Hi ladies

Just a quick note to say that, unfortunately, i wont be ttc for at least the next month/two months.

went to the nurse today to sort out my vaccinations for my honeymoon in june and i found out that i haven't had my mmr second jab nor my childhood diptheria tetanus and polio boosters and due to the fact that the mmr is a live vaccine its imperative that we dont ttc for at least a month or two once ive had the injection.

i know its only a slight set back but ive been off the pill now for almost three months, and now i have to start taking it again (period due today or tomoro).

my only slight glimmer of hope is that maybe i am pregnant now as af hasnt reared its ugly head yet (but doubtful as i did a clear blue digital this morning- bfn). if i am pregnant then i wont be given the mmr and will just have to hope that i dont contract rubella during pregnancy.

sorry if it seems im rambling and i know this set back is nothing compared to what others have experienced, im just annoyed at myself that i didnt sort out my immunisations earlier.

i watched marley & me tonight and i had tears in my eyes when jenifer aniston brought her baby son home for the first time.
:cry:

Oh you poor thing! Like you say it's best to get your immunisations sorted out and at least it's only stopping you trying for a month or so.

Take care of yourself and we'll be here when you return xx

I'm sorry hon, what a pain. Is there any chance you don't take the pill and use other protection so you dont' have to go through the hassle of coming off the pill again?
It is a setback I know but for the health of you and your lo it's imperative.
Lots of luck and see you back here soon chick. You may want to take this time to carry on charting cycles/ovulation so you have a good idea of your body but obviously you can only do this off the pill.xxxx

Thanks girls. EmmaH- my nurse was adamant that i go back on the pill- she didnt even suggest other types of contraception, i guess the risk is just too great where the mmr is concerned.

i hope that the pill quickly leaves my system (like it did last time i came off it) and i can ov asap.

Thanks for your kind words and i hope to see u all soon xx
