This post could be very messy, I am way tired!
Belle, things are looking up for you! I'm still having a good feeling about you this month.........prove me right will you! I know what you mean about my body telling me, I thought of that too. Did you POAS yet? Don't keep it a secret now........
Lisa, thanks for your support, it does make me feel better to know that you guys understand. My message for your friend is coming, will do it tomorrow night. Know that I am holding your hand through the tww! It's amazing that time can go so slowly, isn't it? Counting the days with you.........10 to go!
Oh Shan, my heart goes out to you honey, I think you are amzing! You definitely deserve a break for as long as you think you need one. Hugs for you on the day of your angels edd, and in the lead up to that day.
Sarah, we loved *bunkers*, could have stayed there forever! I didn't realise you live in Busselton, I loved it there. You are lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world. DH and I would love to live in WA if it wasn't so far away.......Glad that you are still having symptoms, not because I'm cruel and nasty, but because I know that it will ease your mind somewhat! Hope Lucy is being a good girl for you! BTW have you had any more to do with the sids counselling?
Jayne, I'm sure your bump is going to be totally hot! What is it with males and apologising? My dh is great at it, but only when HE thinks he is wrong....so not often! (I shouldn't bag him, he is wonderful to me!). I hope you guys have sorted it out, it's horrible when things are tense. How exciting that your tummy is getting bigger, I'm so jealous! Of course mine is getting bigger, I just don't have a good excuse LOL!
Tanya, good luck for your ultrasound tomorrow, I'm sure it will all be great and put your mind at ease. Shall we swap? I would love to be Oing now!
Well I'm still in that club Belle talked about, no sign of O today. Getting sick of this girls......CD22 and still waiting. NO EWCM, no nothin'! I know, I know, be patient. Thanks for all your support, it's keeping me sane. Happy Wednesday everyone!
Love Sez xoxo

Oh Sez...Patience is a virtue in this whole TTC caper....good luck hun.xxx
-
Morning all,
Hope you are all well and ready to see in another day.
Well, I'm getting a touch frustrated too. I'm up to CD22 today and have had a little EWCM and LOTS of BD'ing (as if no one knew about that :p ) and I've been tempting like a woman possessed, and I still haven't had a drop then spike. What's the go there...??!!! I mean, at least last month I had a VERY distinct drop and spike...I'm thinking that perhaps I'm trying too hard...you know like information is your friend but sometimes too much information can be a bad thing...:confused: I'm starting to think that if I did nothing and we fell both times without trying then surely I should be able to do it again right?....I apologise if anybody thinks that I'm being smug or anything b/c that is certainly not my intention, I just need to get some of this out and you guys are the only ones I'm talking to about this.
Tanya - don't forget to tell us how your u/s goes, I've got my fingers crossed for you darl.
Sez - I know how you feel hun, I'm right there with you every step of the way!
*Shan* - I just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of you, hugs to you gorgeous!
Belle - what's the latest? Any news? Have you done THE test? don't keep us in suspense any longer than necessary...lol...
Kelly - stay as long as you like, you can push some of that baby dust around in here.
Janyne - can't believe you're 13 weeks already, time certainly has flown. How are you feeling?
Lisa - I hope you're feeling better and your chest infection is clearing up. Good to see you're on the countdown for the TWW, I just wish there was something I could do to speed the time up for you...
Anyway, must run, I have to do some reconciliation of credit cards *boring*. I'm sorry if I've missed anyone, but rest assured you are all in my thoughts.
Much luv & hugs,
Kate x.

