    Possum- Sounds like you have a big decision to make darl between work and TTC, I can't offer you any advice on it darl as I have no idea what I would do in that situation either. Great to hear everything is back on track for you again though, great news darl. And it's so lovely to see you back in here.
    Melster- Try to just sit back and relax I know it's hard especially when your DD is unwell, I hope she is feeling better soon darl. I know exactly how you are feeling right now I'm stressing out of my tree here with the in laws and all the flamin uncontrolable kids staying here at the moment. I have now had a headache for going on 5 days and it's just from being so over tired and worn down running around after everyone and getting meals ect ect. I can't wait to get my humble little home back. My next DR appointment is this Friday at 9:40am to get my BT results and to see if I have even O'd as yet. I have my doubts though. It's now CD20 for me today so AF should be due in 6 days time or less. Hope you get to O soon hun and catch that egg, FX for you this month.
    AFM- Well it's going to get horribley quiet in here and I'm hoping I get some answers soon. So I'm guessing if we want to know how the ladies are going do we have to PM them or can we ask them in here how they are going??? I do send all you ladies that are PG all the luck in the world with all your PGs and I can't wait to hear all about your BA when they come around. I hope I get my BFP soon so I can join you all in the other thread, or maybe I will just stalk you all in the other thread to keep up to date with how you are all going. So you can all be my TTC stalkers and I will be your PG stalker.....lol......

    minniemouse - i understand what you're saying and it's probably a good reminder to us PG ladies to tone it down a bit.

    this forum is so incredibly supportive that i'm also finding it hard to move on even though i'm not TTC anymore !! plus a little disbelieving that i'm STILL pregnant. FX.

    Clairesmummy - GL with your test results. we're all impatient ! but at least you've started the process and things are happening !!!

    Melster - praying for you to O very soon. and hope your daughter feels better, how awful for her and you

    Melster: my understanding is the cm should be creamy then wet then ewcm at ovulation so sounds like you are almost there if you are the wet stage !

    thanks to the girls who have sent messages understanding what i was trying to say

    clairesmummy: there is no reason the girls can't still give us updates here, like dory used too :-)

    minniemouse...ever since my period i have had this broken up cm like tiny dots, but only really when i check and not much...but yes it is watery but only when i check.....we will soon see..i will check on my break with the digi..my last period was late 4 days so maybe i might o again late...i hope not

    Although they do say that the cervix goes high and you cant touch it with "o" but that hasnt happened yet either...

    Melster: Sorry DD is sick. HOpe she feels better soon. Sorry for stressful week. If you're getting light results on OPKs i guess you'll 'O' soon. It's probably different for everyone but i found i got no second line at all when i was far off 'O' and a faint line only a day or two before a +ive OPK.

    Clairesmummy: I'm counting down for you to get your peaceful house back and to get some answers on Friday...but i'm also hoping for a sneaky BFP. 5 days of headaches and slightly sore boobs (i think you said you had these?) I'm suspicious! You know i've been on here for a few months now and always got scared everyone would vanish and there'd be no one but me TTC... but it never seems to happen even if it does briefly go quiet for a bit. But there have been an unusually high number of BFPs lately so it might take a while to have a busy forum again.

    Glen glen: wishing you all the best. Happy to see you and others pop in to check up on us... and we'll stalk you all in the PAML thread too! And hopefully join you soon.

    Hi Ladies
    Well im back after being MIA for about 3 weeks. Had the show for a week and then just been super busy now my computer at home is playing up so Im at work and have to keep this short.

    Will catch up with you all very soon with more persies.

    Seems there have been a few changes and a new thread created. I hope the PG girls that have moved onto this new thread are all doing well and I wish you all the best! Will be sad not to have you in here. But we can certainly pop in once in a while to your thread and see how you are going. This wont be the last time we communicate. I do think the other thread is a good idea because there were a lot of you LOL that have achieved your dreams of being PG. But as I said will be sad not having you around, you were all so lovely and supportive. Can't thanks you all enough for your advice, support, encouragement and care!! Take care and all the best!

    AFM ~ Im currently doing needles and have my 1st scan on Fri to see how my follies are developing, fingers crossed and next week will probably have EPU, provided everything going well. Getting excited now :-)
    Good luck to all those TTC in here xo

    clairesmummy: fingers crossed you get some good news when you get your results friday and hopefully your bfp is only days away !

    Melster: hope your opt shows up positive tomorrow, i ovulate really late in the cycle and it is so frustrating !

    Possum magic: here's hoping you are able to reach a decision you are comfortable with for now, how is your new job going ? are you enjoying it ?

    Loops: welcome back ! how do you find doing the needles ? i saw something on the news last night that said they are working on a new drug that you only need to inject once not multiple times, that would be great by the sounds of it ! fingers crossed for you for your scan fri, i hope it shows lots of growing follies

    afm still no af and day 48 SO annoying, last cycle was 35 days so i don't know what has happened to this one !

