i'm too addicted to not come on here

 

[sugarlove]

Hey Dazed how are you sweets?x

 

[msarkozi]

3 MORE DAYS TIL CHRISTMAS

hope you have all been nice and not naughty

 

[Heulyn]

Are we ahead of you [I'm in the UK] Mel?
'cause in about.... 40 mins-ish it'll be the 23rd, and therefore only 2 days til christmas.... eep!

 

[msarkozi]

yes, you are about 7 hours ahead of me I believe...so you get Christmas first (not fair!! ). I am just about to head home from work now.......half a day to go, and then I am done until January 4th!!

 

[Heulyn]

WooHoo!

To be honest, christmas this year has just been a stress.
Being on a mega-tight budget means that presents are a bit crap, and my dad isn't even going to be here this year because he's with my stepmum's family instead.
Plus, a sober christmas and new year, when everyone else is totally hammered? No thanks! I'm not looking forward to that!

But at least I know that next christmas my little 3rd time lucky rainbow baby will be here

And hey, who knows.... there's still time for some festive BFP's from you girls!!

 

[Megg33k]

So I still have not started my period and got a BFN today I called the FS and they said to come in tomorrow and they will give me a shot to bring on af. I made the appointment but is there anything I can do/use to bring on af myself?

There isn't much you can do that would work quicker than the shot they'll give you. Everything else takes time and wouldn't necessarily work! Will they not do a beta, just in case? That's so weird!

Allie, enjoy your time off, that's great!!

I just got my hcg results from yesterday...they were 38,254 at 5.5 weeks...my doc says that's good...phew.

Holy crap, honey! That's AMAZING!

If gp's think it's so dangerous it makes you wonder how they keep going as a business eh? wow...I'm re-thinking!

Please... PLEASE re-think hard! I don't like it at all.


I'm up from my nap, not freaking out anymore, and I've made a pregnancy journal. Whatever will be will be... Time to enjoy!

 

[msarkozi]

That sucks Heulyn. My Christmas will be on budget next year since I won't be bringing home an income, and I spent way too much on OH! I really need to stop doing that.

 

[Dazed]

I'm good sugar. Trying to get my PMA back.
How's it going with you?

Well I decided to cancel the appointment and just wait it out a few more days. The FS will not be in until after the 2nd so even if they brought on my period I would miss my cd 3 testing. I called my regular obgyn and she told me to wait it out and if I need her to they will do a beta and my hormone testing.

Yogi- those are awesome #s Maybe they will find two rainbow babies at your upcoming scan!

I don't think it's people moaning as such. Obviously being pregnant is so much more important than anything else, including having a drink, however it is very strange approaching a booze free christmas and all the festivities that revolve around booze. I'd rather be pregnant than drunk over xmas, but it is still annoying not being able to drink when everyone around you is hammered on xmas day.

I understand Jenny...as much as I love my I would gladly be pregnant right now and give it all up. It's funny because I thought that would be the hardest part of pregnancy since I'm a fan or a glass or two of red wine but the moment I saw my two pink lines all my desire for alcohol flew out the window...it was weird...I thought it would be a struggle and it was actually easy.

 

[jenny25]

yeah i have been pregnant twice over the festive period and im like you drink flew out the window but i wouldnt change it between that and the eastenders story line this year with the sids and baby swap this year has been turned into a downer

 

[sugarlove]

Hey girls I've got a high on the cbfm on day 13. That's really good for me, given I ov on day 22 last cycle. I reckon the soy is working it's magic
Jen would you mind sending me out the progesterone if your offer is still there to use it. Thanks Hun. Might as well give this a shot before going down a possible ivf route next yr.
Jen if I were you, I would give eastenders a miss this yr, it sounds very depressing
Hi to everyone have a good day
X

I'm guessing that was down to my comment... and to honest, this next reply sums up my response:

What she said^^^

 

[Megg33k]

I can't even weigh in on the drinking thing... I don't drink! LOL Every time I'd get some sort of bad news or something, I'd get told "Well, at least you can drown your sorrow in a glass of red" or something... and its always been very foreign to me. I have nothing against alcohol on a moral level or anything, but I don't process it correctly and it has no effect on me. In fact, it comes out as quickly as it goes in and burns just as much when it does come out! So, I have good reasons to avoid it! OUCH!

Kevin doesn't drink anymore either, but only at my request. When he went into the hospital in 2007 with his heart problem, I had asked him to stop drinking because we were TTC and also because it scares me that so many in his family are alcoholics. Well, the doctor said that if he'd been drinking (and he had wanted to just a day or so before he was admitted), he would have died. His body couldn't have taken it. So, I'm far too scared to be okay with him going back to it now. I can't get the words out of my head that it could have killed him back then. And, he has too many reasons to keep himself healthy right now!

So, a Christmas without booze for me is just another Christmas! LOL

Megg - I had a friend who had the same issue with booze *about it exiting as quickly* and it turned out she had some rare colon issue that didn't allow her to digest certain enzymes properly, long story short, she had an incredibly hard time TTC and eventually had a baby via IVF, but she had 4 blighted ovum before hand. She also had a hard time with her sleeping patterns, and a VERY hard time loosing weight, and it was all due to this enzyme issue. Some vital enzyme that our brain processes was not being digested by her large intestine. Does any of that sound familar???

Does any of that sound familiar?!?!

Odd reaction to alcohol - CHECK!
Hard time TTC - CHECK!
Blighted ovum - CHECK & CHECK!
Difficult sleeping patterns - CHECK!
Nearly impossible to lose weight - CHECK!

Uhm.... I think it MIGHT! Jeezus! Can you possibly ask her what it was and how to get tested for it? Was her IVF baby okay? Or did her blighted ovums come from IVF attempts too?
