    loops i dont know much about ivf, what is a antagonist cycle ?

    Clairesmummy: i hope you again have the house to yourself and you are enjoying the peace !

    mum2romone: i haven't have a d&c with my m/c's so don't really know, it sounds like you were treated pretty badly following it, i hope you get some answers from the early preg lady

    possum: i would get ewcm for a few days before ovulation so you are still in with a chance, fingers crossed for you. i know what you mean about feeling sad when friends are onto their next baby, since i had my son a few of my friends have had 2 babies while i have had 3 m/c

    Melster: its so hard to work out what is going on, as long as you are still bd you should be in with a chance !

    Matthewsmum: i hope af is being kind to you and i hope you get good results from natural therapies


    afm still no af day 52 now !! sssooo frustrating why does she come when we don't want her and won't come when we do !!

    Possum - I'm honoured that you would consider me fit to be stalked. Try not to despair about o'ing. I was SURE I'd missed the boat in my BFP cycle, and we only DTD twice around my fertile time. We managed a quickie before work one day and ta-daa... so it can happen with limited opportunities. I understand how hard it must be for you to watch other's families grow and yours hasn't yet. I don't know why some of us have everything fall into place and others don't. I hate that 'everything happens for a reason' talk, and I think sometimes there is no reason, it's just the way things are and that's the path we have to follow. Because honestly, what reason could there be for such a touch journey? FX for a quick BFP for you, and a happy healthy pg.

    Melster - And so it continues. I hope you're UTD and that's why you didn't pick up your O.

    Minnie - Maybe the dr can give you something to force af? I can't imagine how frustrating that would be.

    Loops- You are very welcome my dear.......Let us know how you get on with your egg collection please.
    Minni- Yes I FINALLY have my peaceful little home back to it's crazy ol' self today and what a huge sigh of relief I breathed......
    Mum2Ramone- I have no advice what so ever on D&Cs sorry, my MC was a natural one, best wishes that you O soon though darl.
    Possum- I would be in total shock if I got a BFP this month and would probably have a heart attack as I am not expecting a BFP at all this month. But I have my FX you have caught your egg darl and get your BFP.
    AFM- Well we got all our fence up today for my vegie patch I have now started......THANK YOU Forshelby for the idea of growing something, I know I got a little carried away and went for the full vegie patch.....lol.....planted strawberries, tomatoes, lettuce and carrots so far and MIL bought me a Navel Orange tree and I planted that the other day. Now to sit back and watch them "HOPEFULLY" grow......FX..... My first vegie patch Ive had since I was a little girl......so excited. Feeling good so far, wish AF would hurry up and get here so I can get to the gyno. Been suffering a bit of heartburn the last few days just get rid of the heartburn and I get a niggling headache.......still have sore BBs and sorry if TMI but I've also had alot of gas "both ends" the last day or 2........so it's cd24 for me today and no AF as yet. Hope you have all had a great week end and a safe one.
    Hi to Forshelby, Reet, Kell and GlenGlen if you are stalking still, I hope you are all feeling good.
    Mum22- If you are out there I just want to say hi and send you massive cyber hugs darl, hope all is good with you.

    Morning ladies...how is everyone..i wrote a post but dont know what happened to it..!!!

    ATM......im real sensitive at the moment to everything and everyone..im real touchy and real emotional...its so annoying.....im getting affected by the smallest things or getting upset by what feels like rejection....bahhhhhhh...feel the need to be with people all the time and be invited everywhere....think im going through a moment...

    My boobs are so massive at the moment i cant fit into my bras..i cant beleive it.....and there kinda achy (could be one of two things..weight gain or pregnancy) im quiet gassy and have been burping like a trooper. Still got those strange feelings in my stomach..kinda burning/period dull ache type pain..still feel quiet wet i think...kinda a bit sicky.....but im not getting my hopes up as i have felt this way before and not been pregnant....i keep thinking im pregnant ....but could be my emotions and im not trusting my judgement now especially when i have no idea when i o'd..still going to use an opk this afternoon

    Melster- Sounds like you are having a bit of a rough trot at the moment darl. Sending you some cyber hugs that will hopefully make you feel a little better. Can you go to your DR and ask for a BT just to have a check on if you are O'ing, it may put you mind at ease a little and it may make you feel a little better knowing that you are heading in the right direction. you have/will catch your egg.
    AFM- Looks like AF is going to be here right on time for me this month had my temp dip this morning so I'm guessing but I should have another dip tomoro then AF by Wednesday hopefully So it will be off to the Gyno for me. Can't wait to get in there and see what they say and what we are going to do.

