Trying to Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ July 08 #4

Ohhhh Kirsty Love.... I was seriously laughing out loud when I heard about you Biatch slappin Aunty Flow........How dare she talk back.... but when I was reading the scary movie section and the "mmmnnnghhhhh" ....... I LOST IT... I was eating popcorn.. .and laughed so much I nearly lost it.... I ve been sitting here repeating the noise.... "mmmnnnghhhhh" .... "mmmnnnghhhhh" ..... "mmmnnnghhhhh" :cryinglaugh: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: still cracking me up.

As for your 20 weeks... and lurking in the other thread.... you dont need to understand it and neither does anyone else.... do what you need to do to get through...... It doesnt matter what anyone else says... its not their pain to deal with its yours :hug:

hi Ladies,

just touching base for the day...

Angel - the acupuncture sounds great... how did you find an acupuncturist that specialised in conception??? Does your acupuncturist know a good one in Syd??

Ruthie - i have my fingers crossed for you... I really hope you have a BFP in disguise, keep us posted :bfp:

Mollycat - hugs for you... we are all hear for you :hug:

WTH - you poor thing... I am reaching through the computer and giving you huge hugs now :hug:

KL - great idea with the bibs... I have a little jump suit my mum sent to me the friday before I MC, maybe I should pull it out of the draw and have it close to me

Joey - cant wait to hear your next result !!! :hooray:

AFM - you can see I am supposed to start testing tomorrow. I have not bought any tests yet and am going out tomorrow night so will hold off until Thurs (I usually would have got AF Wed night as well), glad the TWW is over !!!!! :cheer::cheer: Temp - please stay high :pray::pray:

Tina CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! loads of :stickyvibesgirl:

Joey :pray: that line does get darker

WTH Sorry about test results :hug: take care + keep up hope

:hello: to everyone else

AFM Have been really down this week f+f telling me to try to relax and it will happen, feel like they dont understand :( at least af has finally left.

hi girls,

krystie: good on you for giving her what she deserves!!!!
and those bibs sound too cute, how will she be able to resist?!
so, a girl huh! what makes you think that????
we go back to Sydney at the end of the year, bubba is due in March, so youll have to come to Sydney to see her (according to your predictions, he he he!!!!)

chappas: thank you :)

easha: ooohhhh, good luck for testing tomorrow! im waiting for you to join me in the July BFPs club :)

pbstar: i completely understand your situation. my SIL is due next week. Im not sure how i will cope with it once she does have her bub, as my EDD is this week, so its a very emotional time for me. Im glad you have a wonderful supportive husband to help get you through this difficult time...

be back in the morning for more...as for now...off to bed for this nanna...i was so tired today i left work early and come home for a nap!!!

Angel Babies - If it's any consolation, I laughed out loud when I pictured you repeating "mmmnnnghhhhh" with popcorn coming out of your mouth!
What store did you buy your gift for always knowing the right thing to say? Thank you for your words :hug:

Jenushka - It's nice to see you still lurking. I'm so glad your pregnancy is going so well :)

Tutmae - I've read that it's more about patterns than the actual temperature when it comes to temping. So as long as you still get a rise after ovulation I'm sure it's fine.

Easha - Yes! Pull out the jump suit! Nothing like a little incentive to get what you want ;) Good luck with testing!!!

Chappas - Next time someone one tells you you just need to relax, start poking them with your finger over and over. Then ask them if they can relax. Tell them that TTC is like something poking at your brain 24/7 and how are we supposed to relax?!

Tina - I will definitely be coming to Sydney to meet your daughter! I don't know why, but I can sooooo picture you with a little pink bundle! By the time you have her my best friend should be back living in Sydney so I'll get to visit you and your bubba, and her and my "nephew" Spencer!