Morning girls. Just a quick one. Exam was ok (I think) considering I had a head filled with cotton wool. Thank you for everyone who asked. I am getting slowly better and feeling more human each day with this flu.
Feeling very stressed about the impending arrival of AF though (around Monday I am assuming). It is mainly the count down to the unknown that worries me. DH and I had a chat the other night about what we will do if we don't get a positive with this cycle or the next. It has been decided to take a break from drugs and other interventions until January if the clomid is not effective. While this upsets me greatly I know we need the break before contemplating IVF. Consequently the emotional ride to AF is a little bumpier this month.
Sorry for the lack of personals today but I'll be back to catch up with you all soon.
-
Michelle - awwww :hug: to you my sweets. I know how hard the whole ttc caper can be. I think its a good idea that you and dh will take a break from the clomid etc.. Sometimes it can happen when we least expect it (look at Shell and Dani on LTTC). Just know that we are here for you no matter what your ttc journey brings next. I am really praying that you get your bfp so you dont have to go down the path of ivf, but if that is what is meant to be then I will be here to hold your hand through that too. I know in my heart you will be a mummy again soon and please try and stay positive you have two more cycles to go! I hope Monday comes and af is a total no show :SAAF: and she doesnt come back for another 9 months. You take care of yourself and i hope you get through this flu. Ive had it for almost two weeks and now i have chest infection. Sending loads of pg vibes your way and praying for some good news on Monday.
Sez - OMG look at my avatar - we are almost twins LOL!! What is going on with your body gf? I hope you have O'd and bd and got pg without even realising. Hang in there sweety. Its great that you have started monitoring your cycle though.
Kate - IKWYM about falling straight away the first time, so you kind of expect it to happen again. I fell on my 4th cycle the first time, now its been almost a year since I fell and nothing has happened. It is frustrating but hang in there sweety, it will come and before you know it a bfp will be staring back at you.
Shan - sweety I want to say that I am here for you always and especially over the coming weeks if you need to vent, cry or just talk. My heart goes to you, and I pray with everything that you are blessed with a sweet little bundle very soon. Are you having any other treatment to help get things moving?
Tanya - how did your ultrasound go?
Belle - where are you? I hope all is well and that af has stayed away. Thinking of you.
Keen - where are you hun? Thinking of you too and praying this cycle brings you your very own bfp.
Sarah & Kelly - how are you two up the duff'ers going?? I hope you are both more settled and relaxed now. Your bubba's are growing healthy and strong and will be in your arms before you know it.
A big hello to everyone else
me - 9 days to go but with me being so sick and the antibiotics etc im not hopeful of a bfp and have no symptoms to speak of and im not looking for any this time! Im working from home today and dh had a day off so he has been looking after me (sort of:rolleyes:).
Hope you're all having a great day
Lisa
-
Hi Girls,
Lisa, I hope that you feel better i certaintly sound as though you picked up a nasty bug! Hope that you get a BIG suprise in 9 days time!
Shan, Oh honey, i am so sorry that this is the way things have happened for you and its just not fair....I will be thinking of you in the coming weeks up to the 16th of December, the anniversary's are especially hard times and we are all here for you. Im really sorry that you got another BFN aswell, i just cant believe it - i want this so badly for you....
Sez, Very cute Av! Glad you like Busso, its a very nice place to live. I walked out the jetty the other week when my friend came over from Sydney which was nice. We usually go for breakfast every second week or so down to the restaurant down the beach at the end of the jetty - so now you know where i hang out lol. I had my name in the last sids and kids newsletter which came out prior to Fathers Day as the Busselton support person. I havent had any calls yet though, will let you know when i do! Hopefully i dont get any because that means no one has lost a baby! Any sign of O today? I wouldnt ever think of asking anyone else that lol!!!
Tanya, How did your u/s go?
Kate, I dont know anything about temping but i hope you O soon!
Michelle, Oh lovey, im glad that you had a talk with your dh but i really hope that it doesnt come to that. I sooooo want you to get pregnant right now! I am sending the witch lots of BACK OFF my friend vibes so she doesnt bother you for at least the next 9 months as you deserve to get that BFP so much. I am here if you want to talk and i am sending you lots of preggy sticky vibes!
Love Sarah xx
-
Sez - You're damn hot! Don't you love the Avatars! I love your hair colour too BTW.
Belle - Hello? You can't ignore us forever. Have you POAS yet or what? :)
Lisa - Oh yes, Alan knows that karma happens in the form of his credit card! LOL. Don't make me mad or I'll go shopping! I"m not that bad, he thinks I"m high maintenance, but what girl doesn't like nice things? I had a bad head cold while I was in the TWW and had lots of Nurofen Plus and Codral Cold & Flu tabs and it didn't do anything to me. But you have a chest infection, you want to get that cleared up or you'll end up even sicker, so get some pills girl!
Michelle - When do you get your exam results? Can't wait to hear how you went. I'm really, really hoping that Caitlyn has realised that Mummy & Daddy are getting peeved off and that she has to hurry up and find a sibling! I'm hoping that you don't have to take a break or consider IVF. :hug:
Me - The m/s is pretty much gone, thank goodness! My bb's are very, very sore though, they have only been mildly sore but now they are really sore. I'm not sure what is with that! 13.5 weeks now. It's flying passed. I'll be booking the hospital before I know it. I should get my NF scan results back next week when I visit my OB. I have just got my first two maternity tops and I have bought a b/feeding top from Ebay. I really want to wear the maternity stuff now but I should wait until I really need it otherwise by the end of the pg I'll be really sick of the same clothes. I'm fitting just fine into my jeans, trackies and everything else, so I should stick to that while I can.
Love Jayne xox

