Hey ladies the pass couple weeks have been stressful for me (seems like a bad year for me) so I have not been online I still have not gotten AF and my nips are still sore they been that way for week 1/2 now ... I M/C on May 19th so it may be to soon but my reg cycle is 21 days ... I'm give it until the end of June and then go get checked out or should I wait longer???

Issy~ Congrats hope everything work out well for you...

Jen - No worries, happy to fill you in A trigger is a shot of HCG. HCG is similar to LH in structure, so basically it is being used to make my body think that my LH is surging so that I will ovulate from that mature follie. Its just a bit of added insurance that ovulation happens because the clinic thinks that maybe I am not quite getting there in terms of LH surge every month. IUI is intrauterine insemination

Hi to all you other ladies, hope you're all having a nice day!

Just a quick one. Issy and Jenushka, congratulations girls So pleased to hear your good news.

Hi ladies,

Thankyou for all your thoughts, prayers and congratulations. AF has not shown up yet and I have not done another test yet either. I think Ill wait for a few days before doing another one (providing AF stays away) I dont want to get comfortable with the idea that im pg, just incase it doesnt stay that way.

I am trying to stay detached from it at the moment, for fear of being dissapointed again. I keep telling myself, what will be will be, there is nothing I can do. Sorry if this seems like a very negative attitude, im just protecting my heart. I hope I can celebrate with you all very soon. Thankyou all so much for your support, you are all truly amazing and I couldnt do this without you .

Hi everyone,

Very down today, had a BFN. I tested cos I think I am actually 10dpo, might still be too early but I know I conceived this cycle and if implantation was on Sunday, something should be showing up by now. I have made an appointment to go to a dr to get some bloods done. I still suspect that I'm having trouble with implantation cos of my positive ANA (means autoimmune something but they've never found what). I have been crying all morning (ridiculous) so I suspect my other hormones are all ok. I have been putting off getting the blood tests done cos if it is something autoimmune then the only real treatment is steriods and I cant take them bc of my kidney problems. So that would mean the end of TTC for me, wasn't really ready to accept that yet. Guess we'll see how it goes.

KrystieLove and Jen - I am studying law. I started it 10 yrs ago and never finished it cos I was working full time and it was just too much. So I quit work and am now finishing it off PT and having time with DS. Really enjoying it, except exams of course!

KrystieLove - It does sound a bit confusing hey. Perhaps is it just from your mc and it is just taking longer than usual to go down. Should you maybe get another test now and see if it has gone completely? This must be so tough on you

Jen - Definately sounds like the pains I get the day after O! I quite often use a hot water bottle for relief. Yey, your in the TWW!!

Hey Betty - glad they finally gave you a new appointment!

Hi everyone else!!

Oh Issy, we posted at the same time. Just look after yourself, we are all thinking of you . Good luck with the next test when you decide to do it, hope its a really, really dark line.

Hi Ladies

Just a quick 'me' post to let you know that all went really well with my scan today. Nice little hb at 154 bpm and ob really happy with what he saw. I finally feel like I can relax - I know there's still a long way to go yet but I've had a good feeling from the very start. m/s is coming each afternoon and intensifies into the evening. I go to bed most nights feeling like I haven't eaten all day. It's weird but I love it?!?! Only 4 more weeks until we can share our secret with everyone else!

Will bbl to catch up on where you are all at. Sending you all lots of and

[issy02]

AJC--WOO HOO! Congrats on the scan and beautiful Now relax and enjoy being pg! So does this mean you'll be adding a ticker to your sig?


issy--You're amazingly strong! Do what you have to do to protect your heart, I'll silently continue sending you cheers, hoorays, and positive sticky vibes! I'm praying so hard for you--and can't wait to celebrate with you! Sending you big

[jen805]

bettyboop--Good luck with your appt. tomorrow! Hope you get some answers! Sending lots of positive vibes your way, and big hugs!

Toccara--Sorry to hear AF hasn't shown her ugly face. It figures that when you want her to show up, she takes her sweet time! Did you ever confirm that the hcg level had gone back down to 0? This is your first cycle since the m/c, right? Could just be that your body is holding on to some of that hcg, causing it to still feel pg--and that your cycle is just trying to get back to normal. My first cycle after was only 25 days, and have been progressively getting a little longer each cycle. One more question, have you had your follow up appt. with your doc yet? Praying you get some answers!


megsmum--Thanks for the info, at least now I can understand what some of you are talking about, instead of just faking it! lol... Good luck with the trigger shot and O! Got my fingers, arms, eyes, and toes crossed for you--sorry, no legs, it's O time for me!


Acria--Good luck for this cycle! Go March! Glad you decided to give it another shot!


Jodsan--Aww, sorry about your BFN! Could just still be too early--are you sure you conceived this cycle? Good luck with your appt. and your BT. Praying you get a surprise BFP!

[Jodsan]

Yey AJC, that has cheered me up immensely. Must be soooo cool seeing the little beating heart. Bet you cant wait to tell everyone now! Really happy for you that it's all going swimmingly. You kick youre feet up a bit now and enjoy it.

Jen - Yeah, the dr informed me that she thought it was too early even if with implantation on Sunday, so I'm still in with a shot. I definately felt implantation so that's why I'm so panicked that I have lost it again. She thinks I might be (bc of what I felt with implantation) so she tested for hcg as well so I will get the results on Saturday.

I just got AF a few minutes ago!!! I cant believe I'm happy about that lol ...I had follow ups and scan done and they took blood to make sure my levels where dropping I was just a little worried I'm going to start charting now to keep track of what my body is doing ...

And I wanna send prayers and love to all you ladies, this forums is the best! and congrats to all who got BFP I hope to be joining you soon...

OMG Jen - You are so funny! And you want to know the freaky thing? I actually checked your chart and got super excited before I even checked your posts! LOL! How amazing are those little red lines?! And it's guessed you ovulated pretty much when you knew from your bodies other signs that you had. That's so fantastic! It's so nice to know you can trust your bodies signals

I'll be back later for more persies, but I have to get ready for work. I realllllly don't want to go because I woke up really sick (then went back to bed until 2pm!). My chart is going to be all over the place because I have a fever. It was nearly half a degree higher than usual when I first woke up, but now my temp is nearly 2 degrees higher than my usual. That's probably bad yeah? It's nearly 38 degrees C. I've taken a couple of panadol to hopefully bring it down. I'm sure it's just a cold and am praying it's not the flu. I just want to be better so that I can DTD at the right time and I know it's bad to have a fever when you are preg or TTC...
