♥ JULY 2011 TTC Boy Chit Chat Thread ♥

Lola- I think you missed my joke earlier, I want a shirt that says "I got fat on purpose but please don't ask me why" lol I can't imagine being around ubber fit dancers all day, ouch.

Daisy- great attitude, on to next month! That's great you're a teacher. I love meeting my kids teachers and being involved in class activities. I feel like schools/teachers need all the help they can get.

OK ladies, I'm getting a little nervous here. In 4 previous pregnancy's this has never happened to me. I noticed earlier today the I had like leaked a little and it was slightly colored reddish (not like full on blood) I was leaking a little again and when I wiped this time there was actual reddish colored just pee on the tp. Is this what the beginnings of a miscarriage is like? I'm feeling not crampy per say but kinda feeling some goings on and a bit off.

LOLLLLLL!!!! I totally saw that but had to run at work....I would SO wear that! But ya know, I just suddenly thought about how irratated it will make me to gain 35lbs only to have it "not work." Oy vey. I am trying to stay positive and say that either way is ok. How do you feel about that?

Iluv, thanks for the LUVVVVV! I am so praying for you too, hun...

Layla, I will try to find the threads about the FGD....I know Atomic posted about recent research debunking those theories, because the whole FGD was about minerals (the cal/mag for pink, pot/sod for blue) and only tested on lab rats, and many find it very restrictive. Not saying you shouldn't follow it, but just read about it.....I think it was posted in the "low blood sugar" post from Gizmo. I got turned off by it....but maybe there is some legitimacy to it? I know it cuts all dairy/calcium out, which I do believe is good for fertility.

Tink: god luv ya sister, you are a HOOT! I love your ex story. That is the fantasy of all women who have been MFed!!!!! I would literally pay $1000 to have that sort of scenario set up with a particular ex-bf. I am excited for your attempt soon! Miss you hun! My babies are currently in San Diego with their dad and stepmonster. Making me think of you and Iluv, you Cali beauties!

As for me: WTF is going on in my ovaries? They feel like little factories working overtime! I can barely walk without bending slightly. DH says each one is laying a golden egg to make our twin boys. LOL That seriously makes me break out in a sweat and need Xanax a little bit. Off to BD now!!!! BOW CHICA WOW-WOW!

OH HONEY....don't worry, it could be nothing. Tons of women have little spotting and bleeding for no apparent reason at any time in the first half of pregnancy. Just take it easy and don't stress about it, ok?? I know, easier said than done.....can you go to your doctor in the morning and get another beta? That will surely assuage your fears if it had risen substantially since your last. Ugh, you know there is nothing you can really do....just take it easy. Hopefully it subsides.....keep us updated. SO praying for you and thinking about you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Iluv a lot of women get spotting during their 1st terms of pregnancy and end up with a healthy bub. Spotting can be bad or it can be nothing. For me it was bad but it happened a lot later at 8 weeks. I was then bleeding for 3 weeks even though the u/s showed a bub with a good heartbeat and then I had a m/c. On the otherhand my sil had the exact same symptoms as me at round about the same time. She had period like bleeding for 3 weeks and then everything went back to normal and ended up with a healthy bub. If I did not get pg so soon with dd2 I would have been devastated. Happy for her of course but a reminder of my loss. I am really sorry if I am not helping you in any way, but the thing I learnt quickly about m/c is there is nothing on earth that you can do about them. They may or may not happen, spotting can be nothing or bad, u/s can be good or bad or nothing. My best advice is try to relax if you can and trust me I know better than anyone how hard that is to do. My thoughts are with you and I hope you get through this as you have gotten through worse.

Thanks Lola, scary since I've never had this before. I already have an appt. scheduled tomorrow at 9:45 a.m. so that's great. I emailed my Dr. and he said not to worry but I'm worried. I do know that if this is going to end in a miscarriage there is nothing I can really do about it and the Dr's can't do anything. There's no purpose to sugar coat it since it is what it is. I sure hope it's not but if it's a m/c I'm not sure that DH will be willing to try again. He wants me to go in tonight but I'm trying to tell him that there's nothing they can do to stop it.

GL Lola!! Get to making those babies. How fun that you can feel all those baby eggs and your husbands comment is adorable. Twin boys, that would be so fun. Be careful what you wish for, right.

[Layla]

Yes and Lola's idea of checking your hcg levels is great at 5 weeks this should be a good indication of where things are at.

Thanks Layla, I appreciate the insight and I'm sorry to bring this up for you guys. I've never had a m/c so I wasn't sure but I do realize it is out of my control and it might not be a healthy baby. I know the thyroid increases the risk of m/c so I know I might have more risk this time. Just prayin it's not. Thanks!!

Oh Iluv goodness I'm so sorry you're experiencing that, and the stress/anxiety it brings with it. Thank heavens you have an appt in the am; FX it brings happy news of great hcg levels. HUGS to you in the meantime, I know tonight won't be easy on you.
