Post down-reg Flo you're not my friend! 😉

[CheshireKit]

AF arrived in the early hours this morning 4 days after finishing the down-regging drugs. Initially pleased that my body is responding to the process as it should, but now I'm having the period from hell, feel like I've been run over and I'm laid up on the sofa like a bloke with man-flu! I thought after all my healthy eating, no alcohol, no caffeine campaign id be bouncing with health. Looking forward to the stims starting this week so we can get this show on the road! 😉 Hope you're all having a good weekend xx

Hope you're feeling better soon. I came on today too, feeling absolutely wiped!! I'm on metformin for PCOS and my blood sugar went really low today so I've been spaced out and my mouth went all tingly...was a bit weird. Oh the joys and fun we have to go through! Try to keep positive and keep focussing on the stims this week... I've had to have some cake to feel better today... needs must 😉 xx

Thanks Kat9lives 😊 I had a bizarre out of body experience yesterday in the hairdressers when I 'lost' about 20mins, I had to ask if she'd cut my hair before blow drying it as I honestly couldn't remember her doing it! Really hoping it's the hormones, not me starting to lose the plot!! 😂 It freaked me out so much I had to have a Danish to make me feel better! Xx

[Kat9lives in reply to CheshireKit]

Wow that must have been so strange, I don't blame you! I like your thinking... a Danish was obvs what was needed 😉 Hubby is making tea as I'm all spacey on the sofa... he reckons I'm making it up...really not! ha ha! Xx

P.s. what day is your scan this week before starting injections? X

[CheshireKit in reply to Kat9lives]

Having my scan on Wednesday then due to start stims. I'm going to call them first thing tom tho as not sure if I may need to go in sooner. My OH was meant to be cooking tea too but cracked & just ordered dominoes! Back onto healthy living again tomorrow 👍🏼 Enjoy your tea x

Horrid isn't it, have you tried fresh lemon and ginger with honey? Ginger is a natural pain killer even smelling it helps some girls 😘

[CheshireKit in reply to Hidden]

That sounds good thanks, I'll give it a go 👍🏼 😘

Love the fact you've had a danish and dominos! I've tried to eat more of a protein based diet, however we've been staying in a log cabin this week for my hubbys bday so ended up having a fish and chip pub lunch with brownie pudding!! And then tonight went out with with the whole family for a late bday meal and had chips and another brownie! 😂 The way I see it, is to carry on as normal but just a bit healthier (or try too) when i've been pregnant before (although all ended in miscarriage) I was just eating as normal and just living life, so thats what i'm doubg this time round, although eating my brazil nuts every day and will eat my pineapple core from day of transfer. Hope your ok. I replied to your question on the other post, hope you've seen it xx

[CheshireKit in reply to baby2016]

I feel bad that my healthy ways have slipped a bit this weekend but I'll be back on it again this week when I'm back at work 👍🏼 I'm on the Brazil nuts now too and eating pineapple already, I've even ordered some orange knickers!! 😉xx

[baby2016 in reply to CheshireKit]

CheshireKit 😂😂 this made me smile!! Mine turned up this week, a nice bright pair of Orange Calvin Kleins!! 😄 Going to save them for EC and ET if all goes to plan! Lets hope the cract combination of nuts/pineapple/orange knickers brings us the rainbow babies! Its certainly a colourful combination! Back to work for me tomorrow too, had such a nice 2 weeks off relaxing! Went to a log cabin with hot tub this week that allows dogs, it was perfect, wish I could be there for the 2ww!! Hope all goes well this week xxx

[CheshireKit in reply to baby2016]

They'll wonder what's going on at the hospital when we all rock up in our orange pants!! 😆 What types of food are you eating (apart from the pineapple & Brazil nuts of course!)? Xx

[baby2016 in reply to CheshireKit]

😂 especially if we're there on the same day!! Haha! I've not started my pineapple yet, will start eating the core from day of transfer 😩 And probably heave at every mouthful! Mainly been eating more protein, chicken salads for lunch and omlettes and veg for tea with fruit, but mainly trying to keep my weight down as i'm borderline bmi higher level 😬 But have just had a twitl with my brew! Couldn't resist! Did you ring about your scan today? xx

[Kat9lives in reply to CheshireKit]

We all slip up, don't worry. It's completely normal xx

[CheshireKit in reply to Kat9lives]
