Trying to Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ June 08

[tina_k]

krystielove; your temps are still sitting higher that your pre O tmps, so its not over yet!

DH and i have been chanting the mantra "this months our month, this months our month"!
lets hope it works!

[Jodsan]

Hey where there's hope - Apparently you have a better chance at Oing on your lunar time if you are having lots of sex, so we went for it

Kristielove - I agree with Tina, you may have just been a little colder or something. It's never over til AF comes!

Thanks Tina and Jodsan. I know I shouldn't loose heart yet. I'm still feeling a little down, but I'm going to hold onto a little hope, and I think my temp tomorrow morning will tell me what I need to know.

And Jodsan, I hope you managed to spontaneously ovulate! 2 chances are better than one

Vanaithi - I'm so glad that the preseed went well for you! I also peeked at your chart again, but I'm not sure what's going on for you. Sorry

Jen - The silly public holiday means I get a day off work (yay!), but also means I have to wait until Tuesday for the test results. I think I'll probably know one way or the other before the test results come back. I'll still keep my fingers a little crossed.

WTH - I'm been seeing Dr Pregs Pillay and he's been really fantastic. Even when I was crying after we found out we lost our angel, he was just so understanding but at the same time talked to me about the situation.
I'm glad your bleeding has stopped. I'm still not sure about the follicle thing either... My ob said he could see follicles on my left ovary where I ovulated from, but didn't mention much about my right ovary other than to say they both looked nice and healthy. Not sure if that means there were no follicales on the right though, or if he just didn't mention them.

Toccara - I agree with everything Jen said. It's really hard to know if you've ovulated unless you have bloods/ultrasound done (I think) or if you are temping. I find temping really enjoyable as I get to know my body more and because I feel like I am doing something productive towards conceiving. I can always feel when I ovulate, but I know a lot of ladies can't. If you are still TTC, I would probably suggest to continue bd'ing every couple of days until you are sure that you have ovulated. Good luck!!

Hi ladies,

Just dropping in to say and let you all know that I am now on my third of five days of taking Clomid. As yet I have had no side effects I am so pleased. AF has left and everything is going well at this stage this cycle, into the clinic on Wed for BT and scan to see how things are progressing.

Will be back in the next day or so for persies, hope you are all well and enjoying the weekend!

The extension is finally finished. YAY. The shower screen was installed yesterday. Now the rest of the reno is up to us. Time for that cyber house warming party - break out the cyber drinks, PLC you can have as much as you want and it won't hurt a bit.

I'm having a very quiet day today, DH and DS's have gone camping for the night, they'll be back tomorrow and then we are all going up to our friends house at the Bay, (near the beach) for the night, we'll be staying with our friend and his three sons (his wife is in Sydney for the weekend), so should be very noisy but lots of fun. I've spent the day doing lots of retail therapy.

Megsmum - that's great that you have no side effects this time, hope that clomid works for you.
KrystieLove - hope your temps go back up for you, maybe you were just a little colder this morning.
Tina K - THIS IS YOUR MONTH - I'll just help you with your mantra
WTH - All the best this month, hope DH feels better soon
Jen - your chart looks great, lol, looking forward to seeing lots more dots and in a few days there will be a red cross as well.

Hi Jen,

Yeh. OH and i have decided that if i dont fall PG this month that we will stop trying for 6 months or so. Its hard for me because i want this sooooo bad but then i can also see where he is coming from. Sex is just not fun anymore even though we've only be "officially trying" for 3 months *sigh* He wants me to go back on the pill but i think i know enough to avoid pregnancy without contraception. God how cruel does that make me sound?

im ing so so hard to get a bfp but we'll see. I've got 3 - 4 days til testing now and im not having any kind of symptoms apart from wanting to pee more than usual. But im not having any usual AF symptoms either so who knows..

So sorry this has been a "me" post but i just need to get it off my chest. Why does this have to be so hard to do.... I want to cry......



would it be too early to test??

Hello lovely ladies!

DS and I are back safe and sound from our trip to Syd - had a great time. We spent the whole time catching up with friends and family and even better, had almost no chance at all to even think ttc thoughts. I was surprised to see when I logged in to ff that I only have 5 days till testing - eek! Can now heartily recommend a trip interstate as a good antidote to the 2ww terrors!! Took the thermo along so i could temp, but didn't take it out of the case once. be interesting to see what's going on tomorrow morning...

Shall do my best now with a few persies but there have been so many posts that I only had a chance to speed read them...

jen - hello!! Glad to hear you got your preseed and let me know how you divided it into 2 "portions" (if you do use it in 2 doses). Thanks for saying you missed my posts ... awwww. Was logged into bb within 15 min of walking in the door, so guess that means I missed you guys too!

Vanaithi - did you end up planning anything for the long w/end? hoping that all of your efforts result in a lovely bfp this cycle

bettyboop- sorry to hear your appt was cancelled - do you know when it will be rescheduled to?

jodsan - well done for timing the bd with your lunar return, and how cool that you had signs that back that up.... I have my fingers crossed for you also

toccara - they sound like they could be o signs...

krystielove - your ob sounds excellent - half your luck to find one that is so encouraging and supportive. Sounds very lucky for your ob to be called "Pregs"! sorry to hear witchface af may be on her way, particularly after bt's etc. Big and I hope your temp was just inaccurate for some reason

wth - lol at the early temp taking beeping! ikwym - even though I'm awake that early... I hope your poor dh recovers from his flu soon but glad to hear he is still assisting with the process (lol!)

megsmum - great to hear that the clomid has been treating you kindly so far

mollycat - sounds like you will have a great weekend. I'm very jealous of the retail therapy!

abbey - Wow... big decision you and dh have made, but sounds like a lot of thought has been put into it. Here's hoping that you get a nice well-timed bfp in a few days. Big

My eyes are almost closed, think I'd better go to bed even tho its early! Hello to the new ladies - I'm sorry to hear of your losses, but as the others have said this place will look after you.

We need some , its been ages. Maybe bfp's in here are like buses - you wait ages for one to come along and then 3 arrive at once!!!

and to all...
