Everything just seems to be going wrong, one thing after the other.

Work paid me wrong for my lap in March, so I was 210 down, then the electricity company have been charging us for the wrong house and took 260 out of my account rather than the usual 80. Then some kids threw a brick at one of my cars which luckily hit the body rather than come through the open window and hit me. I've had an allergic reaction to my antibiotics, work paid me wrong AGAIN still 210 down and just hoping they get it right paying me for the 3 weeks I had off for my ectopic.

Sorry for the rant, had enough of life in general at the moment. Feel seriously suicidal at points. Not that I would ever have to guts to do anything like that, but you know what I mean, I just "feel" it.

Life always seems to deal you all the crap at once doesn't it? Hopefully it is getting everything out the way and then once you get your ivf and have a beautiful baby everything will slot into place xx

 

[4magpies]

Hopefully, if not I dunno what I am gonna do! LOL.

I'm sorry you're having such a hard time 4magpies - I really hope your luck starts to change very soon hun

Betty - Fran is just so adorable, what a cute little smile she has - really lights up her whole face

AFM - booked a 4D scan for my birthday next month, so really looking forward to that - and after being adament I wanted to stay Team Yellow we have decided to find out the gender! And now I just can't wait to know, lol

 

[bigbetty]

Aw I bet you are so excited

 

[4magpies]

Well I'm back.

The actual consultant came down to see us specifically, Mr Willet. He was really lovely.

Plan of action is; from a gynae point of view they need to know how my remaining tube is, he said they tried to clean it up at the last planned lap and that they sort of did it, although it wasn't perfect and they are refering me for a HSG, the waiting list for that is 3 months, but could be longer and said to bare with them. He said the best option for getting us our baby is IVF. He told me to carry on losing weight, and to go back and see him after the HSG and we will probably be referred for IVF.

He said again small chance of getting pregnant so it could happen, not trying to get to hopeful though, as it would be a big chance of ectopic again. Same drill if I ever get a BFP as last time. Wont be actively TTC, as far too stressful for such a small chance, just carry on like we are, no protection.

They only removed half my right tube, but it is tied and useless. So he said its totally out the equation and not to worry.

So basically, gonna lose weight as quick as poss, pref before septemer/october (3 months), try and lose all of it, if not most to show I am doing it, and get referred for IVF. Maybe I will be pregnant for my next birthday, that would be awesome.

PCOS, ovarys look fine. Showed me pics, just must of been the nurse speculating.

Dont think I've missed anything. Thanks for reading.

Hi magpies.....I'm sorry to hear about all of the crap you have had to deal with. Sometimes it feels like life is just one long, uphill battle huh? I don't know much about fertility treatments, but I can't believe you are required to be under a certain weight before you are allowed help. Especially if you don't have any health concerns. I hope things start looking up. Keep us posted please!

Lara.....so exciting about your scan. Please be sure to post some pics and let us know what team you are on. I still can't believe how far along you are!!

I don't have much of an update for myself. Still adjusting to motherhood. Jaxon has taken to crying whenever he is awake and not being held. So my days have been kind of stressful and very unproductive (my house looks like a disaster area.) Plus he has been struggling to fall asleep. I am keeping my hopes up that it's just a newborn thing that will pass. Here are a couple of pics.....can you tell I'm in love?

Magpies,
Mustang, he's adorable! As far as him crying when not being held, I had a brother who was like that and we (my momma and I, I was 14-15) ended up baby-wearing him constantly - have you got any carriers?

Well ladies i got a bfp on friday 17th im so so happy. Xx

Congrats!
bigbetty, Fran is adorable!!

As far as me - 29 weeks pregnant, my lower back is killing me lately and my sleep is all out of whack which makes me cranky, and Miss M has figured out how to kick my cervix AND my belly button. But, other than that I feel pretty good, we're taking Lamaze classes and loving them, and I've switched care providers to a midwife who I will see on Monday!

4magpies - so sorry that you have to go through all this. But it sounds as if there are positives, and that IVF would work well for you. Good luck with losing weight - I know how hard it is, but what an incentive you have now :0) Keeping everything crossed for you hun

Mustang - I'll definately post some pics and be sure to update what team we are on, scan is July 15th so got a little wait now. And can I say that Jaxon is adorable - what a cutie I was also gonna suggest a baby carrier - at least you will then have hands free to try and do a bit more

mumanddad - HUGE congrats on your BFP, fab news!!

