Sorry to hear everyone is having a difficult time atm!
I am trying my damnest to stay positive in many ways and keeping away from this thread has been one of those ways so I appologise for being absent! \
I find it too emotional some days and other days it is my solace! I guess when I can handle the pain and the reminder of what I went through (like everyone) Im here aaaall the time, but when I need a distraction I try to stay away too.
I am going to be back in the dreaded but much anticipated by wednesday or thursday at the lasest Im certain! Im pretty excited actually!
I dont want to think I am pregnant this month but I dont want to jinx it and be realistic (negative )either!
Hope you all find some comfort and ways to ease your pains xx
I hope everyone had a relaxing weekend, to all I hope this is our cycle!!!
Was shopping in mildura thisafternoon and saw a lovely dress that I could wear to my friends wedding in November, I didn't buy it because I don't want to be able to fit into it by then...I want a babybelly too. My girlfriend asked me to be her MOH at her wedding but when she found out I fell PG in Jan she gave me the boot BC she didn't want a pregnant fatty in her photoes. Now she has 5 other bridesmaids and I'm feeling a little left out, she doesn't call me anymore but as DH says she will be back hunting for friends after her "Big Day" when reality of life kicks in...... I sound like a cow but this is the place to vent our true feelings hey!
Coco I would love to give you all the info and advice you need re IUI. Hopefully it doesn't get that far for you to need it but knowing all about it can only be a bonus and it may even take your mind of things like......TWW for example! Nice to have plans if you need them x Ask me anything anytime. I added you as a friend too
Sparkles YAY for AF!!!! Never thaught I'd say that to someone here.
Maddison what shop do you have in SHill? I live on the river in R'vale I nurse at the hospital there and my DH is a blockie...I would love to see you next time I'm in SHill that would be great. X
Bookworm I hope AF eased for you over the weekend The day I get AF i'm useless, very heavy and awfull cramping, but only usually lasts for the day. I hope that you are feeling much much better now darling.
Cherished the Natropath in SwanHill had me on:
Endo Mix for endometriosis...have never been diagnosed with endo though
Iron Sustain
Ultra Extend for health wellbeing
B6
Metagen B12/Folate
Ovarianne for reproductive support
......................and Tran-Quil for nervouse tension and anxiety....sounds like a Tranquiliser....didn't think I came off that bad
Also has Accupuncture there too.
I got my BFP 4mnths after taking the natural supplements but in the end I was forgetting days and running out of this pill and that....so I dunno. Was costing a VERY lot of money.
In saying that the IUI is costing a total of $1100 a try so I guess I have just contradicted myself in saying that!!!
AFM I had my ultrasound today to see how my eggies are doing, but bad news was I hvn't reacted to the Puregon Inj as well as I did last month so I have to go thru anoth 4 nights of Puregon and have anoth scan Friday morn. I was hoping to have the IUI on day 14 which is Thurs but our bodies dont exactly like being told what to do I have worked that out!
Good news is that I do have 2 eggies at 13mm (only had 1 last month) so hope they both get to 19mm by Friday and then Saturdat is the day!!! Will keep you all posted on how things are moving along.
One good thing Coco is that I'm constantly doing something every day of my cycle from day5 so it keeps me buisy and excited but as you said that TWW is like watching lawn bowls in slow motion. AGONY!!!!
Chickybabe I hope that you had a restfull weekend and that you got good news today, you have been in my thaughts x
Kyrawolf TinaR Joshsmum I hope that you are all doing really really well and thankyou for hovering over us still. It's lovely to hear how you are all going xxx
Starangel, SammyP, Eliselouise, Sunny, Sparkles, Emmy, Zeppy, TwinSister and LladyR hope you are all having a great start to the week. Wow there are a heap of us here.
It'l take time for me to get to know everyone! ATM I'm writing little notes so I Dn't get everyone mixed up
Murray, sorry to hear you have to stay on those awful injections for a bit longer.... I hope it does the trick!! xx
Coco... have fun BDing!!
Haven't had a chance to read what is happening but I hope all is well with you all.
I am now in the tww..... Banjo's edd is quickly approaching. I remember after my 1st m/c I got a BFP a couple of days after bub's edd... wonder if the same is going to happen this time.... bet it doesn't!
I had my scan yesterday and the news was 50/50....
There is a heartbeat ! 114bpm and measuring at 6 wks 2 days. I have myself 2 days infront of that going off my LMP.
There is a seperate sac next to the baby which is where the bleeding is coming from. Apparently it will either just pass or it will cause me to miscarry.....
This is called a Subchorionic bleed ? Happened at implantation when all the cells and blood etc get together.
So we arent out of the woods yet by any means. I just go back to waiting now - again !
At least i know what is causing the bleeding, so strangely it doesnt seem as scary now cause i have an answer but still very much on edge knowing that it can all go wrong so quickly. Aaaaaahhhhhhhh!
