Trying to Conceive After Miscarriage or Loss March 2010

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!:clap:

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:rolleyes:
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:hug:

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!!

Love to all XXXXX

Hi lovely Ladies!

Sorry I havent written for a few days, had so much on including a "surprise" inspection by defence....
:leap:
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.:hug:

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!:crossfingers: 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:):p

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.

Murrycod-thanks i guess i will just have to feel like crap for a while i have lost the whole ttc desire i am at a stage where i don't care i hope i get it back soon.
And register with photobucket then you download your pics on there and you can get a link to copy and add to your post i use the direct link i just copy and paste it.
And those two lines if only we all got to see them again that would be so nice hope yours stick around and get darker for you.

Bons-that must feel so strange your mum ttc when your are i guess she had you when she was young.

hey girls - just needed to come in here and vent... im feeling so sad today :( Today is my dreaded EDD and its just as sad as i imagined it would be.. everywhere i look '24th MARCH' is just staring at me... I miss my little angel so much... and to make it worse I stupidly poas this morning hoping to turn this sad day into a happy one but nothing but a big fat negative! Im only 10dpo but still upset me....

sorry to mope but just upset, lovely friend at work bought me flowers, so sweet of her... she is having a simular journey so nice to have someone at work that gets me xx

hi everyone ,t-hopes-sending you lots of hugs...ferrals-a vote for mowgli here,he's gourgeous..mummyof4-congratulations...chody47-sorry for your loss,hope your next bfp is here soon...one of the girls need computer for school work so better leave personals with 'thinking of you all'...afm-start fsh injections tomorrow,talked with councellor about options have left if this ivf cycle isn't successful,she mentioned donor eggs to us,which we said we'd try if we have 3 unsuccessful cycles with using my own

Hi Everyone,
sorry for my lack of posting. Just trying to keep myself distracted. And it was working untill AF hit! oh my goodness thought I was doing ok until it came. And is it normal for AF to be so heavy after a D&C? Cos I have never ever bled so much. Anyway think it is slowing down now. Af came only 26days after my D&C I thought that was too soon and I was so hoping that I would get pregnant. But I guess it wasn't to be.

:hug: to everyone :pray: you all get BFP soon

Hey my sweet blossoms. I am so sorry it has taken me all of March to realise that I missed the start of a new thread! I finally worked it out today! I am true to my name - Dory.

I have missed you all so much and have been thinking of you.

Murraycod - I haven't caught up on what's happened for you so far this month. I will write more when I catch up.

I am so honoured and humbled that you remembered me and my fat boy slims birthday ( oliver cat). he had a great cat birthday - snoozing, eating and getting pats, and a new cat toy. Purrrfect.

AFM - I go in for a cerclage tomorrow. Glad I have made the decision, as you know it was tough. Still a bit worried about the possible consquences for bubs, but know in my heart its the right decision for me. If I a honest there is worry in this journey no matter what. Apart from the inconvenience of not eating or drinking from midnight tonight ( and boy is that tough in my present "state") all good here. 14 weeks today.

Will be back later when I have had a chance to catch up.

Take care and lots of baby dust to you all.

Morning all

ferrals I think we are feeling the same I am thinking maybe get rid of my baby stuff the pram,cot,clothes moses basket,High chair and so on no good clogging up the house anymore ! I still have no change on my stick and have no desire to Bdance either so I guess this is natures way why baby dance when there is no eggy there ! I know I ovulated late last month but its day 15 and nothing don't feel anything to be honest except disapointment and sorrow ! But you are younger than me you have a whole 10yrs until you are my age so keep going please for me !

Murraycod oh how nice to see those lines and I know how you must be feeling now wondering is it the meds or is it true it just might be you know keep thinking that it is and you may be rewarded soon ! I was sorting out my knicker draw the other day and found my POAS with 2 lines on from last June oh how it made me cry and I thought you know this is probably the last time this will be in my hand a positive result and its 9mnths old !

