Oh my goodness MurrayCod!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was just munchin on a biscuit whilst reading your post and choked on on it!!! I cant believe it! Im so thrilled for you and DH and the lucky little Bubs that will get to call you MUM!!!
Have you called your FS?? What did he say!?!?!?
YAY FOR MAY!! I knew you could do it Murraycod. I vaguely recall telling you I had a good feeling about this month for you. This is me telling you I TOLD YOU SO! lol... CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait to hear all about your appointments etc. Exciting!
Possum- To clarify, all 3 days the lines were all as dark as the control line. It's just that the middle one was darker than the first. and the third. Ah well, it's done now. I guess I'll know in a couple of weeks if I timed it right. Or held my mouth the right way, or whatever the heck you've gotta do to get pg easily around here. lol
AFM, This morning I got a -OPK. I think? It looked a lot lighter than the others, so I'd made up my mind was negative, but after roughly 6 minutes (I know, against the rule, after the time limit) it was as dark as the others. I'm still counting it as a negative though, because (TMI WARNING HERE..) my CM is so so dry it's crazy. It's a desert down there, girls. I swear there might have been sand in there, it was so dry. Haha. In other news, I was really irritable today, and cried at work over something relatively small. I think I was just overly frustrated. (nothing new there, those people push my buttons and I cry when I'm stressed out) I also have tingly/achey boobs. They NEVER tingle. For now I've decided I'm overly hormonal, mostly because of the crying.
Hi to everyone else I've missed, and apologies. I'm still a bit all over the place after my workplace meltdown. Hope you all had a better day than I did!

*Sharp intake of breath* Murray Cod: That is soooooo exciting! I'm an IVF ignoramus so i don't know what you do but it sounds like you could do a little POAS dance perhaps?!! Keep us posted on little Cod xx
First things first! MURRAYCOD!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! OH MY GOD THAT IS SO SO SO GOOD!!!! When are u going for an appointment??? Just kick back and relax for now. So happy for u!!! xx
Kit- Oh wat a rollercoaster ride.. u poor girl. but it sounds like its going to be ok, i really hope the next 5 weeks go kinda fast, but try and enjoy being pg. I know it will be hard.. every little twinge will send u into a panic. So good that u deferred ur exams, just relax for the next few months. Oh and excellent that ur morning sickness is getting worse! i am really looking forward to oneday getting it
Crafty- Sorry af turned up. But love ur positive attitude in saying ur not giving up that easy! Good on ya!! and good on u for giving up sweets etc.. i wish i cld! Love chocolate too much! Woohoo for getting ur body in tune for june!! And good luck with the maca!
Forshelby- Oh i hope u caught that eggy! it sounds like u gave it ur best shot! it also sounds as tho the opks almost did ur head in too! it can all get a bit confusing! Sorry to hear u had a bad day at work today.. i believe coming off the pill made me a real person with real emotions.. when i was on it im sure i never cried as much as i do these days.. i always have a good reason tho!! haha yeah right! Hope the next week and a half go very fast!!!
Ionamacca- Sorry to hear about ur fight with dh, welcome to my world at the moment! Pity u were holidaying at the time tho.. i hope ur still enjoying urself. enjoy the footy tonight!
Ric- I hope the next 3 weeks go super quick for u! Enjoy each day tho.. in 7.5 months u will be wondering where the time went!! Oh and good on u for resigning from ur job, enjoy the break
Matthews mum- Great to hear af arrived finally! Are u over the flu yet?? i hope so. Keep us posted how u go this month. I hope its successful for u too x
Alice- Hello, thanku for asking how i am going.. just been laying low for a bit. I hope ur doing alright. Have u had any secret chocolate binges yet?? If u havent then u have super willpower!
Hello Dory, Porsche, ttcalc and everyone else reading!
Afm. Like i said before, just been laying low, havent had the best few days. Me and dh have been arguing for the last 3 days.. well not really arguing more like the silent treatment.. its better then arguing but u dont bloody get anywhere! Im not going to go into our issues but basically i dont think dh is ready to have a baby yet.. he says he is and thinks he is.. but actions speak louder then words. So i have told him today that we are putting it on hold til he gets his s**t together. I am going to find it sad and hard at ovulation time but ill get thru it.. hopefully he pulls his head in soon! I think hes going to be working away at 'o' time anyway for the next couple months so if he doesnt make any effort it defintely wont be happening! I just feel like i have put so much emotional energy into ttc and he hasnt made much effort at all.. i dont think he really realises what i have been thru and am still going thru. Its all good tho, we'll work it out, its better off that we sort it out now rather then bring a baby into it.
