Possum, the only thing I can tell you that could help, is when you are replying, you can scroll down that same page so you can read over the latest posts. Tis what I have to do anyway! I have a bad memory!
OH Ric my beutiful !!!!! Sorry you got a bfn, but you are a week in a new cycle now, so hope this is the one for you!!XX Fingers crossed!
I would love to swap jobs with you. I am a nurse, have been for 12yrs, and I am starting to loathe it. I wan't to resign, but it is paying for all of my FS bills at the moment so just have to stay focused. I am now officially left out of the new pregnancy announcements at work, 2 in a week now. Everyone is looking at me, for my reaction, and have heard some giggles behind my back. I hate the place.
KitF, I have tried many times, to ignore what niggles I feel, to my demise, it is totally impossible!! Even now, I hate what my body is telling me, because deep down I know it's just the fertility druggs I have had. GGrr!!
Hope you do O this month, and on time XX
Crafty, I will get back to have a browse at the link you provided, sounds interesting!
Mummyof4, mabey you have experienced an implantation bleed?? Since you tested and got a bfn, if implantation has only just happened, the levels will almost be certainly too low to read.
A few girls have experienced implantation, a lot don't though.
I know Eliselouise got a bfn all the way up to when AF was due, and she was UTD!! So not over untill the Witch arrives full flow!XX
Mildez, my Fs told me that it was near to impossible to get my lining thick enough within the week to do my transfer, so, in saying that, I have no idea why they should be worried about me falling PG naturally (well, not naturally, but you know...) if the lining is too thin?
So as excited as I am about the large number of possible chances I have floating around inside right now, they wouldnt stick anyways.....
PLUS, why now, after 5yrs TTC, 1 MC, 3 iui's and 1 IVF attempt, would it happen now....I should just focus on next month, save the dissapointment!XX
Enjoy CD6 honey XX
Ferrals, if you get a chance to lurk, will be thinking of you XX
Snugglybean, I am desperate to know your beta levels!!!XXX Love to you X
This darn evil Trigger of Pregnyl is doing tricks on my brain, have now experienced every side effect in the book, sore boobs, peeing like a racehorse, butterflies in my tummy, grrrr, I hate Pregnyl.
I guess I need to join you guys now. It's all happened pretty quick.....just over a week ago I got my BFP and then on Tuesday (at 6 wks) I lost it.
Anyway, DH and I want to start TTC ASAP. My doc has said that they recommend waiting a month but I have to go and see her Mon and I'm gonna plead my case lol.
Good luck to everyone and I hope we all get BFP's really soon, and I hope that the pregnancies result in lots of lovely babies!
*gulp* sorry ms cod. I felt so rubbish today that I forgot to make an appointment. No betas til at least this time next week. If I even get them.... I have spent so much of the last year watching betas that I'm not sure if I want to. But on the other hand, I kind of want to know!
On other things... anyone taking maca root? I took powdr caps for the whole of my last cycle. Who knows if that was it, or if this was just our lucky month - but I know how it feels to be keen to try anything! Give it a go if you're keen.
Just popping in for a quickie while DH is outside having a smoke I give up!
Ric - for a new job for you with no lifting and less stress. I'm picturing you in a swively chair, giving lots of instruction to other people, and having someone bring you a nice hot cup of tea while you gaze out the window at the beautiful view. Don't know what you are doing, but that's all I can come up with tonight And hope this month is the one for you too.
MurryCod - and a new job for you too! ggrrrr at those horrible people.
Ferrals - thinking of you and hoping you and your DH can get through this weekend. The presentation you made for Abi was so beautiful - she is with you, of that I am certain. Just can't put into words how sorry I am that you are going through this. I hope the strength of others facing their EDDs helps you in some way. You have lots of love and support here, as you know. xx
Mummyof4 - sorry you are not doing so well. It's such a big thing to come to terms with and I know there are times when you just want a rest from the grief but it has it's own path and we just have to be gentle with ourselves along the way. I know what you mean when you say you feel like you're being punished - try not to think of it like that because you haven't done anything wrong to deserve this. I hope you get your BFP soon.
Hi to everyone. Possum and Mildez, Chody47 (welcome and sorry you had to come here but hope it helps). How are all our other lovely women? Jahazra? Sunbeam? Em? MissK? Iona-Macca? MatthewsMum? - hope all is going OK with you. Em, I hope you are feeling a bit better.
My new job is mind-numbingly boring. It is a bit of a change of pace for me so I guess it'll take some getting used to and like MurryCod, it's paying the bills so I just have to get on with it. At least I'll have time to check in here during the day and maybe keep DH off my back about all this computer time.