Bons would it be so dreadful if your mum had a baby too ? I mean how old is she ? you see I am nearly 45 and I am going to be a granny in Oct and my son is your age and if it really upsets you that much then maybe I should be thinking more about them and not so much about my needs ! just wondering thats all need to get a younger persons opinion is all ! Hope you get a BFP real soon and a chrissy baby !

Dory I so agree with you if I was in your shoes then I would go and have a few stitches infact I would get it sewn up good and proper for the next 5mnths or so ! hope it all goes well come back soon and let us know you are ok !

hubba wow good news on the scan at least you got one full sac and one empty sac I only had an empty one at my 12wks scan and its the worst feeling in the world,
keep us informed on your progress !

T-hopes hi there sorry its a bad day for you My EDD was the other week and you spend your whole time thinking if only ! but its not to be we have to greive and say goodbye and try and try our hardest to get another BFP to fill the empty feeling we have ! I know how you feel be strong and enjoy your flowers ( you never know maybe too early for testing ) :pray:your BFP shows up soon !

well as you can probably tell I am not doing too well my emotions are all over the place crying for no good reason and hating myself for being so weak ! but I guess these hormones of mine are up the swanny and I have to get used to it , Must try to get on with life and not obsess so much ! easier said than done !:dunno: why I have to feel like this !

Craftymummy - No its no a bad thing at all if my mum has another baby, my youngest sister is 6 months, Im very supportive of her decision to ttc, maybe a little scared of the consequences for her health, her last pregnancy was very hard on her physically.She is turning 44 in a few months. It is more weird discussing the best times to bd and cm with her :) and the fact that our cycles are 6 days apart would mean if we both get UTD in the same cycle we will be giving birth together too. I think you are a classic mum, worrying about the impacts on your kids, if you and your DH want another baby then I say Go For It!!!!!

Em - Af for me was very heavy after D &C and I wasnt expecting it to be like that at all, was thinking it would be light and over in a few days......TMI coming up instead i got 6 days of heavy heavy bleeding that went through pads and tampons in record time but no clots, I figure my body must of done a great job of restocking my lining :clap: Good luck ttc this month.

T- Hopes - BIG hugs to you, Im sorry today has been so hard, Be brave :comfort:

Dory good luck tomorrow! Im with Crafty get it sewn up good and proper, So glad you have made it to 14 weeks!!!! Now for 25ish H & H weeks to go!:p

Ferrals - I hope you are feeling a bit better this afternoon, hang in there as hard as it is.:hug:

xxxx

Bons: thanks- good to know it's normal. I use a moon cup and I was emptying it every bloody 15mins to and hour. But luckily it has slowed today.

Craftmummy9: :hug:

em-glad it has slowed down,sorry to sound stupid-might be all this nose spray i'm sniffing but what is a moon cup?...craftymummy-Don't get rid of all that baby stuff just yet,if it hurts to look at it,could you put into storage somewhere?..bons-you reminded me of a movie called father of the bride 2(i think)great show where mum & daughter are utd together & actually go into labour hours apart...dory-hope all goes smoothly tomorrow.Be thinking of you...

Mummyof4: YAY!!!! So excited for you my dear!! Keep us updated on everything, we love hearing happy news!

Em: Yep, my first AF was heavier than usual, and went for a day or two longer than usual. I was delighted to have it though, cos it meant I could start TTC again! Getting the second AF was really hard though, I cried lots. Feeling good about this cycle, whichever way it goes (oh I say that now!)

Dory: Eeeee! That's so exciting, I'm glad you feel good about the decision, that's the most important thing - that you feel your making the best decision for you and your baby. I agree with everyone else, aint nothing coming out of there til it's baked good and proper!

Hubba: There's a baby in there and it's doing well, concentrate on that. Hugs to you darling xo

Thopes: Oh no, that sounds like such a hard day, you did so well in getting though it. Hopefully it's just too early and your BFP is just around the corner. We're thinking of you xo

Murraycod: Ah the joy of two lines :) I so so SO hope that those lines stick around for you babe.

