Oh Skye, Congratulations......you have totally made my week. After having the worst week possible full of doom and gloom, your little ray of sunshine has put the smile back on my face.
I'm so happy for you. It's fantastic news.
A little bit of hope for the rest of us in here to join you.
Here's to a happy and healthy 8 months.

Skye - Congratulations, such fantastic news!!!! We seem to be getting some BFP's in here. Let's keep them rolling for 2006!!!
Bambi - Welcome. You will find lot's of support from the lovely ladies in here.
Well af over for the month. Short and sweet for the first time ever in my life. Off to the beach for a couple of days tonight. Can't wait to take some long walks with my dh along the beach. One of my favorite things to do!!
Take Care lovely ladies,
S
Wow. Skye, I am ony new to this forum here and i don't know you, But a big congrats from me and i hope all goes well.
Lil Chookie, Thanks, Support will be nice. Everyone is just so nice.
I hope everyone is doing well.
Thank you so much everyone! I just hope this lil bubba sticks for the next 9 months!
Bring on all the BFP's ladies!!!
Hi Ladies,
Just wondering if you can squeeze an extra member in here???
DH (30) and I (25) have been TTC since Oct 04, due to a history of endo we started looking into things, and that resulted in me having a 2nd lap operation to remove endo again in Nov 05 and also to do dye tests etc. We have set a 6 month deadline from the lap to conceive naturally (apart from endo everything is normal) and then we will be on to IVF. I am freaking out a little :boggle: and finding it hard to stay positive, but I am sure you all know what that is like!
Look forward to chatting with you.
Sam
Hello everyone and congrats again Skye and Magic!
Welcome Bambi and best of luck with everything ... the girls in here know how hard it can get and they are your best support.
Welcome Sam ... your situation is a little bit like mine. I had an operation to remove endo in December 2004 and my very wise and wonderful doctor said that we had to make the most of the six month window of opportunity before the endo grew back. I didn't end up conceiving naturally but we had one IVF cycle in July and things went very well so I just wanted to reassure you that what can seem scary now is sometimes the answer to your problem. Fingers crossed of course that we hear some good news from you in the next little while! Also if you do need to go through IVF, this forum is full of many good people who have done this before and it is a source of so much comfort and support. I wish you well in your journey.
Janee - best of luck for your appointment in March and I wish you well too. Don't worry about "bringing people down". You need to have somewhere to talk about these feelings for your own sanity and what better place than BB. I hope things take an upswing for you soon.
Shan, Little Chookie ... thinking of you girls.
Looking forward to some more good news in here very soon.
Love,
Mel
Thanks Melbo.
Hi Girls
Mel - I'm okay...how's things with you....
Sam - A big welcome to you. You'll find heaps and heaps of support in here. Good luck for the next 4 months....hope you get your BFP
Bambi - How are you going???
lil_chookie - how was the beach (or are you still there?) I guess i'll know the answer to that question soon enough. Either way, hope you had fun....
Leis - hows things with you. You've been a bit quiet lately....thinking of you...
Janee - how did you go with your BT? Hope you're okay......
Jane, Didge, Inspiration, MargOz, Michelle, Skye - (and everyone else too) thinking of you all and sending you big hugs..........
Me - Well i'm STILL bleeding. 34 days now and i am soooooo over it. Some days is disappears and i think great - finally it's over, and then an hour or so later, bang, it's back again........I've got an appointment with the clinic tomorrow arvo to see what the hell is going on. They've said since the beginning of the month for me not to worry about it (along with the normal crap of every woman is different and it's quite normal blah blah blah) but i am really starting to worry now. Surely bleeding for 34 days straight cannot be normal. I'm actually quite scared that something is really wrong with me. I'll wait an see what they say tomorrow but if they tell me just to wait it out until it stops then i'm not going to be happy. I didn't even bleed this long when i had my M/C.
Oh well, that's my vent for this morning. Hope all you lovely ladies are having a fantastic weekend.
Love Shan....
I just noticed my previous post.............
YAY to me for hitting 50 posts. I know to most of you that it isn't a big number, but when you've joined other forums in the past and were so bored that you didn't even make it to 5 posts, it just goes to show how great BB is.
Now to just go platinum........it will happen soon....i promise
Shan
Hello ladies.
