[lilminion]

Rhi wow a big congratulations to you both n having an uneventful pg and you have a little bundle of joy in you arms in 8 months time. It is grreat to see that there is a light at the end of the tunnel of the TTC journey.

Sorry for a short one but doing this before work so I can get all the tears out of my system. I was sooo positive this month that I would be posting a BFP, but it wasn't to be . Off to the FS tomorrow for our 6 wk appointment and to discuss the FSH injections I will be having this cycle.

Sorry for the short one, babydust to everyone and again congrats Rhi.

Morning ladies!!
Just a quick one with a question maybe one of you could answer??
I rang the docs today to get my test results and apparently my progesterone level is 45...is this good? I know it means i ovulated!
But i just realised i don't know much about progesterone levels! lol
I couldn't help myself and POAS this morning and i once again berated myself and knew it was too early and was going to be neg and went back to bed! lol
Im so naughty! But yes, as i said to my MIL (who rang me at 10:01am cos she knew i was getting my results at 10am lol she is just as excited as me), even if i don't get preg this round, i am SO grateful that the clomid worked and i won't need to up the dosage or anything!
But yes it would be AWESOME if i could join you Ahurani, Hope & Rhi in BFP this month!! It would be amazing if we ALL did!! lol!

Hi girls. Just thought I would pop in and see how everyone was going. Was on this thread a while back and had 6 cycles of clomid - dye through tubes and then finally fell - all up trying almost 2 years. Anyway, thought I would let you know I had a girl at the end of March, Matilda.

Fingers crossed for you all still. This thread was the most supportive when it was needed.

Morning Ladies

OMG RhiChiChi! Massive congratulations. I wish you a huge happy and healthy pregnancy and I sincerely hope it is uneventful and you suffer terrible morning sickness IYKWIM? I'm sure this will be the sticky one you've so desperately waited for. You so deserve this!

It's you and me now Bec! We HAVE to GET OFF this merrigo round. It has to be our turn next yeah???

Tammara thanks for the tip. LOL DH thinks it's no big deal haha.

Pumpgirl -Yes this is my first IVF. I'm excited but also dissapointed we couldn't do it naturally but very very greatful to have the option to do IVF.

Thanks hun, IKWYM about wanting to be ill & everything! I wish you all the very best with your upcoming IVF cycle.

Kris - I had similar readings whilst on Clomid but didn't fall pg - just my experience. I think the lap helped & being on Clomid for those 6 mths. GL

Hi there, I don't think I 'met' you but Congratulations on the birth of your little girl. Always nice ot hear positive stories

Thanks for the bit about the maybe baby. I am doing OPK tests daily as well. The only thing that has changed this month is the clomid. I have always tossed and turned (lucky we have a King size bed) and I wake a lot during the night which the Dr puts down to the fibromyalgia. Always temp around same time, immediately after waking. Probably do spend some of my sleeping time with my mouth open, don't know. Also haven't been sick (touch wood).
If you can make any sense of my chart you are doing better than me cause I am thoroughly confused.
Sorry no persies, will do them tomorrow after my BT (the only reason I am coming to work tomorrow, lol)

[ShanShan]

Miss Kris your charts do look similar to mine so maybe there is hope for me yet! Hopefully you will get your BFP soon and I won't be far behind, lol. Good luck with the not testing, you will have to try and find something to keep you occupied in the mornings. I'm sure DH could probably come up with something

I would say that last cycle you ovulated on CD18 not the CD26 it is saying. This cycle you are very up and down. It's hard to tell if you are leading up to O. I would like to see your temp go up tomorrow and continue to go up as todays temp is your lowest.

Are you consistently temping at the same time? Are you temping as soon as you wake? No tossing and turning? Do you sleep with your mouth open? All these things affect your temps and could be causing the erratic rises and falls. Have you been sick at all? All these things could be a factor.

The thing that makes me think there is something else going on is the fact that your other charts aren't as erratic as this one. There must be something different your doing etc...

