light hearted ttc

I spent a lot of the night researching places closer but cannot find a decent hospital :wacko: It just feels wrong going to a hospital that has reviews saying they don't respect your wishes and make you feel like you're a bad mother for not taking drugs to speed labour. I don't wanna be treated badly... so I'm at a loss of what to do. :wacko:


I hope you ladies are doing well! :flower:
 
Ashley-Maybe you should research the hospitals with DH together and therefore he can see the pros and cons just like you do so therefore he wont think that you are just saying you don't want to go nowhere closer. It usually takes men seeing the info in order to be understanding.

AFM, im on cd38 and DH will be back home tomorrow yay :happydance: Missed him dearly. Im going to be busy with school work today and finish the final touches of cleaning up so dh can come into a freshly fresh, clean house. Kinda hard to keep clean because Ellie loves to play around and knock stuff over :haha: But I cant wait to see DH. Today, im going to call a few other places to see if they are hiring but we shall see. DH and I video chatted yesterday and just from seeing him, I felt like a little girl in high school with a crush and he finally recognized me. I couldn't start blushing and smiling so I can just imagine how we will act once we see each other. Im still waiting to ovulate. Gyn appt is in 2 weeks so Im just ready to get the help we been longing for.
 
It must be awful trying to pick hospitals in the uk it's more straight forward than that you pick the nearest lol but my hospital is a little further but that's where I've had all my children so would change it. I think Patrice is right let him look with you! Xxx
 
Welcome Claire!!! I was suppose to say that in the last post but I totally forgot :dohh: Nice to have you here. Wow ttc no. 5 that's great. Im still ttc no. 1 :haha:
 
Welcome Claire.

Hello ladies, sorry I've not been on here much. Next week is my last week of maternity leave. I'm so gutted its nearly over. I'm really trying to cram in so much before I go back to work.
Darcy is doing brilliantly, she has her two bottom teeth now and is really trying to crawl. We have wooden floors so she drags herself along with her arms!!
 
Thanks for the advice :) He finally just told me to pick wherever I am comfortable with, not sure if he really means it... but if he does he'll be getting a butt load of cookies :haha: :haha:

Susi, oh wow Darcy growing so fast!! :)

Claire, yes it should be easy but not all the hospitals are midwife friendly, a lot are just doctors or ob gyns... and I prefer a more natural way to go, but not quite confident for a birth centre incase I want an epidural ahahhaha
 
i managed to get cute pictures of timothy so i thought i would share :D

Ashley-yay for being able to pick the hospital. :happydance:

Susi-Wow Darcy is growing up rather quickly :thumbup:

Magic-I love love love your rabbit! Adorable :cloud9:
 
Ashley - Yay! That is a nice turn around!

Patrice - Glad that your husband will be coming home soon. My husband was away for a month to visit his family and it was really bad, especially when I had to keep it a secret from family.

Susi - Awww. I wish Zachary had teeth. He has none right now but can crawl pretty well. He still cant sit on his own though without crouching his back and using his hands for support. Kinda weird how he cant do the basics but advanced to crawling.

Afm, I am on cd30. I went to a support center today to get a pregnancy test and it was negative. Which means my cycle is wacky. Oh well, this will be my second period after all. I think I need it to regulate first before really ttc. I played around with my husband today and told him I was pregnant, and he got excited, poor guy. I was being mean!
 
thank you :D

i put ore pictures on my journal :cloud9: he has moments were he dosen't mind his mum taking pictures of him and others he can't stand it so i have to take pictures when i can!
 
Lily, why would you hafta keep it a secret your dh being away? and you shoulda waited for april fools to say it haha


Patrice, awww I hate it when my DH hasta go away, thankfully he doesn't have any trips coming up yet.
 
Lily-Why you had to keep it a secret?

Ashley-Thanks.

Magic-I've always wanted a rabbit but ended up always getting dogs :haha:

AFM, im cd39 today. My temp went up but I think it was a fluke. I was drinking yesterday so I think that's why my temp went up today. We will see what tomorrow's temp looks like. DH comes home today so im happy about that also. Well, that's it for me for now.
 
well oh has gone to a stag do for 2 days, he has only gone a couple of hours and i miss him already
 
Zachary was only 5 months when dh left and we had to keep it a secret otherwise my mom would make us come stay with her for an entire month and I don't like it esp when we paying rent.

Ashley I don't think I can wait til April's fool, I might get pregnant by then.

I swear I saw some spotting last time I used the bathroom, but now I don't see anything. Just hope af will be here soon.
 
Aww magicwhisper ur bunny is so cute! I had a bunny called whisper once! I also work as a nursery nurse how odd.. Whats even stranger is that my oh is also going away this weekend for 2 nights for a stag do! :haha:
ashley i also had my baby at a hosp slightly further away as it also had birth centre facilities. My oh didnt get it at first but once i showed him why he came around.. Is he the one doing the driving? Think this is why my oh didnt like the idea!

Welcome claire !
 
Jo, yes he is going to be doing the driving, which means taking a day off once a month til birth pretty much. I mean I got my learners but there is no way I have the confidence to drive at a high speed on the highway yet. He isn't fond of driving either. But yes I tried to tell him my reasonings for why I'm comfortable going there, I mean obviously if it was like an hour or more away I'd find something closer, but when all the hospitals are roughly the same distance it doesn't make sense. Also the amount we pay would be the same too.

AFM I'm trying to just relax and try to enjoy the pregnancy even though its a secret from a lot of people. :baby:
 
Ashley - once a month is not that bad considering he's doing it for his baby.

Afm, today is cd2. I had some spotting yesterday so I guess that would be cd1 right? Last night I had a stupid fight with my husband and I tried to kick him out to the living room by locking the bedroom door and the bathroom door (he can get into the room through the bathroom), but we have cheap doors so he got in anyway. He tried touch me but I kicked him. He has been working all day from monday because his co worker is on vacation and he needs to cover for him. I have been exhausted by taking care of Zack, cooking, and taking the dogs out. He comes home and Zachary is all happy climbing over him on bed and he plays with the kid for a bit. I thought he could take care of Zachary so I could take a shower. Zachary just had a feed and was bouncing on the bed and he threw up and gave me a cheeky grin. My husband started getting mad and was like "why did you cancel the docs appointment". I told him cuz I didnt see any problems today so I wanted to wait. He called me lazy.

So I changed Zachary and he went and changed his shirt. When he got back I asked if he could watch Zachary so I could shower. He told me to go. After about 5 minutes he started scowling at me asking why I'm cruising around and not in the shower. He said I need to hurry up so he can hand back Zachary and go finish his food. I told him to just give me back Zachary then and go do what he wants. He kept fighting with me and wont hand Zachary back. I said its time for Zachary to sleep...blah blah blah.

In the end he handed him back without calling me a name. He called me a loud mouth. I got mad and said he talks so much like a dog barking...and he said fuck you.

Gosh I hate my husband sometimes and these are the times I am grateful that I dont have another one on the way.
 
Ashley-I think everything will work out with the hospital. If you put it that way...then the hospital you went to before shouldn't be a problem.

Lily-Wow the arguments we got to go through. Hope you feeling better and hopefully your dh comes around! :hugs:

AFM, im on cd40 today. Looks like this is going to be another long cycle. I picked DH up last night and as you can tell by my chart...we have been dtd since he has arrived home :haha: My theory was right, yesterday's temp was a fluke and due to me drinking. In a way I am happy because atleast now I can catch ov if it happens because dh is here :happydance: Well that's all for now.