How are we all today?
Me, Well i am due to Ovulate in the coming days, Although no CM about. But we have DTD the last two nights anyway just in case. But as i have mentioned in a post elsewhere, It hurts to do anything and i don't know why. weird.
But yes me, Just still waiting for Ovulation time to come, Nothing interesting, Still plodding along and not trying to worry about anything.
My email is stuffing up, So i have to post this here for now.

Hi all..... Thanks Shan for your thoughts....alas I got the dreaded phone call yesterday afternoon that I wasn't pregnant, but I knew anyway....Got the horrid AF in the early hours of this morning, so feeling like sh****t. One more round of puregon and then back to talk to the doc about IVF.....I'm so mixed about it, sometimes I think yes let's do it, and other days I just don't know.....
I do hope everyone else is well. Sorry I'm so useless at personals, I will try harder next time.
Sorry to hear AF arrived Janee.
Chin up, things will look better soon.
I know how you feel honey, It is really hard to pick yourself back up every month. My heart aches for another baby, but i am so scared every month.
Janee.. keep your chin up.. and think seriously about the IVF. I remember when we were about to start IVF and I used to look at all my injectable drugs in the fridge and i would think "I can't believe I am doing this to have a child" But from those that have had success with IVF, unfortunatley I am not one of them, they will tell you it was all so worth while....
Sorry once again about the BFN, but stay strong my dear..
love and hugs
leis xx
Leis and Bambi...you guys are so sweet.....thank you for cheering me up... I'm actually doing OK considering...DH and I have our wedding anniversary coming up next weekend and we're going away for the night, so I'm actually looking forward to that and will be able to have a drink to celebrate as well now, so it's all good.... hope all are having a good day.
Hugs
Jane
Mrs Mac - I hope you get some answers about the bleeding, you poor thing
Janee - so sorry about AF, I hope that you enjoy your anniversary and take it nice and easy
Sararms - have you been around, I have been wondering how you went the other day with the HSG (hope that is correct), not too familiar with that procedure as I have only had the dye studies done via lap one time and am also having that done again this week
I have had a quiet weekend, I am just taking it easy before Friday and trying not to think about things too much
I hope that everyone is well and coping well in the heat
Take care
Janee, shame about the BFN,I hope you do enjoy your anniversary night out. I've learnt over time that that relationship has to be the strongest.
Shan, Oooooo that bleeding, hope it gets sorted out. Got no idea at all. That is crap!
Welcome to Bambi & Sam. Hope you pass through smoothly onto the pg forums.
Take care
I haven't been here for a couple of months and what a beautiful beautiful suprise to see SKYE is preggers! \:D/

Round 2 for me on Wednesday!! The scientist will be calling me Tuesday night to tell me what time to be in on Wednesday. Because my eggs were frozen 3 days after ovulation, they have to time it right.
I am going to try not to get too excited as I have had more than enough let downs in the past few years!
There is a few of you that have been let down lately, and I just want to give you all massive cuddles and you will be in my thoughts and prayers!!
Wish me luck ladies!!
Lots of love from the heart and soul coming your way~!!!!
Hi ladies
HSG was pain free amazingly and all looks ok. Will find out on Tues when I see the consultant and to find out when to start IVF again!!
How did the lap go jane?
Bambi I did welcome you but for some reason the post did not come up so WELCOME and I hope everything works out for you soon
Congrats Skye that's amazing. Jealous though 8-[ xxxx
Now I've got some privay I can post properly....
janee I'm sorry about the old AF! I know how awful it is when you realise it's coming and there's nothing you can do to stop it. As for IVF, when I first started I was really excited. I thought "YES!! Now I'm going to have a baby, at last" Unfortunately I have not had any luck as yet but I am hopeful that I will be one of the many women it works for. the only advise I can give you is to get ready for it now, in terms of diet and fitness etc. Apart from the good it does you, I always feel at least I'M doing something to help the IVF rather that relying on the drugs and an embryologist. Good luck with you decisions and the future.
