Mildez: I thought i remembered that you are TTC with one tube? I thought you might be interested to hear what happened to a friend of mine. My friend had an ectopic pg in October last year and lost one tube. She has just announced that she is 3 mths pg and all looks good but the really interesting thing is that u/s shows she conceived from the side with no tube! I didn't know that was possible but she said they know it was from the side with no tube because they can see the Corpus Luteum on that side (so they know the egg came from a follicle on that side). She was told that the tube on the other side probably managed to 'vaccuum' up the egg (to compensate for the missing tube). Amazing story.
Murray cod: Ow Ow Ow! Cringed in sympathy when I read your post. So sorry you had to go through that horrible experience. I was excited to hear you've got your meds and it's getting close to your next cycle but I can understand why you're feeling scared about it (scared of being disappointed). We will be thinking of you and hear to listen whenever you need it. I soooooo hope you will be rewarded for your bravery. You deserve it.

Morning Lovelies!
Crafty - I love retail therapy! One of my favourite shops is bunnings followed by kmart ;) I hope CD2 is nicer to you and the flood eases.....xxx
Murraycod - OOOh Hun, The biopsy sounded terrible! I hope it is a good outcome for you though! bring on crazy Murraycod with her meds;)xxx Mooty and Tooty sound cute!
Ferrals - 2 sleeps til Mowgli and Sarabi come home! Something nice to look forward to, maybe just hide all speaker cables, phone chargers etc, mine all got chewed through!
Reet - How are you going with everything?
Nice to hear from you Possum!
Loops - waiting waiting hehe? I get more excited about everyone else testing than myself!
Alice - Was thinking about you this morning it was so cold here but in the mountains it must have been freezing! It is so pretty up there through the cooler monthsxx
Mathews Mum - Bring on AF! Feels weird writing that though....hope she evil woman arrives pronto so you can be monitored again!
Dory - So nice to hear from you again! I realise how hard it must be to keep positive, but take one day at a time, we all know you will get there!xx
How are you doing sunbeam and Iona?
T-Hopes - have made any decisions about clomid? Im with the other girls... I would find a F/S that would prescribe it.... but im very impatient!
Kitf - Have fun doing uni stuff....And you are almost in the 1WW! Yay!!! Hopefully you have a little egg making itself warm and cozy!xx
Hugs to everyone I have missedxxx
AFM - Well Mothers Group was nice yesterday, had a bit of a cry on DH's shoulder last night though, just felt sad about everything and really wishing all our stories were different with happy endings! Playing peek a boo with one of the little boys was so much fun, but it hurt at the same time......I have to cheer myself up though and get ready to BD the weekend away:dance:

possum magic thanks for you story on your friend. They do say if you only have one tube it only slightly reduces the risk as the egg from either side can be collected by the one tube. However my only tube is damaged and is stuck down with adhesions so no movement happening. The tube is suppose to wave and help along the emby and mine doesn't so thats why I am at such risk of any ectopic pregnancy. Even if it fertilizes no quarantee the tube can get it to the uterus. I am not sure exactly what my risk is but as I have had 2 already its very high and unfortunately IVF doesn't reduce those risks just helps me get pregnant in the first place.
Ferrals I am :pray: your pregnant still and you used dodgy tests or like me your wee is funny lol. For what ever reason my FMU never had a good line compared to diluted stuff. Even OPT are the same.
Loops :pray::pray: your pregnant. What a beautiful amazing surprise if you are and without IVF. :pray: as hard as I can your baking a miracle bub.
craftymummy I have seen some women having babies at 47 (natural conception) and 46 and recently a lady who was 46 had a bub and had twins at 45. It happens.
Gee I don't know what is going on in DH head. He said if I am not pregnant next month (allowing this cycle and next) he wants to start IVF. He can't stick with the same story and plan. Anyway I have no idea where I am at. CD16 but have had Ovary pain for over a week. Its been about 3-4days since I had cm and a cervix which was open but I don't think I have O'd yet. But why did I dry up! Who knows whats going on. Maybe I O'd way earlier then normal as usually its CD16-17. Anyway I'll be testing in about 2weeks I guess. Never seem to hold out long enough for AF to arrive first.

