Disco Derail! - TTCAL/PAL Discussion and Support!

I too hope this is a healthy pregnancy and a sticky bub for you, April. :hugs:

Hi Sparkly :wave: Sorry you had a shite day. Yeah, I was wondering about Amy as well.....
 
April, such a great BFP!! did you tell hubby last night?
 
April, such a great BFP!! did you tell hubby last night?

Yep he's pretty excited and giddy!!! It's our little secret for a while though!!

So hubby has been a hockey player his whole life and has this old pillow case from his childhood that was specially made for him by his aunt that has a hockey player on it and it says "He Shoots He Scores!!" I dug it out of the closet last night and put it on his pillow case!!! So he noticed it while he was changing after work and was like "WHAT DOES THAT MEAN????"....LOL...needless to say he figured it out pretty quickly.:winkwink:
 
Yogi, that is an awesome way to tell him!!!

Sparkly you'll get your turn babes. We all will. xoxo
 
I think Molly is a gonna as well!!

yes, of course! then kevin will get al territorial about the baby or somert, and the whole sorry mess will come pouring out

Yogi, Im so proud of you!!!!

Megg, are you cut down there? erk, im cringing for you - thats the only reason i could think of for wee hurting. Pouring water on cut fanjitas is supposed to stop wee hurting, but cant imagine thats relevant advice

Did you say you get fertilization news tomorrow? If so, glad its so quick and they are dividing overnight. I read a 75% rate is expected, im sending them mental divide messages

No cuts.. Just a huge needle that punctured my vaginal wall and ovaries multiple times. Its supposed to hurt! LOL It wasn't that the wee itself hurt... it was just from even bearing down enough to push the urine out. It felt like my insides were being shredded! But, I'm better now. They said it would hurt! :shrug:

I'd be happy with 75% of them making it. I've said 3 all along for putting them back. So, maybe I'm only meant (as someone who doesn't believe in "meant to be") to have 3 available to me!

Megg, 75% is a great rate so I am still really, really hopeful and excited for you! I'm dissaponited on your behalf though about the number, and yeah, his explanation leaves much to be desired. Oh, andOUCH...I really feel for the amount of pain you're enduring. My gosh it sounds awful. I think twins at the end of this sounds wonderful, and 4 being your lucky number (along with Hearty's)

OMG Yogi, CONGRATS!! That is a wonderful BFP for 11dpo. :dance: :dance: Don't feel bad AT ALL for posting your good news....we all want to share in that with you. :hugs: I'm so happy and excited for you. :dance:

I like the lucky # theory! I like it a lot! :)

Congrats April, that's a BFP alright!! I hope you don't mind me saying, that as much as I loved to see it, it made me :cry: I've had a shite day though, I'm so happy for you chick.

Amy how are you doing honey?

Megg 4 is my lucky number, my birthday is 4th/4th my son's is 4th, i hope it's lucky for you too. I'm sorry your in pain hon :hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs: 4 hugs for each of the quad geekbuds xxxx

Yay for 4's! The pain sucks... but not as much as childbirth will! So, whatever! LOL

Thank you ladies!!! I love that I can share this with all of you and want to thank you so much for helping me through everything...I really hope this is a healthy pregnancy and sticky bub!! :cloud9:

Congrats! I'm really happy to say that I didn't have any pangs of jealousy over seeing it! I don't know why... I often would! But, I didn't today! All happiness for you! :hugs:
 
Girls, sorry I haven't been around much today. That whole work thing really cramps my style on B&B. I'm off to enjoy champagne at our work party now, but just wanted to send my love. You ladies are the greatest! (and no, I'm not drunk.....yet)

This is my 2500 post which officially makes me a BnB Addict!
 
Hearty, BnB Addict, congrats on your 2500 post! I've always been a message board girl but have never posted as much as I do on here. I think I'll reach 'addict' status soon enough (even though I already am one). :hugs:

Oh Yogi, what a super cute way to tell him, and so meaningful. I love it.
 
Allie, I wouldn't be surprised if you have a temp rise tomorrow. I always have a dip before my rise.

Had a good time at the work party. Had some champagne and wine. I really needed to let loose a bit! I went to acupuncture on my lunch break and my acupuncturist was checking my pulse. She asked if I have been exercising. I told her sheepishly I haven't been as much. She told me she could tell by my pulse! GREAT! I felt so embarrassed. I've really been letting it go. I've been eating a lot and not exercising. So unlike me. Honestly, after the stupid blood technician asked me if jogging caused my mcs, I have a hard time exercising during the tww. I know it isn't rational, but it's one of those things that I sometimes think caused my first mc.

A little vent...I'm getting really sick of seeing my pregnant boss. She popped this week. I found out today that she is due the day before I was due. When she comes to my desk to ask me a question, she often rubs her tummy. The thing is, I'm sitting at my desk, so her stomach is eye level. It's really difficult when a pregnant belly is literally being shoved in your face. I don't know if there is anything appropriate that I can say or do. I've taken to avoiding her as much as possible.

On a better note, I'm 99% done with Megg's blanket! It looks super cute. I just need to do a little hand stitching and then I'm done. I'll post pics before I send it back to her.

I hope everyone is sleeping soundly or is getting ready for bed.

Amy, I hope you are ok. I've been thinking about you all day. xoxo
 
That would be so annoying to have her doing that, Hearty! OMG! How do you not go mental? I don't know if there's a way you can say something or not! It seems like you should be able to. Its practically harassment... even if its unintentional! That's awful! :( I'd be losing my mind over it!

