damprye-hope a break from dp is just what the dr ordered...ionamacca-hope you can find a distraction over the weekend,at least for a little while ,good book,good movie?...minniemouse-glad dd is on the mend....thanks ladies for all your lovely words of support,i'm booked in for 11.15.
Forshelby ~ thanks hun, im enjoying my TTC holiday LOL. Will miss you 2. But I am poping my head in from time to time.
Iona ~ FX those levels increase and the bleeding stops hun. Will be thinking of you.
GL ladies, hi newbies and wishing you all the best.
Hoping to see lots of BPF's very soon, when I pop in.
Loops, enjoy your holiday from all this!!!! Nice to see you drop bt now and then, love to you honey X
I was just popping my head in to wish Matthew'sMum all the very best for today, good luck, and I pray that your TWW goes quickly and smoothly for you XXX
I have not been the best, my cramping is getting stronger each day, and lower backpain for 2 days has immobilised me. I'm not confident I will see a HB on Tuesdays scan, I am terrified this Li'l bean has not continued to grow.
I feel bad for dropping in and having a downer post, I am not myself lately at all X
Murrycod and Iona- Ihope things start looking up for both of you.
Matthew's Mum- FX for your big day today.
Loops- Hoping October comes swiftly for you
AFM- Well my doc assured me that my results would be in today but when I rang they said to call back Monday grr Good news is that I am only spotting brown again now, that makes *,M,M,* was expecting that it would have last a bit longer but I can't say I'm not happy that it wasnt. I am so looking forwards to Monday now, come on time pass already
Minnie - Poor DD. I hope her scar is minimal, and I'm so sorry your family are still being so ignorant. Just remember, without communication, there's no chance for a resolution. Maybe it's worth one more shot? Send your mum a card, or give her a call... just let her know how much it hurts that you don't have her support. Try to keep it as neutral as possible?? And congrats on deciding to TTC asap. I hope the specialist gives you the all clear!
Reet- LOL.. sausage sizzle. I love that term. I'm definitely going to ask DP if we can have a sausage sizzle tonight. Bahaha... And I've heard of horny goat weed, just had no idea what the heck it was or what it did. I might ask him if he'd be willing to be subjected to some experimentation. I've been taking folate, so it's only fair he should take something too, hehe. I warned him last night though that I'll be attacking him tonight... so I'd better make sure I look as provocative as possible. I made sure to put on my push-up bra today. It worked at the tyre shop, anyway... they didn't charge me to take off every wheel and check them out. Nice......... I've still got it. And bugger the couch. We have a spare bed but it's way too cold in there without DP's bodyheat. I think TP is a good compromise. Lucky for me though he didn't snore last night, but the cat did her usual 'pin down the blanket with my fat a$$' move, and it made for a bit of blanket wrestling during the night. It must be nice having the bed to yourself regularly, sometimes I miss those days. Other times I just elbow him in the back. LOL I hope you're doing well, and the preparations for your own sausage sizzle are underway! Remember. Push up bra.
Iona - I'm scared. But don't give up hope. It ain't over till it's over, ok? I'm not religious so I don't pray, but I'm going to give the universe a serious talking to on your behalf. They are NOT having your baby. FX it's just a random bleed, and everything is okay. Please try not to stress. Keep your feet elevated and try to go to your happy place. I'm here for you no matter what happens. Stay strong, sweetie.
Loops - Glad to see you're still lurking around. Don't wander too far away from us! As mum used to say, stay where I can see you. hehe
Murraycod - I hope the cramping is just stretching. Oh dear me. Please don't feel bad for feeling upset and worried, you're free to be yourself here. FX for a lovely strong flickering hb at your scan. You'll be in my thoughts right there next to Iona.
Damprye - Glad the bleeding has eased. I hope this break is just what you need. Good luck with your results on Monday. Try to distract yourself as best you can. A personal favourite of mine is youtube. Or knitting!
AFM, I woke up this morning as RANDY AS HELL, and of course DP was at work. *sigh* I'm also getting the beginnings of some EWCM, so of course, on the push-up bra goes.... and the new clothes I got last week at the sales. "what, this old thing? *bimbo giggle*" LOL. So far he hasn't noticed, but he did notice I washed the car like he wanted. The guy across the street noticed my push-up bra.... why doesn't DP? I think I need to get a bit crafty with my attempts today. Oh, and negative OPK this morning. I sort of expected that. But it's VERY negative, not like last month where on cd13 it was almost a positive. I guess no two months are exactly the same. It could be down to not using FMU like I had been, so it wasn't very concentrated. Anyhoo, I'd better get off the computer and get ready to go and visit our little niece for her birthday. I can't wait to see her little face when she opens her presents. I hope we have a little girl just like her. She's an absolute angel, and I love her to bits. Even though DP and I aren't married, she still calls me Aunty Nelly. Melts my heart every time.
