    Hi all - Got night shift for the next 3 nights in a row so will be popping in every now and then before and after my shift.

    Angel Babies - I hope this is your cycle! I'm glad to hear that the tests are going well for you, I wish it was that easy for me

    Jen - Thanks for the prayers and baby dust. DF is actually excited about TTC this cycle because he knows how much it would mean to me if I was UTD and I was due on my bday!

    Ruthie - In the 2nd pic I can see the faint faint line, but the first one I couldn't see anything.. I hope it's good for you!

    mollycat - Thanks! I hope you get your long awaited BFP! I'm so very sorry bout the death of the doggy I know how you feel, Even though I didn't know DFs dog for long, after my m/c, he was the kindest, sweetest dog - it was like he'd changed completely towards me (one of the first times I'd met him, he nipped me - then he'd just keep running away from me) then he'd curl up next to me, fall asleep on me. Anyway, on the 7th of April this year (I remember because it was the 1st day of my orientation of my new job) I got a message from DF saying that they needed to put him down - he'd been suffering from fluid in the lungs for almost 3 months and it was not to that point where he was basically drowning on the inside. On the 8th of April (12 days before my birthday) little Max was put down (this is him : https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...84&ppuser=8944) To this day, I still miss him so much. The day that it happened, everyone cried except me - and three days later I did, I cried and cried for two days straight. Like I said, I miss him so much, but when our house is built, we're looking at getting our own dog - It won't replace Max, but it will help me get over it.. Sorry about the long post!

    Tina - Sending you prayers for your Angel's EDD - I saw the post yesterday and said a prayer. I'm also sending prayers to you for your current bub, I'm so sure you'll be fine and hoping you have a H & H pregnancy

    AJC - I can't believe you're ticker is going so quickly! Hope your enjoying your pregnancy

    Easha - So sorry bout the BFN and AF. Hope you get a BFP very very soon!

    Issy - I looks like you're taking a break until the same space of time as me Good luck when you do catch you egg and get a long awaited BFP (I know you've been waiting for a long time)

    Lisa - Looking forward to seeing if you get a BFP or AF - Though I am hoping it's a BFP because you've been trying for so long!

    PLC - Hope your doing well and enjoying your pgncy

    Chappas - Sorry you and DD have tonsillitis Get well soon!

    tutmae - Good luck! I hope that you've caught the eggy and that you'll be UTD!

    Vanaithi - I hope you get a nice BFP (and a nice temp rise too!)

    Krystie - I'm usually in the chat rooms around that time because my body is so used to me doing nights shifts - good thing I actually do have night shifts most of this week!

    WTH - Oh I hope everything is ok - sending lots of hugs and lots of sticky vibes!

    Toccara - So sorry you feel so down, sending lots of big hugs your way.

    Joey - Nice to meet you too - I'm hoping I get a BFP this cycle, but if I don't, we don't mind because we can at least wait and concentrate. I HATE when AF turns up on my birthday! I've had it happen three times (thank goodness it had started before my birthday this year!) and it's cr@p because your usually in a cr@ppy mood. So very sorry you had a M/C - Sending massive hugs to you!

    AFM : I found an OPK in the bathroom (cleaning up because we've got a rent inspection on Thursday) and thought I would use it.. I looked at the time and said 'You know what? I'll use it on CD15' because we'd be well into our BD session!
    Anyways, if I don't get UTD this cycle, we'll be waiting until AT LEAST after the wedding next year, so I don't mind whatsoever - even if it is a 'whoopsies' one that happens either on our wedding night or beforehand :P

    Hi Ladies,

    Issy and Liz best of luck over the next few months - please pop in and say hello as often as possible

    Tina - best of luck with the BT Friday

    Joey - ooohhh what a bugger we are not going skiing at the same time. No cake for your birthday - whats with that !!! I will be Ov a few days into the snow trip hence another reason for going... I figure I have been trying for 6 months now and cant waste a month.
    I also had a quick look at progesterone options on the net as well, there is even a cream that can apparently be used that works just as well. I will try to get into the gyno over the next wk and will let you know what he says. I am afraid he might just fob me off and not understand how much this means to me. I read a few horror stories on the net about gynos that dont want to help until 3 MC's. I am just going to have to be very firm with what I want. I think I will also go on B6 tomorrow to support the luteal phase. Let me know what you find out cause it looks like we are going through the same thing.