I had two lovely experiences today - a beautiful thoughtful email from one of my many SILs (did I mention I have 10? DH is one of 11!) after hearing from my MIL about our mc. It really was lovely. And tonight we went to visit good friends who have just had their second daughter yesterday and were really touched that they asked how we were going after the mc ion the middle of their happy excited time. We ended up having a funny conversation about baby names (they haven't got one yet!) and it was just so nice that we could talk about it without dwelling on it and share the happiness of their new baby and also a bit of sadness for our loss all at the same time. It was so unlooked for, I guess is what I'm saying, that it really touched me. A nice contrast to last weekend.
Take care everyone - hugs to all. Snuggly I'm still so thrilled we got a BFP in here - yahhh!!! Hope the poo smell is gone
Hi, I'm so glad I'm reading these posts again. This site feels homely. Read lots of your posts in the last day, so thought I better say hi.
I first registered in December.
sorry to hear Chody of your loss. Did you say that you got your positive at 6 weeks? A short lived +ve for you. so sorry.
T-hopes thanks for the light humour, What can I say?
Alice, I think I can so understand the tears at work. Those curly interactions that are so unexpected. I was all like that on Monday, just crying without being spoken to even, went home very early from work, I spoke to my boss and said I think I have ‘acopia’. I’m a nurse and that’s what we diagnose some patients with. It actually goes on our handover sheet. I just want a little bubs in my arms and was sick of caring for everyone else who have already got their children and grandchildren. A major moment. But back to work yesterday, and found I still have some credibility. I think. Gosh, hormones..
I hope I can catch up with all the lingo. It’s like learning another language. Can anyone explain RAKer? And DF? Gosh I’m a bit slow but getting impatient with my mind.
I'm about to put the next lot of money down for the down reg ICSI cycle and go again. It has been such a journey since Nov. First ever cycle and bam BFP then lost our poor darling at 11 weeks 2 days. What a roller coaster. It’s making me cry again thinking about out little “0.56” Yes that’s what we called our little one, we were making a lot of fun about names and getting all star treky with names. Just joking around. 0.56 was the 6-7 week ultrasound Crown Rump Length. So that’s what stuck. Lots of tears.
Despite all that I’m ready again to count some follicles and watch them grow. Don’t we love the vaginal ultrasounds? The doctors are increasing the dose this time to get more eggs, as we didn’t get any frozen bubs.
Murraycod, that’s what half my discussion with my boss was about. I was loathing feeling unappreciated. We talked about me looking for a new job. Same, same Alice. My work pays the bills. Sometimes though I feel so trapped. And other times it's not so bad. Murraycod, are your work colleagues really that insensitive about you wanting to get pregnant? How do you handle that? I have handled the latest pregnanacy announcements at work by just keeping a little distance. Can’t cope otherwise. Used to feel all gooey gar gar for the girls but it’s different now. I am reminded of 0.56 each time or the fact that I’m not a Mum...... but hang on I am, just in a different way.
Mummyof4 – a big hug for you thinking about little Kyarna and fingers and legs crossed for the present.
timeforafamily Hope all works out when your ready.
Alice - Glad you were able to have the conversation and be able to feel ok about it all. Its good that you were all able to talk.
chody47 - Sorry that you have had a lose. I hope you get to ttc as soon as possible.
AFM - feeling better today. Have a couple of bad days but trying to be strong. We had a good talk last night and we are going to wait till i get AF again at least to try again.
Have to go to woolies quickly apparently. Coming back on when i get back
Hope your all feeling a bit better.
Hopefully more good news for everyone asap.
Time4aFmly, yes, the girls at my work are not the nicest bunch I have had to work with. Small town stuff, and I'm a newbie here, well, 5 yrs, but not classed as a local untill youv'e been here for 20 odd yrs and have a family, both criteria I do not qualify!XX
I have a really nice bunch of friends in town, but not work friends, they are very cose knitt, having coffee and whinging about eachother, I'd rather go down the river with my dogs and go fishing!!
I hope we can be there for eachother during this IVF craziness we go through, there is a few here at the IVF stage now, all very supportive. Good luck this time round, and may this one be the one that gives you a beutifull little baby XX
Chody, so sorry for your loss darling, it is sad you are in this thread, but welcome with open arms XX
We all totally understand your eagerness to want to start TTC again straight away, and we all wish you luck that it can happen quickly and successfully for you XX
RAK is a Random Act of Kindness, Bellybelly had a thing in Feb, that when you paid for platinum membership, you could also nominate someone to go platinum for free. It was the greatest month, all warm and fuzzy stuff!!XX
I got a RAK, and am prety sure who gave it to me..........but we don't officially get to know who, that was the idea that made it so special.
There is a thread called 'forum help and abbreviations, I had to print that page off in the beginning cuz it was like learning a new language!!
