Hi everyone
Just though id join in im only 6 weeks post eptopic but was told by doc to try if i want so TRY i will. Pretty sure i o'd this month (been taking my homeopathics) and seem to be in a good 28-29 day cycle so:crossfingers: one tube will do the job. good luck everyone and :stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesgirl:
All we want for christmas is a BFP
Dusty, the concern is that it has been done several times before and inevitably people are only in the thread for two weeks or so, then leave and aren't back for a bit, meaning the dates constantly need attention. Plus, Sushee had to chase people all the time for their dates as they weren't sending them through.
So if you guys want to do it, can I suggest you PM me your BT dates and if there is reasonable interest we can do it (ie. no point putting one or two dates up there). Sound OK?
Hiya Dusty hun, Yippee on ET and welcome to our little crew in here.
Lulu - I am your cycle buddy atm (IUI on sat so am right there with you hun).
Sccoby - what CD are you at then?
Hiya Sharon, Wen, Alisia.
How are you going Missy?
Quick update to revel in not being on a trigger shot and feeling many of the same symptoms as last month so far. I am having some strongish pain/cramping and definite bloating already which is about the same time it happened last month. Had some freaky snot like sticky CM (sorry for tmi) this evening... trying desperately to stay away from DH who has tonsillitis atm too.
I am being very positive and meditating every day on the wonderful outcome to this cycle :)
Woooohooooooooooooo DW. Well done. Congrats hun. Now your in the TWW. Hope the time goes fast for you and you get your BFP hun. I know how much this means to you.
Im trying not to give up but just want some thing to let me know ((( sickness or sore bb))) im pg. I cant handle the wait. Ill try to get abit more pos++ hun. Thanks...xxx
minniemouse hello there. Yay another in the dreaded TWW...lol. Hope your handling it ok and you get your BFP too hun. Good luck..
scooby im sorry for your ectopic hun. I know how you feel. Ive had 3 with both tubes being taken. The other was on my overy and just died itself about 8 weeks or so. OB found it when had my C-section with DS. I wish you lots of luck hun and hope your get your bfp (( in the right spot ))) real soon. Good luck!!
Well all am abit tired and think ill lay on the lounge and watch Harry Potter and the Phoenix of the order...hehehe.
Night all. xx
hey MM i am wishing you loads of really big pg symptoms that you will of course be wondering why you wanted them in several weeks! enjoy the movie
welcome scooby, i love your username :) best of luck with your TWW hun.
thanks sonya, not sure what is going on with CM type stuff in your nose. gosh the things these drugs can do to us poor women ;) stay well away from DH if you can (poor DH though).
slyder/sush in the end it is up to you two. i loved keeping our BTs together as a list but i can see it would some work managing and also then explaining to people as they joined the thread to send them their BT details. what do the rest of you gals think?
dusty - WHOOOHOOOO well done on your blastie !!!! :confetti:
welcome minnimouse - best wishes for your IVF cycle. I'm a HPTaholic too so we'll be strong together and try to resist !! :grouphug:
Scooby - hey another Perth gal ! best wishes for your BFP this cycle, sorry about your ectopic. Go the homeopathics! A friend of mine highly recommended someone in my suburb who is a homeopath.. I might consider if we don't have luck this cycle.
Sonya - hey there !! Yay to some new AND old friends being about ! Lets hope we can leave here together too ! :crossfingers:
Missy - Hope magic things are happening in there !!!
Leesha - YAY to the 1.9cm folli's - hope your IUI went well today !! tomorrow you'll be 1 dpo, yiippee! hope the TWW flies for you and hope this is lucky #4 !
WenJ - sounds like you've got things well covered!! I would have liked to BD two days after IUI too but it was such a stinking hot day/night in Perth !! I guess I just have to trust that the docs got the timing right.
Slyder - hey there new moderator !! Thanks for keeping an eye on things.
I've added my BT date to my sig but am happy for it to go on the thread page if that's what people are doing.
Have a great week everyone!
