Easha--Your DH may be in for some competition with my DS on being the biggest star wars fan! lol... When we went to Hollywood they had several of the characters walking around... DS has pics with Yoda, Darth, Jango Fett (sp?), Chewie, and I think a Storm Trooper. He was in heaven! Supposedly my FIL (whom I've met, but never been inside his house--he lives in another state) has a whole room full of Star Wars stuff with a life-sized Darth and Yoda! That's a little extreme, but DS loves to hear all about it!
My temp went up slightly again this am, but chickened out on POAS!! At 9DPO it just still feels too early, and I just don't want to waste the money on another test if this one's negative!!! I'm :pray: for another high temp from you today so you can POAS and tell us all about your BFP!!! :crossfingers:
mollycat--Sounds like too much hard work! Just remember how pretty and clean it's all going to be when you're finished! Where's that psycho cleaning lady when you need her? :hug:
joey--What a trip!! No, I don't mean the trip you took, I mean I'm tripping out! I mentioned your name to my step mom while on vacation last week, and she said "there's a girl named Joey on there?" I said "yeah, well, my sister's boyfriend calls her Joey and her name's Joliene, so I'm sure it's a nickname for something" What a trip! Your name is the same as my sis's!!! Just spelled differently! It's such an uncommon name! Dolly Parton named a song about you! :lol:
IYKWIM= if you know what I mean! ;)
Sorry to hear about your DH... I get that a lot from mine, too... the "don't worry, it'll happen when it's supposed to" blah, blah, blah... and no dinners out for me when AF shows either! :wtf:
Not too sure about the accupuncture--but Angel, Krystie, and plc (and I'm sure some of the others) could probably help you out with those questions.
Sorry again about your BFN's--I'm :pray: you'll be pleasantly surprised with your BT results! :crossfingers:

Sandygirl--The TTC journey can definitely be a bumpy one, it's easy to be consumed by it all. I wish you the best of luck with the Clomid, and pray your break from BB and temping helps takes some of the stress off TTC. Don't forget to let us know when you get your BFP!! Sending you off with lots of :pink-babydust: and big hugs!
My other half of Nuff--Wishing you lots of :goodluck2: for you FS appt. on Tue! Missed chatting with you this am! :hug:
tut--I'm so excited for you--only 1 more sleep to go until your u/s!! YAY!!! Sending you some :goodluck2: and some :stickyvibesgirl:
jenushka--Just wanted to send you some :hug: Hope you're doing ok, hon! You're never far from my thoughts!
Krystie--Angel sent me those pics! :cheer: It's so funny how you look just like you type, I just can't get over it! I was telling DF that, but I told him you look just like you sound, and he reminded me that I've never actually heard how you sound--but I could swear that I hear you through your typing--it's creepy! DF thinks I'm a loon! I'm still waiting for the one that has me edited into it! :rofl:
This is 2 mornings in a row now that I've had to go without my Pill Girl fix! It's like a morning without coffee!! Missing you girl! *kiss*
-
Hmmmm.... I'm feeling like a bit of a loser sitting in the chat room by myself at 1.34 in the morning... :ROFL:
-
Jen & Easha - Sorry girls, but I am sure that neither of your boys can possibly be as big a fan of StarWars than me!!! I don't want to bore you with all the details, but I'll just mention Gold Editions on both vid and dvd, managed to go to the first australian screening of Episode 1 (everyone dressed up, it was so funny!), meccano Millenium Falcon, an X-wing, snuck into my sister's bosses conference room because he has one of the original Darth Vador costumes from Episodes 4-6 (you wouldn't velieve how tacky it looks up close, but at the same time is was so mega COOL!!! I touched Darth Vader!!! :ROFL: ), then went and looked at his origianl storm trooper costume too, lol!. Ok, I'll stop now, I'm feeling even more of a loser now. Actually, nope, I don't care what you think, I love it HAHAHA! Seriously, how can you not all love Han Solo?!
Jen nuff - Super temps missy!!!
I'll get my camera out tomorrow (well later today technically) and transfer the photos to my computer.
Are you saying I'm like caffeine??? :P
Angel nuff - Thanks again for not telling everyone that I am a complete looney ;)
plc - I wonder if people will look at us weird if you, me and Angel went out to dinner and everytime the waitress came over there were 6 hands on your belly!
Joey - Silly snow bugs, lol. I'm not giving up on your BFP until your BT results come back :hug:
As for the acupuncture... I can't say I totally understand how it's meant to work. Something about energy channels etc etc. The main reason I'm going is because I started seeing my fertility acupuncturist when I first came off the pill. I managed to fall pregnant on the 3rd cycle after coming off the pill, which seems to be pretty impressive. Now since my m/c I haven't seemed to have any luck falling pregnant, so I'm thinking that maybe she IS able to work some magic! Hopefully I'll be able to super-dooper-highly recommend acupuncture at the end of this month!
