ok so who wants to get pregnant in 2011? (closed group)

[sherylb]

I am quite grateful that it was less expensive b/c we can't afford anything extra with DH being out of work still.

Sheryl and NY: Why are progesterone pills not covered by your insurance?

 

[sherylb]

We had amazing very expensive health insurance until DH lost his job. Now we just have a small individual policy so I paid full price toward our Rx deductible.

 

[nypage1981]

I have no idea why mine didn't. Guess if its not requires they don't believe to pay for it.

 

[Dew]

Thanks ladies.
We have a very good insurance through DH's work so will see when time comes if progesterone pills are covered or not. I had a total of 4 ultrasounds (trans-vaginal/trans-abdominal), actual cost for each was close to $700 but we only paid 10% of that. Sheryl, I am sorry your DH lost his job. It must hurt emotionally as well as financially. Hope he finds one soon.

Nikki, I hope OHs parents decide to contribute to a downpayment for a new house, then you can rent out your current one while you try to get it sellable.

I had a coworker whose parents were quite well off, and after she got married they gave them their downpayment for a house. Well, really they called it an advance on their inherritance. They've done that with their other two children as well, and every tine they give one of them money they cet it added to their will so it's all fair and equal in the end. But if your oh is an only child that's not necessary.

Sarah, I don't temp (yet - my thermometer is on order though!) but I know many who do that know how to adjust their temps if you wake earlier or later than usual. I think add .1 for every half hour early and subtract .1 for every half hour late? Though I'm sure there's a difference if it's *F or *C as well. I'll try to find out for you as I'll need to know. I tend to sleep through alarms.

Preethi - I'm Natalie

 

[nypage1981]

Oh Natalie, I love that name.

We will see about the house situaion. I'm not sure about renting out, leaving us responsible for the house still doeant sound fun. Ugh. But yes, they should help us. Would be awful of them not to. especially since he is their only son well only child. So no sibling rivalry!

I guess you are up and it's time for me to sleep now

 

[Dew]

Sarah: I am not temping now. When I did it was kind of stressful. I used to set alarm and as they say it should be first thing in the morning before you get out of bed so there were times when I held my pee to avoid walking out of bed, kept checking time and basically suffered. Also, many times I used to dream about forgetting to check my temp in the morn and then start to panic in sleep . Still, I did good and my graphs for 3-4 months that I charted were quite consistent and ovulation data matched well with digital readings.

Wish you good luck charting...it is a very important tool to learn about your cycle. To me it was very informational.

 

[flyingduster]

Whew, I only had time to read the 4 pages this morning and no time to reply, I get home again tonight and there's another three pages to read!!! And I'm heading out to a meeting soon so still don't have much time. lol!!


Preethi, my name is Amy! It's nice to see others names too.


My emotions have been EVERYWHERE the past 2 days, I've cried so many times for NO reason. Ugh. But otherwise I've been pretty good, so happy to be into the second tri now, and with the scan photos I've been able to say to some more people "guess what...?" and then just show them the pics! heh. And everyone knows what a scan photo looks like, and what it means, so they see them and know immediately.

Anyway, I gotta head out, to all!!!

 

[Huggles]

First scan in 5h30!

As for names - i'd rather not mention my real name on the forum if that's ok - i like the anonymity.

 

[nypage1981]

Preethi I think there similar, but they are all so different its hard to compare. They both look like babies!

 

[MummyCat]

Helllooooooooooooooooo.... sorry I've not been on... had a rough time lately! Thanks for all your well wishes!

Welcome Kylie!! Hope you get your BFP soon! xx

Preethi... yep as Sarah mentioned, I'm Catherine... though get called Cath, Cat, Katy... so not fussed what you call me
Your scan of baby is gorgeous... so so cute!! xx

Sarah, I think you'll have a BFP soon! but it's a good idea to get your head around all the options available! x

Natalie... any symptoms hun?? Hope the next week doesn't drag too much and we have some good news from you soon!

Huggles... good luck today! Thinking of you!! xxx

to everyone xxx

I walked to the bathroom with it in my mouth on those days. The bathroom is part of our bedroom for us so it wasn't very far and didn't make a difference.

 

[babyhopes2323]

i love the name Amy flying.. its so nice.. i think i might consider it even !

thanks Mummy.. aka Catherine ! its nice to know names !

Mummy.. congratulations on week 11 !! woop woop. xx

flying, i totally know what you mean about emotions.. ive had a massive headache today and all im doing is whining and complaining.. it dosent help that its 37 degrees and the AC in my car is playing up and so ive had a bad day.. its only 5:30pm but i just want to crash for sometime before i lose it.. i dont want to take paracetomol or anything even though ive got a banging headache, might just rest and then try some tea instead.. xx

[sarahincanada]

yay thats a great shot!

huggles good luck today

I just read through the posts quickly, I have to get to work so just a quick update. I met my friend last night and she told me her and her husband are divorcing! I was so shocked. they've been together 14 years, he has always been a bit stubborn and difficult but she has always made the best of it. 6 months ago he started being worse and quite mean to her. she found out he had cheated. they went to therapy but he has fallen out of love. I was so so shocked, so we didnt talk about much else. I told her we were trying but didnt feel right to ask about ivf. she is 50 next month and has to start all over, but she doesnt seem 50 if you know what I mean, she is young looking and fit, so Im hoping she will end up meeting someone who would treat her like she deserves.

Im booking 3 reflexology treatments this week and next, and have a massage on friday too....that should keep me sane while I wait for O! going to also try and start exercising this week as my back is getting better after 5 chiro apts, and have 2 more this week. I feel like a fat blob after my op and then hurting my back, I havent moved around much for the past month

hope everyone has a great day!

 

[nypage1981]

Preethi- maybe you are dehydrated? with all that heat, the headaches usually come on when you need more water. Try it out and hopefully you start to feel better.

Sarah- Sorry about your friend, that is so scary. It is one of the reasons I am so afraid of marriage...just the whole thinking forever and then one day you realize you aren't even in love. So so scary.

So now that you are in a new cycle, are you being a good little temperature taker?

Dew- you should walk to the bathroom with it in! Funny you'd have such a bad time with it though...sounds like a lot of stress to you. I did for a few days, then got BFP. Lol. Guess my body didn't wanna have to deal with that either.

Cat-you ok? You say had a rough time lately- hope you just mean with the cold and stuff. I feel a cough deep down in my chest forming lightly and am afraid I may be catching hold of something too Hope you are well.

Natalie- do you test or do you just wait for AF to come? I never was a POASA because AF would always come so it costed less! Hope yours doesn't, we are ready for another BFP in here!

Amy- I cry or whine constantly lately. Its annoying. Next minute im mad because ive felt vulnerable.

Welcome Kylie- good luck!

Good morning others who haven't checked in yet.
