Thanks Bec, Hope and Kris!!

Bec - I think your being really strong hun, you have been through a lot and I am glad you can visualise holding that little baby (it will happen). Yes, the smoothie is absolutely de'lish - you can substitute fruit for other ones that you prefer, I have even put dried cranberries in there... I am sending positive thoughts for you xx

Kris - I am glad you are using your positive wall - I think it is a brilliant idea to keep your eye on the prize!

Hope - I have my fingers crossed for you hun, I really hope everything goes smoothly, maybe if it will put your mind at risk you should just give him a call?

Keli - GL for the scan, FX everything is OK and you have a perfect little bub in the oven. Yes, I am hugely looking forward to BB's given how little I am ;-)

AFM - Well I have had a pretty crazy day, I found out that we definitely got the site for our new store :-) Am crazy excited, I can't believe that our business is really going to happen... I also took my first body pump class since finding out I was UTD, was a little harder than normal even though I dropped most of my weights down ... Not sure if it really was harder or I was more aware of what my body was saying to me. I am going to wear a heart rate monitor in my classes from tomorrow morning just to keep an eye on things. And.... I got my BT done this morning, HCG = 480, I am having a guess I am about 15DPO based on ovulation being CD15.

Otherwise I am feeling OK, not many big symptoms... I have noticed the following though: really thirsty - can't drink enough water and I am not an overly dehydrated person, my pee is brighter yellow, many more loo visits, sore bbs and a bit of cramping, otherwise everything is fairly normal.

Anyway girls, babydust to you all... You ladies are such a good support and I am so so glad that I joined this site.

Hey all,

Unfortunately I have starting spotting brown blood, well more when I wipe & have low cramping and my bbies aren't as sore, so could be a bad sign. Am trying to remain optimistic but that dark cloud is hanging over my head and I am terribly worried. Am just going to stay home for the moment and not go to hospital unless I start spotting red blood.

Sorry for the me post, jsut sick of sitting on the couch thinking constantly about this turn of events :S

[tammara]

im thinking very happy positive thoughts for you and bubs, it could be nothing try not to stress - very easy thing to say i know xxoo

[Porsche]

RhiChiChi I'm praying with all my might that it's just some spotting and that bub is snuggling in nice and tight!

[miss kris]

Rhi! Sending you LOADS of and


Just a side note, i start my clomid again tonight! Whoo! Im excited to be doing it over again cos now im actually doing something, not just sitting around counting days! lol

[Keli]

Morning all,

Porsche, fingers crossed for the perfect amount of follicles, looking forward to hearing good news from you. I want regular updates please, he he!

Hope, I have everything crossed for your little one, I would call your FS if I were you, can’t hurt at least.

Bec, that wasn’t your turn, it was a practice run hun (IYKWIM). I know your turn is just around the corner, I can feel it. You are totally allowed to be impatient and WANT IT NOW, that’s completely fair enough. Lol about the baby looking real at the 20 week scan, I am soooooo excited, thanks for being excited with me hun, just wish we could’ve been sharing this journey together, would have made it all the more special. FX’ed a painful AF is a sign of good things to come, strong linings is just what you’re after. Wow I didn’t realise you had been on Clomid for that long, that is ages hun, GL with the next decision you choose. PS: Thanks so much for mentioning myself, Tammara & Mez on your list, I feel very special.

Mez, how are things going with you hun? Have you had your morph scan yet? Are you finding out the sex? Hope all is well!

Pumpgirl, lol at your BB’s growing, he he! Wow they look like great HCG levels, maybe there’s two in there, he he. When will you have your first scan hun?

Oh Rhi, I have everything crossed for you and bubs, hoping and praying that you have a sticky little one in there. I had some brown blood early in this PG, I think I was about 6 weeks, hopefully all will be perfect. Maybe get some BT’s to check on your HCG levels, might help put your mind at ease.