SandyGirl - If things seem to be falling apart in other parts of your life then I think it's a great idea for you to focus on those things for now. And hopefully that will reduce your stress levels which will hopefully help you with TTCing. Although I promise I won't say the dreaded "You just need to relax" line! :ROFL: Seriously though, I hope that this is exactly what you need. We'll miss you though!!! :hug:
Easha - I'm still liking the look of your temps! Come on high temp!!!
-
Joey-Acupunturing & taking herbs can help you get pregnant faster & help the baby implant better making the pregnancy healthier (also helps woman with M/S have sticky babies). I would def reccoment it , the needles do not hurt the just sting after theyre taken out. I'm actully going to stop seeing my acupunterist once I fall pregnant again because of the fact that its really good to do but if your acupunterist is really old or not experiansed with it its very harmful & mine is old!! like 85 years old..(he used to be a gynocologist too)...Thank you for asking about me and talking to me about your experance with TTC after a loss. I did TTC after wards and in the TWW, I'm scared but I know that there are other woman who have done the same and been able to carry full term... I just pray that it happens to me.I hope you had a good time...

Hi all,
Glad to read everyone is mostly upbeat at the mo- I swear you get more crazy as time goes by! I've been laughing out loud with all your shenanigans :-)
Jen805- thanks for the 'Hiya' I'm still lurking and always hoping for BFP's when I log on. Got everything crossed, as always xxxxxxxxxxx
afm- getting bigger by the day it seems. Bubs is apparently head down and is defo running out of space so have little feet jammed under my ribs (I'm only 5' 0 and slim so feeling slightly (a LOT!) breathless) I'm not complaining tho' and am now getting quite excited about meeting him or her in 9 week time. Don't know if it's a boy or girl...there aren't many surprises left in life so I'm happy to wait and see.
Good Luck, best wishes and mega hugs all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Sprinkling tonnes of BABYDUST for you xx
-
Temp dropped and AF arrived - dont know what else to say as I am devastated :(:(
-
Jen- LOL, Aww hunny It's okay that you feel the need not to POAS yet because of the dissapointment, But I really beleive that you had a implantion dip! I think I had mine today we will see in the morning, I will be POAS in 3 DAYS!! Hey, Jen can you wait 3 extra days and we can PEEE togeter????? LOL... Hang in there hun only a few more days, How you feeling otherwise?
Easha- Oh no!! I'm sorry she showed up darling :hug: Big big hug... I have you in my prayers for a BFP this round I know its not the same as having one now but its the best I Can do..
-
Easha - :hug: i'm so sorry. everything looked so promising. You can join in the May babies with us.
Nickster - good to see you pop in. Glad everything is going great for you. Not long now until your little "surprise" comes along. Down to single digits now. :)
Joey - glad to see you back from your holiday. Bugger for BFN.
Jen - really needed that psycho cleaning lady yesterday. It took so much effort just to clean up the house again after dragging old timbers and wall boards through it. Actually feel quite good this morning. muscles were so sore when i woke up yesterday, but they're fine today. The room is looking great (or it will be when it's finished). DH thinks he's going to wait and do the bathroom later - got news for him. It's all getting done together - can't think of anything worse then having tradesmen trek through a new clean room. and i'll need it by may (see positive thinking).
-
nickster--OMG 9 weeks left?!?! You must be so excited! :hooray: Thanks so much for popping in! It's always so good to hear how things are progressing with your pg'cy! :hug: Take care and lots of :bellyrubs:
Aww, Easha, I'm so sorry! :hug: I know how disappointed you are :( Take care of yourself, hun, again I'm just so sorry!
Babyfever--Well, I actually went to the dollar store and bought a cheapie test ( I know, smilanatu, I vowed to never buy those tests again! lol...) Anyhow, it came back BFN--but it doesn't say anywhere on the box when you're supposed to use it--ie. before/after missed AF, and there's no instructions inside! It says sensitivity 25 mIU/ml--so I'm not sure if it would be that high yet on 9DPO or not. Will wait and see how my temps go!
mollycat--Glad to hear you weren't sore this am after all your hard labor! :dance: I was a little worried that you would be! I hope you aren't doing all this work alone! Nice positive thinking!!
-
Jen- Yeah those tests are not good for early testing darling. So don't be discurraged like I said use those answer tests for your Early testing, I had a BFP at 8 DPO with FRER/answer and got BFN on a doller tree and equate. When do you plan on getting the other test??
-
Easha - So sorry to hear AF arrived, please take some peace in the fact that you are now closer to ovulation. I am praying for you and hope August is your special month:hug::hug:
I am still taking my BT every morning, staying pretty high so far. Should I keep taking it?
Krystielove - Thanks for all the support, having more tests this afternoon.:pray: everything is ok
-
Sandy - Sorry you're going to leave us, but I am glad that you were able to make a wise decision - one I should make, but won't. Take care. :hug:
Jen - the song... you have no idea how much that gets sung to me!! Sorry to hear that your DH is like mine, but glad to hear that I'm not the only one.
KL - thanks for the info on the accupuncturist. I look forward to hearing from you at the end of the month.
Babyfever - Thanks for the info about the accupuncturist. Might start to have a hunt around for one who specialises in TTC if there's such a thing.
