India's mum: Thanks hun. I'm ok at the moment. I was a bit worried for me too! But after a small bleed 6 days ago, no further bleeding (and I saw my OB wednesday when I got to see baby and a heartbeat!) IKWYM about feeling daunted coming up to that 'fertile window'. It's hard long term TTC. I hope that when it comes to it you find yourself in the mood.
Minniemouse: Going ok ATM. Injecting Clexane every day. Not my favourite moment of the day but it's pretty quick and then it's over. I'm seeing my OB again THursday for a check up so hopefully all will be looking good still. I hope clomid works for you. A friend of mine who had been TTC for 12mths had her tubes 'flushed' (non-technical term!) and fell pg immediately afterwards. So that seems to work for some people.
Saffy: If you've fallen pg naturally before could this happen again? I hope this is the month for your natural sticky babe.
Sunbeam: I'm sure the wait feels like a long one. I had an enforced 3mth break from TTC after my first mc and it had its ups and downs. The positive was that it gave me a break from stressing about TTC. Also, although it felt like a long time at the beginning, of course it slowly but surely did pass. I hope you feel healthy and ready to go when you reach the end of your 4mths. Hope your MRI went well.
Loops: I hope you get your sticky BFP really soon.
Craftymummy: hope you are well and that when it comes to it you find that you are in the mood to DTD. It's very hard keeping up that motivation longer term i know.

Thanks for the welcome ladies
AFM ~ BFN this morning and it was at 1am this morning after getting back from hospital, leaving DH who was trampled by some cattle yestie
He doesnt have internal bleeding or head injuries but some minor fractures in his neck and back. He will ok but must be in heaps of pain and its been a very long 24hours He has to go to Melb and may need some minor surgery. Wish there was some good news amongst all of this stress and pain but no we never have any such luck

loops-sorry it was a bfn...possummagic-glad things are back to being okay...saffy-i'm not expecting a bfp naturally either,there is a part of us that still remains hopeful though,hope your enjoying the beach...sunbeam-hope the mri went okay...minniemouse-i'm about 10 dpo...craftymummy-hope your Mum's stay is great...indias mum-hope the bedfest is fruitful...luna-where are you up to?..afm-testing in a few days time...
-
Loops - Sorry about the BFN and I hope that DH is ok. What a horrible night for you and him.
I have never had mid cycle bleeding before but this morning (Day 15) I have bright red spotting. What does that mean? I feel a bit freaked out by it.
-
hi india's mum,i have never had one but some describe implantation bleeding as bright red spotting,hope so for you.Or maybe your cervix got a bit irritated with the b'ding,that has happened to me,just a few spots,gone my the next day...
-
Thanks Matthew's Mum - I think it would be way too early for implantation as I generally don't ovulate until around Day 18 but I guess the b'ding could have caused it.
-
loops: sorry to hear about the bfn and also about your DH, i hope he is on the mend soon !
matthewsmum: any symptoms for you ?
india's mum: not sure about the bleeding either, i hope you ovulate soon
possum magic: how long are you doing the clexane for ? how will things go with work.....i think you started a new job a little while ago ?
afm: 10 dpo and wishing this next week away, will know one way or the other by the weekend. im getting my progesterone level result today so im hoping for a good number to show a "good" level & confirm ovulation
-
hi chicks-
minniemouse- I am 8DPO so nothing to report except sore boobs (which is normal for me at this stage). Good luck for your BT, I think I will know by next weekend as well, not holdng out any hope but had a dream last night that i got a bfp so I obviously subconsciously am! Good luck to you!
India'smum- I don't know what that spotting could be, hope it just goes away, if you still feel freaked and it stays go to a doctor for peace of mind ( Sorry if its TMI but was it after DTD?) ps- I dread having to BD on command and so does DH I'm sure! It has definately killed our sexlife.
matthewsmum- are you testing tomorrow? Good luck if you are!
Hi Loops- welcome in here, I hope your testing was too early and your DH feels better- sounds very stressful
Possummagic- nice to see you babe, hang in there you will be 12wks before you know it. Yes i have fallen preg naturally before but last time I was 36 and I feel like I am just too old now- its been 2 years, no joy.
Crafty- good for you with temping, sounds like you are doing ok- FX for a temp rise soon so you can give DH a break in the bedroom lol.
Sunbeam- I hope your MRI went ok, let us know hun!
AFM- had a great weekend and didn't think about ttc once so that was good- except for my dream last night- where i got a bfp- wasn't very happy when I woke up and realised it wasn't true lol!! I'm only 8DPO so a week to go, at least when AF comes I get to do an FET a coupe of wks later.
Sticky vibes to everyone!!!!
