Honestly ladies I can't tell you how blown away I am by all your congratulations and love. It's making me feel all emotional. This little corner of the internet is such a gorgeous supportive place- I don't doubt that if I met each one of the person I would love you as much in real life as I do virtually over the internet. Also appreciate all the understanding about the cat hair 😂. We've got 4 of them so it's a constant battle to keep on top of it!
I'm going to try and respond to you all so here goes!
@Larrydavid I don't have endo sorry but wonder if you have tried tracking your cycle using temps? I found the mouth thermometer a bit stressful to rememebr to do and time right so I have been using OvuSense for the last few cycles which is really amazing. Just wondered if it might help you get a bit more of an idea what's going on with your body as you're recently off birth control too.
@Larrydavid you enjoy that flat white girl!
@ImMeantToBeWorking I think we take a lot of emotional strain on during TTC. Lovely that you can talk to him about it though- it really helps.
@MrsEG it's so heartbreaking to read how thoughtless they have been with you. I'm so sorry what a horrible rough ride you have been through. As others have said don't be afraid to take a day or two to feel shit and angry at the world- always makes it easier to pick yourself up again if you have given yourself the space to just feel how you feel. Agree with @FlapJackered that if it's an option open to you financially it might be worth speaking to someone privately to make sure you are really getting the best and most sensitive care. We all also understand what it's like to see BFPs on FB or wherever. It's so hard. I used to get through it by thinking that maybe they had also had struggles or miscarriages that I didn't know about.
@Lozzlepop Loved the idea of you skipping off for coffee! Really made me smile!
@purplefig Thank you lovely and that's no problem. God knows if the supplements had an effect or not but worth a try I suppose (as is everything!)
@FlapJackered Thanks so much! We are over the moon but trying to be cautious and hasn't really sunk in yet I don't think. It feels like quite a shock still since I really don't have many actual symptoms other than the ones I think I mainly imagined in my head through hoping!
@Dollywilde Thank you and I'm sorry you've had a shit day. Don't give up hope but give yourself the time you need. Sometimes it's good to try and ignore the boards and groups to give yourself a bit of headspace from all the TTC "noise".
@ValidUser I hope your jabs have the desired effect and you are reporting your BFP here soon. Keep us all updated!
I hope you don't mind if I keep checking back in here to see how you all are. I still don't feel like I am on the "other side" of the journey quite yet so don't feel quite ready for the pregnancy boards.
If I don't speak to you over the weekend I hope you all have good one and manage to get a bit of time without TTC on the brain (harder done than said I know).
