AFM - well im 8DPIUI and have woken up with period pain and boobs are just as sore and massive! Its gotta be these pessaries! They are messing with my head! How can i have period pain already!? Did anyone else have many side affects with the pessaries?? I wish i could just sleep thru the next week!
Did anyone watch The Great Sperm Race last night? It was soo fascinating! Poor little sperm do it tuff! No wonder they cant find my egg! The vagina is like a battlefield! And the cervix!! Oh dont get me started on how mean the cervix is to the sperm!! It traps thems down these little grooves like the deadend of a maze!!!
T-hopes good job your DHs spermies had a helping hand this month then and got shown the way !!! Period type pains could be implantation feels like that sometimes when you first get pregnant so FX all is good and you get a BFP later on this week when are you testing ?
Alice I still have a fuzzy head but not as bad but I do have a runny tummy now so I guess thats what the problem was some kind of bug I think, Good luck with your egg pick tomorow after your excitement with your trigger phew what a releif for poor DH ! Thanks for beleiveing in me I hope I can get my BFP as your dream said I would ! and you get yours too then we can move over to the pg thread with T-hopes and sunbeam and all the other ladies in this TWW !!!! guess we just a bit in front of you but not that much !!!
Luna yay for enjoying your wine ! onwards and upwards for next month hope AF arrives soon for you ! sorry its a BFN it sucks when you see just one line but I am getting used to it now !!!
Damprye hope you can get some peace soon with your troubled mind I know how hard it is I have had my share of doubt and confussion the last year but in the end manage to sort myself out just give yourself some time !!!
Sunbeam any news on those embies yet when is transfer ?
Everyone I have missed hope your ok and have the strength to carry on along this long hard road, know you are not alone we are all here with you !!!
I agree with crafty T-Hopes. When is AF due? You get AF type pains when UTD. Remember me asking about mine? Although mine were different because they make you start yout TWW when you've had ET. So technically I started having AF pains when AF was "technically" due.
oo T-hopes, that sounds soo good! No, really! Cramping can be from the pessaries (and yes, it does mess with your head I can vouch for that!) but also wouldn't 8 days be just about the right time for implantation? Anyway, I had super strong AF cramps before I got my BFP but they started about three days before the test and got stronger and stronger to the point where I nearly didn't get the bt done. But if you don't have any bleeding that's a good sign. I can't believe we have to wait another week! We're here for you - go as nutty as you need to! xx
Thanks Crafty, I'm not going anywhere without you so we'd better get this thing happening soon, OK? Sorry for that bug, sounds nasty. Rest up as much as you can with little ones to look after
AFM feel like I'm going to burst! Can hardly sit down properly!! And sooo tired - it's hard work laying all these eggs, poor Sunbeam, how did you manage with 20!! Your ovaries must be the size of grapefruit! Hope you are drinking lots of water and resting and getting ready for tomorrow. Fingers crossed. Off to sleep now...zzzzz
crafty, porsche, alice - AF is due on Monday... Im not sure when im going to test! Id normally already have started lol! I think we will test Sunday so then i can just chill at home and cry my heart out b4 work on Monday if its a BFN! Im sure it will be!
I guess it would be around implantation time but who knows??! Its probably these damn pessaries and my stupid mind jerkin me around!!!! Owww i need mexican food!!!
Im already planning my next cycle! DH wants to do another IUI but i keep telling him its a BFW - Big Fat Waste!!!!!!!! Bring on IVF i say!!! Just gotta find the $6,500 for it!!!
Alice - rest up lovely!! big day tomorrow!! Cant wait to hear your results!!!
Mildez - hello!! hows bubby going? when is your scan? xx
Possum - It's good to see you back again. Thank goodness your cycle is back to normal. I know how like limbo it is to not know where the hell you are or what is going on because you don't feel you can proceed forward. Thanks for the story about your friend. It all sounds so very familiar. I go back to the FS on Thursday to find out if anything was causing the miscarriages but I don't feel they will find anything.
