The hut of gl/doom: ttc against the odds

[PhoenixFromTheFlames]

This is a safe haven for those ttc with difficult, with ?sub-fertility or sub-fertility labels. Where like minded people offer encouragement at times and commiserations at others.
I've decided the theme is Cocktail style: Flanagans. With a pink neon sign: Cocktails and dreams. Blinkity blink.
Newbies are welcome. Come share your tales of woe

Phoenix any news?

Pink glad no pain im still keeping everything crossed for you. I will share my favourite quote from a disney film woops
Faith is a blue bird, we see from far. It's for real and as sure as the first evening star, you can't touch it or buy it or wrap it up tight but it's there just the same, making things turn out right.

I dont mean that as religious faith as such just a hope that all will be well

I'm glad it's no worse pink though I'm sure it's a horrible time for you.
My pain got bad after lunch but the liquid morphine kicked in so I'm comfortable at the moment. No medical review today, will see what they say tomorrow. Nice girl come into bed next to me :)

Well still bleeding here but 2 tests showed positive so slightly at ease but not to much :-) ppl say the hormones stick around so who knows I got a couple of weeks off work for it do

Still keeping things crossed for you pink, positive tests sound good though :)

I had a nice relaxing weekend - DH has been ill with the cold I had last weekend and stayed in bed for most of it. Getting up this morning with the clocks changing was a chore though.

Survey being carried out on our new house today - things are starting to happen. We are hoping to be in by the end of May. Also applied for a new job local to the new house, please everyone keep your fingers crossed for me!

Faith hope you are comfy, and you finally get a diagnosis today.

Woohoo on the new house delilah and keeping my fingers crossed for your job what was It you applied to do?

pink that's great news - holding on to hope - I think such early bleeding would be chemical pregnancy and you'd start to get bfn not that I'm an expert but from what I understand from MN
dee that's fab news, glad things are moving forward. You'll be in before you know.
Yes I'm pushing for a diagnosis today! I'm hoping to see a non-surgeon because they don't really think it's a surgical issue. I've written down what I want to say and will not be fobbed off with any more wait and see if you get better It's been two weeks, it's not getting better! I'll keep you posted.
Hope everyone else is ok. Nice to see you around again Carrie.

I don't know what it is but I just feel like something's not right..hmmm another day off with hubby tho so can't be that bad

Bless you, all we can do is sit and hold your hand.
Well I've now got a working diagnosis of renal colic/kidney stones. Getting another scan today/tomorrow and a CT scan if it's inconclusive. Think I might get home in next few days :)

Ohhh that's good news then faith x

Faith glad u have a diagnosis, hopefully you will be better soon!

Delilah glad house moving along how exciting!

Pink i think positive is a good sign, not an expert but holding on to hope!

Fertility wise i could be ov'ing any day now i totally forgot about opks again with the work situation DP and i have not been focused on dtd at all so in reasonably sure this month im out, with the uncertainty at work that may be wise, need to know where i stand first. Have a sinking feeling about work DS had a nasty fall off of slide today too (pretty much landed in feet then went forward and face planted concrete slavs) so am certainly feeling like the worlds out to get me, the hut is very appealing at the mo!

maybe don't even get me started on world conspiring against me! I'd try not to worry too much about the nookie - just try to go for it tonight! I hope ds perks up soon.

Even if I have lost the bean me an dh only dtd twice over the ovulation period so hold on to hope

The world is a pretty cruel place feel like absolute crap not physically just emotionally no real symptoms today had a 3 hour sleep this afternoon and keep going for a wee bleeding is still going on still red but still only when I wipe on training tomorrow so that will get me out of the house :-)

Feel like someone up there has seriously got it in for me and it is not very funny still got 2 weeks till scan grrrr just wanna know positivity it slipping away

Faith no chance dp on nights for next two weeks so will be as and when for next few weeks, am trying to think of it as if its meant to be with everything thats going on it will be... easier said than done have fallen off of the band wagon majorly diet wise so am going to focus on that i think!
DS is ok thanks i think i was worse than him, closely followed by the insanely affectionate cat!

Pink i am still hoping for you, i would say two weeks will fly by but theory of relativity kicks in so all we can do is hand hold!

Keep telling myself at least we have sunshine! I think a shower and snuggled up early night is in order!

pink I'm a teacher, so it's a similar job to the one I'm doing - but without the commute. I'm expensive though as I have a fair bit of experience, and I'm competing with cheap NQTs. Won't hear if I have an interview until mid-April at the earliest though. Hoping that the bleeding stops soon, I'm still keeping fingers crossed.

BB dieting, what dieting? I have given up on mine - my dinner was sausage sandwiches. Nom. Hope you have a nice early night - exactly what I'm planning, as my body was very confused with the clocks changing and I am knackered.

Faith hooray, home is in sight! At least if they know what is wrong you can hopefully be fixed quite quickly.

I am busy busy busy with work this week - roll on the Easter holidays. Although we are running mocks for all classes pretty much this week, so my marking pile is going to be huge. Holiday, what holiday?

Hehe I feel like that top delilah I have no holiday either mind you just having yesterday off killed me I was so bored as I left everyone I needed to do at work

I to am not impressed by the clocks changing am knackered I think that explains the naps in the afternoon dh is at work today I'm off to training about vulnerable 2 yr olds and then a nice chilled afternoon

Bleeding has slowed dramatically and the cramps are back like they were when I found out last week (before the bleeding) will do a test every monday till the scan then at least I can prepare myself...

Have a lively day everyone

That job sounds great dee, keep us posted. I seriously thought about teaching but I felt I had so much medical knowledge, it would be a shame not to use it. Also I wanted my holidays to be my own!
The bleeding slowing down is really encouraging pink - so it's only ever been spotting? I'd be inclined to test regularly too.
I'm waiting for a follow up scan. The pain is horrible. Wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy!

It was spotting Friday full flow (only when I wiped) sat and sun and yesterday it slowed today nothing so far will test again Friday

Ok doc has decided going straight for CT scan. Have requested bloods to wee if I'm diffed just in case because we have dtd around ov time - wouldgny that be ironic?! But if I'm having radiation I need them to check.
Reporting for hand holding duty come Friday pink.

Scratch that still bleeding

just looking in to say hi.
haven't read all the way back, but tentatively hand holding for pink.
exciting news on the house front and hope the job works out, delilah and hope you do get home soon faith - being in hospital is rubbish.
hope everyone ok outside of fertility matters.

marbles lovely, how nice to see you -how are you? Things progressing ok?
I've been CT scanned so just need to wait for the report and doctors to tell me about it. Finally a step forward since Saturday!

Woohoo faith let us all know how u get on...

Another test 15.06 - positive still

That's good pink. Very encouraging

Thanks faith x
