Possum magic- That sounds promising. Keeping FX for you. My AF is due Tuesday, and I am having similar cramping to yours, so I'm also feeling paranoid every time I go in case it's early.... It's so hard to tell when pg and AF symptoms feel so similar!
Possum - hating this tww!!! Wow cd 29 go girl, when are you going to test?
Minnie - nothing happening except some sore nipples! tee heeee just what you were wanting to hear first thing Sunday morning!
Clairesmummy- I have been out working my horse so I have decided that i am going to continue as normal until I get a bfp then i might stop...I just love it too much!
Helo everyone else!
possum - yes its too full on! i feel bad feeling like that and we are only just dtd to fall pregnant, its quite sad when u think about it haha!
hi ladies, first a HUGE congrats to those who have BFP!!
Im new to this and not 100% sure if im in the right thread. Im 25, hubbies 24 and we lost our twins in september. I have PCOS and so AF has been away since i fell pg with the twins...until last night. Iv lost 10-15kg since end of september and am on womens balance herbs and after taking them for a week and a half AF has arrived. So i guess we r at the very beginning of ttc all over again. Hoping BFP before the end of 2011, so hope 2011 is all our year.
I have a gyno/obs appintment wednesday as i was going to go on clomid but im assuming as AF has returned i dont need it?? Any advice would be appriciated on Clomid as I dont know much.
Thanks
Thanks Clairesmummy and Minnie ~ I will miss you guys as well but I'll probably see you round in some of the other threads. Hopefully we will all be in the PG threads together very soon. Goodluck to you both, my fingers are crossed tight for you both and I thank you again for all your very kind support and care. Would not have got through without you xoxo. Yeh I just feel that there are a lot of BFP's in here pretty often and Im very happy for those people - extremely happy for them but unfortunately for us - its going to be pretty hard and I think a bit of a long road yet. Ive been quite down lately too because of it all and lack of money to do IVF. But Ill never give up all hope. Thanks again ladies
To the newbies ~ I'm so sorry you had to come into this thread. I'm sure you will find the support in here amazing and I hope you get healthy BFP's very very soon, all the best, FX'd for you.
Will be thinking of you all and fingers are crossed tight.:grouphug::bluedust::stickyvibesgirl:
Loops you are very welcome. Sending you out lots of baby dust hun, good luck.
AFM~ I as well am signing out of here for awhile as like loops has said it's getting to hard to see everyone come and go and still be sitting in the same place as happy as I am to hear you all get your BFPs it's still hard to never be able to get mine. It takes to much to try to keep putting out positive vibes when all I wanna do is give up and let things be. It's time for me to start focusing on other things in my life now not just the unsuccessful cycles we are having year after year. I wish you all the very best with all your TTC journies and hope you all get your Xmas and New year BFPs. Take care all.
And Joeve~ Half yah luck with being able to ride we can't do any riding here as it's raining here again....I'm over the bloody rain. LOL....good luck hun.
Hey girls
Clairesmummy and Loops, Sorry to see you girls leave the group :( really do hope you get your BFP soon xoxo
Shan85, Welcome and I really hope your stay is short, so sorry for your loss :( xoxo
Big hellos to everyone and lots of :bluedust: and :stickyvibesgirl:
I've been in quite a bit of pain the past few days, my neck and back are out really bad, and can't afford to even see a doctor or chiro... so gotta wait until the new year but DF got me some great painkillers which seem to be working but they make me very drowsy...also my lovely little man broke my glasses so not been on the computer much...
I'm up to CD7... AF was only here for 3 days and 1 day of very light spotting so wasn't to bad... so now just waiting for O and hoping to catch the egg! Its getting closer to my sisters due dates and if I aren't pregnant by the time their babies come I dont think I'm going to be real happy as much as I will be for them... :( that sounds so bad as well but I guess I was meant to be due after them and not now :(
I guess i better be off..need to have a rest on the couch... dam these pills lol!
take care everyone xoxox
ill be the first one to put up my hand and say my god this whole ttc thing gets me down alot! Iv got a friend who is having twins and was about 4 weeks behind me. Now i get updates on facebook and pictures of her growing belly when mines not anymore :( i use to look at pregnent women in the shops or mums with twin prams and be so happy, now i feel horrible and want to just run past them. Going into kmart this time of year and how they have revamped it, you have to go past toys and baby supplies to get to shoes and maternity wear is right next to plus sizes (on a good note im no longer going to plus size clothes :D)
I guess there is only so much we can go through, the continued dissappointment of BFN all the bloody time doesnt help. I lost the plot with DH the other day and screamed "u dont know how it feels, i dont even feel like a women anymore". I felt so bad afterwards but thats how i feel (later realised it was hormones as AF came a day later).
I truly hope you ladies have success for when the time comes and come visit us often. Sending lots of love from frankston.
MummyDeb- I TOTALLY understand ur pain!! Im awaiting my 2nd knee op and am constintly dopped up to my eyeballs on my Norspan patch. Iv tried endone, panadine fort, oxycontin (made me chuck with the duromine) and have finally found the PAIN PATCH :D only issue like all narcotics is falling asleep ALL THE TIME!! (even during nursing lab) Hope everyone has a great day :)
hi everyone,
gosh its quiet in here
joeve: im stalking you
possum magic: any news ? i have everything crossed its a bfp for you
shan: so sorry to hear of the loss of your twins, do you mind me asking how far along were you ? i also have pcos, were you taking metformin in the pregnancy and did you need clomid to fall pregnant in the first place ? don't answer if you don't want to :-) im in the middle of a clomid cycle now, it has worked for my DD and DS but i have also had 3 "natural" pregnancies that ended in m/c
clairesmummy & Loops: i understand that it is hard to be in here when you are needing more than "natural" conception, big hugs to you both and i wish you well on your journey's from here, we will keep in touch ;-)
afm: day 14 and nothing much to report, opt's still negative but hopefully will be positive by the weekend, we have started the 2nd daily dtd so hopefully will be covered when it eventually happens !
blah blah blah - that pretty much sums me up!
