Thanks for sharing everyone...love seeing all the pics! Everyone has such adorable bumps

Yesterday was a rough day. I had already found out a couple of months ago that my best friend of 25 years is pregnant...and I was finally starting to not be so jealous of her for it (Awful of me, I know)And then last night I found out another friend is 6 weeks pregnant with her second baby. Of course, stupid me, I tried talking to DH about how it depresses me feeling like babies are everywhere and it's not happening for me. His answer? "Well, you've had 3 children and she's only had 1, so her parts are probably still good and fresh".He wasn't trying to be mean or anything when he said it, but I couldn't believe my ears. I was already so depressed and he would say something that uncaring. He made that comment I was thinking to myself that my friend is like 7 years older than me! My parts are "fresher" than hers, lol. Anyway, I just cried myself to sleep and today hasn't been much better.

Just wanted to vent. Am I over reacting or was that something to be hurt over?

 

[mrsc81]

Men just have no idea sometimes, i would of been upset about that too.
Hope tomorrow is a better day for you

Oh Bethany I'm sorry. I would have been hurt by that comment too. I agree with Louise sometimes men don't think before they speak and can be so insensitive. I know he didn't mean anything by it but it doesn't make it hurt any less. I'm sorry. Your parts are still fresh and your time is coming I just know it.

 

[Diddums]

Aww Beth, men just don't think before they talk and don't truly appreciate how hard this is for us. I would have been so hurt by his comments again. Try not to read into it too much hugs xxx

AFM small temp rise the morning and bbs still hurt so I guess I'm not out just yet. Will see whether I start spotting today. Which I am totally expecting.

My legs are soooooo sore from walking lunges last night! I can't sit on the loo without any pain lol. I'm going again tonight so hope I can work though the pain xxx

Ive had that many of times, in fact because of my lack of exercise through pregnancy i had it on monday after painting on sunday, you want to throw yourself on the loo so you dont have to bend your legs
It will get better though, you will get used to it, you might want to leave the lunges for a few days, give the muscles time to heal.

 

[Diddums]

Thanks. I wasn't sure whether I should do lunges again today, or leave it again until tomorrow or Saturday? It's actually quite fun and the guy was lovely and made me really excited about the exercise.

Feeling a bit off today. A mixture of very slight heartburn and not quite nausea but like something isn't sitting right. No idea lol. Should get my pregesterone levels back today. Slight nervous about it. Hopefully it will be higher than last month but I have a feeling it won't be as I had it done at 7dpo instead of 6dpo and my LP is nowhere near 14 days!

 

[Diddums]

Oops double post!

 

[mrsc81]

Yeah i would leave it until there a bit less sore, you dont want to keep tearing down the muscles as they need time to repair and you will just be in constant pain, they will heal quicker each time.
Good luck with your test results, will check back later to see what they are

 

[Rachel789]

Good luck with the results Katya!

Bethany- men really don't think sometimes about what they say. It isn't a matter of how many kids you have had its about your age. Try not to let it bother you, I know with all the steps your taking your bfp is coming very soon!

 

[Diddums]

Well, as expected my progesterone is low at 13nmol. Still upset even though I expected it. And I've started spotting so AF here tomorrow or Friday. Hope th FS appointment has a positive outcome!

Off to the gym I go

 

[mrsc81]

At least you can go to your appointment armed with your 2 cycles progesterone results Hope friday brings good news!

 

[Diddums]

Thanks hoping I ovulate around the same time next cycle. At least my cycles have shortened and this cycle will be 28/29 days which is fab. Just hoping for something to increase LP. My progesterone came back 12, 15, 13nmol for the last three cycles. Good proof of low progesterone.

 

[mrsc81]

oh youve had it tested 3 cycles i only remembered twice

 

[Diddums]

Hehe yes. I'm amazed I've ovulated three months in a row. I think I will ask her whether its worth have progesterone tested at 4/5dpo to see whether my levels are high?

Hoping she will listen.

Gym tonight was good. Did strength, resistance, and a bit of cardio, but withheld the lunges, just too painful after squatting lol

 

[bnporter81]

Thank you girls so much for your kind words and support. Having you all to talk to means so much to me

I know men say lots of stupid things from time to time. It just seems like sometimes it gets to you more than others, ya know?

Katya, I'm sorry that AF seems to be on the way. You've come such a long way with your weight loss and your cycles regulating. I know it won't be long before you get your BFP. Keeping FX'd for a GREAT outcome at your appt.

 

[mrsc81]

How did your appointment go Katya?

 

[cmwilson]

It's been quiet on here ...how's everyone doing?

 

[bnporter81]

Yeah, it has been quiet...nothing new here.

How did it go, Katya?

 

[Rachel789]

It is quiet!

Everything is going well here. Dh and I fly up to Philly this weekend, my mil is throwing us a shower. Then I have a shower at home in march that my mom is throwing.

Been feeling decent but lately my lower back has started hurting hoping that problem is not here to stay. I am sitting at my desk working with a heating pad on my back, it helps a little to sooth it.

I hope everyone else is doing well!

 

[mrsc81]

Yes i second that, my back is killing! I cant stand for very long until it really starts to hurt.. I also feel like im starting to waddle
Hope you have a lovely shower Rachel
