Morning Ladies,

Wow lots going on in here. Hope you are all well.

Bec, Happy Birthday for last week, sorry I missed it hun, you’ll have to change your signature now, he he! How’d you go visiting all the newborn’s? Must’ve been tuff hun. Are you having a BT this month to see if you have O’d? Is it too late to get one do you think?

N2L, know what you mean about nice to answer someone else’s questions. You spend your first few weeks in here asking questions it’s nice to feel like you are contributing, thanks again hun. Also KWYM about some people needing checks before they can reproduce, so silly that IVF uses have to and no one else done.

Mel, totally know what you mean about unplanned pregnancy. I was with my ex for 3 years and whilst I was on the pill the whole time he ALWAYS used a condom, without fail. We were each others first’s so it wasn’t necessary. Now that it has taken DH and I 3 years to finally get our long awaited BFP I laugh at my ex and tell him what a waist, it was never going to happen unexpectedly. As for the dry CM, we used pre-seed as it is supposed to be the only same lubricant, tried not to use it unless we had to though. PS: If you do get some only use 1cm or thereabouts, what it tells you on the instructions is WAY too much, you loose sensation. I always ‘rested’ after working out on the ‘workbench’ and I also put a pillow under my bum. Don’t know if any of that silly stuff helped but we did finally conceived after 3years TTC, 9 cycles of Clomid and a lap in late Jan this year, and I’d do it all again in a heartbeat. HTH’s! Also regarding OPK’s, what time of day are you doing them? I know it is inconvenient with work and all but they say between 2-6pm is the best time of day to do them, not the first morning pee as it is too concentrated. HTH’s. Are you having a BT to confirm if you O’d? Wow you sound like you have a lot on your plate with al this TTC c**p and your darling daughter, you must be a strong woman! How old is your daughter?

Shan, so glad to hear AF finally arrived. Sorry she is causing you grief though.

Pumpgirl, wow so excited to hear your scan went well hun, that is wonderful. I’m beginning to think that maybe Clomid can make your Hcg levels high, cos almost everyone that has fallen pg on this thread have had high Hcg levels and have thought they were carrying twins, I wonder if it makes a difference. Cant wait to hear how your 12 week scan goes, they are incredible. So what’s your DD then? No MS is still carrying on, just once a day though so not too bad now. I’m 22 weeks now so I think I’m stuck with it for sure. Oh well, no complaints from me!

Porsche, GL for the 28th & the 30th. Not sure if crampyness is normal for IVF but I had it when I fell pg, hope it’s a great sign hun.

Liz, GL starting your jabs. Glad to hear the app went well, good on your DH.

AFM: Not much to report, 22weeks pg now and getting lots of active kicks. Oh I can’t wait for all of you ladies to be pg and feel the same things. I feel another good month coming on so fx’ed!
