Saffy great news I have no idea about the prog either but you have time to pick that up right ? FX all goes well for you and you get to keep this bub !
Sunbeam fantastic news on your eggs you always manage to get a lot hey lucky you lets pray you can get your BFP real soon and a healthy 9 mnths ahead !
Ladies I need some advice not sure what to do, I am day 39 I think or well 10 days since I had some brown spotting and well not done a poas since sunday and it was a BFN, well still no nothing no cramping no headaches no grumpy moods either which is so unlike me lol ! anyhow my bra just felt tight today and I have been having twinges in my bbs but you know how it is about going out to buy more tests ! I ran out now you see and begrudge spending on them if all I get is a BFN ! so what would you do if you were me am I day 39 or day 10 ???? the brown discharge really was not much at all only when I wiped ( a bit like when I first started to misscarry ) so do I just sit tight or go to the DRS and get laughed at as I am 45.5 yrs old and sometimes ladies my age miss a period right !
-
Crafty I would be buying some more tests and giving them another go!
-
Saffy: I have everything crossed for you. BHCG sounds good for such an early pg. Am i right? I'm sending you sticky sticky vibes. THanks for the well wishes hun. I think part of my 'grumpy cow' thing is the disappointment but there's a good deal of grumpy cow hormones involved too i'm thinking! Wish they were pg hormones not PMS!
T-hopes: Miss seeing your posts in this thread. Nice to see you pop in. Hope things have settled down (i've been checking in on you in the other thread a bit). HOpe it's all good now.
Crafty: Yeah, IKWYM about feeling bummed about spending money on POAS which give you the wrong answer! You might be right and you might be day 10: if you were day 36 on Sunday when you did the last POAS then a pg would probably show up on a POAS by then i'm thinking. But i reckon do whatever it takes to help you feel you know what's going on. What about some internet 'cheapy' POAS? (I've never bought them but i know others have). It might be a good compromise on feeling ok about spending money on a few more POAS tests?
India's mum: Where in the cycle are you? TWW?
Hi Sunbeam: I'm glad EPU worked out for you on a more convenient day. I'm sure the procedure is enough drama without having stress relating to clearing your schedule. Also great that you'll have two family members to pamper you a bit.
Toomanyshoes: hope the headaches are easing off.
Hi Porsche: Great to see you drop in. Thanks for the well wishes. Hope things are good for you at the mo.
Alice: THanks for the feedback about varying cycle length. Hope you get some answers on yours.
LUna: HOw are things with you? Yeah, i was totally convinced i was pg. Still very puzzled about my 9 days or so of vivid dreams. I must have a lot on my mind!
AFM: I can't give up a teensy hope that the POAS was wrong and i'd just had too many fluids for the BFP to show up last night. (I need AF to come so that i can face reality and move on!)

:p CONGRATULATIONS SAFFY!! :p That's the best best best news - well done!! I hope you have a happy and healthy pregnancy and looking forward to hearing your updates :bellyrubs: xxooxxoo :cheer: :bluecheer:
-
Saffy - I do not know why they told you your progesterone is low, I think anything over 20 is fine, and yours was 36. I only had it checked in my last pregancy, and it was low, but it was 14. Your number looks great to me. Are you having a repeat BT soon? I'm keeping my fingers crossed, spotting is pretty common, but makes you freak out nonetheless.
Possum - maybe you really DID have too much liquid, I am still hoping....
Crafty - can you just get a blood test? The uncertainty must be killing you. Who cares what they think, and believe me, they have probably seen everything anyway. You cannot be the only 45 year old that is trying to get pregnant. Hey, I am almost there myself.
Hi to everybody else, I am still following you all.
