Hi to everyone else...

 

[Ladyfog]

Thanks ladies

Patiently - love the new tickers! It so good to hear you sounding more positive, although I'm sure things can still be tough. I'm just glad you're looking forward now - I was a bit worried about you

I think we may go looking at prams over Easter - it may well 'break the seal' and I won't be able to stop getting stuff!

 

[KatM]

Wookie,
Thank you for your enthusiasm.

Ladyfrog,
Thank you for the Xed fingers. Please feel better and take good care of yourself. Congrats on your sticky bean. Makes me feel hopeful.

Patiently,
Thank you Hon. How have you been feeling? Update please. I am so glad that you have decided to stay on this thread =).

AFM,
I recieved my progesterone shot. I will be getting it 2xWeekly. Dr K will then switch me to orals when I leave on holiday. If by chance this really is my sticky bean, I am nervous about leaving for a month. I am determined to go since we paid for the entire trip already, and staying at home wouldn't most likely help me keep a pregnancy. I will just have to trust that it will all work out for the best. I want to stay neutral and calm, but can't help but be excited and hopeful.

 

[Sooperhans]

Thank you Beach and Patiently, hopefully it was an implantation dip...have still got the light-headedness and general tiredness. Doc told me before I had ov to test on cd29 so I will tomorrow, even though I ov'd late. If nothing then I'll wait a couple of days. I'll let you know!

Did you get AF Beach? Hope so!

Hope your shopping seal gets broken soon Lady! (yay) NSN and all the lovely ladies, I hope you are having h&h pregnancies xxx

Patiently, I hope you are doing well hun, lots of and calm vibes going your way xxx

 

[Sooperhans]

Hey Kat, you should go away still, it'll be lovely to relax and unwind. Interesting you start with prog shots then oral, although I have heard the gel/cream is effective as it gets in quicker? Either way I have everything crossed for you and please still have hope and excitement, even if cautiously done

FXed it was an implantation dip!

My Dr likes prog shots, but since I will be abroad, orals seem to be the easiest to deal with.

 

[patiently]

Hey kat, thank you! I will be popping in now and then to see how everyone is doing. Hope to come back soon and see your pregnancy tickers too! Im super excited for you really hope this one sticks! congrats again

Lady thank you for your concern hun...I was worried too lol..i am visiting a counsellor tomorrow so will see what happens, i am bringing rolls and rolls of tissue lol...

Sooper test test test sooo exciting! If its negative you could be testing too early so no matter what the result you still could be pregnant!! whoop whoop!

AFM im so tired of going back an forth to the blasted hospital. Had my blood drawn again and in a week my beta has gone from 4,543 to 2,000. Still seems like its weeks away from being zero. Well im hoping in the next 2-3 weeks it should be sorted. Will speak to my gp about getting a hsg dye test...have any of you ladies had it? does it hurt? what are the side effects? sorry for the million questions lol..

 

[Sooperhans]

2 BFNS....booooooooo

Will try again in a few days. Bloody doctor for saying day 29! I'll not give up until on 14dpo there is still a BFN but until then...fx'd....feel quite disappointed I must admit. Hey ho.

Patiently, I'm pleased you are seeing a counsellor and I hope your hcg continues to fall...sorry it's taking a while to drop for you xx

 

[patiently]

Hun remember when i got my bfp i fainted on 8dpo tested BFN....tested two days later BFP! hang on in there its not over till AF arrives and hopefully she doesnt! Good luck and baby dust to you x

 

[Sooperhans]

Thank you sweetie I hope so, doc wanted me to stop progesterone if bfn today but hasn't taken my late ov into consideration. So I'm not coming off it just yet.

Dh is being good about it and encouraging. Bless him, every morning he's now like "was today a good temperature then?" So far so good xx

 

[patiently]

Went to see a counsellor today and tbh i didnt like her. She was very judgemental questioning me over and over again as to why we want a baby. She kept reminding me that im 24 and thats its not "normal" to want kids so early. When i challenged her she could sense i was getting irritable so she quickly said "I'm not being judgemental" She kept asking about how i feel i will cope when we do have our baby and what about work etc. I'm not sure if this is what conselling is meant to be like. But i certainly did not feel good when i left i felt even worst.