Sarah thanx for thinking of me. The appointment went fairly well. The Dr we saw (he was absolutely great) had a great talk with us, made me explain all my pregnancies & is thinking that there may be some link between James's prematurity & losing Alex but he thinks that Thomas was just really bad luck & a freaky thing to have happen. So we have to have some more blood tests (both myself & DH have to have a basic genetic work up to make sure all our of DNA when we share it is ok) then I have to have some extra BT's & he wants them to have a look in my uterus in its non-pregnant state to see if there are any deformities in the lining or in the uterus itself that may cause any troubles (or a possibility for James's premature birth). That involves a miniature telescope in through the cervix under either a local or a light general anaesthetic depending on how they choose to do it. He has also given us a guidleline as to what they would do in a next pregnancy & he is positive that we will have another live healthy baby in our arms at some stage. So that is reassuring, but at the same time he was realistic enough to let us know to always keep in the back of our minds that there is some possibility of losing another baby (not what I wanted to hear but at least he was being totally honest with us).
Anyway we have just gotten home & better go & unpack & organise some stuff. Hope all is going well with your pregnancy.
Huge hi's to everyone else.
-
Kirsty, I have PM'd you....
Belle, How are you going honey? Have you peed on me as i hold your hand yet??
Love Sarah xx
-
Hi girls,
Just a quick one...
Sarah - I just read your ticker about Lucy being a big and little sister, its very sweet and brought tears to my eyes. You are such a special woman.
Kirsty - good to hear that the dr expects you will be able to have another bub. i hope it will happen for you soon sweets. When are they doing the genetic testing?
Big hello's to all....
-
Hi all,
Lisa, I have just PMd you with a msg for Mary. We are almost twinnies, aren't we! I didn't notice until you pointed it out! If I left my hair it's natural colour, my av would probably be the same as yours! You have much better cleavage than me though LOL! Hope you had a nice day off, good day to stay inside!
Shan, thanks so much much for your message, that's very sweet of you.
Sarah, I loved walking out on the jetty! I can just picture you eating at that restaurant, what a nice thing to be able to do, I'm so jealous! I'm glad that you haven't had any calls yet, for obvious reasons. Hopefully you never get any! LOL at you asking me about O! Thanks for caring, it's nice to have have friends who don't think you're madly obsessive! No sign today, YET AGAIN! Hope today treated you and your bubba well.
Kate, I know what you mean about too much information! I'm not getting too obsessed with temping OPKs etc, I just want it to happen already! Try to relax a little, and enjoy this exciting time of ttc!!!!!!
Belle, where the hell are you?! Maybe you had a sick day coz you had really bad m/s.......or maybe you're just hiding a secret from us........I really hope it's something like that! I think you still have a free hand, I'll hold the other hand while you wait for the two lines to come up! Hopefully some of Sarah's baby dust will rub off on both of us!
Kirsty, your appt sounds like it went very well. Such positive feedback! You must be feeling quite good about things now. Good luck with all your blood work etc, please let us know how you go. How did you find your Dr?
Michelle, I'm just going to say :crossfingers: and everything else crossed for you sweetie! (Glad that your exam went well and that you are feeling better).
Jayne, I think I look pretty damn good too, thanks! So glad the m/s fairy has left the building for you. I know the prospect of maternity clothes is exciting, but hold off as long as you can. BTW, when do you book in to your hosp? We have to book in almost before you get a BFP here!
I'm sure I've forgotten someone in there, but I think that's about long enough for me today! SORRY! Still no O, but at least my CM turned watery today, instead of that creamy stuff I've been getting for days and days now. And I think I had some O pain today. Question: does anyone get O pain that makes them feel nauseous, and a bit crampy like af pain? Mine is normally very localised sharp stabbing pain, but that's on my left. Today this funny pain was on my right. (When I say pain, I think I really mean discomfort IYKWIM). TIA!
Bring on some more :bfp: s
Love Sez xoxo

Hi,
I just wanted to jump in after lurking for so long and say Hi!
Im Kellie, Mum to Callum (28/10/03) and partner to Matt. We have three angel babies that are deeply missed here on earth.
We have been serious TTC since Jan of this year, but let no luck. :crying:
I have been on 100 mg of clomid since May and this was my last cycle on it. I think I need a little break :). AF maybe showing her ugly head any day now, but Im just hoping that she doesn't come.
Looking forward to getting to know you all.
Kell

Hello ladies!
I'm so sorry I went MIA but work has been just crazy and doesn't look like letting up anytime soon. So it's just a quickie from me today.
AF arrived in full force yesterday afternoon, clots and all :doh: I'm happy that she finally arrived after a few days of threatening, so now we can get on with the next cycle...but I'm a little worried that my LP was only 11 days... :confused:
Anyway, I'll try and get back on later to do personals but I've gotta get stuck into work right now :boohoo:
Love & babydust to all!
Belle
-xxxooo-