DH Dear Husband, AF Aunt Flow, BD Bed Dance, you will get the hang of it X
Snugglybean honey, TBH, I don't blame you for not getting a Beta straight away, esp after what you went through last time. Honey, am sending you fresh stickies, I know this is a strong one, hey, it rode up a mountain with you on your bike!! Fit already!!!XXX
Alice, am sooo glad you had a suprisingly graet start to the weekend, honey you deserve it XX
AFM, Pregnyl still haunting me, feel pregnant and constipated!!YAY!!!!!
Ferrals, I hope your day was not full of sadness, but a celebration that Abbi is happy and healthy where she rests now XX
Darling, thinking of you, a candle is burning on my lounge windowsill for you and your family X
T-hopes - the tww is a killer! I try to keep really busy by cleaning everything in sight....i understand because it drives me insane. I agree with snuggly about Murphys law too, specially the champagne
Alice - Im glad you had a chance to catch up with your friend that just had a baby, and that this weekend has been better than the last. here is hoping there are many more like these coming
Ferrals - I hope this weekend is not too tough on you and you have time to reflect on Abbi and the memories she has given you.
Mummyof4 - Maybe it was too early? I hope you can test again and get a BFP, think happy thoughts!
Possummagic - So Sorry you had to join us here, but the ladies here are so understanding of everything!
Ric - Good luck with the job hunting, I hope you find a less labour intensive job soon!
Murraycod - Try and stay postive as hard as that may be! Even though your lining may not be thick enough, there is a chance one could stick!!! Sending heaps of to you Hun.
Chody47 - Sorry you had to join us here, sometimes waiting is hard but it gives you a chance to get your head around everything you and your body are going through....
Timeforafamily - I hope this next cycile you get many snow bubs, 0.56 is a unique name! when will you be able to do the next cycle?
Missk - It is hard having bad days, I hope you start to get more good days in between, how long til Af is meant to visit?
AFM - I feel like i have no control over anything at the moment, AF doesnt know if she is staying or going....wish she could make her mind up!!!!
DH has had yet another change in plans so i have to look at how that fits in with O and when he is going to be home....

ttcalc - I think you should test first thing tomorrow. Even though the Codster wants you to do it now.
I will send you some You're to rub it into your belly hourly, hear me? Then test in the morning. (Don't worry, Dr Bean bulk bills, this service will cost you nothing.)
Now, who said they'd miss SVN? I am getting boatloads of sticky-ish CM, it looks like snot and is almost green in colour. Bet you don't miss it now!
I can't unsubscribe to this thread. I tried, but couldn't do it. I will hang around til you chatterboxes hit 300 and this ones over (or till you all get bfps and this thread disappears, whichever comes first. Hopefully the latter!) Love you all too too too much!
Hello to the newbies sorry for the reason you have found your way here but welcome to our forum family.
TTCALC-Go on poas already.
Murrycod-Thanks for thinking of us and lighting a candle for Abbi.
AFM-well i got through yesterday ok we woke up in the morning lit Abbi's candle wished her a happy 1st birthday then we went out and kept real busy last minute shopping for my nieces 18th than spent all arvo getting into our costumes.
We got to the party and had a fantastic time my niece looked awesome and so did the other 40 kids when i get a chance i will post some photo's.
No one mentioned Abbi's Bday i was sure they didn't want to upset me.
Anyway after all the speeches and cake cutting my mum said come on we have a family cake for jade inside and want to give her the families gift's away from all the drunken younger ones so i am standing there when they bring out two small mud cakes one was chocolate with an 18 on it the other was a caramel mud cake with pink icing and a number 1 on it and Abbi's name i couldn't believe it my sister mum and niece hugged me and said we didn't forget her she is with us.
Well i burst into tears i was totally surprised and very moved that my niece would do that for me on her special day i thought in all the excitment they forgot.
What a wonerful family i have i love then dearly.
OH! and my DH brought me a pedigree devon rex blue point kitten he is gorgeous we went and picked himout yesterday and put a deposit on him i fell in love he is 4 weeks old and we can pick him up in 5 weeks when he is desexed and had his needles
they have the shortest coat ever it reminds me of a shaved sheep but realllllly soft the coat looks like a ripple effect to it and almost bald but when you pat the parents they are so soft and you wont get hair shedding all over the house which is good i don't like long haired animals i am tossing up between calling him mowgli or angus.
aww ferrals, that is such a beautiful thing for your family to do! Made me cry! was thinking of you and your family yesterday, im glad you and DH had a nice day and night and kept busy! Im sure Abby was with you to xx
Ferrals!!! That's just beautiful! I'm so glad you got to celebrate Abbi's birthday with our family. She is loved and missed xo And you got a kitten! Congratulations on your little boy furbaby, I think Angus is a really sweet name, I like giving cats people names Your family sounds wonderful, your blessed babe
TTCALC: Yup. GO POAS!
