Sunny09-congratz on a healthy girl.

AFM-Well my AF has yet to show and i have not a niggle or sign of it comming i bet it will turn up late tomorrow when i cant have a BT over the weekend unless i drive to Sydney IVF between 7 and 8:30 in the morning i am always on time but of course when i need it to come on time noooooooooooooooooo it has to decide to come late freakin body sh#ts me.

[Twin Sister]

ladies ladies where are those BFPs! I was fully expecting to come on and find 3 BFP announcements.

Bookworm - sorry to hear AF arrived

Mathews Mum - fingers crossed it's just too early and your BFP is still coming.

Coco- When are you testing again? I'm just a day behind you, I want to hear good news from you this week-end.

craftymummy - yay to ovulation!! have fun with hubby!

eliselouise - oooh that sucks. When DH and I started TTC back in January he was always out of town around ovulation as well. It was soooo frustrating. Maybe you will be lucky and ovulate late.

Snuggly -lol at the crossed legs comment, you always make me laugh. I hope your blood test goes well and that as a result your x-ray has to wait.

sunny - glad to hear your pregnancy is going well, that's fantastic

ferrals - ugh how frustrating! hopefully it will show up even though you have no symptoms. Any chance it's not showing up for a good reason???

AFM - having a strange kind of a day. No spotting but then I went back and recalculated and I'm only 8DPO so one more day until I'm on spot watch. I'm not feeling so great today. have a headache and a bit of a sore throat. I'm super tired and crampy. I'm hoping it's not because I'm coming down with something.

Had some sad news today too. One of my friends (the one who was a bit tactless in telling me about her PG ) just had a M/C. I really feel bad for her. We had a nice chat today. She's eager to start TTC right away as well. Even though I felt really bad for her it was kind of nice to have someone to talk to in person.

Ds is sleeping so I was going to get some housekeeping done but I think instead I'm going to go have a nap.

Sunny goot to hear everything is going so well and your expecting a pink bundle.

Twin Sister I thought there would be a BFP announcement. Maybe we are all going out in sympathy with each other IYKWIM then there all of a sudden wil be an influx of BFP.

Twin Sister I am on spot watch also me though I am hoping it is late (we didn't ttc this cycle cause I have surgery in 13days) the later it is the more chance there is of been able to ttc after my lap provided it doesn't make AF show early. Has anyone on here had a lap and not got AF within a few days of the surgery?

Hello to everyone else. Hope your having a good friday and have nice weekend plans. Me I am working.

[Cherished]

Sunny my little ray of sunshine I'm so happy for you my friend Can' wait to read about the arrival of your little princess gosh 19 weeks has gone by so quickly!

Big hugs and a hello to the beautiful Emmy, SnugBug, ferrals, eliselouise, coco, and everyone else in here who I have forgot because I dont' get into this thread enough

AFM I dont' even know what CD I am on I might check my chart today and start doing OPK's and temping again... let the fun begin!

[ric]

helloo eveyone

hows everyone going on? i was always lurking but not posting in the thread....
MurrayCod - I am very very sorry that the cycle didn't work out for you and AF arrived...its just not fair...how are you feeling now?
Mathew'sMum - May be you did a early testing, Hang in there...u have to announce and start the trend of BFP in this thread.
Eliselouise - whats going on there?
Craftymumy9 - glad those OPK worked for you. enjoy the time and give us the good news soon.
coco - all the best for testing
and to the rest of the people i have missed, hope everyone is feeling fine.

with me - i did tested today and got BFN..i am not happy about it, so basically i have to wait for AF to show and start anther month.i think i had unovulatory cycle...who knows...but what can you do.
from now on i have decided to take it easy and go with the flow strategy....

[coco1411]

Naaa for me...I am not certain I am 10dpo though...I thought I would maybe be 9 or 8...not sure...I put faux temps in to see where my crosshairs would be...

Im hopeful though!!!

I spent all my sessions with my legs in the air (not waving like i just dont care) and a pillow under my bum, and there was copius amounts of EWCM so there is NO reason whatsoever for those little (i want to say buggers) precious beings to not meet and get it on and give me a baby after over 2 years of trying.....

Im clearly needing to vent...I am very nervous about our looming FS appointment on Feb 1 2010 where we will be commencing the IUI track....I dont really want to do it..but...

Ferrals, you arent UTD are you?? After all that??

[coco1411]

I just changed my OV detector back to OPK which I think it correct seeing at the temps the day before that day are phoney waiting waiting waiting waiting

[ferrals5]

No girls i wouldn't be pregnant as we have been safe on my fertile days waiting for this freaking ivf sometimes i wish we had been trying naturally all along never know i could be pregnant with a healthy baby by now anyway just got back from acupuncture and i'm having some AF niggly pains god i hope they come tonight.

