Disco Derail! - TTCAL/PAL Discussion and Support!

We don't even have Superdrug here, but Nato, I must insist that you go get one! Also, is there any way to post the FRER picture??? I might have a heart attack if you make me wait!
 
Hey Lucy,

I'm fine thank you, sickness is doing ok at the mo, still chucking up on a daily basis but nothing I can't handle! Nato's lemon/giner drink works wonders. Funny it's called morning sickness as mine don't normally kick in until after lunchtime!!

I've been so teary the last few days, I sobbed my heart out last night because hubby forgot to buy me some pitta bread and I really wanted it, weird! I feel so scared about next week, I don't even want to go, I want to carry on like this not knowing how our babies are then I can pretend that it's all fine, I love being pregnant and I'm so worried that it could all be over for us next week, I cannot see my Hubby go through another loss. Keeping the PMA up is a daily struggle.

How are you anyway sweetie? Hows the bleeding/cramps? I hope they have eased right off now. Have you managed to get out much?xxxxxxx
 
Mone,

How you doing hunny? When's your scan booked for? xxxxxxx
 
Razzers, what is up with that doctor of yours??? I’m appalled. Is there any way you can file a complaint about her. She doesn’t deserve to have patients. I complained about an idiot who took my blood one time and got great results. It is important for them to know what kind of service their employees are giving patients.

Cesca, sorry about the UTI honey. They are awful. Apparently they are common in pregnancy. I hope it clears soon.

Vicky, I’m looking forward to your scan but I can imagine how scared you must be feeling. I’ll be holding your hand in spirit.

Amy, you are committed!!! I’m so curious how you managed to pull it off in the airport. Care to share? You are my new hero. Sounds like you have a lot going on. I hope you can make the job situation work for you. Keep us posted.

Sugar, it sounds like you’ll get a peak any time now. It is so hard to BD so many days in a row. You might want to take today off and then go again tomorrow. Just a thought.

Hi to Sassy and Mone. How are the little ones? Sorry you are so sick Sass. It is completely understandable that you would be a bundle of nerves right now. You and Vicky are getting scans on the same day I think. Cazza is on the 10th I think too. Anyone else? It’s a big week for the discoers.

Where’s Meggles????

I got a big temp jump this morning. Pretty sure I’m 2 or 3 dpo even though FF is saying differently. I’m going out of town tonight so my temp might not be accurate tomorrow. Ho hum.

Do you all remember my friend who contacted me recently because she had a miscarriage? She and I went on a hike to process the news. Well she called me yesterday and told me she’s pregnant again. I’m thrilled for her. She’s 38. She has been doing IUI and an hcg trigger shot. We both have the same FS. This FS is Harvard educated and did the IUI for my friend after one cycle post mc. She also doesn’t have a problem with baby aspirin. I hope this bean sticks for my friend. And, I hope our doctor is as successful with me!
 
Aww massive congrats to your friend, what fab news.xxx
 
Does anyone else see the unfairness of Nato posting a positive bfp announcement and then logging off of B&B???

NATO, we NEED some follow up!!! You better be buying a Superdrug test right now. That would be the only excuse to leave us hanging like this.
 
Sassy your bound to feel like that and I'm not going to tell you not to worry but try and focus on the positive and the throwing up the crying at anything all really good signs. I am sure your little ones are safe and doing well and next week will be a really positive day for you. I'll be thinking of you and here for you.

