TTC after Methotrexate shot

[baby_maybe]

Chig - I hope you've heard from your doc by now, but if not please try not to panic before you have the full picture. As renzal said the ecoli could just be a bladder infection that require antibiotics to clear. Sending you lots of I'm thinking of you xx

anything yet chig?

 

[chig]

So I never heard back from the Doctor, but the nurse did call me back after listening to my panicked message I left on her phone. She told me that they have sent the prescription for the urine infection to my pharmacy to pick up and the bloodwork that came back "abnormal" was the hemoglobin one, which means that my iron levels are kind of low and that I should eat more food with iron. I was sooooooooooooooooooooo relieved to hear that it was nothing serious....

I guess I will be picking up lots of broccoli and spinach on my way home today from work!

 

[grace10209]

really???????????????? thats it???? just low iron!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
eat your spinich girl! its got extra folate too so do it up!

 

[baby_maybe]

Omg chig, I can't believe she got you so worried, only to tell you it was iron!! Boy I would be mad at her for making you panic like that! Well at least it's nothing serious and you just need to get some lovely iron rich foods inside you

Chig I'm anemic, too. Be good about getting enough iron because it's sooooo exhausting not having enough. I've been on supplements for four weeks and just now starting to feel better

 

[chig]

I am a vegetarian, so getting some of the nutrients can be a challenge, so I might have to take supplements. I also watch and make sure that I get enough protein, since a lot of protein comes from animal products. I have eat a lot of beans and tofu...

Im so glad everything is ok with Chig.

Did you guys see my question about sore ovaries and "feeling" ovulation after you had your ectopic?

 

[baby_maybe]

Good job you said that chig, I was going to say you should eat a nice big steak! Thats what DH always feeds me with when I have low iron

Grace - sorry must have missed that, I didn't necessarily feel ovulation, but early on in this pregnancy I was very crampy and niggly around both of my ovaries, so much so I thought this was another ectopic for certain!

ughhhh ok, good to know for if that happens to me when i get my bfp, i will try not to panic

 

[chig]

grace - After I had the ectopic, I could feel a slight twinge pain when I was ovulating on the right side that they suspected the ectopic to be on. When I got my BFP, I didn't feel the twinge pains, so I was sure I ovulated from my left side. When I went for my first scan, the nurse even showed me that I ovulated from my left! I still get the slight twinge pain here there even 8 weeks into my pregnancy. I talked to my doctor about it and she said that it is just the scar tissues stretching and not to worry unless it is unbearable pain.

Glad everything is ok Chig

Grace I never used to feel ovulation pain but after my ectopic I was much more aware. My RHS is definitely more sensitive because of the ectopic but I think having had it and knowing my cycle I listen to my body, something I never did before!

[alleysm]

Laubull any new updates with you?

 

[Laubull]

Alleysm I'm now 4+6 and feeling blurghh, a good sign i hope! Not sure if I mentioned but I scared myself on Monday as I had a low temp, needless to say it was a blip, it shot up yesterday and I've now stopped temping! I also took an frer yesterday and the line was darker and thicker than the control line, hope it's a good sign!

Off to Scotland tomorrow for a long weekend to celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary so I'll be MIA for a while. Hoping everything will be ok when I'm back, if so I'll brave a ticker and actually book my appointments and scan!

How are you?

[chig]

Good luck Laubull!! Enjoy the long weekend!

 

[Laubull]
