Im in a cycle where I am not supposed to be ttc... but im too scared not too.. and im to scared to dtd in case I do get pregnant this time..

Do I really want a condom? do I not get pregnant and waste an egg... and get told I have no clotting issues.. or do I ttc and get pregnant and lose it or do I get pregnant and stay pregnant with a bring home baby....
WHAT DO I DO?????????????????????????????

 

[Sparkle125]

Tanya: I am so sorry you are going through this difficult time. Because I have clotting disorders, I feel that you should wait. But, I am biased. And, I understand that if it turns out that you don't have any issues (I so hope so!), you would feel like you have wasted time. When I have faced "forced" breaks in my TTC, it has been difficult. In the end, I found that I actually did need the mental and physical break more than I even thought. What got me through is that I still worked on things that I felt like would help my TTC process, so in my mind I was still TTC even though I was on a break. For example, I really concentrated during my acupuncture sessions, I found a meditation series about relaxation, I read books, I concentrated on my nutrition, I tried to exercise....all things that would actually be helping me in the end. Basically, I relaxed, focused on getting re-centered, and focused on caring for my body and mind which would put me in a better spot for the next cycle. In the end, it was freeing to not be so obsessed for a moment. I am thinking of you and sending good thoughts!!!

Great advice Jenn!

AF showed today BUT my LP was back to 14 days this cycle. Woohoo!!!

 

[Soanxious]

Thank you sparkle.. I know what you mean.. and today has been my worst.. been having really bad panic attacks.. so I do need to try and relax a little..

Crystal sorry af got you but glad you got a good cycle length x Have you been taking Vitex?

 

[Sparkle125]

Started my meds on Tuesday to build my lining...uterine lining on Monday was a 3, which was fine since that was CD2 of my cycle. I need to get to at least a 7 before they will do a transfer. I go back tomorrow for another check. Crossing my fingers it is increasing as this has alway been a challenge for me. We'll see! Feeling good! My donor eggs were shipped yesterday and I am so excited as they probably arrived today! Yay! So ready to get this show on the road!

 

[Oasis717]

Great lp Crystal! xx

 

[Soanxious]

Oh Sparkle I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited for this transfer and this little baby we will see (hopefully you will post tests and scans) but seriously I am so hoping this runs smoothly... I have such a goodbump feeling about this little one about to be made xx

Aww Becks sorry AF got you... but that was you NOT ttc cycle.. are you now onto your ttc or taking another month kind of not ttc?

I had bloods taken yesterday and again in 6 weeks.. that means 2 cycles of not trying.. I wont manage 2 cycles... so hoping they give me the results asap... as I will be ttc next cycle.

My middle daughter is moving all her belongings here today.. she is moving to Zante on monday.. it's added to my panic attacks etc.. and im so upset...and worried.. x

 

[crysshae]

Great lp Crystal! xx

Yours too, and somehow we're back on the same schedule. Good luck!

Jenn - Exciting. Hope everything works out perfectly.

 

[Sparkle125]

Hey Ladies! I had my first lining check today and it went well! Lining has previously been an issue for me. My doctor's magic number is 7mm. Today my lining was a 5.3mm which is awesome for me at this point! I go back Monday for another check and if it is at 7mm or above, we will schedule the transfer for either next Thursday or Saturday! SO EXCITED!!!!!!

 

[Soanxious]

Oh that is EXCELLENT NEWS!!!!!! Im so excited for you I could POP!!

 

[Oasis717]

Tanya sorry youre feeling stressed hope you feel better soon Its ok im doing well on my diet and we really didnt try this cycle with us we need ti bd bout 4 times a day! Not managed that just so so busy. xxx
Crystal we are cycle buddies again lol xxx good luck to you too xxxx
Sparkle im also super excited for you!! xxx

 

[josie1234]

Tanya - sorry that you are going through a stressful time. I really hope that you get some good news soon. Fingers crossed for your blood results. Keep us updated x

Becks - glad that your diet is going well. Do you still do lots of walking? I bet Brooklyn keeps you very active lol.

Sparkle - I am so excited for you hun. It is so interesting to hear about your ttc journey. I have got a really good feeling for you, so fingers crossed I am right, that you get your BFP!

Lisa - how is Caitlin and things with you?

Regina - how are you doing?

Tilly - hope you are ok?

Driving - how's things?

Sorry if I have missed anyone, if I have, hope you are ok too.

AFM - Very busy week this week as had couple of extra shifts/classes but I need to as I am losing my shift in the gym as Fitness Consultant soon as they have recruited a full-timer. I will really miss it but on the plus side, the one job I have applied for so far (haven't really had time to apply as been so busy - applying for jobs is a full-time job!), I have got to the interview stage. It is as Administrator in NHS, it is full-time so it will be nice if I do get it to have some extra money. DH has gone back for his shifts so won't see him til Tues morning. Didn't see him much this time he was home due to me working lots. Received a letter to say that he has a speeding fine £100 and 3 points!

 

[josie1234]

Sorry Crystal - thought I had mentioned you. Good that you have a decent LP so fingers crossed for you. Are you still taking vitamins?

Is Fi still around? If so, hope you are ok xx

 

[Oasis717]

Yes Jo still walking when its not raining that is! Masses of luck with the Admin job, hope you get it. Pouring here yet again today Brooklyn keeps me super busy and pulls himself to standing on anything he can so ive literally got to follow him everywhere Still cant believe he's standing alone at 7 months, we've put a gate at the front room door (never had a door there as blocks too much room) and he pulls himself up and stands there shaking the bars like a monkey in a cage! So funny xxx

 

[josie1234]

Hi Becks that's good. Yes lots of rain here too. Looks a bit nicer thus morning. Was really bad on Thursday with thunder, lightning and pouring down so I was panicking about my bootcamp but it stopped just before. Thank you. Fingers crossed. It is nerve racking going for interviews as never had to do them in RAF. Bless Brooklyn it did make me laugh, sounds so cute , and clever too.

CS 72 for me so looks like it could be another cycle over 100. Hope you all have a lovely bank holiday x
