hormone crash after ERPC

[jaspie]

Thanks Blu must CALM DOWN!! For those of you not on my journal I've copied and pasted:

The dr told me to step away from the tests! She said 2 lines mean I'm pregnant and she'd be surprised if it was leftover from 6w ago now so for now i am pregnant and to stop testing and test again in a WEEK!!
I'm going to try and follow her advice at least for a few days. I've been with her throughout the mc and she said she knows how much i want this and after a loss we want it to be ok again asap but I'm putting myself under too much stress so soon and she'd never advise testing before period is due as it's not a reliable answer and advises waiting til you're overdue. She said you can't go by darkness of lines as every pregnancy is different.

So I'm still not convinced I'm pregnant but I'm a bit reassured so I'm going to try and forget about it for a bit (ha!) until af comes or i get a bfn xx

Jaspie- good you met with your doctor today. Very good advice..though, yeah..tough to follow! It would be surprising if it was leftover hcg since procedure was 6 weeks ago no. Hmm. At least try to wait..say 4 days before testing again?!
Keep mind occupied and keep busy as much as you possibly can as Bernie has been doing.... Then maybe this wknd test again?
Is fiance's surgery today?? Wishing him an easy and speedy recovery.

Fit- good to hear from you. That is funny!! Tell hubby that even while TTC'ing, cat scooping isn't good. Will he fall for that?!
You sound good. Thanks for the positive thoughts.. It is always nice to hear from others that motherhood really is my next path. Thank you both! Fit- I really and truly believe it will happen faster for you this time.

Bernie- you sound great. Hope mom keeps feeling better and better. Moody teenager? I see that with my niece and nephew...Whoa. Not an easy stage, is it?! Truly love talking with you and all of you on here.. So nice to meet such nice girls to chat with!

Blu- hope you are enjoying your 2 days off! What are plans for DS's birthday? Glad you feel that 'reset high'.. It is a good feeling!

I took Bernie's advice and danced around yesterday. Though I left my clothes on and didn't open the wine since I am the worst at opening bottles!! Next time I'll do the strip down with wine and have more fun. It did change my low energy!! Great idea.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I am usually working every year and too beat after to celebrate. Fiance's sister is a cop and they have a huge party so he got tickets. Even though I feel low still, having the tickets means I have to go..so this will be a good way to get back out there socially. I have not drank in so many months.. I will be looped in no time. I really need it though. I have so much worry with how my parents have been feeling ill and just need to forget about everything. At this point alcohol is the only solution. DF took off today and he is going to make me an Irish coffee soon......Seriously I just want to be REALLY drunk all day and forget about the past awful months...and everything!

Well, let's hope I behave myself in front of a million drunk cops today. Hopefully I have fun story!

Take care~

Jaspie that sounds verrry promising!!! Waiting a week to test will be tough - time always slows to a crawl. Fx for you!!

Lol Blu DH had better stay away from that hot tub if he knows what's good for him...no reason I can't go in while not pregnant though but he'll throw such a hissy fit if I go while he can't (men are such babies) I'll be the one sneaking out for a dip in my bikini with a glass of vino ha ha.

Have a great day ladies!

 

[bernie86]

Yay! congrats Jaspie!!!! So glad the Dr. gave you the confirmation! Hopie I'm so glad you danced!!! it really does help!! and have a good time at the party, once you are there with a drink in your hand Im sure you will let everything else just fall away! Fit- I think that is so funny, Just tell him happy wife, happy life Blu hope you are enjoying your day. Happy St. Patties day! This Irish girl isn't even getting any corn beef and cabbage today hubs doesn't like it! so Im pretty sure AF is on her way in and my BFN was legit... and If it comes then at least i can enjoy a cocktail in Vegas this weekend for hubbies Birthday.