Crafty: I O'd on day 21 last cycle, I did a lot of reading and a late O is apparantly a good thing, cos it shows that estrogen is still being produced in good amounts, google said that early ovulation is not such a good sign, as the egg possibly isn't good enough. So late is ok! Late is good! Save your energy for the serious bd'ing that will happen in the next few days when you do O.

Ferrals: Hugs to you sweetheart.

AFM well I *think* I o'd a few days ago, hopefully. Had only scant EWCM, which is unusual for me, but hopefully all the bd'ing meant I still caught the egg. Haven't had any more for a few days, which makes me think that I've already O'd. At least if this cycle doesn't work, I'll know I did everything I could. Still obsessing, not getting anywhere near as much uni stuff done as I'd like, lots of faffing and daydreaming. Friends of mine are putting off TTC for a couple more months, the circumstances surrounding it isn't so good, but I feel a bit relieved, I kinda feel like I'm MEANT to be preg before them. I want to be happy for them when it does happen, and the best way for me to be happy is to already be preg. Oh I don't like what this whole thing is doing to me, I miss my generous happy self :( I can't control when they/me get UTD, but I can control my reactions, and I'm gonna be happy for them! No matter what. Theoretically, lol. And I find out if I'm preg or not in 2 weeks. I can wait 2 weeks. Two long, painful weeks.

As usual, love to everyone! xo

Matthews Mum: probably easier to google mooncup- but you use it like a tampon- but it collects the blood instead of absorbing it.

KitFaerie: :hug: hun I know what you mean about thinking you should be pregnant before your friends- I know others that will probably be having babies soon and I want to be pregnant so I can be more happier for them- because it's tough otherwise.

CONGRATS!! MUMMYOF4!!! Im soo happy for you

thanks all.. it just wasnt my month....
Still waiting for AF no sign of her at all.. Last month i started on the 25 so i wish she get here so i can get started again ..


I cant believe last 2 months we had alot of BFP.. So happy for you all..

for us still TTC good luck to you all!!

Crafty-if you have a 33 day cycle you wont O until day 19 so don't drop your bundle just yet and as you know your E2 was low when checked so just means it might be harder to detect on monitor until you get the LH surge and peak that will show up.

morning everyone-kitfairie-hope your the 1st cab off the rank within your group of friends...em-thanks for the info...ttcalovechild-best of luck to you as well,we've got keep these bfp's coming....ferrals-keeping distracted in your tww???

Hello lovelies,

Sorry I have been MIA for a while I am stuggling to find time to read all the posts.

Mummyof4 congratulations on your BFP:happyforyou: Lets hope the BFPs keep coming.

AFM- I'm with you KitF, I miss my happy self. I'm struggling at the moment and very sick of being sad all the time. I know what you mean Ferrals about wanting to get rid of all your baby stuff, I about think that often. I have decided I need to take a break from BB again (though I will be checking for BFPs) as I just feel I have nothing to give and seeing everyones struggles is making me sadder. I'm so sorry, I hate to go but I really need to try and focus on something else for a while and get my strength back. The melt down I had a few weeks back has really knocked me for 6. Before that I can honestly say that I only ever lost total hope of ever having a baby about 1% of the time now I feel like my hope of every having my baby is only about 10% total. I can no longer picture myself with a fat pregnant belly let alone with a baby in my arms. I will keep trying, though AF is still not back yet and have decided to go to the counsellor more regularly.
I am sad to leave and I hope I will be strong enough to come back very soon.

Love you all, you are fantastic, strong, courageous women.

sunbeam-you'll be missed,good luck with the rest of your journey,hope the councelling helps you ,will be thinking of you,hope we meet again in a pregnancy thread.

Hi Ladies !

SORRY i havent been around - i have been struggling with the demons big time ! Stressing flat out that if i do manage to fall pregnant again that i will just have another m/c etc etc. I have gone from feeling really excited about another baby to really scared to try. AF turned up yesterday so our little "sneaky saturday" didnt work anyway. Strangely i wasnt too worried. I think i knew it wasnt going to happen.

