Hi all, I did a really long post with personals, and my battery went flat on the laptop and I don't have time to do it again today, sorry, I'll do it when I have more time.
I hope you're all well. Good luck to all of you wherever you are in your cycle and have a great Christmas and bring on the BFP for the New Year!
AFM - Currently on the 2ww going slowly crazy. BT next Saturday, it seems like so long away. I had 2 embies transferred at Blastocyst and thought another 5 hopefully to be put away in the freezer, but I got news only 1 Blastocyst managed to be frozen. I thought there would be more, but I guess 3 eggs that survived to Blastocyst out of 7 is not too bad I guess.
Wow it seems like such a sad time in here at the moment
BEC- im sorry darl i was really hoping for you, i think of u as my mentor and wanted to see you succeed, i truly believe this time next year we will ALL be pregnant.
JBM- im so sorry hun, i just try to think of it as being "gods will" tough I know but its all I can think of when im down, that its all out of my hands and that you can only do so much an the rest is up to him.
AFM- well I'm booking my first FS appointment tomorrow YAY! im sooo happy, i think i will be waiting a few months but its going to be worth it! ALSO i got a positive OPK AND a positive reading on my fertility monitor yesterday so i am ovulating today on CD13 and did the dance this morning and on the night of CD 11 and will be again tomorrow morning haha! so if this doesnt work i dont know what will, its the first time I have ever pin pointed my ovulation and im feeling really good and I truly believe I will get a new year surprise! I have to think positive! also my friend had an abortion last week at 12 weeks and I didnt know what to say to her, I felt so ripped off, she didnt even tell the father and was drinking at about 8 weeks onward i felt so sad for that poor little baby, but it is out of my hands. good luck girls I will talk to you all again tomorrow!

CD 13 of 28
This is my first post, so please ladies be gentle!
I'm 29 from Perth and I've been on other forums before but this is my first time on BellyBelly after a recommendation from a friend.
We've been ttc #1 for 9 years. In that time we've had 3 miscarriages, the first being in 02, the second in July 07 and the most recent in Feb this year.
We have unexplained infertility (though am raiding my Dr's next year for more tests just to be sure). We said from the word go that we would not explore fertility treatments if we couldn't fall pregnant naturally. If we couldn't have children naturally then there was a reason for that and honestly after seeing other friends and family go through nearly every type of treatment available, I swore I'd never do it. As hard as it is to say, I believe some of us aren't meant to be Mum's but I won't resign myself to that without one more fight, one more year of ttc.
9 years of ttc has taken it's toll and after my last miscarriage, I wanted nothing to do with babies or baby making or even the possibility of getting pregnant. We decided that we obviously weren't meant to have children and so gave up the ttc dream earlier this year BUT I just can't walk away without one more fight, so I'm giving it 12 months at the most and then if nothing, then it's time to say, parents, we will not be.
I hope to get to know you all well and lend support to you all on your ttc pathways, IMO long term ttcer's should stick together!
Hi ladies i hope you dont mind me joining in here, ive been with BB for a while and usually frequent the LTTTCAC thread but it is so busy in here thought i would pop my head back in - i lurk all the time. lol

hi all. thanks for you r replies. af has started but i did another test just in case and BFN agan. i really don't know what to feel at the moment. will chat to you all soon.
It has been about a month since my last post. So much has happened since then! I wouldn't know where to start with the replies, so forgive me for giving one reply to you all. I can see many of you have suffered losses recently, and trying to keep it all together just before Christmas must be a difficult task It can't be easy for you and although I don't say hi much, I think of all of you all the time. I hope Christmas with family and friends gives you all renewed energy and positiveness, to help carry you through to the next stage of your cycles. It's important that you give yourself and DPs a break. You both deserve it.
For those of you going through the TWW,
I know there is also quite a few new comers this month also . I hope you get as much out of this group of gals as I have.
AFM: I have kept myself busy with other things whilst waiting for Jan to arrive. Having a two month break from treatment has done DH and I the world of good We are just looking forward to Christmas and will worry about Jan when it comes.
I may not speak to you all before Christmas so MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! : D
hello to all the new ones! or returning ones! there are quite a few!

