Welcome Mangokiss. You've come to the right place. There are only two of us left on this thread who have not got our s yet, and you now make the third. I hope it happens for you soon, as this is a very lucky thread.

hi everyone

[nypage1981]

Get rest Sarah glad all went well!

 

[NDH]

Aww bless, you've only just had an op Sarah and you're already on bnb. Rest up and take it easy.

 

[babyhopes2323]

hey sarah.. great, your done, its over and im sure youll be fine.. take some rest !! xx

 

[flyingduster]

sheesh Sarah, GO TO BED girl!!! lol. NDH is right, you've only just had an op and you're woozy! Sleep it off hun, and rest up. You'll need to make up for lost time with plenty of BD in another week!! hehehehe. Sooo pleased for you that it's gone though!


Baby, I've heard asprin thins the blood and mucus, so is useful to take if clots are a problem. BUT I'd want to talk to a doctor about it, as you don't want it to cause you to bleed more than you should too!!!

You're probably right, I'm feeling fine cos I haven't had *any* scans yet. I have had one doctors appointment (where he took bloods and that's it. I never even got the results! lol) and one midwife appointment, but that's it. So for all I know the thing died at 6 weeks and I'd have nooooooooooo idea. lol! And if it has, then so be it. Sure I'll be upset and feel like crap, but I'll be ok. I obviously am far more excited about getting to see my baby for the first time than worrying about it being dead! Soooooo can't wait for this next stage!!!

nypage - have you tried taking your prenatals at lunch time?
I've heard that they can make people feel very nauseous, especially if taken on an empty stomach. I take mine at lunch time (because I take thyroid meds in the morning and iron affects the absorption of the thyroid meds if taken at the same time), so by then i've already eaten breakfast and a midmorning snack. Then i eat half my lunch, drink my prenatals, and then eat the rest. Maybe try that for a few days and see if it helps the nausea?

Babyhopes, good luck with your scan today! Hope the cramping has stopped.

Sarah - wohoo for no more polyp!

Flyingduster - well done on finishing that beanie!

Welcome Mangokiss

Hope eveyrone else is well.

Morning!!

Welcome Mangokiss Have you been able to get help from your doctor yet?? My friend has a 3 year old and they had no trouble conceiving her, but now they're struggling. They've been trying for over a year, but the docs aren't even bothered to try help. They want to test her blood, to check prgesterone, but have had her tested in the wrong time in her cycle! theey haven't even bothered to talk to her about her cycle, because when I asked her simple questions, like when in your cycle do you ovulate, how long are your cycles it became very obvious.. her luteal phase is between 8-10 days and it should be 12-14... no chance she can fall pregnant with a luteal phasse that short! If the docs had just asked the right questions, they might have been able to sort the issue out already!!

Hope you have better luck soon! will be praying for your BFP!!

SARAH!! no more polyp!! Looking forward to reading about the op and your experience... make sure you rest and get that body ready for and egg catching!!

Preethi... I'm on baby aspirin. My doc put me on that and 5mg of folic acid after the chemical i had in January. it's supposed to help blood flow to the uterus and help form a more hospitible lining for the egg to implant in... also supposed to help with the placenta. according to my doc and lots I've read.

That said.. i wouldn't suggest you take it unless your doc recommends it, because you're already on a lot of stuff.

My midwife should be here in about 10 min... so I'm off!!

Mike's taken Lottie to the docs! she's been sick in the night again!

to everyone else!!

 

[Huggles]

Sorry Lottie was sick again. I'm glad she's going to the doctor. Hope they can sort it out soon

Yay for midwife coming!

 

[MummyCat]

Midwife not here yet... good job I'm not going anywhere today!

Mike's back from docs... Lottie has a tummy bug! Have stuff to give her and need to keep her off protein for 24 hours!

Mike's got a problem, doc is worried about him. His cholesterol is the issue. His good cholersterol is too low and his bad cholesterol is too high! he's only 28!! so he has to do a food diary!

PS... he's not hugely overweight either... maybe about 5kg's... so hardly much to shout about!

 

[Huggles]

Sorry to hear Lottie's got a tummy bug, but glad she's got something to stop it. I've never heard of staying off protein for 24 hours for a tummy bug? Oh well, if it helps then i guess it definitely can't hurt!

Not so good about Mike. I hope he will be able to control the cholesterol via diet. My dad was told his cholesterol was much too high (he was very overweight though and is pushing 60), so he changed his diet completely and started eating really really healthily and all the right stuff for cholesterol etc. He lost a lot of weight. Went back - no change to the cholesterol levels! Then the doctor said that it's just genetic and can't be controlled with diet, only with meds (which my dad refuses to take!).

