:D Night night babyhopes... it's 20:31 here in the UK...

Hope you all have a good day!! :hugs:
 
It is 235 pm here on wed the 2nd!

Flying- I have had the spotting for over a week:(
 
Wow there are a lot of posts!

Ny, happy birthday! And I hope your bean sticks. How horrible to spent your whole first tri worrying over whether you'll lost the baby, it seems like it should be such a happy time, but I know for so many it's just stressful. And I can't help but worry (see I'm doing it already) that I will worry throughout my pregnancy too (when it happens, not if) cause I'm just a worrier by nature.

I've already forgotten pretty much everything else... sorry. I have a hard time focusing sometimes.
 
Oh, NDH- I tell ya, its amazing how naive I was through my preg before it MC. Now im insane. I wouldnt be so bad if I didnt have all the same signs of MC. Ugh.....I would love to just enjoy a pregnancy for once!
I see you are PMS- what a lovely feeling:) On to the next cycle, you can do it!
 
Thanks - and ya it would be so incredibly hard to see all the same signs as before and fear it is all happening again :hugs:

CD3 today, and I've thrown out all my opks and hpts and I'm not even tracking AF or BD or ov on my iPhone at all this month. Took off my ov ticker too, and as soon as AF leaves (probably tomorrow) I'm going to try to forget what CD I'm even on and try not to even think about getting pregnant.

sounds like a plan, if you know TTC is stressing you out best to not monitor at all.

this is somewhat off topic but after my dad died I would comfort eat. I put on weight then I would try and diet as I was miserable about putting on weight. Being miserable would make me want to eat more so it was a vicious cycle. Ive spent years half assed dieting, then binging, dieting then binging. It was driving me crazy as Im an intelligent person, have a successful business and life, but this one thing I couldnt control.

I finally went to see a therapist and the first thing he told me was to not diet. Allow myself to eat what I want when I want. It was scary and at first you want to eat all the forbidden foods. But after a while, when you can have anything you want you dont want it as much. So its been about 4 months and my eating is so much better.

I also stopped weighing myself as most of the time you are unhappy with the results (rarely do you lose that much day by day). If you havent lost or if you have gained you feel negative which feeds the binging feelings. Its all been quite liberating...because I havent known my weight I can only go by how I look and feel. I work out every night and I now find I look in the mirror and think I have lost weight and that spurs me on. In reality Im the same weight (weighed for preop). Im hoping the weight will start going down as I am not binging anymore and I have stepped up my exercise, but regardless my mind is much healthier.

anyway I guess why Im telling you this as it reminds me of TTC. If you stop monitoring everything Im sure your mind and body will calm itself and that could lead to conceiving without knowing. There are so many stories of people giving up then getting their bfp, my best friend is one of those stories. Im silently sending you babydust :flower:
 
NY, you know I'm hoping and praying for you that it's NOTHING to worry about and you and your bean are FINE...!! :hugs:

NDH, it sounds like a good plan, I think sometimes we worry ourselves silly trying to get it perfect that it's a lot better if we quit stressing and just enjoy ourselves! Good luck...
 
I know that "relax and stop trying so hard" is the last thing someone who is TTC - but I think it really is what I need. And as it's virtually impossible to just stop thinking about babies and being pregnant, I have do get busy and distract myself. So I've taken up sewing again, which I haven't done in years but I love.
 
I haven't finished anything yet - only got as far as printing and cutting the pattern yesterday, and today I pinned and cut the fabric, and bought my zipper and thread. I'm making a linen sundress to start out with, and then I'm on the lookout for cheap cotton bolt ends to make a couple of funky aprons. I'll be posting pictures and stuff in my journal (link in my siggy).
 
Ny, i do hope you feel better. im still half worrying although theres nothing much i can do now except wait for the 23rd, 8 week scan, just seems so far away but im sure if i keep myself busy ill be able to wait for it. do you have another scan appointment to check everything? i know you've had the HB appointment.

anything else ?
 
Baby- think i'll call today and see if they can get me in for a scan. Im not like bleeding heavily or anything just some brown here and there but for 2 weeks seems like a bit much so I want to see if I still have a baby or not before the weekend comes. Nervous.
 
Sheryl, yay for the 2ww now.. hopefully good news at the end of the wait ! FX'D

Ny, im sure everything will be ok, i know it is so unsettling, but just look up the internet on leukorhhea, its very common, and bless you its not red bleed or heavy period like so chances are , everything is perfectly fine !

FX'D and let us know !! i went for that early scan and i still got another doc who asked me to come in on the 8th, because she thought i would be 6wk 6 days, but she dosent know that i went in for another scan and now im 5wk and 1 day, will be 5wk 6days on the 8th and ive taken the chance of booking an appointment for another scan, although theres no need, and probably wont see fetal pole, thats what im looking for actually

lets hope she gives me the scan and im able to see something.

awww good luck! we are keeping everything crossed for you :hugs:
 
Thanks girls. So far, i ran some errands naughty me, and have just left a message for my doctor now. SOOooo may be a little late today but maybe they will squeeze me in..who knows. I will just wait for a call.

Baby- is your next scan at the good hospital? They will most likely not see much that early on but could do blood work im sure!
 
No Ny, its not at the american hospital, its at another private hospital close to my mums. im hoping to see a fetal pole atleast. i kn ow i wont be able to see anything else. the thing is, when i asked another doc about blood work, she said why are you bleeding for me to do a blood work to check your count? dont be paranoid was what she said., they will do blood work if they feel suspicious or want to confirm something. otherwise, im guessing its scans and the normal way round .

ive been reading on all this blood work thing, your doctors do in the US and other places but so far, the doc i went to did a whole antenatal blood work check up for thyroid, RH , hiv, hepatits etc, the usual thing,and everything seemed perfectly fine.

dont know ?
