    Morning Everyone,
    Dory - I dont mind the comment about the turkey baster, the thought had crossed my mind! Just wasnt sure if the swimmers quality would be affected! So glad to hear you are doing well, I dont think the anxiety is going to leave you until your baby is safely in your arms, so just know that we will all be here for you xxx
    Ferrals - Glad you have taken the steps for IVF, but i think Murphys law will step in after you have got everything organised with a BFP, thanks for the info on vitex too.Looking forward to seeing more pictures of a bigger Mowgli xxx
    TTcaLovechild - How long til you get your results? Hoping you get your sneaky BFP....
    Reet - Your puppy sounds adorable! Going to be big too, Furbaby's always make you feel better!
    Murraycod - Are you awake for the biopsy? I hope it goes well hun!
    Crafty - Look forward to your POAS on monday! All promising signs, i hope they all stick around and increase 10 fold

    AFM - Trying to keep myself busy, going to wash the car today, then maybe do the bathrooms.....ahhhh boredom.
    Big hugs to you all!
    xxx

    KitF ~ GL with this cycle, Love to you 2
    Thopes ~ I watch a bit of vampire diaries but find it no where near as good as Twilight. Hope you hol come around quick.
    Murraycod ~ hoping the biopsy goes ok. Will be thinking of you
    TTCALoveChild ~ Thanks and best of luck to you
    Bons ~ Hi and hugs

    Sorry if Ive missed anyone, trying to catch up.
    But Best of luck to all! Hoping for lots of BFP's.

    AFM ~ Dont really know where Im at. AF still hasnt arrived and Ive been getting weird tummy pains. Hoping that maybe its a huge miracle and we've managed to get PG naturally. Highly doubtful though. Otherwise I guess AF is on her way and maybe its going to be a strong heavy one. I suppose if its not here by Sun/Mon I'll get a POAS. Either way I'll be happy because if AF comes as Ive said in the past i'll at least know my system is getting back to normal. Ive also had the odd feeling of nausea and have been a bit *cough/blush* constipated. Maybe you just never know.

    Love to all xo

    Hi again
    I just went back and read some from the previous thread and now want to thank Murraycod, Ferrals and Saffy for your comments and support and advice.

    Murraycod and Ferrals ~ You lovely ladies are probably right. My previous IUI's/IVF I have had longer cycles after. Usually though AF would come normally and then the 2nd cycle would be the long one. But then I guess with the loss 2 its probably gunna take a while for AF to come. Just have to be patient I guess, although its very hard to be.
    Would struggle to get through this without you all so ta, much appreciated. xoxo

    HI Ladies,

    Iona...sorry sweet, big hugs and I hope youre wrong xxx
    MM loving thoughts to you, hope all is great!!
    Ferrals, how you feeling, sounding good. Hopefully the phonecall to the FS and IVF ball rolling was a complete waste of energy and time
    Loops I hope you have managed a natural pg, what a blessing
    TTCALC apple pancakes and almond hersheys, girl I'm gonna need to go to the shop soon hehehe..all sounds delicious
    T hopes, I have managed to convince myself my pulse is different and then 3 seconds later convince myself its not again, my DH thinks I have gone mad
    Murraycod I'm with you, this thread needs a mass cleanout, how good would it be if we could all step aside and leave this thread to some other poor souls, or better yet, leave it empty never to be heard of again.......sigh........
    Reet, Porche, Ami, Sunbeam, Bons and all the other beauties..HI
    And Sweet Dory, blessings my love, may this be the earthly baby of your dreams, I pray you are feeling stronger today and fear has left you alone for a good while. YOu are a beautiful lady and deserve peace in your heat, as do we all...xxxxx

    AFM I am pretty sure its a no go this month, but just a 'feeling' NOt sure if its just impending doom....next month is our last try. Hubby wants to stop after that....very scared and sad that we will reach the end of our ttc journey without a beautiful bub..
    I pray...actually I beg for divine intervention, please please please let it be our month
    Love to all may sticky baby dust rain upon us all

    hahaha went a bit nuts there xxx

    Thanks Ferrals for that info! i hadnt gotten around to googling it, i dont think i need to now! just wondering what u girls wld do.. go natural and try the vitex or see my gyno and get whatever drugs he gives me?? I was thinking about getting an appointment with my naturopath instead of my gyno, but was a bit reluctant cos last time i went i walked out with $300 worth of stuff when i was feeling healthy! Not sure tho.. guess i just want whatever is going to give me results.. fast!!

    Loops: fingers crossed for you

    Mathew's Mum: so sorry that the embie didn't stay with you. I'm sure you've done nothing wrong but i know how hard it is to remind yourself of that. After my mc my Dr told me very clearly: "This is not your fault". I automatically thought "yes yes I know that". But Iater I'd find myself thinking maybe it was my fault because I did this or that or the other. And every time i'd remember my dr's words "It's not your fault". So...it was a very wise thing of him to say. I hope you will keep reminding yourself it's not your fault.

