Bun - I had ms for 8 weeks with Megan and never threw up once. Mind you I had my head over the toilet bowl a few times! LOL I just had a constant sick feeling (a bit like a hangover) that gradually got worse throughout the day - bah to "morning" sickness!! I wouldn't worry at all about not throwing up as long as you are still feeling sick KWIM?
Well its going to be a selfish post from me today - I got my CD21 blood results back today. The tests for recurrent miscarriage are all OK as are the autoimmune tests. The only problem is I have a low progesterone and my ob thinks that I should give Clomid a go. He thinks that I may not be ovulating (although my charts seem to indicate that I am??) or that i am not ovulating "well". I can't start this cycle because its too late (he says I need to take it from CD1 to CD5 and I'm CD4 today) so will have to wait till next month - bring on another short cycle please, please!!
I'm really not sure whether to feel happy that there is something wrong that can be treated, or upset that I probably won't conceive and/or not have another m/c without assistance At this stage I am thinking that we shouldn't TTC this month - mainly because I am worried that if we are successful that I'll have another early m/c, and I don't think I can handle that at this stage of proceedings. Also DH has some work stuff that he needs to go overseas for and if he gets it out of the road this month, then we can start trying again next month when I have started with the Clomid.
And obviousIy have got a few questions and worries about taking Clomid as well. I guess once I sort out all my feelings I will post some q's in the Assisted Conception forum.
AAARRRGGGHH, why can't this just be easy!!!

Hello everyone!
Things are looking good in here at the moment with all the BFP's and a few of you are in the tww how exciting!
Bun- I am so glad things are going so well for you i am so happy for you! Before you know it you will be watching your healthy baby on the ultrasound heart beating away. How long till that app?
Meg- I am sorry you app wasn't exactlly what you wanted to here but at least there is a plan of action in place and that will hopefully bring you a sticky baby!
Satya- I am CD 11 today as well and also noticing the same! I am also doing OPK's and the line is getting darker each day so it cant be too far
How long till you get your lap done? Hope all goes well!
sandielreese- How great! congrats! Let us know how your bt results go, all bfp's in here are a sign of hope for us all!
Pash- I hope you are feeling better? I know it doesn't help much but many women do spot and I got cramps in both my pregnancies. The fact that both the cramps and spotting has stopped is a great sign! Keep positive for your little sticky baby!
Salt- I have my fingers and toes crossed for you this month! It seems one by one everyone is falling pregers and you are next in line!
Kiwigirl- my body has done exactly the same as yours! I feel so much better since my cycle just finished. I actually had a proper af this time so I know now my body is rearing to go! Hopefully we will all get BFP's this month!
I am finally getting into the swing of things with the TTC and am charting my temps as well as using opk's. So hopefully I will catch the egg this month. I am getting really excited but am worried if I dont how let down I will be, its all apart of the process I guess (and lots of dtd!)
Bun- I have not actually been sick but do have an occassionaly sick feeling in my stomach.
I know definately where you are coming from. I keep thinking something will go wrong with me and every thing that happens to my body I get scared and analyse. The first 12 weeks are way worse than the tww. Stay positive... you will get there.
I have been lurking and are silently supporting you all. You all deserve to have that much wanted baby. If you dont mind, I would like to keep coming in and hijacking every now and then.
Pash~ I hope and PRAY you will be fine! Be confident and try to stress as little as possible. I know thats easier said than done but you just have to believe.
Sandielreese~ CONGRATS!! Only more good news to come, right!! Enjoy the next 9 months.
Kiwigirl~ I haven't posted in a while but I was thinking of you, I am glad to hear to feel this AF is more normal. Lately all I have been looking for is if what I feel is normal. I have a question for ya.
I usually get my AF the 23rd or 24th of each month and after my mc/d&c I got my AF on May 10th so I was expecting it June 10th give or take a few days. It still isn't here but I test neg. a couple days ago could it just be that my cycle will go back to normal or to how it used to be??? I want my next AF! Cuz I know I am not pregnant. Anyways enough about me! I hope we continue to get good news from more people!!!
