Disco Derail! - TTCAL/PAL Discussion and Support!

:hi: girls

Sorry Ive not been around much been reading but havent had a chance to comment back home now afterr a week at my mums which was lovely. Benjamin is really keeping on my toes at the moment and his sleeping has been very up and down the last few weeks which has been tough going but sure we will get there. Still getting period type cramps but no sign of AF.

Allie I'm glad you had a great time in Scotland and Im so sorry about your mum how is she? How are you feeling today? I think when you've been away and been really busy seen loads of people its a bit of a shock when you get back to normality and it can put you in a funk. :hugs:

Nato well done on the weight loss.

Round glad you had a good time away sounds lovely I could do with a bit of warm sunshine to relax in. A bump pic would be fab.

Jen fab bump you look amazing so exiceted for you.

Amanda so lovely to see your fb annoucement I rememeber doing mine its quite a milestone I found :hugs: sorry about concerens with your cervix but it sounds like they are taking good care of you :hugs:

Sassy good luck with the house move so happy you've found somewhere closer to your family and friends.
 
Hearty- I’m glad mini hearty is thriving:thumbup:. I agree with Sassy and would go back on progesterone. Natural progesterone won’t hurt, it will only help. There are actually lots of benefits for mom & baby when using natural progesterone. I stayed on it 2x a day through out my whole pregnancy with Penny and only stopped a few weeks before she was born.

Sassy & Jen- have a great time at your scans next weekend! Jen, I’m excited to hear what flavor you are carrying:D.

Lucy- I’m glad you had a great time visiting your parents. I hope AF finally shows her face so you stop cramping. I was like that the 1st 3 months after having Penny and it was very annoying.
 
Hey guys! Sorry ive been so quiet, between a really busy time at work, studying spanish and taking care of Hero i havent had time to myself at all.
Hearty great news that bubba is growing nicely! About the shortened cervix, there is a thread on gestational comlications about this. I kept up with the thread as a friend on b&b had a similar issue and got a stitch put in. She had her baby girl last month full term. If you want her details let me know and ill put you in contact. I would defo take it easy hun.. maybe give the gym a rest for a few weeks and see how it goes.

Jen great news about the flat! Your bump is so cute by the way!

Nato you will be a skinny minnie in no time the way youre shedding those pounds! Im half way to my pre-pregnancy weight (from my pregnancy with Electra) so ive still got 20 ounds to shed before im happy.

Hoping, sorry to hear about almost being hit by a car... That must have been so scary! I have nightmares about being in accidents with Hero all the time. It doesnt help that Hero is very accident prone since shes started walking and now almost running!

Tomorrow i have an apointment with doc. We are worried because my cycles are getting progressively shorter. Last month was the shortest at 20 days. This has never happened to me in all my life. Although there is no history of early menopause in my family, im still worried that this is whats happening. Doc said over the phone it could just be exhaustion and the fact that i was sick one way or the other the past 2 months.
 
Vicky, how are things going with Hero? Last time you posted something about her possibly having lyme disease?

Yikes, Hoping. No wonder you're freaked out. Hope you're doing better now.

Lucy, hope the cramping goes away soon. Sounds like everyone's cycles are messed up after giving birth. Not looking forward to that!!

Hearty, my SIL was diagnosed with a shortened cervix at her 20 week scan. She ended up getting induced at 41 weeks.
 
Hi girls - loads to catch up on and im typing in the dark so anything could happen

Microdermabrasion is firing tiny particles at the skin and vacuuming it back up with the dead skin cells, you need a few treatments but its supposed to help with texture, fine wrinkles, pigmentation and skin tone. I need a big ol vacuum with the state of me recently

thanks for the congrats on the weight loss. I have promptly put 2 pounds back on and got stuck into the chocolate hobnobs last night. My wrists, thumbs and ankles are really hurting still but i havent been to the drs yet.

Hoping, will have a look at your journal next - so glad youre ok.

Jen, wow at your bump it looks great - are you starting to relax now?

Hearty, my cervix was on the short side but not enough to warrant treatment. Its great to get extra scans anyway. I think i would just go back on the progesterone - theres no reason not to and if it helps, its more convenient than bed rest but do everything you can - you will be fine, they have their eye on you. Hope vickys link helps. I wanted to talk more about crack on your fb posts but resisted cos i didnt want to hijack or make your RL friends get even more worried about the company you keep. So, i'll do it here. Crack crack crack

Vic, what will the dr do? Will you have LH or AMH tests? let us know how you get on, hope its ok. Hope popi is doing better too

Sassers, sorry youre in pain poppet.

