How are we all?

[Nurse 26]

Hey ladies!

Seems very quiet in here i know maybe and louise are on their Holibags, lucky things!!

How is everyone else?

We are waiting on surgery on 19th July now, not long to go but boring all the same, Dr said we can TTC this month "if it makes us feel better" he made it quite clear that we wouldnt be able to get BFP till our problem is fixed with the hysteroscopy had positive OPK yesterday but didnt bother to BD, we may tonight but only if we are in the mood.

Hey Nurse, it is quiet isnt it!? Im in limbo with no sign of an af and waiting on my blood results coming back. Can't get an appointment till 12th July. Just keeping going with the opk's and had a couple of lines over the last wee while (9thMay last spotting) but not sure Ive had a positive. Im beginning to wonder if they work for me as I do wee a lot. I have to go every 2 hours and it always seems quite diluted. Just wish I knew where I was.

On the plus I did an ic hpt this morning to double check no BFP (I wish). So the paths clear for my girls cocktail party tonight. Im hosting it due to my hubby being on a stag!

 

[Nurse 26]

Hey laura, being in limbo is the worst i thought i was getting back into TTC now i know it wont be possible till after op i feel a bit bummed out!

Opk's can be a bit of a pain, i am like you drink and pee alot, OH jokes that i have the bladder of a 90 year old already, but i have found that the OPK' work even if my wee is diluted. Although after my first MMC i didnt get a positive OPK till the third month after so my hormones must have taken a while to kick back in. I hope you get blood results back ok hun.

Oh cocktail party yummy i had 2 glasses of wine last night and woke with a headache havnt been drinking much since started TTC end of last year. I hope you have a fab night hun and can relax and forget some of the stresses of TTC. We are heading out for a meal with my parents tonight so should be nice.

xx

Well ill join you with the bladder of a 90 year old! LOL. I cant drink any wine at all. Love Rose with a huge passion but the next day it gives me the worst sore head ever! Even one glass unfortunately!

A nice meal sounds good to me. Enjoy your night! Xxx

 

[stephj25]

Hi guys, Is it me or is everyone having a bad few weeks?

Lets hope it gets better for us all eh?

 

[laurat]

Im thinking so Steph! Lets hope things perk up soon! Im going to try to cheer up a bit! Nothing I can do till the 12th!

 

[stephj25]

Ok, I'm going to try and cheer you up...here goes....

I was in the restaurant yesterday when I suddenly realized I desperately
needed to pass gas. The music was really, really loud, so I timed my
gas with the beat of the music.

After a couple of songs, I started to feel better. I finished my coffee,
and noticed that everybody was staring at me....

Then I suddenly remembered that I was listening to my iPod.

 

[Nurse 26]

Thats a brilliant story steph, gave us all a giggle when are feeling rubbish

Yep we could all do with some good news around here!!

 

[laurat]

OMG I actually just laughed out loud at this story! Hysterical!

Ive got one. When shopping with hubby on Thursday I was a bit crabbit (jealous as he was going away). Anyway I walked (huffed) away to get some melons. Came back to the trolley chucked in the melons and was perplexed to find oatcakes in it. In a very bitter almost shouting voice I demanded why are you buying oatcakes??? To which a guy ive never seen before looked completely bewildered amd just whispered. I like them! Poor man, I had to apologise! Hubby was about 3ft away!

I'm having a fed up month too, think it's just the psychological thing of getting to 2 years off pill and nothing happening. Have decided to take this month off completely from ttc, and then start next month with a more relaxed approach, and just bd regularly but when we're in the mood.

It could be a while yest b4 we get pg, and I can't let it run my life any more. Might as well take the extra time to finish the upstairs of my house, pay off the rest of my car and go on holiday in October )

[Nurse 26]

skeando, think you have a good plan there, TTC can really get on top of you at times, a break always helps. xx

 

[Naomi D]

I had a break a couple of months ago too. It does help - I think that the stress of ttc and work and exams was getting to me and my ovulation signs were getting less and less, til eventually I wasnt even getting a positive opk. Im hoping that this month we will be much more relaxed and my ovulation will be back to normal.

It is so hard when other people dont understand the urgency too. I went to the docs in april and he referred me to a specialist, well I phoned them a couple of weeks ago, as I still hadn't had an appointment - and the doc originally said it would be about 3 months - to be told that the waiting list is 6 months! My appointment should be at the end of August!! Needless to say I am really gutted about having to wait so long, especially as Im 35 this year. Im just thinking that if the initial appt takes this long, how long will it take to get any sort of tests or treatment?
Still, at least the summer is here, and we've had a gorgeous weekend!

 

[Nurse 26]

aww Naomi, 6 months?? thats crazy. Do you have private healthcare or can you afford private? i hate stupid NHS waiting lists!!!

I hope you get a positive OPK this month, When i had MC that totally messed up my OV too, was having normal cycle but no positive OPK till 3rd month after, i think stress can really be a factor. Hope things are back to normal this month.

Nothing beats a good fart joke, I do like a bit of toilet humour!!

This section def needs a pick me up as we seem to have had a flurry of bad news.

Hope all you lovely ladies are keeping strong and big hugs to those who are having a tough time.

 

[stephj25]

Maybe someone should start a joke thread in here to make us all feel better!!

I feel rubbish today - really not liking the idea of cutting out red meat, wheat, caffeine, chocolate and dairy (sigh)

 

[Nurse 26]

I was thinking the same, we need some good news!!!! too much doom and gloom round here

 

[skeando]

Then will need to be back to watching what i'm eating/drinking a bit. Enjoying the break right now tho