    AFM - AF is hitting quite hard - painful and very heavy

    Jen - I think I'll be going to Borders on Friday so I'll have to get that book! What's it called again? Just kidding! You told me so many times I swear it's imprinted on my brain

    LJ - I really hope that your "one more go" turns into a beautiful birthday present!!!

    Ruthie - I looked at your stick pictures, and I'm pretty sure that there is something on the sticks in the first picture! Didn't you say that you need to have injections when you first find out you are pregnant? Maybe you should assume that the faint lines are a definite BFP and make an appointment with your Obs asap. I'm getting very excited for you!

    Mollycat - I hope you DS is feeling a little better The page of pictures he made sounds beautiful. And it probably is helping him to get through this sad time to do something creative like that.

    Tina - I was thinking about you yesterday on your angel's EDD. I'm dreading my angel's sue dat. It must be a comfort to have your angel's sibling in your belly, but I'm sure it's still a very hard time to go through.
    What did you buy for your bubba and yourself?
    I can't wait until you have your obs appointment!

    AJC - Hi!

    Easha - I was so sad when I saw your temp drop I was hoping really hard that it wasn't the start of AF. I'm so sorry that this wasn't your month. At least you get to have an April baby with the rest of us
    I'll try to pop into chat on Friday night too to see you.

    Issy - Very cool that your mum (and half your family) are able to answer questions for you! I thought for a moment that it would be great if my mum was a midwife, then I realised that if she was I wouldn't be able to get away with not having her in my room during labour. Lol, as much as I adore my mum, I don't think I could handle her during childbirth hehe.

    Acria - I hope AF has stayed away for you! You're so strong to hold out until Thursday morning to test.

    Angel - I do the same as you! Test from really early and I don't get too upset by the negatives because I'm convinced that the BFP is just around the corner. I tell DH that I'm just "practising", lol, as if I need to have a couple of practise runs to make sure I can get the pee in the cup And I knew exactly what you meant about kind of easing your way into a BFN. I'm sure that's not the case this month though!!!
    Ummm, have you seen my pills?

    Plc
    - Hi honey!! Hope to see you in chat soon

    Chappas - I hope the tonsil are ok My brother just had to have his out, but he's had ongoing problems with his for years. Feel better both you and your DD!!

    Tutmae
    - Nice to see you jumped back on the temping bandwagon! Oh, and it looks like your temps on the way up too. YAY!

    Van - AF is NOT due on Saturday. In fact AF is not due for at least another 9 months!!! Good luck when you test chicky!

    WTH - I hope with all my heart that you got good news today at your ultrasound. My thoughts are with you sweetness!

    Smilanatu
    - Awwww, I wasn't being naughty. It was all Jen and Angel's fault. I was trying to be a good girl and all their naughty, sordid vibes MADE me be bad. Can't you see my halo?

    Toccara - Oh the showers must have been so hard for you! I'm glad no-one I know is pregnant at the moment. It's hard enough seeing strangers with their babies, let alone having to be publically happy for a friend. Hmmm, that kinda sounded bad, but I know you all know what I mean...

    Joey
    - You super-poster!
    I think I agree with your friend. If I were you I would still give it a go. I figure that the worst case scenario if you DO try is that you conceive and then there are problems with implantation due to skiing (although I don't think skiing would effect things...) and you won't fall pregnant. BUT, if you DON'T try this month then you definitely won't fall pregnant. At least if you do try then there is a chance of a baby.
    Unfortunately I can't help you with your questions about the pessaries.
    I am jealous you are going skiing though! I've never been skiing. In fact, the only time I have ever seen snow was when I was a toddler!


    AFM
    - Not much going on at the moment. I'm working an extra couple of shifts at work this week, so hopefully a little more money for the savings account (that I call the "baby account") hehe.
    Unfortunately I have still been a bit down in the dumps, but I'm going to keep trying to be positive because I know sookiness doesn't help when TTC'ing! Maybe the crappy weather isn't helping!
