[Left wonderin]

Hi everyone you are all a bunch of really busy ladies !!! Jo what a cow to post that without even as much as a discussion with you !! And day 49 ! Eeeeek lets see what tommrow brings . Sending loads n loads of positive thoughts to you xxxxx

Becks looks like your soooo back in the TTC rollercoster !!!!! Exciting months ahead

AFM had hospital appointment today, bp normal , urine free from proteins, blood and sugar . My little boy head down bum up ( lol) OH tackling the changing unit ( flat pack ) and complicated lol.... 1st day of no work done

 

[Oasis717]

Lovely to be off work I bet!! I feel so excited for you when you say that head down, it makes me feel so broody lol xxx

 

[Oasis717]

Well I've found some info on interrupted sleep and temping, in the first half of your cycle it will make your temps higher and the second half lower! Restless or interrupted sleep affects the pituitary gland which in turn affects your reproductive hormones and influences your bbt, so my last couple of temps may not be the real representation xxx

 

[crysshae]

Cool! Exactly what I've experienced in the 2nd half. I never paid much attention in the first half. Guess I'm not as worried about it as I am in the TWW. Lol.

 

[Oasis717]

Lol snap!! Well at least we know now, it would explain why my pre o temps are much higher than my last pregnancy as I slept 7 hours straight uninterrupted when ttc Brooklyn! hoping I can get four hours sleep at least straight tonight. Brooklyn doesn't wake but I constantly wake to check him!

 

[josie1234]

Becks - I know. You are so right about not saying anything if nothing nice to say. I honestly don't mind people giving me constructive criticism or even just saying, sorry that class just wasn't for me but the way she done it really got to me. I do constantly look at ways to make sure my classes are not the same every time. But hey ho, life goes on. So the pg symptoms are there for you eh? Oh I do hope you get a BFP. If not now, very soon x

Fi - Your comments made me lol. Yes definitely will beast her til she drops mwah! She is civilian I think. I don't know when to go to docs. I am busy Mondays so not stopped today. Might ring up tomorrow. I want to know but I don't, if that makes sense. Don't want the disappointment. Sorry to hear about you and DH, it is so hard and I can understand how things get said in the heat of the moment. Hope things have calmed down and you are ok.

Crystal - thank you, I know. I would never be like that, if I didn't like a class, I just wouldn't go again or at least mention something like, oh the rest periods were a bit long or do you think my kettlebell was heavy enough as I didn't really have a good workout. Cramps come and go, not constant, just little moments. No AF still. CD 50 tomorrow. Temps still nice and high for you. I look at your chart each day, looking forward to some news very soon.

It is interesting about the temp thing, maybe that's why I can never fathom out my charts. Some days I don't sleep well and wake up early. This morning was 4 am, I can't sleep the first night my DH is home, he snores, rubs his foot with his other foot and also does a thing like grinding his teeth. Lol. Drives me crazy. I did go back to sleep straight away but sometimes if I wake, I can't get back to sleep so take my temp early. Ie one morning I was awake from 3-5 am and took my temp at 3, I stayed in bed trying to get back to sleep but couldn't. I dozed off at 5 then alarm went off at 6.30 so retook temp. Sorry for this long note, will continue on next one lol

 

[josie1234]

Lisa - I hope she isn't! Oh I will. I bet you are looking forward to the christening eh? Looking forward to pics. Also of the cake lol. (To get some tips/ideas). Not done a christening cake yet but with any luck I will be doing one for me soon

 

[Oasis717]

Jo honestly you've got every right to be annoyed id be absolutely fuming, there's a way to do things and that's just out and out rude and uncalled for. There's always one though isn't there. You didn't deserve that at all, I hate that she upset you, you're a lovely person and people like her make me mad!!! I wouldn't want her back in my class at all xxxxxxx
Yes that may well be why your chart is crazy sometimes, I just can't sleep longer than a couple of hours at a time which is why mine are a bit shot I think!!! Excited for you for tomorrow, hope we both get some sleep oh and dh rubs his feet together in bed, drives me crazy lol xxxxx

 

[Oasis717]

Well according to my temps I should expect af imminently! I still didn't manage 4 hours of sleep Such a strange cycle this month but they do say it can take a few cycles to get back to normal. I do feel like af is coming I must admit but had no brown spotting which I usually get a couple of days before but I do have cramping and sore boobsxxxx

 

[josie1234]

Morning all

Sorry Regina, I forgot to reply. Thank you. Temp drop this morning and crampy this morning so expecting AF. Booooo!!!!! Glad that things are ok, so exciting that head is down. Are you getting excited?