I have been reading but just havent been able to bring myself to post - feeling very down.
We have decided to take the boys on a family holiday in September. Off to the Gold Coast and then to stay with my brother and his family for a few weeks inland from Rockhampton. So excited and its ages away ! It will be the first holiday we have all had together since before DS#3 came along.
It has helped having something else to focus on that isnt related to TTC.
We have even talked about postponing TTC til January next year - just enjoy life and not stress about it. We have so much going on as it is and i need to find that happy place again. I feel like i have lost me - i feel like my family has lost me :cry:
We haven't seen a few family members for ages cause i'm just not interested - no motivation - would rather do my own thing !

So at this stage - i wont be in here anymore - well - until we start TTC again...

I want to thank you ALL for your support and strength and love ! :hug:
You all rock !
Good luck - i will be watching for BFP's. When i come back i dont want to see any of you in here - i mean that in the nicest possible way - you should all be in Bellybuddy groups !

Don't give up hope - please !

Sorry for the me, me, me post but i am way too far behind to catch up.

Love you all - take care !
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

:hug: :D

Thanks for all the :rofl: xoxo

Hi all,

I am new here, Hubby and I lost our little angel in February and we are currently enduring the 2ww. I have symptoms I am sure, and then next minute I think I am crazy and making it all up. I am 7 dpo today, I dont do temps but i cant wait t o be able to test and know for sure. Why is it that it seems like forever.....
Congrats to all the BFP's out there, hopefully the energy will be shared around;)

Also, hubby and I bd this morning and I swear it felt differnet physically , it was like he was bumping my uterus. Anyone evr experienced tis b4?

Babydust to all
xxx

jahzara-wishing you all the best in the future,you'll be missed,hope you'll be in the belly buddies group too.

Hi ladies

Sunbeam and Jahzara-sorry to see you go but i totally understand i also feel like i need a break it just gets to much i want to sell all my baby stuff and try to forget the whole idea of a baby i was happy before we went on the ttc wagon and now every day is consumed with waiting to O waiting to BD the TWW and waiting for AF then there is the whole mental anguish of can i get pregnant again will i get pregnant again will the baby be healthy it all gets to much i just want ME back the ME i use to be the ME i was before my life fell to pieces and comming in here and talking to you all helps me not to burden my family or DH with all my worries but somtimes reading other posts and seeing BFP after BFP can bring all the pain back don't get me wrong i am happy for anyone who is lucky enough to get a BFP it just reminds me that i am still here and don't know what to do or how to move on without a baby i don't know how to be not TTC it is so imbedded in my mind and life how do i remove it and move on.

AFM-i feel like i do every month not pregnant i am getting premenstral and anxious and irritable normal symptoms of AF comming for me so i guess i am already out of the running this month.

oh Ferrals,
i know exactly what you mean. I wish I could be the old me, But i'm so obsessed now with every twinge, every possible sign, I cant remember what its like toi not be ttc. :wall:

I have a symptom tho I want to run by any readers/takers. I am currently 7dpo, this morning we bd and I felt like my cervix and uterus were enlarged, like they got bumped and moved....its hard to explain.... I also felt this around 4-5dpo plus day of ovulation during bd. Has anyone else felt this and turned out to be pregnant???

Soo so hopeful:pray:

hey gals - thanks for giving me feedback on the hair dye stuff! much appreciated! And for all the love for my edd yesterday. your such good girls!thank you!

dory - darlin, i hope everything went well today. i know you made the right choice! look after yourself!
ferrals - dont give up, still early days since o time!
sunbeam - sorry to see your having a hard time too, i think we all need a break from here sometimes. we seem to obsess in here as much as we obsess out there! take your time, were here when your ready xx
matthewsmum - donor egg sounds like a great back up plan to have... but fingers crossed you see that bfp b4 you have to worry about that. 1 step at a time.
crafty - yep all aboard the TTC Rollercoaster, im sorry your on the down slope today, i hope it takes you up higher tomorrow xx
kit - you can do it love!! im almost at the end of mine and looking back, it has gone fast! you have easter in there so it should go quick!!!
Jahzara - great idea for the holiday! something exciting to focus on! Im off to the gold coast in 5 weeks! cant wait!
milly - maybe a little to soon after o'time to tell.... maybe your cervix was low after o'time and thats what you felt??? i hope it is for you though sweety!
sorry not many persies but im behind again after only missing 1 day!