Rounders hows your SPD?

Luce - still no af? i cant think what could be going on with you. Sorry Baby Floor Licker is keeping you up, the little tearaway

Allie - sorry things are a bit crappy. You have your lovely baby, doggy and hubby (not in any particular order there) and summer is on its way. I know you have a lot on your plate but just trying distraction techniques.
 
Hey there, Nato!

Another quite day on the Disco thread...

I might have to look into microdermabrasion... preventative maintenance is always a good thing:thumbup:

Don't worry about the 2 pounds! Just a little winter weight to keep you warm until summer;) I always gain a few pounds during the colder months.

Hello to everyone else... I hope all is well
 
Sorry I haven't been around. My mom has been in town and now Tim just got home from a 2 week holiday across the pond. I'll catch up this weekend and properly respond. Promise!
 
hey girls...i am so horrible for getting on here for the last while. i seriously have no time to myself anymore after being back to work. so busy trying to do everything...hoping to eventually figure out how to balance it all out.

i hope everyone is doing well, and i think of you guys all the time :hugs:
 
Hey nato yeah I am startingtonrelax slowly but surely we are now passed the point of scary and this is the longest i have been pregnant with Paul basically since I had aarron so my next and final milestone is getting passed 24+3 is when I went into early labour with my first but no worrys xxx


Another early wake up again blah xxx
 
Hey guys!
So I had my doc appointment yesterday, by the way hot doc is now going grey a la George Clooney so fucking hot, and he didnt see anything worrying. I had a pap, a vaginal scan and he wrote a list of tests for me to do although he said if i didnt want to i dont have to do them. I was on cycle day 9 and he saw that i will be ovulating from my right ovary on Wednesday, he shoed me the lrge egg about to crack which was pretty cool as I never seen this before. He thinks the fact that my cycles of 27 days which i had before the last two of 25 and 20 days are a good thing. Apparently 27 day cycles are considwered uber normal. He did see a very small cyst but he said its nothing to be concerned about. I will get the tests done just to be on the safe side, will do them on cycle day 3 next month.

Popi is doing better I think. Shes been eating more reguraly and seems more active on her walks. The only thing that hasnt improved is the drippy eye...We will go back for more tests in two weeks when her round of antibiotics is over.
 
Luce - still no af? i cant think what could be going on with you. Sorry Baby Floor Licker is keeping you up, the little tearaway

:haha: at floor licker he is a little tearway he is now commando crawling :dohh: we've starting baby proofing the house as he is starting to get everywhere. Ive got video of him but have no idea how to post it on here. Dont have any video of him eating well I have but it ends with him chocking not pretty if I can edit it I'll post it on fb if I cant work out how to do it here.

Nope still no AF its frustrating as I hate not knowing what my body is doing going to give it another week and if still getting pains will go back to my dr as she said she send my for an u/s.

We had a better night Im still exhausted and on antibiotics as my skin has flared up again.

Vicky good to hear popi is doing better and that it went well with Hot Doc we need a picture I think have to set up a secret camra in your bag when you see him next.

:hi: mel good to see you.

Amanda having a lovely time with hubby must be good to have him back bet he's missed his girls.

Right I must go my little boy has got himself stuck. Will try and catch up with journals this weekend got a bit behind.

:hugs: to all
 
Glad all went well with the hot Dr Vicky, hopefully thats put your mind at rest. I've also got myself a hot Dr now :rofl:

Amanda, Enjoy having Tim back, bet he's missed his girls loads.

Nato - Would you recommend that treatment? I've had chemical peels but never tried that! want Botox for my bday though :-)

Hey Mel, we miss you! Hope you and lil Kash are doing really well, when will you be adding to the disco baby count again??

Ermmmmm I forgot what else I read, I'm so thick these days!

Happy Friday, hope you all have a wonderful weekend.xxx
 
Sass you are way too young to start botox!!!! If you need botox then i need a face transplant lol!
 
Hello Ladies, I have been keeping up, just not posting.

Vic - I was just thinking that if Sass needs botox and you need a face transplant the rest of us should just give up as you two are beauties...I'm glad to hear hot doc is getting hotter ala George Clooney, mmm mmmmm. Fx'd your tests come back ok

Sass - we need to know more about your hot doc!