I hope everyone is well, and anyone else approaching O is sizzling those sausages. Push up bras, ladies!!!!
aftrernoon all-ionamacca-so sorry the bleeding has worsen,has it settled down at all through the day?..murraycod-thanks for dropping by,sorry your going through a rough patch,hope tuesday brings you the happiness you so deserve....forshelby-i think with opk,mid-afternoon wee is recomended & around the same time each day...afm-transfered 2nd embie what was thawed,1st one didn't survive the thawing process , i was able to bring it home to bury it.dr who did the procedure was really nice, hadn't seen him before,so i'm officially in the tww

Mathew's mum: Sorry that one little embie is a garden baby but glad to hear one made it to transfer. Look forward to hearing your good news at the end of the TWW
Reet: Woo hoo! So glad for you AF arrived! Now for a little rest before the BD bonanza...unless you go the shower route!!
Forshelby: Wow, you deserve points for effort! Lucky DP! I hope you have a good couple of days!
Kelbel: Yeah, it's great when you know you're half way through AF and it's nearly O time isn't it?
Damprye: I hope your break does you lots of good and that you get some good news on Monday
Iona: sorry that things aren't looking promising and hoping you get an unexpected good news surprise on Monday.
Minniemouse: glad your DD is getting better... and i hate looking at my DD's 'sore' too. i've got my DH doing bandaid duty cos it makes me feel queasy when i do it!
AFM: Just over 6wks pg. Seeing my OB on Wednesday and hoping there's a HB. Felt quite tired today and a bit queasy and crampy (in a good way!) I'm keeping everything crossed. (Hope i don't offend anyone by giving an update in this thread but a couple of you were asking where i'm up to ... thanks for thinking of me).
Matthew's Mum do you take a preg test or wait for a blood test in two weeks?
Possum magic how exciting and nerve racking as well to see the heartbeat on wed. its truly a beautiful sound!
Bought tears to my eyes when i heard my DD's for the first time i was a nervous wreck before it though
fingers crossed for you
yep going to try the temps and have a few opks left from last month.
What day do you girl have start your opks from? i have had a 34 day (chemical preg) and 31 day cycle
i have put the thermometer next to my bed to remember have got two mornings so far
Hope everyone has a lovely sunday
me i have a shift this afternoon hopes its not too busy
yuk i just realised reading back the post before how much i hate the word chemical pregnancy sounds so like i didn't care about it.
I don't have another word for it when it was before it was before four weeks. still sounds awful to me
just put our little lost bubba in my sig makes me feel better

Hi girls, just a quickie before I head off to the animal sanctuary with DP's family. Apologies for the me-ness coming up, will do persies later tongiht.
matthews mum - I opt not to use afternoon urine for opks because the logistics of trying to do that while at work are just impossible. They've worked for me just fine with fmu so far.... so I just kind of have to stick with that if I want to use them at all.
Can't remember much else of what I've read.. argh, sorry. Kind of rushing. Just wanted to update you all on the sausage sizzle.. or lack thereof. It seems DP is always 'too tired' around O time. Both months now he's been more interested in drinking as many beers/bourbons as he can on the weekend (which is when my fertile days have tended to fall).... and it's just so frustrating. So he's too tired to DTD, but can stay up late drinking. AGHHH. Oh and no ewcm today, so I'm pretty sad. This morning he was acting all frisky like, and I just said 'bit late.' His family is on their way over, and practically on our doorstep..... it's like he does this on purpose just to wind me up.
Anyway, sorry for the self indulgent whine... I just needed to vent a bit. I don't even know what to say to him that won't p!ss him off. My OPK was still negative this morning, but getting darker. I guess all i can do is hope that we DTD tonight and tomorrow (if i'm lucky) and hope that's enough. I honestly don't know how I'm ever going to get pg when I have to BEG for it. It's ridiculous, and embarrassing. It hurts asking for sex all the time and being rejected. The worst part is that we haven't even bd'd since Monday, so it's not like he's worn out. He's just..... avoiding it. Now I wonder if he even wants a baby, when he purposely avoids me when I'm fertile.
!@#$%^&*() Yay, can't wait to go and smile and have 'fun' today while I know this month is pretty much down the toilet. I keep telling him there are certain days I need him to.. y'know. And he said that was fine, at the start. It's like that's all out the window now, and he just can't be bothered making time to DTD. How is he going to be 'bothered' changing nappies and getting up in the middle of the night if he can't even be bothered MAKING the baby in the first place!!! And that's supposed to be the fun part!
