Cycle 1 day 1. Who's with me? *update* It's a girl! Congrats baby_bray!!!

So I have determined with 90% certainty that my pain is from my back. It's fairly bad too. Will have to talk to dr about it next week.... If I make it that long. Lol dh is at work and my 85 yr old grandma who we call GG for great grandma is here with me. I love listening to her pregnancy stories. Lol she asked me if I would get ether. I almost peed myself.
 
LOL ether?.... I miss my Grandma's so much! You are so lucky you get to experience this with her! But I like to imagine that they are in Heaven with my baby right now...

Of course I get sick on my day off work! I was soooo dizzy this morning. Everytime I went to lay down the whole room would spin. I also woke up with a sore throat so either a sinus infection or side effects of Prometrium...
 
This will be ggs 5th great grandchild. She is still able to pick my kids up from school. She says that the kids keep her alive.

Maybe the dizziness is your first sign.

I wish it was! But I have had it several other cycles and has never been a sign for me :( since I feel bad today anyway I am betting on a virus... I guess I will find out for sure in a few days.
 
Twinkie did you have any problems getting your dr to see you ? I'm gonna call next week if AF shows up. I'm starting to get really worried there is something wrong .

Well I didn't call my OB/GYN, I called my GP cause I wanted a thyroid test and I figured I would get in sooner to see him than the OB/GYN. But no, I called the office and said that I was having symptoms of underactive thyroid and wanted to be tested and the Dr. got me in this week. I haven't seen him since we started TTC, so I guess I will discuss the whole MC/not getting pregnant problem too, but I doubt that he will do anything past the thyroid test. I am still planning on calling my OB/GYN once I find out if this cycle worked or not (should be next week), but since I am not "sick" I don't know how long it will take me to get an appointment with him :( I usually have to schedule my yearly checkups 6-8 weeks in advance because his office is so busy.
 
Oh. I will want the thyroid and hormone levels checked at the same time so I'll have to call my ob. Ours books out 6-8 weeks too for the yearly physical. But any other problems I've called about they got me in either that day or within a week. But those were things I needed to be seen for right away. I'm not sure the dr will see me yet. If he won't I will try to get him to at least let me do the lab work. That wouldn't require to be seen by a dr. He would just have to review the results. If he won't then I will call my gp just to check my thyroid. My only symptom would be the infertility and my mom had hers removed around my age.

Well I figured that if my GP finds a thyroid issue then I can take the results to my OB/GYN and start getting treated sooner, if not then the worst thing would be that my OB/GYN rechecks it when he does blood work. Hopefully we get our BFPs before then!
 
I hope you girls get it all sorted. Really hope it becomes a moot point though in the next couple of days.

Still no sign of Menb?
 
okay it is under my tickers. i will leave it up there for a few days
 
Hey ladies!!! I've been here, just chillin out! I've been doing lots and lots of reading and researching. I've been so 'pangy' and 'twingy' and I didn't want to ruin anyone's moments--so I just read yalls posts and said my prayers for ya!

Berdc--the video is awesome! Wow, I couldn't stop smiling for you! Congrats!

Twinkie--i asked my mom (a retired obgyn nurse) about the thyroid issues and she said that was exactly the right thing to do--what you're planning. But, just remember you aren't out yet!!

Moter--I am so feeling your disappointment. I only use FR too, but I did have a random blue dye and it was actually my first positive. I didn't believe it so I automatically did the FR right after that and it was positive too. So, just test again in the morning--the real morning though--not 2am. :0 Fingers and toes are crossed for ya!

Mail--I am SO right there with you. I've been crampy since we found out too. Like you said in a recent post, this whole experience has been tainted for me. I hate that I feel that way, but I just wish I could lay back and enjoy it. Instead, I'm terrified all day long. Everytime I wipe, my heart races (which can't be good for the baby) and every twinge sends me into a panic. All the research I've read and all the folks I talk to say that the twingy/pangy/crampy feeling is normal, but unlike you ladies--this is my first. I don't have anything to compare it to.
And, those numbers are great! Congrats again!

So, I still haven't called the doctor. I am so chicken shyt! I got my bloodwork and genetic tests back before we got the BFP and all is good, so that's a slight sigh of relief. The doc wanted to that Hysterosonogram tho and it's scheduled for Jan 6th. You can't do that test when you're preggo, so I'm waiting to cancel it (just in case). I know--horrible, but those MC's have me so twisted. :nope: What he still can do is a regular transvaginal US and that's what I want him to do to look for fibroids and/or other issues, but I just don't know how to tell him that I'm pregnant again. I'm don't do well with disappointment.

See, this is why I've stayed away...I'm in such a weird place with this pregnancy. I want it so bad, but it just seems so far away for us. I'm not really sure what to do. :shrug:
 
Menb- you hang in there and get stuff off your chest here, thats what you do. Never feel you are ruining anything. That's what we are here for. I understand your worry girl but you need to tell your dr. You need to start having bloodwork done. Don't put it off because you are scared of your dr. He is there to help you not judge you and if he does judge just get a new dr. So happy that you are doing well though. We have all been thinking about you. And worrying about you. We are here for you whenever. Please remember that!
 
I agree! Call you Dr.! It was ultimately your choice when you wanted to start TTC again and your Dr. shouldn't judge that decision, his only concern should be for your health and the health of yoru pregnancy. And if he has a problem with you being pregnant again, then find a new Dr., there are plenty of them out there!