How cute is this...? My DH has signed up to BellyBelly! He hasn't posted yet though. Oh Oh, does this mean I'm going to get busted for buying something for the baby?! :ROFL:

KrystieLove..... Well see... laughing is just the absolute best medicine... As for the other part about where I get what I write....noooo sorry... no store... it comes direct from the heart and I send it before I think about it. Maybe sometimes people dont like what I write but it comes straight from the heart

As for DH signing up on BB... goodness... far to many things I write in here that DH doesnt need to know about... including when I m peeved at him ... but yet he knows all about all of you..... good on you for your DH signing up

WTH - I'm so sorry you are going through a hard time at the moment.:hug:


Vanaithi- I hope you caught the egg!:pray:

KL- I hope you didn't think that i thought no one else deserved their BFP. Only I remember when you first posted in this thread. It was around the same time as my ectopic. I was so scared, but remember thinking that you were feeling the same things I was feelings. I never posted at that time, but you helped me realise I wasn't alone.

As for logging onto the Bellybuddy thread. I must admit I have done that too. I don't know why, it's torture.:wall:. I have been better recently. I can't imagine how painful it will be if come January and i'm not UTD. I know others here are going through that and I really feel for them.

One more thing KL- i love your poking thingo. I might have to try that one out.

tina - Yay!!

AFM- (TMI warning) I had some slight brown cm today. 4 days after AF finished. I had this last month too. any ideas? I think it must be remnants of Af. Apart from that, just waiting to O. DH is desperate to get BDing. But I feel so down & just want to O and make a baby. :(. this up and down cycle we get ourselves into is terrible. How do we switch our brains off and stop thinking about TTC?:wall::wall:

Sandygirl, I promise it never even crossed my mind that you might not have thought everyone deserved their BFP :D :hug: I know you are hoping just as hard as everyone else that we clear this thread as soon as possible and fill up the PAML thread! Man, imagine the party we'll start in there once we all move across! :ROFL:

Angel - The best things DO come straight from the heart :hug: Feel free to keep it all flowing :D

That great. I'm not always good at expressing myself in writing. Especially after an exhausting day. I will def be at that party with bells. Showing off my Baby Bump.:cryinglaugh:.

Hi girls. Joey and Tina, congatulations! Got my fingers crossed for you that everything is, and stays, well :)

Not really doing personals, as obviously, I haven't been on here very much. I've just been taking it easy this cycle and not really thinking about TTC..though I know we did BD the morning after I ovulated. Was glad to see I was still on the list, etc ;)

Good luck ladies, thinking of you all, even if I'm very quiet.

Lisa xx

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Sorry, this is going to be a "me" post for a minute... I'm so confused... Just entered this morning's temp, and FF changed my coverline and O day! My score went from "high" to "low" chance of conception! :wtf: Instead of O'ing on CD14 (which maybe I still could've, since I had really bad O pains that day?) it says I O'ed on CD 16--which means we only BD'ed once while I was fertile! :wall: Damn it!

Jen: WHAT?! How can it do that??!! Maybe what it was doing was getting you all positive when baby was conceived, then lowering your expectations after so that when that :bfp: hits it'll be even better??!!

Morning gurlies!

mollycat...I have given AB (lol) the SAME talk

Joey...*chanting* witch stay away witch stay away witch stay away witch stay away

tina_k...YOU GO GURLIE!!! :dance:

WTH...:hug: praying everything will be well for you and bub...you HAVE to remain positive AND believe everything will be okay...negative vibes are a no-no...like Angel Babies said to you...you have to talk to the tummy and let bub know how much you love him/her...it's hard to do when the odds are against you BUT you HAVE to!!! Praying for your miracle! P.S. I know a little something about the age bracket you're in as well;)

pbstar...no one can understand how YOU feel until they've been where you are...don't feel guilty...you know your heart...

KrystieLove...I can ALWAYS count on you for my morning smiles! As for DH getting a BB account...that = you having to fight for PC time...LOL

jen...I am quickly losing faith in your FF chart...seems like every month it is wishy washy...maybe it just means you need to :bd: every day every month until PG...LOL

Okay ladies I gots work to do...

