Hey girls thanks for all the stickyvibes and love me and bub are doing very well so far I'm so hard that my lil bub sticks this time !!! talk to you all later :hugs:
Just a quick one for Jen yeah it was a shock to me because I didn't think I would fall pg this soon when I went and took the blood test I didn't even think I was pg but I'm happy and I think this may be the one I feel a lot different this time around and I'm trying to stay positive ...
toccara - just a quick one...Can I ask what your HCG level was? I know that no two women have the same but just at this early stage I find reassurance when I finally go and get my BT next week that Im on the right track.
sorry girls no time for persies at the moment....am 14DPO and still high temps and its looking good, doing another pg test on Saturday...its so hard to hold out. Have doc appt next Thurs 4th to get Bloods done...
love you girlies and thanks for the stickyvibes I really need them this time...hopefully its 3rd time lucky! xxx
Mannie - That all sounds good! for you and all the best for your drs visit next week.
Toccara - for you and your little one!
Possums - I replied to you in the LTTTC TWW thread, but so sorry again about AF Stupid witch, you'd think she'd know that she's not wanted!
Jen and smi - Have a lovely Thanksgiving ladies!
AJC - Goodness me! Make sure you take it easy OK?
fifi - Yay for kicks! And GL for your 20 wk scan as well.
TY - Sorry can't help much with the tummy pain, I had a D&C and never had much pain after it. I would call your dr if you are worried at all.
Mel1979 - Sorry to hear you are not feeling that positive Unfortunately I know only too well how it feels! After this long I don't get my hopes up too much anymore either, it makes it a little easier (not much!!) to cope with the disappointment. Am hoping that you are wrong though and that this is the one!
babymiracles, jenushka, HannahD and everyone else - Thanks so much for the well wishes
And a big hi to anyone that I have missed - mollycat, buliej, Indy, princess85 - hoping I haven't missed anyone!
AFM - Am expecting AF today and as yet she still hasn't shown. Not getting my hopes up yet though, she could still show today or tomorrow morning. Anyway am off to the clinic for my BT and a visit to the FS at lunchtime tomorrow, so hopefully should have an answer either way late tomorrow afternoon. Will let you all know a soon as I can what happens!
Apologies in advance for this negative post. I am sitting here in tears but I really need to talk.
I just rang my FS for my results to see if I was ovulating and apparently I didn't ovulate this month. Well, that's put all the temperature crap out the window since I had a temp rise on CD13. I am so upset and disappointed. I really hoped it would be this month. I don't understand how you can ovulate one month and not another. I had to try so hard not to cry over the phone to the nurse. It's just not fair.
Does anyone know what this means? Is it just a matter of going on Clomid?
I have to wait 2 weeks to go back to the FS to get any answers. I also have adrenal deficiency which is linked to auto immune diseases which I think isn't helping.
I just feel like I am letting DH down (I know he would never think that, he is so loving and supportive). He would make such a great father and it breaks my heart I haven't been able to give him a child.
Oh well, at least I can expect my period now and won't get my hopes up as I know there is no chance.
I will come back later tonight when I am feeling better (and more positive) to write persies.
Mel - I've had this happen a couple of times to me too - it absolutely sucks knowing that you have no chance, I'm so sorry hun.
I would think that most likely they will suggest Clomid, it is the usual "first step" before other forms of AC eg. FSH injections, IVF. I have done Clomid a number of times, first time fell pg but miscarried, and used it again post m/c a number of times with very mixed success, which I put down to my "old age" I didn't always ovulate on Clomid and it badly affected my endo lining too, that's why I'm doing IVF now. Don't mean to scare you at all, I think seeing as you are only a young thing compared to me you've got a really good chance of Clomid working for you There are heaps of ladies on the boards here that have had success on Clomid! And with the extra monitoring (BTs and ultrasounds) you get when you are taking it, you will have a much increased chance of conceiving.
Don't go thinking you are letting DH down I'm sure he doesn't think that at all. Just keep perservering and you will get there! This may be the reason that you are having trouble conceiving - it is better to know about it and have it treated than keep going along in the dark month after month hey? And how much sweeter will it be when you finally have your bub?!
