Thank you!
Thank you everyone for your best wishes!!! G and I are thoroughly excited, but a bit subdued because the sonography next week should tell us whether the fetus is viable.
I am also a bit worried because I am in a very stressed out space with work. I am flying to Goa tomorrow (something my gynaec was not too thrilled about) and I will be staying there for about a week. I have a major inspection at the factory and I cannot postpone or change it or assign my responsibilities to anyone else. I am just a bit nervous about flying - and G is not happy either, but I really don't have a choice.
I've been warned not to change my diet for the time being (DON'T eat for two!!) - and I've had to give up coffee (sigh). I've been loaded up with yet another vitamin, yet more folic acid and also progesterone because the cyst might lower levels in my body.
The cyst - well, it's acting up. It's pretty huge and the entire right side of my back aches all the time and doesn't allow me to sleep easily. I can't have my favourite massages which used to help, and I can't have ibuprofen either. I wanted to have it aspirated right away, but the docs concur that they should wait until at least 10 weeks for that to even be on the cards. Sigh...
Oh but the good thing! My gynaec told me in no uncertain terms that it was a really good thing I had managed to bring my weight down and was fit over the past year (thanks in no small part to all of you and EP!) else the cyst might have been larger, and less easily managed. I've also found that exercise really helps alleviate the pain so off for walks I go.
I'm not disappearing, though I may be on here less often. I am going to continue to eat properly and exercise and be really healthy and follow all of you till I can come back properly next year