Easha - Sorry to hear about AF :hug:
AFM - Didn't use the prog pess this morning, cause I was so confident that my BT would be -ve, but brought it to school with me JUST IN CASE. Phoned this morning to get my results and just as suspected BFN. So bring on AF. If anyone see's her, please send her to me. I want to get her going and over and done with so I can NOT tell DH when it's O time, and get this bubba growing!
Take care girls.
:grouphug:

Joey - Sorry about the BFN :( I replied to you in your other thread, but like I said, I hope AF shows for you soon. As for your DH, I know how you feel, mine is a bit like that at times too. He's getting a bit over all this TTC business and just doesn't want to talk about it unless we really have to. But at least I have finally convinced him on the "it'll happen when it happens" thing - that ain't going to happen for us!! So I try to not talk about it too much, and we just have a little bit of time each day where we do talk about it and avoid it at other times. I don't know, would that work for you maybe? I wish I had some great advice for you, but I don't unfortunately.
Easha - I'm so sorry to hear AF showed :hug:
Sandygirl - Hope the break does you good :hug: and that you come back soon with a BFP!
Jen - Cycle buddy! That chart is looking GREAT :) Fingers crossed for a BFP for you this month. Nope, no POAS for me - I did my temp just out of curiosity this morning and although I know you can't read too much into a single temp, it was at pre O levels. So as I thought, I am certain AF will arrive today or tomorrow. Oh well, it was not unexpected.
Hi to everyone else that I have missed (too many posts to go back through!!) I hope you're all well!
AFM, have been up to the clinic and had a scan done to see if the cyst I had on my ovary is gone and it is - yay! But like I said, I have no doubt that AF is about to arrive - the low temp along with a bit of a headache and a sore lower back all are telling me she will be here soon. I just wish she'd hurry up and appear :wall:
But anyway, we are on to IVF now, I'm absolutely certain. I've got all my drugs ready to go - we are doing a down reg cycle so I take the Pill when AF arrives until CD21, and on CD18 I start sniffing Synarel. Then when AF arrives at the end of that cycle, I start FSH injections and continue with them until egg collection. So it will be about 6 or 7 weeks until we have an embryo to transfer. Here's hoping everything goes to plan :pray:
I may not be around heaps during the next month as we won't be TTC, but will be lurking and hoping for many BFPs!! Good luck all :)
-
Megs Mum - Thanks for your advice. We don't even talk about it every day. I have decided to talk to you girls on BB and my BF about any questions / concerns / comments / news, and he just hears about it when he asks a question, or on a need to know (eg - I'm going for a blood test, be back in half an hour). So, he doesn't know that I got a -ve BT, I'll just tell him when he asks. It seems pretty bad, but if I tell him, he'll just say, oh well, next time, and I don't really want to hear that. So if he wants to know, he'll ask. It's a bit sad cause we get on so well in all other areas, and beleive it or not, he wants me to be UTD, he just doesn't think it should be all this hastle! This seems to be working well - except he's getting this *****s with the fact that I am on the net to BB too much and txt my BF way too much when we were on holidays. I guess he just doesn't get it. So, I'm doing most of my emailing and BB chat at school or before he gets home from work. I guess he's just jealous cause I'm spending time with others instead of him??
Oh well. Soldier on and hopefully, THIS will be our month!
:hug:
Great news that your cyst has gone. Bugger tho that AF is on her way. Just turn her away at the door and send her to me. That will keep us both happy!!
I wish you all the very very very very best for your IVF and hope every thing goes perfectly to plan. Take care!
-
Krystie--You're right, you've got DS beat for sure--you're a bigger Star Wars freak than he is! lol... Now when I tell him you actually touched Darth Vader he's going to be bugging me even more about "how long until your friend is coming?"
And, yes, you're like caffeine--you're my morning pick-me-up! ;) You and Angel together are like one of those Jolt! sodas with like triple the caffeine! Puts a smile on my face! :grouphug:
Babyfever--I have the Answer test, I'm just waiting for the best time to use it, since it's my only one. I actually do have one more of the Dollar store tests, too! :lol:
larz--Good luck on your BT's!! I'm sure they'll be great! :hug:
joey--How funny about the song! :rofl: Aww, but so sorry about your BFN :( This sounds so strange, but sending lots of AF vibes your way! :confused: Mums the word at O time! :shhh:
-
megsmum--Thanks cycle bud! :hug: Sorry to hear of impending AF! Boo witch! Very happy for you about your cyst, tho--or lack of! :cheer: That's something positive, at least! I :pray: your 6-7 weeks flies by for you until your embryo transfer, and I wish you all the best of :goodluck: Please feel free to stay here with us--you're still preparing for TTC, so don't feel unwelcome. But if it's a break you need, then I completely understand! We'll miss hearing from you, and look forward to you lurking! :hug:
-
Jen- Just remember not to drink alot the day before you go to bed to take the test with FMU. It will help the urine be more stronger. I wish you luck when you do test. :hug: I'm off to bed.
