Trying to Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ July 2010

*taking a deep breath***

Thanks dory!!! Will wait for another 5 days. Will see GP. I know her really well- a family friend like an aunt to me. I guess knowing I had MC in June she wouldn't think that I'm am idiot to scream so early.

Wait till Friday morning n test an I u still feels funny will call to see her on Sat morning. Like u say... It's so much easier to "catch" her than my ob!

Thanks once aaine! U ladies really help me to put things into perspective. Now that u mention I did have a really bad flu in the middle of my cycle. And like u said, may be I o later. ...... Emmmemmm.... My dear body... U r driving me nuts ( may be I've really gone nuts for I'm talking to my womb in the forum) ;(

Forshelby - I know how you feel.... only too well. But honestly for me, giving up work was the best decision..... DH tells me that almost every day. DH tells me I am happier, less stressed and giving everything my best shot. It's not easy, it's not easy at all going from the life I have built over so many years and from which I gained a lot of my self worth on the work, sport, social fronts. But when bubs comes along there would be changes anyway, just think f it as getting prepared early. But once bubba is snuggley inside this journey is no longer just about me... and if I have to put some of my personal ambition and ego aside then so be it.

Iona - absolutely drop own to those subjects. You and how you feel are more important than some uni subjects. Take the pressue off yourself! Sorry to hear the m/s is bad.

Dampyre - I am just so glad you had such a good night and weren't too dusty the next day. That my dear is just hteperfect combination - a great night out and no misery the next day. Well done on the job. Usually when I can't see because I've drunk so much, it gets pretty messy and miserable after that! Not that I've had that experience for a very long time.

Claire'smummy - well done at the campdraft. I went camping in SE Qld in winter once and it got to minus 7 ( or at least that's what we think because that's the temperature at which olive oil freezes..... it was minus 3 about a metre away from the fire ..... eeek that was cold.....)

Reet, Kellbell and anyone else I've missed. I still get in here sometimes to stalk..... hope your BFP's come soon.

Bons ..... any news......

Dory- Thank you, I really did have a wonderful time and getting a fourth topped my week end, I am anly pretty new to drafting I have always competed in Dressage and showing until meeting up with my DF and he is right into the campdrafting. So I thought I would follow suit and give it a go and I am loving it, it's a blast and such a very family friendly sport.
Kellbell- Thanks for the internet site darl, just about to go and have a very good read, it takes forever for the test line to come up when I do an O test so Im really not sure whats going on and if I should just give the OPKs' the flick and stick with my own body telling me when.
AFM- Just when I had given up hope on ever going to O I have massive amounts of EWCM today I have never had this much before and sorry if TMI but I'm as randy as a bull on viagra today...lol......so tonights the night to DTD if I don't ravage DF in next hour or so as its his RDO today......did another OPK test just now and it's now 10mins later and the test is telling me nothing it's a negative from the test.....so whats the go with that??????? But my body is definately saying go for it.....
Oh well now I have totally done my head in with OPKs and temping and CM let's see what mother nature brings in the next few hours.......

Clairesmummy - you get your surge 12 - 48 hours before you ovulate so the test might have been positive a day or two ago even though you may be ovulating tonight does that make sense
are you temping as you will get a rise as soon as youve ovulated - i like Fertilty friend as it gives you an idea when you did pop your egg with your temps
i hated opks alot and have ditched them this month they drove me crazy!!!!

Ajello id go and get a blood test then youll know for sure :-) i hope your up the duff!

My temps have gone really high
here is my FF friend chart
http://www.fertilityfriend.com/ttc/
what do you guys think - im too scared to test
I hope my temps stay up there :pray:

Kellbell-I have temping but I missed saturday and sunday morning due to being flat out at the draft, I did my temo this morning though and it was low, when my temp spikes at O time it usually stays up for a few days then drops again if Im not UTD. So I'm guessing I havent Oed yet well I'm hoping anyhow and hoping it may happen in the next day or sooner hoping to catch that egg before it's to late. I have only just started using FF and find it pretty good but I write it all down as well. God I'm so nervous and so excited all in one if thats possible. Not going to get my hopes up for my BFP I really want to listen and feel what my body is telling me as I knew exactly when I fell PG with my DD and that in itself was an awesome feeling knowing that you can be so in tune with your body to realise you have just conceived.
Bout to go and have a look at your chart on FF but I say do that POAS and see what it says prepare for the horrible dreaded 1 line cause I always think if your prepare for the worst you are always more than excited when the best shines through.
Good luck darl and I so hope you get your BFP now I have my FX for you and sending you lots of sticky vibes and baby dust your way, it's on it's way in a B-Double truck....lol.....

sounds like you haven't ovulated then - get the BD going tonight and make that bubba :p

thanks for the sticky vibes and baby dust ill be waiting out for it haha :lol: im going to wait a bit longer i know the minute i buy a test the witch AF will come. i did groceries today and didnt go anywhere near the aisle with the preg tests i was proud of myself :clap:

well done KellBell I wouldnt of been able to help myself and would have to POAS, as much as I don't like playing in pee,lol....the things we have to do hey. Will definately be getting the rumba on tonight though...lol......tried looking at your chart but it wont let me get on there...grrrr......I so hope and pray that you get your BFP and the dreaded AF stays away from you for the next 9 months. :)

yeah im not sure how to put a link to it :doh:

hi girls,

i just keeping dropping in here to check on you all cause i have a feeling there is an pending bfp announcement.......who is it going to be ?? bons, kellbell or someone else.......

dory: lovely to see you still popping in, hope you are well :-)

Damprye - Kellie started a website?? Do tell! Hope your new job works out perfectly for you.

