just got the good news...I'm going for heart valve surgery in 2 weeks

Ff just let me know that based on todays temp, I may be going triphasic. I was surprised at my temp today. Since charting thats my highest temp ever, not counting the day I was 99.1 but had a cold a couple months back.

Yes you are definitely having a bizzaro cycle!! It'll all be worth it when you get your BFP

Thanks for your support hun! I really don't see it happening this month though...but I'm already keeping fx for next cycle! We are trying to plan a cruise for the end of March, so if I stay on track cycle wise, it will most likely fall in my fertile window! Unless of course I get pg before then. I can't wait! We had a family reunion cruise in 2011, and had a lot of fun, but we also didn't get much free time since we all had to meet for dinner each night, etc, plus with the boys, we couldn't hit up the casino or bars at night. We've been dying to go on one just us.

OOOOH Where ya goin?! Michael and I have done 2 cruises to Alaska on Princess and it was AWESOME!!!

I wish I could afford alaska! Coming from fl it's too expensive.

Probably western caribbean /grand cayman islands . Maybe the bahamas.

Oh wow! so sorry! I have to get surgery on my knee, but thats nothing compared to yours!

It definitely helps that we're near the ports that go to Alaska. Princess goes out of Seattle and Vancouver. It would be the same for us if we wanted to do the Caribbean or the Atlantic runs. Cost of the flight would be more than the cruise!

Still at home sick no fever at least. Hopefully we will all be better by monday.

Pdubs I will pray for you on d day!

Ft Mommy cu soon in full nutty mode!

Pdubs, positive thoughts sent your way for your surgery!

Confetti, feel better soon!

Spent last night in the ER for this stupid pleurisy. It was unbearably painful! Thankfully they gave me some amazing wonder-drug shot in my butt that made the pain go away and made the inflammation in my chest go down. I asked if I could take some of it home and they said no... sent me home with some Vicodin and a regimen of 600mg of ibuprofen 3 times a day instead...

So question to Angel wings, I know you're good with all the drugs and TTC... I know that ibuprofen can screw with ovulation. But if I stop taking it a week or so before O, will everything go on as normal? I almost don't want to take it at all, but then again I won't be doing ANY BDing if this pain doesn't stay away. Thoughts?

 

[PDubs10612]

Thanks all for the well wishes and prayers...I'm super psyched for this to be done..been waiting for a long time for it to be fixed and it will make pregnancy so much easier and safer I haven't had the valve changed since I was 5! I think I'm overdue

The ibuprofen can suppress progesterone, so in case there's an egg implanting, you just don't want to take it after O...
I don't remember if taking it before o delays o or not.
You are post O now right? Maybe take the vicodin for pain and a baby aspirin for inflammation? Otherwise just take the ibuprofen if your really inflamed, it's not a for sure way of stopping implantation, it is possible, but I'm sure many women have taken ibuprofen in 2ww not knowing they are pg and turned out fine.... I wools think in your condition the benefit outweighs the risk. May as well get it taken care of, do it doesn't come back wirse next month, you know?
Sorry for typos, I'm on my phone and don't feel like fixing them lol

Was the wonder drug dilaudid? Lol, I had that after my thyroidectomy and it was awesome! Those 3 days in the hospital were the only 3 days in the last 10 years I had ZERO back/neck or hip pain! No med ever takes all the pain away, but that iv dilaudid sure did! I see how people can get addicted! Not to mention hospital beds aren't the most comfy and it STILL took care of my pain!

 

[Wugz22]

Haha I can't remember the name of the wonder drug but it definitely had the affect that you're talking about! I was in love with it!

I am pre-O now so I feel Ok about the ibuprofen. I'm only CD 4, and will stop taking it around CD 7 at the latest. O shouldn't come until CD 15, so hopefully it'll all be out of my system by them. Feeling so much better today!

 

[AnakeRose]

Hi ladies! How is everyone doing today?

 

[confetti83]

I had a great day indoors with Wayne, DH was working today and I wont see him until tomm but at least he will make it for the ultrasound appt. Sooooo excited.

 

[Angel wings13]

Wugz, so glad you are feeling better, and I'm sure you are fine taking the ibuprofen early in your cycle. I do for cramps.

 

[AnakeRose]

Ugh, I'm not sure if my MS medication is working anymore. I've been feeling like hell the last 2 days

 

[confetti83]

I am so sry Anake. Some ladies in other thread mention some ginger drops that help. I am so stupid I wished I had some preg symptoms just cause I was afraid my preg is not normal without. I have an embarassing symptom since getting preg lots and lots of gas!

 

[confetti83]

Wugz hope you get better soon.

Angel any news? your chart looks so promising.

the chart is looking good, but I'm not feeling it. Af due in the next day or so. Sigh.

 

[Angel wings13]

Got a positive opk today, lmao! One big smiley. According to my history, I'm either gonna o again, or af is REAL close. I get a pos opk about a day before af. Otherwise I get a couple and a new temp spike lol. I can't sleep and am getting delirious

 

[FTMommy01]

Well Im back in! It was nice to take the month off but Im so ready to start trying full time again. CD1 for me today and this will be our 6th cycle TTC. I just ordered 20 digi OPKs my ovulatuion days and cycle lengths have been so crazy hopefully these will work and I can pinpoint something lol.

Consider yourself lucky there girl!! I know you want to have symptoms, but really you don't!

I'm experimenting with a theory. I cut out coffee cold turkey and I'm thinking that might be the cause of my headaches. I'm trying to have a single cup at least every other day to see if that helps. I was having 3-4 cups a day before I found out I was pregnant.

Still on the job search. I've blanketed every Tim Horton's (coffee shop) and Subway in the area. I might put one in at Walmart or Michael's (crafts). I just need to work SOMEWHERE.

Planning to head to Vancouver in April after we find out the baby's sex. I can't wait to go to IKEA and get stuff for the room

 

[confetti83]

Good luck for ur job hunt Anake.

Welcome back Ft Mommy!