Snuggly: I'm glad your not going yet! SVN is just too fascinating You can stick to us for a bit while your baby's getting all snuggly and sticky in your belly
MissK: Glad that your finding some peace, it's a hard journey, but I think it will be worth it! xo
Timeforafamily: First of all, brilliant name I'm glad you decided to join us (hello lurkers!) but I'm sorry for the circumstances that brought you here. 0.56 is such a cute name, and yep, you are a mum. Good luck for trying again, keep us posted on how it goes. Ah, dildo cam, our time together was just beautiful (he never called me back, I suspect he gets around a bit).
Alice: Yay for happy starts to the weekend! Your DH is 1 of 11! 10 sisters! I bet he learnt a lot from them!
Chody: Good luck with your doc's appt!
Murraycod: LOL! I see pregnyl hasn't dampened your sense of sarcasm. It may take your bowel regularity, but it can never take your sarcasm! Ahhhhhh!! (Sorry, had a convo about Braveheart last night, and now I keep doing that, eg to DH:''You may take the last muffin, but you'll never take my orange juice! Ahhhhhh!!" Lets hope it's shortlived)
AFM: Apart from the slight insanity I'm doing good. No idea when/if I'm o'ing. I can feel the obsession creeping up on me, and I'm not even in the TWW!
Just popping in while I try and write up some notes for my group assignment!!
Hi to all the new ladies that have joined us but am very sorry for the reasoning behind it, but the girls here are so supportive. You couldn't ask for a better group!!
AFM: Been so busy with uni, and we went and saw Kevin Bl00dy Wilson on thursday nite and had a great nite out with DF and a wonderful bunch of friends. It's also DF's 30th next weekend so have been busy trying to orgainise the party for next sat nite. And it looks like the witch is on her way to visit, so will see how things go after she has vacated.
Ferrals - so beautiful of your mum and niece to do that for you and your DH and to let you know that Abbi will always be remembered and always be a part of your family. I remember seeing one of those cats at the Easter Show - look amazingly soft. I'm with Kit, I like Angus - very cute and a lovely present from your DH - how exciting to have him home with you soon. I'd love to have another fur person but DH is not at all interested. Fingers crossed for the tww xx
Snuggly - of course you are staying with us! And Dory and SPF, and Eloiselouise and all the other BFPers. It's always great to get news from the other side...even when it's almost green...or maybe not!
I'm off to bed lovelies - had a good busy weekend with friends and work around the house and ordered some fertile eggs online so my little broody hen can hatch some chicks and I can be a surrogate mum again. Should have them by the end of the week. If I don't get UTD soon I'll be up to my ears in chickens instead!
Take care everyone and have a great week
Alice x
PS Do you know I have NEVER POAS? Always too scared that they'll come up negative. Even when I was pg and my friend kept pestering me to do it I couldn't do it 'cause by then I thought I'd jinx myself. So TTCaLC, I can understand you wanting to wait til April but like everyone else, I'm keen to know!!
Firstly welcome to the new ladies - so sorry to hear your stories, it is such a heartbreaking time and I hope that we can support and help you through your journey. We have a fab bunch of gals in here that have helped me thru my hardest times, I hope you feel the same soon xx
TTAlovechild - PEE already woman!!!!! Squat and push! Your killin us!
KitFaerie - I hear ya with the obsession! Its swallowed me whole at the moment! Trying to peek out but just not happening!
snuggly - i took your advice - bought a huge box of tampons!!!!!! Dont mess with me Murphey!!! And yes I am on that herb root thing that you asked about.... we'll see if it works for me!!!
sorry not much time for persies - snuck on at work
AFM- well saw my chinese doc and temp BBT is still text book! She wants me wait till Monday to poas!!! Said the stress of a BFN would be too hard so begged me not too! HOW am i gunna do that????!!! My boobs are sooooo sore today.... not falling for it though! Bloody phantom!!!

I have a bad memory!
I give up!
for a new job for you with no lifting and less stress. I'm picturing you in a swively chair, giving lots of instruction to other people, and having someone bring you a nice hot cup of tea while you gaze out the window at the beautiful view. Don't know what you are doing, but that's all I can come up with tonight
And hope this month is the one for you too.
I just want a little bubs in my arms and was sick of caring for everyone else who have already got their children and grandchildren. A major moment. But back to work yesterday, and found I still have some credibility. I think. Gosh, hormones..
to you Hun.
You're to rub it into your belly hourly, hear me? Then test in the morning. (Don't worry, Dr Bean bulk bills, this service will cost you nothing.)
