light hearted ttc

Hi everyone!

How are you all? Sorry I've been away (yet again!) I've been having struggles within myself and couldn't face a lot of things! I'm slowly getting better but still on the mend.

Sooo what's happened?....

With me a number of things!
1-I got married to the love of my life! :-D
2-after a lot of stupid struggles they have FINALLY found that I've got gall stones! After 3 ultrasounds, 1 MRI scan, 3 A&E trips, a misdiagnosis of calcium being taken from my ribs, and goodness knows how many painkillers!
3- I've had a major falling out with certain members of my family

AND....today I have gotten a BFP on a test!!!!!!!! I'm so excited. I have an appointment with the dr tomorrow anyway to discuss my gall bladder and whether I'm ready to go back to work (been signed off for about 2 months now) so will be taking it and seeing what she says. I don't know if the line came up within the time limit which is the worrying thing as I forgot about it but I've never had a line at all whether it be in the limit or a day or so after (I'm always nosy about whether it will evap or not). I've been having crazy symptoms so fingers crossed. I'm excited but trying not to get my hopes too high. If this is real we conceived on our wedding night/Morning after! We'll just have to wait and see. I'll keep you ladies informed.

Those who have my Facebook please don't mention anything on there :-)

On another note 6days till our honeymoon in SPAIN!!! :-D

Xoxo
 
Today I just got a bfp too. Holy what is with this thread!! seriously its kinda lucky :wacko: but guys how do I tell my hubby?!?!

And Katie you looked gorgeous at your wedding! (I saw pics on fb :haha: )
 
I finally told him in a letter and told him to go read it, he took it better then I thought. But he's just quiet so I'm unsure what to think.
 
Katie-That's great news!!!! Congrats!!!!

Ashley-Congrats wow another baby! That's great!

AFM, im on cd7. AF left the building yesterday and DH and I celebrated by dtd. It has been awhile since we have been able to dtd since I had a double whammy which was the surgery and AF. But I am glad to say that 6 days post surgery and im almost back to normal. I am able to dance around to a certain extent and im able to walk and drive etc. Im back to doing my normal routine. I am still a little sore but other than that I am fine. I have been taking my prenatal vitamins and I plan on going to see the ob/gyn while dh is away on his detachment aug. 7th-23rd. So I can get all the things I need done so I can be ready for when he comes back :thumbup: Also, I have my apt to speak with the college advisor tomorrow at 3pm so school is moving along :thumbup: My friend also is moving up here sooner than later which is great because now I don't have to feel alone when DH leaves for his deployment next year and I will have a school buddy :happydance: I have started temping so you ladies can keep up with my cycles via the chart in my siggy because as you can see. I don't be on as much as I use to be. Now Im feeling good and because of that...I did my own hair. 6 hours to do it myself but I have completed it. I did it yesterday.
 
Katy and Ashley, wowee congratulations to you both. Katy, that's so lovely to conceive on your wedding night too. Looking forward to hearing lots of updates.

Dom is so cute!

On Sunday my OH and I took Darcy for her first swimming lesson. It's at the local hospital in the hydrotherapy pool so it's nice and warm and calm. There is no more than 6 babies in the class too. She loved it! It's a 9 week course for half an hour each week.
 
Patrice, that's good that you're feeling better now :) And the chart didn't show in your sig..


Susi, awww I always wanted to take Cassidy for some swimming lessons, but dh vetoed it, now she's kinda scared of water, I mean she doesn't mind if I hold her, but there's NO way she'd be ok with swimming on her own just yet.


AFM, I feel SO much better now that I told my DH, I finally was able to sleep last night. It feels so weird this time, as there wasn't months of temping or anything..
 
Oo congrats Ashley!!

:-D

Well I don't know what to think. Went to the drs this morning. She basically told me I really need to lose weight which will hopefully sort out my gall bladder. I'm on a phased return to work after my holiday. And I got a bfn on her test! My DH says that my urine was really not that concentrated (basically very clear sorry tmi!) and he is sure that I am pregnant. Even the dr said to keep an eye on it cos of my issues with my cycles could affect testing but she says it being neg is for the best with my health issues at the moment. Well we will just have to wait and see but I'm feeling pretty down right now :-(
 
Noooo!! Well if you got a bfp then it can't be wrong!! That's what I've learned anyways!! So best of luck!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!!
I would say buy some cheap tests and in about 2 days test again using morning pee. :thumbup: :hugs:
 
Thanks Ashley :-) I'm thinking of doing another test on Sunday just before our honeymoon :-)

hopefully it will be a big bfp!
 
No I'm kinda putting that off at the moment, as here they won't even see me til I'm atleast 9 weeks, especially since I'm not high risk or anything. So currently just trying to work through my emotions, I mean I am happy that there will be another baby it was just way more shocking this time around LOL!!
 
Ahh I can imagine being shocked if you weren't even trying! It always seems surreal that we all go through the TTC that can be such a rollercoaster and then sometimes, it just happens!

Hows your DH handling it? Has he spoken to you yet?

I'm so excited for you! :-)

Just last night he told me that I need to find a dif hospital as the other one is a bit too far from us. But theres really not a rush just yet and I'm so pessimistic I just want it to stick!
AFM... a bit of a tmi but I'm having HORRIBLE diarrhea Its quite awful as I kinda hafta RUN to the bathroom and pray that the LO isn't getting into anything.
 
Massive congrats Ashley and Katie! It kinda makes me want to be pregnant again. I had the surprise of my life today. Guess who got their period again, this girl! Not a big deal really, but I havent had my period for a longgg time so its good to have it back, especially when that means I can ttc again anytime I want. I kinda want to wait until Zachary's 1st birthday though because we are planning a big party for him and I want to have the energy for it.
 
Oh my gosh ladies what news!! Cant believe i didnt check in earlier!

Congrtas Ashley i cant believe it! Were u ntnp? Wow be careful what u wish for ay :haha: i didnt even kno u suspected anything! Soo happy for u..
Katie wow what a welcome back u havebeen busy :haha: did u do another test is it official?!
I sure hope so :hugs:

afm well im not having a great day, last night i badly trapped my finger in my new pushchair trying to open it the first time, and it bloody hurts :( i was screaming in pain which lo for some reason found hilarious :dohh: she has been a pain all day and woken up crying after half an hr for both her naps, when she normally naps 2 hrs and wakes up chatting. so shes been well grumpy and taken over an hr to get to sleep tonight. Im shattered and feeling a little down.
 
Hi ladies,
Ashley, I'm really looking forward to reading about your new journey! We are going to wait a couple of years before ttc again.
Katy, let us know how you get on. It's very rare to get a false bfp. Good luck hub.
This heat is so intense at the moment. Darcy is just wearing a nappy while we are indoors. Did anyone else on the UK have thunder and lightening today? Poor Darcy jumped out of her skin!!!
Did I tell you she got her first tooth the other day? I think the other bottom front tooth is coming too.
 
awh bless her!

thunder and lightning is scared little timothy he was jumping out his skin last night we had to put music on and leave the lights on to help him. he was soon fine though
 
AFM, its cd8 today and im feeling good. I called my doc today so I can get a referral to see an ob/gyn. Im finally making the moves to better my health and finally get all the problems fixed so we can have our baby. Since im going to be out of work for the next 5 weeks, Im using this time to take care of myself since I have the time. Between school and going back and forth to the docs, Im pretty sure I will be a busy bee for now. Well that's it for me...no real update other than that.