Another thing which has been upsetting me is my old little 13 yr old dog has pneumonia I was so upset when i found out yesterday morning. I had been up with her for 2 nites patting her back and giving her honey in water etc. I thought my pup had possibly given her kennel cough after the nite she went missing and ended up in 'lockup' with all the other dogs. I had googled all these home remedies and wanted to try them before i filled her up with drugs, nothing worked tho, im so glad i didnt wait any longer to take her to the vet..my poor little darling. Shes getting better now tho, thank goodness. I just know that pneumonia is usually the final straw for old people and they die soon after getting it, so i was imagining the worst yesterday. Ive had her since i was 11 so its going to be absolutely heartbreaking when i lose her I cant believe what these dogs have put me thru in the last 3 weeks! I hope the next few months are happier!
I havent tested for 3 days, at the moment i cldnt handle seeing a bfn, i decided im just going to wait and see if af arrives, i think she will.. ive been feeling little cramps and am very bloated and my skin has broken out.. and with the way the last few days have been going i dont think ill be heartbroken, it just means the universe is trying to tell us we are not ready!!! Its already given me enough signs by making my body go crazy on me over the last few months!! Will let u all know in a couple days whats going on. I will still be extrememly happy if i do get a bfp tho.. and im almost positive dh will then pull his head in quicksmart!!
Sorry for the all about sad me post... i think with the way im feeling af is defintely on her way.
On a happier note..
CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN MURRAYCOD!!!!!!!!!
xx
MURRAYCOD!!! YOU'RE PREGNANT BABE!! So so ridiculously happy for you Well done my love!
This is gonna be yet another short message, despite taking a maxalon I'm still not feeling super-hot (yay!). Sooo...had some cramping yesterday, freaked out, called DH, went to emergency, no bleeding, had beta's checked and they were 84,000!!! I think this little bubba might just be hanging in there! So got an appt today to have a scan, scans at 9:20. Doc also said that the ultrasound place I went to is a bit dodgy, so I'm staying with the hospy clinic. The super duper embarrassing part is that the doc thinks that maybe the cramping was caused by constipation! Shame! LOL! Still quite scared that there won't be a baby in there, but I definitely have hope.
Reet: Could just be last minute ''omg I need to be a child cos I'm gonna have to be a father'' stuff? We had hols just after we decided to start trying and I was researching on the net and DH was playing Wii and drinking for like a week. And then wanted to spend a bunch of money on fairly inconsequential stuff and drop out of uni (awesome father prospects there). I just rode with it, and it passed. And now he's taking such good care of me, and tells Tiger he loves them each night.
Alice: Your doing so well, love you babe xo
Crafty: Giving up caffeine sounds like a good idea, keep going! There's hope! I totally credit maca with my BFP, did you get powder or tablets? I couldent face the powder, got the tabs, lol.
Foshelby: Eep! TWW!! Good luck sweetheart, let us know all your symptoms, even the crazy ones xo
MatthewsMum: Yay for day 1!! Back on the road my dear, this is the one
Ok, gotta go get ready and steel myself for the scan. Oof, getting quite scared again now. I will relax eventually.
Oh wait! 1 funny thing - while I was in emergency there was a chick in labour and she was crying and yelling (baby was breech apparently! ouch!) and she said was calling out and saying it hurt and moaning, and then she started yelling - I've changed my mind, I dont want a natural birth anymore! GET ME DRUGS!!!
I thought it was kinda cute, just cos it's something I can imagine doing! She was also yelling - Noone told me it would hurt this much! The scary thing is that cos she was still able to talk, does that mean that she wasn't in full labour yet? Cos if it hurts that much at the beginning....ARGHH! LOL!
Kit, wishing you all the very best for today hun, I am sure it is going to be reassuring news, hang in there!!!!
LOL about the constipation thing, Iv'e been constipated since EPU on the 13th May, pooping out rabbit pebbles still!
Reet, my Labrador had to have xrays done about 4 months ago, and came back with a nasty choing like cough, at first I thaught his throaght may have been irritated from being under the anasthetic, but it turned out he got kennel cough from the darn vet.
I had to get him put on antibiotics, it was too horrible to listen to him coughing like he was, and after a few days of being on antibiotics he was as good as gold, then my minature foxie started coughing..........................so I had to get her put on antibiotics also, was very p****d off, cost me so much money for something they did.
I hope your pup gets better soon X
My DH goes through stages like this too, don't take it too heart too much, I was like, how are we meant to bring a baby into the world if you refuse to grow up?!?! men deal with things in their own male sort of way, might not be the most appropriate, but let him go, he will pull his head in soon enough, I promise X
Forshelby, I think workplace breakdowns and hissyfitts are quite a common occurance in this thread!! I have them daily!! Thanks for the 'I told You So', ;> Anyhoo, I think it's better to have my fits at work, rather than at home!!!!!
Possum, huggs darling, thanks for reminding me to breathe!!!