Shan85 - totoally sucks huh. Hugs to you. I have been losing it a bit lately - think I am finally getting some hormonal side effects from the Clomid.
Nothing I can't handle - I think it just exaserbates (sp?) the mood you are in already & if that's a ****ty mood then eek ;)
Good luck to those waiting to O & for those who may be in the running for a BFP!!
Clairesmummy - sorry to see you leave the thread but will keep an eye out for you around the threads - all the best "darl" ;)
Hi to everyone else x
Shan85: i can only imagine the sadness of losing twins but IKWYM about how hard it is to watch people with growing bellies who were expecting close in time to you. My best friend is expecting 4 weeks before I was meant to be and others have also had babies around the time I was due to have had a baby earlier this year. It's very hard. It has often got me feeling down.
Mummytotwo: Grrr, hormones, don't they make you nuts? I hate feeling hormonal.
Minniemouse: Hope you are in business soon with a positive OPK!
MummyDeb: hope you are feeling better soon and in good shape to catch the egg!
Clairesmummy: I hope that you are coming to the end of a long journey and will get a sticky BFP soon. WIll keep an eye out for you.
Alish: Yeah, i wish TTC BD could be as nice as regular BD but it's hard when you can't be as spontaneous and when the guys can feel some 'performance pressure'!
Joeve: How's it going? CD????
CK08: Any luck? I hope horrid AF does NOT visit you today.
AFM: So, I had one horrible day of PMS-like irritability last Wednesday where i was ready to bite the heads off everybody. It passed but have had lots of cramping and sore boobs. But it just felt like AF mostly and I promised myself I wouldn't test again until AF was late. Which it was. So today (CD 32) I tested again. And....
:bfp:
So, here I am, about to ride the roller coaster again. I'm praying it's third time lucky. Going to see my OB tomorrow to start medication (Clexane and progesterone) as the OB thinks my two losses might be due to a blood clotting problem (i've also been on aspirin while trying).
I will stay in touch and let you know how it goes. It is of course such early days that it feels uncomfortable to even say that I'm going to have a baby at the end of this. But... it's a good start!
I'll be stalking for more BFPs (Hope i start a trend!)
hi Minniemouse, I went for my 20 week scan and no heartbeats, They think that due to our "wacked out hormones" from the PCOS that there is a slightly higher risk of M/C. I was on no treatment as metformin would be useless as im a type 1 diabetic already. I didnt have much bleeding at all and havent had AF around since may. Just got it again for the 1st time saturday so i guess my weight loss has helped. I really dont mind too much talking about my M/C with you ladies coz i guess we have all been there (or otherwise we wouldnt be in this thread). So what now for me?? Iv lost 10kg since september 24th (date our babies died) and 10cm off my tummy. Iv got an appointment on the 10th Jan with my gyno/ob but will go to the gp and see about bloods to see if im ovulating.
I KNOW for a fact id be in a white straight jacket if it wernt for DH and both our families! My friends havent really been through the heart ache of loosing a bub but they have been there to listen to me venting. Lastly my gyno is gunna see about me going on clomid in the new year. Glad it worked for u and fingers crossed.
A huge congrats to your BFP possum!!
possum magic thats fantastic news :dance::clap::happyforyou::stickyvibesgirl::sticky vibesboy: congrats to you hun ! i'll keep everything crossed for you, i'll be interested to hear how you go with the medication cause i will be having that too if i get that bfp ! can i ask what dose of aspirin have you been having ? (i have been thinking about doing that myself)
OMG Possum, congrats sweety, that is wonderful news sending you heaps of sticky vibes xoxox
Possum!!!!!!!!:happyforyou: how funny about PMS crankiness that sums me up today I am FERAL!!!!!!!!!
Minniemouse - thanks for stalking me I feel special!
Nothing happening girls just waiting.....
Possum - FAN-bl00dy-TASTIC news!!!!!!! Well done on your BFP hun. Hope the meds & the next 8 or so months turn out beautifully :) :)
As for the rest of you lovely ladies - bbl for persies xxxx
Thanks ladies!
Joeve: I hope you go from ferral to fertile (i.e a BFP)!
Iona Macca: Thanks hun!
Minnie: I'm on low dose aspirin (like the oldies take). The brand I use is Cartia 100mg (it's coated so it doesn't upset your tummy). My OB told me to take it while TTC then to add Clexane (blood thinner) when i get a BFP (around 4wks pg).
Shan85: My heart goes out to you over the loss of your precious babies. I hope your angels have an earth sibling soon.
Mummytotwo: Thanks so much : )
Shan85- So sorry for your loss. I lost one and can't imagine losing two. Same thing, went in for my u/s and no heartbeat, such a shock. My heart goes out to you. And yes, seeing all those pg ladies around the stores, especially now at Christmas time, is really a downer.
possum magic- I thought so! Congrats!
AFM- AF showed up yesterday, so I'm back to square one. It was good and bad timing, as we had our holiday party yesterday and so I knew I could have some wine, but a friend brought her 1 week old baby with her and I had to try so hard to look happy for her and not jealous.
I'm sad that I don't have my BFP for Christmas. I would have been 5 months right now and I'm starting all over again. I would have had my baby in May, which would have been perfect since I'm a teacher, and now the soonest possible will be end of September, which is worse timing for work but as I have learned you can't really plan these things out the way you want.
Anyway, enough of my gloom. Trying to be of better spirit as it is the holidays. Good luck everyone and Merry Christmas.
