TTC and Beyond!

[wavescrash]

Ooh speaking of, I bought a bottle of Moscato a few days before Leah was born and it's still sitting in my fridge unopened. If I'm not nursing, I can so totally have a glass. Although I'm still on Percocet so probably should hold off until I'm done with my meds lol.

Sandy, that is great! I can't wait to see scan pictures!

Amanda, I'm glad that you're not feeling as guilty. I personally strongly promote babies being fed. How they are being fed doesn't matter to me. Youre the momma, you make the decisions and call the shots. you have to do whats best for you and Leah. Trust that you make the right decision and it will all work out Thank you, I'm slowly getting excited. Can you send me your address? I'll be sending a (belated) gift to you and leah soon on behalf of all of us ladies.

Katrina, I know nothing about charting/temping but I realy hope you O'd! I'm keepin you in my thoughts.

Sandy yay for your appt.
Afm bought my new thermometer and got my femara. I don't think pharmacy check out ladies should be allowed to ask questions especially if they know you. Oh your buying a bbt and letrozone are you trying to make a baby? It took us five years to have number two. I felt like saying I take breast cancer drugs for fun. It was embarrassing.

 

[RobertRedford]

Katrina, people are downright stupid and insenstive somtimes. I had a guy at the checkout at safeway ask about a box of FRER's. He went "Oh, are you pregnant?!" Well, I wouldn't be buying HPT's if I knew!

 

[Cowgirl07]

I was just flabbergasted. I think pharmacy workers shouldn't ask personal questions.

 

[RobertRedford]

I agree. I had a pharmacy tech last year comment on the medications I was picking up for the D&C of my MC. Luckily it was nice, something along the lines of "take care of yourself with all of this" but still, they should respect patient privacy!

Rob just put together the rock and play that we bought for Evan instead of a bassinet. I could just cry with how happy my heart is that he will be here soon.

BB and Katrina, I know you will get here one day and it will be the best feeling in the world!!!

 

[clynn11]

Ugh people need to mind their own damn business!! Sorry katrina

Mirolee likes to keep us on our toes apparently

 

[goldstns]

Mirolee- we won't tell your family if u tell us first!!

 

[RobertRedford]

my doctor just called to go over labs, etc. She said that my betas came back (242) and that they did in fact double so that is good. She asked that I continue to have blood work done every 48 hours to make sure its doubling properly, as well as get follow up ultrasounds every 3 days. (yuck)

I asked if they were doing the additional blood work and US's because there was a suspicion of a problem, or if it was routine. She goes "well, we haven't seen a uterine pregnancy yet, so we have to assume its outside of the uterus". I asked if it was common to see a uterine pregnancy at 4 weeks, given that its just so early, and she goes "dont you remember, we already went over this".

I feel ike im being treated as if something is wrong!

 

[Cowgirl07]

Your not doing anything wrong how rude of her. I think it's just early and wouldn't show most etopics either hsg grows super fast or super slow. Yours seems within normal numbers. But just think of all the little chances you get to see until you see a baby in there.

 

[RobertRedford]

True. I just wish it was a bit further along so we had a better chance of seeing something

I may switch doctors, if I can. Shes really rude.

 

[clynn11]

Your doctor is really pissing me off Amanda It's too early to see anything!! She's crazy!!!!

 

[Ingodshand]

Amanda- your doctor sounds like an idiot! My fertility re would not do an ultrasound until your hcg was at least 1000. I feel like they are just putting you through extra stress for no reason and being rude at the same time! If you can then I would switch!

 

[frsttimemama]

Ugh Katrina I am sorry! Nosey old ladies! Can't wait for your BFP! ! I did not realize that femara was for breast cancer!

Amanda, i totally would. What a rude arrogant insensitive witch! As if you don't have enough anxiety of your own without her help! Doctors are supposed to reassure you, not belittle you.

Sarah, SO exciting! ! How are you feeling?

 

[Disneybaby26]

Amanda- that's horribly rude!! It WAY too early- the way she's acting makes me question her knowledge, and her professionalism for that matter.

Katrina- what an asshat that pharmacy tech was! How invasive! I'm sorry Hun! Yay for a new bbt and femara though! That little babe is close!

Waves-sorry the bfing isn't working out! Don't be guilty-you tried! I'm planning on the same attack mode. I'd love to bf, I know it's good for her, but if it makes me nuts or doesn't work out-I'm totally okay with a bottle! I wasn't breastfed and I think I'm a pretty smart cookie!

AFM- the amount of pain I have in my hips and under my bump cannot be normal! I have a hugeeee pain tolerance and had involuntary tears running down my face today. Standing up hurts, walking kills, sitting back down hurts...WTF? Then, of course, Makayla had her most active day, like ever. Big, strong movements, with like zero breaks. So then of course I started freaking out that she was struggling or something. Bed and heating pad for me, mentally and physically exhausted.

 

[Disneybaby26]

Sandy-I can't wait to see pics on the little one!! Very exciting!

 

[frsttimemama]

Feel better Kara!