I'm very excited at you being nearly done with my blanket! That's just enough to make this day better! Maybe I'll actually make it to embryo transfer and be lucky enough to get the blanket the same day. That would be a nice sign! :)

Hoping Amy is okay too... Thinking of you, Amy! xxx

AFM.. I'm trying to be more positive. No, it wasn't what I hoped for or even expected today... but its better than a normal cycle of timed intercourse. So assuming that some of them fertilize, I'm already better off than I have been for many months. And, if none of them fertilize, then I guess I wouldn't have stood a chance this time no matter what happened. I can only assume that if he could only get the easiest of the eggs (ie the biggest follies), then he likely also got the best of the bunch. So, maybe the rest wouldn't have done me any good anyway. It would be more devastating to get 10-15 eggs and only have 3-4 fertilize. So, its best that I'm waiting for the call tomorrow knowing that I shouldn't expect something amazing. I mean, 4 at most! LOL I think I could be happy with anything being "good"... but 2-3 would really make me feel better. It would feel like a real chance if I get 2-3 to transfer day. And, I must believe some... or I certainly wouldn't have been able to stomach my progesterone injection if I thought there was no chance. I just hope they don't tell me discontinue the shots and we'll "try again" later. I really, really hope that I get something comforting tomorrow!

Also, I suppose my husband still believes... He put our crib together while I slept earlier. I didn't even know he had done it until I started giving him shit about not trying to find similar success stories on the internet while I was napping. I asked wtf he DID do... and he said he put the crib together! :dohh: How bad did I feel about that?! I've thanked him and fawned over it now... but feeling like a bitch for not being nicer earlier! Oh well... I love it! :cloud9: Its gorgeous! Pic in my journal!
 
I saw the pic of your crib in your journal. It is beautiful. Will look even better with the blanket! I can't even imagine the emotions you have been going through today. To expect one thing and to be told another. To have high hopes and then have to readjust those hopes. All combined with a shitload of hormones being pumped into your system and a painful fanjita when you pee! That's enough to put anyone over the edge. You sound so much better than you did earlier today. I'm really happy about that. I would love to hear that all 4 are fertilized, but I agree, 2-3 would really be amazing. The odds are better than old fashioned sex any day.

Do you know what time you'll find out tomorrow? I hope early so you can get on with your day.
 
Oh yeah, I forgot to say that being a bitch is totally acceptable after all you went through today!

I'm hoping they'll call early. Do it quick like a band-aid!

Thank you! I'm sure the crib will look a million times prettier with your blanket on it! I think you need to add a little heart or something to signify it being from you! Some touch that says it was from my lovely Hearty! <3

On a sadder note... I thought I wasn't in pain anymore, until I tried to lay down to sleep. OMG! :cry: Apparently it still hurts to lay. Thinking more Tylenol are in order... I was hoping it had really gone!
 
hey girls :)

sorry took a little break yesterday. I still haven't caught up from yesterday but just want to congratulate yogi!! I wish you all the best :) :) :)

I'm sorry that you were disappointed with the number of eggs they retrieved Megg. I have faith (and everything crossed for you) that you're in good hands with the doctors though and you'll get your forever baby(ies). Now I have to go take a look at that crib!

Nothing new to report here. I'm just confused. I have been spotting bright red since Monday, and after that one small clot it's never been heavy enough to actually reach my underwear/pad. sorry tmi! I thought I was getting some cramps last night in my back and was convinced it was going to happen for real over night but I woke up cramp-free, but still spotting a little. I have zero pregnancy symptoms, but I never really did.

I have an appointment with my normal physician tomorrow and I'm hoping they will refer me for an ultrasound at the hospital but I seriously doubt they will. I was thinking about either lying about my dates or about the serious of my cramping to get them to take notice. Otherwise I have to make another appointment with the private clinic and be out another 200 bucks.

If I need a D&C or whatever, how long can I go before there's a risk of infection? Can I wait awhile if this doesn't start on it's own?

Hi to everyone else. I'll get caught up soon :)
 
Thanks, honey! I'm glad to hear from you! I've been worried about you! :hugs: I would probably lie, tbh. There's no reason to wait or be out more money! If things go badly and you do need a D&C, you have some time, but I wouldn't wait ages. I think lying about dates, cramps, or both is the way to go!
 
Megg - I hope all those nice mature eggs (he better have picked the best of the bunch!) that the doctors got will be fertilized! :spermy:

Pregoinnorge - I'm so sorry you are still spotting...I would definitely lie a little...I mean you need an U/S to know what's going on...it is necessary so some little white lies so you don't have to pay full price for an U/S that you need...well I just think it's justified in this case. BIG :hugs:
 
hun when i had my mc last year i had the spotting and was told on 31stjuly that it wasnt viable i opted for natural it didnt happened i ended up having a dc on 9th september their was no infection or that with me so it was roughly shy of 6 weeks xx on my part i think i was scared thats why i waited so long x
 
Hi girls, Yogi that's a fab BFP and what a great way to tell your hubby :haha:

Megg, Ill be thinking of you all day. I so hope this works for you. The pain sounds hideous, it's actually making me wince! :hugs:

Hearty, your party sounds fun. I can't believe you have nearly finished Megg's blanket alread. What are you, superwoman!

Amy, I would defo lie about your dates and play up the pain to try and get a scan. When I mc I had to wait 5 days for a scan as it was over the Easter weekend and they wouldn't see me before, depsite turning up to A and E. The proper bleeding took ages to start. It started as brown spotting and then turned to red, but only when I wiped. It took nearly 5 days for it to start properly. Having said that, I had awful pain the whole time too. Are you getting any pains? I'm really hoping it could still be ok for you :hugs:
 
P.S. Hearty your boss at work sounds pretty insensitive. Maybe you could try and convey with your body language that you're not very happy? She might get the message!
