duggs, I feel a bit like you do at the moment but from a slightly different perspective. I feel like this treatment is still all such a gamble, especially as I fear it may be what's causing the problems conceiving in the first place. And then if I finally do, what's to say I won't have another m/c? But then, if I come off it and manage to get pregnant there's the risk of the same result. I am feeling a bit like a roulette playing guinea pig these days!
I'm not holding out much hope of a BFN I'm afraid but thanks to those of you being optimistic on my behalf! I have been having very AF type cramps the last 3 days and I think it may only be the progynova keeping my period at bay. Oh, and maybe just a luteal phase of 10dpo. We didn't do a load of SWI this month as we didn't think I was going to ovulate, and also we were both ill.
choccy, I think that's a great idea that you give yourself a little time of anxiety free normality. It's probably just what your head and heart need right now. Enjoy your holiday. I'm pleased to hear that your work are being amenable. What a difference it must make to work for a company like that.
PQ, sorry to hear about your shitty time and work. That's one of the things I really appreciate about being self employed and never working with the same people for longer than a day at a time. When I've had 'normal' jobs, whether they be in an office or in retail, it's always working with other women that ends up being a problem. Not in general, of course, but there always seems to be one or two who are nasty and competitive and find it necessary to be a complete bitch.
greenolives, I know what you mean about reading the other MN threads. When I used to get pregnant quickly I used to read the conception threads a lot more. I've not spent much time on that part of the forum (apart from our threads which are bookmarked) for a while but I used to wince whenever I read the threads that said things like, "I've just been offered a promotion/new job but I've just found out I'm pregnant. Should I take it, or be honest and turn it down?". It used to make me remember all my missed opportunities and want to tell them that there are no guarantees and that they should take the job in case it was the only thing to look forward to that year but you don't want to ruin their optimism or naivete, which we once had too!
I can't believe there are so many babies due now! It's amazing. Those of you who have your babies, and those of you due any time now, please do (time permitting) stick around. You are still our hope!
Thinking of snoopy. Hope you're holding up ok. x
free, have a lovely time in Florence. I'm jealous!
Best of luck to comedy, coconut and igggi. I will be lurking for your news.