[Porsche]

Forgot to mention forget the maybe baby. They cause more confusion, frustration, hassels etc.. than they are worth. Stick to OPK's they are more accurate.

Hi Rhi

Dont know if it will help you but when i fell preg my ivf dr had me using a gel that you insert vaginally it helped line my uterus and i was also on little tablets that did the same from inside. I think the gel is called crinone its expensive $163 for 15 applications but it might help if your concerned at all. Although im sure you wont need any help but thought i would mention it to everyone.

And im doing good Bec, i was feeling bubs kicking me the other morning but when hubby went to feel she stopped - he was too impatient to wait for her to move again.

[redgum]

Shan - Don't worry too much about the O signs, although I don't chart I didn't have any other traditional signs this month either and my prog BT came back with a strong result. I think you are getting your BT today aren't you? My approach is to DTD every two days regardless of when I think o timing is. In saying that I haven't fallen PG yet so my way is probably not the right way IYKWIM ;-)

GL hun!

[redgum]

Just realised I missed a whole bunch of posts before replying this am - Bec I am so sorry to hear that, although it aint over till it's over so FX you just tested too early.

Hello to everyone else - hope you all have a good weekend!!

Hi Ladies,

Just a quick post, im a bit devo but happy at the same time.
AF has just arrived.
I woke up this morning with no feeling at all, my bbs were heavy, but not sore, i didn't feel anything. I just knew that she was on her way, but i couldn't think about it. Then at lunch i had a huge chat with DH about my feelings and emotions on this all and i thought to myself, right AF come if you must and no ****, i sat bolt right up and said to hubby, i gotta go. He was like what? why? huh? lol i just said, she's here and he just stood there mouth open "How do you woman know these things" lol it made me smile. He is so sweet! Gave me the biggest hug and i drove home quickly.
*sigh*
So its not my cycle and i am sad that it isn't, but i am also happy because i ovulated for the first time EVER and i am finally getting a period after like 7 months! lol my last one was in January!!

Next cycle is OUR cycle porsche & bec!!
We will prevail!
(imagine me holding a sword to the sky with my hair flying in the wind and a lightning bolt in the background) lol

Afternoon Ladies,

Miss Kris, so from what I know of progesterone tests all they can tell is if you did or didn’t O. Yey for Oing, very exciting. Poo to AF showing up though, sorry hun. Next month is definitely yours. Lol to AF showing up when you told her too, maybe next month you can tell her to say away for 9months or so, he he!

31Becc, Congratulations on the birth of little Matilda, I’m pretty sure I remember you from very early on. Fantastic to hear a story all the way through. I hope motherhood is being kind to you. Thanks for sharing.

Wow Rhi I saw your ticker, 5 weeks already, it’s crazy isn’t it. Many symptoms yet?

ShanShan, Wow you’re chart really is all over the place. Stick with it if you have the patience though, I’m sure it’ll eventually start talking to you (IYKWIM). And I didn’t know you have Fibromyalgia, a guy at my work, his wife has it and suffers terribly and has for years. Does it cause you a lot of grief? What sort of SE do you get form it.

Bec, poo to a BFN, you’re not out yet though. I tested negative on DPO9 and then positive on DPO10, so I’m not counting you out just yet, even if you are.

Porsche, I am so excited that you are starting your needles on Sunday (IYKWIM). Looking forward to another positive month for all you lovely ladies.

Pumpgirl, yey for Oing, that is fantastic news hun, at least you know you could b pg rather than another waisted month. FX’ed!

Tammara, not sure if I ever congratulated you but that is awesome news that you are having a girl. I bet you can’t wait to meet her now!

AFM: Not much to report, belly is constantly growing, it has finally overtaken my 12E boobs, lol (they weren’t that big to start with). Still spewing each morning but I’m not complaining. 19weeks on Sunday, can’t wait to be over the half way mark. Thanks to all you ladies being of with me still posting in here, I try my best to be sensitive and just don’t want to upset anyone.

Fantastic news for those who have got their long awaited BFP’s this month, I know next month will hold many more exciting times for this site. Looking forward to taking part in it all.
