I'll post first!
I'll have to do some persies from memory as I can't go back to old thread;
Crafty- I know, I can't believe how freaked I was without BB, it was because i was hanging around the house with not much to do, then I started thinking- what if it never comes back and we never get to speak to each other ever again!!! Unbearable! Sorry you feel depressed, (no wonder without any BB to read) and hope you feel beter soon x
Ferals- CVS sounded like a nightmare, you are very brave to bear it all. I just saw inthe other thread you are having to wait longer for your results- bummer, I have my fingers crosssed for you and your bubby, hope the torture is over soon xx
Hi to Damprye, Thopes, Possum, Alice, Mildez, Porsche, Sunbeam, who else? I am having a full mental blank here, hi to you anyway.
AFM- was going to report a 'nothing happening here' TWW but when I went to the toilet this afternoon there was some spotting. Now my immediate thought was 'not bloody AF again' then I got a thrill thinking it could be implantation but as the day has gone on I still have a small amount of brown/old blood ( very small amount) which is very reminiscent of my spotting before AF. And realistically , with all the drugs etc i have been on it wouldn't surprise me if it was preAF spotting. I seriously have no confidence in my bodydoing anything right anymore, I wish so much it was implantationcos I know we BD'd at all the right times, why can't anything work?????
All I can wish for now is if it is AF, she needs to come and get herself over with os I am closer to my next cycle, if I have spotting for a week before AF I am seriously going to go ballistic.
Sorry its all about me, but DH is still away so I can't take it out on him I'm also feeling bad bout myself as I downloaded heaps of photos onto facebook from all our travels last year ( I am slack i know) and I don't think I realised how much weight I put on last year ( at least I had the excuse of being pregnant in a few shots, only 7 wks but anyway- hehe) I really need to lose 4-5kgs but even 2-3 would be ok. I hope this shock will be good to get me on track
Saffy - i am so sneaky!!
oh love af already? surely not... hmmm tricky one! WTF is going on with these crazy bodies of ours!?! IM hoping its implant bleed and if its not... well that witch better hurry up so you can start round II! I hear ya about the 5kg!! I have a hot muffin top going these days! NOt!! Im not overweight but i can certainly feel the few extra im carrying and i cant get the mojo to do anything about it... i just keep thinkin - ah well ill be UTD soon! - HA!!! What am i thinking?! xx
Anyway im off to bed, have my scan at 8.15am then a IVF councelling appt just incase we get converted!!
oh thank god! I thought I'd never find our thread again!! None of the links were working, it's not even listed in the forums, I got forwarded to some weird place, I was starting to panic. I can't loose you all now, no way!
Been HANGING to hear from HappyBaby - how are you? We never heard about your scan - did it go OK??????
And Ferrals - WOOHOO!! sorry it was so bloody painful, you poor thing - ouch! Sounds like you've got a good and strong bub there Ferrals but I know until all the results are in you'll be worried so hope you don't have to wait too much longer and can't wait to find out what you are having! Such good news!!!! you must have gone nuts not being able to post x
Saffy, implantation, implantation, implantation (I'm sending you lots of implantation vibes) I know it's hard not to 'cause I've looked at photos of myself in January and feel the same way but try not to give yourself a hard time about your weight the important thing is to feel well and if loosing some weight will help you feel well then that's good but don't punish yourself.
T-hopes, all those follies girl, and on such a tiny tiny dose! I hope they can convert your cycle to IVF and get on with things for you - sounds very positive lovely and might be all you need to get your bub. Fingers crossed x
Crafty, for feeling down, I'm always hopeful we'll hear good news from you and really believe it will happen, just hope it's not much longer as you've been through too many sad months, it's just not fair. One more for you please, and soon. x
Sunbeam, did I miss a post from you? Are you jabbing too?
Mildez, Sevie (what happened to Sevie?) Damprye (hope you caught your egg), MatthewsMum are you OK are you starting another cycle soon? Who have I missed? Sorry for missing anyone.
AFM well AF has come and is leaving - pretty uneventful really (not complaining though!) and first BT was today. Nurses said this afternoon we are right to go so starting FSH injections tomorrow. Woohoo! Day 1 tomorrow, at long long last. this cycle works for us!
Alice-nuts is not the word i was beside myself with panic i even cried i blamed hubby cause he wiped our computer the other week and we had to pay $215 to get all our photos retrieved poor darling was blaming himself to we even rang bigpond and blasted them lol but i calmed down and finally got on to update you all.
Great to here injections are starting i am excited for you and will be watching very closely how it all goes.
T-hopes-hope the scan goes well and i am hearing ya on the weight i was 62kg before the ivf now i am 65kg not overweight but the extra around the belly (muffin top) makes me uncomfortable i havnt put on any since my BFP but i have never been this heavy at the beginning of any of my pregnancies so i worried how much i will have to lose at the end i am hoping i only put on about 10kgs that is my usual weight gain but i am not exercising nearly as much as i use to.
