Hi ladies How are you all doing?

I have somewhat not so pleasant news. I have decided not to ttc anymore and therefore, I closing all correspondence, threads, letter, news feed etc that has anything to do with pregnancy. I have reached the end of my journey and spent some time pondering it and think it is a wise decision.

Bailee and Avus_mom I hope you ladies have a healthy and happy pregnancy. I know you all cant wait to see the bungle of joy coming forth.

Simplee, you hang in there because your time is just around the corner and know that in my heart I am praying for you and SO sincerely.

Have a bless weekend everyone

If you dont mind check in with us, let us know how you're doing and if you do conceive let us know!!! Best of luck to you



Well my boy might be a girp, doc said he saw no penis but it could be there so as of now I have n9 idea of what the gender is. Also have hypertension and starting meds for that! Baby looks great is measuring perfectly and weighs 8 oz!!!

 

[Avas_mum]

Oh cute Bailee when is your next scan to see? I have been so slack lately I have no energy to do anything, my DD is running circles around me! Just about to drop her off at ballet.

I'm sorry to hear tht Pie

Well I had my scan all is looking really good, but it does appear I am going to have a little ratbag on my hands haha kept rolling on its side when they were tryin to take measurements so I have had two scans this week as they could not get the measurements done on the first visit. I am 13 weeks now so am starting to feel very positive and also getting the smallest of bumps showing. Which I feel is a bit early but must be as it is my second...who knows!

Hope you are all looking after your selves and I am dying to hear of another bfp

 

[Baileeboo77]

I couldn't help myself and booked a private scan, hes a boy for sure. I couldn't go another month not knowing for sure lol. Im so scared to take these bp meds. I hope they don't have bad side effects

Thats great avasmum, and now you have a excuse to see the baby again lol. So glad everything looks good

 

[SmplyBlessed]

Pie-Your presence will certainly be missed but I completely understand your decision... If you're on FB feel free to connect with me there. I am private though so I'd probably have to search for you, if you'd feel comfortable giving your info that is... I do pray continued happiness for you no matter where life takes you. Happy early birthday, have a drink for me!

Bailee-That's exciting I'm glad everything is looking good for you and your bundle. BP meds are no big deal love, hypertension while pregnant is NOT a good thing so do whatever they tell you. Cut out salt (there's a no salt substitute that is good for you) and all that jazz. Pay attention to stuff with sodium in it, etc. What are they starting you on?

Avas-Aww yay for baby bump!!! Girl no one would probably know I was pregnant until I told them or I was about to pop...The life of a plus size woman.

As for me...Things have been a little rough on our end... OH has grown distant and I'm doing my best to give him his space but still be here for him as he'll let me.... We finally talked and got a lot out in the open last night (late last night, which is causing me to be tired at work)... We're still on the same page in terms of US, he's taking the news as he can't have children and that's bothering him obviously, says I deserve better. I told him WE can still do this and asked if he still wanted to see the fertility specialist later this month and he's on board. It's just rough, but I have faith we'll get through this...

 

[Baileeboo77]

Has he started any vitamins or supplements? ? I can only imagine how hard it is for both of yall. It will be okay you will both be parents to the same baby!!!

Labetalol 100mg 2x daily.

Hey Ladies!
First month not trying and feel fantastic. even as AF is coming to get me but whatever.
Parents visit was great, i miss them dearly so excited we may be moving back home in 6 months or so.
Taking another month off as hubbs is getting some eye surgery done so very excited to not temp or worry or chart. it is the best thing ever, dont know why I even started I hate it LOL. Wont be on here all day every day like i was for awhile ther but will be peaking in every few days to say hi or freak out about something.

Anita - So sorry to hear about what is going on with you and your man. I know that there are lots and lots of options for men so just take your time with him. He may need to crawl out of this by himself just let him know you are there for him and love him no matter what. Dealing with your own infertility is hard enough let alone dealing with someone elses I can only imagine what you are going through. big hugs

Pie, sorry you are at your end, but i completely understand the need to break away from it all. Good luck on your journey and i wish you the best

Baily & Avus - Cant believe how far along you ladies are. Hoping you are all doing well.

 

[SmplyBlessed]

Bailee-I take that same dosage as well as Procardia...And that's a very low dose, as I'm sure your doctor told you...Hopefully with diet modification and the meds you'll be back at a normal range in no time He's on a multivitamin and that's it as it stands...Thank you by the way, I appreciate that.