The bleeding has eased but it seems to stop and start which is really annoying just wish it would make its mind up the pain is a lot better but again comes and goes. I havnt been out much more was going to go this afternoon but then it started chucking it down and really didnt want to get wet but I have been doing some housework which has made me feel a bit better hate the house being a mess I have a massive ironing pile to attempt but need steve to put the board up for me as its an old heavy tempermental board. I didnt sleep last night but instead of just lying starting at the walls I got up and wrote down how I felt I just allowed myself to write and not think to much about it I understand a bit more how I've been feeling I've had this pressure on my chest lately like I cant breathe thought I was coming down with something but I think its more psychological in the fact that I'm scared to allow myself to grieve or acknowledge fully what we've lost as I'm scared it will be to much for me the pressure I feel it in my throat as well is I think I just need to let go of my emotions instead of trying to control them/bottle them up. Going to talk to steve tonight about it havnt before as I hate seeing the sadness in his eyes it brakes my heart and I know is crasy but I feel like I've let him down that I let my babies down. That I'm not being a good enough wife I know he doesnt feel that. God I probebly sound like I'm one sandwich short of a picnic basket.
 
Hearty that is wonderful about your friend really hope all goes well for her and thats great you have the same FS hopefully that will be you soon.
 
Nato - I really hope this is your BFP! I always used the first response tests (that test up to 5 days sooner)...they always worked for me. I skipped over all the cheap ones, so it's a good thing I wasn't as dedicated as Cazz and Nato for POAS!! :haha:

Luce - I am glad you wrote your feelings out. I think that definitely helps in the healing process, as you are able to get it out, and not bottle it up! :hugs:
 
Aww Lucy I know exactly what you mean, why do we always feel like we have let our Husband's down we seem to worry more about them than ourselves! I'm glad your writing it down, it must feel like a weight off your chest if you get it out. Are you going back to work next week? Are you sure your upto it?xxxx
 
I've got a day's teaching work next week which I should be fine with I think to be honest it will do me good the plus side with supply teaching is I can block myself out for days if I dont feel up to it and if its a school or a year group I dont want to teach I can say no to the work. I really need some money though so need some work but just a couple days a week would be good.
 
That will be perfect the to just do one day, at least you don't have to throw yourself right in at the deep end. I think it will do you good, even if just for a few hours as it will keep your mind occupied.xxx
 
Aww Luce :cry: :hugs: I really feel for your right now. You have not let anyone down, lest of all Steve. You are going through all of this and I know he recognizes it...you are doing everything right. :hugs:

Amy, lol, I am impressed with your SMEP fortitude. :thumbup: You really do have a lot going on, but it sounds like a promising future.

Cesca so sorry about your UTI. :hugs:

Raz, your doctor REALLY pisses me off. Big time. :growlmad:

Nato!!!! :test: and post a pic....Superdrug or bust....I would love to know by lunchtime when I'm on next haha!

Sugar, that sounds really frustrating. I wonder if it missed your surge?

AFM, I got a high on the CBFM today :yipee: but hubby wouldn't DTD with me this morning before work. :( I was willing to be late for work, I was so excited. Oh, well, tonight it is.
 
Sassy, it's so natural to be feeling how you are..... but everything was so perfect at your last scan, and think how amazing you will feel when you see your bubba's again, and their heartbeats.... I know you will be scared, nothing will take that away, but at the moment you have 100% reason to believe all will be ok, hold onto that, not the negative stuff that comes in to your head (though I am a fine one to take this advice, tsk!)

I too wish I could put off Monday's scan, even though I feel such a big huge fake anyway (I know I'm pregnant, but I'm not, if that makes sense, because I am so convinced that there is nothing there), but I know that I have to face whatever comes to me and when I know I can deal with it, it's the not knowing that seems to be making me into some basket case. I haven't slept for probably 3 nights, when I do I have the strangest dreams (mostly about whales) and swimming in deep water (the steroids are to blame for the wakefulness), I'm averaging about 4 hours a night and I look like shit, but I'm just getting through one minute at a time. Funny when you are dreading something it comes around so quickly, only 2 more days and I'll know. I feel like I'm going to the gallows.

Lucy - I think it will help to talk to steve how you are feeling, he probably is the same with you that he doesn't want bring it up to upset you more.... do you want to keep it in or do you think it would help to let it all out? It is still so early sweetie in the grieving process, you must do whatever you feel makes it easier and more manageable for you.
You don't sound mad at all, I understand exactly what you mean about letting your OH down and the babies, I do too, but we mustn't..... we wouldn't say that or think it to anyone else who was in our situation would we, and they don't think that. Little steps each day Lucy. Big hug.