Hi girls... Sorry I didn't get on yesterday to let you know how all went. I have been a busy bee!!
The U/S was fine... everything looks ready and rearing to go!! I have a nice 18.8mm follie in my left ovary, shame I am going to let it go to waste :( (I am tempted to just go for it!!) I have started my diet again, so I will be ready next cycle.
Kirsty... when are you going to get the u/s and b/t's done? Did he say when you would be ready to ttc again? Did you tell him you are ready ;)
Kell, Welcome!! I hope your stay in this thread is a short one!!
Sez... yay for some fertile CM!! Go get 'em girl ;) (Nice av too)
Jayne, so glad the m/s has disappeared! Horrid thing it is! G/L for getting you n/t results (I am sure they will be fine )
Lisa, I hope you have a sticky bean in there, I hope you are feeling better!
Michelle, (((hugs))) I have my fingers and toes crssed for a BFP this month!! Good Luck!
Kate, any sign of O yet... I hope it shows up and there are planty of little swimmers there to greet it :)
Belle, I am soooo sorry AF arrived!! (((hugs)))
I coloured Alecia's hair last night. I hope she doesn't get into trouble at school. It is black with red underneath... just like she wanted it. I ususally don't let her do these things, but she is getting older now... nearly 14!! *sigh*
Talk soon
Tanya

Morning all,
Hope you are all well. For those of us in Sydney - nice weather if you're a duck!!! I got absolutely soaked at the train station this morning and the wind was so hard it actually bent my umbrella....anyway....shouldn't complain, we need the rain.
Well, I'm getting increasingly frustrated with this cycle. still getting little bits of EWCM (WTF?) and I'm up to CD23, temps have been hovering between 36.2 and 36.3 for the last 5 days...(rant: just bloodywell drop or spike will you??!!!), still BD'ing like randy rabbits...lol...just in case, and am still taking asprin...just in case....but have been extremely moody, picking fights with hubby and bless him, he hasn't been biting....
Sorry for the lack of personals this morning, but I'm thinking of you all. Must run off and attend to the thousands of emails.
Much luve & hugs,
Kate x.
-
For those that have asked we still have a 10-12 week wait ahead of us before we can actively start TTC again but that is ok by both of us. Gives me a chance to go back to WW & lose some weight & also gets us past November (as there is no hope in hell that I am going to be trying in Nov, we conceived both our boys who are now angels in Nov so not going to go through another Nov conception ever again!!).
I'm off for the bt's Monday morning ~ have to fast for a couple of them & I have to work tomorrow so that puts that out, then have to go & see my OB in about 3wks (it will take that long for his letter to reach them in regards to the recommendation to have a look inside my uterus) & make a time from there for that. But not too stressed about it coz as I said we've got to wait about 3mths anyways so lots of time to get it done in there somewhere before we start.
Huge hi's to all will catch up properly soon I promise.
-
Hey all, Just popping in to say a quick hello it has been some time since i dropped in to visit. Have had so much going on with getting reports done for funding. But it is all over now and We are just waiting for the answers. Samual has been very patient thru all his assessments so i have to say I am very proud of him.
Sending you all some HUGE BIG BABY DUST Sprinkles for your up coming cycles and Pray that I see 99.9% of you over in the PAML in the next couple of weeks.
Love and blessings to you all
Nola & Treacle.
ps. Kazz sends her love to you all, she has been having some major computer problems but is hoping to be back on line this avo or Monday. I managed to catch up with her today for a cuppa.
-
Hello, where is everyone today?
Belle, I'm so sorry af arrived properly, I hope she doesn't make you suffer too much. Big :hug: for you. I'm glad you can be positive and move right along to the next cycle. You sound like me now! I'm not sure, but I think my last lp was only 11 days too! I have heard though that as long as it's 10 days or over that's fine. and I think they say to class the day that af arrives in full force CD1, not the spotting days. Maybe that will lengthen your LP? Whatever it is, don't worry about it, you guys will pg very soon, I'm sure!
Tanya, LOVE your ticker! I think that is way cool! Can't wait to see it looking very pg and BLUE! Won't be long now........
Kate, I'm with you on being frustrated this cycle! I am CD 24 and my temps for the last five days have been between 35.8 and 36.05. Go figure! I am trying to be patient, but it is difficult. I am also a grumpy guts ATM. So I definitely understand where you're coming from!
Kirsty, I'm sure the next 10-12 weeks will fly by for you. Good luck with all your tests, and with WW. It really works doesn't it! I sould have gone back to lose my 'pg' weight but it's now too late. Oops! Never mind, I only wanted to lose a few kilos......:)
Thanks for dropping in Nola, and spreading your babydust! I'm glad Samuel has been so good, and I really hope you get the funding you deserve.
Sarah, hope you are going well today, thinking of you......
Hi to everyone else. I am so sick of this cycle. CD24 and still waiting. WTF????? Even the cycle I fell pg I Od on day 25, and I thought that was a long cycle! Guess I was wrong. Oh well, I guess I'll just go and find some choc to make myself feel better!
Love to all, Sez xoxo
-
Hello my sweets,
Sez - did you find some chocolate? I hope this cycle of your sorts itself out so you can get on with serious ttc. All you can do is keep monitoring and hope your body does what it's meant to. Do you use a digital bbt? Im thinking I might start charting to but im worried that it might do my head in even more.
Belle - oh hun that af is such a witch sometimes. Hope she is being kind to you though. Wishing a bfp for you at the end of this new cycle.
Nola - thanks for dropping in sweets. Hope all goes well with the funding etc.. my goodness you must have a really nice baby bump now! So happy things are going well for you. I think you need to dump another truckload of baby dust in here...we've had a couple of grads but need more!
Kirsty - best of luck with the testing. Sounds like you will be ready to try and make a baby at christmas time. That would be lovely :)
Tanya - so glad all went well at the u/s, hope that's given you some peace of mind. So you really 'not' going to try til next cycle?
Kate - I saw the news this morning, you guys sure have had some rough weather, hope you made it back home in a dry state. You and Sez are having some weird goings on in your cycles - I hope it all leads to a bfp for you both:pray:
Kell - welcome to our little (big) group. I hope your new ttc journey ends very soon with a nice bfp. Look forward to chatting with you.
Michelle - how are you going sweets? I hope your feeling better from the flu, and I hope your feeling more positive about ttc. Im :pray: my heart out that you get your bfp on Monday (im not stalking you I swear LOL - I just rememberd that you were due for testing early next week).
Sarah and Kelly - hope you two are doing well and taking extra special care of your little bubba's.
A big hello to everyone elese, and wishing you all a bfp.
Me - mmmmm well still sick from the flu but I have now lost my voice - yep! I cant speak. DH has been great but im sure he is secrectly wrapt that i cant talk :rolleyes: . Well I was having a bit of a coughing fit and in the middle of it - my stomach turned inside out and I started to throw up (sorry TMI) and I was running to the loo and while ive got a mouthful of chuck dh is running around after me saying are you pg? are you pg? I wanted to punch him in the head! Poor thing he gets excited at any tiny prospect. I had to tell him that no Im not pg and even if I was its way too early for chucking. It happened once more but it seems to have settled now. I just had some cammomile tea and im off to the dr's tomorrow cause it seems these antibiotics have done nothing to help I just want to feel human again
As for ttc - im in the tww now, due for testing next weekend.
Hope you all have a great night,
Lisa
-
I am such a bad girl, I forgot to welcome our newbie, Kellie! Hi Kellie, I'm sure you'll love it in here, and find lots of support! I also hope that you don't have to stay for too long...........;)
Lisa, I do use a digital BBT thermometer. I got it from lullaby conceptions, and I love it! It registers my temp sooo quickly, and beeps to wake me up when I've fallen asleep with it in my mouth (I temp at 5.30am!), but i think alot of them do that. Maybe you chucked cos of the antibiotics? Isn't your dh cute, getting excited because you're throwing up!!!! I know my dh would be not so secretly rapt if I lost my voice! I talk as much as I type on here! IYKWIM Poor man :p I hope you are feeling human again ASAP!
-
Thanks Sez - i'll jump onto lullaby and have a look - but do I have to get up that early to temp? Me thinks if you say yes then temping is not a good idea. I cant get up that early! LOL at your dh being rapt if you lost your voice. Im sure my dh is counting his lucky stars!
Where is everyone else today??
-
I know, where is everyone? We need a life Lisa.....JK!
No you don't have to get up that early to temp, but you do have to do it at the same time every day (or pretty close) and it has to be the first thing you do. I do it before I even open my eyes. You definitely have to do it before you get up, and some say not to talk or anything before you temp. And I think it's ideal to have had three consecutive hours of sleep before temping (no prob for me, I'd have thirty if I could!). Fertility friend has been so helpful for me, I am by no means an expert, but I have learnt alot on that website. Sing out if you have any other questions.
Sez xoxo