:pink-babydust::bluedust:
:stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy:

Thanks, Tutmae, you're sweet... :hug: I've had FF change my chart before, but that was prior to temping when I was only checking CP & CM--in situations like that I can understand that there's not really enough info to make an accurate prediction, but I'm at a loss with this one... Seems to me that if it's going by temps, then how can it just change after it's already picked up a thermal shift? I know you're new to temping, I'm not really asking you how it could change, just asking myself out loud in your post! :lol: This really sucks, though, since now I'm supposedly only 3DPO--the TWW is bad enough without having it extended! I just want AF to show up early now to get on with the next cycle :(

Still figuring out personals, so will be right back...

Oh, I just realised I haven't talked nearly anywhere enough about myself today! Sheesh! I'm slipping!DH and I are very very much on the same page when it comes to :bd: (poor thing even suffered through his bad case of the flu for the cause!!). Looks like I'm probably going to o in the next couple of days (early o-ing apparently isn't that uncommon). I just want to see that coverline and know that I am o-ing. I've been having these little pains on my right hand side for to days now, down low next to my hip bone. Could be gas? Maybe? But I'm going to assume it's o pain.

Sorry for the rambling. A girlfriend just put up some pics of her little one on facebook and we were due around the same time, so rambling is better than moping.

:pink-babydust::bluedust: and :stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy: for all!

Jen, af isn't going to show up!! I've banned her for all of us. Yes. I'm just. That. Good.
:P

WTH-- Oh, hon, you really are such a selfless person for offering congrats to tina while you're so down about your own situation! :hug: You're an inspiration! Aren't there some meds your dr. can give you that will increase your chances? Just seems like with as advanced as we are technologically, there has to be something that they can do for you! I'm :pray: for a miracle for you. Sending bucket loads of :hug: :stickyvibesgirl: :stickyvibesboy:



Van--Your chart is almost as confusing as mine! Where's your coverline???


pbstar--Don't worry about your SIL, if she has any sense at all she would realize how hard this is for you right now! Your heart is healing, and you have to do what's right for you, and nobody should expect any more from you! And as long as DH is on your side, the rest doesn't matter anyway! Big :hug: for you!


megsmum--Here's hoping the rest of your :2ww: flies by! :crossfingers:

Part 2--


Krystie--I thought Signs was a great movie! Have you seen Scary Movie (I think part 3?) where they poke fun at it? If not, you've got to check it out, it's hilarious! Would be a great pick-me-up when you're feeling down. :lol: that DH left a glass of water out--but he should've left out at least 5--just for the effect! I'm glad you had a talk with your future :babygirl:--I don't think she'll be able to resist the bibs! Maybe you can bribe her with a trip to M.Mountain! (hint,hint!) So DH is going to be the newest member of our little thread? That's great, now I can work on getting him to bring you to M.M.!! Can't your DSS's become members so I can get them all amped up about M.M., then they'll bug you and DH so much, you'll have to come out here just to shut them up! Sounds like a plan to me! :rofl:


jenushka--So glad you're still lurking and cheering us all on! :hug:


tutmae--Are you sure you're using a BD thermometer? I always O pretty early into my cycle, too. In fact, my fertile days usually begin between days 8-10. Makes for a nice, long LP! I can't wait to see your first coverline! It's very exciting! And the pain on your right side definitely sounds like O pain--so bring on the :bd:


Easha--I'm :pray: like crazy for another high temp for you today! Good luck with POAS on Thursday! :crossfingers: for you!


chappas--Sorry to hear you're feeling so down! Here's a big :hug: to cheer you up! At least AF has left the building!! Good luck for this next cycle!

We've really gotta stop writing at the same time!!
I hope I'm using a bd thermometer. I was told thatdigi thermometers are fine, and mine seems pretty darn accurate. I guess we'll find out soon. :crossfingers:

Part 3--


tina--So are you still waiting for Friday to get your BT's? "sigh" You'd think I was waiting for my own BT's, I feel so anxious about yours! :lol: Between you and joey I'm going to have premature gray hair! :stickyvibesgirl: :stickyvibesboy:


Angel B--I've noticed that everything you say comes right from the heart, that's why we love you! Lotsa :hug: for you!!