AFM - creeping up to the end of my 2ww, af is due anytime from Mon - Fri (never know) had a real dull ache in lower tummy all day yesterday/today (i hope implant pain ;) ) and achy legs, lots of cm, bb's are super sore but this all mimics AF so who knows! Temps are still over 37 so I just have to hope they stay up! cervix is high and soft - not feeling too confident though. time will tell i guess.

night loveys
xx

Well she hit me today.. :wall: but im ok im use to it.. So were just back @ step 1.
Best of luck to all
Personals later
HUGS TO ALL!!

Milly-aren't our bodies a pain in the a### i get similar feelings sometimes after O i get mild period type pain and a dragging pulling sensation around 5dpo then some days my uterus feels heavy and i have those symptoms when i am pregnant and sometimes when i am not then other months i get absolutely no symptoms at all AF just turns up without any warning signs so i just feel the same as i do every month i have been having the dragging pulling sensation on my right side for days now and when i have been pregnant with all my kids the placenta has always implanted on the right side so every month when i feel it i think maybe this is the month but it turns out not to be i hope your symptoms are the real deal.

T-Hopes-glad you got through your EDD ok.
Looks like we will be due for AF around the same time i am due wed-fri so lets hope we can get some more BFP's around here.

AFM-I had a meltdown last night i got home from work and just felt really anxious and stressed just about burst into tears at the stupidest things i felt really irritable didn't want to talk to anyone i just wanted to be left alone and i couldn't explain why i guess it was hormonal which just tells me AF is around the corner.

Hi everyone,

Lots to get through and running late for work so this will be a quickie and sorry to miss anyone.

MatthewsMum - GOOD LUCK WITH THE CYCLE!!! You must have started your FSH now - how exciting!!! Oh I so hope it works for you - crossing my fingers and toes. Donor eggs...we are going through similar thoughts. After my mc a very dear friend who I have known since I was 22 told me her daughter (who I have also known since that age but she was only 8!) offered to donate me some eggs (she is 26 now). I was blown away with her offer but also a bit weirded out about the fact she is the daughter of a friend, IYKWIM. Everytime I see her now I think about it but I'm hoping we will get our BFP in May and I won't have to think about it anymore. And I hope the same for you!!

Bons - sorry you are feeling short tempered love. Everything seems all over the place after a mc - I hope you are feeling brighter soon.

Thopes - hugs for your due date. What a sad day for you and I'm with the other girls and hooping that you just POAS a little early and that the BFP is hiding there waiting for you and after your last post, well - seems like it could be true! Fingers crossed.

Dory so good to hear from you! I think of you often. I had no idea what a cerclage is until I read further and I'm with Kit there's nothing coming out of you my dear til it's good and done! x

Hubba great news all is well with you!

Em - ah it's a hard journey Em. I'm gonig through it for the first time too and it is very up and down, as you can see with the posts here. Good to hear from you again and hang in there lovely

Crafty - sorry you are feeling so low. I really hope and wish for a BFP for you and Ferrals and I feel it will come but it's hard feeling like it won't ever happen. I hope you found Kit's info about late O'ing reassuring. Fingers crossed.

KitF my love you so are a generous and happy being - in here anyway! I'm sure that even when you feel you are not your bright self that you are still very loving and giving to those around you and I'm sure your friends appreciate you very much for the wonderful friend that you are. You'll get your sparkle back girl - we all feel like this from time to time, it's part of the rhythm of life (so to speak) (though that could be the intro to a really bad song!). May this TWW fly by and with it a BFP to announce.

MurryCod - Pregnyl lasts about 4-7 days (per shot) and some wear off much quicker (I asked about it last cycle when I fell pg) soooooyou just might be?

Ferrals - hugs to you

Jahazra and Sunbeam - I know where you are both coming from, best wishes to you and hope to see you in the BellyBuddy forums soon.

AFM - AF arrived yesterday (second since the mc) and with it a sore heart. Had a blue with my DH last night and went to bed early. Warning; TMI. My period is really watery and light and I'm worried that the lining isn't growing back properly. The first AF after my mc was quite heavy but this one the complete opposite so don't know whether I should speak to the dr or see a herbalist. Don't want to find it isn't developed enough when we go to do our cycle after all this time waiting.

Love to everyone - sorry to miss you in the persies but gotta run. So much for the quickie!!

Alice x

afternoon all,ferrals-i've still got my fingers crossed for you...t-hopes-hope af stays away..dory-how are you feeling?..millyd-fingers crossed for you too.Our bodies sent us mixed messages,i know it's hard but we just have to wait it out ,i think...murraycod-Where are you?You okay or as okay as anyone can be in this journey?..ttalovechild-sorry af turned up it's still hard even when your expecting her..alice-sorry you &dh had a tiff,hope all is sorted now,what a lovely gesture of your friend's daughter,but as you said hope you don't need to take her up on her offer.If we need to go down that road clinic said they will help us advertise,spoke about adoption,but dh age is a obstactale as well as having other children,anyway yes i've had 2 injections,they've put me on 225iu,still sniffing up the spray,blood test came back okay,hope scan on friday show good results.If worried about af maybe ask dr,might just be your body still settling down though.

Matthews Mum: Glad your doing ok, you sound so on top of it all! Very excited to see the outcome of the cycle!

Alice: Thanks, you made my day :) It is sweet of your friend's daughter to offer her eggs, fair enough about being a bit weirded out, but if you needed too, I'm sure you could get past that bit pretty darn quickly! Fingers crossed for that May baby! (I was born in May, I can highly recommend it)

Ferrals: I'm sorry it's been so tough lately, you've had so much to deal with and you've been strong for so long, totally ok to have a meltdown. Have two if you want. I know you think AF is coming, but you never really know until it shows up. Your still in.

TTCALC: Crap. I'm sorry sweetheart. This month! This is the one!

T-hopes: It does sound promising! I hate how AF and preg symptoms are so similar! Testing soon?

Milly: It is tough, that's why I'm so grateful that everyone in here understands! Not sure about CP though, I know if your preg it's meant to stay soft and high, so could be?

Jahzara: It sounds like you've put a lot of thought into your decision, I think your family is very lucky to have you! I really hope you return to your family better than ever and come back to TTC feeling happier. I hope we're not here too though, lol, xoxo

Sunbeam: Aww darling, gonna miss you!! When you feel like you can't see a future with a baby in it, remember that we can. Until you feel strong enough to come back, I'll be your future-see'er ok? And I see your little girl in your arms. I'm glad your stepping up the counselling, you look after yourself ok. We'll see you soon xoxo

Em: How you going sweetheart?

AFM: Oh my goodness I hate this part! I'm really distracted and irritable. DH said he thinks I'm UTD cos the last time I was this irritable was when I was preg! I really wasn't sure how to take that :shakehead: I'm not sleeping well, boobs get achy on and off, had some cramping today. And apparently DH can't do anything right (his words, not mine). Not sure if that counts as a symptom. Could be though. I worked out dates and I think I'm 7 DPO. So I'm in the 1 - 2 week wait. I hope it goes quick while my husband still loves me!

kitfaerie-our poor dh's really cope the brunt of the 2ww,hope his instinct are right this time around.Glad i sound like i'm on top of it all,i don't feel it,trying to keep the big picture in mind though.afm-my ds asked if the easter bunny is going to come to matthew so i've got some ornamental eggs to put round his grave,every occasion is saddened after a loss.

Ladies just a quickie ( well the only type I will be getting in the near future) ( ROTFL). All went well with my procedure yesterday. Dr very happy. I am recovering well. Very light headed and tired but not sleepy. Not too much bleeding or cramping. I am just happy to be resting and not a lot of energy to read all your posts and reply. Sorry. Thanks for thinking of me. Thinking of you all.

Alice- sorry AF turned up for you and maybe because your last AF was so heavy this one will be lighter to give your lining time to recover.

Mathewsmum-i hope this ivf cycle all works out good for you DH and i have decided we will not go down that road again even to speed up getting pregnant we will just go with nature now i no longer want the stress i know we said we would in may if we were not pregnant by then but i was pregnant a year ago so i can do it again if my body will let me if not then so be it but i have another 2-3 years left in my if i can keep this FSH level down.

Kitfaerie-OMG i feel the exact same the last two days i have felt so impatient and short tempered and very irritable i don't remember if i felt this way when i was pregnant last time maybe i just didn't take any notice my boobs are real sore but they were real sore the last two months also so that means nothing.

Dory-glad everything went well hope you feel better soon.

Murrycod-how are you my sweet i think about you every day i hope you are doing ok and crossing my fingers that one little sperm made it to one of your eggs not all 5.

AFM-seeing i O'd on day 16 i am about 7dpo AF is due in 5 days but i expect it to be two days late so next friday (my Bday) i am praying i get the best present ever but i am not very hopeful just don't feel anything different but i have been shopping up a storm for my furbaby Mowgli.

Hello all DH here... just wanted to say a hello and respond to Kittens writings...

"AFM: Oh my goodness I hate this part! I'm really distracted and irritable. DH said he thinks I'm UTD cos the last time I was this irritable was when I was preg!

First of all let me sing all of you my praises for being so caring and loving for each other and of course my dearly beloved. You have my Koodos.

Second I would like to correct a slight miss quoting... I in fact said my DW (Dear Wife... that's right I can use acronym too! WOOT!) was irrational. No sugar coating here ladies but it is said with love.

Finally I would like to address the words "I can't do anything right" by posing a rhetorical question...
If a man is in the woods all alone and there is no one to here him speaking... is he still wrong? Lol.

My love to you all and my kindest thanks to all of you for being apart of this wonderful sisterhood.

I wish you all the best BD-ing and hopes for many BFP's (unless I got those ones wrong and there insulting in which case forgive me lol.)

Thank you all Ladies,

The floor is yours and once again Male free.

XO's

Hi there

Well kit I guess you best watch what you are saying in the future ! someone will be correcting you !:ROFL: by the way welcome MR KIT so nice to hear your views !

I guess all DHs cop it in the TWW say something useful for goodness sake ! but of course I have no idea what that would be I am a women and anything a man says in the TWW is just not useful !!!!! ha ha,
Lets hope the male instincts are right and we are getting another BFP in here really soon.

Ferrals keep going honey you can do it think positive and remember there is always next month and I will be here thats for sure, probably on stik number 32 still with one line :ROFL:

Matthews mum go girl you sound really on the ball and very positive thats great will be thinking of you the next few weeks ! hope you get a good crop of eggies !

Alice sorry you and DH had a ding dong guess we all have them from time to time, its the pressure of this game and feeling inadequate at times but its ok we all do it and we all get through it so send him a sexy text will make him smile if nothing else !

MURRAY how are the triplets doing ! oh the suspense is killing me is it still 2 lines or not ? praying for you honey at least one little spermy and one egg had to meet I just know they did !

everyone else hope your doing ok its tough in this forum but it does have its advantages keeps us all sane ! well I think so anyways !

