Clomid Club Graduate Buddies

Awe thanks, kc! She is such a cutie! I really miss her hair, but she is adorable with short hair too.

Oh yeah Jess, prob not a good idea. I spaced that...I don't think either one of us needs to get arrested! Hahaha

Lou, Suz- true true about not agreeing on everything. I hope you guys are serious about still liking me. It means a lot to me, our friendships.

I'll send them in sweeties! :rofl: Ok.. maybe not... I'll send you some progesterone vibes. :hugs: xx

I am pretty sure if you get progesterone cream and put enough on you might be able to nearly re-create the effect of taking the pills. I have seen women on website saying they did that.

I have some spare clomid if anyone needs it! :)
 
Oh I forgot to tell you all about my good deals... We had black Friday over here.. I got hubs 11 dress shirts for $12 each! I saved $250!!! Merry Christmas to me!
 
Omg Lou that whinge all day drives me batty! That's why the weekends are nice so dh can listen to it while I hide! Soo Jimmy had a couple happy days but today he is reverting back to cling man again where even if u pick him up he still makes a complain noise. Not all day but enough! Im right there with you guys. Sheesh! When's the weekend gonna get here?
 
Thanks v. I looked uP the cream and it was Advised against bc it's not created in a lab or FDA approved... I'll revisit that in a few weeks if I haven't seen her when I hit the 6 month mark. :)
 
Sorry kc! Connor has been strange. Last week he just wanted to be in his crib. I would hold him and he'd cry all day... And once I put him in his Crib he'd stop crying and be fine. It was really strange. He played in there for two hours one time, happy as ever! Weirdo. At least I could get stuff done!
 
Progesterone cream doesn't help sadly... It isn't absorbed enough to make a difference. A pessary is really the only way to give it and it work.
 
hey Girls....
Looking at travel systems instead of doing the work I need to do lol
I don't think I want to spend the monies for a bugaboo or a candy pram... they are nice but so expensive!
MIL said she wanted to pay for it as she paid for her daughter's one. I was looking at Gracco Symbio and Cosatto Cabi... any of you has got experience of those?
Or did you get one of the expensive ones because they are actually worth the money?
thx x
 
We have different brands here mostly... I put out for an expensive stroller though. I have heard that the cheaper ones only last for 1 kid and we plan on having more than 1 so it would end up costing the same in the end.
Also, I know several people who ended up buying a 2nd cheaper stroller because they didn't end up liking the one they bought first. So it seemed like doing really thorough research and picking a quality piece that addressed the concerns I was most likely to have would be the wisest path for me.

We really wanted a stroller that did parent-facing as well as forward-facing (which really limited our options here in the US) and we are both taller than average and didn't want to be kicking the thing every time we take a step. I am more than happy with our choice. DH tells me almost every time we use it how good it is.
If you're interested its the Mutsy 4Rider

The only real issues are ones I knew about beforehand... the frame doesn't lock together when you fold it which means you have to lift it with 2 hands mostly, but it actually helps you to unfold it 1-handed so I don't mind. It also is a little bit wider in the base than most of the standard strollers here which makes some stores a little tricky. I knew the basket was small but I don't really use it that much anyway and clip my diaper bag onto the handle... there is an extra basket I can get if I want and I have stroller hooks for hanging shopping bags from the handle.

The main downside to an expensive stroller is the worry that someone will steal it if you have to leave it unattended :haha:
I wish it had cooler colors too, but thats just cosmetic :)
 
oh and Chell... you could try Vitex (aka Chasteberry) to get your cycle back... its not like progesterone but it helps regulate your cycle. It should be at most health food stores. You can't take it whilst pregnant so you have to be really aware of when your period is due and test etc. Though there is no proof it causes harm, its just 'untested' I believe.
 
I hate vitex! (agnus castus)! I'm pretty sure it's what caused the eczema on my foof!!! :-(
 
:( sorry Lou...
Yeah, it didn't do anything for me, but I think I was on a super low dose compared to some other girls. It does work for some people and since Chell doesn't have a doctor willing to prescribe progesterone it was the only thing I could think of.

I keep getting eczema on my hands due to all the times a day I have to wash my hands/do dishes these days :( I have resorted to using my prescription cream a few times... feel guilty but I can't have my hands cracked and bleeding, wrapped in gauze etc.


By the way girls, I'm totally screwed at work. My co-worker is out of the office indefinitely right now while she waits for and then recovers from back surgery.... she was supposed to train me a bit before she went on leave, but she ended up in too much pain to keep working right now. I'm now doing her job, trying to figure out how she does everything, and totally swamped :(
Between pumping, going to the gym at lunch then HAVING to leave work on time 3 days a week for daycare, I don't know how I'm going to keep up :( I refuse to skip the gym though and work through lunch unless my job wants to pay for lipsuction ;)
And I could work while I pump if they would effing give me a damned office.
 
We've taken S to the docs, he said it's a viral infection and he'll probably get a really bad cold the next couple of days :( he's not blue now, just really hot again... :(

Chell of course we still love you :hugs: you guys don't agree with things I do but I know you still want to talk to me :D or I just talk to you so you don't have a choice :haha:

V we got a maxi cosi with pushchair, car seat and pram for £500. It's a lot but will last for all our kids... However many that is! However we rarely use it, and actually wear him far more. So we probably needn't have spent sO much! It was bought for us though...

Lisa sorry about your work situation! Just tell them like it is.. you need help or less work!

X x x
 
Chell you could try maca too... It's just a vegetable so safe, it balances hormones so sorts your cycle x x x
 
I baby-wear a lot too, lol... but there will come an age/weight when I will be very glad to have the stroller option!

I'm sure I'd handle the work a lot better if I could stay off the damned internet ;) :haha: So I don't feel right complaining just yet, lol!
 
Jess how are you doing? Are you in touch with Joe daily? Is he asking about Lili? :hugs:

X x x
 
Yesterday was a good day. He asked after Lili and communicated with me. Today he text me this morning asking me to pick up a parcel for him, but that's it. Not asked about Lili today. I give up!

I have such a bad cough... keep having fits and almost throw up. :cry: Lili is STILL snotty! And today her face came up in a rash and her eyes got all puffy. Nursery think she's allergic to their powder and I need to take in separate sheets for her!
 
He's asleep now lou... He keeps gagging on the boob :(
How is Ben?

Jess I think a cough is the worst illness - I absolutely HATE having a cough :hugs: I hope it goes soon.
Sorry he's not been in touch a lot today - are you writing everything down for when you go to counselling?

I ate an unreasonably large bowl of mushroom risotto! I am so full I may need to go to bed!!!
