho, FF has decided to change my ov date from 10 days ago to 3 days ago :mad: How flippin' annoying! I did poas this morning, but if I am 3dpo then it was just a waste of money!! :mad:
I'm now so in the dark, I'm on cd31 for a girl who has 26-day cycles and I'm just so confused
Love and hugs to the rest of you, best get myself in gear and get to work (am not feeling the love for work today, can you tell?!!) xxNever argue with an idiot, he just brings you down to his level and beats you with experience.0 -
Morning All
Welcome to sleepytiger. Welcome to with world of TTC!
So I am back in work today still trying to get rid of my man flu!
Had to take a test I have a reflexology appointment and would have to cancel if I was PG. it was a BFN :mad::mad::mad::mad:
Feel upset but I knew it would be.
Just want to get my AF and be ready with my POAS everyday pack for the next cycle to try again. 4th time lucky???????
It is so wierd as when I was caught for my daughter we weren't trying & in some respects I think that was the best thing. It cost me my marriage as my hubby left me but I did have my daughter who will be 12 on Saturday. It has taken a long time to find my new DH and I hope and pray that at age 36 i am not now too old to be TTC for my much long awaited 2nd child.
Sorry to start the day on a downer just feeling reflective & sorry for myself.
Huge hugs & sticky baby dust to all you beautiful ladies :A xoxoIf you can think it........it will happen0 -

I've forgotten all the lingo (again!) so wont even try.
Been at it like the clappers this weekend as I think this is my ov time. Was at my sisters babies christening yesterday (my god he is soooo gorgeous), so it's just made me want to get pg even more