AFM well day 17 still no nothing no CM no LH surge no nothing but did the deed anyways and will do every other day for a while and pray I get to ovulate if not I am wondering what I can take to help me I tried the vitex and its a no no for me anyone got any ideas ? seen some chinese womb warming tablets and wondered if they any good and also some mother tablets suposed to help after mc and with ovulation guess I am getting desperate my birthday is looming next month the big 45 !
speak soon and see who is the next BFP on here we had 2 already there has to be another one real soon they only come in 3s

Hey Mr kitfaerie-be careful with the word irrational around a women in the tww it could get you into trouble i would say that us women become slightly anxious and maybe a little irritable but considering the crazy hormones that race around our bodies and send us batty the best thing i that i think men should say and do during this tww is just yes dear what ever you say dear and of course you are right dear lol because as you should know even when men think they are right us women let them think that but we still believe that we know best and women are never wrong.
Who am i kidding we can be complete nut job's with this whole process but if it wasn't for our sweet understanding hubbys we wouldn't be able to schedule BDing into our daily routine LOL( just kidding ) no if it wasn't for you DHubbys we wouldn't have any laughs in this thread which is something we need more of around here.

Crafty-my money is on day 19 they are just a bit slow to get out of the gate maybe they are a bit like mine DH says ours are on walking frames and need a bit of a kick in the a##e to get moving.
And i am feeling a bit desperate to i don't want anymore Bdays i am banning Bday's from now on i will stay 35 for the next 5 years thankyou very much.

post came through twice!

well that was unexpected, hearing from one of the DHs!! Hello Mr KitF and thanks for your post. You've got a great Mrs there, you hang on to her and treat her right or we'll send the Hormone Girls around to sort you out!! Not that we'll need to by the sound of it...aww you two!!

MurryCod MurryCod...when can we find out?!

MatthewsMum - that's really good you're on 225 - my FS had me on 400 last time and there's no where to go really from there - so I reckon you'll get some great eggs happening!

Milly sorry for missing you earlier - it's hard not to think about every single twinge and tweak and symptom - I'm so not looking forward to that part of things. Here's hoping they are BFP signs for you.

Crafty - hope you catch that egg soon!

Ferrals - you could be our next one, you never know!

Night everyone - thinking of you both Sunbeam and Jahazra and wishing you both all the best xx

Alice

PS TMI WARNING: Aunt Flo turned into Aunt Flood so I think everything is OK after all!

Hello ladies...
Im new here. I am TTC after an ectopic in feb. Dr said wait one to two cycles so of course ive waited ONE! 6DPO at the moment. I only have one tubes so we'll see.... Normally fall rather quickly but like i said some say i have lost 50% fertility, other Drs say i have lost nothing....

I hope to get to know you all better and i hope that there are a few BFP this month (always keeps me positive when i hear others having good news!)

Welcome Tegam. I too have one tube as I lost my other to ectopic pregnancy. Hope this next bub is also quick to fall.

CD14 for mejust getting into the BD business end now. All going well except my EDD is coming :wall:

Thanks ladies (Ferals, Iona Macca, Murray Cod, Bons) for sharing your 'o' symptoms. i had so many procedures after my miscarriage (3 d & c's) i get worried about problems developing (eg scar tissue) and i was starting to worry that my wierd mid-cycle cramping (unusual for me) might mean something bad. Sounds like it could be just normal ovulation symptoms which are a bit stronger at the moment cos the ovaries are just cranking back up after some time off!

Congrats Hubba bubba!

T-hopes: sorry your EDD was a sad day (though to be expected) and you get a BFP very soon.
Mathew's mum: good luck with your injections/next cycle.
Dory: Glad cerclage went well.
Sunbeam: sorry to hear you're having a sad time. Hope the you find your 'sunshine' again
soon.
Alice: what a lovely generous offer your friend's daughter made. It is amazing to know when people have such love for you. Of course it would be great if you don't need to take her up on it. Does this mean you are doing IVF again in May?

Kit: thinking of you in the oh-so-agonising tww! I'm impatient just to be there: still trying to work out whether i've laid my egg yet! Great to hear from your DH too although for a second i was very confused by the post...then i realised it wasn't 'you' speaking!

Tegam: welcome and sorry for your ectopic pg. I can understand not wanting to wait as long as they say. I cheated a bit on my 'wait' too. Was told to wait three months after my last d & c and I did but as I was bleeding for the first of the three months i don't think i was meant to count it and should have waited one more.
