[cathgibbs]

How are we all ladies?? Xxx

 

[cathgibbs]

^^^^^^ has to be the most random post EVER! ^^^^^

 

[Nina83]

Cath, why did you start a new cycle? Everything OK?

 

[cathgibbs]

Ohhh hun bless ya....I haven't ammended it hun....dont want to tempt fate just yet! How are you hun? See your temps have gone flat have you tested?? Xxx

 

[MrsBroodyPant]

I think her ticker just moved her on automatically xxx

 

[Nina83]

Oh good! I was worried!
Next pregnancy no way am I using a ticker. I think it was harder to take it down.
I hate seeing blueberries and poppyseeds

I didn't test today. My temps still have to stay high tomorrow for some hope. DH and I had a long hard talk today. I'm on the verge of giving up, everything seems like it's OK, I ovulate, I got pregnant after the D&C, so nothing seems to be blocked, DH's count is fine, we manage to time correctly, but nothing is working. I feel so drained. I know it will come when least expected, but it's hard to just "let go and forget". If I take a break it'll be really taking a break, as in, avoiding those days to avoid symptom spotting and whatever else goes with TTC.
I feel like this is taking over my life right now. And I want a cat. DH doesn't get that I really need to focus on something like that right now.

 

[cathgibbs]

Yeah nina mrsb is right it automatically moves on but iv taken it down ....for now!

Nina I honestly think a few months off will do you the world of good hun honestly. The twice iv caught this month I haven't focused on ttc. You and dh get your cat and go out and enjoy yourself and just dtd whenever you feel like it hun...massive I totally know what your going through xxxxxx

 

[MrsBroodyPant]

Nina hopefully your temp will stay up tomorrow!
I break might be just what u need and a new focus so getting a cat would be a welcomed distraction.
You have got pregnant 3x and u can do it again hun and get your rainbow baby.

Xxx

 

[Nina83]

LOL about the cat! We went to throw the trash and there was a pretty ginger cat. I psst psst him and he followed. DH said that if he follows us into the building we could keep him.
The cat followed us but then sat right outside the door and meowed.
One day DH will come home and just find a kitty. He'll have to deal with it!

 

[MrsBroodyPant]

My friend bought a cat without telling her bf. She took it home one night with a takeaway to soften the blow. Her bf went mad but he loves the cat more thsn her now lol xxx

 

[cathgibbs]

Haha Nina that made me lol! This is what I did with my cat...Dora. nagged ans nagged df and he said no..sooooo....he came home from work one day to find a beautiful 7 week old kitten exploring the house haha shes our baby ....well shes nearly 3 now haha xxx

 

[HappilyTTC]

Nina- I think you should bring a kitty home. It will help you shift your focus. I know having Chase and Nico has made my situation a lot easier for me. Those high temps would give me hope, too.

Cath- FXed. When will you know for sure?

How is everyone?

 

[Nina83]

Yeah, I should just bring one home! DH wants one, but is afraid it will eat up our couch! He got really attatched to my moms cat, I knew he loved it when he sat on him and turned on the engine
Animals can be so theraputic.

 

[Nina83]

BTW, how can you make sure a cat WON'T scratch the furniture?

 

[HappilyTTC]

Mine are from the shelter and were already declawed. You can buy these little plastic tips to put on each nail and they make it so the cat doesn't harm the furniture. Also, give kitty his own scratching stuff- post, toys, etc... That helps.

 

[cathgibbs]

Morning all!

Happily when will I find out what hun?

How you feeling?? So glad your dogs are making you feel a lil better hun xxx

Nina I agree with what happily said hun get a scratch post. .Dora has a 6ft scratching/climbing frame and loves it! She still has her claws (scars on my arms prove it haha) I think de-clawing cats isn't allowed here in the UK but I may be wrong! Xxx

 

[Nina83]

Happily, I've never heard of fake nails for cats LOL! I know declawing is allowed here, but it's not done in shelters, only private by owners. I'm not sure I'd do that though, it the cat ever got out of the house it might be doomed. And here, well, windows are always left open.
I talked to DH about it last night and he really didn't understand why I wanted an animal. The previous house owners had one and he saw their furniture and decided it's a no no.
I might just take him to pick one out because he'll fall in love with one there.

I got a slight dip, BFN, and my back hurts. I slept horrible last night. We decided (for the time being) not to go to my doctors this evening and "take it easy" this month. I asked DH to think about it during the day and let me know later on. There's nothing new the doctor can tell us anyways.

Hi ladies.... Nina just get one I said to my husband I was getting a pup and when he held her he fell in love!

Well i have no idea what cycle day I am as had such and odd period. I had 3 days of dark brown (suppose u would call it spotting but it was heavier) before my period started how it usually does with cramps etc. so I have decided to call the day I had red blood and cramps day 1. Do u think that's right?

 

[Nina83]

Lady, the day you start to actually bleed is supposed to be CD1, so sounds like you're counting from the right day!