Morning all
Bons glad your group meeting was kinder than you thought its lovely when you play with little ones they seem to know when we are feeling sad inside. You will get your little one soon enough as we all will.
Mildez thanks for the info on older women having babies I guess I am still in with a chance just need to get the damn good egg to meet the sperm ! Must be hard being a midwife at times when TTC hearing the newborn cry ! wow and I guess you know more info on the subject than most of us guess it can not be that good knowing too much sometimes its good to be in the dark ! I have much experience of being pg and giving birth but as you know its the getting pg thats the hard bit !
My cycles took ages to get back to what could be called normal been 8 mnths since my D&C and only really had 2 good cycles with cmucus and definate ovu so I am hoping my body is back on track but you never know,
I would just keep bdancing every few days then you know you will be in with a chance of catching that egg. As for DH and ivf well its good to have plan in mind you may not need it anyways but still good to have a plan B.
Murraycod hope your feeling better today not too sore !
Ferrals come on let us know your ok your not alone we all feel for you ! whatever the weekend brings ! keep beleiving one day we will both be pot bellied again !
Mattews mum thanks for the info, hope your getting ready for your next try when will you be having the transfer ? will you be a YAY FOR MAY girl too !
well gotta run take the tribe to school, still cramping but not so much flooding guess I should be greatful I still getting AF ontime at my age ! Was thinking I didn't really want a baby in the heat of summer so guess its going towards next autumn now ! seems so long away autumn 2011 just hope I can catch the egg soon !
By for now have a great day !

craftymummy my area in midwifery was labour and birth but now I am super interested in fertility and getting pregnant and early pregnancy. I live in a rural area so unfortunately can not work in this area but maybe one day they will have an IVF clinic here and I can go work there. I think what gives me hope is all the stories and things I have seen from women who were not suppose to be able to concieve and the miracles that do happen. That's why I am confident it will happen just unfortunately thats not in my time frame. And also we wanted a big family but DH has changed his mind. We wont stop ttc in the next 10-15years for the next bub but unfortunately he is closing the book after then. Just hope as we haven't been able to get pregnant since my tube was removed that he is still happy to not try but not prevent that way there will always be a tiny chance we will have more children eventually. As greedy as I guess this is I am sure I will not feel my family is complete even after we are blessed with one more child. From always planning on having a large family and setting ourselves up for that I can just change my mind even if plans have to change. But I guess no point worrying about no 4 when no 3 isn't even close.
-
Ferrals - spreading as much :pink-babydust::bluedust: as I can. I could clearly see a second line on that night time test so I will keep lurking until I see you announce your BFP and leave this this thread for a belly buddies thread. You were always such an encouragement to me in my time here xo - take care
-
Mildez My SIL had an ectopic 1st pregnancy and had a terible time when it burst as she didn't even know she was pregnant ! anyhow within 6 mnths and with only one tube she managed to have a boy then 20mnths later a girl. Well she didn't cope too well with being a mum so ended up haveing her remaining tube tied as she didn't want any more kids ! I guess what I am trying to say is you are still in with a good chance there are miracles out there and you will get one soon. I have had probs along the years if your read my story on my blog you will see !
Don't ever give up hope I never have and have had many miracles in my time and I am being the greedy one expecting one more at 45 ! But I am determined ! if god wants me to have one more then he will give me one !
TinaR wow can't beleive how far along you are you got a BFP just as I joined great news hope your little bundle don't keep you waiting too much longer !
Ferrals will be fine I still think shes got a sneaky BFP !

Hey everyone
Crafty: I'm glad you had a really good cycle, those herbs must be doing their job. Getting a good cycle is step one, so you've got that down, now on to step two - make the baby!
Mildez: Definitely sounds like TTC and early preg is what your passionate about, I hope you get to work in that side of things soon. You never know, you might end up with a bigger family than you anticipated :)
Bons: Sorry it was a hard weekend, it sucks that our stories are sad, but I know they'll end up happy. Now go get your groove on ;)
Murraycod: OMG I hope you never have to do that again! But just think of all the things you can fling at your child when they're misbehaving, not just ''I was in labour for 24 hours for you! Now clean up your room!'' But ''Do you know how many needles I had to take! Do you know what a biopsy is? Do the dishes!'' Oh and LMAO @ Mooty and Tooty! One of my friends has Smat the cat, and I read a story about a dog called Choo-Choo who went missing so it's owners had to run around the neighbourhood screaming ''Choo-choo! Choo-choo!" Frikin hilarious! Someone has to be the person who calls their pets cute/ridiculous names, I guess your surprised your DH turned out to be that person? I think it's awesome though :) (just so you know, I had to work pretty hard to stop DH calling our cat Stupyhead)
Loops: Are you still waiting til Friday?
AFM: So over this stupid assignment! I just hope I pass, I usually get pretty good grades, but I think I can kiss that HD goodbye this time! When I'm a psychologist, I'm just not gonna publish anything, and if I do, I'll hire a stats expert. The only good thing is that I still feel like I'm in a bubble, it's actually kinda relaxing. I'm 6DPO today and I think I'll start testing from 8 DPO. I know I'll get a BF - what did you really expect -N, but that way I can hopefully let it go for that day. Fingers crossed anyway!
Love to everyone!
Ferrals: What's happening darlin? Your missed :(
-
I am here girls just had to have a moment for myself i will pop in later to catch up.
-
Ferrals - I have my fingers crossed for you!! Will be checking in to see any news from you. :pray: for a BFP!!
-
hi girls
just got back from my gyno appt and im so sad cause he wont put me on clomid. he wants us to wait to DH's semen test and 2 more cycles b4 he will let me. i feel so angry! I still havent got AF from this cycle, he think i could be UTD now but i know im not!!!! I still think AF is a few days away, but tested yesterday and BFN. HE gave me slip for BT, not even going to bother though.
Im so frustrated cause i feel we are just wasting every month. Mum came with me as DH couldnt make it and even she tried to push it but to no avail. He doesnt think Clomid will make an ounce of difference for us because my progesterone levels were so high on day 21 proving that i am o'ing. im so *****ty!!! :wall: He was lovely about it all but he just truly believes that it will happen by itself! He's dreaming! Moron!
sorry to be all about me, just needed to0 vent! Poor DH has copped an ear bashing! And whats even more annoying is he cant get in for semen test till 21 May!!! AHHHHH!
im gunna have a warm bath and try to encourage AF to come out! be back later xx