Zionsmom - I m/c in March and my cycle is still not back to normal - I've been getting shorter cycles.
Bun - Don't stress about your morning sickness or lack of throwing up. My mother had two healthy babies and never got a moment of morning sickness. I'm hoping it's a tradition that gets passed down to me when I get pg again! When is your holiday? Have you checked with the airline about their rules on flying when pregnant? Each airline seems to have different rules.
Megsmum - It comes as a shock when you get told that you need medical assistance doesn't it? I get a little annoyed at the doctors who just throw clomid at you when you are having ttc difficulties. Yes it can help when you are not ovulating or not ovulating well but they also seem to throw it at ladies who have no trouble with Oing and ladies with hormone issues. I would have thought that if you have low progesterone that they would put you on some kind of progesterone support, but it appears that most doctors don't seem to do this until you are actually pregnant.... it's a bit of a catch 22 really. I guess they must know what they are doing.... they are the ones with the medical degrees after all but sometimes I wonder. I was put on clomid 10 years ago but it didn't work for me. I was already ovulating and had unexplained infertility (for 3 years at that stage). I suffered major mood swings whilst on it and was glad to go off it. Lots of ladies have had success on it though so it's certainly worth a try.
Cherie - I'm on a waiting list for the lap so who knows how long that could take. The last one I had (10 years ago) I was only on the list for 1 month but I doubt it will be that quick this time. Due to my age the specialist said he will do his best to pull some strings to get me moved up the list. I'm hoping it won't coincide with my work colleagues 3 days off next month (wishful thinking, I know it wont be that quick) as we can't take time off together, but if I couldn't say no or I'd go to the back of the queue. She's not doing anything for her holidays so I guess I could twister her arm if necessary.
We are cycle buddies this month. Let's hope it's a successful one for us both.
Pash - WOW!!! Twins, thats great news. All I will do is tell you this!!! I'm so confident all will be well with you and your 2 little babes. The first thing I thought was how nice for you, after having lost one, to be now blessed with two. It's highly likely you were out with your O date. Stay calm (try!!) for the next 2 weeks. Can't wait to hear the good news from your scan then! I worked out our bub was conceived the day after our wedding day. My lovely DH I think had a bit too much red wine on our wedding day LOL, but never mind, it'll still be our special little honeymoon bub!
Bun - your MS is such a good sign. Can't help but wonder if you have more than one in there aswell!?? This little one is a very strong sticky one Bun, and I'm looking forward to hearing about your positive scan aswell.
Salt - 6dpo!! Getting there. Those higher temps and cranky-ness are all good signs!!! I'm PRAYING you get your bub this cycle Salt.
Satya - I'm sure that ice cream is good for women in early pregnancy aswell so I think I'll join you on that "bowl a day"!!! So pleased you are feeling positive. It's amazing how much pressure is relieved by having a plan, a goal in place. You seem very relaxed!
Hello to everyone else.
Nothing majorly to report with me. I don't have m/s or sore bbs, but I do feel tired, and think I had better have a nap now. DH and I have a big dinner on tonight, and I'm wondering how I'll stay awake. I did another HPT yesterday morning, and the 2nd line came up much darker and more quickly - so that gives me a little reassurance. I don't think I have the energy to go back to the GP to order blood tests. I think I'm happy to let nature take its course, and hang out till the 12 week check with my OB, who will do a scan then. Still, it's a long way off, but I'll try to keep busy.
and my ob thinks that I should give Clomid a go. He thinks that I may not be ovulating (although my charts seem to indicate that I am??) or that i am not ovulating "well". I can't start this cycle because its too late (he says I need to take it from CD1 to CD5 and I'm CD4 today) so will have to wait till next month - bring on another short cycle please, please!!
and that will hopefully bring you a sticky baby!
