Thats so true Ejay!!! it's like scary they are every were!!!! I went swimming last night with DH and there was a lovely woman in the pool escaping the heat and taking the weight off!!!! LOL
great picture of you and the horse hey did you ask her to rub off you spread it on as it were!!!! ps not the horse the pregnant woman
sorry feeling funny this morning hehehehe

Moon great doc, glad its only thrush! easy to get rid of!

Honey that's so funny PML my DH is the talker in our house!

SquirrelGirl tell him, hey ass hole stopping rubbing it in my face about having no kids.

Titi ahhhh lovely story about your DH on that girl who pregnant and been drinking I hate that with a passion. she does not know how lucky she is !!!!! I would even say that to her... and walk away! she will regret no pictures of being pregnant!!! yep I may of felt huge but I still loved my bump!

on the flip side just wanted to say!!!
but one thing I would point out when we do get pregnant and you get to 36 weeks or even before you will complain about being heavy, feeling huge, bloated and you will crave for the end. its nature way of preparing us for labour so much so we turn in to sadist who start to dance and go whoo hoo when you start to get pains and labour has started esp if you are late. just so you know it can be normal to moan at that stage and don't feel guilty if you do does not mean we are bad people or dont love being pregnant or baby on the way!!

 

[Moondance]

Well she DID swab me, just in case there is more to it than simple thrush. But not got those results yet obviously!

 

[Tanikit]

Moon glad you know the cause now and at least thrush is relatively easy to treat.

Lol at the pic Ejay - nice horse!

Titi it is so hard for people ttc to hear stories like that about people who are clearly not grateful to be pregnant - but be warned also that all pregnant women do moan about certain things and we shouldn't feel guilty - it doesn't make any of us less grateful to be pregnant.

I thought I'd got over the hijacking recently but yesterday Fudgie was playing with something when we were eating supper and it sounded like someone walking in the house - I jumped and grabbed my daughter by the arm and really got quite scared and today when the door slammed shut in the wind I also really jumped. It is better in general, but my heart still races a lot.

Thanks pg girls, for the insight. LTTTC has made me judgemental which really bothers me and I am trying to work on......a good reason to be in this thread. I can definitely imagine that being heavier and not sleeping well, etc. can take its toll and I am happy to hear that nature has a way I guess of taking the fear of birth away if you are so ready for it to come.
I am thinking tho, that she hasn't really been very "normal".....as she virtually went into hiding since day 1-refused to let any pictures of her be taken or posted (not even yesterday when baby and baby and dad pics popped up on fb), and has exclaimed over and over that she will never do this again. This is a 37 year old woman. IDK.

Ejay-love the pic of you-its so funny that I'm not the only one surrounded by bumps. Since this is TTHF! I'll share DH's lighthearted game. It's not exactly the nicest game but I think he developed it after I burst into tears in Target around cycle 12 (when I had thought I was pg, just gotten AF) when there was a lady with a lovely bump shopping next to us...... Anyway, its called "fat or pregnant?". He asks and I have to guess the answer. It's cute, b/c every now and then we will see some guy with a gigantic beer belly and dh will whisper that in my ear.

Ah Moondance sorry about your vajayjay issues! I got the itchy kootch a little two cycles ago when I desparately gave "baking soda finger" ttc method a try, a little overzealously. Thankfully it went away right before I was going to go to the Dr. I hope it's just thrush for you-that I think is easily enough to cure-lucky for you you are past BD time!

Well had a fun TTHF! BD last night. I even skipped the softcup!

i didnt bother to do a test, i woke up early hours feeling ill and got a sore throat think i have yet another toncelitus grrrr so going to bug doc to take them out as i feel so ill, i felt sick sense yesterday and tired and i just feel so down.

i dunno if its because of my friend leaving or what but i feel very emotional and want to cry all the time

 

[Annamumof2]

well i tested and it was neg, i dunno what to think now, i might take one tomorrow

They wont take themout until after the infection is gone. Do you get strep throat alot?....

