Hi guys,
Well, I am feeling much better today after my counselling session yesterday. I really am feeling positive about things atm, it may take a while to get the family we want so much, but we will get there in the end and it will all be worth it. I saw my pg friend last night and had a really good night. It is hard with her being pg, but she is a great friend and I can talk to her about everything and she is a great support. It will happen for us, and with each day that passes we are a day closer to our baby.
SP - :hug: sweetie. So sorry that you are worried now. Bloody doctors - as if you have not been through enough already! I know it is difficult not to worry, but it is done now and I suppose all you can do is wait. One BD sess probably only has a small chance of conception (as my dr says - there is only a 20% chance of falling each month), and it would make sense that you are less likely to fall pg with a clot due to implantation issues, so there is a high chance that you will not get pg and will not have to worry about a high risk of m/c again. I am thinking of you sweetie.
satya - I am not sure what all the hormone levels mean either. I hope your scan and follow up appointment go well. The waiting is soooo annoying, and I can hear you on how hard it is to have all these appointments with FT work. I am finding it so difficult with constant BTs that need to be done at a certain time (and each time I have spent an hour in the waiting room!), not to mention specialist appointments, and this month I will also have to go for a scan as a part of the tracking cycle, but will hardly have any notice as the timing depends on my BT results. I am a lawyer, and as if there isn't already enough time pressure on me! I think I will have to tell my boss soon, as it is just getting too obvious, esp with more BTs, an appointment and a scan this week. When are you going to test?
sharon - good on you for not testing! Let us know how you go tomorrow.
jen- sorry to hear you are feeling bad. It must be hard passing your EDD. My first angel's EDD is coming up, and I am not looking forward to that day. So sorry your chart is confusing and you are not sure what is going on. That really doesn't help things. I am thinking of you and I hope your cycle straightens out soon :hug:
Hi to everyone else, I hope you have all had a great weekend.

Hi everyone hope you've all had a great weekend.
Bun - I'm trying not to test at the moment as I'm probably just imagining my symptoms. Mind you, I almost threw up standing on the beach watching the waves yesterday afternoon & my stomach was doing flips constantly last night while my step daughter kept bouncing the bed while we were watching TV . I just don't get stomach complaints so it's certainly making me wonder. It's two weeks now since I think I O'd but I'm really not sure about that either. I may sneak out & get some tests on my way to work if I have time (don't want to get my DF hopes up for nothing).
Anyway I'd better get ready for work.

Good morning girls,
Hope all had a great weekend.
Thanks for your thoughts Bun. I am so happy you are starting to feel more positive. We will all get there in the end.
SP- :hug: I am thinking about you.
Sharon- Well done for not caving in and testing. Let us know how you go
Satya- Good luck if you test today
Well i have given up temping for the rest of the month. it is upsetting me too much to see such a variance daily. I am still spotting and still cramping and feel a little nausea. When I was pg I had an incredible craving for cheese. The symptoms I am having now are just like the last couple of AF. So I will wait for the good aunt to arrive and start again next month. 2008 will be our year.
All have a great Monday

Morning everyone
Oh Bun, it is so good to hear you sound so much more positive and that the relationship with your friend has taken a big step forward.
Salt - I've scrolled up and down to no avail - when is AF due so she can rid you of that sodding clot?? I do feel for you as I'm STILL bleeding 13 days after the D&C, sorry if this is TMI - but it's red/brown slime not enough to go onto my pad but just there when I wipe - I have NEVER bled this long before, not after childbirth, not after my last D&C, just not ever. I feel like my body is taking too long to get back to normal and it worries me what that means. It's so frustrating isn't it.
Sharon - any news girl??? I am SO rubbish at waiting for anything!!
Satya - how can you be SO patient??!! I'm crossing my fingers for you as well, it does sound quite promising doesn't it and the timing would be right!!! Hoping for good news for you xxx
Jen - my special thoughts are with you - I passed my first m/c EDD in February (and at a time when I thought I was pregnant) and it was still so so hard. I then went on to have a missed m/c the following month so now I have an EDD to get past in February & March next year - am SO praying I will be SAFELY well pg by then.
Hi to everyone else, here's hoping you had a good weekend
Love
Alex