That's two. If we get a couple more I'll do it as it will make it worthwhile.
Hi to everyone - hope you're all staying sane.
Thanks for the welcome everyone...let's just hope we all have very brief stays in here for the right reasons...
Sonya - great to have someone on the exact same timetable..GL..at least you might be able to sneak a test earlier then I can..
Deni - it's a terrible thing...was doing them everymorning...sometimes 2x. We LTTC girls get a little mentally challenged I think.
Missy - hope the movie was good. Never saw it.
Scooby - GL....
Me - day 4 and really trying not to think about it...(i did say trying)
Minniemouse....Oh I wish you all the luck in the world this time round:pray:
lulu you are testing the day before me. hugs to you hun.
deni, hope you are going well in your TWW.
hello fellow TWWers - lots of :stickyvibesboy: coming your way i hope.
all good here xx
What an awesome welcome, thanks everyone, if nothing else we will have fun and lots of support in this TWW.
OMG Missy 3 eps thats unreal and you sound so positive way to go girl :clap:
S rose i think im CD 17 i have been charting but i get abit mixed up. Its saying now that i o'd on day 15 so not sure whats going on, but the fact that it happened is an awesome start. I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much as i had so much trouble before, but at the same time i want to be very positive and this is definately the best place to do it.
Hi Deni, gooooo Perth, whos the homoeopath, if you dont mind me asking?
Minniemouse and Dusty good luck to you too
BFP for everyone this Christmas
Scooby - the homeopath was some woman in Belmont, I've forgotten her name but I can find out if you like.
I've been busily working on my TWW project the last few days - a baby blanket for my pregnant friend, it's a group project with two other girls. It's quite relaxing doing a bit of blanket stitch!
Any Melbournites out there? My sister's show opened last night - I would have SO loved to get over to Melbourne to see it!! It's a bugger having to work full-time. And the cost of flights - so much more expensive than flying between states in the US. I need a bit of sister time!! :protest:
I'm considering taking the day of my blood test off work on a flexi so I can distract myself as much as possible with shopping while I'm waiting on the result...
Relax Dust...you can be assured I will be testing before you me love...
the bugger is that there is no point testing till about Tues (ok ok knowing me Monday) because like last time the horrible Pregnyl needles will give me a false positive...
It's soooooooooooo frustrating...
Yeah Lulu!!! - I tracked you down here - just popping in to wish you all the luck in the world!!
Hey Dusty!!
Hi to everyone else - good luck!!
Hi Gargy...thanks so much...did post in donors the other day but soooo quiet in there. Hope all good with you.
Mumof5 - there u are..I didnt know where you disappeared to..thanks so much for your wishes...lets hope they all come true..
ahhhh sooooo sweet......this thread is bringing people back together and hopefully all of us onto those PG threads :dance:
yeah lulu i reckon you will definitely be testing before me. not sure if i will do it until next thurs at the earliest. but i hope to know by listening to myself before then.
deni, i would definitely recommend a day off for distraction - how can you work when you find out you are pg!!!
scooby, you are right missy is one amazing woman!
missy, hope you are doing ok hun, i have missed you today :hug:
sonya, alicia, wen hope the TWW is treating you the best it can :bluedust:
xx
Hi ladies.
Just a quick on to let you all know im going ok. Just been abit tired and busy with family. I think AF is on her way as Ive got a bit of cramps in the tum. Oh I hope AF stays away but if not im blessed already with 2 beautiful kids.
How you all doing. Hey DW missed you to hun. How you coping???
Take care all. xxx
Hi Missy. Wow, I totally missed that you have 2 little blasties on board!
I have everything absolutely crossed for you here!
All the best hun! xoxo
lovely MM sending you loads of :hug: and :bluedust:
i am coping fine. DH keeps chatting with BOB it is so cute.
hun we are pretzelling like crazy for you. don't give up PG symptoms can mimic AF. just ask my sister who suffered with pre AF symptoms for over a week after AF was due and then got her BFP (they were BFN up to then).
xx
Hi all
First off Sonya I totally missed you comment on how I was feeling. Sorry hun. Im doing ok. Feel like AF is on her way but trying to ignore it...lol. If that is possible. Just didnt want you to think I was being rude not replying. How you doing??