Stick stick stick vibes and baby dust to all.
Xxoo

Hi All,

Jules - Hun, I have my fingers crossed, I really hope that this is just a normal pregnancy thing and bubs holds on tight, Keli's advice to get a BT seems like a good idea.. Are you getting a 7 week scan?

Hope - How are you feeling today? I hope that the spotting has calmed down and everything is OK

Kris - Fantastic you start clomid tonight, you sound super positive, FX this is your month

Bec - How are you today hun?

Shan - How are you going? Have you get your BT results back yet?

Keli - Funny you say that as I have this funny feeling there is two, either that or I am just trying to mentally prepare DH just in case (I think it is working as last night he said good night you "three"). I have a 7 week scan on 16 August so all will be known then. I feel like I need to try and hold back a little, am so so excited, but who knows if this one will stick, I have never had a BFP before so I have no idea...

I am sending positive thoughts to Hope and Jules, hope your bubs are both going strong and you ladies are feeling OK.

Hello to everyone else!!

Hello

Keli I hope you are right about the moods not being worse on 100mg, My mother's (who is also my boss) reaction was that double the moodiness isn't going to be tolerated, lol. I know what you mean about the rude reply, I am at the stage where that is what the next person to ask is going to get.

Liz happy birthday for last weekend, hope it was a good one. I drink a lot of water before blood tests but it still doesn't seem to help unfortunately. No I don't see Dr Watson, My Dr is in Toowoomba although if we have to start assisted TTC then I will probably be looking for a new one.

Rhi for you.

for everyone

AFM - Well this week just keeps getting worse out here. Started off with the septic system at our house blocking, thank god DH was there to deal with that but now there is literally S*** everywhere, lol. Lucky he is very handy and we didn't have to call the plumber. Also been feeling like I am car sick for the last couple of days.
I thought that was bad enough for the day but the worse was yet to come.
While getting morning tea my mother received the devastating news that her little brother died from a massive heart attack this morning. He was 2 days short of his 51st Birthday, my grandfather died of a heart attack when he was 51. So it has been a very emotional morning as every time mum cries I cry (hormones aren't helping either as I cry at the drop of a hat lately anyway) . Will be travelling out west for the funeral this weekend so I may be MIA for a while after today.

Sorry I am so doom and gloom lately, hopefully things will pick up soon and I can be happy shanshan again.

Shan

[Keli]

Oh ShanShan I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your Uncle, that is awful news. 51 is way too young to die. Sending you massive hugs hun!

[redgum]

Shan - I am so sorry to hear of your uncle's passing, my thoughts are with you and your family at this time and agree with Keli 51 is far too young! Sorry you are having a tough time right now, I hope that the increased dosage next month will bring you positive results. I agree about asking when you are going to start a family, to me it is the height of rudness, I started saying to people I am not sure I will have kids so they would stop asking, it's funny how it is always the randoms too - I think family and friends new better! Take care of yourself hun!

Jules - I hope that you are wrong about this one and that everything is fine. Take care of you!

Hope - that sounds positive, fingers crossed hun.

Liz - Thanks very much and huge happy birthday to you! Sounds like you had a lovely (albiet busy) weekend. I hope you were spoilt rotten. Boo to bad dreams - god it's a trip huh. I am still having weird, vivid dreams.

Big hugs to everyone xx

[lilminion]

Rhi, I'm sending you big hugs hun like bec said, we are all here for you if you need to talk or let it out.

Shan big hugs to you and your family, I too agree that 51 is way to young to go. Spending lots of time with your family will be good for you and your mum. Oh dear about the s*** everywhere, glad DH was able to deal with it.

Pumpgirl you're welcome

AFM I have been one spoilt wife, and no you didn't miss my b'day it was today, I can't believe it 25 today. And yes Keli it has been a good week without having AF here IYKWIM . Well I better go and get ready so we can go out for dinner.

big hugs and and to everyone.

[miss kris]

Happy Birthday Liz!!