I am just waiting for my ectopic to resolve. In 2 weeks it dropped from >2000 to 470, today I got another test and I am really hoping it is below 5. I thought I am handling this loss pretty well, but yesterday at work my coworker told me that this guy we work with had a stillborn baby. And then he said "you are a mother now, blah blah blah..." I am writing "blah blah blah" because I honestly did not hear what else he said, but I know he was talking. It just literally took my breath away and I was shaking. I had to work very hard not to cry. I never expected such a strong reaction and I am not a public crier, so it totally took me by surprise. Now I am thinking, I have not let myself have a good cry over this loss yet, and there are probably bottled up feelings and they just tried to come out, so I think I need to cry until I get a headache. So this is my plan for tonight :-(
-
Saffy, sounds like your prog level is great so fingers crossed it all goes well from here! So happy for you lovely xx
oh Luna big hugs to you :hug: I think this loss has gone on for so long for you waiting for it to pass, it's bound to be a difficult and it sounds like you've handled it so well, I think a good cry is in order but I am sorry you are so sad. Thinking of you xx
MatthewsMum, how are you going? That was a lovely thing to do for Matthew's anniversary. Hope you are feeling a bit brighter soon xx
Sunbeam, good luck for your EPU, sounds like you are going into this feeling good in yourself (despite your back). I hope everything goes your way and DD produces the goods. Wishing you a nice surprise for Christmas.
Possum, Toomanyshoes, Crafty, India'sMum, Damprye - big hugs and hello to you all. Wishing you all a BFP very soon.
Porsche, Mildez, Ferrals, T-hopes, missing you all and hoping everything is well with you.
MurrayCod, KitFaerie, Audax - you too xx
I'm going to be signing off for the year. Today is my 42 birthday...and still no baby :( But I'm trying not to think about it too much so I'm going to have a break now and will be back next year to try again. Thanks everyone for all the love and support you've shown me, I would not have got through this year without it. You are the most amazing, beautiful, strong, brave, fantastic women and I hope you all get to realise your BB dreams soon. I will pop in when I can, take care and lots of love XXOOO
PS sorry for missing anyone
-
Alice - Happy Birthday! Enjoy your well deserved break, hope you have a fantastic Christmas and new years. :hug:
-
Saffy - Brilliant level!! Good girl, so thrilled for you!! I dont know much about the prog level but stay on that crinone and im sure it will rise nicely! Wishing you a very happy & healthy 9ths!!!! :) xxxxx
possum - thanks love, doing well now, yes had a big scare last week with the little bleed but bubby is fine, had two scans since and growing perfectly! My ob said its quite common and it stopped within 24hrs. DH got me a doppler and its fantastic, i use it every morning and it makes me feel so much better! Im 10wk 2 days so 18 sleeps till my big scan, still scares the heck outta me cause thats when we lost our last angel but i feel confident we will be ok this time! I hope anyway!
crafty - i would go to the docs and ask them to do a BT, they would never laugh at you! There is a lady in the other forum - 46y/old and just got preg! You can do this! Dont give up on yourself, i havent!!!! xx
Love to all you beautiful women xx
-
Alice - HAPPY BIRTHDAY my love! Im praying that your dream comes true soon, dont give up ! xx
-
Hi Lovelies,
Saffy - :clap: Whoo so glad the bt was great, I think the prog. number sounds okay I'm sure they will keep an eye on it. I wonder if it's one ot two in there :p can't wait to find out :stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesgirl:
Alice - :happybirthday: We will miss you heaps, I hope the break does you good I know it has helped me in the past. Will be looking out for you in the New Year and hopefully a whole new start.
Crafty - No idea what's going on! Personally I could not help but keep testing but we all do understand the disappiontment that can come from seeing a BFN.:hug:
Luna - A big cry sounds like it is needed :comfort: I find that it is important to say goodbye properly when the time feels right and you feel strong enough but it is sooo hard all the same.
T-Hopes - So glad to hear that things are moving along so well for you. Can't wait to hear more news after your scan.
Possum - I am still crossing everything that you have a sneaky BFP coming. :crossfingers:
-
:happybirthday: Alice have a great day and by the way 42 is still young !!! :D
T-hopes great news on your scan FX all is well next few weeks I know how hard it can be coming upto the dreaded 12 wks !
Sunbeam not long now till your egg pick ! got 3 tests in my drawer now but too chicken to do them !!! lol
Luna cry babe it will do you good sometimes if I started to write down my story it helped get it off my chest and made me cry and cry and cry !!!!
Possum FX its just too early for your BFP to show !
saffy hope your still doing well and do you get another BT soon ?
afm well just going along passing the time and wait and wait to see what happens !!!:)
-
:birthday2: Happy Birthday Alice! I hope you have something nice planned to celebrate. We will miss you while you are away. Take care, enjoy the break and see you in the new year refreshed.