Starlit - I'm totally with you on the lack of sleep. My hips are so achy at night, I just can't settle - I have so many pillows and sleep on a folded duvet too, but not really helping. The thought of another 16 or so weeks of this is not nice - plus all the sleepless nights when LO is here too

BigBetty -- I could never get tired of looking at pictures of that gorgeous little lady!

4magpies -- So sorry to hear of your ectopic last month. I know you can lose the weight. Have you been to www.myfitnesspal.com yet? It's a really great site to help keep yourself on track with eating healthy and exercising. You do those 2 things and the weight will come off (be sure you're eating enough!). That's where I'll be losing my baby weight. Actually, I've been there every day for the last 22-23 months.

LaraJJ -- Hooray for a 4d u/s and finding out the gender! I would've lost my mind by now if I didn't know what we're having.

mustang -- Hang in there, hun. Lots of women I know who have recently had babies all say they go through fussy growth spurt type phases, especially right around Jaxon's age. Fx that's all it is and he settles down soon! I can't see your pictures from work but I can hardly wait to log in from home to see his cute squishy little face.

mumanddad -- Congratulations!! You timed that well! After being so pregnant in this insane heat (I'm in the southeastern US. The temp has been well over 100*F many times already this summer), I think I'm aiming for a March baby next time!

Starlit -- Sleep? What's that? For the last couple of weeks, my nights have consisted of lying down in bed, taking an hour to try to find a comfy position, roll over, get up to pee, find most comfy position, turn over, give up on trying to find comfy position and throw body pillow across the room, get up to pee, wander around the house grumbling about how it's pointless to even try to sleep, go back to bed, fall asleep for 30 minutes, get up to pee, realize my alarm will be going off in 10 minutes anyway, say eff it & start getting ready for work. The silver lining is that I'm very quickly learning how to function on essentially no sleep.


As for me, operation "evict this baby" starts tomorrow! I don't know what I'm going to do (if I do anything at all), but I think I may try everything except castor oil. I won't go into the gory details, but I feel like I may go a bit before my due date (which is July 16). I'm thinking the first week of July but I wouldn't complain if it was sooner.
At my appointment on Tuesday, I was 75% effaced and 1cm dilated. I know that doesn't really mean anything in terms of when I'll actually go into labor but IMO any progress is a good thing!

 

[Regalpeas]

Just wanted to say Congrats to Mustang. I stopped by recently and saw that you had the baby! Wow times flies. I wish you, oh and lil baby all the best! I know you must be on cloud nine.

 

[LaraJJ]

Hi ladies,

I hope everyone is well - I still keep up to date with this thread even tho I usually don't have time to post!

So we had our 3D scan yesterday, and it was amazing! At first baby wouldn't play ball and was laid all tucked up, so I had to do some of my yoga poses and jiggle around alot, lol!! But luckily baby was then in a great position and we got some amazing photos and DVD footage

We also found out that we are It was so emotional, I just love being able to refer to 'her' and 'she' and calling her by name - Tessa Liana Rose

So we then went out and bought lots of girly things

I just can't wait to meet her now

 

[hellybean]

hello ladies, i hope your all well and i have enjoyed reading through some of your posts!

I am overweight 14st ish heehee! and i live my life eating healthy foods, ride 5 miles a day on my bicycle to work and back and go walking too and i never get any thinner or loose anymore after loosing 2 and half stone 2 years ago, my body just wants to be this way!

anyhow OH and i got our cycle #2 after BC and was trying for baby #1
so we caught the eggy very soon, i thought it would take ages!

I know its early days and have not yet had an appointment at doctors, they told me to call back in 3 weeks but i am worried they have a go at me about my weight when i go and i also have whites coats syndrome when it comes to having my blood pressure taken, it panics me sooooo much, so i know it will be high when i go and i am also worried about that even tho, they always say its ok and just a little high when i go for other stuff but know its from this syndrome thing, but MW wont know that, so to go on! just felt the need to get it out of me



lots of to you all

Well, we knew we'd have to move - we're in a tiny studio apartment right now. It will be a bit hectic but luckily we're not moving far (actually across the street ) and we have two strapping young men to help us (dH's brother and best friend) with the actual moving part. I'm just going to be doing the packing...

 

[LaraJJ]

Welcome along hellybean - and congrats on your bfp Don't worry, I am much bigger than you and haven't had bad attitudes towards my weight so far - you'll be fine!

Starlit - woah! Time has certainly flown, not long to go!!!! Hope the move goes well