 

[honeybee28]

moon, your doc sounds hilarious!! I get thrush a lot, hope it clears up soon for you!!
titi - ive contemplated baking soda finger as i hear it's what worked for maxam!!

so i got my bloodwork back today. my progesterone is totally normal! I was convinced it would be low as it was low on cd2 and i spot before af. but it's 78 and i think she said normal range is from 30 - 80 so it's at the high end of normal, that's cool. i asked about the spotting, she said if i always have it and as my progesterone is ok it's nothing to worry about. i've still got it but less than in previous months so the maca is working.
Squirrel you should try it too!!
they'll do hubs SA towards the end of the month, then look at checking out my tubes etc

Titi, glad you're starting THF! thats good.

hey everyone else! How's it going? How ya doing tryfor?

What's for dinner? Left overs for me!! and a bit of ice cream i think. i eat a bit of ice cream everyday, is that bad!?

And I agree, I appreciate Tanikit and Niamh's caution about how pg women have the right to a "whinge" after all those months of discomfort. But it really melted my heart when my very close friend apologized for whining about her heartburn, considering the fact that I had been trying for twice as long as it took her to get pg (and am still trying...). I just found that exquisitely considerate, that she took my point of view into account like that. Because we are TTCers we can complain to each other about how those sorts of things can be upsetting. Although we'd all like to "rise above" that sort of response, and not be judgmental, there are some circumstances that make it difficult to be perfect and understanding. Hopefully we will learn how to be more considerate of our pg sisters when we experience the bloating and heartburn ourselves.

Love how Sarah would give a million to LuckyD in our TTC alternate reality so we could all hang out on her land together. I’ve been imagining our virtual camping expedition, but now I picture a sick lodge with stone walls and huge timbers…and hobbits…

Good golly I just don’t understand how you women are picturing sexy time in that filthy telescope! You must have very vivid imaginations. I'm telling you, rotting mouse carcass does not melt my loins.

ParkGirl – you are handling this so well. I know you are gonna hit the jackpot again real soon, just like Nixilix. And next time it will be sticky – like super glue!

Have you gals ever heard this: "When you get the stretchy stuff you have to do the sexy stuff" I saw it in a gal's siggy and thought it was awesome.

Ejay – nice job on the dressage comp! I watched a PBS special on dressage the other night. My Mom did some classes but never competed, only competed in the carriage events. And yes, there are pg women every where, along with babies. On Friday night I went to a show where there were loads of 'em and I started to wish I they were like vampires and I was armed with garlic and crucifixes Because seeing so many babies and bumps is draining the life blood out of me!!! Oh there is that sad, bitter inner demon again...

Moon - glad you've got something that can be easily treated. Hope that cream works quickly and that you feel better soon!

Honey - glad your progesterone levels are normal! Hope the doc reassured you about the spotting. Yes, eating ice cream every day is perfectly fine, especially with your svelt figure!!

 

[honeybee28]

haha jaimie! Love that about the stretchy stuff and the sexy stuff!! Not heard that before.

ahhh im glad it's ok to eat it everyday *wanders off to get the cookies and cream* nom nom.

i hate studying. bnb is a lot more interesting. as is googling 'normal progesterone levels' to see if there's any chance that mine means im preggo, even though my doc specifically said to me it needs to be higher than normal to be preggo. and mine is normal. but high normal right. hmmm.

 

[Tanikit]

Honeybee glad your progesterone is good (even high) - thats a good sign!

Jaimie lol about the telescope - we haven't been inside so can imagine it looking - well sexy!

Hobbits... that sounds fun - on LuckyDs land... gets my imagination fired up - imagine what I am going to dream tonight lol.

Jaimie I get what you mean about the pregnancy thing - I think what everyone wants most is for someone to see things from their point of view - which is why when ttc we wish pregnant women would stop moaning and when pregnant we wish others would feel how we struggle. I think its really hard for both groups to be honest - thats why I am hoping you will all move over and come and complain on the next board. Fx and prayers for all of you.

