Oh clairesmummy Im glad u have found a good gyno to see... pity hes 5 hrs drive! What a mission!! But worth it. I think clomid wld work wonders for u.. it wld definitely help u to O every month and make ur cycles more regular.. did u talk to ur dr about it today?? Did ur df end up getting his SA done on monday?? U cld even have PCOS... or maybe just PCO.. irregular periods are a huge symptom of this. Arent our bodies frustrating! I reckon if i hadnt gone on clomid mine still wldnt know how to menstrate each month a year and a half later after going off the pill! Best of luck.. oh and im with forshelby.. i hope ur bding urself silly right now!!!
Mum22- Just incase u dont come straight over to the paml thread.. im so happy everything is going well for u now!! Whats ur edd?? Are u in kells and my bb group?? Im like u.. still too scared to buy or look at anything baby! I think it will take me another couple months still.. well done for buying some comfy clothes tho! xx
Thanks ladies you are all such a wonderful wonderful support to me it's unbelievable I could not go through all this with out you all and my wonderful DF. Well I'm still no closer to anything after my GP appointment this afternoon, just another excuse for her to take my blood from me I think......Still feeling really let down and uncertain about anything right now but like all of you have said I will follow all your great advice and keep on soldiering on with TTC for now. Anyhow DR took yet another BT she was really shocked to see me back there in this situation though she thought I would of been in there for my BFP or AF would of arrived for me by now as she said it's very unusual for me to have such a long cycle. So they will be checking for O again in my BT and also doing a pregnancy check in the BTs as well. I told her about getting 3 BFN HPTs and 2 BFPs on my OPKs hence the BT I guess. So might do a BD session again tonight if I feel up to it.....maybe.....She said if this BT comes back saying that I have no O and no PG she is definately giving me a referral to go to a OB/GYN. And also got a fair bit of info about specialist in our area well 2 hours away. Looking like I will go private though instead of going public 5 hours away. Got some idea of what it will cost us to see a private specialist and what they hopefully can do for us. DR seems to think the worst case senario will be IUI with a specialist but she seems to think that Clomid will be the answer for me....FX.....I broke down in tears in there and told her my main fear is that I am starting to go through menopause she asked me at what age did my mum go through it and I told her the truth Mum never had me until she was 45 my sister was 18 when I was born, mind you mum wasn't real happy to find out about being UTD at that age but like I tell her I'm the best one out of the 3 of us....lol.....DR told me if my mum had me at the age of 45 to stop stressing about menopause cause we obviously have really good eggs in our genes. Yeah well it aint helping me now is it......So once again here I sit until Monday at 11:40am until I can get more BT results.
Wow it's soooo quiet in here today, hope I haven't put you all off on my downer yesterday, Sorry for being such a whinge bum yesterday ladies. Guess I'm stressed out more than what I realise about everything.
I got lost! A new thread started and i got left behind! I have read a little bit but still have so much to catch up on.
I'm sorry you are having such trouble Clairesmummy. I hope your Dr can help to get it sorted soon
I don't know what the heck is going on with me either. I have kinda started charting just using an iPhone app (P Tracker) but i don't really know what i am doing! I started taking my temperature (just with a digital thermometer, under my arm) but i was doing it at any time of the day until i read you are supposed to take it before you get up in the morning! Oops! So, i guess all i have done so far wouldn't really be that accurate! I have had very strange cycles for the last 3 months with NO EWCM (which is unusual for me) with AF coming late, then early, then even earlier. I am not having any obvious O signs and it doesn't help that my DH works away and is only home for the weekends!
I started getting sore BB's yesterday and i was thinking that it could be promising (i'm on CD16) but then this morning i woke up with blocked milk ducts that feels like it's going to turn into mastitis .... so there goes that theory!
I also had a bit of AF style cramping so maybe i'm O'ing late... who knows. I'm over it to tell you the truth... I am ready to be pregnant now... hurry up body. I had a bit of a cry last night.. i would have been 28 weeks last sunday. I miss my baby.
My 2 besties are both pregnant (one 20weeks, one 35 weeks) and i am supposed to be organising their baby showers. Awesome. I feel bad but i really don't feel up to celebrating their babies when i miss my own so much. Don't get me wrong, i am so happy for them... just sad, for me.
Sorry about the poor me post. I'm sorry i haven't contributed much but i have been kept very busy by my beautiful 10.5 month old who is getting into absolutely EVERYTHING at the moment! He keeps me sane, i just adore him.
I will try very hard to keep up from now on.. have a lovely day ladies.
Stoked- I know how you feel hun. I should have been just over 34weeks.
AFM- I'm not sure if I will ever want to TTC again. I do know that right now I find it hard coming up to O because DP knows that it is time yet I am avoiding it. I was supposed to see him last night and cancelled because I got an almost + OPK yesterday and with all the other signs, I know that I am Oing today and if I seen DP then there would have been a chance of falling PG...
clairesmummy: good to hear you are making progress with the dr, no matter what the blood tests say mon make sure you get that referral !
did you do another opt yesterday ? and did you dtd just in case ?
joeve: how long to go now ?
Melster: how are your opt's going ?
afm well my blood test results basically showed the bleeding i had was my period so i was torn about taking clomid because it is meant to be taken around day 4 onwards and im now on day 8 but after a lot of thought i decided i would as when i fell pregnant with my DD i took it on day 7 (because that happened to be the day i was when i saw the specialist), so i took it last night so i will see how things go, we may not even try this cycle, might just use it to hopefully sort out my cycle length and try next time.....who knows......
Clairesmummy....nah dont worry thats what this forum is here for....and i am sure with you with the downer posts so dont worry...mine aint been real happy thats for sure!!!!
Stoked...i'm with ya babe......How many cycles are you now? I know with me lately, i think i havent been o'ing...one cycle i was 5 days late then the next one i was 8 days early...and now i am on my forth after D@C...........i went to my dr and i am seeing my ob on monday....so maybe go to you're drs and see whats happening...its very frustrating isnt it and no wonder you dont have the energy for the baby showers...i handled a baby shower with drinking (not saying its the best option but worked for me LOl)
ATM....just waiting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and want to bang my head against a wall for not relaxing!!!!!!!!!!!!
Minniemouse.....havent got my OPK's yet..hoping they will arrive today...cervix feels at my finger tip...but no CM......i was hoping the news of the appointment would have helped me relax a bit knowing something was happening and it would help me o...but who knows....
Well at least you're on a roll now and have had you're period and you can get things started now...
Minniemouse - oh yay for starting clomid, what a weird period then??? Our bodies are crazy!!!
4 days of TWWing to go.................draggginggggggggggggggggggggggg ggg
Yes I am waiting like a good girl this month! Thats probably why I am so bored, usually I would POAS and spending hours analysing a single line trying my hardest to see to something else!
Stoked- Sorry to hear your cycles are messing you around darl, I know exactly how you feel though. Hopefully things get better for you real soon and wow 10and a half months old boy what a gorgeous age that is, even though it keeps us mummies hopping like crazy they are so adorable. Don't be sorry about your post darl, it's better to get it all off your chest than bottle it in there. Good Luck with O day darl hope your cycle settles soon for you.
Damprye- You must have the willpower of steel darl to avoid O time. Take some time for you and have a good chomp on some choccies. Hope you are feeling better soon darl. Sending you some hugs. I know how you feel though somedays I just wanna chuck it all in and totally give up, it makes you feel like you are putting your life on hold and not getting any where.
Minnie- Hope the Clomid works for you darl, FX for you. Have done more OPTs yesterday and today and they are all +ives and dark +ives as well so don't think I have O'd yet.
Melster- Please stay away from walls hun cause if you bang your head on them it's gunna hurt like heaps darl especially if it's a brick wall.......stay calm cool and collected and leave it and see what yah OB says when you see him/her. Just keep DTD and try to put everything else on hold. Yeah I know what a laugh hey me telling someone to stay cool and calm I can't even do it myself....lol.....ah well I'm here for yah if yah wanna vent darl.......
Joeve- Thanks for the kind words darl, hugs to you. I say stand your ground and wait don't test early cause we don't all get the +ive result early on and they say it's better to wait and see if AF is late or not. But then hey I'm now 10 days late and still no sign of AF and NO BFP, lol. But that's just me I must be special......lol...lol...lol.....kidding. I'm really just a lost cause. LOL....
~AFM~ Well I am now officially 10 days late with AF and still have no sign of her even coming my way as yet. No spotting a little bit of cramping yesterday and today but other than that nothing. Still have VERY VERY VERY sore tender nipples sorry if TMI feel a bit bloated today. So maybe she is on her way I don't know. Have been doing my OPTs I only have 2 left now so gunna have to get some more, anyhow they have all been dark +ives from Tuesday night not getting any lighter at all. Wish Monday would hurry up and get here. Oh and the good news is I have found an OB/GYN over in Toowoomba and I can get nearly straight in to see him only have to wait a week if that once I get my referral on Monday (hopefully) So FX I will get some answers to all my questions real soon.
Thanks hun. The thing I am most glad about atm is that I managed to avoid O this month, I was so worried I wouldn't. The 19th was the EDD of my first pregnancy. I hope that with you find out what is going on with your body soon.
Thank you Damprye, I think you deserve a good chocoalte moment darl for sticking to yah guns and avoiding O time. It must be hard when our due date of our lost bubs approaches and we still have no bub to hold. My bub was due on the 1st of November I'm trying not to think to much about it atm but as time gets closer I think I'm getting more restless about it.
Hi Lovely Ladies
Geez this thread has been moving in the last couple of days. Ive kinda been reading and keeping up a little
Clairesmummy ~ so sorry about your cycle being so all over the place - I know how frustrating it can be. Could it be your system still trying to get back to norm after your m/c? as I know that mine was still playing up even before I started the IVF - about 5 months after m/c. But I did feel it was starting to improve. I hope you get some answers soon no matter what though hun and hope you can continue to keep trying - I know you might feel time is going quickly and you still havent got there but 34 is a good age - you still have time and a precious DD already but Im sure you want to add to that family . No need to apologise - we are all here for you. You might find that as soon as your cycles go back to normal again - whether its with medical help or without, that you'll fall PG straight away, really hope so for you. Thinking of you and hugs.
Minniemouse ~ GL on the clomid, really hoping it works and you can get that BFP very soon.
Damprye ~ yes you are very strong and Im happy that you are happy and can maybe take a break from TTC.
Joeve ~ FX and Are you going to come into the TWW thread?
Melster ~ hope time moves quickly for you and you can get stuck into trying again.
Stoked ~ welcome back and best of luck.
Hi everyone - Hope everyone is well - besides the stress and the colds going around.
AFM ~ My cold, doesnt seem to be getting any worse which is good but Im a bit worried its going to have an effect on my embies still. Im trying really hard to not read into any symptoms this time but ive had some weird kinda sharp jabs on the RHS of my lower belly. I feel it could be 1 of 4 things though, this cold and all the coughing, the Crinone cream im using and wind etc, AF going to come early or finally and hopefully implantation pain. I am currently at about 8DPO and 5DPTransfer - might test on Sunday but no earlier
