How are you feeling right now?
Anything you want to share of get off your chest?

pepper73 · #2 April 18th, 2011, 06:11 AM

I'm just frustrated in the 2ww. I tested today at 12 DPO and BFN. I know it's not over yet but I'm not optimistic for this month. Oh well...on to the next!

Cait&AngelAbove · #3 April 18th, 2011, 06:16 AM

I am feeling a little lazy today. DH is out of town and I really just want to spend the day in my pajamas but my mom has been feeling down so I invited her to come over for the day. I just want to the next four months to move faster. I do no want to have to see my pg SIL next week. I just want to live the next four months in a bubble so nothing can hurt me. I just feel very raw today. I wish DH was here.

.:Shortcake:. · #4 April 18th, 2011, 06:20 AM

I feel very weird today... have been feeling off for a few days but so ready to get the work day over.

Nothing I want to get off my chest other than I'm very anxious for AF to arrive so I can begin the next cycle.

EJsMommy · #5 April 18th, 2011, 06:25 AM

I did not want to get up this morning but up I went anyway. Want to do something else than work today as it is going to be sunny and about low 70s outside today.

KeepingFaith · #6 April 18th, 2011, 06:35 AM

How are you feeling right now?pretty good. A little lazy right now, but DD and I are going to visit me Mom at her campground in a while.
Anything you want to share of get off your chest? just waiting to O and hoping my LP is longer this cycle.

LindseyE117 · #7 April 18th, 2011, 06:38 AM

I am also in the 2WW at 8 DPO. All tests negative so far. I had a feeling this month too. Then again, I hate doing this to myself. I have a horrible fear that I will never get pregnant again because it took us so long last time. I try not to get my hopes up, because I hate hurting each month.

I also had a strange dream last night that I had twins--a boy and a girl. I was so happy that I was crying and holding them. I refused to let them go. They did not have the blue eyes I wanted, but a pretty light brown, almost hazelish eyes. I just wanted to do the best I could and I tried breastfeeding both at one time. I was so happy in my dream. I never dream about that stuff either.

Also, my husband and I finally caved and I am taking my son today to the doctor to discuss putting him on medication for his ADHD. We have known that he has had it for years, but I wanted to exhaust every other means of trying to help him before we even considered medication. Nothing has helped--diet, exercise, activities, stress balls, herbal remedies, etc. It's time unfortunately, because his grades are slipping even though the teachers remark how he is extremely smart. He can even read a Harry Potter book in 2 hours (he is only 9). Plus his behavior is out of control. He is losing friends because of it. I just want him to be happy and not feel bad about being bullied by other kids because of it. *sigh*

I'm feeling super tired this morning. DD fell out of bed last night and DS woke up three times with bad dreams, so little sleep was had at our house last night.

I'm also feeling a little frustrated with my lack of a cycle. I was all set to call the dr this week...I stopped using OPKs and was sure I hadn't O'd. Then Saturday I had EWCM so now I'm reluctant to call the dr until I'm sure there's no chance. I feel like I've been strung along for two months. I would much rather AF just get here so I can feel like I have a chance with the next cycle. Instead I just keep waiting.

StaceygirlPa · #9 April 18th, 2011, 07:32 AM

How are you feeling right now? Tired and hoping the day goes by fast.

Anything you want to share of get off your chest? I feel like our life is on hold until we get the testing done the beginning of May. I am trying to get everything around the house done, trying to get everything ready for Easter and our 1st anniversary before my surgery on Wednesday.

NsMommy · #10 April 18th, 2011, 08:13 AM

Caitlin, I understand. All 3 of my sisters were pregnant after I had my last loss. Two have had babies. My angel's due date is coming up. I wanted to hide away and dreaded EVERY time I had to talk to a sister/see one.

Shortcake, did you test? I think I missed a post?

EJsMommy, I know! The weather is gorgeous here today. I just want to go home and enjoy it.

KeepingFaith, I hope your LP is longer too!