Becks - Thank you for your kind comments. Really nice. I hope your cycle settles. At least if AF comes then you can look forward to next cycle. I know I am not out but thinking I am.

 

[Oasis717]

Welcome Jo, hope you're feeling beta today. I saw the drop hunni, no your def not out yet, not til af comes!i feel like af is coming too but it's strange cause usually I spot before and def after bd when af is just about to start. Oh well I guess I shall have to wait til tomorrow's temp and see it goes down further. I only charted for one cycle before then got pregnant with Brooklyn so I've no charts to compare to xx.

 

[josie1234]

Yes see what today/tomorrow brings. I am ok thanks. Woke up once at 4. Think cos I am used to dh not being there I sleep better when he is away. Strange. Got him up this morning as he tends to lie in. Lazy!!!! Grr lol

 

[Oasis717]

I forgot what a lie in is lol xxx

 

[josie1234]

lol, I bet.

Rang doctors and spoke to receptionist and basically she said that they were waiting to see if I wanted a referral. I spoke to the duty doctor on 10 Jan 14 and said to her about my cycles etc and she said she would put me for referral. So that is twice that I thought I was getting a referral. Grrr. Waiting for them to ring me back. The doctor that rang me is off for 2 days so I asked if it is worth me coming in for blood tests today so receptionist is going to ask doctor. I am so annoyed! When I went to see doctor before was quite a few months ago. Just wasting time.

 

[Oasis717]

Oh how useless are they! So annoying. If it was them personally I bet they wouldn't want to be messed about like this. Hope you get somewhere with them xx.

 

[garfie]

Josie - don't they realise at our age waiting is not an option - hope you get sorted soon.

I missed so many chances that way - just waiting for Docs and then eventually when I get what I want - hubby says the chance has passed

But ssssshhhhh I haven't given up quite yet

[crysshae]

Becks - That is a big drop. I wouldn't think you have only an 8-day LP though... But like you said, it could take all the hormones a while to get back to normal. I've never charted that soon after giving birth.

Jo - I hope they get you in soon. It's annoying when doctor's offices don't seem to know what they are doing.

Good luck, Fiona.

 

[josie1234]

I know, that's one thing I haven't got......time! And if they had referred me at the beginning then I wouldn't have wasted this time.

DS came home today and said there was an incident at school with the teachers saying he needed to pay for a chair they say he has bent; however he said the it was bent before so he is not happy and refused to pay. So I have just sent an email to the head of year as no-one has contacted me. He was sent out of the class (he has had run ins with the teacher before) and then made to stay in at break time and was also told to go back at lunchtime (which he didn't as he hadn't eaten, he normally eats at first break). So I am awaiting a call ref that.

Blimey it is all happening!

 

[Soanxious]

Josie I know what its like with Dr's and having to wait here in UK. I had my 2nd MC last Friday and they told me that I can try straight away and if in a year ive not conceived they will look into it, or if I have another MC in the meantime. Im 41 and I feel time is running out too.. I was hoping there was something I could take to help keep my babies in my womb.. without having to suffer another MC.. I was lucky to get pregnant both times to begin with Hope you get some help soon...

ps I had asked in nov after my previous mc if I could have ovulation blood tests they call them blood test 21 and I had not ovulated in November, but I was supposed to go again dec but moved home and thats when I did ovulate and got pregnant with one I just mc.

 

[garfie]

So - BIG hun I think I missed your post

Josie - It must be something in the water I hope you don't have to pay! - my eldest came home yesterday after walking out of class - he said the teacher abused him when it came down to it (Wills has autism) the teacher was unaware of his condition - was the teachers first day - a bit old school - and called Wills a baby and he was to look at the teacher when he was speaking anyone who knows about autism knows that's not possible.

Anyway I told Wills he was probably trying to assert his authority over the class and I will be keeping a very close eye on the teacher I have to say something to try and avoid a meltdown

It sure brings out the mama bear instinct when we think our children are being treated unfairly

Becks - Your LP was ok before wasn't it maybe it will go back up again tomorrow

Cry - How are you hun