Hello girls,
Sorry i was mia yesterday, was busy rushing around like a madwoman!!
Lisa, Thanks for your comment about my ticker - i am bummed because i cant even see it - whats up with that??? Can anyone help me out? I hope that you feel better that is one nasty bug youve got and thanks for the description of your tummy turning inside out its filling my head now lol. How cute was your DH getting excited about you maybe having ms!!
Sez, Whats going on chicken - you must be about to O any second....Long cycles are such a bummer hey, i used to feel like everyone else was always catching me iykwim. Hope you are doing well and that you decide to go for it (ttc) soon!
Kellie, Welcome to the group, i am so sorry to hear about your 3 angels and that you havent had any success YET with Clomid. Hopefully this is the cycle and you wont have to take a break. Wishing you BOL!
Belle, I am so sorry that AF arrived for you, i was sure it was your month. How are you feeling honey? I will be holding your hand when you get your BFP next month dont worry!
Kirsty, Wow 10-12 weeks is another long wait for you, but i can totally understand why you dont want to conceive another baby in November - i feel exactly the same as that is Katelyn's time. Hoping that the time flies and you get a nice christmas pressie in the form of a sticky BFP.
Tanya, thats great news on the ultrasound and i love your ticker comment!
Michelle, How are you doing matey? Not long to go for you now i am thinking of you and sending you heaps and heaps of positive vibes!
Love Sarah xx
-
Thanks for all the positives girls but I think they are without cause this month. AF has started to rear her ugly head and will be here in force soon. So ... last clomid cycle is just about to start and I am resigned to it not working too. I may be MIA for a little while trying to re-group and focus on this last chance (and trying to get positive enough to TTC at all).
Thank you for being here. I just feel so very alone in this journey some times and I am so scared that Caitlin is going to be my only baby. The not doing anything else until next year is also making me so sad. A baby just seems like it is getting further and further from my reach.
-
Awww Michelle. I am so sorry that you are heading for af afain and feeling so down. Take time for yourself now and maybe get some relaxation in over the coming months, sometimes when we are totally relaxed and ignorant of ttc a miracle can happen. Im thinking of you and hope to see you around at least a little. Take care my sweet friend and know that Im praying you get a bfp soon. Feel free to pm or email me if you ever need to talk. I know you will have another baby sweety and I hope it comes soon
Loads of hugs to you,
Lisa