CJ - can I just say your doctor is talking bollocks about the aspirin. Every private doctor I have seen (the miscarriage clinic at St Mary's Paddington) and Dr Shehata a leading specialist in recurrent miscarriage, both told me to take baby aspirin before and during pregnancy (up to 20 weeks), when you come off it. Every GP I've seen has told me not to take it.... they are not specialised though and just go by the fact that during pregnancy the standard line is NO medicine is better. I would continue on it, unless you have any kind of stomach or bleeding problem. Your OH is just going to have to understand, that in this situation the GP is speaking out of her arse. God it makes me mad.

Hearty - what fab news about your friend... and yes Nato needs to get back on here sharpish with an update, because I am positive she's got her BFP, and I need something to smile about today.....

Haven't been for my usual walk today, but have started to get stuff together to sell on e-bay (I used to work in fashion, so have lots of designer bits to sell), hoping it might keep my mind busy in the next few weeks, haven't done it before and quite excited! I'm going to have it as my new focus, whatever the outcome Monday.

Oh, and how the heck do you get it on at an airport? That has got me intrigued, god makes me feel very old!

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend... x
 
Thanks Mone,

I will keep everything crossed for Monday for you.xxxxx
 
Mone you are so right I would never think it about anyone else I know I need to get rid of those thoughts that there not productive. I want to let it out i just not sure I know how to but I think bit by bit I am allowing myself to feel it just moment by moment as you say. I know steve doesnt think that at all he's been great so supportive but he doesnt like to see me upset so your right about him not talking for that reason.

Its weird you said about strange dreams with water I had a very odd one which involved being on this shack type thing at sea (although we were in the middle of a town) then being hit by a massive storm being attacked by sharks then ending up in a house waking up and having to dash to find the others on the boat/shack thing then finding my engagement ring which had been lost and a shark had taken a chuck out of one of the stones which I was really upset about why the shark didnt bite my hand of at the same time I dont know I woke up just after finding the ring, wow I should get a dream book.

Will be thinking of you on monday mone will be sending lots of positive thoughts your way.

Thanks allie and yay to getting a high on your cbfm.

Sassy yeah being occupied with something else will be good the class I am teaching are a nice bunch but take a lot of energy and work.

Girls you would be very proud of me I went out for a walk the rain stopped and the sun came out so decided to walk down to the local shops treated myself to some chocolate when I got there. :happydance: I know its daft but I'm proud of myself and it felt good to get out and get some fresh air.

Thanks for your support :hugs:
 
Well done Lucy, I'm very proud of you. Enjoy your chocolate.xxxxx
 
Lucy, you are not a nut case, you are grieving. I'm glad you found the time and strength to write your feelings down. It will be good to talk to Steve as well. I wish you didn't have to feel this way. I'm proud of you that you got out of the house. It is a small feat! Congratulations.

Mone, it's so unfair that you can't enjoy this, that the stress is taking over. I'll be thinking of you on Monday. I know we all will be.

Allie, yay for your high reading! I hope you get a soy bean!!!

I'm off to the airport soon to fly to Tim's hometown. His dad just turned 80! I might not be able to check in as much but will be back on Sunday night. Hope everyone has a good weekend. Try not to stress to much ladies (easier said than done!)

xoxo
 
Oh goodness, girls! I couldn't catch up with all of that! I skimmed! But, there were so many pages! :dohh:

I hope everyone is well! I did notice a possible 2nd line from Nato! Where is the update on that?!?! Hmmm....????

I'm well... just not online much right now. I've been playing Fallout a lot, cooking more, spending more time with friends, etc, etc. I guess it helps take my mind off of the wait.

Sending lots of love out to you all! If anyone has new events coming up for the front page, I'll happily add them! :hugs:
