Timeforafamily and Chody: Sending lots of sympathetic thoughts your way. Hope there is better news on the horizon for you soon
Kitfaerie: thank you for all the laughs. The 'Braveheart' talk gave me a good chuckle. Also can relate to the 'obsessiveness' factor. The idea of having a baby is on my mind every day. I had to find ways of thinking about other things during the 6 months when I couldn't TTC. Am finding it harder now that I AM allowed. Each month just drags!
Ferrals: Glad your family had such a lovely idea for including Abbi in their birthday celebrations.
Totally understandable that you've been taking some strain after all you've been through. I think it's great that you can be kind to yourselves and cut back on your diet and herbs program if it's not working for you. As you say, there needs to be some relief from thinking about TTC some of the time.
I'm not generally a cat person but the photos of your beautiful kitten were just about enough to convert me. 'Angus' is very cute but i thought 'Mowgli' was cool too (i liked the Jungle Book as a kid).
Murray Cod: hope you're feeling better soon... or not? If preggy symptoms could be more than just the medication may they continue!
Mummyof4: congratulations! hope things keep going along nicely for you.
Bons, TTCALC: thanks for the welcome
Hello everyone else.
AFM: My body is doing all sorts of wierd stuff. Dont know what to make of it. Last cycle on about cd15 and cd16 I got period type pain both sides of my tummy (low down) and tingly bb sensations. I never had these symptoms before around ovulation time but i'm guessing that that's what they were. (AF came cd31). Now, I'm getting some period type pain both sides again but it started cd 10 (now cd 11). i'm usually a 30ish day cycle. it's too early for me to be ovulating isn't it? And i don't remember feeling this before my miscarriage at ovulation time. In the past this was a pg symptom for me but i can't be pregnant cos i not long had my AF.
Anyone else get these types of symptoms around ovulation? Is my body just a bit twitchy hormonally as i'm only in my second natural cycle after my miscarriage (with 3 months on the pill in between)?
mummyof4..congrats sweetie.thats brilliant news.keep safe and rest as much as u can.easier said than done i know.so come on girls,who is next.u all deserve it so so much.i have been lurking here more than in my group and following everything.i put off posting cause i didnt know how to got rid of my ticker but finally worked it out.just a quickie as i dont want to seem selfish.had dildo cam today and measured at 7 weeks 1 day(less than we thought).and girls,i saw jellybeans heartbeat @122bpm..and to our shock there was another gestational sac but it appeared to b empty..not sure how to feel about this...i think we are thankful for one miracle..thank u all so so so so much for being there for me and it will happen for each and everyone of u very soon.sending sticky vibes to all u beatuiful well deserving ladies. I will keep reading as i cant bear to leave xoxo
Possum-magic-i get period type pain when i O usually for 2 days and i can tell which side it is on i seem to get more pain when i O from the right side and i O between day 11 and 15 so i suppose womens bodys have a mind of there own and simple stress can make you O later than normal so unless you use OPK's or some sort of monitoring or BBT it is a guessing game i always thought i O'd on day 11 but now i know it is in a 5 day window that i O so i would have missed that window if i didnt start monitoring my cycle.
And i am a dog lover myself but have always wanted a kitten we had them as children but i can't stand animal hair in the house (i am a clean freak) so i have been looking for a breed with super short hair for a while now and then found the Devon Rex cats sooooo cute.
Murrycod-I need you to come knock some sense into me i can't stand the tww anymore.
Hubba-bubby-congratz to you also hope you have a happy healthy pregnancy
AFM-Well so far the majority want Mowgli for my furbabies name DH wants Angus but the kids think it is to butch and because he is so cute and will be the baby of the house he needs a little boys name so i will wait until i bring him home but i think the kids have decided on Mowgli and yes i got the name from the jungle book.
and as for symptoms i have none same as the other 3 months absolutely nothing so i guess i will be here forever or until you all leave then i turf my computer.
Possum – my ‘o’ pain was just like yours and i use to ‘o’ between CD12-16 so you may be ‘o’ing earlier
Ferrals – it’s still early...don’t give up just yet and of course we will all be here to help you along the way and keep your spirits up just as you do for us
Hi to everyone else
AFM: after having a lil spotting on Sunday, AF hasn’t shown. Hoping she doesn’t show her face this weekend as it’s DF’s 30th party and I’m sure he’ll want some extra loving!!!
Sorry I havent written for a few days, had so much on including a "surprise" inspection by defence....
YAY Mummyof4! BIG Congratulations on a BFP, Good luck for H & H pg!
Ferrals - Your kitten is so Cute! I think pets are a great diversion from everyday life, i used to spend hours playing with my puppy and zoning out. Dont give up yet! i know it must be impossibly hard to see a happy ending, but I truly believe you will get there! You have a wonderful thoughtful family that will help.
T-hopes - I had foils right through my 1st pg with DS, the only thing i noticed was that the dye/bleach was kept away from my scalp so regrowth was worse, maybe get closer to your natrual colour so regrowth isnt as noticable?
Possum Magic - B4 mc i knew excatly when i o'd but now, no idea at all, I think our bodies get so mixed up even they dont know what is happening!
Go Hubbabubba! 122bpm is excellent!
Iona Macca - Hopefully that was a slight implantation bleed! bring on the BFP!
Murraycod - Hang in there sweetie! Still got my fingers crossed for you! How long til AF is due now?
Alice - The POAS can be an obsession, i find my DH is more pushy about it then i am, I hope the day you decide to POAS you get the best possible result a BFP and we can cheer for you! btw i didnt know you could order fertilised chicken eggs online, and I grew up in the country
Kitf - I hope the 2ww is kind to you!
Sorry to everyone i have missed!
AFM - My body is crazy! I wish i knew what was happening, not that it would be any easier! I find im so short tempered at the moment, maybe its the early mornings driving dh to work thats doing it.
My mum is currently ttc baby #6, so I feel a little bit weird that we are going through this journey together.
MUMMYOF4 CONGRATULATONS SWEETHEART!!! YEUP, YOU WILL HAVE TO CHANGE YOUR NAME NOW TO MUMMYOF5!!!!!Darling you are so deserving, and just to think, what a hard time you have gone through in the past 4 months or so, to have a great outcome like this!!! See, we told you so!
Ferrals mate, now stop it!!!! If you braek down, I will break down, so put your happy pantz on and take a deep breath!!! TBH, I feel like crapoli too
But seriouse, dont give up. The extra strain you and DH have both felt these past few months since your IVF attempt, is phenominal, it has been go go go since then, after all of that waiting. Youre right, mabey take a step back from the herbal stuff and just focus on the folate and nutrients side of things. Hey, theres nothing wrong with a JD everynow and then bebe
I understand the added stress your feeling with DH and his job, men seem to take a different route of pain and suffering with greif, he sure has chosen a beuty, but I'm sure it is intentionally away from you as much as he has tried. Hey, if he falls, we are all going to!
Don't stress about his job, dorrs open, others close, and when we look back after all of the chaos from that precise moment in change, it is always for the better.
Darling love the pictures of the cat, can someone teach me how to put photos in here?? Would love to share some with you back XX
Just take care honey, we can and will get through this, even if we get some scratches (mabey lacerations) in the process.
Wow that was long, sorry !
Hubbabubba, glad you are doing well, congrats on seeing your beans heart beat, as for the other sac, well nature has her own set of rules remember XX
Possum, try ride it out. All of us have seemed to have our bodies go through complete craziness after MC, it's like, all bets are off, no rules apply anymore!! As hard as it is, we wit, wait, wait.
TTCALC, sorry about the BFN, I was sure it was going to be different news from you. But thats fine, your stuck with me for another month, hey, I can't be the only one left here the rate you all getting UTD these days!!!
Thopes, sending you a big cyber hug for today XX
Will come back later on for more persies, I have stayed away for a couple days, and now have quite a lot of catching up to do!!
AFM, well, I did what I said I was going to do, I POAS thismorning for a bit of fun, just to see if those 2 pink lines do exist......and they do!! How cool is that!!!! DH made me PROMISE not to do another one until friday, cuz really, the 2 lines just played with both our heads after that!!!! Oh, I wish!!
Wonder how long 5000iu Pregnyl actually takes to get out of the system, I would have no idea, because I have always continued with supporting 1500iu Pregnyl every 4 days Post iui, so sigh, shouldn't have done it I know..........
Had the most awfull felling AF was here with a vengance last night, tummy cramps were so awfull, then (TMI WARNING) I was stuck on the toilet with loose bowels. Was awfull.
Thismorning, just the tiniest hint of AF cramping, so I'm pretty sure I know whats comming, as much as I would love to beleive that stick today, I know it wasd the pregnyl left in my system, and hey, I could never be that lucky, or unlucky, depends how you look at it I spose!!
Ovulation symptoms anyone?
How long til AF is due now?
If you braek down, I will break down, so put your happy pantz on and take a deep breath!!! TBH, I feel like crapoli too
