aw Ferrals!!!!!!!!! Your husband is ace - she's beautiful!! Pets really do seem happier in pairs so I think he was right.
Crafty :o are you pulling a sneaky BFP on us?? Woohoo that'd be great!
MurryCod - nah, reckon it'll be me but I'm not going to fight you for it! :)
Bons, Possums - get ready for the pants party
Saffy, hope the Clomid helps
Sorry for missing people - I'm meant to be making my dairy-free, wheat-free, sugar-free, potato-free, mushroom-free, fun-free (oops, did I say that?) dinner (that's without a glass of wine for inspiration too). Resentful? Nahhhhhhhh not MUCH :) just kidding - it's all good (if I keep telling myself that I will eventually believe it). **** here comes DH, better get going. Do you know that Kinky Friedman song "Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns on the bed"...bye!!!
Alice: I had to do a major detox last year - best meal I found was a gluten free Pizza Base with loads of vegies and organic tomato paste, I was allowed to have mozorella (how the hell do you spell it! LOL!) cheese, but I think there's vegan alternatives? Anyway, eating pizza made me happy, lol. There was also gluten free Mac and Cheese, dont know if it was fake dairy though? Good luck babe!
Ferrals: EEEEEEEEEeeee! She is just adorable! She needs a jungle name too to match her brother. Cats are way happier in pairs, I have a friend who has two ragdoll cats, he says they lie in each others arms (he calls it front cuddles, but he's a boy so he would). Lucky girl :) Oh the pats and purrs that are coming your way!
Possum Magic: Trying to send my mind way back to when I conceived Splat, I remember getting EWCM on Day 12 and I got the positive on Day 30, so I think I must've had EWCM a few days before O then too? Lets hope we both get BFGSP's this month! (Big Fat Ginormo Sticky Positives!)
MatthewsMum: *Hugs*
MurrayCod: Mwa xo
Crafty: Oh that would just be so awesome if you've got a bubba sneaking in! PLEASE!!!!!
AFM: Delirious with lack of food and way too much statistics. DH is on his way home with food. I asked for as healthy as he could get, but I bet he brings home KFC, lol. The Wii is gonna be so disappointed in me.
Alice-dinner sound sooo yummy NOT! it is horrible isn't it and there is not a great variety.
Kitfaerie-the photo dosn't do her justice she pounces around in the most gentle way and does the whole cat stretch thing which is funny i can't wait to bring them home and take my own photos of them playing.
And i agree she needs a cool name like her brother.
AFM- DH and i are having a lovey dovey night tonight although if DH keeps dropping his guts like he is right now the only loving he will get will be self administered (he stinks).
And i am feeling really good i feel like somthing is going on with my body my boobs are just incredably sore i bumped into hubby earlier and ouch they hurt and my belly feels crampy but different and on the oppisite side than i normally get AF pain so i and quietly excited.
Matthew's Mum - I have a heap of opk's at home if you want me to send you some!!! I got them off internet for cheap as
Ferrals - they are soo cute. I'm not allowed anymore pets unless it's a fish until one of my cats dies - I have 2
Hi to everyone else - just done a quick read over
AFM: think I'm out for the month :tmiwarning: my brown discharge is turning to red :( :(
matthewsmum - i wish i could help ease the pain and disappointment that you must be feeling right now. please know that you are in my prayers and im so sorry. sending you lots of love and hugs xx
thanks to the ladies that answered my question re progesterone. i really appreciated it, you put my mind at ease! my gyno rang back and said that levels over 10 were good, 20 were great and mine at 72.8 was fab! He also said that it could be a sign of pregnancy! i had cramping yesterday at 6dpo so just have to wait and see! BB's starting hurting today too!! :pray:
xx
IOna Macca,
big hugs sweetie and love to you xxxx
Ferrals, in Jungle book 2 there is a little girl, her name is Shanti...just a suggestion for Mowgli sister xxx
Glad your bbobs are sore, mine are tingly and i have lots of white mucus...its staining my knickers... sorry tmi, xxxx
T-Hopes-i was actually thinking it's a little high for a natural cycle progesterone can be high if you pop more than one egg or are pregnant lets hope your pregnant i was reading a lot on progesterone levels in the 2nd half of cycle because my boobs are so sore and the main reason for high progesterone was being utd.
Millyd-we thought of shanti but DH not to sure and also sarabi out of the lion king but DH dosn't like that so we will keep thinking if anyone has any ideas let me know.