 

[jaspie]

You lovely bunch! Thank you. I've decided not to test again until Saturday when i have a 30th bday party in the evening so if it's bfn then i can drink. Ended up buying a digi which will arrive tomorrow so might use that on Thursday or Friday. I'd believe a digi as there's surely no way my hcg can be left over and be above 25miu 6 weeks out so I'd believe it was new then. I feel a bit like af is coming too though so we'll see. That would be typical after spending a small fortune on pregnancy tests! At this point I don't think I'll mind if AF comes at least it will be closure and will be reset like Blu then and ready for a normal cycle.

Fit - vino in the hot tub sounds amazing! You deserve it you should totally do that. In secret while DH scoops up the cat box

Hopie - looped! I love that word haha, never heard it before! I hope you have a fab time and get totally looped at the party! Make sure you've got all your supplies of hangover food already in the house so you can just kick back tomorrow.

Bernie - you are going to Vegas?!! Wow so envious I'd looove to go! Hope you have an amazing time and if it is a bfn hope you get looped too! Still early though isn't it?

Happy St Patrick's day everyone! So lovely to have you all to chat to Xx

 

[bernie86]

Jaspie, Yes its still Early, but AF is due tmw, so if she doesn't come before Saturday, then I will remain sober in Vegas just to be safe which wont be that hard, we are going to see shows and maybe some pool time... we are too old for "clubbin" now haha. im not usually anymore than one day late so i'll probably know before we leave

 

[Blu10]

Hey ladies, how are we?
Bernie - have a super time in vegas!!
Hopie - i hope you feel better? Were all set for the big '4' tomorrow! eeek!! Im taking him to cadbury world for the day (healthy eating may well slip lol).
Fit - you enjoy that tub and vino 😉 we wont tell DH, pinky promise! Ha!
Jaspie - the GP is right, step away from the tests.
X

 

[jaspie]

Oooh hope you and ds enjoy Cadbury world I went there when I was younger and loved it! Healthy eating has got to slip for the day. Yummy. I'm away from the tests, promise!

 

[Fit_Mama2Be]

LOL Jaspie and Blu at sneaking off to the hot tub while DH cleans the cat boxes – I love it!!

I have a mental image of leaving the house with my yoga bag (with my bikini and beach towel inside) and yoga mat (with a bottle of wine rolled up inside) and sneaking off to the hot tub…ha ha ha, if DH asks about my wet hair after I’ll just say it was hot yoga…my drunkenness might be a bit harder to explain. Uh oh, he’d have to walk right by the hot tub to take the dirty kitty litter to the dumpster – busted!

I think your attitude is great – either you get a BFP and that is wonderful, or you get a clean slate and a chance to get looped! That’s how I want to try and look at it each month.

Bernie you are still in the running too, FX, and if not you can get looped in Vegas.

Hopie – we will both get to be mothers just yet. I believe in us! I really hope it doesn’t take so long but I appreciate your good vibes. I was overweight with a bunch of health problems when we tried a few years ago – my body was VERY angry with me. Then I lost weight and got in shape, health problems disappeared and my body was happy happy, then along came (surprise) baby when we weren’t trying – coincidence? I hope not!

 

[jaspie]

Fit you have clearly thought about this plan! I like your style!
I had a temp drop this morning so hopefully af will come in the next couple of days. Feeling surprisingly ok with this. At least next time I'll know that any lines i get are new!

 

[hopie2015]

A hot tub sounds perfect right about now!!! Go for it, with the wine.. Hubby can have the wine, at least! Thanks Fit-- that is nice to hear. I do not think either that getting into such great shape and the pregnancy was coincidence. Your being in such fantastic shape will make it happen much faster again!
Jaspie-- sounds like a great plan. Digital on Saturday. and then you will know if you can drink or not at the party! You have a great attitude with this. If it is not now, it will be in the coming few months! Has your fiance had surgery yet?
Bernie- have a wonderful time in Vegas! Which hotel are you going to? So many great ones..and spas. Excited for you. Yes, at least if AF, then you can enjoy some good cocktails in Vegas!