Matthew'sMum, day 1 cycle for you woohoo finally!!! Am so excited for you!! Will you be doing a natural FET, or will there be meds involved?? Will be keeping a close eye, wishing you all the best in the world X
Iona, I do hope you are enjoying your holiday, and the make up sex is in full swing by the weekend!!! Go catch that egg!!!!XXXX
Dampre, that is one hell of a long cycle you got on your hands there, are you normaly regular? I hope you don't have to wait too much longer for the visit, so you can get things moving along X
Jahzara, the biggest tightest huggs to you honey, hope you are well XXXX
Oh Thopes, that buiscuit comment, I'm still LMAO at that you know!!! Always putting a smile on my face!! Am reading Eclipse ATM, is keeping my head buisy, not helping the pregnant porn though, i'm so darn randy but too scared to ahh.....get one off so to speak LOL !
Becnxavi, thanks darling XXXX Hope you are well XXX
Well, did another test thismorning and that second line is so much stronger, I am starting to get a good feeling now that it's starting to sin in a little!!
Beta on Monday, am pretty excited to see what my numbers are, and a bit aprehensive to!
Am needing some advice, I have a chocolate cake date with my GF, the one I mentioned a while back, that is going through donor IVF, her 5th go. She wen't through menopause when she was 19/20, and is going through such a difficult time not being able to fall PG. Her and I have become so close, we talk about everything, when her FET failed last month I was devistated, I always wanted her to be PG before me, I know I am much stronger than she is dealing with this, I guess she has been through so much heart ache too.
Well, ofcourse she has been there for me every single day, making sure i'm well, fussing oer me and so on, and I need to tell her today I caved. I don't know what to say to her.
I know she is going to be totaly excited when I tell her, but when I leave and it sinks in for her, I'm worried about how she is going to hold up.
I love her too much to see her hurt, but I can't keep this from her, not when we have shared so much.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated XX
MurrayCod - Just wanted to congratulate you and wish you all the best. This is such wonderful news. Not sure what advice to offer over your friend. Maybe you could start with telling her about all the cramps you had and say you have a good feeling about this and see how she reacts to that. Ultimately, your being concerned about her feelings will be appreciated even if she does find the news a little hard to take.
Murraycod - gorgeous woman!! Im so happy to hear the line was darker this morn! Fab news! I guess you need to tell your friend, she will appreciate your honesty and be touched by how concerned you are for her! And im sure, you will be a great motivation for her - that dreams really do come true, miracles happen!
AFM - tested bfn of course this morning, having AF cramps so im out again, no surprise of course!. Least I have mondays surgery to look forward too! NOT! Oh lordy, next week is gunna be tuff - emotionally! 12 mths in June since we concieved our angel bubs, cant believe that this time is approaching and im no where near getting pregnant again, so devasting sorry for the little sook!
Ok - so a mixed bag of news. Tiger is fine, Tiger is perfect (HB- 120!), but it turns out this was a twin pregnancy, and the bleed was losing the other twin. Not sure how I feel about it yet, mainly just grateful to still have Tiger.
T-hopes: The important thing is that your next baby is for keeps, your bringing your next baby home my dear. They're just waiting for the perfect time. It does suck that it's taken longer than you hoped for though
Crafty: Your tough too You can do this!
Murraycod: I'm still so excited for you! With your friend, I'd tell her sooner rather than later, and ask her what she wants to do, if she needs a couple of weeks away, then that's ok. She might want lots of news or she might want none, it sounds like you guys have an awesome friendship, I'd trust in that. I doubt she knows how she's gonna react til it happens, so she might change her mind a bit. Good luck babe (eee! your pregnant!!!) xoxo
Kit- For some reason I had it in my head that there were two. Sorry for your loss and congrats on your sticky Tiger.
T-Hopes and Crafty- You have every right to be upset, that time of year will always be difficult even more so the first time round. If you don't let it out it will eat you up on the inside
Murraycod- It is awlays difficult in these situations but don't beat yourself up over it, i is hard but do not feel bad because baby has found it's way in and hers is not yet ready. Her time will come. Congrats on the darkening
AFM- My cyclyes have been on time every time until I lost a lil one at 7w1d last month. I am thinking that AF may finally be on the way as this morning I had a tiny faint spot of pink on the loo paper and am feeling ver bloated so that I will be able to start ttc next month.
afternoon everyone, reet-glad your dog's on the mend,hope things get sorted with dh soon...murraycod-great that the line is darker,i'll be doing a natural fet...t-hopes-sorry about bfn..kitfaerie-sorry for the loss of tiger's twin,good to hear tiger is doing well...afm-Matthew should be turning 1 today ,we've put flowers & a cute little balloon on his grave,kids have done some pictures for him,we've got a cake to have around his grave this afternoon,trying to honour his memory through all the wishes & tears...
