Ps.... N2l just noticed your living in district 12... Love it :)
My DD thinks she is Catniss :lol::
I doubt it. Maybe one day we'll achieve enough emotional distance from it to walk away completely, but it won't be any time soon. I'd expect to hit menopause first... Lol, and maybe I wouldn't even give up then? (I'm thinking of going on the waiting list for our clinic's donor egg program - estimated 6-year wait - in case we can actually afford it later and want to do it.):
I'm happy with where I am now though - I don't have that desperate 100% emotional investment where it occupies every waking thought, but we're doing as much as we can to try to increase our odds so that we (hopefully) won't have regrets later if it never happens. I can live my life this way for a while and not feel like everything is on hold like it was for so long before... I can better cope with the BFNs this way too...
Lol... I used to put myself into the main character of the story too.... I am Hermione, Anne of green gables, Dorothy and all the rest... (Usually the pretty princesses....) that's why I really would love a girl baby .... Even though I know I should just want one whatever it is :)
but I digress.... :lol:
Juniper that sounds really healthy... ;)
I guess I feel desperate sometimes, cause I worry I will never be a mum, and being a step mum just isn't cutting it for me... :(
myturn, that makes sense. I couldn't have done this when TTC#1. That was years of the obsessive 100% investment. I just can't go through that again though and I can't risk losing years doing that and missing out on DD in the process; I've already missed too much in the 12 months that I struggled after the d&c. The guilt and regret, on top of the disappointment, is too much. :(
Oh, and, while we'd be thrilled with a healthy baby of either gender, we definitely want another girl. ;) Nothing wrong with having a preference.
You have to think about DD cause she is the most important thing right now xxox
being grown up, and knowing that's the right thing doesn't make it easier sometimes, and other times... It makes it a hole heap easier.
You know, if I don't have a baby. Ill be okay. I know I will. I will still be happy, and have a full and rich life. I just hope I don't miss out on life in the meantime.
I think the CoQ10 has given me grey hairs........you know, DOWN THERE :o. What else could it be :dunno: Either that or the Universe is trying really really hard to tell me something :(
Oh miss b!!! :lol: I've got grey hairs in my eyebrows!!!
Bahahahah I wish I had them there myturn, I was absolutely horrified! Of all places! Seriously, do they have to show up there? Doesn't make me feel as young as I do at heart that's for sure! lol
Time to start getting a Brazilian?
LOL!!!!
I can't bring myself to have if all off :ROFL: Even when they leave a thin landing strip, I can still see the buggers!!
Or just keep the lights off ;):
Eta - coq10 hasn't done that to me :lol:
At least it's only you and hubby who can see them....
Having explored hairless myself (with the shaving option) for the first time last week.... Don't know why, just a spur of the moment idea, that I suspected I would regret, and did it anyway.... I am not convinced hairless is right on a fully grown woman....
Lol!:
I've never done more than a bikini wax. The itching was too much! Bleh!
Haha n2l, stupid me showed them to my DP and now he picks on me about it. So light off wouldn't work now. Does it mean it will go all white eventually?? OMG. I think I better start taking it all off :shakehead:.:
Myturn :ROFL: that's how I feel!!
Juniper, yes, the itching isn't very nice but it doesn't last that long :)
Besides... There is hair in locations that wax should NOT be seen!!!!
ooooh I just thought, Just For Men maybe????
The way I look at it I've had enough people down at my bits over the past couple of years, I don't need a chick with a wax pot having a go at me too ;)
:rofl: oh my god... Imagine what it would be like it it went wrong.... Bright orange or something!!! :rofl::
Yes yes yes... Dignity is gone already, so let me keep my hair....:
I really don't know what I was thinking.... Just tidying myself up last week and thought... Hmmm... I'm a bit uneven from my last hair cut, how shout I go all the way for a change.... DH didn't even seem that into it.... Commented on his surprise and just went about his usual business :lol:
Lol n2l, I agree. We have enough spectators down there already!
Haha myturn, it would be better if it all just all fell out, pernamently!!! Then I could just get it tattooed on sans the grey, lol. How funny that your DH wasn't fussed!! Mine gets a bit excited ;)
Thanks for the laugh girls, I'm off to bed. Chat soon :)
Hi beautiful ladies, welcome to the newbies and I hope your time in here is short.
