Good lord ladies your going off this month! i hope sooooo hard the luck continues got my fingers crossed extra tight for you porsche that your ivf works first go. And of corse everyone else gets their BFPs.
It really makes me so happy when people get their long awaited BFPs, i dont think its too much to ask the baby fairy to do a little better next month
Pumpgirl – Congratulations on your pg! Wishing you all the best for a happy & healthy little bundle of joy
Bec – Best of luck for this cycle. I am sorry AF showed. I understand the disappointment and wish it were easier for us. I had hoped you were going to surprise us with a BFP post I hope all goes well with your new FS – sounds like the timing is going to be spot on.
In relation to your q – we have told DD we are having a baby but it’s a ‘secret’. I don’t think she gets the whole secret thing b/c she told my sister that a toy monkey we had bought was for the ‘baby’ and my sister asked ‘who’s baby?’ and then put two & two together. Not a big deal b/c it is my sister but due to our history of m/c we were going to try to hold out until the 10 week scan….. Like I said to DH – family is ok to know it’s just hard to tell everyone if the pg ends in m/c b/c it is so emotional etc…. Plus I am a fairly emotionally closed person so we just don’t usually discuss that much private stuff about us to family & IRL friends anyway.
Claudette – Sorry to hear your test was neg. Hopefully you can be part of the next wave of BFP to hit this thread
Porsche – Fingers crossed your cycle doesn’t get cancelled. I hope you are ok
Hi to everyone else. Sorry if I have missed any of you – I am at work and am rushing to post this before people start coming in Have a great day
Even if you do over stimulate can they freeze your eggs till next cycle? Fingers crossed you dont o/s but if you do make sure you take time for your self my cousin did and she said it wasnt painfull but very uncomfortable.
Thanks very much everyone, we are very excited - although cautious.
Jules - How are you feeling? I hope so far so good for you!
RisRis - Yes, I can highly recommend the Kakadu Juice, we have found the best way to buy it is through TVSN as they always have special deals. It isn't cheap but you only need a shot of it per day - I also put it in my (super smoothies post workout which also includes: Banana, Skim Milk, No Fat tub set yoghurt, berries, egg white - although will be dropping this, oats, ABC spread, Spirulina & sprinkle chia seeds on top... Very very yummy and super nutritious.
Porsche - FX for you, I really hope that it all goes smoothly and you don't over stim, my thoughts are with you
Bec - I am really sorry to hear about AF, I thought that you might end up with a BFP this month, I am sorry that my message was probably the first thing you saw when you logged on :-( It is OK to be really disappointed, this would have to be one of the hardest things to deal with. I really, really hope that this is your month! FX!!!!!
Clamage - Best of luck this cycle hun, holidays seem to help with getting PG.
I agree with you Tammara, it isn't too much to ask for more BFPs, I have my FX for everyone in here, you all deserve your long awaited BFP
xx

CONGRATULATIONS PUMPGIRL! Its so exciting you got your BFP!!!
Well i was looking at my "positive" wall last night and i realised that 2 of the things on there came true, i did ovulate and clomid worked for me lol! So now i am hoping my other 2 posters will come true (about getting preg and sustaining a healthy pregnancy) lol!!
I am feeling so sore today! I spent most of the w.e drugged up (love you nurofen plus and panadene forte) i can't believe how painful this period is, but thats to be expected cos its getting rid of 6-7 months of lining i suppose...
Sorry for the no persies, people have started coming into work so i better look busy!!
Arrrrr, another BFP I am SOOOOO excited I can’t believe it, that has to be the BEST month ever, 4, wow.
Congratulations Pumpgirl, that is truly amazing, woo hoo, you will not be spending your 30’s TTC, yippee! And yey to big BB’s on their way now, lol! I love the story, thanks so much for sharing. Please keep the updates coming, I couldn’t be happier for you! How far along now? Any symptoms? Any sickness?
Wow the BB’s chat has been great, thanks for indulging me ladies. Yes Pumpgirl is right, there are some very well endowed ladies in here, and I thought mine were big, lol! Bring on preggy BB’s for all, he he!
Porsche, glad to hear you have started injections. Why does your FS think you will over stimulate? Such a bummer if you do. I have everything crossed that you travel perfectly with a sticky BFP at the end of your first cycle. GL hun!
Bec, oh hun, it’s never good when AF arrives, even if you were expecting her, still sux. Sorry to hear hun. Great attitude though, chin up and I have everything crossed for you this month coming. It HAS to be your turn next!
Liz, glad to hear your FS made you laugh, it’s very important in this very trying journey. Yes your FS is right, this forum is just amazing, I don’t know how I would’ve got through this without each and every one of you, I honestly believe that we all have a bit to do with each BFP that is posted, everyone’s advise and support is just incredible. GL with your next step. I’m not sure about moods on injections, sorry, cant help there.
Claudette, fantastic to hear from you again, so glad to hear you had a wonderful break. Hopefully that is just what your body needed. GL coming up to testing time. So Preseed – I have some and only used it when absolutely necessary as I was told that natural CM is best. However I agree with Rhi to only use a very small amount, it works so well that you can loose some of the sensation if you use as much as they tell you, it is good though cos if you have the applicators you can insert it inside, makes it a lot cleaner, sorry for TMI, didn’t know how else to describe it. HTH’s.
RisRis, welcome to this amazing forum. Wow sounds like you have had quite a journey, GL and hopefully your stay here is short. Let us know how DP’s SA results go, GL for him.
Kris, love your imagination, thanks for the visual on the triumph story, lol!
Rhi, lol at your DD, that is way too cute. How old is she? Clearly not old enough to know what a secret is. Hope she doesn’t spoil your good news too many more times. Not long till the 10 week scan now anyway. So exciting how fast it all goes.