Mrs Mac I don't understand your bleeding either, and getting it checked out is the best thing to do. My mom tells me that she had a lot of trouble conceiving me, and that she took Clomid. BUT... she says she couldn't even get going on it because she bled for 13 weeks solid. She had laparoscopies to find out why and everything In the end it stopped by itself and she got pregnant the following month with yours truly!!! She says it was her bodies way of getting rid of something or sorting itself out so try not to worry too much :hug:
Congratulations on your bfp Skye - well done.
Definately a bfn for me :cry:
Thought for one moment that we had an early bfp as a line appeared three hours late on a HPT on day 12post EPU, but every test since has been negative.
Am gutted and heartbroken.
Suzy
Suzy - I am so sorry to hear that. We get so worked up each month thinking that this is the one, but then each month we get so let down that it hasn't worked. What are your plans now.....my thoughts are with you.
Sararms - thanks for your little story. I't's given me a little bit of hope. I've been thinking myself that my body could be just sorting itself out. It's been bleeding now for 35 days, but yesterday and today much lighter, so hopefully it will be gone soon and we can jump back on the band wagon. Fingers Crossed you can start IVF again soon and get your BFP.....
Starbright - Hello to you. I've only been here since November last year so we haven't met yet......HI......Good luck for Wednesday and fingers crossed you get your BFP.
Janee - So sad to hear of your BFN. Enjoy your wedding anniversary and I hope DH spoils you rotten. DH and I have ours coming up on Valentines Days. Wow 3 years....seems like he's always been in my life. Well to tell you the truth, he actually has as we went to school together but didn't start seeing each other until 2000. Weird how things turn out hey......
Mandy - Good luck with Oing. Hope you catch that eggie.......
Hope all the rest of you girls are having a good day. I'll drop by later on this arvo to let you know how i went at the clinic. Hopefully they have some answers for me regarding this bleeding.
Love and Hugs.
Shan
Hello all you lovely ladies in here.
Me, well I am suppose to be due to ovulate tomorrow, but i haven't had any CM at all this month. Except for a few days after AF, it was just pink CM. You might not know as yet, When i got AF, it was really heavy for two days, then nothing, then just spotting for another four days then pink CM for about 3 days. Weird, i know.
But since i ovulated last month i have had these twinges and thought i was pg, but tested -ve. I still have them, And They got worse during AF and they are still happening to today. I just don't understand.
I have been spooo tired lately and wanting to sleep all the time, but i can't cause of i have to stay up with my 3 1/2 year old.
I have been reading and i understand that the cervix should sit up high when ovulating, but it is still down low. And i have felt around (sorry-TMI) and my cervix is actually sore to touch, that is why it has been hurting to DTD. Does anyone know what this could be?
Help. I am totally confused!!!
Sorry no personals today.
Hi Ladies,
I hope you don't mind me joining your group.
I'm new to these forums and have been reading your posts and have chatted to Jane (j_girl).
Its really quiet something to hear about you all and to know that I'm not alone in this, as it so often does feel like that. I can see why so many of you have continued to post in this forum.
Huge congrats to the ladies that have recently had BFPs :smt038
Good luck to everyone else with your tests and procedures that are coming up.... :luck:
Congrats again to Sheree & Skyelar, hoping to c alot more BFP's so u can graduate from here very soon... baby dust to u all... :-)
OOO, I like my new username, no more j_girl for me
I must have a bit of a brag, since I have been posting on here I have taken on everyone's advice to get as fit and healthy as possible before IVF and I have lost 3kg's. Seeing I had 18 to lose I am rather proud of myself, I figure it will all help and certainly wont hurt the dreaded PCOS that's for sure.
Glad to hear that your HSG wasn't painful Sararms and hope the next appointment goes well
Bambi - have you been for a checkup lately? Might be worth going to see the doc and getting a referral to a good gyno if you dont already have one. I get lots of midcycle pain and it doesn't help with the baby dancing one bit. I also have had months without CM and they tested me and some months I dont ovulate, they are also the months where my cycle goes out of wack. I hope this helps, I dont want to sound all doom and gloom but it is certainly worth looking into.
I hope everyone is well,
Welcome to the forum Shan, I am sure you will feel at home, the ladies here all wonderful and supportive.
Thanks Jane.
To be honest, I am scared of Dr, and i was terrified last year when i had my pap smear.
I am trying to see if i can figure it out before i go. I think that is my biggest phobia. Silly i know, but its true.
