Soooo, just been reading my friends' blogs and all I can really say is that TTC sucks much more than I ever gave it credit for.... it's easy to say "it will happen in time", or "not long to go now, you jsut wait and see"... but you can't guarantee anything and nothing I can say or do is going to change that. I wish I knew why it happens so much easier for some than for others but the whole thing is a mystery to me. All I can do is be there for those poor girls if and when they need me. It's my nature to be the crazy optimist, but I know how much reality can get you down - even for the most determined optimist..... girls, you know who you are and I hope like hell every day that this cycle will be THE ONE for each of you. Stay strong, as strong as you can, and your TTC friends will always be here for you xxx
As for me, there's really nothing too important to note... just back from visiting the family for a few days which was nice. Also, the nausea and extreme fatigue seems to be reducing noticably which I can't explain how much of a relief that is. I almost feel normal again, and whilst I wouldn't have traded that feeling for anything, it really does take the shine off the whole experience.... but now things are starting to feel much better. I have the blood test this week to check for downs syndrome etc and then 12 week scan thursday the 13th of May. I have everything crossed it will all be ok. After that point I can breathe a little easier and I won't mind telling people after that point!
Other things I'm noticing.... been very bloated this past week. Not showing of course, but my tummy feels like it's completely full of gas and would explode if I popped it with a pin! Think it might have something to do with the fact that I'm a bit "bunged up". Sorry, TMI I know!! Been eating as much food with fibre as I can stomach but have been off most vegies for 5-6 weeks now so that's not helping. Bought sultana bran yesterday and am taking metamucil fibresure a couple of times a day. Also haven't really been doing much in the way of exercise which I don't think helps either. Am back to Combat again tonight and am PRAYING I'll feel well enough to do 3 classes this week. I'd be soooooo happy if that happens!
Anyway, better get back to work. Hi to all my TTC friends and have a wonderful afternoon!
Gym bubba is finally here!!

12 week scan is getting so close! Can't believe how quickly time flies! Although, I'm wondering if for you it has felt like the TWW on super repeat! LOL!
ReplyDeleteCareful with introducing too much fibre too quickly. It can exercerbate the situation in terms of bloating and gassiness - which you don't need. Make sure that you're drinking a lot of water too. All the fibre in the world isn't going to get those guts moving if the contents isn't lubricated cause you're body is diverting it off to bub. :-)
