Hi Ladies,
Took fri & mon off work so vowed to stay away from all technology this weekend & just relax. Had a wonderful facial & massage yesterday, got my hair & nails done, etc. Feel so good after some girly pampering. Wish I had a sugar daddy as having someone to tend to me 24-7 would really help in the conception dept I think!
So sorry to hear your news Sunbeam. When I got to your first post was sooo excited for you. Know it probably won't help much but the fact that you are conceiving is a huge head start & hopefully this new donor does the trick. Hope you are feeling slightly better today!
Claresmummy, what a crappy situation. It sounds like your MIL is a pain in the... Don't really have experience in these matters (my in-laws live in Scotland) but think I would try & stick it out. In my opinion it is YOUR home & YOUR fiance. You shouldn't be made to feel like you need to leave your own home. Maybe she just needs to be stood up to once & will then back down. On the plus side if things do come to a head, you have an excuse not to have them stay ever again! Hope your DF sees your side of things & you can work out a plan of attack!
Saffy, thought for sure it was on its way but hasn't arrived as yet. I hate getting my hopes up like this! Every month I tell myself to forget about it & focus on other things but then you might get a twinge, or more tender than usual boobs & BINGO, you're obsessed again. Only on CD27 so AF has a few more days to make her entrance. GL with your blood tests & glad AF was gentle with you!
hi all,saffy-thank you,hope this cycle the one for you...age-belated welcome to the thread,good for you treating yourself to some pampering...afm-waiting for 'o',doing another natural cycle ,saving for next ivf.
Mathew'smum - Good to have you back. I hope the saving goes well but that a natural BPF means you putting to your savings instead.
Crafty - I'm sorry your body is playing games. it would seem odd for vitex to mess up your cycle when its supposed to restore a cycle. I hope it gets back on track quickly or maybe a bt might be in order.
Saffy - I'm glad AF was kind to you this time. I'm glad to hear they will be monitoring you well this cycle.
age78- That's good that you have been pampering yourself, reducing stress definitely helps in the TTC game.
Minnemouse - Any news?
GL to all those in the TWW.
AFM- Bt confirmed negative result so I am not really sure what happened but my instinct is that something tried to start and the HPT somehow picked up on the low level of HCG. Back to waiting for AF and the next cycle. Donor daddy and his partner found out today they are having another boy (that'll be 3 boys) so she has said I will be in big trouble if I end up with a girl!
Hi Ladies
Matthewsmum ~ good to here from you, all the best with O'ing, hope you catch that egg so you dont need to do the IVF
Sunbeam ~ very sorry for your BFN - Its good to know that something happened though isnt it - that one step closer. Has to stick properly eventually - keep trying!
Crafty ~ hope you are feeling better and your body is behaving!
Saffy ~ hope all is going well so far with your cycle!
Age78 ~ hope you're well, all the best!
AFM ~ I had some pink streaks yesterday arvo - hoping its implantation- then my temp this morning was 37.2 very high for the morning but that also could be due to still being a bit fluey, certainly not getting hopes up too much just yet. Although considering I believe I O'd only a few days ago it would be way to early for AF to be here. So yeh I'm quietly confident - perhaps its just our time at the moment. Just need one to eventually stick,
Loops~ Thank you for the hugs darl, I am going to need lots of them to get through the next few days....Hmmm pink streaking sounds promising darl, FX for you tightly. Good luck stalking you,
Crafty~ So sorry to hear AF has arrived early for you darl, hugs to you. I haven't had anything to do with Vitex either so I am no help to you on that one darl, sorry. Hope your new cycle is better behaved for you with a sticky BFP at the end of it darl, take care of you.
Saffy~ Good luck with your scan darl and catching your egg this cycle, thinking of you and hoping this cycle ends wonderfully for you my dear. FX for your BFP.
Age78~ So jealous of your pampering darl, lucky woman. I would kill for a day of pampering even a couple of hours would be great, lol. Hope you enjoyed every second of it darl you deserve it all. How are you going with your cycle darl?
MathewsMum~ Good luck with catching your egg darl, I have everything crossed for you to get your sticky BFP sending you some very lucky
Sunbeam~ So sorry darl your hopes where shattered big hugs to you. Sounds like your DD partner is supportive of you so that is great, had to have a little chuckle when I read about if you have a girl and she has 3 boys, lol. Hope AF is kind to you and gets gone quickly so you can get to your next O day darl. Take care of you and good luck.
AFM~ Well FF tells me I O'd on CD14, I can not believe how much my cycle is changing since we have moved over here, in the last 3 years I have never O'd a day before CD20 and always had an LP of 5-8 days. I am currently 5DPO today so in the dreaded Turns out if FF is right we DTD the night before I O'd, so not sure if that gives me much of a chance of getting a BFP or not. Had some weird cramping type pains yesterday not sure what they were but haven't had any today, also had a bit of a temp dip yesterday morning as well but it was back up again this morning. Had the worst nights sleep last night all I kept dreaming about was people and animals being dead it was horrible, not sure what that was all about either, even had a guy in my dream who took our kitten and started skinning it in front of me I was devastated and horrified. So needless to say the first thing I did when I got out of bed this morning was go straight out and check on our kitten. Of course he is fine thank goodness.