Honeybee hoping that high normal means normal for pregnancy for you

 

[CelticNiamh]

Titi its hard hun, we TCC in secret and feel so bad when AF arrives, so in a way its natural to feel bad and go GRRRR when some one is moaning I just wanted to let you ALL know that we will all be the same when its BFP all round LOL but I think your friend is prob a bit weird! hopefully she takes to mother hood a lot better I like what your DH does cute! well done trying to TthF you can do it! plus if you lose your way and feel bad we are here as well

Jaimie you know we could all do with being aware of other people feeling's before moaning, I do think its worse when TCC and hearing some one moan about something or make some smart comment about when are you going to have a baby etc is far more heart wrenching so my eyes are well and thruly open to that, esp as we do not know what is really going on behind closed doors oooh dead mouse carcass yuck deffo a passion killer LOL

Moon hopefully the swaps come back ok and nothing nasty!

Anna sorry to hear your feeling so bad again they do normally remove them if you get them twice in a 6 month period I really feel for you and you having messed up cycles, I know you know its the DEPO but annoy your doc to do a hormone check may be there is something that can speed up them returning to normal and not effect your warfin.

Tanikit time is a great healer but may be having an escape plan in place may help you feel more secure or a big kick ass dog to scare any one or warn you. how are you feeling pregnancy wise any symptoms yet!

Honey yay for the blood test that is brilliant new, here I'm hoping that the high progesterone means a bub on board (bun in the oven)

LuckyD how are you doing hun!

Hello to every one else

 

[tryforbaby2]

I am doing wellhoneybee thanks for asking! I am super happy about your awesome results!!! I have everything crossed (.x.) even my V rofl that you are pregnant!!!

I totally agree with tanikit in hoping you all move over to the next board to complain with us!

I love the stretchy and sexy comment. How come we didn't hear that ages ago! Ahahaha

 

[Annamumof2]

i didnt bother to do a test, i woke up early hours feeling ill and got a sore throat think i have yet another toncelitus grrrr so going to bug doc to take them out as i feel so ill, i felt sick sense yesterday and tired and i just feel so down.

They wont take themout until after the infection is gone. Do you get strep throat alot?....

i dunno what that is but i know i have toncelitus again, and they will take them out when the infections gone as i will make them lol

i feel so tired and sick, and ive started to bleed alittle more so i think im going to class today as CD 1 but i dunno yet

 

[honeybee28]

ahhhh tryfor i want us all to have BFPS right now then we can pick up the TTHF thread and march off to first try with it. though it wouldnt be long til you sneak off to second try huh!!! btw that pic of you and your dh is so cute he looks really hot and your dd is just so adorable!

ive googled the crap out of progesterone levels and have concluded that my levels mean nothing in terms of being UTD (love that saying too), loads of girls have had this level and even higher and not been pregnant. but at least it means im ovulating ok and if there is a bean on board it should stick. i have one hpt left! Will probably do it tomorrow or the day after and then not buy anymore ever til i have a late period!! im really not feeling optimistic though i have no symptoms at all and i had that spotting the other day, have sore boobs but always get them pre af.

i really hope that the weather is nice at the weekend, i really want to go for a picnic up on the hills and sunbathe and stuff.

 

[Jaimie2Eyes]

Tanikit - when Niamh wrote that maybe you need a big kick ass dog I tried to imagine Fudgie scaring potential intruders away ~ that kind of cracked me up but seriously, I've been thinking about you tons with all the world cup footage and hoping that your neighborhood becomes peaceful again soon.

Tanikit, Niamh, and TryFor I truly hope we'll all be having a good whinge about pg symptoms soon.

I was just out for lunch and was thinking about how funny the LTTTC bitterness is. And how all I want to do is whine about pg symptoms rather than not being pg. Actually I was having a pee and wouldn't you know as soon as I walked out the door, who was waiting there for the rest room? A BIG OL BUMP of a gorgeous pg woman I wish I could earn money for my awesome talent of attracting babies and bumps...

 

[honeybee28]

ahhh the babies and the bumps! the pregnant girl who sits next to me at work talks to her bump all day long and it makes me soooo jealous. ahhh. and i had a cuddle with a bub that was less than a week old on monday. i thought about running off with him but my heels were too high for me to get anywhere fast.

 

[Ejay]

Honey - have visions of you teetering around on high heels with a baby tucked under your arm