Looks like we could have a breakout in the making! Good luck everyone x
Just so you don't think Im eating sand...dinner was oven roasted chicken with spices and sesame seeds and a green salad with olives, cucumber, and tomato. Not too bad! Now I'm going to make myself a hot chocolate with soy milk...well, can't be that bad! Nite all
Hee hee so much for staying away for a few busy days
PS Kit - hm will be looking for that pizza base and my fav character from True Blood is Eric, followed by Pam - they are hilarious in the books.
Ferrals, what about 'Sage'? as in the herb.....since you are like, full on with the herbs and stuff!;)
Alice, pants party, hee hee lol.
BTW Your meal sounds yum! Glad you found something gourmet!
Ferrals, Murray Cod, Mathews mum, thanks! At least i get to POAS lots! Even if it isn't the exciting kind. Still waiting...
Kitfaerie: yes please! BF-Ginormous-Ps!
T-Hopes: pave the way for us please, we'll be right behind you!
Millyd: You too!
Possumm..

Murrycod-i like sage how cute i will run it by DH.
TTCALC-you sound like me i won't go to bed unless my kitchen is clean otherwise i lay there having an axiety attack over coachroaches having a feast on the dishes i use to be bad a real clean freak because the boys all had asthma when they were little so i was a maniac with vaccuming and dusting and throwing everything away a can't stand clutter i would never have animals in the house LOL look at me know two kittens coming home next week although one is practically bald and the other the shortest coat ever so i wont have to worry about hair anyway i have settled down a bit my DH had to get use to me constantly cleaning when he whinges i just say i was like this when you met me so get over it and go watch TV or come help me clean and he lets me go on my merry way.
AFM-My temp is rising nicely 36.71 today so just the waiting game now.
Looks like I am on the way out ladies, cervix is very open this morning :(
Millyd- don't jump to conclusions yet hon, :crossfingers:
Ferals- your kittys are SOOO gorgeous, I love them, Sage is a great name too. I have brother and sister kittycats, they are besties and have never been apart, would never get just one now. Do you get foxtel? there was a show on last nightabout PGD IVF (is that what its called-you know what I mean) on the health channel. When are you testing?
TTCALC-HA! my DH would love if I was a cleanaholic, he is in theory but is too lazy to actually do anything so I do it my way and he can like it or lump it!! Good luck to you this month x
Possum- I get a thrill from POAS OPK as well, sad isn't it! hehe, hope you get your 2 lines soon then can go for it xx
Alice- your meal sounds nice, hope it was yummy, I miss my glasss of wine w dinner too, oh well its good practice for when we get UTD!
Iona- sorry AF is coming, its hard when you get your hopes up every month isn't it? hugs to you hon xx
THopes- I was so excited to read your last post! all the signs look promising babe FX for you, please can these potential BFP's be contagious!!
Kitfaerie- hows it going? Did you get KFC last night?
Murrycod- how did your friend go? Hope it was good news for her, I know exactly what you mean xx
Crafty-sounding good! I hope so much that this is a great BFP month for everyone, you deserve it x
me- CD3, really heavy Af yesterday, thinking it is because I started chinese herbs this month, has anyone had this experience?
:pink-babydust: to everyone
I'm out girls, AF arrived over night
Ferrals - fingers crossed that your temp keeps rising....will be here watching and waiting
Millyd - oh hun :hug: I know how your feeling
TTCALC - :hug: to you as well - looks like we are cycle buddies
AFM: looks like another friend is going to announce she is pregnant in the next few days....:wall::wall:....
Ferrals: Sage is a sweet name, Lol @ being a clean freak, I got through stages although there's always that time when I look around and think ''everything has to be perfectly clean RIGHT NOW!" and poor DH is usually in the middle of a cpu game or napping but he helps (it's really the safer option).
Alice: Your dinner sounds much better than sand :P
TTCALC: Good luck with court, you'll kick it in, your doing so well my dear xo
Milly: I'm with Saffy, you never know! Apparantly CP is also one of the more unreliable indicators (so FF tells me!). Your not out yet darlin!
Saffy: It was chicken burgers but it was from this lil store down the street that has free range chickens, so not as bad as KFC! I did eat a lot of chips though - they're my nemesis, I can't understand how ppl can ignore uneaten chips. So strange to me, lol. Maybe AF was heavy cos your having a big clean out? I hope it leads to a positive!