Sandygirl--If you find that switch to turn off your mind, please tell me where it is so I can turn mine off!! :confused:


Acria--Welcome back! Of course you're still on the list! Oh, and I found your pics in the photo gallery! I've added you to my favorites! :hug:


smilanatu--OMG, every day of every month? I can't even comprehend that! I'll have to check on my other chart, because that one gave me the same O day as FF originally gave me, which was CD14. I'm going to scream if that one changes, too!!

tutmae--I'm sure your thermometer is fine then... FF says if your temps seem off (although we're new to temping, so how can we be sure it's off?) it could be the wrong thermometer, or even the battery. Damn, so I didn't have to wait for my BD thermometer to come in the mail last month, I could've just used my normal thermometer??? :wall: It figures...story of my life!

Jen- The FF details thingy says that my temps are fluctuating at a good level, and I figure as long as the temps are consistant and have the good pattern that they're supposed to then the type of thermometer shouldn't really matter (ours is pretty accurate). Then again, I could just be justifying my cheapness.

I just want to send bg :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: to all you girls who are feeling down. Thankgoodness we have eachother (and our lovely DH/F's) for support!

OK--have entered this am's temp into my other chart, and it still shows O on CD14 (whew!) AND that one still says my overall conception chance is high! Sorry FF, I'm going to hope and :pray: like crazy that you're wrong!!! Maybe I'm not out yet for this month--I would hate to be 3DPO and feeling like there's already no chance!

Jen Jen Jen.... lets not go giving up yet....Just because you entered a temp that a computer programe didnt like doesnt mean you have no chance this cycle........ I personally dont use FF.... I use a programe that I brought and is on my laptop.... that s why you dont see a link at the bottom of my name......but thats beside the point..... Your on this TWW with me girl.... and I m not prepared to leave my TWW buddy behind.. so come on.. pick up you socks.. ignore that damn programe.. and think positively...... Besides that, you know your DH is a competitive thing....I bet his swimmers are too.... so even if you did "o" on the CD16 instead of CD14 and only BD once you still have some very competitive swimmers still freestyling :sperm: to find the egg, regardless of whether or not the egg was hiding at the time.

http://img395.imageshack.us/img395/1...handzl4.th.jpg So here you go... my hand s out to you.. grab it girl... we will get through the TWW together

Jen- Ooooh. Maybe it's cos your temp dropped a bit the day after the peak THEN had 3 subsequent days of rising? I dunno, could be newbie talk! But, hmmm, looking again it's become clear I have NO idea what I'm talking about. I'm with Angel. I reckon you DF's little guys are butterflying their little hearts out right now!

Angel--Thanks for not leaving me behind! You've brought me to :crying: You're always there bringing everyone up when they're down! Thanks so much for the helping hand--I've grabbed it and am holding on for dear life! :hug:



Thanks to you too, tutmae! You girls are my early morning pals, and now I know why!

Tears are fine sometimes...they release the pressure that builds up.... and besides, you're the one out there making sure everyone else is fine... its completely normal for you to occasionally need a "hand".... we all do from time to time.

As for early morning..... too bloody early... its nealy 2am here so I m off to bed now....Hugs to all.... we need some serious cheering up in here... Group Hug... Group Hug :grouphug:

Thanks for the :hug: and the hand! Sweet dreams! :grouphug:

Night night angel!! Jen, early morning/late night buddy, it's about one in the am over here, and I have brekky with dear ol Pa (so I'll be taking my bbt 30 mins early, hope that doesn't matter too much) before he heads back to Sydney tomorrow, so I'm off for some zzz's too! Feel bad leaving you here! So I'm sending many a :hug: you're way, darlin!
Have a great day and don't stress too much!
:bluedust: :pink-babydust:

Thanks, tutmae--get your sleep, and don't feel bad about me! Sweet dreams, and hope you enjoy breakfast with your Pa! Nighty night!

