im not well at them moment battling with pain from my three medcial conditions and the stress of TTC...........im going to the doctor on monday for some happy pills to help with the stress of medical issues and TTC...im a bit of a mess... I have researched antidepressents and the one i have been on before couple years back is ok in pregnancy...........i figure that at the end of the day im better being stress and less pain free TTC than complety stressed which makes it harder TTC..

Nessie, sorry to hear you have had a rough time of late. I haven't been in this forum for awhile so I am not sure what you've been up to. I didn't know you had three medical conditions...are you ok? I am happy to hear you are going to see a FS. Have you had any tests yet...bloods? HSG? Hope you have been getting some answers. Have you tried out any TCM or acupuncture yet?
I am currently recovering after a lap/hys/D&C/dye. Due back at work in about a week. Just kicking back and taking it easy so I heal up nicely.

Take care... I think of you and wonder how you are going.

Hows things with you Quail...anything new?

Hope everyone else is going well.

hi lioness nothing to report from me im afraid i am very well at the moment how are you? im just waiting until i can test where are you in your cycle? hope you are well.xx

 

[lioness168]

Awww Nessie, didn't realise you had all that going on while ttc, how long have you been dealing with all this for? I can understand that it would be quite stressful. Its stressful enough ttc without everything else you're going through . Good to hear you are taking some time out to look after yourself and I love your positive attitude, and the test results so far sound promising also. Are you still going to see a FS?

As for me...still waiting for the to arrive after the op. Does anyone know how long it would take to get your cycle back to normal after a lap/hyst/D&C/dye? I have still been taking my bbts in the morning and not much is happening. If I didn't ovulate this month, can I still expect to get the ? Any advice would be helpful.

Good luck Quail on your tww. I will keep my fingers crossed for you both (and everyone else here) on getting their !!! As for me, well I'm out until my body recovers and my cycle returns.

 

[nessie01]

hi lioness
i cant remember if you said if you were on angus catus or not as that should help to regulate your cycles. yes we are still going to go to FS as why not better now than finding out one year down the track that i need help!! i think im fine personaly but just impatient!!!!!!! i want a like now!!!!! lol

im ok its not all bad..........my pfd is treatable with botox and my stomach is fixable with a minor operation its the muscular issues tmj etc that are the worst, but there are people who have had babies with worst things than me....anyway i have heard that preganacy is fantastic for muscualr issues andd pelvic stufff cause the hormones relax your body............im teaching till the end of term which is another 4 weeks then two weeks holliday then im handing my notice in!!!!! yahhhhhhhhhhhhh i have already spyed a couple of potential new jobs for about 18-25 hours per week which would be fantastic...........i need to work a little cause otherwise i would go insane lol!!!
but if i get pregie this cycle then i wont hand my notice cause i will hang out till im about 20 weeks then stop completly as then i can get marternaty leave!!!

quail ohhhh the wait its so exciting yet stresful heres hoping

now that my hubby is gong to be here next week, i told him on the phone tonite as he is away this week that be prepared for major baby making!!! day 12 is saturday for me so we are for it sat, sun mon tues wed thurs, fri!!!! to cover all my chances from day 12-19 bascally until i get a temperature rise!!!then we will stop.......... its going to be a mission havnt DTD this much since i was a young chick lol!!!! we are both to old now lol we like our sleep!!

anyway for june!!

 

[lioness168]

What's angus cactus? My cycle is usually regular and predictable, just recently had a lap/D&C which I bled for for 5 or so days afterwards and stopped when I was due to start my cycle. So I am just patiently waiting to see when it returns.

Good idea to see a FS, like you said, at least you'll know whats happening , best of luck with it. Only 4 weeks until the end of term...not long. Sounds like a big decisions to change jobs, I hope the decision works out well for you. I find it hard making life altering decisions when I am stressed.

Best of luck this month Nessie and Quail (and all the other ladies).... here's hoping you both get your . Don't wear yourself out Nessie

[nessie01]

oh lioness
angus catus/chase tree is the natural chinese type medicine that increases your fertilty, regulates your hormones and menstraul cycle and also helps with menstraul pain so may be great for your endo!!! my natropath put me on it and he says it is extremely effective lots of people on this board are on it..............you can get it from a natropath or just buy it online or at a healthfood shop.make sure its a good brand thou!!

i would derfinalty reccomend that you go on it!!!

[lioness168]

Thank Ness, I am currently taking TCM herbs, I might chat to him about it. I like to make sure he knows whats happening as he hows how things react together etc, he's pretty good. The endo I did have (which I didn't know I had) the Dr has cut out and will not return, so I should be fine there. I think my situation at the moment is just due to the op. My hormones and everything else are usually fine and run like clock work. Thanks for support and the info

All the best with everything, wishing you the best on your ttc journey, hope you get your sooner than later. As for me, I think I am just going to kick back for awhile and see what happens.

 

[quail]

hi everyone well im 6dpo so hoping im pregnant this month fxd for everyone.xx

 

[nessie01]

i really hoope that this is your month quail then you can send on that good fertile energy to us lol

 

[babythinkpink]

Hi All,

Rain today! Wanted to get washing done, and my tumble dryer smells of antiseptic when it gets hot, really don't know why, its not horrible just strange so i avoid using it!!

Nessie,
I was born with some stomach problems and pregnancy seems to help, I was told it would make it worse but I think the baby bump pushes everything out the way for a while!
Yes I am trying early but i ov early, my fertile time starts next wed, with ov due round about friday, so making sure plenty of about when egg pops out!
The new job sounds good, wish you all the luck with that x

Quail,
Still keeping everything crossed for you, well almost everything fingers and toes! x

Lioness,
My friend tried for 2 years to get preggers, and as soon as she said 'just going to kick back a while and see what happens' she got pregnant!! x

Well that's me for today, only day 6, bit longer and start baby making, it is fairly difficult due to hubby's bad back, so need to optimise when we can, I keep in mind sperm lives a while, so make sure its there for ov so wed is going to have to be a must!

Take care all, have great weekend,

thinkpink xx

 

[moonmama]

Hi all,

Quail when will you start testing? I'm 5dpo and hoping to wait untill i'm due AF but unfortunately I have absolutely no will power! The tests whisper to me from the drawer telling me to do bad things! I try to ignore them but its no use they always win!

Oh well better go back to work