Hi ladies
I am not feeling to great not real talkative sorry i am just having a hard time dealing with this whole thing how can i feel pregnant and have all the signs i had two hpt's that had lines and 6 negatives yes 6 i have tried them all to no avail i have never had a false positive never seen one i have seen an evaporation line but i know this was not that as it clearly had colour so the only other thing that it could be is what my speacialist said that maybe the embryo implanted and grew to a certain stage and then went wrong maybe that was enough to get a light pos on the hpt i don't know i am grasping at straws.
part of me hopes i was pregnant and it just didnt take because of our genetic fault that way i know i am still fertile and can get pregnant and the other part of me hopes it was just a faulty batch of tests (the two with lines were from the same box) i just don't know i still feel pregnant in a way really sore boobs and dizzy in the mornings and just a general feeling that something is different.
But i know i am not so one more month of trying then off to see a FS.
Thanks for asking about me it means a lot and please forgive me for not doing persies i am going to have a lovey dovey night with DH we both are not working and he is pretty pi##ed off at the world and upset so he needs some cuddles and molesting before AF shows her unwanted ugly bi#ch of a face.
Two more sleeps until Mowgli and sarabi come home that will help me feel better.
LOVE YA'S ALL.

Oh Ferrals Darling, (huggs)..... I'm not really sure what to say. I know that the hurt you are feeling at the moment will overcompensate any encouragement I can share.
But hey, what the heck, I know your reading so I'll just go for it anyway ;) X
You will get this dream, you will fall pregnant, mabey this time was wrong for you. Perhaps those 2 lines were real, mabey your specialist is spot on, who knows, but the last thing I ever want to see, is you go through the heart ache you have already suffered for such a long time now.
Please know that nature is looking after your heart as much as she can, I'm not sure about how much I beleive in God and stuff, but I do beleive our babies have a heaven, and I do beleive that nature is real, sometimes she can be heartachingly real, but she is there.
Darling, as exhausting and how winding this road is you are on, know that we beleive in you, and beleive that nature will give you and your Darling DH your healthy baby. Mabey just not this time. HUGE BIG HUG HONEY X
THopes, I'm sorry that you feel let down. But darling do us all a favour and get the bloods done......hey someone owes me 20 something viles!!!!XXXX
Hope you enjoyed your bath, and a relaxing evening.
Take care chicky X
Possum, thank you sweetheart X
Kit, babe you can LYAO as much as you like, cuz I still cringe every time I hear those names! The girls at work are LtheirAO too beleive me, I am getting so much S**T hung on me. DH owes me a massage for this big time.
Oh we need a psychologist in here :shakehead: We are all a mess ATM.
Do you remember the movie BeetleJuice??? Hey, mabey, just a test, if I say "Audax, Audax, Audax", just mabey.................we can get some cheerful SVNnews!?!?!?!!
Mildez, you would make the perfect Fertility nurse. Let me know if you do ever get that position you want, so I can switch clinics!! Not that I don't love the one I am in, but having you look after people going through what you have, you would be just great XX
Matthew'sMum, thanks, I will get a much better sleep tonight knowing I wont be waking up to any alarm clocks. I love the feeling of waking up in the morning, looking at the clock stressing I slept through the alarm, then realising I have the day off, and can go back to sleep, for like, hours!!! If I could bottle that one feeling right there and sell it, I'd be a millionare!
I hope you are well X
Reet, good luck with bringing on AF, she can be a stubborn cow one day, and an unwelcome one the next. Hope the provera works XXXXX
Bons, enjoy your raunched up weekend honey go catch that egg!!XX But stay away from the eggs please please!!:lol: Hmmm, we sort of do go to desperate measures don't we.........
And yes, bring on Hormone filled crazy Murraycod, god help you all LMAO!!!!
Crafty Darling, hope AF has eased off for you XXXXX Love to you XXXXX
AFM, well, I still have slight cramps from yesterday, I just wish they would murger into AF so I can hurry up and start jabbing! Thank you everyone for your well wishes. I appreciate it very much X Love to you all X

