The Hut of Gl/Doom Part V- for the unapologetically despondent

The new hut. Ta-da!

This one is a snug little basement World War 2 type nightclub, with dim lighting, snug velvet sofas, red walls and certainly no politically correct smoking bans. Occasionally certain selected men may be admitted at our convenience.

Sit down, make yourselves at home, and never, ever apologise for feeling like shit. That's about it.

he might put you on clomid. thats what my old cons was going to do. glad HSG went well, mine was vv painful (altho doc tried to push dye thru my tubeless side

Hello guys herby I agree with the others and continue ttc just tell them you're not. Who knows what will happen, but it all due to fate. The pill seriously mixes you around, wish I hadn't been on it for 10 years without a break.

I had HSG yesterday, good news is there is no blockages etc... Was uncomfortable but not too bad. I have missed fertile time this month but as had yellow fever injection 2 weeks ago not sure whether to ttc next month or not.

Have looked on web and advice ranges from 2 weeks to three months before trying. Not sure what to do?! Have a few weeks to decide though.

HSG showed no blockages so that was good. Due to see my consultant in April, not sure what the next stage is. Does anyone know???

OracleInaCoracle · 08/03/2008 15:37

how about "The hut of gl/doom - and yes we've tried fecking relaxing!"

OracleInaCoracle · 08/03/2008 15:36

herby, pre-ds we were going to adopt. one of those annoying stories whereby we got through the 1st stage, i started throwing up 2w later and ds came along 8m after that! agree that you should carry on ttc in the meantime, you'll never forgive yourself if you dont.

sorry ive not been around ladies, been far too chipper for the hut. but my period is now 3d late (regular as clockwork) shows no sign of landing, did a hpt today and..... bfn. im so pissed off. havent been obsessing about it this month, so why hasnt the fecking thing shown up. have managed to convince myself its another ep and that im screwed... oh well.

hope you are all ok, ronshar tis good to see you. do we have a new name for the hut yet?

Use the withdrawal method. It worked for my parents 7 times.

ARRRRSSSSEEEE (That was especially for you Duchesse). Am sure you've said before but have you been to the docs at all about it. I know you've been ftc a long time.

Also bad time of year here - my due date for the baby I lost was 15 March so we are coming up to what would have been his/her first birthday. ARSE ARSE AND ARSE AGAIN.

Herby - I think Duchesse is right - after all no contraception is 100% reliable is it ?

Wheely- let's arse arse together. Day 1 again for me (er, not that I'm trying to ftc at the moment, just not not trying. If you see what I mean). Am convinced something is wrong, just really unsure what to do about it.

herby- if you think you can manage having two babies at the same time (and you wouldn't be the first to adopt and then get pregnant- I know two people to whose parents this happened), then I personally would tell the social worker you are, and then not. Apart from anything else, you don't really want to start taking the pill, do you? And condoms can be unreliable. Tell her you're using them. The social worker will be worried about whether you would want to hand back the adopted baby if you had one of your own (honestly people do do things like that!!) which would manifestly be crap for that baby, or that they won't love them as much as their blood child.

Hello girls.

I'd been feeling quite chipper, so natch not coming into the hut, but seem to have hit another low.

We've been looking into adoption, but TBH we were going to keep trying for a baby too, and see what happens first. We had an interview with a social worker yesterday to get the ball rolling (which took four months to organise) and she said strictly we should use contraception during the assessment process, so as not to muddy the waters. I thought I'd be Ok with this, but I'm not. I'm just not ready to give up having our own baby, even though it's so unlikely. I feel like I'd be letting all our lost babies down. And DP seems to have taken the social worker's word as gospel. All confused.

wheelybug · 06/03/2008 17:41

oh arse. Feels like AF is on its way. Due over the weekend sometime and although we pretended we weren't trying we most certainly did. But I don't care because we're going on hols on Saturday and I didn't want to be pg really because it would have messed up skiing.... Am I convincing anyone ???

ARSE ARSE ARSE.

Rmm- sorry, but there are quite a few of us fighting for the title of Negative Queen.

Please somebody tell me I'm being stupid for even thinking about buying some pregnancy tests. I mean, we officially gave up ftc* months ago. It's a bad idea to buy more, right?

  • NB for newish Huttees: Here in the Hut we don't like to use optimistic expressions such as "Trying To Conceive". We feel that "Failing To Conceive" injects just the right note of deep pessimism. We leave that chirpy TTC malarkey for the boards where they do just that.

Thank you everyone.
I was honestly starting to think that i was the most negative person around!!
We aren't trying this cycle either - so in a way i don't feel the pressure of every cycle, but i still feel as though i have failed in some way.
I have an appointment with my gyno this afternoon. DH has had enough of the bruised arms and TVSs and he wants answers!!! I wish things were that simple!!
On the upside we have deiced to set ourselves limits once we know the exact situation.
Does wanting another dc make me incredibly selfish?????
