Hey Issy, how's things? Not long now til you're due for AF. Any signs that she is coming? Have you done any early tests?
I've been shopping all day. Its DD's 3rd birthday next Friday so been buying her presents all day. DH came with me and he hates shopping so I didnt enjoy myself and just rushed with what I bought her, oh well she'll still like what she gets.
Are you doing anything special for mothers day? DH is working so there's nothing special planned for me. He hasn't even taken DD shopping for anything yet so i'm not sure i'll even get anything.
Better go, have a great weekend and enjoy mothers day on Sunday. Good luck and hopefully AF wont show up!!!
How's things? Hope you are well!!! I see by your ticker that nasty AF arrived, I am so sorry. I know what it's like to try and try and try and get a month after month. I'm that this will be your month.
I just thought about mentioning some tablets that DH and I were taking the month I fell pregnant. A girl at work put me on to them and hey maybe that's what worked for me.
The tablets are called Maca Power and you can get them from any health food shop. They are in a white bottle with orange label and black lid. They help fertility and lots of other things as well. Give them a try and hopefully you'll have some luck. I was on clomid as well and I think I waited til after I finished my 5 clomid tablets before I started taking the Maca Power but DH took them everyday for the month (well that's when he didn't forget). It's worth a shot though.
How was your Mothers day? Hope you had a nice day. It's my DD's 3rd b'day tomorrow, can't believe she is 3 already, goes so quick doesn't it.
Better go and cook dinner.
Take care hun and chat soon coming your way!!!
Great to hear from you, sorry its taken me a while to get back to you, I have been a bit snowed under with work at the moment...yuk.
Yes, AF arrived early for me this month, only 2 days early but early none the less. I guess I shoud be grateful as I would like my cycles to be closer to 28 days, rather than 33 days,...33 days is such as long time to wait
Thanks for the info on maca powder, I have actually heard of it just recently, someone in the TTCAML thread mentioned Im pretty sure, I have no idea what it is, but Im def going to give it a try. Got nothing to lose right? I am willing to try anything. I actually have a feeling that my bfp's is just around the corner....well, I can dream cant I? Got to stay positive, only way to go I reckon. Ill let you know how I go with the powder...off to the health food store tomorrow for me!
Ohhhh, your DD is turning 3....I love 3, its the cutest age, a bit testing at times, and very cheeky moments, but so lovely, you start to really see their personality at this age and they are soooo cute! Hope the b'day is a lovely day for you all. Have you told DD that she is going to be a big sister, or is she too little to understand yet?
How are going with everything now? Hope your m/s has gone for good, and you are enjoying the second trimester...I really liked the 2nd t/m, it was just so nice not to feel so tired and sick all the time. Its the best 3 months out of the 9 I reckon.
Well hun, take care and Ill let you know how I go with the maca powder
How's things going? Hope you're well. Did u end up getting the Maca? I'm it will work for you. Get your DH to take it too. My DH hates taking tablets so he only took 2 a day I think but I was taking 3 a day. You can also get it in the powder but I got the tablets coz they are way easier to take.
Surely this has to be your month for it's so annoying how some girls just have to look at their partners and fall pregnant. Very frustrating for girls like us who take forever. Although I'm sure you said you were like me and fell preg without trying and straight away with your DS as I did with my DD. I honestly thought coz it happend so easily then that it would be a breeze falling pregnant again, boy was I wrong!!!
I've got my first midwife appointment on Monday, and everything will be ok. I still haven't told many people I am pregnant. I am still so scared to tell people, I am dying to tell them though. I reckon I'll be scared whether I tell them now or in a months time. People probably have guessed by now anyway.
I've got a hens night to go to next Sat night. It's a pub crawl, dunno who I will hide not drinking from everyone coz usually I'd be drinking heaps.
I see you are CD 14, have you o'd yet? for when you do.
Sending you lots of not that you'll need it coz this is the month you're going to fall pregnant!!!
How's things going? I hope you are well. I see you are on CD33, have you caved and done any hpt's? I'm you get a because you deserve it!!! Did you end up getting the Maca? Maybe you'll be pregnant and maybe you've got the Maca to thank, I reckon it helped me, I tried for 23 months and it was on the 23rd month that I took it and fell pregnant so you never know but I reckon it helped.
I go for my scan on the 30th of June and we'll most likely find out the sex. Still seems so far away. I am 18 wks tomorrow can you believe? It's going quick but I am huge already so I'd hate to see what I am like in another 20 wks, oh well I don't mind as long as my bub is healthy.
DD and I might be flying to Melbourne next week for about 10 days to visit my sister. She had her 2nd child on the 29th of April so I am dying to meet my little niece and to catch up with everyone.
Better go.
Take care hun and chat soon
Sending you lots of
It sooo good to hear from you, im so glad everything is going so well for you. I cant believe you are nearly 18wks...thats amazing. Your scan is so close, I cant wait to hear what sex bubs is...just quietly, I have a feeling its a girl
And congratulations on the arrival of your niece How lovely that you and DD get to take a trip to Melb to meet her, its so exciting when new babies arrive, we certainly have had quite a few this year, its been lovely.
Sorry its taken so long for me to get back to you, I have been posting in ttcaml but have been a bit slack in their too, very busy with work but its all slowing down now, so I have more time up my sleeve.
AFM - Well, I caved this morning and POAS, and it was a .....but, it was a light one, and my experience with light bfp's have all ended in m/c so im not getting too excited at the moment, as I fear this one will end the same way. I know its early, AF was due today, but I have to be cautious, just to protect myself I think. I that im wrong and that everything will be ok but ill just wait and see. If I dont get AF in the next few days, ill POAS again and see what it says. Ill keep you posted on that one, I hope I can come back and give you some good news
I didnt use the maca powder this month, by the time I went to buy it I was already on cd12 so I thought I would just wait until next month. I hope there wont be a next month for another 9 months IYKWIM! We shall see....
Well, thats it for now, Ill write again in a few days and let you know how I go. Thankyou so much for thinking of me hun, huge for you and your big growing belly...how gorgeous!
Congratulations on getting your that's fantastic news. I do understand how you are feeling though, worrying about things going wrong etc. I have everything for you and I am everything turns out ok. Please let me know how you go when you do another hpt. I am so excited. I know how hard you've been trying for another bub so you really deserve this little one to stick!!!
I am still very cautious about my pregnancy. Everytime I tell someone I sit there and think god I hope I'm not jinxing myself. Did I tell you I bought a fetal heart doppler? I listen to the heartbeat everyday so it is very reassuring.
I'm glad you said you think I am having a girl. I initially thought I was having a boy but in the last week I've kind've changed my mind and think I am having a girl. The gold wedding ring test keeps predicting a girl and they say that babies with a higher heart rate of about 140 - 160 bpm is a girl and my bub's heart rate is always in that category. Also a few people have said to me that maybe I can only carry girls and that everytime I've miscarried they may have been boys. Who knows though, I guess I'll find out in a couple of weeks, that's if bub's legs arent closed.
Well I'd better go, please keep in touch and let me know how you get on. I will be thinking of you!!!
