Trying to Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ June 08

[jen805]

treelo! I knew you hadn't been posting, but was hoping you were still lurking! You're still thought of, whether you're posting or not. It's really good to hear from you! I'm sorry you're so down, and feeling the pressure of TTC--I know how disappointing it is to see those BFN's month after month! I wish you the best of luck with the naturopath--several of the BFP's in this thread have been a sworn result of seeing a naturopath! I think that a break is probably the best thing for you right now--especially since you're having fun, and just letting it happen without all the pressure of temping, charting, BD'ing on demand! Even without doing any of that, please know that you're always welcome here--you're still TTC and you're still like part of the family! My that your more laid-back method will result in a surprise BFP for you! Sending big and bucket loads of



plc--Yuk, sorry to hear of the tosillitis! You take it easy and get lots of rest!

hello ladies...

jen: no i havent tried b6, im taking conceive well & it has it in there, but i will go to the docs to get some tests & they'll find something wrong with me & fix it! & no temp jump for me, but i got a temp drop instead, it's down to 36.3 this morning... i know in my heart that there was no egg for me this time.. i will continue temping though, & buy a digital thermometer to compare the two therm's results. plus the digital one's faster.

afm: i've decided that i wont be posting for a while after this one... going to take a break as it makes me so obsessive about ttc & stressing me out... it'll help me not to think about it too often so i can relax a bit & maybe pop out an egg or 2 next month! i'll still be thinking of you lovely ladies! & sending lots of :goodluck2: to everyone. i will be back with something happy to tell everyone! & that if i do everyone here will be gone into the PAML thread!

see you all in PAML!!!

hi girls
hope all of the aussie girls are enjoying the long weekend

Vanaithi, do what you need to do..if taking a break is what you need, than look after yourself and do it...this is such a difficult journey, and it does get very frustrating...look forward to meeting you in PAML soon !

plc: oooh, sorry about the tonsilitis..hope your better soon!

jen805: im praying for a birthday baby for you, wouldn't that be lovely! I calculated that if im pg now, the baby would be due on our wedding anniversary, so all fingers and toes are crossed for that, i think that would be beautiful...

[jen805]

Vanaithi--Awww, hun, I wish you the best of luck whatever you decide to do. You know what's right for you, so if a break is what you need, then I'm all for it. We'll sure miss hearing from you, but pray that when you return you'll be surprising us with a BFP! Remember that we're always here when you need us! Sending huge your way!



tina--Sending you a big as well! Sorry to hear your feeling so down! This whole TTC thing is hard enough without all the added complications of not knowing whether you've O or not! It was the same for me last month, so I know just how you feel. How thoroughly do you keep track of your cycle? Do you temp, or use opk's or anything like that to help shed some light on the situation?



pbstar--Sorry to hear about your BFN, they never seem to get any easier, do they? Got my and saying big that AF stays away!


AFM... Still been temping, but my body seems to have a mind of it's own! I'm only CD11, but continue to have watery CM--which started before AF, and seems to have continued on after AF. Decided to go ahead and enter it on my chart this morning, and of course, now it shows green meaning I'm already fertile. I just finished AF last week, could I really already be O'ing? It hasn't shown up on my chart yet, but then again I've only been temping for 5 days. Also noticed yesterday that my CP is high and soft--but that's how it was before AF came, as well! I wasn't due to O for another week, and haven't even tried out the preseed, so I'm really hoping my body is just tricking me right now, and I'm not actually O'ing yet. Guess I'll just have to see what my temp does tomorrow... and looks like I'll be molesting poor DF tonight--just in case! I doubt he'll mind!

One other question: I know the B6 helps lengthen LP, but could that be why it seems like I'm O'ing already? Thanks, ladies!

tina k and pbstar for both of you.
Treelo - for you too. Don't give up altogether. Your time will come. It's so frustrating when you see people around you getting BFP's and this is something you want. Never give up, just step back and have a little break, i'm proof that it will eventually happen, it took three years (and clomid) to conceive my second son and my angel was conceived after ten years of trying (and not trying, and trying and not trying). It's been seven months now since I lost my angel and I am wondering when? as well - I just don't have another ten years in me.
Jen- who knows what our bodies are up to, just enjoy BD and hope for the best LOL. (get out another movie DF won't mind at all)

We had a lovely time at the bay (it's about an hour from here and makes a nice break). DH's friend looked after all the kids (his three and our two) and we went to the local tavern for dinner - very nice. The kids all got along with no arguments at all, they played nintendo wii for hours until they drifted off to bed, they were still tired from camping the night before. Then they all went fishing on Monday morning before we came home - didn't catch a thing.
AFM - I'm not sure what i'm up to. My temps have looked good until this morning when i got a big drop (still above the coverline) but i'm guessing AF's on her way. Maybe next cycle will be better behaved.

It's time to go and wake my boys up for school, so i'll try and pop back in later.
for everyone.

well girls, now i know why i was feeling so down yesterday...temp took a huge dive this morning back to baseline temps...
gotta run to work, but looks like its going to be a bad week...

[jen805]

mollycat--Sounds like you had a nice trip to the bay--and even got some adult time away from the kids! The last time DF and I had time away from the kids was in January when he had his yearly dinner with his work! It's the only time every year that we get to go out on a "date", if you call a work-related dinner a date, though it's at least a free meal at a nice restaurant with no kids around! And I always order lobster, so it's a free expensive meal! Sorry to hear about the temp drop, fingers crossed it'll shoot back up tomorrow! Stay away AF!!!


tina--Sorry to read of your temp drop as well Sending you the biggest the biggest box of cyber chocolates, and the biggest cyber daquiri you've ever had! Hope you feel better soon!


AFM...I'm pretty sure that I'm already O'ing. Can't believe it at CD11, but I've got lots of watery CM--although if I'm correct, I'm pretty sure my cervix is closed, so I'm just not sure... now would someone mind checking my chart and telling me if I get another higher temp than the one I had on Sat., will it give me a coverline and show that I O'ed? I'm a little unclear as to when you get one--isn't it after 3 higher temps after your lowest temp, or something like that?



Hey smilanatu--I really hope you aren't anywhere near the flood zones. Are you getting any of that crazy weather that's causing all the flooding? you're in the clear! Hope things are well with you!


and thinking of you all!

Hi girls.

As i said in the TWW thread, looks like i wont be back here for a while. I got 2 BFN's this morning

I feel really crap about it too. Oh well.

Hope that i dont see any of you here when i come back and that you are all over in the PAML thread Good luck..

Abb

[Mel A]

Sending you all tonnes of

It is wierd, I'm starting to feel I don't belong here, but also feel I don't belong in PAML thread yet, and definitely not in a belly buddies thread. Hopefully this is a good sign.
I'm going to Perth on Sat to see my sister who is 34 weeks pgt. So it will be good to see the belly and talk baby stuff for a whole week.

Then when I get back I have a tour of the hospital on sunday and my first OB appointment on the 23rd. Strange we spend so much of our time wating for O then in the TWW. We get a BFP and all of a sudden were on the 8WW.

Still thinking of you all.
