Trying to Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ June 2006

Hello ladies, :hello:

I feel like i am back from the dead... i spoke too soon... gastro well and truely hit on friday night lasting until yesterday, today seems foggy too.... Hope all is well...
Great to hear Nola that everything is progressing well with treacle.
Naomi, cant wait to see your photos..... My sister loves dressing up for any occassion, me well i am a bit more subdued!! (Reading between the lines.... chicken!!)
Jayne i hope all goes well for Jessica tomorrow... hopefully she wont need surgery poor little fairy. She is beautiful by the way. How was your facial, i have one coming up as a b'day gift.. cant wait.
Lisa i hope you catch up on some sleep... i hate when Dh snores, i end up sleeping in the spare room... which doesnt lead to dtd very often!!
Good luck catching the egg chelle and Shell, i am hoping to O later on this week and do the same....
Michelle, goodluck with scan this week.
Jan you are superwoman painting like that.. i struggle to even do a wall.. i start excited and motivated and then look around to see how much i have left and end up cracking it.
Tamara, i hope you have lots of fun over the next couple of months, realxing and not worrying about TTC, maybe you might just get a bfp when least expecting it??

hope i havent missed anyone, sorry if i have. Going to get some well earned sleep, little miss holly has been a bugger and getting up at 5am these days.. going to try something new tonight so here's hoping for some extra sleep... goodluck to all O'ing and testing speak to you all soon. :p

I need you all to pray for my Nanna, i got news today she is not doing well, to get another phone call later tonight saying if she goes back to hospital she might not make it out, I need my nanna to make it, my plan is for her to out live us all. I love my nanna to bits, please pray with me that she'll be ok, i cant do this, i cant say goodbye to her, i wont say goodbye to her, i need you to help me pray, your prays have helped so many other girls here on BB i need your help now.......Please

Naomi - sending lots of prayers you way. I hope your Nanna is doing ok.

Melinda and Nola - I can't believe you are 22ish and 9ish weeks respectively (not to mention where Bec is up to :eek: It seems just yesterday you were all announcing your BFP's) I'm just hoping the rest of us can quickly join the boat before it leaves the wharf.

Shellstar - I hop you have an excess of OPK's that get sold on ebay. I hope to head there with you too.

Jayne - I hope all is good with the test tomorrow and Jessica is OK.

Lisa - Happy Anniversary!! Mine is Thursday - it's a wonderful time of year to get married.

:hello: Hi to everyone else (all catch up and get to more personals soon)

Me - in the middle of the TWW. Not sure what is the symptoms from clomid and what is just me. Sore (.)(.) - mainly sensitive nipples and crampy abdo pain but then again these are the symptoms from being on the *drug*. Fingers crossed but also still in the reality of it could just be PMS. Oh well - 1 week to go till testing or AF :p

praying very hard for your nanna Naomi. Hugs to you and your family

Naomi praying very hard that your nanna will make it :hug:

Hi Girls, thankyou for your prayers - they are appreciated.
I had to let my Uncle who lives in Perth know via email last night, it was so hard, cos i know he cant just pop over iykwim
Still no news on how Nanna is, but if all is right we would have heard by now if things had gone wrong iykwim, but then again this is my family, so who knows!
I want my nanna to be around to see her only grandchild(that doesnt already have kids) have her great grandchild (which would make nanna's approx15-20 great grandchild), it sucks that Rick and I arent going to TTC this month, and i dont want to do it just for that reason, iykwim? My nanna really likes Ricki, actually she is in love with him, tries to slide the old tongue in when she kisses him and stuff LMAO.
I dont want my nanna to go, although she is 83, has 7 kids, approx 25 grand kids and approx 15-20 great grand kids (hard for me to remember them all, hence the approx part LOL), she has had also 4 husbands, one of which was my beloved Poppa, whom I never met, she has great friends (although some i wouldnt have chosen to be friends with lol), owns her home (i think), can save money like there is no tomorrow and be that thoughful she is willing to go without to help ANYONE out. She even offered, quite consintantly (sp??) actually for Ricki to borrow some money to help him start his own business, of which of course he turned down, but she hasnt given up on it!
She is 5 foot nothing with grey hair and a walking frame and/or stick (she uses both), yet is quite happy to go window shopping with you, just to get out of the house, she is an impulsive buyer too!! Which i suppose is good for who ever she goes out with LOL.

