Lou - I really hope it's implantation bleeding. Only other option would be that since you recently had a mc it could be your body cleaning itself out... but I sure am hoping its implantation!

May - Your chart looks good still. omg... i really really really hope that your body isn't fucking with you... What a cruel joke if it is because that chart looks gooooood!!!!!!!

Lisa - hows the tww?!

Janette - Your BD sched sounds good! DOn't sweat it!!!!

Good morning, girls! So I woke up to spotting so AF is on her way later today or tomorrow. Am I disappointed? Yup! Am I upset? Nope! Today is the first day of month 2 with Insanity. I am happy I get to continue because I am slowly getting the results I want, especially for bikini season. We'll try again next cycle!

So my DH and his sis had a huge blowout yesterday. I am so stressed over it. I don't like seeing DH upset over stupid things. Long story short, DH's father passed away last August. He left behind a mess for his 3 kids to clean up (e.g. his second wife who's 20 yrs younger robbed my DH and his older brother of their insurance money while their sister signed off in it because she was still getting her share). Not to mention the small sum of money he left behind with DH's older brother... Who has never brought it up since the death and now I am thinking he's going to pocket it all. It's wrong for me to say but DH's dad was a coward. He ignored the fact he was dying and decided he didn't need to take care of his business before he goes. DH's mother passed away 20 years ago and was buried in this cemetery a bit out of the way. DH's dad was cremated and his ashes are in this gorgeous new cemetery very close to home. DH's sister and brother (DH is the youngest) decided to exhume their mother, cremate her remains and then put her together with their dad. Sounds romantic and all but I think it's a stupid idea. The niche they bought holds 4 urns. Before DH's dad passed away, he was told his second wife was to be put inside the same niche as him. Now his first wife is also going to be in there. How awkward? I would be pissed if I was either wife. DH's siblings have always left him out of the family business all his life and out of nowhere they want him to get involved. DH is not used to it. The worst part is DH's sister is dangling the inheritance money over DH's head and holding it hostage until DH does what she wants. Wtf? She even went as low as to bring up things that happened when DH was only 16 and said their mother had to watch him go to school while she was suffering from cancer (DH was a rebellious child). Seriously? Something he did when he was 16? How low is she? As if DH isn't feeling guilty enough already??

Anyway, DH's sister has been writing demanding and sarcastic texts to DH about the exhumation. She is demanding that DH take a day off from work to be there. Now the funeral home said it's not necessary, she wants him there. DH cannot take off from work, plus he works 6 days a week so his only day off is Sunday. She doesn't understad nor does she care. She wants it done now and she wants it done her way. DH had it with her, called her yesterday after all the bottled up anger over the last 2 months and called her a fucking bitch. It exploded after that. The best part was when DH's sister brought up my family and said how if it was somethig for my family, DH wouldn't have a problem taking off work for me. That witch had to drag me and my family into this. DH got even more pissed. I have never seen him so upset.

Now we have paid for a vacation in July and is going with DH's sister and her family. What should I do? Should I do an intervention for them and bitch them both out for being stupid and acting like jerks (DH has a problem expressing himself with words so he was a bit harsh at times when telling her no)? Or should I leave it alone and let my vacation be ruined?

Sorry for the long post. I needed to vent.

May - Sorry AF got you....I'm sure it is only a matter of time and you will be preggo before you know it.

To all the other ladies - I feel the need to apologize for dragging so much negativity into this thread. I feel like everytime I post, It is always something negative. MY posts get very few replies lately and I feel like that is the reason. Again, I am so sorry for the negativity. I think I will maybe hold off posting any updates with me until I have some good news to share.

 

[jrowenj]

Damn, may... dont u hate family drama?! I am a confrontational person so i say get it all ironed out or else ur vacay may have a blowup!

When do you go to dr?

 

[Jessica28]

I go on Wednesday....but I know she won't do anything for me so I am going to my old Doctor on the 26th...if he refuses to do anything I will go to the EMERGE in the city. I just need reassurance.

 

[jrowenj]

But u havent had any bad news... no bleeding or anything so why feeling so negative?

 

[Jessica28]

Well...I don't have anything in the way of symptoms....absolutely nothing. I get a very mild, sick stomach in the evening....but nothing that would stop me from eating or anything and my bbt has been going down the past few days...

I know I shouldn't temp but it is more for reassurance than anything else...since I can't get an early scan or anything...she won't even begin to look for a heartbeat until 15 weeks...

May that is fucking crazy. I mean let her (1st wife) rest in peace. Its a very thin line with stepping over bondaries with your inlaws. I had to tell all of my inlaws that my loyalty is to Sean and I will not let anyone minuplate him no matter if they are family or not. You need to sit down with your husband and tell him how you feel. He married you because he can trust you will give him sefless advice....and after insanity, my ass would be in somebodys swimsuit

Jamie- have you strated thinking about names? You are are 33% finsihed your pregnancy....

Jess- whats the deal? Dont worry about being negative for us, but you need to be positive and stress free for that bun in your oven

AFM, had a ok weekend with the family....have no fucking idea where I am in my cycle!! Which is pretty damn relaxing...AF is due on the 30th but before clomid I did O unitl CD18 and my periods were irregular...so we shall see...HAPPY RAINY MONDAY!!!

 

[jrowenj]

You cant really base anything on sx though esp this early on. You neeeeeed to stop temping. Its not going to tell you anything and if ur stressing bc its dropping than its really negative impact. Bleeding will be an indication something is wrong so u need to watch for NEGATIVE signs which u dont have so enjoy

Nope...wont test til AF is at least 5 days late...

 

[Hayaddie]

Jess I think everyone goes through this time when we need reassurance like every single day to really believe we are pregnant... Especially after having an MC. I think if you really need it just switch doctors, explain your concerns and ask for the scan. I mean, you're paying for it so why would they tell you absolutely not! How frustrating! But we are all here for the positive AND the negative parts... So lay it on us all til you feel better lady!

 

[krystinab]

Of course the day I am all chatty no body wants the talk...booooo....I will just keep posting and answer my self

 

[jrowenj]

Im chatty. Lets do this, krystina!

 

[krystinab]

perfect! so...have you had to start buying bigger bras or maternity clothes??

 

[jrowenj]

Lol actually was getting dressed and kevin saw mw standing with just my bra on and says ummmmm i think its time for a bigger bra... i was so embarrassed!

 

[Bride2b]

Hey girls!!! Krystina its actually awesome you have no idea where you are...I was like that! Its the best way....its far to stressful otherwise.

May sorry about the spotting, I really had hopes for you, but I'm glad you are pumped to keep on with insanity! Jesus your OH family sound like a nightmare....I think if I was his first wife I'd be turning in my grave at the thought of being exhumed and then my ashes would share an urn with his most recent wife! WTF???

Haley - happy 1/2 way though your pregnancy!!! Jesus that has gone really quick!!!!

Jess, my symptoms are not there all the time, I feel tired and sick on and off but not all the time. I too think you should pay for a scan before you drive yourself insane. Can you wait until 12 weeks to get one? or would you be in a straight jacket by then? I dont get a scan until 12 weeks....so I know the waiting is hard, I've not had contact with a midwife yet...keep hoping there will be a letter waiting for me when I get in from work. Last time I saw her to fill in all the forms at 9 weeks.

Redsocks good luck - maybe its old blood? who knows, sometimes mc can play havoc with our bodies!!!

 

[threemakefive]

Lol Jaime I feel ya on the bra thing OH has told me the same...they seem to go up a size instantly when I get preggo lol