    Millyd: thanks for your lovely words and i am soooo you get your bfp this month so you don't have to deal with that deadline.

    Jenna: sorry for AF. Hope you feel better soon

    SPF: great to hear you are 14wks. But i know it's still hard to meet babies due when yours was. That happened to me last week. I felt sad and a bit wierd...like i was having to 'fake it' a bit in terms of saying all the right happy things to the mother. Hope your meeting goes ok.

    ALice: good on you for courage in talking to someone. lol at idea of nutritional psychosis!

    TTCALC: wow you are organised! Very impressive. Good luck with everything you have on this week.

    Kit: interested in your experience re EWCM. Mine is also good ATM, 2 days before O is due. Wasn't sure how much in advance of O EWCM starts.

    Bons: hope your DH is around to 'drown' the egg (to quote someone else)! I can see how the syringe would be tempting but i'm not sure it works unless it's pretty close in time to when DH DTD...in which case you'd be together anyway and wouldn't need the syringe. (I might be wrong...OThers might like to correct my biological knowledge!)

    Hi to everyone else i missed

    AFM Going to do another OPK tonight. Got 'nada' last night... Only one line. BUt it is a bit early.

    TCCLAC - Glad things went well in Court for you, and I hope that you got some sleep the night before..... I love the story about the toilet paper. I am the same! We have only an 18 pack and about 10 in the house and I am thinking we are getting low! I now only buy in 18/24 packs because then I don't get anxious about it. Hilarious. My BF said once to me she never buys toilet paper in bulk because people might think she has diahoerra. Poor Leigha, I can't imagine what it must be like to live in a family where she was under appreciated to that extent. I can't imagine how low her self confidence must be. Did she get a cake? What sort? Did she love blowing out the candles? Good luck for your lap which is coming up. Hope Ron has got his nurses out fit ready? Woot Woot.

    Ferals - I love the photos of Sarabi - I think its a great idea to get two cats, for lots of reasons. First of all they can keep each other company when you are both out, second, they play with each other when you're all at home, and third, you and DH don't have to fight to get cat cuddles. I just adore my fur babies. Of course there is the litter ( not my job at the moment!) and the puke, and the vet visits because I am too viligant, but there are so many more gifts that they unwittingly give. I was woken this morning by a cat wanting a cuddle. Then I woke later to a cat curled up between my feet. Right now, a cat has climbed up on the lounge and is snuggled up to me. Perfect. Just perfect. And yesterday when I just felt inexplicably sad and was just crying, I went and laid next to one of the cats, who looked up from his snooze, stretched out one paw put it on my hand and started to purr loudly, and then went back to snoozing. It was such a simple gesture but gave me so much comfort. So my sweet, with two furbabies, you won't look back. BTW I have everything crossed for your weird symptoms. Cat cuddles!

    Kit - I laughed so hard when you recounted the story of your George falling into the toilet and being blue from the toilet water! Hilarous. You must have just laughed so hard. He didn't get out and run like a mad thing through the house did he? That would have been funny, except you
    would have had to clean it up.

    Mildez - sweetie. I am thinking of you. It sounds weird, but somehow, after you move past the milestone of your EDD, things are different. Its not like a magic wand type of moment, but more as you pointed out, something you have been wanting to avoid has passsed. The dread can often be worse than the day itself. I am sorry that your DH is going away.

    Is there anyone that you trust not to hover and crowd you in but who can be with you over the weekend? You are right, its better not to be alone. I will be thinking of you, especially over the next few days and keeping you and your angel close to my heart. Love to you.

    Bons - hmm a manicure. I don't reckon it would get noticed either, but if you want to feel a bit spec, go ahead! Maybe the boy will surprise us all and notice!

    Hello to all my other special friends - Murray, Crafty, MillyD, Ionna, Possum. Alice, Saffy, T Hopes, Loops, Reet, Jenna ( glad you got some pain relief from the hospital but sorry about AF- hope you are resting up) Porhce ( you've been quiet – all ok), Ami, Sunbeam, ScaryPinkFairy – thinking of you and sending you cat cuddles.

    Mathews Mum - thankyou for thinking of me when you have so much to think about at the moment. I really do appreciate it. I am so heartbroken for you and your emby. I wish I could make it better for you, I really do. Sending you a big cat hug and purr ( and coping you are not allergic).

    AFM - feeling much more my old self today after being quite weepy yesterday. Maybe I just needed some extra cat cuddles? On an aside, I am in the throes of my second ever known bout of thrush. Not too bad in terms of symptoms but lots of itching. Anyway, have been using the “applicator” for two nights now. Wish I had a funny story to tell, but I have nothing. Usually inner health plus works for me at keeping it at bay, but not at the mo. I can't stand the smell of the VJ after the cream is in there. Yucko!