Hey Ladies,
Just popping in here to sprinkle some baby dust around *sprinkle sprinkle sprinkle*
I'm in la la land as my gf (a bb addict named Caddie) delivered her beautiful baby girl RUBY GRACE today. I"m off to visit them tomorrow as I'm on a special mission from Caddie to bring her some Maccas cheeseburgers! LOL.
I'm 14w on Sunday, the start of the SECOND trimester!
I'm really thinking of you ladies and I'm always lurking even if I"m not posting, sometimes I feel a bit odd, I don't want you girls to feel uncomfortable at all, I hope I never make you feel that way.
Lets hope some serious lovin' takes place this weekend!!!
Love Jayne
-
Jayne, I can only speak for myself, but you never make me feel uncomfortable, quite the opposite. You always make me laugh, which is so great, and it's so nice to see someone who is PAML doing so well, it's very encouraging! Don't go away just yet! Yay for the second trimester! Good on you :)
Michelle, :hug: for you. I'm so sorry that af has arrived. I understand that the break seems so long for you, but it will go quickly enough, and will probably be a good opportunity for you to have a rest. And get up to all sorts of naughty things that you can't do when pg! MIA for awhile is completely understandable, but please let us know how you're going from time to time. And you've still got one month on clomid, it ain't over til it's over...............I'm holding out hope for you! I know you're going to have another baby.
Sarah, I know what you mean about everyone catching up to you! I thought Belle and I might be cycle buddies, we should have switched, I'm the one who wants af to come! Still no sign of O, but I really feel like my body is gearing up for it, and has been for the last week IYKWIM? I'm feeling more relaxed about it today (you'll see why later in my post....)
Lisa, I hope you have a great weekend (despite this freezing weather)! I wonder if you'll have any implantation signs? Don't keep it a secret if you do! I hope you're feeling so much better now. Did you go to the Dr yesterday?
Belle, thinking of you :hug: . I hope you and your dh have a lovely weekend together. Looking forward to chatting next week.
Tanya, are you sure you're not going to just go for it?!!! Very tempting isn't it!
Hi Kell, how's it going down in Portland? I know there's a lot of us, but if you keep visiting you will get to know everyone, I promise! It is a bit daunting at first. Where are you in your cycle/ttc efforts? Are you another in the tww?
Kate, thinking of you. I hope you're temps are doing something good for you ie dropping or spiking! Keep up the BD just in case!
Well, I have a sort of confession to make, I feel a need to be honest here. Dh (poor man) and I hadn't DTD since the mc (8 weeks ago) until last night!!!!! I know, I know, I'm a bad wife, but for the first month or so I just couldn't even contemplate it, and then I was too scared I was going to get pg (how weird does that sound in here!!!) so there was other business going on but no BD. I don't know why I waited so long now, I'm absolutely glowing today, but it was well worth the wait! (Sorry if TMI) So now, i don't know whether I really want to O now, in case I get pg, or if I want it to hold off a couple of days. Mind you, I have a feeling we're just going to be going for it anyway. So all in all I feel much more relaxed about my cycle (today anyway!) if that makes any sense at all. Like I said to Sarah, I feel like my body has been gearing up for O for the last week or so, it just hasn't happened yet. BTW if anyone is any good at checking out charts, would you mind looking at mine, and telling me what you think is going on? It's a crazy one! Thank you!
Cheers everyone,
Love Sez xoxo
ETA I have never seen ferning on my maybe baby like i have today! It's unreal!

Sez, it is hard to say what is going on with your chart. I think you reall need to wait a couple of days to see. It looks like you are gearing up for O or have. But if you get another high temp tomorrow FF may give you a coverline... all I can suggest is wait and see.
As for no BDing, sounds reasonable to me!! Sometimes it truely is difficult to do, I ended up having to force myself to BD after giving birth to Violet and nearly vomited!! And it had been at least a couple of months!! (I know a m/c is different tho :( )
Jayne, I have no qualms with you pg girls dropping in. Congras to Caddie, it is always wonderful to hear about a birth :D She is only tiny too... awwwwwwwwwwww... Cute!!
I think it may be O day today or tomorrow... I am finding it hard to resist the urge to copulate...lol. I need to wait until next month tho. I have to continually remind myself of why we chose to have a 4th!!

Hey Sez, i'm no expert, but i've had a look at your chart. My first thought was that you O'd on CD14 with your F and temp dip and spike. However if you are now getting ferns again, maybe O was delayed. I try not to read to much into charts. Danni over in LTTTC has just got a BFP recently and her chart was terrible....Good luck hun, i hope others can give you more of an idea...
Hi to everyone else..i'm still here, lurking, but just not posting as much. I'm gunna be away for a few days so i should be back next week, unless I can jump on a computer in Melbourne...xxx

Oh yeah, Michell, I am sorry to hear that AF is on her way :( :hug: I am truely heart broken for you!!

Okay News Flash.........
My two OPKs have just come up with the darkest, fattest second lines I've ever seen, inside of one minute! I will have to re-test later, but I think this is O time girls!
Do we DTD again? :dunno: (Sorry, don't expect anyone to actually answer that!)
Tanya, keep your legs crossed missy! Thanks for the insight on my chart. I'm thinking tomorrow may be the day now. I'll just have to wait and see! You poor thing nearly vomiting after BDing! I did have a little chuckle to myself, sorry! Clearly I've never had a child.........
Thanks to you too Shan, glad you are still lurking around us. We are always thinking of you. My O is always delayed! I would be overjoyed to O on CD14, but I don't think it's likely as I've never Od before CD22! Wasn't Danni's chart just hideous? It just goes to show, doesn't it! Are you coming to Melb to check out where to live?

Hi Everyone,
I hope all is well - it took me a little while to catch up. I had a pretty crazy week at work so couldn't post but am pleased to say that I'm now on holidays!!! I'm not going back to work until Wendesday, September 20 - a whole week and a half. And my god do I need it right now!!!!
Sorry for the lack of personals but I've just had the WORST night of my entire life (well maybe not quite as bad as the night after I found out I'd lost my little angel and had the D&C but VERY close to that). I haven't slept a wink and managed to pick up the worst gastro bug I've ever had (and unfortunately, I've had a few). I'm soo sorry if this is tmi but the diarrhoea and stomach cramps were just the worst I could ever imagine! Worst of all, I fainted and scared DH to death. Got the sweats really, really bad and then started seeing blood in the loo. I just burst into tears thinking that I was loosing the baby but when I wiped, there wasn't anything there - turns out, it's coming from my bum!! (again so sorry - tmi) Now I'm freaking out and feel like crap (literally - he he). God, I can't believe I'm telling you all this - sorry - how embarrassing if I even end up meeting any of you! I hope no-one I know is reading this!!!
Anyway if I wasn't already worried enough, this has tipped me over the edge. I was pretty bad last night and I just don't know how my little baby will get through it all. The thing that worries me the most is the high temperatures and sweats that I was getting - and the blood!!! I was completely 'out of it' for a while there. :crying:
I don't know if anyone knows anything about all of this????? I just can't cope with it all and desperately want to go and hide under a big rock. Luckily I have the greatest Mum in the world and she's on her way over here as DH had to go off to uni (he's doing his MBA). I think she's going to take me back to her place for the day and I'm going to try and call my GP to put my mind at ease.
Sorry guys, just had to get all that out.
Sez honey - it's sounding so great for you!!! If you're ready then I say 'GO FOR IT', I'm sure all will be fine!! They do say the best time to fall is when you're not really trying, so I say just enjoy the bd'ing and let nature do it's thing!!!
Michelle - I'm soo sorry af arrive. Big hugs for you :hug:. Take care!
Kelly xx

I Just popped on quickly and Sez, you go get that man!!! Get him for the next 3 nights. Ovulation can be anywhere from 24-48 hours from a bold +ve on the OPK!!! Grab him while you're knickers are HOTTTT!!!! LOL.
-
Yay for +++ OPK's :D I think you should DTD tonight and tomorrow and you should be right Sez ;)
Kell, so sorry to hear you have been so ill!! Yuck! SOunds like you need to get in bed and stay there!!

Okay gals, I am officially in the tww! :pray:
I'd forgotten how bad it is! Dh and I DTD about 30 mins ago, and already I'm stressing! We didn't discuss it, but I think it's pretty clear that we are ttc again. I haven't told him that I'm Oing, cos I don't want to get his hopes up IYKWIM? Jayne, as far as I know, you will O anywhere between 12-36 hours after a + OPK? That's what I heard anyway. I re-tested this afternoon and got two more BFPs, but after testing earlier tonight the line is starting to fade already. It is still a + but not as dark. My O pains left the building this afternoon, so I have a 'gut' feeling that I Od today. Let's hope so ladies! And let's also hope that my LP is long enough for implantation this month. TBH I really don't know when af is due, so I think I'll test in about 10 days. It's just plain silly to think that I could wait 14 days, even though I know I should. I am such a POAS addict!
Jayne, you are such a crack up! I really hope my knickers were sufficiently HOTTTT! Dh is on call this week, thank god he didn't get a call-out tonight!
Tanya, how are you managing? Thanks for the encouragement!
Kelly, please go and get yourself checked out. It's very important not to get dehydrated. At least get some hydralyte or gastrolyte from the chemist. I hope you are feeling so much better tonight. BTW, please don't be embarrased, this is what we're all here for. :hug: for you.
Big hi to everyone else! Hope you're having fabbo weekends! Let's bring on some more BFPs this week!
Love Sez xoxo

Sez - Please DTD again tomorrow PLEASE! You never know if your little eggy took the scenic route or the express lane down the tube, so do it again tomorrow just to top up the supply of wrigglies in your tummy! LMAO!
I want you to post when you DTD again tomorrow and if you only did it 30 mins ago why aren't you still in bed with a pillow under your backside to send the wrigglies in the right direction??????? :doh:
I'm sorry, I'm hooting with laughter while posting!!!!!!!

Hi Girls,
I have not popped in for a few days and had heaps to catch up on.
Forgive me for not doing personals, but I feel like I am still getting to know you all and don't want to sound like I don't know what I am talking about.
I don't know many of your abreviations so I hope this is not too painful to read!
My second miscarriage was over a month ago now, and at the time I kept telling my doctor that I had not bled as much as I would have expected. This month I O'ed right when I thought that I would, and I still think that I had an implantation bleed, but my period (AF?) has now started, except that it is way heavier that usual, and started with heaps of OLD BLOOD. I knew it! I said to my husband at the time that I was surprised that my Dr did not suggest an U/S. I feel like she has not taken as good care of me as she could have (I accept that it probably would not have made much of a difference, but I would not have gotten my hopes up).
Any way I feel pretty sorry for myself, and fairly stupid for feeling that way.
Paige.

Good morning!
Well, I'm just hoping that my little eggie decided to leave it's nest at all! Opks are fading again this morning (still definitely there, but not as dark as control, so therefore not +) but still no temp shift! I don't know what the hell is going on with my chart! I need Lisa (Mumintaz) back to keep me grounded about O! And I've woken up feeling dreadful today so I'm not sure there's going to be any bd action tonight. Dh is working all weekend (can't you tell, I've been on here so much) so we have to grab what chances we can.
BTW Jayne, I had a pillow under my bum for about 15 mins, then I got bored, cos Dh had gone back to watch the rest of the footy so I got up again! 15 minds should be long enough, yeah? There was hardly any leakage (SORRY!) so I think I should be right LOL! You might have been hooting, I was absolutely ROFLMAO when I read your post! Thank you for not letting me get tooooo serious about all this!
On a lighter note, I have a very dear friend (:hug: to you too sweets!) who I have told about this website, and I have just busted her posting in another thread! Welcome! Our ttc cricumstances are very different so we probably won't be posting in the same threads (unless we become belly buddies :pray: ) but I'm so glad she got up the courage to post cos I think she'll find the support fantastic. I'm not going to tell her that I've found her, I'm just going to wait and see if she finds me here! When you do Lou, don't worry, what is said on BB stays on BB! (You know, like fishing trip etc!).
Enjoy your Sunday's girls, I will keep you posted.
Love Sez xoxo

Sorry Paige, I just missed you. First of all, don't feel stupid for feeling sorry for yourself. You are definitely allowed some self-pity, especially when af has arrived! I had hardly any bleeding after my d&c, but my next period was quite normal, so I don't think I can really help you. I know it won't help much now, but I have been told by my Ob and others, that it's sometimes best to have one af before ttc again. So try to look on the bright(?!) side, if you can. (I don't think I could!)
Sorry to give you so much to catch up on, I think that's mostly me obsessing about Oing and BDing! You will get to know us all, just keep posting and you'll get there. If you want to know any abbreviations ask away, or there is a thread that contains most of them in the Introduce Yourself forum. Good luck!
:hug: for you on af arriving, I hope this is it for another 10 months for you!

Found you!:p
same goes we'll just have a chuckle when we see each other. You know me too well anyway so i have nothing to hide from you.
Love you Sez xx