AFM not much to report, just over 19 weeks now so looking forward to the next scan where they count the fingers and toes. Now I know this will sound strange (think I have told some of you this before) but DH was born with 3 thumbs so we are on the lookout for any extra digits, they weren’t able to see clearly enough at the last scan as I was only 11.5 weeks so hopefully being 20.5 weeks will make a big difference.
GL for everyone in the upcoming month, I can’t wait for next month to smash this month out of the water.
I think he thinks I'll over stim because I'm still "young" in IVF terms. My AMH levels are really good so there won't be any problem producing follies. The problem is I may produce heaps and heaps of follies on a low dose and OHSS.
Sorry I have been MIA, had a bit of a up and down weekend.
Pumpgirl - Wow, congrats on your fabulous news, both of them. Good idea to have the heart rate monitor on and don't forget to keep your temp regulated. Good luck getting the shop up and running soon.
Hope - Glad to hear everything went well this morning, great that you got to hear bubby's heart beat, must be reassuring. to you.
Bec - Hopefully the heavy AF is a good sign and you will be posting a BFP on the list next month. I agree about the wanting it now, I don't like waiting either.
Rhi - I agree with the other girls about the blood test, might help put your mind at ease. for you.
Keli - How exciting that you get to see your little bub, let us know how it goes, I love that you keep us updated.
Porsche - Thanks for all your help with my charts, they are still all over the place but more about that later. I hope everything goes well with you this cycle and that you are being added to the list as a BFP too.
Kris - I am glad you are excited about starting the clomid again. What dose and days are you on? Hopefully you get a BFP on this cycle.
Hi to everyone else. Sorry if I forgot anyone.
AFM - Well BT Friday didn't start well, I ended up with 3 holes and a couple of good bruises. 1st vein disappeared, 2nd only got 1ml of blood and the 3rd took about 10minutes to get 10ml, so should have taken it as a sign that things weren't going to go well.
Saturday night DH and I went to the local show for a night out. If one more person asks me when I was going to have a baby (or tells me to start as I'm not getting any younger) I am going to scream. I did have a good chat with a girl I use to swimming train with who is due in October. She had a lot of trouble TTC as well and has apparently been having recurring dreams about me so hopefully that is a good sign.
Sunday was spent relaxing on the couch as it was a late one the night before and I was verrrry tired. Was feeling pretty good as FF Chart predicted ovulation last Thursday based on temps.
Monday I had a day off work, luckily as Dr's office rang and shattered any hope of anything this month. BT results showed that I am still not ovulating and I have to double my dose of Clomid next month. I was pretty devastated (still am) and now have to wait for AF to arrive so I can start again.
Pumpgirl, lol that would be awesome if you had twins. I had a feeling I was too, think it was due to the excessive ms and the fact that I was on Clomid. KUP
Hope, glad to hear the spotting has stopped and you got to see the HB, that’s awesome hun.
Oh ShanShan, so sorry to hear your new hun, just one blow after another isn’t it. So what does Clomid are you up to now? I have everything crossed that next moth is a doubly good month for you hun. Hope you’re feeling better.
Hi ShanShan,
i am on 50mg of clomid, and won't need to go up as i ovulated on it. However, i have lost my repeats prescription in case i need it again! Can't find the bluming thing anywhere!!
Oh and that totally sucks about the blood tests!! I hate needles and i would have walked out if she couldn't find the vein first try!! *shudder* absolutely hate needles!!
Keli I started on 50mg so up to 100mg next month. Just starting to wish something would go my way. Isn't helping that I have nausea today.
Kris the nurse taking the blood is a friend and I actually felt bad for her cause I have dodgy veins. I usually leave with at least 2 holes. You get used to it and luckily needles don't phase me (must be all the blood tests I had as a teenager when they were trying to diagnose the fibromyalgia, lol). I used to donate blood and I am sure they used to shudder when I turned up with my dodgy veins.
Pumpgirl a huge congrats to you, my fingers are crossed that you have a event free pregnancy.
Bec, I was sure you were going to be posting a BFP this month. And it is so okay to want to have a baby now, that's want we all want and I think deserve. Like shan said, hopefully having a heavy AF is a good sign for this month. FX'd for you.
Shan, looks like you are going onto the next step with your journey upping the dosage of clomid. My viens are dodgy as well, I have found if I make sure that I drink lots of water leading up to the test it is alot easier for having BT. Just a little question if you don't mind me asking, do you see Dr Watson at Northwest Private? IKWYM about people asking "when are you having a baby", everyone seems to be asking us and is just so hard not to say, well we are trying, but it just osn't that easy for some people. Hugs to you.
Miss Kris FX'd that this cycle works, at least you know that you o'd on 50mg. GL for not needing the repeat script.
Hope, can't say much, cause I have never been pg, but can't you sometimes, have a little bit of brown spotting at the beginning of the pg?? At least you were able to talk to your fs and the spotting stopped for you. FX'd that you have a carefree pg for the rest of it.
sorry to anyone I have missed, babydust to everyone still DTD and best wishes for those UTD.
AFM, day 5/10 of provera and already the wierd dreams have started, well not started as I constantly have them, they just seem to get wierder while taking provera. I have had the busiest weekend. We had a BBQ at our place for my b'day so we spent sat cleaning up the downstairs (luckly cause it rained sun) and went shopping for all the food. Sunwas good, as I only had to prepare a few things for lunch and got to relax before everyone came and then enjoy the afternoon with everyone istead of running around. Nothing else to report until AF ariives which should be in approx 15 days.
Am off for Beta HCG tomorrow, with follow up on Friday and u/s. I know that I am m/c (or have) due to blood loss, lack of pg symptoms amongst other things. So, I will be back to join you lovelies permanently probably next week if I feel up to it.