So i guess this means you havent got rid of me yet - i cant leave - you all give me strength - i hope you dont mind if i stay ?
I hope you are all having a good day.
I am not feeling great so i am laying down alot and doing a bit of lurking...
Maddison of course i am lurking how can i not keep an eye on my girl's you all helped me through hell and back i read all your post's and cross my finger's and get excited for you all and also get dissapointed when thing's don't work out i miss you all but as i'm still waiting and not actively TTC just yet i'm in the other thread's getting as much info as possible on pgd ivf but i don't have long now next month if all goe's to plan about the 10th of oct if the testing is on time and i hope to see you in the pregnancy thread's if it work's.
hi girls i suppose i need to join this thread now. went for my 12 week scan today and unfortunately the baby had not been growing for a while. have to go to doctors tomorrow and try and sort things out but am in shock over the whole thing
scarypinkfairy - I am so sorry for your loss, I can only begin to imagine how you must be feeling right now. I am so glad you have posted in this thread, the ladies here are just wonderfully supportive. We will be here for you as much as you need.
Scarypinkfairy-Sorry you've needed to use this thread,I also found out that my baby was gone at routine scan and found it hard to believe as didn't have any miscarriage symptoms.hugs
So sorry to hear about your loss the exact same thing happened to me 3 weeks ago and it is so hard to take in the fact your baby has died. I had a D&C on sept 3rd and have been trying again since I stopped bleeding just want to fill this empty feeling I have inside. I have done this before and have gone on to have healthy babies so I know it will come right in the end it just takes some of us a bit longer and a bit harder but the end prize is what makes it all worth it in the end. So keep positive and soon you will be doig another test and seeing those lines change colour ! not too long for all of us I hope !
hey alx, welcome does not seem the right thing to say, as no one wants to be in this thread, but all i can say is i know how you feel.
craftymummy and snugglybean, it was the worst feeling ever and it's horrible to know you have been through the same thing. to get a third of the way through the pregnancy then to be told your baby is not growing is devastating. i knew straight away i could see the sac but no baby. my dh has not eaten since we found out and he is worrying me.
good luck with your amnio zstar
hey twin sister, were we in the belly buddies group together? i was due end of march. hope you are doing ok.

So who is with me in the TWW? I haven't told anyone we are still trying. When people ask I try and act nonchalant and say "if it happens it happens" because I don't want people to know how desperate I have become.
Today was the day I said I was starting a new diet but I only got as far as buying the new Prevention magazine which features the "Belly Fat Diet" and I read it while I polished off the jelly beans leftover from a party. I know I should be trying to get as healthy as possible but I did that before I got pregnant in April. I had lost 6kg and was feeling really good. Now, two little angels later I feel like "what's the point?" and I have put back about 5kg.
I told my older sister about my miscarriage (she'd heard) and she shared the fact that she had a miscarriage a few weeks before her wedding in 2006. I never knew. It can't have been an easy time for her with all that added stress. She was wearing a dress at her wedding that I was surprised she picked as it wasn't very bridal. It turned out she was wearing the bridesmaids dress. Half an hour before the wedding when she went to put her wedding dress on, the corset type bodice split down the back and had had to come up with a plan B quickly.
These recent pregnancies seem to have thrown my hormones into chaos. I haven't had pimples (decent ones) in over 10 years. Now I have a massive one on my face that . . . TMI . . . burst all over the mirror! What am I, a teenager again?
Sorry I am rabbiting on. I am very bored and all I can think about is babies and there isn't anyone I can talk to. DH is sympathtic but he's heard enough.
Hello to everyone out there. I think I remember Tanya being in the TWW? I'd love to hear how you are doing Kyra if you are still around.
Sammy - Good luck with the 2ww. I hope you get that BFP this month to ease your heart a little. Isnt it amazing how people dont tell you about having a m/c until you say you have had. I tell anyone who asks me about us having a baby as i feel that one day someone in real life will need to talk and they will know i understand.
Im on my way out of the 2ww at 11dpo. A few more days til a/f or testing for me. Was thinking about testing tomorrow but might just wait for a/f to either show or not show this month.

Maddison - testing used to be kind of fun. Now I think I may not test until AF is a week overdue. I will be checking up on you tomorrow, just in case you change your mind.
Coco - ovulation was hard to pinpoint this month due to the recent loss but I think it was Saturday which makes me 4DPO.
I am new to this website and just wanted to share my story. On August 21st I had a miscarriage. We had been trying since May and thought it would take longer, but when I got the BFP we were so excited!!! I tested positive on saturday August 15th, and by tuesday I started spotting. Went into the doctor and my hcg evels were only at 45. She gave me a sonogram to only discover there was nothing there so my dr told me that I was going through a miscarriage and sure enough on August 21st I started bleeding heavily! This was tough on me and my DH. I finally got the clear today that everything is back to normal! I am anxious to try again and hope that it does not take to long.