Ughh... sorry. I'm going to log off now before I depress anyone with my sooking. It's just so.... hard. I like Reet's idea (or was it Iona) of asexual reproduction.
Oh forshelby- that sux. U dont really want to start arguing with him about it either cos then u defintely wont get a bd in tonight. I dont reckon its too late tho.. once u get the + on the opk it still takes like 24-36 hrs til u actually O. And it takes the sperm i think max. 12 hrs to get to the egg and then its happy to just sit and wait.. so i reckon ur defintely still in with a chance.. as long as u get one in tonight or tomoro morning and the morning after that. I think u need to sit him down and have a chat too.. and just ask if its all getting a bit too full on for him and freaking him out (i cant really see how.. but males are truly bizarre creatures) and say if it is then u will just try and relax a bit more about the whole ttc thing.. u dont have to tho, just pretend to him u are.. go crazy on here with us!!! haha. Maybe ask him again if he is truly ready for a baby.. if he says no not really then just say fine we will stop trying.. and leave it. Obviously u wont, but if he thinks ur serious it shld make him snap his head into line again. Sometimes they just want to do completely the opposite to what u want them to do. Reverse psychology!!!!!!! But yeah i cant believe the lengths u are going too to seduce him.. u go girl!! i know i wldnt have it in me to do it.. im such a prude.. dh begs me to 'dress up' for him all the time.. i just cant!! unless im pretty drunk haha but thats not very often anymore. I hope today isnt too bad.. i hate those days where u have to fake that smile and act like u and dh are so happy.. i think if i were u i wld be dropping little comments in somehow. like if they were to ask u about how the the baby making is going, say something like 'bit hard when dp has no sex drive whatsoever!' ... make him feel silly.. haha well thats just wat i wld do, it cld probly result in an argument tho!
Oh and yes to reproducing all by ourselves.. wldnt that be great!!!
Iona- how are u today??? i really hope the bleeding has settled down and u have no cramps. We are all here for u.. waiting is absolutely the worse isnt it. Good luck babe x
Damprye- Omg.. thats freaky about the murder near ur house, that wlkd absolutely creep me out. Is ur neighbourhood normally quiet?? Hope ur hands ok too.. how did u manage that??
Matthews mum- So the 2ww begins! So so happy for u. Will u be putting a plant or something on top of where u bury ur little embie? I am really sorry if this question is way out of line.. but what does it look like?? i have no idea, But yeah like i said.. u dont have to answer that. Pls keep us posted with all ur symtoms over the next 2 weeks!
Kellbell- This is probably a silly question but what is a chemical pregnancy?? i thought it referred to like falling pg with help from fertility drugs or something..?? i think im wrong tho! Im always learning so much stuff from u guys in here! And we are almost cycle buddies! we can go crazy together in the 2ww!
Possum- Oh SO happy for u!!! Pls make sure u tell us how u go with ur scan. So so exciting!
Loops- Thanks for pooping in. Pls continue to keep popping in!
Murraycod- Thinking of u and will be on tues too. Good luck xxx
AFM- Af is almost gone.. yay! We got a bd in last nite.. not for any reason except that dh wld not let me go to sleep without doing it. Im like u better be quick or it will be messy!! I hadnt had any bleeding all arvo so i knew it wldnt be.. but it made him go quick which meant i cld relax and go to sleep! haha.. forshelby- imagine if i was with ur man! god we wld NEVER want to bd!!! Funny how opposites attract. Oh and i popped my first clomid pill this morning.. woohoo!! Now lets hope i dont have any random bleeding at O time again!
i always took chemical preg to mean you get the hormones of pregnancy but it fizzles out and you get AF a couple of days late. so for whatever reason it dosent go very far. I got a BFP for two days day 11 and day 12 then got neg preg tests. So if i hadn't tested before AF was due i wouldn't have known. but it still meant something to me even if it was very short.
Reet - Yah for cycle buddies only two days behind you - yeah we can go crazy together then hopefully gets BFP's!!!!
forshelby i dont think its too late hope you and DP get it going tonight and the days to come. its hard when they are not in the mood im sure you can do it and catch that egg. When the time comes im sure hell be a great dad. i had the exact same doubts but my DP did get up in the night and he did change nappies and im sure yours will too!!!
Better get my skates on and get off BB and go to work!!!!!
From what my doc told me, a chemical pregnancy is when the egg gets fertilised but for whatever reason it is not a viable pregnancy and you gennerally lose it without even realising you were pregnant in the first place. This happens to about half of all pregnancies. The most common belief in the medical community about it is that the DNA strands don't fit together right and so AF comes to take away the "mess" or at least that is what my doc told me on my last visit. AF in these cases are usually earlier or later than we expect them to be but some are still right on time. It is often possible to get a + hpt before the baby is gone and AF arrives.