Mel1979 - I'm so sorry you are having such a rough day. I don't know much about ovulation so can't help you there. But as for DH - I have EXACTLY the same feelings - despite the fact that my DH has been fantastic, doesn't blame me at all - but I struggle with the fact that I can't give him a baby...at least yet. I think he'd be a fantastic dad and it just breaks my heart that it's not happening and I feel like its my fault. I don't know what to do to fix how I feel, but thought it might help if I share that I feel the same way.
Toccara and Mannie: CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
These babies WILL STICK!!!
My very best wishes going your way!!!
All my girls here... Thank you so much for thinking of me.. I feel much better about my kidney stone..it looks like it was just one and I passed it that day.
Things have not looked up here yet...but we are hanging in there AF has not arrived since my D&C on 9/12 and I don;t think she will come until I see a specialist... the only time I know we can see a specialist is maybe on tax return season in April.. yeah April my due date.
There is only one thing I feel super bad about and that is.. that my son will turn 4 on Dec 16th and if any of us don't get a job by then it will be sad to not get him anything.
Hubby has a few interviews for the first week of Dec but when you start a new job they don't pay you right away.. I just hope we can get my son at least a cake or something.
If hubby gets a day job I will try to get a night job..( so he can stay with Erick Daycare is out of the question) I know we won't have a minute together but for now I think we will have to sacrifice that.
sooooo tomorrow is thanksgiving and I'm cooking a few things.. hubby got his last check from his job and we have to be wise as to how to spend it.. we just don't know when we will get $$ again and it's scary.
But we will try to make the most out of it tomorrow...
Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Thanks for all the good luck, I'm really hoping that it'll work!!
But I still don't have my BT results yet The blood was done fairly late in the day, so will be waiting for results until the morning now, bummer. But the good news is no AF!
for a good result tomorrow, will let you know how we get on
Maddysmum - Welcome and I'm so sorry for your loss HannahD has pretty much covered it all, like she said most drs recommend waiting one cycle, but there are plenty out there as well that say there is no need to wait.
Good morning girls! Thanks for all the Thanksgiving well-wishes!
babymiracles--Yay for sneaking in another FET before the year's end! Hope you're having fun with the wedding plans!
Mannie & jenushka--Sending all my most positive Zen vibes your way! And lots of bellyrubs, too!
Possums--Oh, I so know how you feel! Although I have more of a problem staring at pg women than at babies! I'm sure I've freaked quite a few of them out with my long, lusty stares! For some reason I can handle the babies--it's the big, round bellies that bum me out!
Maddysmum--My sincere condolences over the loss of your little angel baby! You're right, it's definitely an awkward and lonely time--I hope that you're able to find comfort and support here with us so that we can help make the days seem just a little less dark. While none of us would ever wish this pain upon anyone else, it helps so much in knowing there are others out there that can relate to you and what you're going thru! I didn't have a D&C, and bled for about a week after my m/c. Hannah pretty much covered everything as far as how long you should wait--but you're right that women are very fertile after a m/c, so I know that for me that was a HUGELY positive thing that kept me motivated and gave me a reason to keep going. Once I read that there was no real reason why you couldn't begin TTC right away, I was READY! Of course, I'm still working on it.... but there's many who fell pg right after their m/c, so there's always hope! You're in my thoughts and prayers, hon.... Welcome to our humble little thread, may you find as much love, comfort, and support as I have! *hugs*
Hannah--Mmmm, turkey was SO worth the wait! Keeping my fingers crossed for you and sending lots of your way!
Hi everyone. Just when you thought I had forgotten you all here I am
This whole IVF-with-PGD attempt this month has been pretty full-on. BT on Monday but somehow I know it is just not "our month". Because we managed a normal embryo, DH wants to try naturally next month before we are allowed to do our next cycle. So I will no doubt be back on this thread in full swing for the silly season sharing in yet another marathon BD effort.
Jen and Ruthie - happy thanksgiving
Jenushka - I am so happy the way things have turned out for you (and you give me a little hope)
MegsMum - you know I have everything possible crossed for you
OMG girls, I just got my BT results......and its a BFP!!!
My HCG is 184 and prog 105, which according to the clinic is all good. You don't know how many times over the last year that I have thought this day would never come!
I just have to get through the first tri now without having a nervous breakdown.......
I am just so thrilled for you hun - wishing you a happy and healthy pg... and those bt results are great
I have experience in fluctuating between zen/positivity and being a complete nervous wreck - I find closing my eyes and hanging on really tight seems to help
so hard that my lil bub sticks this time !!! talk to you all later :hugs:
