Crafty I agree with Ferrals don't give it way just yet. it will be Murphy's law lol.
Sunbeam Grr What a frustrating thing to find out. We don't ask much do we. My DH takes Goji berries, zink, Alovera juice, pumpkin seeds & folate so I think in your case 1 little pill isn't too much to ask.
Alice OMG what a coincidence. What are the odds of that? How bizar. I don't know anyone who has fertility dramas so no one understands. I guess now you'll have a bigger support network?
Not much happening here. I haven't O'd yet. Have no idea what's going on. I'm guessing I'll O late now. Gosh my body is just so messed up right now. I've still got the wretched brown spotting and quite frankly it is driving me insane. Not because we can't DTD but because I'm so over it IYKWIM.
We have our nurse coordinator appointment Friday 18th to go through IVF and then our appointment with Dr De Ambrosis the following Tuesday to get our IVF schedule. This cycle can't go quick enough. I just want to move on now.
I wrote a huge long post and because BB logs you out if you take to long which P#SSES me off i lost the lot i usually copy my post in case i get logged out i can paste it but this time it didnt work.
Anyway i couldnt be bothered to do it all over again i am off to work i just wanted to say i am finally in the tww egg popped this morning a lot of right sided cramping consistant with U/S and CBFM we BD SUN MON and this morning and will get one in for safety measures tomorrow but i really hope this month works so i can avoid IVF.
I am sad seeing all the familiar faces in the pregnancy threads they were in the M/C thread with me and they have all moved on some are even in the parenting threads it's been to long and about time i moved on out of here.
Hope everyone is well and hanging in there we will do this all of us.
I totally agree Ferrals not many of us left in here since last sept when I joined and you been on here before me !!!
Don't seem fair makes you wonder what your doing wrong or rather what they did different to me !
I been trying to stay positive this month but its not working I really feel like every time we DTD its just a waste of time and energy and the Macca well not working for me in the right way lucky for you its working well ! I think my problem is I am trying too hard and I have to stop feeling so hopeless I seriously think I need to forget about being a mum again I can't carry on with my life feeling so damn sad inside and living on hope ! My FS apt is next week and quite frankly I think I am going to cancel as when it comes down to it you need money to get some help and we just don't have enough for IVF we spent over 40,000 dollars in the last 2yrs getting a visa and flights and moving over to Australia to make a new start for our kids and well we managed to get a deposit for the house but thats it now we have a mortgage to pay in a few weeks that I know is more than my rent so really can't see the point in going to the apt knowing I can't take it any further !
Sorry I am so negative its not like me but I feel so defeated !
Thank you all for your support about the donor daddy thing. I guess as a lesbian I thought I was beyond having to deal with male stupidity.....I was wrong!!! Any way I have enlisted the help of donor daddy's partner (who is a really lovely, responsible guy) to get the pills and make sure Dumb Bum takes them.
Ferrlas - I do understnd that the spermies would have been made a while ago but that maybe if he'd been bothering to take his pills we might have a few million more. I'm still hopeful one or two strong ones would have made it.
Porsche - sorry there's still no sign of your eggie. Only 10 days till your appt. with FS so not too long. Isn't waiting all we seem to do?
Crafty - I don't know about the baby stuff. I personally feel better having it out of my house. Anyway this will be your last bub so you deserve all new things. How cool would it be if you go to your FS appt only to fine out from your blood work that you are UTD
Alice - That is wierd about you and your friends all having fertility probs. Who knows what might have caused it. Of the 5 of us in my Uni house 3 of us (that I know of) have had fertility issues.
Ferrals, I understand you wanting to join them - hope you can really really soon. Sounds like you covered all your bases for this month so here's hoping this TWW is over quickly and with a BFP at the end. It's mixed feelings for me of being thrilled for them but missing them at the same time and I have only been on BB since Feb.
Sunbeam - maybe not so unusual after all? I guess there is no point dwelling on it and there does seem to be more problems now but maybe we also talk more about it now, I dunno. Glad DD's partner is helping out with the pills and good luck with this TWW too.
Hi Iona! How's it going?
Porsche, you and Crafty will be having your FS appointments at the same time. I know the feeling of just wanting to start - going a bit batty here at the moment (three hours into cleaning my house...)
