Disco Derail! - TTCAL/PAL Discussion and Support!

So phoned the health centre my results are back but the dr hasnt looked at them yet they told me the number which is 40 which I'm pretty sure is not a good thing seems so low guess I have to wait to hear from the dr not sure what I do next.

Lucy - How many weeks/days are you pregnant??? That makes a big difference.

 

[Allie84]

Lucy, 40 is not low! Isn't it normal for where you were at, with AF not even due yet? Have you POAS today? Is the line getting darker or lighter? Lucy, I hope you get to speak with the doctor soon to see what he says!

 

[grandbleu]

Allie - just wanted to say I'm glad your temp is up! when do you think you will test this cycle?

 

[Allie84]

Allie - just wanted to say I'm glad your temp is up! when do you think you will test this cycle?

Thanks! My chart still looks wonky but I'm happy for today lol. I'm going to test Sunday. I don't think I have the willpower to hold out for AF but I'm really sick of testing early and squinting at the strip.

Luce really the number is not low and tbh the only thing a first number will show is that you are pregnant. My first beta was taken at 5weeks and was a lousy 200. YOU MUST get a second set taken 48 hours after the first blood draw. That would mean today no???

 

[grandbleu]

Allie - 12 DPO (Sunday) should be far enough along to hopefully give you a good result. FXed

 

[LucyJ]

I dont think I can get blood drawn today they do it in the monrings here and steve and I are about to leave for my parents. xx

 

[grandbleu]

Just wanted to say that 40 seems fine for very early pregnancy. Have fun at your parents' place and try to relax.

 

[Allie84]

The good feeling you have a is a good sign, Lucy. They won't draw blood in the afternoon? If you saw that second number doubling you'd feel soooo much better. I hope your are able to relax and enjoy the weekend. It's the best thing you can do.

Hey, Amy! I see you :wave: How are you doing?

 

[LucyJ]

Ok my mum is ringing our surgery at home to see if she can sort something out if not today then going to see if I can get blood drawn at the dr's tomorrow morning I'm guessing as I had the blood done at 11:00am on thursday then having it done on sat morning would be ok wish my dr would look at the results and ring me to see what he thinks. Thanks fo your kind words and support I feel calmer now.

 

[msarkozi]

Lucy - 40 is a good number. Get bloods done again Monday morning, and if that set of numbers is increasing, have them done again a few days later to see if they are still increasing. As long as they are increasing, you are good to go

 

[vickyd]

Luce your mom has the right idea! Saturday is perfect for a repeat measurement!

 

[Dazed]

Good morning ladies!

Sugar, sorry your dr. seems like a jerk.

Lucy, still holding out that hope for you!

Hope everyone else is doing well and staying warm!

 

[LucyJ]

I love my mum and I love you girls, mum has got me an appointment at 8am tomorrow morning to have blood taken at the local hospital then we have to pop in on monday morning to get the results.

My next question is steve and I have tickets to see war of the worlds at wembley arena due to the bad weather we're going to most likely get the train to london and then tube it its a bit of a walk from the tube so wondering whether to go especially with the weather the way it is the show is full of pyrotechnic's. If I dont go my dad will go with steve and I would stay home with my mum not sure what to do still getting cramping and spotting very lightly.

 

[MinnieMone]

lucy i don't think that is a bad number at all, remember you still haven't reached AF date yet, as the others have said the second number will give you a better idea. Have a lovely visit at your folks.

Allie - I always get a sore throat before a BFP and think I'm coming down with something. Well done for waiting to test, fingers crossed hun.

 

[heart tree]

Just woke up. Lucy I think it is a good number too. Bless your mum for getting you an appointment tomorrow. Honestly if you are even questioning going to war of the worlds, I would say don't go. You don't need any added anxiety. Just have a nice night at home with your mum.

 

[heart tree]

Allie I think your chart looks really good. I've known several women who thought they were sick and realized they were pregnant. I can't wait for you to test. Sorry I fell asleep last night after I asked you about tv shows. I'm all caught up with Big Love and waiting for the new season.

Sugar I hope you get that lap done soon and then can talk to the private doctor again. I haven't heard of Clomid being dangerous when overweight. What about Femara? The only thing I would caution about soy is that it inhibits estrogen so that when you finish it you get a surge of estrogen which jump starts ov. Same with Clomid and Femara. If you have endo, the surge could irritate the endo because endo feeds off of estrogen. I have read that Femara is better than Clomid for women with endo. Not sure about soy. I think doing progesterone is a good idea. I'm not sure I have a lot of faith in your doc to be honest.

Jenny I hope you feel better soon. With your fever, your chart is going to be off.

Megg I hope your fever is a BFP!!

Vicky that's awesome that you slept in. Maybe you were relaxed after the scan.

Sorry just woke up. Can't remember everything I read. Off to the gym I go.

 

[jenny25]

lucy i think you should stay home and relax cause i dont think you would enjoy it as much cause you would worry take things easy hun put your feet up sweetie

thanks guys for you nice kind words i have the doctors today at 5 so hopefully i can get some antibiotics my mil is coming with me so i need to state to the doctor i found sex sore the other night paul hurt my cervix and it nearly sent me through the roof and that was a first for that too so im gonna get my mil to wait in the waiting room so she doesnt hear me talking about sex with her son lol xxx

 

[Allie84]

That's great you got an appointment, Lucy. I guess I have mixed feelings when it comes to the show-can you not get a taxi from the tube to the theater? I don't see how pyrotechnics would harm the pregnancy, but at the same time if it does make you nervous and you think you'd worry the whole time, that's not good either! I'm really no use.

I called in sick to work today as I only slept about 4 hours and now I can't sleep either. And here's Hearty off to the gym at 7 am! I am watching Obese and Pregnant on TLC, curled up on the couch with my duvet.

 

[sugarlove]

Allie, think I need to tune into that

Lucy, those numbers sound good to me. I agree with the others, if it's going to cause you added anxiety, don't go. Maybe it will be better for you to stay in the warm and have a cosy night in with your Mum.

Allie and Hearty, thanks for the advice. I think I'm going to give the soy a go. I don't know for certain that I have endo, so it's probably worth a shot. I got told the wait for the lap is something like 6 weeks, so couldn't hurt to try in the meantime. I'm also going to use the progesterone suppositries that Jenny is going to send me.

Jenny good luck at the Doctors.

Allie, sorry you're feeling ill. Take it easy today

Hearty, get you going to the gym first thing! I need to follow your lead to get my bmi down!