 

[Sooperhans]

That sounds like an odd session Patiently...I've never had counselling myself but people who I know that have, got asked how they feel and mainly did most of the talking themselves, certainly not being made to justify themselves. Can you swap her for a good one?? All this about 24 being too young is rubbish - my mum had 2 by then! I'm 29 and met my dh when I was 23 - had I met him earlier, perhaps I'd have been a bit younger and that's not a bad thing. It's not like you are 17! Oh is it all reverse pyschology to make you feel more sure about a baby? In which case it's a bit more clever but I doubt it!! Don't worry about it xx

 

[KatM]

Soop,
My Dr doesn't encourage testing until 17DPO!!!

Patiently,
My degree is in counselling and that is certainly NOT how a session is supposed to go. A counselor should be listening to you and supporting you. They are on your team and very caring. Sounds like you need a new one ASAP. Judgment has ZERO place in counselling. It is supposed to be a nurturing, helpful environment. No one has the right to tell someone when they are ready to have children or not!!! Outrageous.

AFM,
I am happy to report that my HCG is doubling every 24hrs. From 12 to 47 between monday afternoon and wednesday morning. I never had my HCG monitored in my previous pregnancies, so I have nothing to compare this to. I got my first progesterone shot yesterday, ouch!

I am remaining as calm and neutral as I can.... And I truly pray this is our sticky bean.

 

[Sooperhans]

Thanks Kat, think it's because when I spoke to her I hasn't got the definite ov chart signs and she was still going on the 29 day cycle I used to have. I'm going to try and wait until Mon and do another FR, I was shaking when I saw nothing today. Hate getting negatives, like everyone else I'm sure.

Omg have had a prescription nightmare with my progesterone today. Suddenly Boots are saying they need a 10 working day wait for their supplier, same with Superdrug, Sainsbury's and an independent place down the road. Currently got Tesco ordering it for hopefully Sat or I'm screwed! I have until Tues in supplies then that's it. Otherwise my doc will have to get a hospital gyno to write me a prescription, I can't approach them myself. So have been panicking and on the phone on and off all day. Boots ordered it within 2 days before, they say they have no record of that. Bullshit I say! Argh rant over, I just hate when things are needlessly over-complicated.

Kat that is great about your hcg, how often will you have the testing for? I'm pleased it's so far, so good

 

[KatM]

Soop,
I hope you get your progesterone in time. If worst case scenario, can you buy that cream they sell at health food stores?

I think I get tested on Mondays and Thursdays when I get my progesterone shot.

 

[Sooperhans]

I hope it continues to rise and you get on well with the shots. I'm worried about changing the form it comes in - from the vag gel to cream but I'm going to have to review that if I don't get anyway with Tesco. Just really frustrated, the chemist people were really rude and I just feel like nobody cared about how important this is to me. I'll know by Sat if I can get this one through from Tesco. On the plus side, the lunch was nice today. Just one awkward moment when an old colleague said "so anyone in the office pregnant..? Not any of us I assume?" at least it wasn't a direct question!!

 

[Ladyfog]

Patiently, I have had councelling several times in my life and have never been judged like that. A councellor should never impose their own view on your thoughts, only support you as you work through your own thoughts and feelings. I'd definitely get a different councellor asap - you deserve to see someone who does a proper job.

Kat - glad the HCG is going in the right direction

Sooper, fingers crossed you get the prescription OK!

AFM, feeling a bit better today but still off work. I have a wedding to go to in London on Saturday and we're staying in a really nice hotel so really hoping I'm just about better by then! Just having lots of rest for now and that seems to be the best thing I can do for now. It also means I'm doing lots of window shopping online. I've just put a bid in on ebay for a lovely crochet pram blanket - let the shopping begin!

 

[Sooperhans]

Thanks Lady, I hope so. Glad the shopping has begun! And hopefully you feel well enough on Sat for the wedding. I do love a nice hotel, it'll be a nice getaway x

 

[KatM]

Soop,
Thanks for the well-wishes. I'm glad your lunch went better than you feared and nothing was posed directly to you. I don't think it's best to stick with the cream in the long run, just as an emergency option. Well, some people on the internet think the cream is the best form, but none of our drs seem to use it.

Ladyfog,
Shopping on-line is dangerous, lol. I hope you feel better and have a wonderful trip to London. Sounds lovely.