MyshelHeyyyy there! Glad to see you again...I've kinda taken a break from temping/charting myself (it looks so empty, lol). Glad to hear you are well... I hope his surgery goes well. What will determine if you guys move closer to the parental units? And thank you, it's been tough but we're getting stronger as a result... We had a very long talk Friday and our next stop is the appt on the 19th. Thank you guys for your support, I appreciate you all!

 

[SmplyBlessed]

Helllllloooo ladies!!! How's everyone?

Looks like you're doing well Bailee Congrats

 

[Myshelsong]

Congrats Bailey that is fantastic.
I am still awaiting my referral.
Scott is recovering from eye surgery and still taking this and possibly next month to just relax and trying to get healthier.
Doing yoga every other day at home and just trying to center myself.
I have come to the realization I really am not going to be able to conceive naturally so trying to mentally prepare myself for the next steps.

How are you doing Anita?

 

[SmplyBlessed]

Myshel-I'm doing. Thank you for asking. OH rescheduled his appointment, it's now October 24th so another month of waiting. I've taken this time "off" in sorts, I haven't temped, I still track some stuff on my app but nothing major. I've been exercising and focusing on me... That's all I really can do. I have been doing a lot of thinking and it seems I'll have some decisions to make sooner than later. I'm not avoiding those, but they're still on my mind... Living in the land of potential instead of reality is not good for me (nothing wrong with being positive, but I have to be real with myself)...

Yoga! I have been checking into that myself... Some of the terms just crack me up though. I was watching a video on YT yesterday and she was talking about frequency and 3rd eyes and I just kept giggling. I hope hubby keeps recuperating and that you guys are well all the same.

Anyone else thought, what if I don't have a child - will I be okay with that?... I have been...

 

[Myshelsong]

I have thought about that alot lately.
I have been in and out of a dark place for two years now with trying to conceive and honestly I don't know if I would be ok. I really thought my whole life I wanted to be a Mother, I thought that was my mission in life but now I am thinking maybe I am better off. It is hard going through this alone and not alone. It is hard being in my skin and wishing that I was someone else.

I have started to also read some self help books "surviving infertility and a lot of what they say is right and has given me somethings to reflect on. I have been programed to think certain things about being a woman, and I do have serious issues dealing with the fact that I am "broken" and that I may never be able to concieve. It is a hard road trying to turn your thoughts around and understand that I can be ok without carrying a child. I just have to get over it and start looking forward to the vacations and the time with my hubby and and my animals and take it one day at a time.
I know I am rambling but honestly there is alot of thinking to do .... I know what you are goign through.

 

[Avas_mum]

Hi Ladies just thought I would check in and say Hi I have been very slack lately and still so tired. Not feeling quite so sick these days but have to be very careful with what I eat or that can set me off. 3 more weeks till my 20 week scan and then we can find out what gender this lil one is. I am thinking a boy and have had a couple of boy dreams....so will be interesting to see.

Myshel and simply.... I wish I knew what the future held for you both as it is such a hard feeling to have as a women. I just wish you guys all the best and hope that in some shape or form you both get to be Mum's (I'm sure you will!)

Good to see those scan pics Bailee...very cute. I will post my 20 week scan photos I think as my lil bean has always been laying on his/her side so you cant see much in the other scans but the body and back of head.

 

[Baileeboo77]

So good to hear you're doing well avas mum! Dont forget to post the pics!

Myshel and smply, I hope you ladies get your bfps very soon, it breaks my heart you ladies haven't fallen pg yet. But it will work is way out one way or another! !!

Myshel-Yes, you do get it... Those thoughts and many more have been dancing through my head. In addition to those I'm dealing with as it pertains to me and infertility now I'm thinking about my OH.

He's already said that I should be with someone who can give me what I want (what he wants too) and he's started to become distant. I have friends (who mean no harm) say that if he's not willing to TRY to have a family then maybe I should move on (referring to AI if that's our only 'option' after seeing the specialist). It's one thing after another. I honestly tear up every time I think of my life without my best friend in it. I also tear up at the thought of NOT trying one way or another and falling pg before I may have to have a hysterectomy and adoption is my only course...

It's all a lot to think about, but I am trying to remain positive (as possible). I will continue to keep you in thought and prayers girl, this isn't easy. I try to convince myself, "oh you can just up and go any time you want, you can spend money on whatever" blah blah blah, but it doesn't make me feel any better, lol. Sorry, it doesn't.

 

[Avas_mum]

Hey ladies I know no one has been on here in a while but I just wanted to update that we had our 20 week scan today and we are team we are over the moon and excited to meet our lil man.

Hope everyone is looking after themselves.