Awww DW I have to admit I to was like your sister with Melissa. I kept going to the toilet for up to 10 days passed AF due date but never tested. Oh I hope this is the same this time round.
How is all you other ladies going. I hope we get some good news. :)
Take care xxx
Thinking of you all, gals. We need some christmas BFPs!! nothing new this way.
A question for anyone on the luteal phase 1000iu injections: anyone else getting a spare tyre ring on belly below their bellybutton, could it be to do with the hormones, or am I to blame just gaining weight ? :lol:
Lol Missy, I didn't think you were rude, was getting the updates anyway hun... So hoping the AF symptoms are just tricking you and that you'll know about your bfp very soon.
Sharon - A monday is a great day to have off, especially given you'll want time to soak up the results before facing everyone. Besides shopping when everyone else is working is the absolute best ;)
Dusty - thinking lots of sticky things for you too hun... its so far to go still isn't it... grrrr, time can be so annoying.
Alisia: How are you travelling, did you get to IUI and beyond?
Thinking of you Wen, Lulu, Scooby.
I hope I remembered everyone, we are so many here now :clap:
Nothing new to report, cramping has settled and nothing much has changed, so waiting waiting for next week when things might start to develop for the better.
C'mon Chrissy BFPs
Oh thanks Sonya. Was going over the comments and went oh shoot didnt reply. I try my hardest to reply to everyone.
I hope you start to feel some thing real soon hun. We need some bfp soon in the TTC thread. Good luck hun.
Well still feel like AF is coming BUT have been abit funny in the tum (sick abit) and I think BB are alittle sore. Not real sure as it could be AF too. Oh I hate this waiting but not going to do a HPT. Ill just wait for the BT.
Hi to all you ladies and hope your all getting sick((( pg sick))) that is....lol. :hug:
i only just realised i forgot to ring the clinic today to see how my other two bubbies fared? how on earth did i not manage to think about that ONCE today ;)
sonya, sticky goey vibes back at you hun. how are you feeling?
deni, don't know about the spare tyre ring? did it appear overnight? are you feeling bloated?
missy i am tracking you down all over BB it seems and sending you loads of positive feelings. sooooo you are feeling a bit sick and sore. you felt this way when pg with melissa..... hmmmm..... it certainly is not over young lady until that fat lady sings but she is well known for not turning up so the vibes could be working :crossfingers:..... :hug:
xx
LOL DW thanks hun. Cramping kept me up abit last night. Really feels like Af. AWwww I hope not but you know you just know when AF is coming. Its that awlful feeling.
Hi all,
Sonya, yep I think you're read my blog so I won't bore with details but the first IUI thta hasn't hurt YIPEE! My cervix was open, which it hasn't been with the other ones, so I hope thats a good sign too! 1 out of 4 isn't bad I guess, hope it is the last for a while!
Deni, how are you going...? I am getting a spare tyre ring, but its more like being incredible bloated. I would LIKE to chalk it up to fertility treatment. I don't know if its the HCG that does it, I doubt it for me at least as I only have the one trigger, but maybe..... well, I'd rather say its the fertility treatment than me being incredibly lazy (even though that probably IS the case!).
dusty.... good one you for not thinking about it... at least it isn't consuming you right? Must have been a nice day to not think about it once.
Missy... :SAAF: :SAAF: Sending some big STAY AWAY vibes to you! I so hope you get a BFP and are like so many others who are sure AF is coming, and then find out they are pregnant.
To anyone I missed... Big STICKY vibes to all, and hope that we all get our BFP and don't have to come back here!
Me, well, my temps are high again today. I'm so impressed with this cycle. It's almost perfect (it would be absolutely perfect if i got a BFP!).
