Hey everybody left me behind. I'm stuck in limbo waiting for af. My cycles are sooo long its terrible. Can i ride along too? I'll even stand if there aren't any seats.....

TakingTheStairs · 24/09/2012 15:39

okay, slight paranoia. I joked and asked if he thought I was looking heavier and the COO said "god no, it was when we were sorting out the health insurance".. so phew!

TakingTheStairs · 24/09/2012 14:47

YIKES,
I was just chatting to one of my bosses (the COO) and she laughingly said that my other boss (the CIO) had asked if I was expecting!!!
I always laugh with the COO about how my Mum puts pressure on me to have a baby, so she said to him no way was I expecting. And he said good, we need her too much.
Nice that he needs me.. yikes that he's watching!
No more buggy googling in work!!

Thanks for the explaination woody and chookford.

On a completely different subject. I've got a knee injury and have spoken to the dr about it because I need anti inflammatories (sorry spelling terrible at times) and he has told me to keep using them as it would be doing potential harm to a baby if I was in pain, that it would pass to baby and baby would be disstressed. Not sure I've explained that very well, hope you see what I'm trying to say.

littlepinkfizz · 24/09/2012 14:33

Meant NO dark line....

littlepinkfizz · 24/09/2012 14:31

That's great lexi get busy! I'm on day 11 , dark line but more cm so I'm guessing Dtd in next few days would be good!

Thanks for the cakey taking... yummy

chookford · 24/09/2012 14:14

yes I am due to test on the 8th Lexi but to be honest I am not hopeful me and dh havent been dtd that much really had a few ups and downs the last couple of weeks but still it only takes once, so fx! baby aspirin is 75mg which is a lower than normal dose so it soesnt affect the baby in anyway but if you have sticky blood (a condition that affects the placenta from working properly) it can help to have a sucessful pg.. a friend of mine had 4 m/c after a healthy ds and was diagnosed with sticky blood, a month after taking it she got her bfp and had a full term healthy little girl so it can work, but as Woody says your doctor needs to agree to it as some other conditions can be made alot worse by thinning the blood.

woody17 · 24/09/2012 13:59

lexi there are some women on here who have had several mcs and have been advised to take baby aspirin when they get their next BFP. I think it's a smaller dose than you would get in normal aspirin? I think it has something to do with thinning the blood and can possibly prevent clots . But I would only take it if my GP said it's ok.

LexiLoganberry · 24/09/2012 13:48

Thanks woody

Sorry if this is a stupid question, what is baby asprin?

LexiLoganberry · 24/09/2012 13:46

chookfordJust noticed that your bfp is due the day before mine and that there are 3 other bfp's due on the 9th.

woody17 · 24/09/2012 13:44

I actually feel ok. I think it's helped that I just knew there wasn't something right this time. I actually think that the hcg level from the test on Friday will be really low - in a way, I think it was over before it really got going if that makes sense. I do really hope it is third time lucky. I think that I am going to try taking baby aspirin next time - I'm going to mention it to dr tomorrow and see what they say.

FX lexi - glad you got your smiley!

chookford · 24/09/2012 13:36

Woooohoooo Lexi fx tonight is the night!

LexiLoganberry · 24/09/2012 13:36

I'm sorry to hear that woody

chookford · 24/09/2012 13:35

Woody hope you are doing ok? really sucks doesnt it.. life it a bastard sometimes. Hope it wont be too long until you are back on the ttc bus and this time is 3rd time lucky... maybe the Dr will suggest baby aspirin I know a few ladies who have gone on to have successful pg after this, just hope they give you some suggestions! Yes Autumn is def here too... it has been raining heavily since 8 this morning here, and it is really cold... so depressing!

LexiLoganberry · 24/09/2012 13:34

Got excited last night as EWCM appeared and just did my internet cheapie OPK and got a line which is darker than the control line, so off I went to do a CB OPK with the same urine sample and I got a smiley face, I'm so bloody excited, had a wtf cycle 1 last month of 35 days, before I had my marina coil fitted I had a constant 28 day cycle so last cycle was a shock, so pleased it's returned to normal. I'm on cycle day 13.

Text my DH and told him he was going to have to impregnate me, said he'll consider my request

TakingTheStairs · 24/09/2012 13:30

woody, I'm so sorry, you've had such a tough time by the sounds of it Sad

Sorry to hear that purplegeekygirl - hope you are feeling ok

Hello hellomist

Well, I went to dr's today for second blood test (had one on Friday as well) to check hcg levels. Know I've mc now so hoping today's test will be back to 0.

Have made an appointment to talk to dr as to whether there's anything I can do to try and make next one stick.

Hope everyone is ok. Seems like autumn has definitely arrived where I am.

chookford · 24/09/2012 13:18
