Morning ladies, sorry for the absence, just needed a bit of time to get my head together after what happened Monday. I wasn't too gutted. Without a BFP I wasn't counting my chickens, and any time that passes just allows us to save to be in a better position when another baby arrives. But at the same time, I'm never 16 days late!!
Anyway, the monster is REALLY bad. I had to take Tramadol on Thursday night because I felt like I was being repeatedly stabbed. I won't go into the nastiness of the clots - definitely TMI, but I think being so late has definitely had a negative impact on my body.
Other than all that I've just been busy getting back into work. Lots of project initiations this week for the first quarter and lots of big planning meets. Too many meetings and not enough time to do my action points has meant some pretty late nights!
Shortie got her last anti-biotic last monday, seemed to get better and then was up all last night sick. We're both shattered today and hubbie is out at his open uni tutorials so I won't even get a nap in and we desperately need groceries. This cold she caught from my Mum. I really can't handle another cold this winter - it'll be my 5th and I can feel it coming.
I think the only difference this winter is that I'm unfit compared to my usual self so I've re-joined the gym by work and me and the marketing manager are going to go on our lunch breaks. I just don't have the energy to go back out into the cold when I'm home from work and finished the dinner and bathtime/bed routine with munchkin. Hopefully it'll keep my stress levels in check too. I have a lot to do since we went from 4 project managers to 1! 40 mins three times a week is better than sweet nothing.
OK, that's my news. Betty, great news about your tubes being in order. At least progesterone is something identifiable that they can give you treatment to help with, though I don't know whether Clomid has any side effects?? De-stressing sounds good - I love yoga, it's amazing for some low impact in your own head time.
Momwife, I'm so sorry you're getting sick. I had 20hr a day nausea in my first pregnancy for about 8 weeks and I was about ready to jump off a bridge with it. I couldn't travel on the bus without having to get off multiple times on my way home for fear of throwing up on a commuter! It's miserable but you won't know yourself when it goes away - anything else seemed bearable after that.
Tina, I'm glad your hubbie is starting to look up at things again. It's hard after a loss. I'm sure TTC with such ardour will help lift you both slightly
Frisky, you OK peeps?
DCM, how are you doing? Welcome back pusherluv.