Mildez: Oh, i'm sorry. Very unfair that you have the trouble with your second tube. I really hope a clever baby manages to sneak past it.
I don't think you are selfish for wanting a bigger family. Others wish for it and get it and it isn't seen as greedy so why should it be greedy when we wish for it just because we are having a bit more trouble than others in getting it? For me though, the trouble TTC has made me realise that I may have to adjust my expectations just as a way of looking after myself: i was so upset when I first started to doubt i'd reach my goal of three kids and devestated that i might not get a second child. I'm now trying to take it a step at a time. I'd be greatful for a number two at this point and if i get it, well, i'll see how i feel about another one.
Bons: I can sympathise with the mothers' group experience. Of the mothers' groups i go to nearly everyone is pregnant with number two or has new babies. I feel like i've fallen behind. I love the new littlies but at times it's hard seeing them.
Ferrals: Hope you have great cuddles with DH and that you both feel better in the morning.
Craftymummy: glad the flood is easing and your cycles seem to be settling a bit.
T-Hopes: pooh to your gyno! GIVE THE WOMAN THE DRUGS!!! It must be frustrating when you think this might help you to be told to wait and see again. I hope you're hiding a sneaky BFP in the meantime (but i know it's crazy making when you 'know' you're not...but then you think maybe you are... and then AF shows! I hope AF stays away)
Loops, Mathewsmum, Reet and others lurking: Hello all
-
Morning ladies
Murrycod- i private messaged you.
T-hopes-i'd find another gyno and say i have waited long enough!
Crafty-hope AF is leaving and not to show her head again for 9-10 months.
Bons-i have a few friends with babies born after i had Abbi it is very hard to see them but i try to be happy for them i just don't see them as often as i use to.
Hello to everyone hope everyone is well .
AFM-temp dropped to 36.38 AF is on her way due sat glad i will have my kitty's to keep me busy.
-
ferrals4 :wall: what a crappy month. Grrr that this has happened to you. Yeah to the kitties though. They will be absolutely gorgeous. You will have so much fun with them.
Murraycod your way to kind.
possum magic thank you for your kind words. DH makes me feel greedy. Keeps saying at least I have 2 as he only has one and his sister has none which is so true but wish he wouldn't say that. He only wanted 2 biological kids where as I wanted 6 (we compromised at 4 so he gets one more and me two less) so really I feel I am missing out more then him :shhh: its the whole not been able to get pregnant thing that gets me down. And the longer it goes the more hope I loose. And know one (meaning Drs) seem to want to help. Just say come back in a few years :wall: honestly how can we go through this torture for another few years ( we are already at the 2yr mark and 3years if we include not preventing but not really trying either) I too am just trying to take it one at a time. And secretly praying their is a surprise in store down the track.
T-hopes my Dr wont put me on clomid either. He said as I ovulate perfectly which according to my blood works I do it will not help.

Hey there Ladies.. Missed you all!!
Sorry again for not being in here since we got custody there has been so much we had to get taken care of like there birth certufcates and ss cards and school updates omg i been running around like crazy..
My GYN canceled by surgery for tomorrow .. So she changed it to May 3rd. so hopefully that is teh day it happens and we can find out what is going on..
My DF went to his heart doctor today ( little worried about him, he has been having some chest pains like b4 5 yrs ago) so he went today to see what is going on and his cholesterol is high and he has to have a stress test done on Monday same day i have to have my surgery :( he was going to chnage it i told him no you go get this done..
5 yrs ago he had a heart attack at the age of 35 and had to have 2 stents put in and they pretty much have deteraited(sp?) and one of his arteries are blocked and the other is 20% clogged.. his EKG wasnt looking good at all that is why they want the stress test done..
So i got alot to think about if im wanting to start TTC anytime soon. i think we are going to rest and take it easy for a few and go from there if it happens it happens .. but that doesnt mean im leaving here :) i love you all,you all have helped me thru things and have been such a great people..
THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!!.
I do want to say FERRAL.. My heart goes out to you.. i really does you been thru so much just like the rest of us but deep down i believe you deserve to have a lil bub and im sure you will soon :) hang in there.