Hey Jen... need to get to sleep but cant till you change your emotion from stressed.....

Tutmae.... enjoy your breakfast with your Pa

Angel--How's this???

Much Much better.... Ok... Nite Nite :hug:

Gosh...I always miss chatter time! :lol: Seems I need to cut back on the work so I can check in more often...

smilanatu--Work can wait... Chatter time at BB is SO much more important! :rofl:

Wow - girls - it's just taken me about half an hour to catch up on all that's been going on while this one has her beauty sleep (i obviously didn't get enough last night LOL). Seriously I feel much better today, Like krystie, I thought this month was it, and it hits really hard when it's not. TTC is so much harder with PCOS, I really need to exercise more and eat properly. I think i'll just take my time with the diploma course. I don't really need it for what I do, I just wanted to extend my knowledge, so I'll complete the modules I have here in my own time and NOT STRESS OVER IT.

WTH - :hug: I hope that everything turns out ok for you, your little one has one tough mumma so with genes like that he/she has every chance of making it. Praying for the best for you.

Krystie - love the bibs, they sound beautiful, now what little girl could resist having some new clothes, shouldn't be much longer and she'll be able to have them.

PBStar - Ignore everyone else and concentrate only on you. YOU are what matters here. I had this a few weeks ago when my SIL had a girl only days before my EDD, my mother so joyfully rang me and informed me "I was the first she had let know" WHY?, then my in-laws visited the other day and they couldn't help themselves they had to make a big deal out of it too (they're not even related to my SIL). Even when DH told them we weren't interestered they kept going. SO, :hug: for you and your DH.

Jenushka - 9 weeks already - sounds like everything is going well.

Easha :goodluck: for testing, Tina and Joey needs friends in the July club

Sandygirl and Krystie - imagine the mods when we all head off to the PAML thread, they'll be so busy making new threads for us, seeing as though we fill this one up so fast.

Is everyone ready to catch - i'm about to throw some sticky vibes and baby dust around and I don't want anyone to miss out. Ready, 1, 2, catch:bluedust::stickyvibesgirl::pink-babydust::stickyvibesboy: I'm about to go and tidy through my house, I have a lady and little boy coming later today to see about day care, so want to make sure the house looks like kids love coming here

morning girls

thank you all for all the :hug:- with you girls and DH i am nearly all hugged out!

here's one more big one for all of us :grouphug:

WTH- am saying extra :pray: for you at the moment, let us know how you're going.

morning all,

no personals this morning as I have to fly....

How do I stop myself from going nuts today.... The temp remained above the coverline and this morning I feel weird... I have a fluttery stomach - cant describe it but is bordering on feeling sick...

:pray::pray::pray::pray: AF STAY AWAY !!!!

I'll test tomorrow as I cant stand the suspense

Have a good day !

Yay, mollycat, I caught some of your dust! Glad to hear you're going to postpone your diploma course for now--even happier to hear you aren't going to stress over it! Good luck tidying up the house--mine could SURE use it--I take cleaning donations! :lol:


Good morning pbstar! :hello: Hope you have a great day!


Easha--Sending out mega loads of stay away AF vibes! Saying LOTS of :pray: for your BFP tomorrow!! Nice temp--yay, it's still above coverline!! :cheer:

Jen - sending the cleaning fairy your way. My playroom looks really good now. I've moved everything about four or five times, my first little boy has just arrived for the day (almost 3yo) and my 11yo is sitting on the floor playing with him and our new "fire station doll house". Too cute. By the time this lady comes with the little boy, the room will looked played in. I've got an easy day today, two little boys - the one already here and a 2yo due in about 15 minutes. I'll be finished before 5pm (usually it's 6.30 today). Glad you caught some dust - bet it was the pink one.
