MAD HATTERS AND MARCH HARES????? IN HERE!

1000 replies

Ready · 02/02/2007 15:16

Or should that read Mad TTCers and March Hopefuls??

Thought that I would start a March thread as from tomorrow I will no longer be eligible for the February thread. Of course I will be lurking and keeping fingers crossed for those still in with a shout... but it's time to move on.

Who's with me???

I've updated me as I think I'm on CD22 now.
I'm actually trying not to think about it all too much this month but no doubt I will still insist on driving myself mad over the next few days or so!! Argghhhhh!

i've already worked out i can test a week saturday (03 march,day af due)......or before??

rattling · 21/02/2007 12:47

Just updating my dates too. I've got a couple more days before I start ov. tests. DH has promised not too drink much this weekend as I need him in peak fitness from Sunday. Is it wrong that he gets turned on by me handing him a smoothie to take to work? Smoothies and brazil nuts - signs he is on a dead cert when he gets home .

I know that AF is due in Feb and not March but my cycle hasn't settled down yet so I consider myself on the cusp! Means I can hang around here for the rest of the month aswell because I am pretty sure I am not pg!

Scorpio, thanks for asking, but I am downtrodden again today, that's 2 days on the bounce, completely unlike me. And DH has asked me about 10 times over the last few days what's wrong, so it must be written all over my face. I am never this down for this long.

Pinkslippers, ask whatever questions you want. No one will think you sound stupid. When I was first on MN I asked SOOOOO many questions!! Ask away

Hi everyone else, hope you are all having fun

Ready-sorry to hear that maybe do something tonight,like go out for dinner or something?help cheer you up?its hard not to think about it,isnt it? (to help cheer you up)

cityangel · 21/02/2007 13:20

Ready mate big cheer you up hug on its way

I hope you feel better soon

It is tough and I too am fed up with no easy way to fix it either.

Still trying to be postitive this month as its CD21 OV and dh is coming home early

I like Scorpio's idea of distracion technique. Go out and do something you could't if you were pg!

Greenblock · 21/02/2007 13:32

I'm sure some people on this list are completely out of date now .. last time I did it I updated everyone 3 days (or whatever it was) but now I've lost track of who has changed and who hasn't. What's the best strategy now?

Also, give that my CD was completely made up I have changed it to reflect the fact that I think I ovulated on Monday. And we all know that all women ovulate on CD14 and have a 14 day luteal phase .

Ready, big hugs sending your way! You always cheer me up with your chirpiness and optimism!

pinkslippers · 21/02/2007 14:53

Everyone is entitled to a down day ready..not just about ttc but just everyday things.

I had so many questions last night and now i've forgotten them, lol.

oh yeah...If you've had a miscarriage what are the odds of it happening again?? i might have said this before but it's playing on my mind. I am just soooo scared that if i get pg again, i will loose it again. I suppose the fear is never being able to have anymore babies i suppose i would like another 2,, which would mean i would have four. I would love to make my dp happy. and have mini dp's running around the place.

I've had a bubbly feeling in my womby area what's taht about? and achy back but i'm not due on for about the 8/9 march i think. lol. I'm not very good about taking note. lol.

Greenblock · 21/02/2007 14:58

the doctor said to me 4% chance of recurrent miscarriage. so quite low, compared to 25-35% chance of miscarriage in any pregnancy.

pinkslippers · 21/02/2007 15:00

Really?? with my m/c someone said to me, and i'm not sure if this is correct or where they've got it from but it might be the bodies way of testing before it happens. I haven't been pregnant since 7 years ago, also with a different partner. I might be complete rubbish though.

That is low though, when did you m/c how far gone were you? and sorry too.

pinkslippers · 21/02/2007 15:01

it* may be rubbish not me, lol,.

Greenblock · 21/02/2007 16:07

don't worry I am completely over it, happened two weeks ago at six weeks.
it wasn't meant to be.

fruitful · 21/02/2007 16:09

Pinkslippers - I think the main cause of 'random' miscarriage is a dodgy egg or a dodgy sperm. i.e. a fertilized egg that is genetically wrong and isn't going to be able to develop into a baby. And all of us have a certain percentage of not-quite-right eggs/sperm so sometimes it happens.

And if you've got 2 kids already it probably wasn't a miscarriage caused by all the other reasons (hormone imbalances, immune disorders, dodgy-shaped uterus ...).

pinkslippers · 21/02/2007 16:18

thanks fruitful.

I had a m/c at 6 weeks too. It's so upsetting cause i never even dreamed it would happen. In the long run i'm glad it happened then not when it was more developed. Any my heart reaches out too all the mums that have lost later too.

gillian1973 · 21/02/2007 16:20

just a quickie...
Ready (((hugs))) to you. Go and watch a film or better still get a DVD and watch it at home and have a nice meal (I won't suggest wine as i know you don't drink).

I can recommend my feel good movie - Everyone Says I Love You by Woody Allen. It is silly and you will laugh. It will not remind you of babies and the only thing that will make you jealous is the amazing New York apartment.

got to go ...