AFM: I hate temping. Did some reading on FF and realised that my day 1 wasn't day 1 cos I got spotting in the evening and AF didn't show properly til the next day, so changed that. Then I realised how bad it is to have the heater on when temping, so had to discard some temps. Then I had to add notes to the ones from sat and sun (cos I drank fri and sat), so now, my chart looks flat. With an odd patch of EWCM that has nothing to do with O'ing. Bugger. So, now I'm just waiting to O. Stupid longer cycle. Scared I'm not ovulating :(
Kit- my charts always looked sh*t, I do shift work too, thats why I gave up it was stressing me out too much. I gave my FS one of my worst charts ( we were camping and getting up at all different times) and you should have seen his face! I just use OPK's and go by them. I don't know how people regularly chart, I find it so difficult but saying that FF educated me a lot on different signs etc.
Hope it becomes clearer for you, maybe eat a few more chips hehe they always make me feel better ;)
I'm going to get my haircut and coloured, will feel better after covering my grey regrowth!
morning all!
Ferrals - did some progesterone googling too! sounding good but certainly not getting my hopes up! Good temp rise for you too love! Mine also went up today! 36.80! PLease keep rising for us both!!! :pray:
iona macca/TTALC - oh loveys, im sorry AF is here... its so crap! :shakehead: sending you a huge hug xx
kit - oh love.... dont worry too much about FF, mine is saying that it isnt sure I o'd but i certainly did! I have the bloods to prove it! just try and be consistent with it ie same times everyday etc xx
saffy - thanks lovely! When i started my chinese herbs 3 cycles ago, mine was medium - day1, heavy day2, med day3 then tapered off too light for a few days! much different to the previous ones i had after m/c! i hope that lining builds up nice and fluffy for you after AF leaves!! and thanks again for your comments yesterday! It helped me so much cause i was ready to have a melt down cause i didnt understand! xx
millyd - i agree with Kit, dont worry about the cervix being open! not accurate! not out yet baby!!!
possum - ooh i hope im paving!!! heheheh! please please please!
alice / kit - Yeah watch TrueBlood too!!! Love it! Its tacky but still great! Very raunchy :redface:
matthewsmum - still thinking of you beautiful, stay strong xx
AFM - 8DPO for me and all good here, im going to POAS on Saturday even though it will prob be too early if anythings happening! had a temp rise this morn (yesterday was 36.65 and today 36.80!) and tonnes of CM, lots twinges and twangs on my left side since 6DPO, very hungry,and slightly sore boobs! And my skin is cleared up! :pray:
Praying for BFP's for all of us!! Good luck to all the POAS'ers for the coming week :bluedust::pink-babydust:
Have a nice day! Melbourne has turned on another ripper of a day! :clap: Wish i wasnt woring so i could enjoy it!
Hi girls, thanks for the reassurance, Dr Google has just confirmed too that soft cervix is not necessarily bad at this time either and as you said KF very unreliable source so I am going to leave it alone as other comments on the net said too much stimulation is not the best either...
KF you crack me up, that sounds like something I would do. I didnt realise temping was such a drama!!! Taking in all those factors hahaha, I would have a chart that looked like yours I think xxxx thanks for the kind words xx
Dory darling, how are you havent heard from you in a couple of days, I miss your energy in here, you have such a soothing presence xxx hope all is brilliant my darling
Ferrals, I still have the sore bbs so thats a good thing, hows your skin, those pussy cats look so cute, and I am not a cat person, little bluey is so cute. Hey in Africans translated little blue is min blou, you could mowgli and minblou??
Alice I have had no appetite lately and my poor family is suffering from lack of tasty dinners, you have given me inspiration to cook something yummy for them tonight, you dinner sounds delicious
Iona hunny, sorry for that cow coming!!! She is what I like to call a skank!! hehehe hugs sweetie
Saffy, thanks for your words of encouragement. I started my chinese herbs on last day of cycle so not sure of effects on AF but I have had abundant cm all month??? so I am certain its from CH. I usually am dry for a couple of days after AF but I had what waslike ewcm from the next day after AF?? so we just bd every day from then hahaha.
Murraycod, I just read your name suggestion for mowgli sis, Sage is a great name, Also Sage is a very cleansing herb you can get sage sticks you burn them, to cleanse your home environment, what a beautiful concept that the new little kitty would add a cleansing energy to the household also...