I know this is awful, and I know what it is like to live with that sadness and feeling like you just want to get on with you life, but I really believe you can do it! You can!! Don't give up!!! It's always when you think things will NEVER change that they do. I understand you must feel very stressed with the move and I understand the financial burden of IVF too so I can't say anything there as only you know how things are in that regard but you have nothing to loose by going to your appointment - at least get a professional opinion before you give up eh? Come on lovely Crafty, my SIL is into her second IVF and she is 45 now so if she can do it, so can you xxxxooo
Ferrals it stinks doesn't it that almost everyone has moved on into belly or baby groups. I have been in m/c thread since May09 and I think in the 12month plus group now longer then everyone else. Somtimes it feels like unless I leav I'll never get out of that group.
Crafty I agree with with Alice on the FS appointment. You have nothing to loose going and seeing him anyhow even if you don't want to head down the IVF path. Maybe some clomid will make you O more eggs and increase the chances. Just a thought but I don't really know what I am talking about.
Me just waiting for AF CD28 definately coming sooner or later and then waiting for my appointment. 30days today I see him and start the paperwork etc for IVF. Just need to start exercising. Got 4weeks to go so should make the most of it.
Thanks girls your support and advice means a lot to me !
Have had a big chat and DH agrees we should go for the initial consultation and see what our options are if any, IVF will be a definate no as we do not have the funds for that but maybe clomid or IUI depending on what they say so trying to stay positive until next Thursday and have an open mind and just see what he has to say.
Well DTD again this morning so should be covered now as today is the big O day and had sharp pains in my right side 6am this morning before doing the deed so hopefully the spem gets to meet the egg if there is one there of course !!! anyhow gave it our best shot so now the waiting begins .
Alice thanks so much for your pep talk about your SIL I guess at our age people don't really understand why we even trying anymore but some of us just need to fill the gap so to speak one last time ! I hope your apt is not too far ahead of you and then maybe we can be in the other forum together with growing bellies !!!
Ferrals how you doing ? its gonna be a long long TWW and I have an apt 8days past ovulation so too damn eary to test dam !
Crafty-your not wrong there AF due on the 22nd for me so 12 days seems like forever but on the other hand i expect not to be pregnant so just waiting to see if i make it on the next ivf cycle list.
AFM-Just waiting watching my savings dwindle with all the bills coming in i can't wait to get my tax back to put some moola back in the bank.
Not real optimistic about being pregnant i have this visual of DH sperm banging away headbutting my eggs but not able to get in STUPID MORPHOLOGY!!!!!!!
Hi ladies! Hope you don't mind if I join you in this thread... I know most of you from TTC after M/C or Loss thread but think its time for me to move in here with the Long Timers....
For those that dont know me, here's a little of my story.... I fell pregnant first try in June 2009, DH and I couldnt believe how blessed we were as I had watched my older sister battle with endo/ PCOS and IVF and always assumed that we would have to go down that road too... anyway our world fell apart on the 10th of Sept when we went for our 12wk scan only to see our lifeless little angel on the u/s screen, needless to say we were both absolutely crushed and shocked as we had no idea that our little baby had fallen asleep inside of me.... I have suffered from deep depression since and isolated myself from a lot of people. I find just when I have enough strength to be social, I get smashed down with another pregnancy announcement from friends and as Im sure you all understand, it hurts to damn much
Anyway we have been trying since Sept with no luck, we have tried all we can for this stage... chinese herbs, acupuncture, pre-seed etc... we started seeing a new FS last month and I had a lap, hysteroscopy, dye study and d & c two weeks ago... The doc found that I have Stage 3 Endo so Im hoping that was our problem and things may start to work now its been cut out but the endo was on my bowel/rectum area apparently so Im not sure if it was the problem as we dont see the doc for another 6 wks! DH has had his swimmers tested but we are still waiting for the results!
I just dont understand why things arent working after I fell pregnant 1st shot last time! I am young, fit and healthy, it just makes no sense to me... they keep telling me its stress but I have friends that have been thru the same experience and managed to fall pregnant within months of their m/c.
Anyway thats my story in a nut shell....
Hi to all the ladies that I do know... Murray, Ferrals, Alice, Crafty, Sunbeam, Matthews mum, porsche....