Luna: It's really rough when you lose your baby but also need to wait for HCG to drop. Understandable that you are feeling like you need a good cry.
T-Hopes: I can't wait to hear good news from your 12wk scan. Great that you can hear the HB with your doppler to reassure yourself.
Saffy, toomanyshoes, sunbeam, crafty: hi again!
I seem to be haunting this thread ATM: going nuts in the TWW. Still no AF but due tomorrow. I keep running to the loo thinking i can feel it starting and...nothing. I'm so impatient when it's not really due before tomorrow anyway! If AF doesn't show up by Sunday (CD31) i might POAS again. If there's no BFP it's certainly been a very mean cycle: i've had really uncomfortable cramping the last 3 days. Way worse than usual. And i'm still dreaming. Sore boobs. What a palaver if it's only silly old AF coming!
-
Hi girls- have had a broken computer- just fixed it now- PHEW!!
ALice- hope I haven't missed you and need to wish you :confetti: HAPPY BIRTHDAY:confetti: and bon voyage for when (if?) you go on your trip- we will miss you so much- enjoy your break and have a beautiful christmas lovely :heartbeat:
Possummagic-oooohhhh, might be brewing up a sneaky bfp- I sooo hope so xx
Crafty- still no AF?!!?? Might be worth holding off a bit longer ( using the reverse psycholgy of- as soon as you buy HPKs your AF will come- so don't buy them!!) Hope it was an implantation spotting!!
Sunbeam-good egg haul!!:dance: FX for Monday- you will do fine xx
THopes- hi mate! Nice to see you xx
Luna- thanks, yeah I went and found an old pathology slip and saw it was 20 as the lower level so I relaxed a bit after that, my friend in UK emailed me and said hers had been 9 at 5wk ( ended up m/c tho). Shame about that guy at work :hug: to you, hope you had a good cry- it always makes me feel better, I suppose it will just come out when you least expect it. Also, hope your levels are lowering quickly xx
Toomanyshoes- thanks for the stickyvibes- I need them!!
AFM- well, I would love to report everything is good but its not really, have had painful cramping constantly since Wed afternoon, spotting turned into bleeding yesterday, its still on and off/ light but its red. Not a full AF though. I'm feeling more resigned to the fact that I can't force it to stick and it either will fail or it won't , so I am just trying to 'go with the flow' pardon the pun. Am going back in for BT next wed but will go Monday if AF over weekend. Can't do anything but wait. Thanks so much for you lovely words and sticky vibes, it means a lot. :grouphug:
-
Saffy - still keeping everything crossed for you! Sticky sticky stick oi oi oi!
-
me too Saffy: stickiest of sticky vibes to you. I hope you are just one of those 'bleeders' who gets some break-through bleeding in an otherwise normal pg. FX for you (and toes too!)
-
Hi ladies
Saffy FX all will be well for you as you say nothing you can do to change the outcome ! but I do pray its a good outcome for you,
Possum FX AF stay away send her to me instead !!!!
AFM still no AF still BFN knew I should have saved my money !!!
-
Saffy - MurrayCod had constant cramping around this stage too and things worked out. I am praying for you and the bubs.
Possum - I am kind of in the two week wait. It's day 21 but we BD till Day 24 because I have been known to ovulate very late.
Crafty - I know you said a doctor won't help, but what about an acupuncturist who specialises in fertility treatments? They work with people taking clomid. It might increase your chances if you are going to try the Clomid again.
Alice - I will really miss you on here and I will be thinking about you. Happy birthday Sweetie. I don't think 42 is all that old.
-
*Sigh*...AF arrived last night. So CD1 again. I should have known that that pg test was accurate. Gosh that was a horrible TWW. I can't believe i have to do it again! I'm almost relieved it's the start of a fresh cycle though. I've got a few days off stressing about it and then we get to try again. It's the TWW that messes with my head. But i'm so sad that we won't have another baby in this house before late next year now. It feels like such a long time away.
Crafty sorry for BFN. Sux i know...
India's mum GL for TWW...
Hugs to everyone...