In other news, DH and I watched the Lovely bones last night. It was a beautifull but sad movie...It finished and we both sat on the couch I was bawling, he was crying like a normal person. I told him I felt so ripped off that our baby didnt get to have a life, not one breath....I am so scared ladies that we wont get our chance. PLease let it be that we do.
Am off to chinese herbalist today for some more acupuncture. I hope he feels my pulse and says "YOure pregnant for sure!! good on you!!" hahahahaha I crack myself up!!!
Love and light ladies
xxxxxxxx
crafty, millyd, ferrals - when are you testing??
was going to test Saturday morning as we are out for dinner sat night. But I am not going to drink anyway, so if I can hold out I wont test until I am late which would be monday. BUt AF always comes by 10am so if she not here by 12 I reckon I will test on Sunday....do you think I can manage all that...I dont think I am pg this time, but am so hopeful....so unsure ... going a bit crazy actually
xxxx
Love to you Thopes
Milly D - thanks for asking after me. Not feeling like I have a lot to offer at the moment, so haven't even been lurking. I'll bounce back. Take care.
Oh Sweet Dory, my loving energy goes to you my sweet xxxxxxx biggest hugs xxxxxxxxxx
Ferrals... Best luck to you sweetie.. I pray the temp keeps rising for ya :)
hahah yes we are kinda alike :)
My DF is kinda like us to he likes to clean ..
I think he has OCD cause he will start worrying if we are down to one roll of toliet paper
HAHA i one day bought a Big package of toliet paper and hide it he was freaking cause it was sunday with no paper.. he does that with are air freshner if its low he worries..LOL
Its funny to watch. :) Hugs!
Saffy yeah i use to be like that with my first hubby.. he hated it went i was alway scleaning around and make him move so i could swept.. either move or help..lol Hugs!
Iona Macca Yay!! lets pray very hard that next month is our and we move over together!! :)

Hi lovelies,
I've been lurking a bit waiting to see all your BFPs.
Tested today 12dpo and BFN. I've had odd syptoms here and there but not really feeling pg. Boobs are bigger but not sore and no real other signs now. I'll test again tomorrow and sat but not really holding my breath.
So glad to see that so many of you might be in the running :crossfingers: Really hoping to see some BFPs soon.
I just got back form chinese herbaliist, he said my pulse was very promising he didnt want to get my hopes up but had to admit it was definitely stronger, different and slippery, which is typical of pregnancy.....
Oh dear I am so anxiously excited about it...I will not test, I will not Test!!!
Hope youre all having great days and brng on the BFP's!!!
Oh millyd, keeping everything crossed for you!!
hanks iona....i wish you were with me in the journey...next month...for us both if its not happening now!!
Nope it's urs and ferrals turn this month, millyd....i'm sure we'll all be waiting anxiously for the results over the weekend
Saffy-yes it is PGD IVF complex and very expensive to.
I'm looking forward to watching my furbabies play DH likes the name sarabi she is the mother of simba from the lion king so Mowgli and Sarabi it is, got to keep DH happy seeing he paid for her and i like it to. i am going to try and hold off poas until the day i pick the kittens up so if i get a BFN i will have them to take my mind off it and wont get upset but in saying that i do have a draw full of first response hpt's if i want to test early i can.
Milly-soooooo excited i hope he is right and you are UTD.
Iona macca-thanks.
AFM-just got home from work i am buggered i still have the sorest boobs i don't know what to think i have felt it the odd month here and there before where they are real sore but this is more than normal and last night when DH and i fooled around i was surprised at the watery cm i had heaps i usually dry up after i O so i don't know what to think but my gut feeling is telling me somthing is different and i am feeling really positive and i can't explain it but i also don't want to get my hopes up so i am not devo when the inevitable happens and i get a BFN.
Off to do dinner and homework uniform ect be back later.
hi everyone ,ionamacca-sorry af came,thanks for the offer but dh picked some up for me..t-hopes-sounding positive for you...ttcalovechild-hope all goes well with court...millyd-good luck for sunday....kitfaerie-hope 'o' comes soon...dory-hope your feeling better soon...thinking of you all
MatthewsMum: *hugs* darling, thanks for thinking of us, your a sweetie xo
Ferrals: I really don't know what to say! I wanna go YIPEEE!!! and jump up and down cos it all sounds so promising, but I dont wanna add pressure! LOL! Umm, cautious good luck? Kittens can distract from anything, I was having such a bad day when George was 10 weeks old and he fell in the toilet and was a bit blue for a while (from the bloo loo stuff), which was very distracting!
