Trying to Conceive After Miscarriage or Loss April 2010

jellylove-i'm sorry,if af doesn;t come in the next few days,i'd test again using fmu.I think if you don't get af but still getting a bfn,cycle day 1 would have been last week,you could always try opk to help to know when you about to 'o'.Ferrals & craftymummy talk about a handy gadget to predict 'o' as well...murraycod-when all these tests are done & resultsare in,you'll feel much more positive about may...tegam-all the best for the future...mildez-men have a language all to themselves ,sounds to be like he wants to give it ago but putting up the "it wont work anyway" for protection,let us know what you decide so we can be here for you...

Matthew's Mum - Thank you! Think I'm going to give it a couple of days see what happens xx

Hello my lovelies!
Hope you ar all going well. We managed to see a little heartbeat yesterday. I had a little cry and it is still sinking in. Slowly adjusting to the thought that there might actually be a baby at the end of this.

For avid bejayjay news followers, my cervix looked SO hot.

Was thinking of you Kit, and wanted to put my name down for the Pram of Justice, when a heavily pregnant woman told me that her latest paranoia was that the baby would be born on April Fool's Day. Seriously? WTF woman?

Love to all :grouphug:

Mildez- I agree with Matthew's mum, it sounds like a defence mechanism, he's probably just trying to protect himself. Don't give up hope, its hard keep your chin up especially when your loved one is feeling down but you still have as good a chance as anyone with ivf, you will get there in the end xx

Audax-I have worked with pregnant women and new mums for a long time and I have heard everything, I think people lose perspective, esp if its been an easy ride for them but its still :wall: Hey- good for you to hear that heartbeat, must have been thrilling xx

hi ladies!

Audax - ah thats sooooo exciting that you saw a little heart beat! how far are you now? about 6 or 7wks? your doing great love! enjoy it all xx

matthews mum - another day down, another day closer to finding out! im praying for you lovey! i hope that bfp is really really close!

jellylove - yeah its not over til AF is here, my fingers are still crossed for you xx

tegam - good luck with everything, im sorry to hear your having a hard time xx

loops - hello lovey, sending you AF vibes! hope she comes soon x

ami - ah thanks for the web address! Ill have a peek!!! thanks! hope your well, let us know how you bt goes, thinking of u xx

crafty - we'll be testing buddies again! had a temp dip this morn so think im o'ing today!! counting down the 2ww! cant believe this time is here again already!! lol to the pav! hahahhaha!! love it! DH brought the cream hehhehehehe! now thats just rude!!!! naughty! lol

hiya kit - testing on bday huh, lets hope its your best bday present yet... ! hope the charting is going well xox

afm - well i had a big temp dip this so i think that means im o'ing today or just about to?? Does that sound right? sorry, only my 2nd mth of charting and it didnt dip last month! still havent got a positive OPK but they dont always work for me so im a little unsure so were just b'dancin everyday so we dont miss anyhting! cervix is very high and soft!
as for the egg's..... well we gave it a crack! (hehe get it!?) it was a little messy but so hilarious! cant believe DH managed to seal the deal with all the laughing we were doing! so i guess this shows how desperate i am! :shhh: even DH barely battered an eyelid when i suggested but he certainly chuckled!! and no... i will never be able to look at an egg the same way...hehehhehhe!

night girls! xx

audax-thanks for the update,glad things are going well....t-hopes-i didn't think you'd go through with it!good for you though,hope it's all worth it....saffy -how are you tonight?

OMG THopes I seriously did not think you would go through with the omelette making last night!!:lol: I guess if it works, all of us teasing you will have eggs on our face!:rofl:
Your DH must have laughed his butt off.....shame!!!!!!