Thank you for all your support ladies and advice you have given me on the outlaws arriving I think they are arriving tomorrow, feeling a little more settled with them coming up but I am so jealous of the ladies that have the in laws living overseas maybe I should purchase a one way ticket for my MIL, LOL.
crafty: sorry to hear af turned up unexpectedly, i don't know much about vitex but i think it can work well or stuff things up and it sounds like the latter for you, how long have you been on it ?
sunbeam: i hope af shows up for you and you get that extra sticky bfp next cycle
loops: fingers crossed for you, i hope you get your bfp this cycle too
saffy: here's hoping this cycle is the one for you, with the extra monitoring you will have
clairesmummy: thats a horrible dream, im guessing you are feeling pretty anxious about the inlaws visit, i also don't think you should have to leave your home while they are there but i know how uncomfortable i would be in that atmosphere
matthewsmum: good luck for your natural cycle
hi to age78
afm: well girls i got myself a have been sitting on the news because quite frankly posting it here is scary because it means it is real and i also wanted to watch and see if the lines got darker, it was confirmed by blood test today. im just going to keep it in this thread for now ok and for those who have me on facebook please not a word on there as my brother is friends with some of my friends on there and im scared my family will find out and they are the last people i want knowing
Hey Minniemouse, CONGRATULATIONS! (Not sure how to do the dancing cheerleader bit!) Seems like the 2ww was worth it! Hope it is smooth sailing for you over the next couple of weeks! Just take it easy & try to relax! Sending big positive thoughts your way....!!!
minnie- another big on your bfp, sounds like a sticky one, was your bhcg good?? I hope so, what a nice birthday pressie, I know you want to keep it quiet so let us know when we can have a real party!
claresmummy- those dreams sound horrible, you must be feeling really stressed about the inlaws and its coming out in your dreams. If you DTD the night before Oing, that is perfect timing so
Loops- has you still got the spotting? Sounds suspicious, so I am for you too!
Beautiful Sunbeam- how are you feeling babe? I am so sorry this one didn't work, but hope AF comes soon so you can get onto your bfp xxx
Hi crafty, matthewsmum and Age78, hope all is well with you all too x
afm- scan tomorrow, think I am on track, have been doing opks just to make sure, got ewcm already so no doubt i will O soon, can't wait to do another transfer and get into a tww again ( am i mad??). If I get a bfn we are going overseas for 3 wks in Sept so will not be doing another cycle til the end of the year, so something to look forward to either way xx
saffy: my hcg was 99 and progesterone was 130 so pretty good for the day af was due i think. good luck at your scan, i hope it shows a nice big follicle (or 2), an overseas trip sounds good, would you not still go if you got a bfp ?
afm: im having another blood test sat to see if the levels are rising (won't get the result until monday), my dr wants me to have a scan at 6 weeks but im not keen on that early because i would prefer to go when there is going to be a heartbeat if there is going to be one
thanks Joeve and loops, its all a bit scary, its hard to relax and trust my body is doing what it is meant to do. loops i hope you will getting another bfp soon !
joeve: i hope things are going well for you
Minniemouse - Whoo congratulations What an excellent birthday pressie! Your numbers sound great I really hope it is a good sticky bean.
Saffy - Good luck with your scan tomorrow it is all sounding promising. I'm glad you have the OS trip to focus on as a back up, that's bound to make a BFP (they like to mess up our plans )
Loops - Your signs are sounding promising and the BFPs come in groups in here so you could be next. Yes 7dpo is way too early the very earliest I've read of is 9dpo but even that is quick.
Clairesmummy - Cramps at 5dpo, could be implantation! Good luck with the outlaws, I hope they behave but if not I hope you find the strength to stand up for yourself. Sorry about the horrid dream I hate having bad dreams about my gorgeous kitty, makes me feel dreadful.
AFM - Thanks for all the love and support girls. AF is sort of here, very light at the moment, I'm hoping she picks up a bit tomorrow. I have decided to go back to the TCM man and get the herbs that you have to boil up into a tea because I felt really good on them last time and even though the bub passed I still feel like they were helping my body to hold it so it will be interesting being on them from before conception to see if they help with that too. Going to get donor daddy some menevit too, he's pretty stressed out at the moment and it can't hurt.
Just wanted to pop in and say hello. It's been a while. Got a nice surprise to read your news Minnie Mouse. Woot! Woot! Sticky sticky vibes!
Sunbeam: sorry that the second line did not stay for you. I hope you get a nice strong BFP soon.
Saffy: I hope you will get a BFP with one of your frosties but I applaud your bravery for thinking about the longer term and looking after yourself and your happiness by thinking about how long you want to pursue IVF with all the stresses involved.
Clairesmummy: Yay for a normal cycle and being spot on with BD timing. I hope you got a winner this month. Oh, and tough one about the in-laws. I hope you can run away for a few days if you need to so you and DD don't have to put up with the stress.
Loops: Hope this month is your month!
Mathewsmum: Hope your natural cycle pays off and you get to save your money for something else nice!
Craftymummy: Sorry you have had a funny cycle this month. Very frustrating for you.
Age78: I hope your stay here is short and you get a BFP soon!
