    I really need a vent. Been out for coffee with my dad, nan and sister and her 8 month old baby today. My insensitive husband called their baby "it" once and sisters bf took huge offence. Hubby apologised but he doesn't do forgiving once he has been offended. So said he no longer wants to see my hubby. This has caused huge air between me and sis. To such a degree she barely speaks to me as she says it is too strained. This morning was worse. She sat with us for 5 mins then took baby to the side and parted off from us sitting elsewhere. Ignoring us. I can normally have a hug with baby but she didnt even offer him to me and just took him away. Said she was busy and had housework to do so took that as a cue not to invite myself in for half hour or so. I left feeling really depressed. Nothing I can do to improve this. Bout the only thing she said direct was that her bf says to me that im a miserable sod for not seeing him. Why should I adfter what he is doing splitting the family up. He has already stopped my mum from seeing her only grandson, 8 months old and she has never met him. And now stopping hubby from seeing him and causing this air between me and sis. Maybe he doesn't really want her to see me either?! Ho hum ...

    I assume they haven't slept for 8 months, and are snappy:o
    They'll come around eventually (((hugs))).

    DH and I were talking about our next plan for TTC.

    DH wants to try traditional Chinese medicine, and I've found a doctor, and he phoned him. The Doctor said it could be stress, and Chinese medicine can be good for that:)

    DH said he is the type who usually get stressed up (I knew that:p), but said he thinks I (me, QQ) am stress free, and copes well and don't have TTC anxiety :shocked: Is that how I come across?

    We can't do IVF for few months anyway, so Chinese medicine sounds good. I don't really believe in it, but I'm up for anything exciting:j

    Quite the opposite QQ! Little man slept right through the night 5hrs + since he was 2 weeks old! And had 12 hours from about 6 weeks old. Soooo lucky!

    I don't think I'm ovulating at all. :(
    :( Hope you're wrong. And that you get in quick at the fertility specialists. Even if you aren't ov'ing right now, don't lose hope, there are still things that can be done :)

    I think that you naturally keep a lid on how much it affects you (whether just on here or IRL too) especially as - I get the impression - you don't want to put too much pressure on your DH, esp with the once a week BD thing, and that that might make you appear cooler about it all than you feel?

    That's my impression anyway, I could be wrong ;):o

    Good luck :)


    I've been offered a last minute appointment (far away!) to have my kidney scan tomorrow. Not looking forward to it, not because I particularly think they'll find anything terrifying on it, but because my bladder and kidneys are already pretty sore and sensitive, and I've got to have a full bladder for it, and the last one I had I didn't have to have a full bladder for and it still hurt (they really dig in!)... ah well, hopefully a bit closer to finding out why I keep getting these infections, and so quickly too. I did a bit of reading up last night though and it would seem that the more frequently you get them, the more likely you are to get more :cool:

    Bigippy- I'm still the same, you could wrap and orange and i'd be excited just unwrapping it :D

    I think i'll try taking one of my mebeverine tablets every other day to try and slowly get off them.

    I hope your scan goes well tomorrow :)


    QQ- That's amazing news about your dad! Hopefully he won't need the op then if he is recovering by himself?

    I don't think I feel preg. I always imagined I would feel completely different, have all these symptoms and just "know". So, I doubt it. I have a doctors appointment Wednesday morning now so I'll see how that goes.

    CD98 and i've been crampy again although no AF yet. I still keep forgetting to temp so i'll ask OH to remind me in the morning!

    I'm glad I didn't scare you with me dream! I'm sure I had another last night about everybody on here but I don't remember it...I must have still be thinking about it when I went to bed!

    Sounds a great idea to try the chinese medicine. I never usually believe in things like that. I always thought reflexology was some sort of con, I used to have it alot when I was younger and she always used to ask me if I had IBS and I always said no and thought it was strange. It was years later I was diagnosed :eek:


    Hi Tinkwings :hello:


    Emsbet- Thanks! I really do have the strangest most vivid dreams. Sometimes I dream about things that have happened in the day but maybe something slightly different happens and then im confused about what was real and what wasn't...I don't think im helping me sound anymore normal!


    4nnabella- I will keep my fingers crossed that AF stays away and good luck for Saturday :)


    RebekahR, Twigpig, Darkphaery- *Hugs*