Blu- Cadburyworld sounds so awesome. I have never heard of it.. Maybe it is like Hershey park. I'm going to look it up..want to go there.. I love anything Cadbury! Happy 4th birthday to your little guy!

Now I remember why I don't really drink. Not liking this feeling the next day! 'Looped' i think I heard years ago and started using it recently. Getting looped out of my mind was a good way to describe it yesterday. Was fun to forget everything, act 15 years younger than my age and take pictures with the Ireland, Quebec and UK officers who were at the party! Omg..their accents are soo cool! Fiance said he has never seen me look so happy in a picture in ages.. (I hate photos).. i think it was because I was laughing so hard.

Must go get some hangover food now.. Jaspie- I should have stocked up. Soo windy out there..Alone for next couple days, so hopefully I don't resort to that comfort non-stop eating again!

Bernie- send some LA warmth this way, please? Snow storm again on Friday..the 1st day of Spring!

 

[bernie86]

Haha Hopie! glad you had so much fun!!! and you need to definitely go get a greasy hang over cure!!! I would be glad to send you some of our heat! I much prefer a nice 70* in March, not 85-90*! It will be about 80* in vegas as well! We are staying at the tropicana.... havent stayed there since the remodel, and only choose it because its a hilton and I have loooots of points. hopefully its nice AF is due today, but no sign so far. My plan is if she doesnt show by Friday I will test again so that way I will know before we leave Saturday. hope you are all enjoying hump day!

 

[jaspie]

Hopie that sounds hilarious! So glad you had fun I'm totally going to start using looped!
I got a temp drop this morning so pretty sure af is on the way but that's okay! I think it'll come tomorrow. I can put all this miscarriage stuff behind me then
Oooh Bernie no sign of af yet! Good news! Hopefully both of us will be out of limbo soon one way or another
OH had his op yest and is doing well! I'm actually just my way to see him i can't wait xx

 

[bernie86]

Glad to hear he is doing well jaspie! and Hope you guys have a nice visit! And you are right being out of limbo will be nice. I actually can truly say I'm content either way! Life is good in spite of my loss and ttc again. and I need to trust in God's plan not mine! plus I really hate charting and watching symptoms and OPKs... I just like BDing

 

[hopie2015]

Yay! His surgery is over. Wishing him an easy and speedy recovery!
Great attitude. Seems you feel more as if af on way now. If so, you will
surely feel re-set and definitely an easier time testing next time when you know the lines are new!
Bernie- do you leave tomorrow? Will live vicariously through you.. We had some great trips to Vegas few years back..If you like Thai food.. Lotus of Siam...sooo good!

 

[bernie86]

We are leaving early Saturday and staying through Monday. it will be a nice time with My BIL and SIL joining us as well. Luckily my MIL is able to stay with the furbabies all weekend so I dont have to stress about where to take them

 

[jaspie]

Thanks you guys for your kind thoughts we had a lovely visit thanks, he's doing great
Yep I'm also feeling at peace with af coming, if a bit scared it's going to be super heavy/painful but hey at least that will mean my lining built up okay

Enjoy Vegas Bernie! Sounds amazing!

 

[bernie86]

So the Nausea is strong today!!!! I still dont have any other symptoms really besides bloating and slight cramps that can be AF as well so i dont really count them. I really just want to know already because if im not preggo I'd like some Meds please!!! thats my rant for the afternoon

 

[jaspie]

I was feeling sick with cramps last night too Bernie, i was totally convinced she was coming but today just thick creamy cm and a temp rise? Argh! What is going on! Hope you feel better today. When are you going to test?

 

[Blu10]

Hi my buddies!
Glad to hear AF is still at bay and OH is recovering well Jaspie.
Fit - i totally love the yoga mat idea hahaha.
Bernie - i have my fingers crossed this is your month hunni.
How are you hopie? Xx