Audax, oh honey Congratulations how exciting to see your little beans heartbeat!!
I think I will bawl my eyes out when I get to see my babies heart beat when I fall PG.
Darling I am thinking of you all the time praying that everyone is healthy and strong XXX

Nice to see we haven't scared you off Saffy, as you can tell, if you don't have a laugh every now and then here you will sure go mad!! I hope you are well XXX


Hmmmm well I just got a knockback!!!;) Gave it a trim and all today, oh well his loss !!!!!
I am so excited, I just got a message to let me know my NewMoon dvd is in early, so I can pick it up in Mildura when I get my bloods done tomorrow, see?!? Perfect timing!!

well,just went to the toilet & there was a streak of blood,no nausea ,boobs a little sore not like they were though,i'll ring nurses in the morning...

Mathewsmum-are you sure it's blood and not a pink colour because the crinone pesseries can do that i had pink cm while i was on them and FS said totally normal.

You girls are a crack up that's what i like about this thread we can be so down in the dumps one day and then talking about the funniest things the next.

Crafty-i think maybe the CBFM isn't picking up your hormone levels as they could be a bit low but that doesn't mean you wont O it's ashame because it doe's make it so much more accurate just keep using your other signs and BD every other day.
I had a little issue with a dud test stick this morning the two lines were so faint you could hardly see them the E2 line is reallllllly faint but the LH line should be dark or darker than yesterday but it didnt show up at all and i had already pressed the button so i had to use that stick i didnt have time to do another but i had a big temp drop this morning so i will O tonight or tomorrow anyway i will do another wee stick this arvo to be sure that this mornings stick was a dud.

Tegam-sorry to hear you have to leave but i understand that ttc can be very stressful all the best for the future.

Murrycod-cool we are surging together you wont be BDing though because of the upcomming biopsy will you? what a bummer we could have been poas together never mind i don't think i will get utd this month so i will hang out for May and we can fall pregnant together and our babies will be march babies the same month we lost our little ones so maybe that can bring something positive to a month that we associate with heartache.

Jellylove-:hug:

Audax-Good to hear that all is well you will be fine i just know it.

T-hopes-I am having my temp dip to so looks like we will be busy getting busy lol.

Murrycod-i just went back over all the post's and saw you got a knock back OMG!!! what is up with your DH Men! they want it all the time whinge when we don't give it to them and then knock u back when it's on offer and they say they don't understand us women.

AFM-Had a temp drop from 36.5 down to 36.02 so i am busy keeping DH busy will be back later.

ferraks-hi,the colour was red,it was a streak ,just that one time,nothing this morning.Going to go ring nurses now...

hi everyone, spoke to the nurses,they said it could be an implantation bleed(i thought of that,but thought those sorts of bleeds were discoloured)asked about the other symptoms fading,she doesn't think that it was the progesterone suppplements(probably other hormones playing havoc)& if it was the progesterone, symptoms with that can come & go depending on other hormones.

MM loving thoughts and sticky vibes sweety, let us know what happens xxxxxxx:grouphug::comfort:

Mathewsmum-:crossfingers:

Matthew's Mum I've had impantation bleeds with both my pregnancies and they were exactly like you described so :crossfingers: for you xx

Ooooh, Fingers crossed Matthew's Mum!

Hi everyone,

Well glad to see that we all still have a healthy sense of humour despite everything else going on! Hmm, let me see, we've had knob spitting, omlette making, chaffage, and wine throwing (you have great restraint Kit, I think I might have slapped her) and The Pram of Justice has made a spectacular come back - ah it was good to have a laugh - I needed it! Thanks :)

And thanks for your comments, feel a bit more brave today.