Well ladies, quite a big temp drop this morning and a BFN! When I compared this cycle to my other non-pregnant cycles it is quite similar, with the very slow and stead rise, then a large drop 1-2 days before AF shows up, so I am guessing she will be here either tomorrow or Wednesday. Also, after looking at my chart, I am starting to think that maybe FF got it wrong and I actually O'd on CD 17, which would be within my normal O pattern and since the last BD was 4 days before hand that is probably why we aren't pg this cycle. And if that was the case then I would only be 11 dpo today and my longest LP was 12 days (not counting my D&C cycle).
Anyway, have a really busy day today so no time for personals, will be back on tonight.
Have a great day everyone.

Hi every-one,
I have put my FF chart on if you would like to have a look. It is telling me I O'd on the 12th April, I would have no idea cause not really that in touch with myself, if you know what I mean. You guys have really helped me though & I am very appreciative of that, Thanks :grouphug:
We have been flatout BDing so can only keep :crossfingers: . Chart says I am 4 DPO and now I just can't wait another 10days, but I will do my best. I will try not to test prior to AF due date.
I have been reading all the posts however I am sorry I have not sent back personals.
Sorry to see Satya leave us but glad to hear she will pop in now & again. Hopefully we will see you in another thread soon. You have all been so busy & I am lost again(not that suprising is it) I will do personals at a later date.
Bun-You are such a strong for person for being there for your friend & it just shows her how much of a friend you really are :hug:
Will catch you all again soon, I really wish there was no-one in this thread, that would be the best news ever wouldn't it?
Lots of wishes & :bluedust:

Hi all :)
I need your help! AF is finally here (CD 37) after m/c. I'm only spotting at the moment, but I'm sure by tonight it will be in full force.
We are going to have one last, futile attempt at conceiving naturally before doing an FET in June (have to pay the darned car rego in May, so it's putting things back a month :( ).
I've set up FF and stocked up on OPKs. With FF...even though I'm spotting, do I count today as day 1 or wait until full flow (like you do with an IVF cycle??). With temps, are they best recorded first thing in the morning??
Sorry for the questions, we have never conceived naturally with DH. But going on the theory that some woman are fertile after a m/c, and DH has been taking zinc tablets, in hope it might help him a little..well, no harm in trying, right??!!

Hi Lisa
I have always counted Day 1 as my first 'full flow' day although my spotting and fullflow are rarely more than 18 hrs apart.
(Can I hijack this bit and ask: if I am counting the days until AF, do I start from the day I started to m/c naturally *and heavily) or from 4 days later, when I had the D&C????)
Re. temping - I think I am right in saying that you need to test first thing in the morning, BEFORE you do anything at all - so literally wake up and lean over for your thermometer (don't get up, drink anything or BD!!!:lol: )
I am so rubbish at temping as I am all over the shop all month so sending you lots of love and luck :goodluck:

Alex, sorry to hear you are still bleeding 2 weeks after your D & C - have you been for your follow-up appointment? I would count from the D & C, I think.
Hi everyone else, nothing to report here (CD5) but have been following all your posts.

Thanks Sally, I thought the D&C as well, will check when I have my 2wk check on Thursday. I have just been to have the little ones Hep C imms done and the nurse said I may still be bleeding due the the fact that I lost so much blood before the D&C and it may be because my haemoglobin had dropped so low, so that reassures me a bit!
Oh and Lisa: re. temping - forgot to say try and temp at roughly the same time each morning, and bear in mind drinking, stress and sleeplessness can all have a bearing on temping (although I don't know how ie higher or lower or what!!!:dunno: )