1st FS appointment 2009!
It has been awhile since I have posted in here also, but just wanted to let you all know that I have been lurking and sending you all my love and the biggest of wishes for whatever stage you are at.
JBM - I am so sorry to hear of your BFN. I hope that you are doing OK, sending you the warmest of hugs, take care sweetie.
Bec - I am so sorry that this wasn't your time either hun, thinking of you.
21 - so glad that you are excited about seeing the FS, I know the wait is one of the hardest things isn't it, but two weeks will go by so fast, especially with Christmas and New Year in between.
Bodhi - Welcome to BB and thankyou for sharing your story. You have had such a long journey and yet you still have hope - that in itself is inspirational.
Good luck to everyone, may 2009 be our year...... each and everyone of us.
Take care all - sending you all a big Christmas hug.
got af full force today and i am very emotional at the moment. i hope i can be ok on xmas day as only my sister knows about this and everyone else might just say " whats wrong with her?' .
trying to figure out our next step. do know i'm taking a break until feb as i think i just need it after 3 negaitive results last 3 months.
sorry no personals as just not up to it yet. hugs to you all.
JBM - just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you. A break might do you good. I am refreshed and ready to go again after our break. If there is anything we can do to support you just let us know.
AFM - have appointment with clinic nurse tomorrow to get everything we need to get started again. Just have to wait for Af to arrive. Bring it on.
Hello lovely girls, I have been MIA back lurking a bit. Nothing happening with me really, having a month's break. I'm flying to Melbourne today to spend Christmas with my family, poor DH has to work.
I'm waiting for next AF (early Jan) to start a flare cycle on double the dose of Puregon! Hope it works.
Merry Christmas to you all, here's to a happy and successful 2009 with lots of babies!
JBM- im sorry hun, xmas is a tough time especially when u spend it with AF, mines prob going to rear with a bang for 2009!
neptune- hi there! long time no see! hope u are doing ok
its not too busy in here at the moment, everyone must be on holidays and busy and such.
AFM- well im now officially in the 2WW for like the billionth time, it seems to get easier, i mean the hope fades eventually, sad i know, but im sure you all know what i mean, instead of waiting to see a BFP its more 2 weeks of mental preperation for a BFN. I got my peak fertility on CD 12 and that was confirmed with an OPK so i ovulated day 13 or 14 at the latest, im now on low fertility according to my monitor and my opk is now a negative, does anyone else use the fertility monitor here? i feel good about this month as i finally pinpointed my ovulation and im NOT going to test until or if AF is late! GOD HELP ME! also im counting down to JAN 12 to make my first FS appointment as clinic is closed!

JAN 12 COME ON!!!!
do you remember when i mentioned i thought DP would be getting me a "ring" WELL! i was cleaning through our draws and folding everything neatly when i felt something hard in DP's pants pocket, i though maybe he secretly has taken up smoking WELL it was a ring box from wallace bishop!!! i put it back the way i found it i didnt look in it and I rang my mum to ask what to do and she said pretend u never saw it, i started crying i dont like to keep things from DP but it will be sooo hard, im also very nervous, my mum said he was supposed to ask me about a week ago but he got too nervous i would so no!!! I feel soooo bad i dont want to break his heart, mum said tell him in a few years time and it will just be a laugh, well if he would wash his own damn clothes maybe i wouldnt find things! he is soooo dumb! has this happened to anyone else, finding the ring before the proposal! AHHHHH i dont know what to do!!! it also broke my heart as i wish i could have given him a BFP this christmas in return, it hurts so bad
WELL IM ENGAGED!!! DP asked me at sunset on the beach today! how was that for timing! its so lovely its white gold covered in diamonds and fits like a charm! im so excited i couldnt stop crying! at least one good thing happened this year! no wedding date yet, all we need is a BFP for new years eve! i feel good about this month!