[Mildez]

Ferrals I hope your AF comes so you can get underway with your new cycle. Its always the way when you need it to come its late and like me I need mine to be late and I bet mine is early.

Coco probably too early for a BFP Hoping that the BFP is only a day or two away.

Cherished1 I love not knowing where I am in my cycle. It never lasts for long with me but before I am working out where I am.

Coco you had a lap a few months back. If you don't mind me asking did you get AF after your lap or did your cycle stay the same? I should be CD10-11 and hoping it doesn't make my AF come again.

[coco1411]

Hey Emmy

Yeah I meant to post about that before sorry..

When I had the lap I was either ovulating that day or had done so the day before as the report showed there was a corpus luteum cyst on my ovary...I had also had my FIRST! lot of EWCM ever though we didnt try...I started spotting at about the same time as normal, 11dpo or so, but after that first af which was quite light mind you, my cycles have been like clockwork. I have a 28 day cycle with one ovary that deploys its egg on CD14 and mostly a 26-27 day cycle with the other ovary. Textbook CM and temping and NO spotting before AF, very mild cramping as opposed to my endometriosis ones prior and NO BLOATING!!! Hoping that yours is normal too xxxxx

[scarypinkfairy]

hey girls

ferrals4 come on af! where is it! so frustrating for you.

Matthew's Mum, coco1411 and ric let's hope you tested too early. there is still a chance if af is still a no show. good luck snugglybean

twin sis, aren't you in the tww as well? (sorry it's hard to keep up with so many people posting). someone has to get bfp this month surely. it's a shame your friend had a m/c too, but at least you can support each other and i bet there will be no more untactfullness.

afm i'm off to docs. the bleeding got worse and it wouldn't surprise me if it was my af now. i really hope it is but i'll see what she has to say. it will have been 3 weeks monday since my d&c but over 6 weeks now since i had the m/c so who knows.

[Twin Sister]

Emmy - hope AF is late and your lap goes well!

ric - I really hope it was just too early for you! AF's not here yet so it's not over yet.

coco - 10dpo is still pretty early. With my last PG I didn't get even a faint line until 11 DPO and it took another week for it to darken up to where it was plainly visible. I was reading one of the TTC journals and one of the girls got BFNs all the way up until something like 20DPO. I'm still hoping for some good news from you.

ferrals - aw i was hoping you maybe got lucky this month. In that case I hope AF hurries up already.

SPF - good luck at the doctor, I hope it is AF and then your cycles can get back to normal. I know how frustrating this must be for you.


AFM - I'm on day 1 of spot watch and so far so good. 3 more days until testing (if I can hold out that long). As it turns out I did get sick. I have this really unpleasant cold with a sore throat and headache. Poor DS is stuck at home with me today watching cartoons while I laze around on the couch (he doesn't seem to mind though since I don't normally let him watch much TV)

[maddison]

Coco - I was just looking at your charts. It looks like your temp usually starts to drop by 10dpo. But this month its still going up. I hope its a good sign for you.

I am still lurking to see some more BFPs. Good luck to everyone that is testing over the weekend or trying to catch that egg!!

Oh and Ferals i hope a/f hurrys up for you!!! This is your month!

[ferrals5]

AF still a no show it usually turns up day 28 or day 29 but if it comes today i can't have a BT until monday unless i drive to sydney in the morning between 7 and 8am this is an exact repeat of last month i got them on a saturday and then had to wait 2 days for BT and the results were not good which i wonder if the 2 day delay was the reason i am not feeling real confident now i will be happy if AF now doesnt come until sunday then i can have BT the next morning( just a little luck on my side please)

[coco1411]

Hey Maddi, yeah, well it did go down today so hoping that it rises again tomorrow...Im feleing alot of like.. tightness or something across where my uterus would be. Im also feeling stabby pains where my belive my ovaries are. Im not sure what is happening so..

Bfn again this morning and feeling a little unsure about it all, feeling quite emotional today prefering my own company you know?

Hope you're well everyone xxxx

[coco1411]

Also..I think i am unsettled because I am desperate to be pregnant for my birthday or christmas, and if not, Im terrified to not be by Feb and start assisted conception. The whole thing is quite confronting! I thought we would be pregnant by the time our due date had come. Grrrr

[Twin Sister]

Also..I think i am unsettled because I am desperate to be pregnant for my birthday or christmas, and if not, Im terrified to not be by Feb

That's so funny, me too. When is your Birthday? Mine's Dec 9th and I really really want to be PG by then. It would be really great to be PG in time to give everyone some good news when we go visit at Christmas too.

I'm also terrified of not being PG by Feb as I really want to have another baby before I turn 35 and I need to be PG before February ends in order for that to happen. Also my EDD was march 24 and of course I want to be PG before that.

Very emotional here too. I cried over some commercial today and then laughed at myself for it. I can't even remember what it was about.

Ferrals - fingers crossed Af shows on Sunday so your blood test can go well.
