4 April 2003

By hissychick | April 4, 2003

I’m feeling a bit lazy so I think I will just paste in a relevant post. The only other things I’ll add are that my cycle is a bit out of whack. I had dark bleeding no cramps start on March 17 and then red bleeidng and cramps start three days later. The total time I spent bleeding/spotting was around 11 days. I couldn’t figure out whether my cycle was the first day of brown bleeding/spotting or the crampy flow which started three days later. I did my first OPK 14 days after I first started any type of bleeding (ie 2weeks after March 17= April 1) so I imagine my surprise when I got a +! Admittedly I was a bit freaked out because I was having pains in my groin and yeah…I thought it may be another ectopic given how long/wierd my period had been. Turns out they were O pains! Can I really be having a 28-29 day “normal” cycle after everything? Anyhow DH and I BDed on the day I got my + OPK..and it was really nice because we weren’t vieiwng it as BDing but rather it was a good old fashioned luurrrvve fest. So it’s only been the one lot pre O. I have had such a crappy stressful week of work trying to get everything organised before going on holidays and I also had a job interview for a permanent position so if this is going to be our month then baby, you’d better be a strong one aand ble to overcome all those stress hormones my body has been pumping out! *sigh* Wel at least i will forget the 2ww to some extent now that I am on holidays. Yeah right! Anyway must get back to cleaning/bringing washing in/packing. PS Oh yeah here’s the post:

**************************************************************

Hi everyone, I’d like to join you in the 2WW. Well there are a lot of new faces since I was last in here so hello to everyone I am yet to meet. It’s also great to see some old familiar faces Anyway DH and I are finally back and officially TTCing after what has been a very stressful time. For those of you who don’t know I had an ectopic pregnancy and I lost my right tube last August A lot of other things have happened since then which I won’t go into except to say it’s great to be back! I expect I’ll be on the TTC boards for some time given that I’m down to one tube and my cycles have been a bit messed up but hey you never know ;-) I think I’m due for AF around April 15. I managed to O on day 14/15 of my cycle which is unheard of for me (I’m normally a 32-35 day cycle kind of girl)…and it also means that DH and I only BDed once at the right time but it only takes the one time really doesn’t it? I got a bit of a shock because I got a positive OPK on day 14, was a bit surprised so I dusted off my thermometer the next morning and figured out my temp was as high as it used to be post O when I used to temp..and it remained high for the next three days! I’ve chucked the thermometer aside again-I hate temping anyway. I promised myself I wouldn’t get too obsessive at this stage (yeah right!) I am going down to Melbourne tomorrow for two weeks holiday so I hope i can keep my mind of the 2WW. It’s a killer isn’t it? I’ve blathered on a bit haven’t I? You’ll have to forgive me because it has been so long since I’ve been on this board lol Take care and good luck everyone

PS If any of you TTC’ers have also been through an ectopic I’d love to chat to you- it would be great to have a buddy who understands what it’s like.