    GlenGlen- Hope everything is going great for you darl, sending you lots and lots of sticky vibes darl. Thank you for the good luck wishes darl, I appreciate them alot.
    Melster- Do you suffer from O pain at all? That maybe what's happening with the cramps you are getting darl, DR told me you can start getting them a few days before you O, FX for you.
    Possum- How are you going darl? Hope everything is going well for you. Thank you so much for counting down the days with me...lol....I have 3 days to go to get my humble little home back to it's peaceful self....lol...I would love to get a sneaky BFP darl, that would be great I haven't been keeping track of everything this month like I usually do as I have left it to see what the tests come back saying. I'm not even sure if I have O'd or not have had CM Since CD8 a +ive OPK at CD12 and Cm has gone creamy since CD17. Had O pains on my right side at CD9 and CD14 then O pains on my left at CD16, CD17 and CD19. DR told me yesterday that was a bit long to go for O'ing from my first pain at CD9 but she did say it's not unusual to O from both sides usually you release your egg from 1 side then a few days later the other side can release an egg also. I told her twins do run in my family as my mum was a twin. She told me I could end up with more than what I'm asking for.....lol.....so she told me to also be prepared for that.....
    Loops- Great to have you back again, hope all goes well with your IVF darl, and you are a braver woman than me there is no way I could give myself a needle I find it hard to give it to my horses when and if they need them.......FX you get your BFP this month darl, sending you truck loads of baby dust and sticky vibes.
    Minnimouse- Thank you for your good luck wishes darl, I'm going to need them. I reckon I will be a total freaked out mess Friday morning from when I wake until I get my results, I'm starting to stress out big time about it already, I'm so scared they will tell me there is nothing they can do for me or tell me I'm going through menopause or something drastic. Like I always do I always assume the worst, not that I like that about myself. I will be sure to let everyone on here know as soon as I get home though. Is there a BFP coming your way darl is that why no AF or is she just an irregular visitor for you darl? Hope you don't mind me asking you don't have to answer if you don't want to.

    Clairesmummy: remind of what blood tests they have done ? im guessing progesterone for one, why are you thinking they are going to tell you you are menopausal ?

    i don't know what is going on for me, definitely not pregnant, i only want to try with clomid (which i will start when af arrives), it is very frustrating and annoying because i just want to get going, i got my script for clomid filled today so im hoping that gives af a big hint to get going ! i have pcos so i guess that is what is stuffing me up

    Minni- My DR was getting them to check all hormone levels including my Thyroid in the BTs. She rold me they get more accurate results if they do the BTs 7 days before AF arrives, so we worked it out that I usually have a 26 day cycle so BTs were down at CD19 now I'm just hoping we took them at the right time. Don't know what makes me think it would have anything to do with menopause as I'm only 34. Guess it's just me I always expect the worse when it comes to tests. So what is PCOS???? And what's the symptoms of it ect ect if you don't mind me asking.....I'm not at all in any way up to date with much when it comes to do with TTC problems IYKWIM. But being on here is certainly opening my eyes to alot of things I never even knew about.

    clairesmummy: pcos is poly cystic ovary syndrome, im not good at explaining it so have a look at this link Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) (i hope i have done that right). for me i have irregular periods, acne problems, insulin resistance. i also have high prolactin levels (can be elevated in pcos but mine is higher than that), this tricks the body into thinking it is pregnant so you don't ovulate, it is not known why mine is higher than normal so im on regular medication to keep it low enough for me to ovulate, so i have a number of things going against me, when i was pregnant with my DD i developed a pituitary tumour (on my pituitary gland in my brain) that had a haemorrhage at 30 weeks pregnant (that was fun). i am also on metformin which is a diabetic drug to help manage the insulin resistance. my other issue is i have also had half my thyroid removed a few years ago after a lump was discovered (concern was it was cancer but it was benign). so a fair bit going on, aren't you glad you asked !! lol

    Loops, welcome back! Hope follies growing beautifully!
    Clairesmummy: I was reading your post and thinking 'yup, yup', makes sense, 'O' pains CD 9 and 14. then i got to the bit about pains CD 16- 19 and was a bit stumped! Unless you ovulated late? I've been finding i have a lot more mid cycle pain since my m/cs. I had one month with five days of pain both sides. Can't explain it...

    Loops...good luck hun..i hope everything goes really well..you must be getting excited..

    Minniemouse....i hope you get af soon so then you can start you're clomid

    Clairesmummy...normally if i feel anything it will be a sharp pain for a couple hrs on the side im going to o...i dont normally get that period type feeling. I had a little more CM but not heaps..see how i go today.
    Im sorry you're having a tough time at the moment. When do the rellies leave? i hope you can get through today ok...thinking of you. Try and stay really positive, as positivity can bring good things and good thoughts...i know its probably really hard tho and you just rolled you're eyes at me LOL LOL LOL....but it does i swear!!!!!

    ATM...well i have been up all night with my daughter, then up since 4am since drunkin idiots smashed my letterbox and cars and stuff up the street and were fighting....then hubby was TOO TIRED LAST NIGHT TO BDANCE and we had no kids or anything !!!!!!!!!!!! so we did it this morning instead....but i said i cant stop my cycle coz you're tired and you better have not made me miss my chance!!!! think he was grumpy with me...then the step kids come home today until Sunday (when there supposed to be with there mum)......so i am a bit grumpy and tired this morning..and hoping the stress isnt effecting me...

    Im wondering how much my cycles have changed since the m/c..and if they will go back to normal...i was normally 28 days with no issues...now i have a feeling thats changed...still got a dull ache but its barely there.......think it might be emotionally with me...