Saffy-hope it's implantation spotting and not AF.
And i was looking at my skinny photos the other day and got upset the 3kgs came on after losing Abbi and doing the ivf and i am not tall so it is very noticable i have a muffin top and all my clothes look like they are painted on (not a pretty sight).
Sunbeam-how are you i have been thinking about you.
AFM-hoping the geneticist calls today with the sex of our bub if not will definately be tomorrow i hate the waiting and the SLO results wont be in until next friday at the earliest i was told the lab in South Australia is back logged so there is delays WTF i have a time limit that i can have a normal termiation if i have to 14 weeks is the cut off i will be 13 weeks 2 days next friday so if the results are not in they are cutting a very fine line.
Saffy- I know how hyou feel with AF starting. I was trying to be so optimistic this month as we DTD basically all month and everytime that O was possible there bas extra BDing. I hope yours is just implantation bleeding. I wish that mine was to but according to my LP.... I am spot on for timing I hate having a 9 day LP at longest GRR
oh god Ferrals, it must be so hard to have to even think about the possibility of a termination. I hope you NEVER EVER EVER have to go through that again. You are an amazing strong woman, you know that? You deserve a happy and healthy bub with your DH and I hope this bub is the one. Please no SLO for this bub please. Crossing everything that it will be fine.
Still having trouble with this thread - it doesn't come up in the forum menu anymore and my email notifications aren't working either so I guess it's going to take some time for things to settle down. I know they must be doing everything they can for this to work but I really did feel a loss when I couldn't come on. I don't think I could do this cycle without you all now I've been part of this little community thanks everyone.
Well had a roaring fight with DH this morning who decided it was time to leave just as I was about to do my first injection. Sigh. Good start! We've made up by text so it's all OK. Forget how much this takes out of you. IVF is certainly not for the faint hearted! I'm really tired from yesterday - it is hard getting to the city for early bt (have to leave home at 5am) and then a long day and having to train it home with all the drugs etc. DH needed the car for a training day of all the days so did the whole thing on my own (he usually comes to every appointment with me) so was feeling a bit teary and tired when I woke up this morning and before I knew it we were yelling (well, I was yelling). Oh well, think I'll have me a quiet day and have another go at making a cake.
Damprye, we posted at the same time. Sorry AF is showing her ugly head again. From the little bit I know, 9 days LP would be unusual. I think they say to count back 14-16 days from your period and that's when you would 'o'. I know you've found the temping hard - do the OPKs work for you at all? I really have very little experience of natural conception (sadly) but I remember it all being very confusing when I first had to chart and I don't think I really got a handle on it until I started seeing this TCM practitioner. Good luck with for next month. Hopefully you won't have to wait too much longer x
Alice- The first month I used OPKs I only had a 3day LP
My cycles have been very short since my last m/c. The lil one made it to 7w1d, afterwards I had a 6week cycle and now it is roughly every 3weeks.
Sorry to hear about troubles with your hubby. It can happen at the most inappropriate times. Glad to hear that yous have made up though
Alice- I got onto BB on facebook on Tuesday so found out what was going on and some people's servers are taking longer than others to get back to normal, yours must be one of them because mine has been ok since yesterday ( just missing the last 2 wks posts but they are gone for good apparently). I was in a state too, and was imagining what Ferals was going through after her scan! We are all addicted!!
What a morning for you- its so typical about the car etc, but sounds like you did a good job by yourself, can't believe you have to get up at 5am too- foul. for this cycle, you can do it. Baking cakes is relaxing, try not to eat the whole thing when it comes out of the oven lol- that just-baked cake smell, i'm drooling thinking of it!!!
THopes- for your scan, I'm sure it will be great whichever way you go! Actually you have probably already had it- let us know the good results xx
Ferals- I'm quite tall but believe me its still annoying being up a few kgs, especially when they are around the middle, it makes clothes so uncomfortable. Last time I got on the scales I was 75kg but have been avoiding weighing myself for ages as I don't want to see the truth lol. your results come soon, I have a feeling they will be perfect, xxx
Damprye-sorry you are in the same boat as me- its depressing and i think my hormones are all over hte place too as I am teary, and struggling to feel positive.
Matthewsmum- how are you??
AFM- still minor spotting so completely sure its not implantation - I have had implantation bleeds before and they were different. BLAH. Need to get over my dismay, at least DH is home again, I missed him. He is still sick poor love and has to go to work as its really busy.
Hope everyone has a nice day, now we are back in BB land, I'm surprised the site hasn't blown up!
Hmmmm, might go and stalk Dory and see if she's in labour yet...
I'm also feeling bad bout myself as I downloaded heaps of photos onto facebook from all our travels last year ( I am slack i know) and I don't think I realised how much weight I put on last year ( at least I had the excuse of being pregnant in a few shots, only 7 wks but anyway- hehe) I really need to lose 4-5kgs but even 2-3 would be ok.
