Hi everyone, am back from my lovely week beside the sea - instead of a lovely week in Spain (curse you oh ash-filled volcano!!) Feeling refreshed and relatively sane and even a little excited at the idea that my body might be starting to head into normality again.
I did another pg test last Saturday, which would have been about 10 days after the ERPC, and it was -ve. I did plan to start temping again but my waking times were all over the show while on holiday I gave up - will maybe get back into it now I'm back and will be setting an alarm for work (boo hiss).
Have been throwing myself into wine and cheese heaven, but I guess I'll need to start on a more sensible diet if I'm to go back onto Metformin - it doesn't like a high-fat diet .
I spent some time yesterday reading through the last week's posts - so much has gone on sorry I can't remember it all. But some really big news
Gi1da and Alba - Woohoo!!!! congratulations!!! I'm chuffed for you both. Well and truly.
Muser well done on reaching the last month of your wait. It won't be long now before you're missing the freedom of not worrying about symptom spotting etc
dorcas111 I'm really sorry to hear of your miscarriage. I had a MC before having my first - it was really early, but I found it much more devastating than this latest miscarriage which was a lot later into the whole thing. I literally howled with rage and pain and felt in despair for a long long time. I'm sorry you're going through this. Enjoy your holiday!
prettyvacant, can't believe you're getting whacked again with the crapola stick. Hang in there lady.
hello lucysnowe, see above - I'm another PCOS lady and went on metformin to conceive DS, and my latest pregnancy. I'll be starting back on it this week in an effort to get ovulation on track asap.
Freezing, plan to cut back wait to 2 months sounds sensible if you're worried about needing to switch meds. Sounds like you had some down times last week, hope you're feeling a little more positive now.
digitalgirl I'm not sure whether to hope you find something through the referral or not, but am pleased you're getting proper (if slightly confusing) attention.
cheepz am dead impressed with your exercise discipline. I have none. Where do I get it??
Margie32, I'm so sorry for your loss. I find it impossible to imagine how it feels to lose a baby so late. I know there are others here who have experienced it though and hope you will find the support you need.
lindalinda it's really early days to be making decisions about whether or when to start ttc-ing again. I know you probably feel very conscious of time passing, but really a bit longer won't make any difference at all. Take care of yourself and go easy, won't you?
aly323, sounds like a rough ride - must have been fairly dramatic to get diagnosed with gestational diabetes so early.
So I have one small worry that's nagging away at me. I returned home to find a letter from my GP saying he'd received a letter from the hospital who did the ERPC and asking me to make an appointment to see him. Is this normal??
When they did the ERPC they asked my permission to analyse the tissues (sorry ), and I'm worried they've found something wrong. But maybe it's just a standard 'checking you're ok' appointment. Of course actually getting an appointment with my GP will take forever with their stupid booking system so will have to fret on for a little while longer.