Lindsey, 8 dpo is still early, right? Please don't give up. Sorry about your son and his ADHD. I had a boyfriend in college who had it. He didn't like the meds. He seemed to struggle a lot and was frustrated often.

Nikki, sorry about your O struggles. And I understand about lack of sleep. My son wakes at least 2 times still and he's three.

Stacygirl, I hate being in limbo. I hope the time goes by quickly and the test results are manageable.

As for me:
I'm tired and worried. Nothing major to get off my chest right now.

Moldovandish · #11 April 18th, 2011, 12:49 PM

Had my HSG today and the results are normal.
We're also traveling internationally on Wednesday for a couple of weeks and hope we will still be able to TTC well this weekend (considering we'll be staying in a room with our 3 year old HAHA.)

LindseyE117 · #12 April 18th, 2011, 03:53 PM

Well doc said my son needs meds. He starts them Wednesday. We'll see how it goes.

I did test and it was negative but I'm okay

Just have to wait for AF to arrive now that I stopped the progesterone. I hope you get some rest and whatever your worried about works out.

I can relate to the life being on hold thing. DH and I have felt like that for years but now we are just going with the flow... while still actively trying if that makes sense.

I hope things with your body get sorted out soon I know how frustrating that is.

I hope your LP is longer this cycle as well. Fingers crossed!

HUGS! I wish I could take your pain away. I'm here if you ever need to talk.

Here's to hoping you get your baby in the new year

j&jmom · #14 April 18th, 2011, 05:32 PM

I'm exhausted. Dh just booked our hotel for our vacation in June and I just want school to be over with so I can enjoy doing nothing for awhile. This year has just been really hard with dh and I living in different cities and I'm just anxious for this school year to be over with . . . plus it's the time of the year when my students start going crazy and state testing starts . . .ugh!

-Anna- · #15 April 18th, 2011, 06:52 PM

I feel lost. I lost the baby last week and I feel very empty...I also can not start TTC again until next cycle...so I feel lost there too.

I just feel like I am at a standstill with everything.

I am glad that I stopped bleeding though. At least the constant reminder everytime I go to the bathroom is gone.

joyguide · #16 April 18th, 2011, 09:11 PM

Anna - I completely feel for you! I lost mine last week as well (D&C on Friday) so that lost and uncertain feeling...I know very well. But the weeks will pass...they always do...and we're all here for you. Let me know if you need to chat or vent.

As for me.....very tired and a little on the less than motivated side. They physical side effects from Friday's D&C suck...skin's breaking out, appetitie is out of control, water/weight gain and hair loss. BLAH. Even if DH and I were cleared for playtime right now (we have to wait the two weeks)...trust me, there'd be nothing going on! I feel like a hobbit. And I'd rather him not have his first intimate experience after our long doctor ordered hiatus be that of a hobbit.

LindseyE117 · #17 April 19th, 2011, 04:12 AM

I woke up this morning wanting desperately to test, but I am trying to hold off until tomorrow. I have to be strong on this one. The further along, the more sure I am.

NsMommy · #18 April 19th, 2011, 05:29 AM

Lindsey, I hope your son feels better on the medication. I imagine it's hard for all of you. Hugs! Also, you're doing well restraining yourself! I obviously have NO self control on the POAS thing

I saw "I woke up this morning" and started thinking about the Sopranos song in the split second before I got to the next word "wanting". Glad you didn't "get yourself a gun". Yes, I am weird.

Anyway, I feel great this morning. I was beat the last two days because I kept staying up until 2AM playing a video game then having to get up early. Awesome game though. I went to bed at 8 last night, so it catches up eventually.

Blue_fire · #20 April 19th, 2011, 05:54 AM

I also feel a bit lost. I had my d&c 2 and a half weeks ago. And I'm still spotting. This Saturday will be 3 weeks. This is my fourth loss with no live babies. I feel so incompetent, inept, and useless. I feel like I want to close my business and hibernate away from everything.....for years. I just am so tired of telling people that the baby is gone.
And....I'm far more sad this go round than I expected, and I'm being hard on myself for not sucking it up and just blowing past it. I just feel stuck in the sad.
