Bec - Next scan will be next monday with OB/GYN. Well be 9 weeks 6 days so very close to 10 weeks 4 days when we found out we had lost the last one. So I'm really anxious now. I've stopped up chucking but i still feel off. I dry retch sometimes so I'm a little worried about easing symptoms.
We'll book out 12 scan on Friday 15th of October when we'll be 11 weeks 3 days. We can't wait untill 12 weeks because DH is going away for work for 3 weeks and we'll be about 14 weeks when he's due back. So too late for our scan.
DH is a bit all over the place from the 12th October so we have to squeeze the scan in between trips. Just keeping a low profile and hearing of M/C isn't making it easy that's for sure.
Hi everyone
Sorry I have been MIA lately. Work and life have been a bit crazy lately.
I won't try and do persies as I am not up to date with everyone.
Just thought I would update on me.
Did POAS at 14DPO and BFN. AF arrived at 3:30am the next morning and had me lying in a hot bath for 4 hours to try and ease cramping (had to go and buy a wheat pack as I forgot to pack mine).
I am currently CD9 and on the last try with clomid. If I don't get UTD this cycle the Dr wants to investigate further with surgery (not sure what surgery as he hasn't elaborated yet), although this is unlikely to happen as we are going to be struggling financially if it doesn't stop raining.
Sorry to sound down in the dumps but work and the weather are starting to get to me.
Hope to hear about some BFP's on here soon to cheer me up.
HI LADIES! Wow! Its been AGES! Since i have been on here, have been flat out!!
SO i finally got a period on the 10th Sept, so i did ovulate eventually but we missed it!! So i took 100mg and now am on CD19 i think. So blood test on thursday to see if this worked. I am thinking positive and hoping it is! This is round 3 so maybe 3rd times the charm! Please?! lol!
Kris - Best of luck for cycle no. 3. Great you finally O'd. FX you catch the egg this month
Shan - Oh hun, you have such a rough time with AF. Sounds like a good idea your FS is going to do some further testing. Have you ever had a lap before? Do you have endo as well - I can't remember??
Bec - How are you going on your natural cycle. Is next step IVF or IUI for you? FX you don't have to get to that...
Porsche - I hope you glide past 10+4. Good luck for your NT scan!! I think it's totally fine to do anytime between 11 - 13 weeks (I was 11+6).
Liz - good luck catching the egg and I hope your TWW goes very quick!!
Tamara - good luck with everything, mustn't be too long now
Keli - I can't believe how fast your PG has gone!!! I hope you are feeling well?
Hello to all you other lovely ladies out there, I am desperately hoping for some BFP's soon... Good luck!!!!
Sorry I have been MIA - got back from holidays on the weekend and spent it all doing washing & getting organised for the daily grind. Back at work now & there are some upheavals :S so that is playing on my mind. I haven't had a chance to go back to the old thread yet, but I wanted to say Hi! to everyone, hope you are all well. x
Hi girls!
I just wanted to let you know that my appointment today went well, all test results came back normal, including hormone and insulin was just a touch high. Now have to take primulot to induce AF and we start jabbing next week! Woohoo, I ca't wait to get started!
I'll pop back in tomorrow and do persies.
Hope you're all well!
Bec
Just a quick post from me - feeling a little down today.
AF arrived on Sunday night Today I am CD4 so about to start my last round of clomid. My FS doesnt want to do any more after that. I am definitely ovulating on it though which is a good sign I guess. The next step for me (I think - unless the FS specialist changes her mind) is an antagonist IVF cycle. To be honest I am not sure DH is comfortable with the whole IVF thing (long story) so it's a BIG fingers crossed for this last clomid cycle. Otherwise.....not sure what....
Shan Shan & Miss Kris - It looks like a few of us are on our third round of clomid together this month so hopefully it's the magic one for all of us!
Anyway, that's enough of me feeling sorry for myself.
Nothing2lose Have you had your tubes flushed? There is always IUI to try as well before IVF. It cheaper on the hip pocket and it's not as invasive as IVF.
Bec that is great news about you app. Oh the fun of jabbing yourself, what sort of cycle are you doing, IVF or IUI?? sorry can't remember if you have said anything. goodluck with it all.
Rhi it is good to hear from you again and hope you had a lovely holiday.
N2L poo on AF showing up I was so thinking you were going to post your BFP this cycle. And like Porsche said, IUI is alot cheaper than IVF and alot less invasive. And IKWYM about DH's not been comfortable with IVF, I am thinking I am going to have an argument with my DH about IUI soon. I was wanting to do the full IUI cycle next time if this cycle doesn't work, and he keeps saying but "nothing is different, all they do is squirt it up there instead of us DTD". I know it shouldn't matter but I just want to move forward, as if we do have to do IVF then I want to start saving, due to us not having an ubundance of money we will have to stop doing everything and save for a year or 2. (sorry for that little rant). I have everything crossed for to to get UTD this cycle so you won't have to worry about it all.
Well I am day 3 of my TWW and already I am dying to do a test. This cycle has been quite different to my first assisted cycle, it took more jabs to have my follie the right size and last time my boobs were killing me after I had the trigger shot and this time there is nothing. Hey I'm not complaining as it is so good not to be in pain, but man I wish I knew what my body was going to do. Hope all of you lovely ladies are having a good week, yay it is nearly over.
I am not even going to attempt persies, it's been so long! It didn't help that I lost the thread, but also everything has just been so crazy! I hope that everyone is okay?
This cycle has been better than last, I am far more relaxed and not as full on in thinking I am pregnant everytime I feel a twitch! I am CD18, but no idea if or when I ovulated, so can't say where I am really. I have had some light pink spotting when I wipe, which I think might be related to ovulation, but can't be sure. Other than that, just hot flushes and headaches in the last couple of days (not sure why the headaches). Basically I am just waiting for AF this month, rather than worrying about where I am in the cycle etc. I guess I am trying to pretend I am "normal", IYKWIM?
Am new to this thread my df and i have been ttc for 16 months now and have been on clomid for the last 4 months 50mg days 5-9 and what a whirlwind that has been with all the side effects i got from it. Am back to the fs next week to see what we will do from here. Not sure if we want to stay on clomid anymore or move onto something next as my cycles are still all out of whack. Am on cd30 wanting to test but holding off as my last cycle was 35 previous to that was 34 then 37 so a little hard to know when to test as we are over seeing a negative result.... Just seeing if anyone can give me a little insight into what i could be expecting next after clomid....