Bons - hope you managed to catch the egg this month with your DH away
Kit - how's the charting going? Hope you get the best b'day present imaginable
Jellylove - sorry for your BFN. Hope next month is yours
Crafty - happy birthday to your little one. Hope the herbs are working. Your birthday is the same day as my brother! Hope this year brings you your hearts desire
SammyP - sorry about your loss and no one remembering. Your little one is with you always x
MillyD - hope the TWW isn't going too slow. Fingers crossed
MatthewsMum - I know we keep saying it but it really is a rollercoaster you're on. So hard to know what's really happening with all the drugs. Really hope that you've had an implantation bleed and the embie is snuggling in. Fingers crossed. Six frozen blasties is a wonderful result but don't give up on this one yet.
Wouldloveabubba -just wanted to say hi. How are you doing?
Sunbeam - all the best for this TWW. Please let us know how everything goes. Hope this is it for you x
Saffy- I'm sorry your experiences have brought you here. I hope you have a short stay. Glad you de-lurked, there's much love and support to be had here and I know for me it has been a wonderful thread to become a part of.
Dory- hope things are going well for you
T-hopes. Our Lady of The Egg Whites - May the protein help your DH's swimmers and all your all your sons be bishops! (a favourite saying of one of my Catholic friends - apparently it is a great blessing :)
Possum - hello, how are things with you?
Mildez - sorry to read your last post about your DH grieving. We all go through it and I agree with others that he might be just trying to protect himself from more hurt. But really, he doesn't know for certain, none of us can, it is his fear talking. If you have a chance for IVF then I hope you can take it and that it works for you. x
MissK - good luck for this cycle
SarahRach - I think we were in the same bb group - happy to see you on your way again and thanks for the lovely post.
IonaMacca - good luck for the TWW
Ianna - hi, nice to hear from you
Ferrals - good luck this month too. It's gotta be your turn now
JennaJayen - you poor thing, sounds like you've been v. sick. Hope you're feeling better soon.
Ami- good luck!
MurryCod - hope your veins are OK after all that prodding and poking. I'm sorry you are feeling like that about Christmas, Easter etc with no kids yet. I hope this year that changes and May is your turn
Loopos12 - hope you don't have to wait too long for AF and that next month is for you.
Tegam - I'm so sorry to read your post. You've had just the most difficult year you poor thing. This must be very heartbreaking for you. Take care and we're always here - PM whenever you need to. Don't forget I'm just up the hill if you want a coffee and a chat
Audex - I think I would have cried too, hearing that little heartbeat. All the best to you for a happy and healthy pg. We've missed you! I had forgotten your protocol of naming the events! Made me laugh thinking about the Cardboard Box Meltdown you named for me in March. Ah god, if only the Pram of Justice didn't need to exist. People are idiots in what they say - I can't get over it. I want to take out your April Fools fool, MurryCods "you'll never know love til you hold a baby", Kit's "I'd handle a mc", Ferral's "I'll smoke to keep the weight down" and the friend who told me years ago, when I was visiting after she had a miscarriage, "You of all people should be happy". WTF?! Can these people just disappear please? Now?

AFM - finally got in to see the Chinese Medicine doctor/acupuncturist yesterday. She was fantastic but my head is spinning from the conversation we had. Too much to go through now but basically I'm on the strict diet again (no dairy, no coffee, no alcohol, no sugar, no wheat and it goes on). I've done it before and have kept to it in some form for a while now - don't drink coffee and very little alcohol and not much wheat but oh well, if it helps our next go. She said a lot of v. interesting stuff re. my remaining blocked tube being the main reason I can't fall pg or carry a pg. I'd be happy to share with anyone here who has lost a tube no to ectopic but for other reasons like endo. She has confirmed some deep down suspicions I've had for a while regarding my general hormonal health so looking forward to working with her. I asked her outright if she thought I should just give up and she said "hell no, you're not old in my books" so that has bolstered my spirits somewhat.

Sorry if I missed any other posts while typing.

Alice x

Hello to all my lovely friends in here, I'm sorry I haven't posted in a long time, I was just staying quiet, anyway thought I'd come in here to share my news, this morning I got a :bfp: :leap:
I feel very queasy and excited and a bit scared too.

Hope you can all join me very soon :)

Kirsten - Congrats on your BFP!
Alice - Thank you! Good luck with your new diet, hope it has the desired effects!
Matthew'sMum- :crossfingers:
T-hopes - Thank you! Hope this month is the one for you!

Well I did another test this morning. BFN for me. I'm giving up for this cycle. and i guess because AF came like a week early I'm on CD9 Instead. Confused now.