Saffy - Hurry up AF so we can get things moving.
Luna - I do remember you. I don't come across too many people with such similar circumstances so your story stuck in my mind. Funny about the wine, I think most of my positive BFP's have revealed themselves because I tested before I went to a function when I wanted to drink. With DD I tested on Christmas Day and got a faint line so at the family function I kept handing the champagne to my husband to drink for me. That was personally amusing as DH doesn't drink at all.
T-Hopes - I think this is sounding very promising. Fingers crossed for you sweetie.
Alice - I felt a twinge of pain when I read about your ovaries and how big they must be. Must be a bit like how guys cringe when they see another male hit in the balls.
AFM - I seem to be going to the loo a bit more and have a few odd twinges, though not quite an aching uterus. When I felt a bit sick this morning I got over excited and tested which of course showed a BFN. When I checked it's only Day 26 so that was a bit premature of me. I think I'm going to be hugely disappointed this month. Even though I lose babies before 12 weeks I get pregnant quickly so I am not really used to getting BFN's. Odd, isn't it?
Next to my computer is a pile of catalogues I need to throw out. For some reason I am struggling to get rid of the BabiesRus one that came in the mail last week. Before I went online I actually circled things I wanted for a baby that doesn't even exist. Money was quite tight when DD was born so I didn't get the chance to have all the nice things I wanted for her. Now we could afford to have a few luxuries but I am concerned I will never get the chance to do that. I didn't feel too down until I tested. I really shouldn't have but it's hard to resist when you have extra tests in the cupboard.
Hey I'm back, did an extra shift at work and find I have missed pages of posts- help! will try and catch up quickly.
Thanks for all your good thoughts guys, I am ok with my bfn but next time its a bfp or nothing!
SammyP- I have never bought any baby things, I know some people do, I don't feel comfortable with it. I hope you don't have to wait long until your next BFP! How long is your cycle normally?
THopes- I agree with the others!!!! Crack open that packet of HPTs or you will never get to use them all! I am SOOOO hopeful for you, the cramps are a great sign going by other people's experience. You might have to spend the $6500 on something else lol
ALice- I cannot believe how close you are! So exciting!!! I can definately relate to the smashed ampoules, have done it a few times at work, once when I was in a really stressful situation, the entire ampoule smashed to smithereens in my superhuman grip! It hurts cos the little bits of glass get in your fingers. Poor DH, sounds like you did a good job. Hope everything goes perfectly today and you get heaps of beautiful eggs xx
Crafty- hope you a feeling better soon!
Luna- I'm with you, now I've got a BFN i am heading staright to the wine bottle, I don't have to work tomorrow so will be indulging tonight, it has been a LONG time for me, I will be on the floor after one glass lol.
Possummagic- you have been through a lot, glad your body is cooperating and giving you a nice normal cycle!
Hi to Matthewsmum, Porsche, Mildez, Damprye, Intheslowlane
AFM- still no AF ( cow) but at least i can have a drink, I need one after work today, it was feral! Nice day at home tomorrow!
Saffy - I was so sure you were going to be BFP. Glad to hear you're positive(he he) about next month. Let's hope it's contageous.
SammyP - Don't feel down because of the BFN. You've done it before, you can do it again.
T-hopes, possum magic, Alice - so excited to be getting away. Camping may not be the Ritz, but it is a break. Just wish we weren't meeting our best friends (who are pregnant). Guess that makes me pretty horrible, but I am having trouble with the anger/resentment side of things at the moment. Hope a bit of honesty helps dissapate it.
Whoo hoo!! CD 4 for you today, its all happening!! Good luck for your u/s!!
and boobs are just as sore and massive! Its gotta be these pessaries! They are messing with my head! How can i have period pain already!? Did anyone else have many side affects with the pessaries?? I wish i could just sleep thru the next week!