 

[MummyCat]

Thanks hun... I guess by protein they basically mean for us to not give her her bottles etc.. dont think bits of meat would be too much of an issue, but I can understand that dairy might be troublesome!

The reason Mike got his checked was because his younger sister had hers done and she's got an issue... she's 26 and a size 10. She eats healthily too.. so we're thinking there's something genetic here!

Hopefully once he's done a food diary they can tweak his diet a little! We eat quite healthily in any case.. but i know when he's in the office they head out to the pub for lunch.. so that doesn't help, but he says he normally chooses something light!

Midwife has been... I'm booked in to see a consultant at the hospital at 14 weeks. Will have my scan before then and need to see the MW in 2 weeks to get my bloods done.

The consultant I'll see is the same one I saw to discuss induction! He also popped in to our room when Lottie was born to check up on her (she got distressed in labour) we ended up with 3 Doctors and 5 midwives in our teeny tiny little room I was so knackered I hardly paid much attention, but Mike was a bit like

 

[Huggles]

oh yes, no bottles definitely does make sense!

If Mike's sister has a problem with her cholesterol and he now does too then it most likely is genetic.

Glad the midwife came and you've got your appointments booked.
Lottie's birth sounds like quite an experience!

 

[MummyCat]

Yeah... def think it's got something to do with genetics, but will be interesting to see if there's something really wrong that he's eating!

Lottie's birth was good.. she just ended up coming out facing the wrong way... so was back to back. I had episiotomy and forceps delivery as they had to rush to get her out in the end. If I didn't have an epidural, it would have been emergency c section under general anesthetic... but days later I would have done it all over again! I have nothing but good feelings about the birth.. even though I had everything i didn't want on my birth plan!

 

[babyhopes2323]

Thanks mummy and flying and huggles for your suggestions x

Been to this doc today and loved him! He knows what he's talking about and I really like him... I think I've found my ob gym

Good news is..........he couldn't fond a hematoma on my scan so it's probably healed!!!!!!!!!

So excited,saw bubs n ickle arms n head was so cute!!


On the contrary my silly dh has confused me again saying so how come one doc found your clot and this one can't see it? Bit strange he asks!

Why can't I heal? Was my answer!

Ive got my injection and scan due with lady doc who found my hematoma on Saturday morning and. I was ready to switch doctors and go to the guy I liked today for injections on Saturday until my dh said what he did and it is now forcing me to go to her for the injection and scan and get a double confirmation that it's really gone. I'm so afraid of going as I'm worried I'll be shattered if she says it's still there. That would then mean the ob gyn I found today was wrong and my worries aren't over yet.

In such a fix but sure enough I know myself and just to prove dh wrong and give myself some mental peace, I will be going to her on Saturday with fingers crossed hoping it's really gone !

Say a prayer for me ladies

Sorry about Lottie and mike mummy, hope she gets better an it's good that mike knows about his cholesterol levels from early on, helps in taking care for the future xxx

Sarah hope ur feeling better xxx

 

[Huggles]

I'm really glad you found a doctor you like babyhopes! That's really great. And brilliant that he couldn't find the clot. I'm so sure it must have disappeared!

I would probably also go back to the other lady on saturday, just for a double confirmation. But fx'd it really is healed and she won't be able to find it either!

 

[nypage1981]

Yay for good news baby! So the baby measured all good and everything? I bet it means its all gone- you still bleeding? Also, did they decide then a while back that it was the hematoma and NOT another sac, right?

 

[nypage1981]

Huggles- I bought children's chewable vitamins but think that i'll wait later in the morning to take them....I am afraid to wait til lunch though because im supposed to do vitamins separately from my progesterone so they said vits in morning and progesterone at night....

 

[babyhopes2323]

no ny, i had the clot and the sac. the doc says the sac is still there and will take a while to go away, the bleeding episode i once had was because of the clot for sure which he says is not visible on the scan so it must have healed. i bled only once so im not having any bleeding now. and knock on wood' ive had no brown spotting or discharge also today, but im not going to get all excited because i dont want to jinx it. im so anxious to confirm it that ive got a 7:30am appointment tomorrow with the doc who told me i had a clot to confirm that its gone. i would be so devasted if it hasnt gone yet. because i was clearly told no hematoma today.


so cant wait for tomorrow morning. dh has got a big oil company dinner do and fireworks where everyone brings their wives and every company has a table and some kinda thing., i didnt want to go but their company has forked out a lot so i will have to. im dreading wearing heels as ive gone flats since i found out i was prego.. are you ladies still wearing heels?


baby measured perfect 8 wk 2 day and a HB of 169!

so fx'd and praying !!