Is it too early for pregnancy symptoms? LOL yes I know it is, I think I am being a hypochondriac...
I cooked a roast lamb last night I when I got it out of the fridge I swear it smelt like something you find on the side of the road, BLEH! So I got my 13yo neice to come and smell it (and she grumbled about it, saying I was her guinea pig LOL! She's got some attitude thta one, and I love it! HAHAHA) and she said it smelt fine. So I dunno what the go was there. It tasted fine, just when it wasn't cooked it smelt awful (to me...). And then last night I got up to pee at 1.30am which is very unusual for me.
Like i said, I am a hypochondriac drama queen! I am going to cave this cycle and do a HPT I just know it. I didn't do one last time (the clinic did, but I didn't)... jusdt too scared of disappointment. Now I just want to know as early as possible. Maybe if I had done a test I would have got the crying over and done with BEFORE the drs office (instead I bawled my eyes out with my FS sitting there, obviously very uncomfortable, as I assured him I am ok, and to keep talking!). So I will be buying the best test, and testing BEFORE the FS appointment (maybe the day of, we will see how I go!).
Awww leasha Im not sure how early sympt start but every one is different. I really hope the smell of the lamb was because you are pg. Its so hard not doing HPT. I feel like AF is coming so im not going to bother with one. I wish you loads of luck hun :stickyvibesgirl:
DW how did you forget. You naughty naughty girl you. Well you havent heard from them so no news is good news I reacon. Ring today chickie.
Ellas mum I know. Alot of ppl have missed that ive had 2 embie on board hun. Its ok. I think going back to forward from TTC thread to blog you tend to miss some ppl. Thanks for the warm wishes hun. Sorry it took me a few comments to get back to you. Its hard keeping up in there. :hug:
hehehe, Missy, I think its WAAAAAAAY to early for symptoms! I am only 3 days sine the IUI, and I think 2 since ovulation... definately too early.
Still it was weird. I swear it smelt foul. Maybe I am coming down with a cold, messing up my nose?!
I know hun but nice to think its because of that....lol
Rest up and take it easy. :goodluck: coming your way hun. Come on we need some :bfp: in here!!!
Hi everyone
Missy everything crossed for a BFP remember AF symptoms can be like prg ones:pray:
Leasha: Excellent postive thinking and i reckon the prog starts flowing straight away as well as all the other stuff so you never know, i think we will be testing around the same time, which we were the month i had my ectopic, weird!!!
Deni i did get bloating with the injections plus if you tend to get alot of follies i think they can hang around awile cause I THINK only one pops out an egg ?!?!
Oh and i was testing same time as you last time i was here (with ep) and i remember looking at your awesome quilts.
Everyone in the TTW good luck and big sticky vibes (in the right place:lol:)
Me i dont know whats going on im CD19 but i have cramps almost like AF is coming which i hope not i was really rather pleased that i fell into such a good cycle straight away, i also had some nausea this morning. TOTALLY emotional i have been really good the last month or so and i went out to the shops yesterday and totally lost it, ended up in the toilet bawling because i saw a pregnant women and then had to walk past 3 prams with little bubs in them. What is with that??? I guess no matter how good things are you have your bad days, but it was sooo unlike me ( im really not a big crier, my friends tease me about it) so not sure whats going on there ?
Well i should be studying but had to get my BB fix so talk to you all soon
Oh scooby im sorry you broke down like that. Maybe pg symp and that might be why your so emotional. I hope so hun. Sending you loads of :stickyvibesgirl: your way. Take care and keep pos++
Hey girls! it's been quiet in here today. HOpe all of you at work or home managed to get some stuff done despite the excrutiating TWW !
Missy - big :hug: to you hun - hang in there - I'm :pray: really hard for you!
Dusty - hope you got good news about your two waiting embies
Sonya - you're not far behind me, I'm going to catch up on your journal - hope all going well!