Lucy - Hope you get AF soon and the pains stop

Amanda - I'm glad you have Tim back now. Did you decide on the progesterone yet? It sounds like a plan and as the others' have said it won't cause any harm to give it a try.

Nato - hobnobs? You disappoint me, I felt sure that you would've started on the natobunnies by now :haha:

Sorry I can't remember what else I've read, thinking of you all though :kiss:
 
Sparkly, it's good to hear from you. How are you doing?

Jen, I'm glad you're feeling better. You're reached quite a milestone. I know you'll never relax completely, but you should feel confident now.

Vicky, glad hot doc thinks your lady parts are all good!! So, are ready to start catching those eggs yet?

Nato, my SPD has been doing much better lately. I've been seeing a chiropractor who had done wonders. Plus, I've been icing my hips and pelvis area before bed each night and it really seems to help.

What's up with you? Are you almost ready to start TTC again too? I'm anxious for some new BFP's to follow!!

Lucy, I think it's wise to get the doc to look at you. I remember my cycles being a little whacky after I had Maddy, but I was never in pain like you describe. Hope it gets resolved soon for you.

Sassy, how is your SPD? Holy crap, as if you are in 30's now! The second round of disco babies is about to pop soon!!

Not much going on here. Had my GD test this morning, I should get the results next week. I also saw my rhumetologist. He's so sweet, when he saw my belly he starting tearing up and gave me a big hug. I see him for my AI disease, but he's always been so supportive through my losses and infertility. It was really nice to see him react that way.

What's everyone up to this weekend??
 
Mel- working and taking care of a LO can be draining but you will find a balance:thumbup:. I’ve been back to work since the end of December and it didn’t take very long to get back into the swing of things but it is still very tiring so understand the lack of spare time.

Hearty- yay for Tim being back! I bet he is already smothering his girls with love:D

Jenny- I’m happy to hear your fears are calming:hugs:. You only have about a week until you know if you are team pink or team blue. How is your little guy doing with the new pregnancy? Does he have a preference for a brother or a sister?

Vicky- I’m with Lucy… we need a picture of Hot Doc! I’m not so sure I could let an attractive man investigate my lady bits… I would probably just admire him from afar:haha:. I’m glad everything at your appointment went great and Poppi is starting to come around:thumbup:

Lucy- I would love to see video of your little floor licker! So funny about him crawling commando:haha:. I hope the ultrasound provides more insight to what is going on. AF cramps suck so I can’t imaging having to go through that month after month with no relief. How is the chocolate and steak diet going? Do you think your low weight may be a factor to AF not showing up yet?

Sassy- I concur... no way do you need botox! Happy 30 weeks:happydance:.

Sparkly- Its good to see you posting in the thread. How is everything going with you? Are you all set to see your boy of to university?

Round- i'm glad the icing is helping with you SPD:thumbup: That is so sweet your rhumetologist teared up seeing your belly!
 
Hello everyone! :)

Thank you for the kind words girls. :hugs: I'm really okay...the only reason I've been feeling a bit down (well, other than worries about my parents) is missing my BFF and family back in Scotland. And Edinburgh itself...after living there, it's hard to go back as a visitor. I feel like I belong there.

Hearty, welcome home Tim. Did he bring you any goodies?

Hot doc sounds like the whole package....good looking AND super intelligent AND caring...lucky girl, Vicky! Hope Hero is 100% soon.

Heeeeello Mel!!! :happydance: I miss you!!!

Sorry about the SPD Round and Sass. :hugs: Sassy, you do NOT need Botox and Vicky does NOT need a face transplant, lmao. The Disco ladies are still young and gorgeous.

Hi Sparkly!! :hugs:

Nato, why are you hurting? Did I miss something? Joint pain?

Jen, you are looking fabulous!!!!

Any fun weekend plans anyone? Tonight Alex is going out so it's just me and Alistair hanging out at home. Tomorrow I have church conference and then tomorrow night we have a babysitter coming and we're going with friends to see The Hunger Games. I hope Alistair sleeps through the babysitter (my cousin)....last night was ROUGH. He's rejecting being swaddled all of a sudden but wakes himself up and can't sleep with his arms free.....he usually sleeps 5-8 hours and then another 4 and then maybe another 4 if his first sleep was only 5... but last night was every 2-3 hours.