Im sorry about this all being about my Nanna, but i just needed to get it out there. I feel so guilty to, the last time i saw her was easter, i generally keep in touch via mum and nanna keeps in touch via mum aswell, and then when she is over mums place i will go and catch up with her. Mum said in the first ph call that i should give nanna a call and let her know im thinking of her, i thought about it and i didnt, i didnt want to get myself upset on the ph, and thought i would wait for her to get better in a couple of days and then go down there, i guessed wrong.....

Naomi, big prayers are going out for your Nanna - hope she pulls through and you get to share more time together. I lost my nan 2 yrs ago - still miss her more than ever - she was my best friend. So I pray with all my heart that you get to have yours around for a lot longer! And I think you should pick up the phone and have a chat - she probably really wants to hear your voice.

Michelle - happy anniversary to you for tomorrow - I just love this time of year.

I managed to get some sleep last night but now I have the flu and cant speak - my tonsils are the size of golf balls!! Off to dr later to see what is going...

Jayne - let us know how your little princess went today - thinking of you

Belinda - hope managed to get some sleep too!!

have a great day...

:hug: Big hugs to you Naomi, sending lots of prayers to your Nanna, hope she will be ok :hug:

Just thought i would let you all know - your prayers have worked, my nanna is doing better, she is sitting on her lounge, she has ate and drank today aswell. Things seem to be on the up and up!
Thankyou for all your prayers.
like Nola said the miracle of prayer!
take care

So gld to hear that Naomi, hope she continues to get better & better! :)

Hello All,

Naomi - So sorry to hear the problems with your Nan but so happy to hear that things are on the up for her. She sounds like a real fire-cracker.

Michelle71 - So only one week until testing, are you feeling confident?? How exciting.

Shell - Have you started at WW yet? I'll race ya! I have my weigh in tomorrow and I have absolutely gorged myself on chocolates with me stressing over Jess' test and having AF in town I am like the chocky-monster. I'm quite disgusted in myself. I'll have to starve myself until tomorrow night! LOL.

Nola - Such wonderful news about little Treacle. Do you know how good it is to read your posts, they are practically sparkling with magic. You are so excited and it shows in your post and I think it's gorgeous.

Lisa - Lets hope you got some shut-eye last night. I hate it when DH is sick and they gurgle and cough and croak all night. It gives me the willies!!! Oh yeah, if there was a POAS Anonymous group, I would have to go. I'm seriously terrible. I have promised myself no POAS until I am CD 50 this cycle. 48 days to go! The thing is, I'm too scared to buy a OPK cos they come with HPT's! LOL.

Bel - What little swifty have you pulled on Holly to get her to sleep in longer? Lets hope it's done the trick. I have the opposite with Jessica, she's a night owl and then sleeps in. I woke her up at 8:30 this morning to be at the Dr's for 9:20. She goes to bed around 8:30 cos Alan gets home late and he wouldn't see her otherwise and he leaves at 5am so there's no time for them to interact otherwise. I love the name Holly too. I have so many girls names put aside, I'll need 10 children! LOL.

Me - Well I"m CD3 today. I'm really, really, really going to try superhard this month. Even DH is really keen. He's usually happy to do the bd'ing but doesn't really put much thought into the reasoning, but he's said that this is our month. I think cos we have so many pg friends, it gets him a bit clucky too. Jessica's test was awful. One kidney looks to be fixed but the other kidney is still bad, but has improved. She has kidney reflux so when her bladder fills and she wees, urine goes up into her kidney's because the valve shutting off her bladder is strong enough. Have to wait til 28 June to see the doc. Lets hope she doesn't need the surgery but if he wants her on antibiotics for another 18 months, I'm not happy with that either. I just have to wait until I've seen the Paed before we go thinking about it further I guess. I must go, I need to mop the floors!

Love Jayne

Hey Jayne, Just been to WW, a bit heavier then i was expecting but hopefully i will get it off fast!!!
Sorry to hear your gorgeous jess had a bad day, on the up side atleast its improving, i will pray that she does not have to have the surgery, it seems to working alot around here lately.
Well off to have my last supper of fat!!!!