As far as i have always known, i have ovulated. Weird. It only hurts when i touch inside.
Thanks for your help.
I am just so confused!
Bambi dont be afraid, might be better to find out than to be in pain? Perhaps DH could go with you and be your support :hug:
Thanks Jane. Might look into it.
Starbright - good luck for Wednesday hunny :luck: I hope everything goes to plan.
Sararms - I'm glad to hear your HSG was pain-free and looks good.
Suzy - :hugs: for you ... I am so sorry to hear about your BFN's.
Mrs Mac - how did you go at the clinic today?
Jane - well done on losing 3kgs =D> I should follow your example LOL.
Bambi - I know it's scary, but I think it might put your mind at rest to have a check-up from your GP or gyno. I hope everything's OK.
Well, I'm up to CD20 on my second cycle of Clomid, and no sign that I've O'd yet ](*,) I have a referral for a CD21 blood test tomorrow, and then an appt with my gynae next Monday. DH has to have a repeat sperm analysis this week, which he's not fussed on, but it doing grudgingly. I told him to stop whinging ... at least he gets an orgasm out of his .. my HSG wasn't that much fun lol.
I'm so disappointed that I don't seem to have ovulated this cycle. Apart from DH's swimmer problems, I really thought that the Clomid has sorted out the problems at my end, but it appears not :(
Cherie,
hopefully your BT finds that you're just about to O and you and DH manage to catch that little egg. Did you O on the first round of Clomid?
love
sushee
hi everyone. Congrats Skyelar and Magic!! Here's to plenty of us following in your footsteps real soon.
Transfer for me tomorrow..wish me luck!! Does anyone know when they start thawing the snow bubs?? I am petrified I am going to get a phone call telling me none survived!! HELP!!
Hello ladies!!
Mrs Mac - Not good to hear the bleeding is sill there. How did the appoiment go? Congrats on the 50 posts, I made it to 100 and didn't even notice!!
Bambi - Try not to be scared & worried ( I know it's hard), might be best to go to the dr's and find out whats going on.
Janee - Sorry about the dreaded call. I totally understand your feelings about where your at with the IVF decision. I don't think there is an easy answer unfortunately. Have a wonderful wedding anniversary, a bit of husband & wife time away is sometimes just perfect and helps things that haven't seemed clear, alot clearer.
Starbright - Welcome Back!!
Suzy - Sorry about the BFN.
sk - Welcome, you'll find lot's of support & kindness from the lovely ladies on here.
Hello there ~Jane~ (I like it!!) and big congrats on the 3kgs!!! So you should feel proud of yourself, you go girl!!
Cherie - Hopefully the BT will show you have O'd :crossfingers: It's so frustrating when we think our bodies have started functioning how we want them too & then they go back to their old ways. LOL @ "at least he gets an orgasm out of his" !!!! I believe I have used that line with my dh before!!!
Everyone else hope you are well.
I had a lovely weekend with my dh. It's amazing how a bit of a swim & some lovely walks can make you feel a million dollars. CD 9 for me already today, after such a short tiny af I feel like I have cheated somehow!!! Lot's of lovin for my man coming up!!!
xox
S
Shez - depends on clinic and timing - sometimes the morning of transfer or day before - so that they get transfered on the right day - that means if they are day 3 embryos - you will be 3dp ovulation at transfer - or some clinics like to see if they divide overnight.
How many snowbubs do you have ?
Wow ~Jane~ losing 3kg is great!! Congratulations. Can you send some of that weight loss stuff to me too??? I have been trying the weight loss thing again (gym, food diary etc) and just seem to be stuck on EXACTLY the same weight. DH says my muscle mass is increasing and not to worry so it is off the the gym today to get measured. Here's hoping something has changed :crossfingers:
CD 10 so the OPK is in use to see what is happening with my poor confused body. Here's hoping.
Good luck to everyone. One day I'll get better at the personals but I swear I have pg head without the pg!!
Hey Trish.. thanks for the reply.. BTW I love watching your ticker move along in PG LTTC!! I have 5 snowies and the transfer is tomorrow afternoon. DH doesn't know if he will be able to make it before I go in so I'm scared if none thaw and they tell me when I get there that I will be by myself!!