    Thank Iona I'm praying AF will arrive by Wednesday at the latest be good if it's sooner though. DF is all set for his SA to be done hopefully he can take the day off on Friday and we can get that done and I'm hoping to get into the gyno asap as well. Feels pretty good to have an action plan now like we are at least heading in the right direction to get our BFP and our little bring hom bundle of joy.....FX.
    I was a little on the concerned side when I rang up to see if we had to book in to have DFs SA done as the first lady I spoke to told me we would have to go to a public toilet to get the sample, after sitting there totally shocked for a few seconds I thought to myself well there goes getting the SA done there is no way in this world DF would do something like that not ever, so then I rang the private hospital and they told me that's a load of rubbish they have rooms for getting swimmer samples and that to come in and they will look after us. And she also told me that our DR will have our results that day or at the latest the following morning so that was good news as well. So it looks like everything is slowly falling into place for us which is such a HUGE relief for me and feels like the weight of the world has been taken off my shoulders, it's great.

    Thanks so much for all your kind wishes ladies. My Egg Collection has been pushed back to Wed now which hopefully means even more eggs will be collected, keeping FX'd anyway. I will keep you posted as to how I go.

    Minnie ~ I dont really get it that much either but Antagonist needles are different somehow and supposedly I will get better quality eggs collected - heres hoping!

    Goodluck to everyone with ovulating, b'ding etc and Melster ~ hope they are PG signs hun!

    Matthewsmum ~ GL trying naturally and with the natural remedies, your body will probably do well with a bit of a break xo

    Sending lots of to all

    Clairesmummy- I cant believe they first mentioned a public toilet! That is awful! Stupid stupid woman. Imagine how many other guys just end up going along with it.. i cant imagine anything worse then having to try and get myself in the mood in a public toilet! When my dh got both of his samples done he cld do them at home and just had to have them at the pathology within an hour.. u live a bit out of town tho dont u? We also were very naughty and bd'ed to begin the whole process.. apparently ur not meant to do that because the females stuff can interfere with the testing.. but it didnt seem to matter.. i got the results i was hoping for.. they werent crash hot! Dh then realised he had to pull his head in and get a bit more healthy.. which he did by the 2nd test.
    Wishing him the best of luck.. ur going to have to get him all randy before he goes to do his sample!
    Oh and if u go on clomid and have any questions just ask me.. i was on it for 5 cycles

    Hi to all u other lovely ladies too.. always checking up on u girls still

    loops: here's hoping you get better quality follies and i hope the extra few days gets you more !

    Reet and forshelby and Iona good to see you still popping in, hope you are all going well

    Reet- I will and do have millions of questions about Clomid.......There is NO way in this world my DF would of went to a public toilet to get his sample that much I do know for sure. Yeah we live 2 hours away from the testing centre so couldn't do it at home and take it in....worse luck.....When my DR was organising the forms for DF to have his SA done she also said she doesn't think there will be to much wrong with his swimmers as he has got the job done twice for me now so even she reckons I'm the problem (lacking for better words at the moment) But at least this way we will know one way or the other what we are dealing with. Not sure about the getting him all randy part as I will have DD with me when we go so I suggested maybe I could help out in another way. Mobile phones are a great invention...IYKWIM......lol......I'm just hoping AF will be here either tomoro or Wednesday or I will have to wait until next month for another BT and I just want to get in and see the gyno NOW I don't want to wait another month before we can make things happen. So seeing as though you have given me the all clear to ask you all about Clomid can I please ask, are the side effects from taking it as bad as I have read on the net as in hot flushes, being sick, migraines, moody cause DF reckons I'm moody enough now so that won't change much then he tells me........lol.....And is the risk of twins higher on Clomid if you have twins in your family???? As I said I have a million questions darl but I won't hit you with them all at once.....lol.....Hope you are bub are travelling along well darl and you must have your 12wk scan soon......Can't wait to hear all about it where can I stalk all my PG friends to see how you are all going???? Missing you all heaps in here it's sooooo quiet with you all.

    Minnie- Hope AF hurries up and gets to you soon darl so you can start your TTC journey, maybe we may end up being AF buddies we must be the only ones in here wishing she would just get her butt here like NOW please AF.....lol....The patholigist told me today when I rang them that they will have DFs results to our DR by the end of the day or early the next day at the latest which was like music to my ears to hear that. I'm getting very impatient now and just wanna get the ball rolling. Bring on AF for us I say darl FX she arrives for us both very very very soon......