Kellie - I see a BFP in Reet's future as well! :) And yours. FX for you, hun. It's ok to feel a bit jealous, I'm jealous of her fancy lifestyle.. lol.

Clairesmummy - Yay for prize money! Unfortunately I haven't thrown up in that woman's handbag yet, but anything could happen still.. I have 2 more weeks to go as I did the right thing and gave notice. I plan to exit gracefully and with honour, at the very least. Don't miss any days with your opks, the surge is quite fleeting. Next month get one of those 7 packs, and follow the instructions as to when to start testing. Don't stop till you see two lines! :) You can do it. Oh and about the randiness, my body usually gave me 'GO' signals a few days prior to O. So get in that bedroom, girl!

Ajello - Test again in a couple of days, I think. And yes, window shop to your hearts content. Also, don't feel bad for setting off alarm bells even if it is a false alarm. Just do what you need to do to put your mind at ease. FX this is a BFP for you!

Dory - Amazing advice as usual. I swear you have a camera in my house. I said just last night that I feel like so much of my identity is tied up with working, that I might struggle to adjust to it all, but really it's the best decision. We've decided to call me a 'Domestic Manager' and 'Chief Nursery Decorator'. LOL.... :) Thanks again for your wisdom. I feel so much better.

Minnie - Hi hun, how are you doing?

AFM - Itchiest bbs today! And the ms keeps coming and going. Just when I think it's 'safe' there it is again, making me feel crap. Argh... lol. So the boss came and asked me for my letter of resignation today (as I knew he would... pity I was so busy WORKING I hadn't written it yet) so I quickly typed one out and handed it to him trying to hide my glee. I really do feel better now it's a done deal. They've alread advertised my position... ha! They don't waste any time, do they. Just shows how important I was, huh. Oh well, just happy to be free, and only 9 working days left until I'm a full time incubator. Can't wait. As you can see by my ticker, 9 weeks today. Come on 12 weeks!!

I hope you're all well!

Kell I say test.

Forshelby-:dance: Yay for 9 weeks PG today......:dance: That's awesome.
I got the 7 tests this time and used the last one today and still no the wiser....:wall: But have lots of EWCM today more than I have since the MC in April......:clap: we are certainly intending on the rumba tonight and the next couple of nights, this arvey I have been having a few twinges on my lower right side nothing crampy just feeling a sharpish pain every now and then which only last for a few seconds I usually get a bit of O pain. So maybe just maybe all is not lost this month :pray: :D
But we shall see what happens in the next few days and couple of weeks.
Such a shame you haven't got that woman yet...lol......I'm only kidding I wouldn't really do it either so much better leave with grace and honour I do agree. But it's fun to have evil thoughts sometimes.....lol....;):angelic:
Ajello- I hope everything is going well for you keep your chin up and sending hugs to you.

Thanks for the welcome back :)
I have my fingers crossed for lots of BFPs this month!
Well I guess I am in my TWW! I think I O'd on Thursday or Friday.. I have never done charting or temping or anything so who really knows! I do have a very regular 28 day cycle though but as it's only my second cycle since the m/c I don't really know where I am at. I am feeling a little bit crampy, don't know what that means!
I'm on my phone so can't remember what anyone else wrote but when I can get on the comp I'll do persies :)
Xx

Stoked- Welcome and best of luck for your TWW I hope you get your BFP I have my FX for you.

Clairesmummy - good luck :wink:

Forshelby - 9 weeks!! Wooww... yeh be an incubator and relax.

AFM... on BB hurting still... Stop using underwire bras... ohhh :sad:... mind still very pre occupied!! Oh well, I am dog-sitting for my parents' 12 yo pug. So I guess it will take my mind off until I test again by the end of the week. And if I still get a BFN,I will definitely see the GP get the BT at the nearest hospital so that I can get the test sooner. I asked myself... what happens if it is another MC? I don't want to go through it AGAIN?

AJELLO- The wait and see game is so hard especially when you have had the exp. of a MC before it never gets an easier I think we will all have the worry in our minds on the what ifs and maybes. I just don't know what I can say to make you feel any better, I am sending huge hugs your way and we all understand what you are going through right now and I am here to try to make you feel a little better if I can darl. :hug: Please do try to keep your chin up and try to stay positive, it always helps me if I can look at the positive side of things.
Kellbell- Have you tested yet????? I am waiting very patiently to read your :bfp: Hope the narky AF is staying well away for you. And Im still sending you lots n lots of :stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy::pink-babydust::bluedust: Good Luck darl.
AFM- Well what can I say think I may have O'ed last night sometime and yes we did DTD.:bd: so I'm praying for the best.....had a temp rise this morning so I guess I have O'd whether or not we caught the egg thats anybodies guess. :pray:
Today I was meant to get our washing done but obviously I'm not meant to wash cause it's raining here again, ah well looks like you lovely ladies will have to put up with me today....lol.....Hope you all have a great day.

Clairesmummy- thanks... still no AF. so, i guess there is still hope. ur words have been great comfort! hope that the egg is caught this time round for u! It is gloomy outside. Most likely stayed in door with the doggy. he will keep my mind off!

AJello- you are more than welcome, the hard part is trying to keep your mind off it. I try to keep myself as busy as possible but I guess my 4y.o DD is great for doing that she is always up to something. Have fun with your dog sitting they are a great distraction as well.