Sunbeam: It's good to see your name darlin, your not out yet xo
Millyd: Oooh, sounds good! Mass breakout time perhaps?
AFM I'm hoping I O'd today, CM has dried up a bit, but kicking myself cos I didn't BD last night (I stayed up to watch SYTYCD and DH fell asleep, lol) so hoping we'll be ok!
Gotta go, DH made salmon for dinner - and put TrueBlood on! YAY!!
Mwa xo
Hi Everyone,
Wow Ferrals your Dh sounds so sweet! and the new name is beautiful, I wonder what it means? Im so happy to hear you have sore BB's ;) sounds promising, though i understand about not wanting to get your hopes up!
Ionamacca - Im sorry AF has made her entrance....but it is the beginning of a new cycle and renewed hopes. xxx
TTCalovechild - Good luck with court today, Im sure you dont need it cuz everything is going to go your way!xx
Millyd - Woohoo sounds like you will be an escapee! Keeping everything crossed for you!
Kitf - Are you Oing yet?
Jelly, Jenna, Sunbeam,Saffy, Thopes,Porsche Big hugs to you all, Hope you all have a lovely long weekend.
Murraycod - How are you feeling hun? been thinking of you....
Alice - Glad you found some nice sounding food to eat...how did your soy hot chocolate go?
Crafty - I assume you have been busy knitting booties :), hope the tww isnt being too hard on you! xxx
Again Im sure I have missed some lovely ladies, but my brain is failing me at the moment!
AFM - DH gets home tomorrow night! probably should go and "manicure":lol: not sure he would notice the effort after a fortnight away though....
xxxx
Bons- Sarabi means mirage.
Hello all!
Well i called my gyno this morning and told them AF still hadnt arrived 10 weeks later so they got me straight in for an appointment this arvo. I got a blood test to check my progesterone and hcg levels. Getting the results tomoro morning. If my progesterone is low i have to take provera, if it is quite high ive just gotta keep waiting for AF to arrive. I cant wait to find out the results so i know whats going on! The receptionist cld even see how keen i was to get results so she ticked the urgent box on the form just to make sure they come back before the long weekend :)
It is quite upsetting being in the waiting room with other pg women, my DH was sitting there and a pg lady around my age came in and he just looked over at me with a sad face.. i cant stand seeing him sad so i had to put the brave smiley face on..
I wish i had started taking the vitex 3-4 weeks ago, i wld have rathered give natural a go first, but now im just at the point where i want things sorted out quick!
Good luck to all u ladies who may have a BFP!!!!! How exciting!!! Pls let us know how u go!!!!! :D
Oh and has anyone heard from Ami?? i dont think ive seen her in here for a while.. just wondering how her test results came back.. so Ami if ur lurking how are u going??!!
xxx
Reet-good you managed to get into the doc asap hope the BT results show AF is just about to show her head then you wont need to take anything to bring it on.
Well i am off to bed i am so tired i feel bloated, constipated, crampy and have porno boobs i actually feel like when AF is coming but not due for another 8 days i hate this waiting.
Morning chicky's
I am going insane the box of HPT's in the bathroom draw is calling me i can't stand it i have to get up and rush to the toilet in the morning to bypass the draw so i don't touch them i can't test not yet i am starting to feel like i am imagining symptoms that are the same stupid symptoms i have every month.
:protest::noaf::SAAF::help::crossfingers::bfp:
Ferrals: That's the glory of the TWW, you get real symptoms that you convince yourself are imaginery, you get imaginery symptoms you convince yourself are real, you tell yourself you aren't pregnant, you tell yourself you are pregnant! But you've been talking about symptoms for a while, and your usually pretty certain when your not preg, so I'd hold onto that spark of hope. You can do it Ferrals!
Reet: I hope AF comes real soon darlin, it's horrible waiting for Day 1! But once your on it, it's all systems go!
Bons: Yay! Your DH is coming home! LOL@manicure!
AFM....wait for it....TEMP JUMP! From 36.4 to 36.6, so hopefully I O'd yesterday! And even more hopefully DH's swimmers lasted at least 48 hours. So I think I'm in the TWW. And that would make this cycle a 30 day one, which is so much better. I'm liking the Maca :)
