Third Time Lucky - Fingers Crossed!!!

[SATH]

Thanks lou manny hoping your right. 2 weeks of sunshine and relaxation is definitely prescribed think i will prob ov few days after i get back.

Ive stopped everything at the min except pregncare and cq10 takings herb tabs from my accupuncturist and have granules to start in few days. Tried ba last 2 months may try it again or take from bfp?

Manny did you hav a great hol mauritus wow. Lou how are you coping with work do you still have to do nights & oncalls? They stop those for doctors!

SATH thanks for asking! I am really struggling with work....I have had an increase in my nausea the past couple of weeks having been quite good for a while (increasing hormones???) and am losing a bit of weight again, and my pelvis is really sore.And yes, I'm still doing nights and weekends on call on top of 4x 11 hr shifts a week. I didn't know Drs don't have to do nights etc! I couldn't get in to see the midwife anytime soon when I phoned last week so asked for a GP to call me in the hope that they might be able to given me some new meds or something, but the GP I spoke to was really concerned and thought I shouldn't be working and has booked me in to see my GP tomorrow. I don't know how I feel about potentially being signed off- on one hand I'm not really coping with work but on the other hand I'm worried that if I get signed off I will feel lonely and down as we live in the country and I can't really do much at all- I can barely manage to walk my dog even for a short distance, I can't eat much etc. Anyway sorry to go on, didn't mean to moan quite that much!

How are all the other pregnant ladies? Who is feeling well and who is not?? xx

Hey ladies hope ur well..x

Lou so sorry ur sick again... My sickness is away but my god my back kills I'm the same cant walk the dog for the pain and lying in bed is a nightmare, I am booked in next week to the maternity physio to see if they can help with anything but I've found sitting on a gym ball eases the pain. Xx

Oh lou you poor girl doesnt sound fun! Yep doctors are not allowed to do any of that once they inform that they inform that they are pregnant. I think you need to listen to your body and your bubba if they tell you to rest you have to. Sorry your down i dont think this grey weather helps spring will be here soon the flowers will be blooming and so will you. Take care

Twink, just wanted to let you know that my daughter is a third time lucky baby after hypothyroid meds. She was the first pregnancy that I had with normal tsh, t3 and t4 levels and she's perfectly healthy You're on the right track. and wishing everyone healthy pregnancies.

 

[twinkle_paws]

Essie, thanks very much for your post! Thats really reasurring. I believe this is my 1st pegnancy with normal TSH and T4 levels too. Can I ask if your meds had to be changed alot during your pregnancy? I m only 4 weeks and a bit but I am trying to arrange a blood test ASAP just to check all i still ok. I have elevated thyroid antibodies too, but nothing can be dont about that unfortunately.
God luck in TTC number 2!xx

Hey Twink, how you doing? Any sickness or anything yet?

How is everyone else doing? X

 

[cupcake1981]

I got this on my digi this am at 14 dpo! Very pleased!

 

[garfie]

Cupcake - that's great news

[twinkle_paws]

Hey Cupcake!
Great digi result! I have one digi left, going to try and hold out another week and hope i get a 3+.
Been feeling ok, a bit more tired, boobs starting to be a bit uncomfortable and keep gagging when I brush my teeth!! How are you? Keeping up the PMA I hope?!xxx

 

[cupcake1981]

Thanks Garfie! How you doing?

Yep am keeping the PMA and working on hubs to! I have felt a bit icky in the am, boobs maybe a bit tender and tired a lot of the time but all in all so far I'm doing ok.

Don't think I'm going to test anymore with digis, as I find them quite stressful when they don't tell you what you expect! And testing in general can be a bit stressful to. Am gonna carry on with ICs for a bit tho just to see the progression on them.

 

[garfie]

AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHH does that answer the question

FF has not said I have O yet - as I had a strange temp yesterday but if I disregard that temp it has me at 5DPO with O being 11DPO normal for me (I was up in the night last night)

So being the POAS addict I am yesterday I did an OPK - got a line barely there today a blazing POS if I am now O (how late is this for a girl with a 19 day cycle) and hubby is out night fishing so I have decided I must be broken

I am glad all your pregnant ladies are doing well and some for the few that are left

[cupcake1981]

Oh your not broken sometimes cycles can go wonky after mc x

 

[twinkle_paws]

Hi, hope eveyone is well.

Lou - sorry you have been so sore, I hope your are able to sort someting out at work to help things. Have you tried on of the maternity pelvic supports?

Cupcake - hope you are still feeling ok and bean is getting nice and comfy!

I'm just after a spot of advice.....I can't decide when to go for an early scan or wheather to bother with one at all. I have been told I just need to phone EPU and they will fit me in. Last time I was back and forth 3 times each with a fotnight inbetween so it was such a long dragged out process. My husband doesn't seem keen and keeps saying he doesn't want to go too early and not see anything. I think we are both terrfed of going and getting bad news or being left in limbo as we are yet to have a happy visit to EPU and we have been there ALOT! Obviously if I went and saw baby and a heartbeat I would be thrilled and would feel great as 2 previous baby's only grew a few mm's and there was no heartbeat. What do you all think???

[twinkle_paws]

Grafie, I think I would discard temp on the 7th as it looks like you did ov on the 5th and your temp was off due to being up through the night. Good luck in your TWW x

 

[cupcake1981]

Hi twink, I'm ok you? Had a very positive docs appointment yest where my GP actually suggested the low dose aspirin, put me on higher dose FA, AND did the blood test for the clotting disorders! He's so lovely and said he didn't want to see me lose another baby if it is something like that! So if it shows anything up ill get treatment for it ASAP.

I'm thinking no early scan this time tbh. We are very much trying to just go with the flow. Im certainly not paying for one as we've spent too much money on bad news this year and I don't think I'm going to be offered one as I won't see the mw prob til 10 weeks!!

Hope everyone is ok xx

 

[twinkle_paws]

Thanks Cupcake, think I will hold out as long as possible. Haven't been taking baby aspirin, do you think it's too late to start at 5 weeks? Your Doc sounds really good x

 

[cupcake1981]

I would check with your doc first if you have any other medical conditions (thyroid) but I'm sure it's not too late to start. I'm saying no scan ATM but I might change my mind, especially if I have the dreaded symptoms disappearing! X

 

[twinkle_paws]

I had planned to speak to Dr about it on Wed when I see him so might just do that. It's so hard knowing what to do, I just want everthing to be ok so so much!!x

 

[cupcake1981]

Its really hard to know, it was a decision I struggled with on Saturday when I got bfp as I wasn't sure what the GP would think , but luckily he was supportive. Maybe call for a telephone consult to ask how it would affect your thyroid x
