Eh. Trying to chill and keep TTC off my mind. I have good days like the past few but today it's heavy on my mind. So eh. I am still debating on wheather to even use OPK's this cycle. But most likely will end up using them. I pretty much have to temp - I really don't have a choice as I need to know when exactly when I OV to start the Progesterone supplements and go for my Progesterone bloodwork. And I feel it would pretty useless going to a RE without my most recent chart I feel...

Hi Ladies! Sounds very busy here! Congrats on the house Joanna!!
Miss Lola puppy has gone home so I have time to check in and my lovely sister in law made the top 5 out of 60 girls in the Miss England comp!!! She was amazing! They've begged her to come back next year but she's not going to, she was just a little young to get the crown she's just 17 then my mother in law won the raffle prize a trip to Mauritius!! So very exciting!!

Poll dancing lol thats great.
I need to preoccupy myself with something fun. I need a vacation i think. Been having such a rough time with my Mom's 1 year anniversary coming up that shes passed away. I cannot believe almost a whole year has passed by without her here. My parents anniversary would have been this weekend on the 1st and her birthday is on the 6th. All i want to do is spend those days on the beach, because thats what she loved, but I have weddings on both of those days. After seeing the baby yesterday its made it worse because I want so bad for her to be here for it. I brought her picture with me so I could feel like she was there. I am just a big blubbering baby everytime i think or talk about it.
Sorry for the vent I just got off the phone with my Dad and its gotten me all emotional.

Well I've had an eventful day, which has involved me getting really fucked off!
So I am feeling rough still and wanted to see my doctor to see what they could give me as over the counter stuff is a no go! The doctor was more concerned that nothing has been started off yet with regards to care in this pregnancy. So phoned the EPU and requested an early scan due to possible cervical incompetance last time, they refused, so she sent me to the hospital with a scan request stating I needed a TVUS due to possible incompetant cervix at 19 weeks in order to get a baseline measurement. They again refused! They were quite mean and just said yes I know that a miscarriage at any stage isnt very nice but its doesnt mean you get an early scan. I tried to explain its not just reassurance but to make a potential medical diagnosis and potentially save the life of this baby. The receptionist was just horrid. They have even refused a scan sent in by my midwife for an early scan a few weeks ago.
So I phone the doctor back, she says to phone canterbury for a private scan. So I phone canterbury - they dont do them, but asked me the problem, so I tell her and they were horrified, so they have offered me a scan next Thursday at 9.30 am.
Anyway....the phone just rung its my midwife asking me whats happened as she just spoke to the doctor. She is phoning the hospital to get them to give me an early scan (I just need to take the paperwork back up there) she is going to call me back to let me know.
Ok so at the worst I have a scan on Thursday & I got angry at a stupid bitch for patronising me over having had a miscarriage - I take it she hasnt had to go through that!!!!! I just hold the midwife they were horrible to me too!

JF, I am sorry for your pain...are both the weddings evening weddings? Do you live near a beach? If so, maybe you and hubby can go real early in the morning and watch the sunrise. 
Gemma, that is some bullshit! You'd think that they would want to help some one out thats in your situation...where do you live again?
AFM, nothing....still waiting on AF...shes due tomorrow...hoping she doesnt come but pretty sure she will.

I live in the South East of England!!! Its bullshit!
My midwife phoned back and basically said the sonographer wont scan for cervical length before 12 weeks as before this it wont show incompetance. I explained to the midwife I know this as the reason I am concerned is the research suggests a baseline measurement at 9, then the 12 week scan, and then at 2 week intervals, so they can monitor change. A one off scan is useless - it wont show change. IC usually rears its ugly head between 16-24 weeks, as this is when the baby & waters gets heavy, after 24 weeks usually the baby is big enough to cover the size of the cervix so it doesnt put as much pressure on. Anyway she said to go to canterbury for reassurance anyway! I didnt even go to the doctors for this reason this morning she suggested I get an early scan - which I obviously wasnt going to turn down!! Its just the attitude of some people, I am just another face of miscarriage to them, not a human with feelings whose miscarriage meant giving birth and having a funeral - something that I dont plan on repeating if I can avoid it. So I am now ranting - my hospital scan department are crap!!!!
On a brighter note, I'm off to get my eye lashes extended ready for my friends hen weekend! I feel like death but think I'm going to give it a go and get on the train tomorrow!!! I have a 10" penis water pistol and flashing bride garter - the height of tackiness!!!!!!!

Jamie, you have to be 16 weeks to get a scan? Ugh..I want to know now!
Gemma, the medical industry as a whole is some bs...My cousin had a still born birth a few years back. She fell pregnant again 3 months later and her doctor saw and scanned her every week though her pregnancy. She had a blodd clotting disorder but her doc was so on point. BUT she had to pay all this crazy money to be supervised...anyway I
am sure your lil bean is fine.
Yea I guess no news is good news...we shall see...
