Pink swayers' December thread

LOL Jen!!! How embarrassing

[Out of the Blue]

My doctor called today to check in on me and wondered why I hadn't booked that follow-up u/s he gave me the requisition for. I explained that I find it emotionally draining to go there and be surrounded by happy pregnant women, so he said he'd look into trying to book me somewhere that doesn't specialize in pregnancies. He also said he could order another blood test for me. I was really hoping to not have another u/s (barring any complications) until I'm pregnant again. Do you think I should follow through and have these tests? Will they be able to tell me anything I don't know already? I'm really sick of being poked and prodded....

Mocha, I say don't get the u/s unless you really want it. Your body knows what it's doing and is taking care of business whether that means resuming the m/c, resuming your natural cycle or starting your new bean. That's why I didn't go back to my doc...I didn't see the need and she understood.

Jen . We've almost been caught before, but never as badly as you did. I'm really sorry to be laughing when I know you're traumatized, but thanks - I really needed a laugh today when I'm feeling so depressed . How old is ds again? Don't worry - I'm sure he'll forget. Just tell him you and dh were having a tickle fight or something.

Mocha - how much are private early pregnancy scans where you are? Perhaps you should have this ultrasound now to know what is happening to your retained tissue, to measure your lining thickness (and perhaps to look at your ovaries)
and then book a self-funded early scan when you do get your BFP anyway?

I think they're just in the midst of changing the laws in Canada to allow private diagnostic scans. I looked on the website for the place I'd been thinking of going for a private gender scan and they have a notice that 'soon' they'll be offering diagnostic scans for early pregnancy as well. If they become available soon enough, I'll do it for sure! There's no way I can wait until 11 weeks to know that my baby's ok!

My instinct is telling me the same thing....but at the same time a small part of me is worried that all this bleeding is due to some retained tissue and I can't get pregnant again until it's gone. I'd hate to wait 3 weeks only to find out THEN that this is the case and have to delay TTC even longer. Oh well, I'm going to wait until Monday to make the appt anyway, and maybe by then I'll have a better idea what's going on.

DS is 3.5...I think it would be waaaaaay worse in about 2 yrs. I think DH is the most traumatized. He even said, "You're going to type this up tomorrow and share it w/your swaying friends, aren't you?"... I said, "Of course!".

Regarding the "tickle fight"....Yeah....don't think so. Looked NOTHING like a tickle fight and certainly didn't sound like one either.

[rainbowflower]

wait a sec, you're saying you can't have an early scan to check on a pregnancy (for non-gender purposes) over there at the moment?? or are you saying you'd have wanted to save up your scan to use at a time when you might be able to see the nub?

I'm feeling down in the dumps this morning...

So I tested this morning even though I KNEW I shouldn't have...(I need to start listening to that "voice" in my head, lol)

and it was still BFN @ 12 dpo...Sigh...anyone get a late BFP? I was using First Response early detection so I dunno, I think I'm out. My period isn't due until Tuesday, so I'm gonna try to stop testing since it bums me out and just see if AF comes.../sigh

A pychic emailed me today from IG and said she saw girl for me in the futre, and guesed I had two boys. She doesn't go on IG anymore so I had to email her, and she also sensed my husband's reluctance/indifference about TTC, and she saw some money issues had held me back from having baby 2 for a while. She said: " I honestly felt it may take a bit longer (to get number 3) but thats just instinct."

Sigh...hope that means I'll get lucky in Dec. I do feel good about a Christmas attempt giving me a baby girl. Now I gotta think: do I want to deal with Rephresh again? it irrirated the crap out of me, but kept my ph at 4.5...which was beautiful and killed my EWCM, which I usually have a ton of....if I do rephresh again, I would definitely try to BD at least twice, since I feel the rephresh might make it harder for the sperm..../sigh

How can I tell my husband all I want for Christmas Day is his penis, gift wrapped, and mine for however many attempts I want at it!! haha

Awww... Have you used this website? Symptoms by Day Past Ovulation | Countdown to Pregnancy This may give you some hope!

Which one on IG? Was it IC1111? Just curious...she'd said "girl" for me too and also said something about her being a twin soul (I lost both). I thought her predictions were pretty good!

Regarding the RepHresh, maybe you'll be healed up in there and it won't do that to you this time...???

Just tell DH that's what you want for Christmas! I tell my DH that everyday as I'm chasing him around the house and trying to drag him up to bed, lol!

for you!!!