I just had to pop in and say you all just cracked me up with all your waxing and Brazilian talk. Given I used to be a beauty therapist I of course am the queen of waxing in my house....I have even managed to have dh go through the pain of a Brazilian on him, hurts like crap but loves it now and complains when I haven't done it. I personally love the clean feeling of it but it's very much each to there own :-). Maybe when I get old and wrinkly down there I might change my time lol.
I feel for you all that are struggling with still being in here and I have to agree I don't think you ever can really give up and accept it I think you start to learn to live life realizing this may be the way life is forever and that you need to find a way to enjoy that life, which is very hard I must say as I am trying to deal with it atm and of course there is a new round of people in my life getting pregnant again :-(
Hope you all enjoy the rest of your week xo

Hi juniper can you please put me in the "waiting for transfer" list? Had my first ever EPU yesterday, 12 little eggies that's DH keeps referring to us "his 12 babies" lol. Just awaiting my fertilization phone call today me to let me know what time transfer is tomorrow Xx
Just for my phone call, I have 8 embryos!!!! ::leap: I've never so excited about something in my life lol.
Transfer tomorrow, 5 in the freezer and they want to keep 2 out to grow to 5 day.... Om off to research what that means :)
Great news Ceejelz - Congrats!! :)
Fantastic ceejelz!!! Well done
That's fantastic ceejelz well done xx
Afm had my trigger yesterday having Acupunture now then off to my first iui then another iui tomorrow
Ceejelz, great news!
Rai, FX for you!
Hi lovely ladies i need to ask a question. I got my trigger yesterday and will be O'ing tonight i had an iui today and am having another tomorrow. There telling me i should
start perseries on saturday which just does not make sense to me should'nt i start them in the morning as i will be O'ing tonight and tomorrow when i do my iui?? Also
going out to a seafood resturant for lunch tomorrow can i eat oyster kilpatrick (not sure if i spelt that right)?
Rai, you can eat whatever you like. I find it causes me less anxiety if I avoid certain foods, but there's no actual reason you need to avoid anything.
It sounds right to me to start the pessaries on Saturday. They're not usually critical so early in the LP. It's common to start them as late as 3dpo. In fact, for IVF, my clinic doesn't give you any progesterone until you do your transfer, so you can start as late as 5dpo!
Yep rai I started them at 6dpo with transfer on 5dpo. FX
But check with them to put your mind at ease x
Quick question...after having a 5dt when is it likely that the embryo will implant?
Kel, implantation still typically occurs between 7-10dpo.
Hi gang
Long time no talk (:
Been MIA as DF and I agreed to take a break from TTC over the summer. TTC however has not been far from my mind of course, it's hard not to think about it even when on a break.
Have had a great summer, really let my hair down, lots of parties and bbq's, naughty drinking and smoking nights out ):
Getting back on track now though, no drinking no smoking and loads of healthy eating as we prepare for our first cycle of IUI/AIH in a few weeks time.
Refresher.... Have done 2 cycles of OI with no success however my body responded very well to the drugs and DF swimmers are mobile, normal and fast (:
No idea where I am in my super long cycle ATM but obviously will let you know for the list when AF shows up again. She is showing up every 6 weeks or so even without drugs however don't think I have ovulated ... No evidence or OPK's done, it's just my negative assumption about my stupid body. Meanwhile I have lots of stalking to do and I'll be in touch soon.
Love Jodie xx

Just got home from my transfer, 8 embies and the most perfect one has been out in. Out of the 12 eggs 2 were very immature, 2 basically died because DH strong sperm "attacked" 2 of them And they ended up with two sperm in each egg, so four are going in the freezer one got implanted and 2 will be grown until Monday then hopefully frozen, and one isn't expected to survive as it has a lot of fragmentation.
Sooooo I'm currently pregnant until proven otherwise.... Blood test on the 22nd :)
Welcome back Curtsygirl.
I love your positivity Ceejelz. Fx for you this one sticks. Good to hear you've got a few in the freezer too.
Amazingly I got af yesterday so can you please change me to cd2 juniper. Maybe that's why I have been so moody & crazy.
Just need to wait till next af now to start another natural fet cycle.
Can I please ask you girls. Have many of you felt insecure in your relationships after failed ivf attempts? If so what have you done about it?
Thanks
Ceejelz - all the best for a fast tww, will cross my fingers for a BFP for you :) Are you doing pessaries or pregnyl or anything?
Juniper - Can you please move me over to the tww? I had my 5dt this morning, for some reason I am not at hopeful as the other times :( so feeling about down about it, but I guess you never know...
Hope everyone is ok xx