Leesha - I must admit I'm also considering doing a HPT the morning of my BT this time. My BT this time is 5 days after my last injection will be - last IUI (bfn) my BT was 4 days after my last injection and I had a residual 10iui so I'm hoping it won't give me a false positive (only want a TRUE POSITIVE, that's the ONLY answer I'll accept! :lol: ) Hope the rest of your TWW goes as fast as possible!! Bring on those PG symptoms, I say ! your off sense of smell may be that sign! :crossfingers:
Scooby - :hugs: I hear you, girlfriend. Seeing pregnant women or bubs is hard. I try and look at it a different way, that maybe that pregnant woman really struggled to get pregnant and this is her exciting moment ...? But then I also see women with kids who I (making a judgement here) feel dont deserve them, that makes me sad.
WenJ , minnimouse and lulu- how are you girls doing?
Me- It's hard not to talk myself out of this... I have a very very very vague AF feeling which I'll admit only to you girls and not my DH. Becuase, I SHOULDNT have AF feelings while I'm on hormone supps, I would have thought? or maybe that's WHY i'm getting those feelings :dunno: Anyway, AF not due for a week yet... hope I'm just getting some implantation weird feelings going on.
My best friend, the girl I am making the pink teddy bear "positive meditation" quilt for, told me yesterday she's pregnant !!! I couldn't be more thrilled for her - she's been trying same length of time as me. She got married 5 weeks before me, so maybe we'll be 5 weeks apart in our pregnancies too. I'm pretzelling :crossfingers: like mad here!!
:hello: sorry to any girls I missed - hope you're all doing great !!!
Deni thanks hun im trying to hang in there. Have my BT monday so lets hope I get my BFP
Awwww I really hope you and your friend can be pg together. Its alway nice to be pg with a friend. congrats to you friend hun.
alicia, wow hun it is sounding very promising. keep that positive attitude up. and remember the rule, if you test early with a HPT, if it is BFP then yipee, if it is BFN it is too early to test.
scooby, how you feeling today hun? the whole looking for symptoms in the TWW does your head in IMO. it is an emotional time with or without the hormones.
deni, i am so glad for your friend and what a wonderful idea is your quilt! that is such a nice positive TWW distraction as well. seems your meditation is working hun.
MM, you are doing amazing hun. :SAAF: :protest: i hope the kids distract you all wknd, and i can't wait for monday i think you are amazing to be so strong. we are cheering for you!
how are you other TWWers going? :hug:
i found out that BOB's siblings didn't make the freezer so i was quite sad about that yesterday. actually i had a crap day and wasn't the nicest person to be around, but DH and a BB mate have snapped me out of it in the nicest possible way by reminding me i have THE BEST possible chance right here in me right now. i was getting a bit dispondent that i didn't have any symptoms but was gently reminded that that is almost always the case only a few days after transfer.
so i am feeling much better and looking forward to the wknd.
sending you all loads of :bluedust: xx
Alisia - sounds good good good hun... Keep that positive process going.
Scooby - Awwww hun, its so poopy isn't it, but at least you know you're not alone. I have certainly found myself doing the same mid tww.
Sharon - how exciting that the blankie worked, must be time to plan one for yourself don't you think? ;)
Missy - not long to go now hun, hope the AF symptoms have eased off to give you some more hope of the BFP.
Dusty - so sorry about the siblings hun... Must be hard to lose some while having bob on board. Good for you having a crap day, hopefully it let off some steam ready for the arrival of the bfp for chrissy.
Howdy Wen, Lulu, Minniemouse, hope you guys are doing well.
Had my 21 day BT this morning, and omg it was so easy, straight into the clinic, no queue and bless the nurse but she got a vein flowing first go, my little veins have been stubborn the past couple of times and I have had some great bruises. So relaxed again... so I am hoping that this is another omen of things to come. In addition of course the jabbing pain I am currently having in my lower right front/side iykwim. I am getting my hopes way way up this time, and am trying to remain calm. Failing miserably of course lol... here's hoping all this positivity makes things right in all of our worlds.