    Clairesmummy- Haha love ur mobile phone idea.. good thinking! Even if his results all come back brilliant its so interesting to find out the results.. like how many swimmers there are and how many of them are abnormal and how many of them are moving correctly etc.. very very interesting!
    I didnt really get any of those symptoms on clomid.. everyone is different tho. I did get mood swings tho.. i lost the plot at dh a few times during that week when i was taking it.. i still say i had good reason too tho and he deserved it haha.. but nah it did make me a bit erratic.. u might cry.. u might get angry.. if u and ur df are prepared for it tho its a lot easier to deal with! Oh i also got really sore ovaries around O time.. right across my lower tummy was really tender.. bding wld hurt in some positions too.
    Im not sure about the twins thing if u already have them in the family.. i know there is a higher chance of having twins when ur on clomid but its only about 10% or something. I was hoping i wld be that 10%!
    I hope these answers have helped! I am more then happy to answer any more u have!
    My 12 week scan is on wednesday.. saw bubs at ob. appointment today and everything is looking perfect so im actually really excited about this u/s for once!

    Clairesmummy....i cant believe they said he had to use a public toilet...thats so discusting...you're poor DH...luckily the other people came to the rescue...otherwise maybe the car would have been a better option..but can you imagine if he got caught LOL......a friend i know went on clomid...i think she lied to the dr how long they had been trying though because they had only been trying six months, and she had a history of depression and post natal not eating with the othe pregnancy etc...and she has ended up with twins and only wanted a girl..so of course she isnt paying any attention to the boy and only the girl and she cant look after them...and she has really bad post natal.....but she is the only person i know...so sorry hun...i am PRAYING for you that AF comes.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Iona...thanks..you might not want me to let them all out on here LOL LOL

    Minniemouse...yeah i did one in the arvo and it was a bit darker than the yesterdays one but not very dark...im a mess at the moment....so i think it depends were i am at with my cycle to how i feel.....Can you go to the dr and get you're af kick started..isnt there a tablet they can give you to bring on af??? i just wish i knew if i was ovulating or not..and then i would probably relax a little...my dr knows everything so i am not sure he would give me a blood test knowing we have only been trying 3months after mc

    Loops...thanks

    Hie reet...hope you're going well!!!!!

    Mum22.....i have tried to send you PM but you're box is still full...just letting you know i am thinking of you..

    Forshelby thinking of you too...and spy on the pregnancy one just to check out whats going on.....

    ATM......i have no idea whats going on with me....i look pregnant....my boobs are killing me and are sooooooo heavy....i am not happy about this weight and the wierdest thing happened last night...i woke up with belly pains at 1.30 and then had to (Go!!!) to the toilet....that was really strange for me.....that never happens in the middle of the night...i have had period type pains on and off....cervix is still med/highish...and wet...but thats about it....so heres to waiting yet AGAIN having no real idea whats going on....

    Reet- Awesome that you got to see your bub again, so happy you are feeling more confident about your 12week scan now that's awesome news darl. I will try and prepare DF for my moodiness than...lol...he reckons I'm moody enough now can't wait till he gets a taste of real mood swings.....lol....lucky for me he is a patient loving man or I could of been divorced already..... Good luck for Wednesday darl make sure you get them to give you a pic of bub when he/she waves at you.... Wow sounds like Clomid will be a blast hey.......hmmm as long as it works that's all that matters to us. Thanks for the info on it feels better be a little prepared for it.
    Melster- I told DF what that chick said to me about going to the public toilet to get his sample and like I predicted he said like beeping hell I will do that, so luckily I had the hospital to turn too or we wouldn't of got to get the SA done at all.....lol.......and there would be no way in this world he would of done it in the car......lol....I'm not sure how I would cope with the news of having twins be scared at first but I would love them both just as much. At least if I was lucky enough to have twins 1 boy 1 girl our family would then be complete......DF would love twins he keeps telling me you know if you do get pregnant we are going to have twins and DD keeps telling me she going to have a brother and sister one day soon.....so I guess at least they are in thier own way preparing me for it and so is my DR.....lol.....
    AFM- Well still no sign of AF yet, this time last cycle she was raising her head by now but all I have had is some cramping and feeling like she is going to hit at any second but when I go to check there is nothing. Just like AF aint it when you don't want her there she is raising her ugly head when not wanted now when I DO want her she is staying away and leading me down the garden path......go figure......AF please come and visit me no later than tomoro lunch time please please please....I am begging of you.