-
Hi Lovelies,
Loops - Glad you came over to us I hope your BFP comes quickly. So sorry to hear about your DH I hope that he is on the mend qucikly. All the crapy things come at once don't they? :hug:
All those in the TWW heaps and heaps of :bluedust::pink-babydust: Bring on the :bfp:s
Saffy - I hope AF stays gone but if she doesn't I wish I was doing FET with you. You go first and show me how its done babe. Bring on the frostie babies :dance:
Crafty - It is hard to remember to temp to start with but then it becomes so second nature you even start to dream you've done it even before you wake up!
AFM - I HAD AN MRI yay me I did it!!!! I'd love to say that 4 valium knocked me out and i slept through it, but NO! It was still incredibly hard, I had to focus my thoughts the whole time (I was listening to Pink and pretending I was at her concert). A few times when my thoughts drifted to where I really was my heart started to race, even on 4 valium! I thought I would be pretty out of it but I can even remember thinking "that's 3 songs down that must be about 9 minutes I should be about half way through"! Horrible, horrible, horrible but I did it, phew! I see the specialist on the 19th to get the results but of course my back has been feeling fine for days! Oh yes, just to make it even more special I got killer AF cramps half way into my MRI, excellent timing :doh:. Anyway one AF down 3 to go then I'll be waiting to defrost my snowbuds.
-
saffy: i hope you start getting some positive signs to indicate a bfp coming your way !
sunbeam: yay for making it through the mri, i hope the results are good for you
afm: well it looks like this cycle is over for me at 10 dpo, i have started bleeding and have cramping and backpain, im sure its not implantation, this is the way the last few cycles have gone for me........not sure what i will do now, i have one more cycle of clomid but im wondering whether i should start thinking about ivf and getting the ball rolling there........sigh
-
minniemouse-sorry,big hugs...afm-no symptoms,so i'll give it another day or 2,then test..thinking of you all
-
sunbeam- I wish we could do an FET together too- I'll do a stim cycle after this FET so maybe we will cycle together then!
minniemouse has af definately come? or is there a chance that its implantation??
hi everyone else x
-
saffy: bleeding isn't heavy at all but i am having heaps of pain so im sure it is af. how are you going ?
matthewsmum: when are you testing ? fingers crossed for you when you do
so it appears i have a problem with my luteal phase, any suggestions in fixing it ? i have been doing some reading about vitex, anyone had experience with it ?
-
minniemouse-do you mean your luteal phase is too short? I can't help really cos mines long, girls on here have used vitex in the past with good results I think, its worth a try- there are probably olds threads about it somewhere try a search. I hope you are just cramping from implantation not af hun.
I'm fine, boobs still sore, but I think I'm 10DPO now, I keep having dreams I am pregnant- wishful thinking lol!
babydust to everyone xx
-
thanks saffy, i found some info on vitex last night and thought i would try it then i found a thread on BB that said you can't take vitex and clomid together as they basically cancel each other out so now im not sure what to do
fingers crossed for you, are you an early tester ?
-
minniemouse- I normally don't test much at all ( although everyone on here testing away makes it hard to resist lol) but funny you should ask cos yesterday morning I got home from night shift and thought- bugger it I'm just going to test- BFN of course as I was only 9DPO *embarrassing*.
So now I don't have any tests left and unless I drag myself out in the pouring rain (not going to happen) and buy some more I will just have to wait! SO serves me right haha!
i would think that you would have a greater statistical chance of pregnancy on clomid than vitex, what dose you on??
I'm off to the physio to try and fix my back which I hurt before xmas, it wa getting better but one of my kittys brought a live mouse into the lounge room last night and I hurt it again running from the room screaming :ROFL:
-
saffy: i know what its like, i say i won't test but as i get closer i can't help myself ! i wouldn't worry about a bfn now at 9 dpo, especially doing it after a night shift where you were probably eating and drinking so the urine probably wasn't too concentrated. fingers crossed when you test again !
hope your back is feeling better, hehe at your helpful kitty cat !
im on 50 mg of clomid, im ovulating on that dose but wondering if a higher dose would make any difference to my progesterone levels throughout the cycle
loops: has af turned up or have you tested again ? hows DH ?
hi to everyone
-
HI girls-
minniemouse- I was on 50mg fopr 3 months- no joy, I wish now I had increased it to 100mg, but oh well. Were your progesterone levels low?? Have you asked your Dr about it? The reason I tested after nightduty was cos I knew I was dehydrated- had a busy night 2 births, last one at 0645 so had no break!!
AFM- spotting Wednesday night and got my hopes up but of course it has continued and now am waiting for AF to arrive, I hope she hurries up, at least I know I am doing the FET now so can get my head around it. I wish it would stop raining. Feeling depressed cos I just realised it is 2 years since I got preg and miscarried, and still have no baby after all this time- boo hoo!!! How can bl**dy posh spice get pregnant when she weighs about 20kg????? GRRRR!