Hey girls,
I *almost* gave in today at the chemist when I saw HPTs but I decided to follow DH's advice and not test, just wait for the BT. Lets face it, whatever the HPT result tells us, we're either thinking "oooh I hope that's REALLY a positive, can't wait for the BT" or, "oooh, it's negative but maybe the HPT wasn't sensitive enough, I'll wait for the BT" :lol: we've all been there !!! AARARH I can't stand this waiting. Still a week to go...
My b'friend has told me all her pg symptoms: No symptoms until AF due, then (TMI WARNING!) very strong funny-smelling CM at 4-5 wks, yellowy-brown tinged CM, gagging/reflux started at the 6th week. Not interested in coffee (and she's an addict!). Still no sore BBs at the 6th week. and, get this - Very hungry and very ho*ny!!!!! :lol: There's no secrets between us !!
So now I'm imagining feeling "kind of funny" in the belly... :rolleyes:
Sonya - hope those jabby feelings mean something special !
Missy - :SAAF:!
Deni, what AF symptoms are you getting? Alot of women swear AF is on the way but they end up with a BFP so you can't rule that out.... I hope it's a good sign....
Dusty, hang in there mate, you are doing so good, I wish you all the best!
Sonya, I'm having my CD23 BT on Monday (it will actually be CD24) and am hoping I don't forget! Are you still getting that jabbing pain? That could be implantation, could it not? I hope so!
Missy, how's things moving along for you? Any symptoms or thoughts?
Leasha, I know a few friends who got turned off raw meat smell when they were UTD so it's very possible you could have a real symptoms there! Cross Fingers!!!!
To everyone else, I hope you are doing just fine and that we all get our BFPs this month! That would be a great record to achieve huh?
As for me, I know I"m reading too much into it but my BBs aren't sore like they usually are pre-AF, usually around 7dpo they start getting tender but now it's 8 dpo and nothing! I hope it's because my body is going through implantation changes! he he he.... no other symptoms to report but not expecting any this early... I'm not testing until 15dpo which is next weekend, I don't think I could handle the stress if I test early and get a BFN... I only want to see 2 lines!
Wow you ladies sure know how to talk.
Im sorry if i miss anyone ill try not to.
Ok, Me first. Still no AF, cramping comes and goes, Im off to the toilet all the time looking for af but nope nothing, Bit off again today but not as bad a yest, Now bb abit sore. Hmmm I just dont want to think im pg incase i jinx myself. Monday is the big day.
Dw you know im always thinking of you hun and Im praying like crazy for you and your little BOB. :hug: to you and sorry again about your little blastie not making it but hey, you have one with you now. That is a blessing. xxx
Oh sonya i know. Its not long now. As long as AF isnt here then that is good right?? Congrats on your BT going so smoothly hun. All is looking up for you hun and getting exciting. Good luck :goodluck:
Deni well done on not getting HPT. Its so right what you said about them. I was going to get on yest but decided not. Just will wait for BT. LOL @ you and your friend. Close alright...lol... Its good having friends you can talk like that. Good luck to you hun. Come on you can do it. :goodluck:
Oh Wen I really hope implantation is happening hun. Good luck with the HPT for next weekend. :stickyvibesgirl:
Well all have to check my blog now. night all..xxx
Hi all you other wonderful ladies and hope your all well and feeling pg
Leasha - Nice to see you again.. so to speak. Hey - never know how early individual hormones kick in..
Scooby - the one time I got pregnant I had all sorts of weird cramps which I also thought were early AF - dont be fooled my friend....
Deni - it would be sooo great for you to catch up to your bfriend...:pray:
Missy - hurry up Monday - would love for you to get the ball rolling for all of us please..
S-rose - after all the needles and BT we have gone thru - isnt it sad when really good one makes us happy?
Dusty - hope Bob is happy over yonder and you are levelling out a bit.
You girls are so good holding out doing HPT. Me - well right now there is no choice as I have Pregnyl in my system till Tuesday. It's killing me. Right now - day 7 and sadly dont feel anything. Wish I did.....
