Booking holidays for 2018

[MoominGirl]

Sorry you're feeling down Alexis - try and get an ultrasound next. That was the next test I had after the bloods which were also all normal for me. It was the ultrasound that found my polyp. I had a second scan to confirm it was still there at a different point in my cycle before I got referred to gynae. It caused me no symptoms at all so I would never have known it was there. Try and think about things one step at a time. It helped me feel less overwhelmed by the whole thing by dealing with each procedure etc individually.

I think the only reason I conceived was because I went on Holiday. Was the first time I had really really let my hair down and relaxed. Good luck x

Hey hope your keeping well...I see your having a boy! Congrats. Yeah we wont be going on holiday for 7 months. I have kinda accepted we arent having children. 8 months of trying..DH sperm is all normal and my hornones all normal....we are both just fed up now and want answers to why it's not happening. Longest 8 months I have ever been through...and the thought of tbe even longer road ahead makes me so sad. I am in 2ww and due af 31st so waitong till she arrives so I can phone and ask for more tests, maybe a scan of my ovaries amd check my tubes.

Hey don't give up, it will happen one day! Definitely book the holiday, I'd book a spontaneous mini break too if you can, get away from it all for a short time
How's your new home? Hope you've settled in nicely and making it your own x

Glad the new home is wonderful. You will fill them, keep the faith. I think you should book the holiday, no doubt. Nice distraction and something good to look forward to x

Definitely best to not put your life on hold "just incase". We didn't book a hol we had planned for early summer as we thought I could be 6 months pregnant but as it turned out I hadn't fallen pregnant and then felt miserable at having not booked it!

Booked again for September and luckily now I've got my BFP but will still enjoy the holiday just less use of the all inclusive bar!

Alexis I know its hard but you shouldn't write off your chances so soon, if there are no issues you have a really good chance of it happening within 12 months. And if there is an issue then you have the IVF route etc so chances are ou will get your baby.

Have you tried accupuncture? I had irregular cycles so started going and I found the whole process so relaxing and made me a lot more positive, in addition to sorting out my cycles. Also helped reduce my stress levels about ttc which prob helped my chances.

Really hope you get your bfp soon xx

Reiki is also another medium of relaxation too. I was looking into it by month 6 TTC x

Thanks- I have always had regular cycles so not needing to sort that. Maybe I will try accupuncure. We booked up today with a £200 deposit and will pay the balance nearer time we go if we are going. If we get preggers we loose the £200 but prepared to risk it. We are going to Ko samui and Bangkok.

My work colleages waters broke today and shes only 26 weeks. Shes in hosp over night and baby maybe be delivered only 2.5lbs . So worried for her

 

[Ttc1234]

Hope your work colleague is ok alexis - what hospital is she in?

Wishaw gen?

 

[MoominGirl]

Alexis - glad you booked something. Will give you something to look forward to.

Might be worth looking into acupuncture. I'm fairly new to it but I've found that I've generally been more relaxed and feel better in myself. It sounds like something that you could benefit from. I also have regular periods so I don't get that benefit from it like some ladies report.

I know exactly how you feel. It took me 18 months to conceive our first child. No problems, I finally went to get some help from the GP in September 2014 who told me to come back when my period started. I never went back because I fell pregnant that month! We were so happy when we found out! I'm a big believer of things happening for a reason. Sometimes it just takes some of us a little longer than we'd wish. Fingers crossed that it happens for you soon.

For me, I'd book that holiday. My husband and I went to Vegas in July with our friends who found out they were pregnant in April. They never expected to get pregnant so fast but we still had an amazing time together. We're going to Dubai in April next year to see family, I'm hoping that I'll be pregnant by then, but don't want to miss out on seeing them in case I am.

Enjoy your life as you never know when it may happen and as someone else has said the relaxation and enjoyment may help xxx

Thanks ! yeah thats us on to month 9 and nothing seems to be happening. We booked it and we go to thailand in 8 months. We Could easily still be here ttc in 8 months time and I think a holiday would be very well needed by that point. I am already emotionally drained and fed up. I guess it makes it worse I always had a feeling I wouldn't be able to get pregnant and it's now a reality. I genuinely fully believe it won't happen for us. I am kinda trying to make myself accept it ...it's really the hardest thing to do but in the long run it means when we have tried everything I won't be so devestated.

I think living life as normal is definitely the right thing to do. I think with all the stress that goes with TTC, you need to be able to take a break and get away from things. Also, I find it helpful to have things to look forward to. A lot of the things we've been doing have been the sort of thing that we most likely wouldn't do if we had a baby and although that will be a whole new chapter of our lives, I think it's important that we still enjoy this chapter while it's still just the two of us.

I know where you're coming from about feeling like it will never happen. I've always had this feeling for no good reason really and I did find it incredibly difficult to accept that it was coming true. I guess I've always been the sort of person who prepares for the worst but hopes for the best if you know what I mean. I cope best if I have a plan of action and I remember when I was at your stage of investigations feeling so isolated and generally hopeless. It did get better as we started going through the process.

Thanks Moomin. I just wish I could get a doc appt ...seems to be difficult at mo. I am convinced my coeliac disease is having an effect. I have read about own body antibidies attacking the sperm and the egg if tries to implant...now paranoid!