I checked out the pics of you Shell and you're stunning!!! If you don't mind me asking, you can pm me if you like, how much did they say you needed to lose? I have 25 damn kg to lose! I'm appalled!!!!!!!! I have lost 5.5kg only 20 of the buggers to go! LOL.

Hi Ladies,

Sorry I haven't been so active but had alot on at work. I am so crappying myself right now as I go for our first transfer tomorrow since lossing our little girl. I never thought I would do this again but I just feel this is the right time if there can ever be one.
So fingers crossed.

Hugs
Shazz.

Shazz, Sending you all the love in the world for tomorrows transfer may your tww be a speedy one with the best Positive result ever. Rest up.

Good morning,

Best of luck tomorrow Shazz, hoping it all goes well. Naomi i hope your nan is improving every day, prayers are still coming your way.
Michelle71, how are you feeling today? I hope the tww comes very fast for you.
Lisa when are you going to test? Not long to go now, is that right?? Shell and Jayne, good luck on you ww. Jayne glad you had some positive out of Jessica's testing as such. Hopefully the next app will go well too.
Me well no idea what is happening here, no symptoms of O but that doesnt count it out. Holly is sleeping in a bit more... not sure what i did honestly!!
Have a great day, i am auditioning for deal or no deal today - will be very funny.. My SIL needed an extra person to go with her!!!

Hi Gals,

Im feeling really sick today - got the flu from dh :(

Bel - Im almost at the end of tww - will be testing in 4 days but I have no syptoms of af or pg as yet. How did deal or no deal go? I had tix for family fued but dh and BIL chickened out so we didnt go.

Jayne - hope things keep getting better with Jess and fingers crossed that your dh is right and this is your month!! i havent bought any hpt or opk's - im really going to try no testing until tuesday.

Michelle 71 - good luck with your tww - hope it goes real quick with a bfp at the end!! Happy anniversary too, wishing you a wonderdul day.

Naomi - glad to hear nanna is doing well.

Shazz - wishing you loads of luck on the transfer - i'll be praying for news of a pg from you soon...

Everyone else - a big hello and best of luck to all ttc in June!

Well hello lovelies,

Good news I have 2 embrio's on board!!!!!!!!! Yes my frostie bubbies survived thaw and I still have the third one on ice, so they only pulled 2 out of the freezer ....YAY!!!
My mum came in with me and was totaly amazed to see the embrio's on the screen and ended up having a bit of a convo with my RE about ivf lol. She was fasinated by the whole thing including when we got home she told me to look after her grand kids lol. It turned out to be a little bit more expensive than we expected with mum coping a fine for parking in a permit zone which we didnt realised.

I know this may sound strange to some but since starting this cycle I have been asking ~Chloe~ to look over us and I believe she is. When I got home I asked her to look over her bro/sis through this cycle. Beta is the 22nd June.

Thankyou for all the support, not having Nath here was strange but I know I had alot of support!!

Hugs
Shazz.
xx

Shazz good luck with everything.

Jayne keep them names coming. How are you doing ?

Naomi hope you are okay and that your Nanna is doing much better.

Love to you all

Good Evening Lovely Ladies,

Shazz - Massive congratulations and mountains of :stickyvibesboy: coming your way. How exciting and I'm soooooo with your mum, I would have been a walking question book asking the doctor everything. It IS fascinating. So they transferred two bubba's and one is *kept on ice*? Wow, I"m going to ask you a zillion and one questions! Right now you have two bubba's making a home in your tummy! How cool!!! I want to know every little niggle and wiggle you feel from now on ok? LOL.

Michelle - My name for today......... hmmmmmmmmm.......... I'm having trouble with the boy's names atm so we'll go for a girl's name today which will be ......... Danielle. I have a wonderful gf named Danielle. It's a nice name.

Lisa - Tuesday is really not that far away you know! Are you feeling confident? I'm hoping it's our month too. I have been taking my chastetree tablets from the health store. Apparently they aid with getting your cycle on track and they worked a treat falling pg with Jessica. Anything is worth a try. So AF is due on Tuesday? I sooooooo hope she's buggered off from your life for the next 9 months.

Bel - How did Deal or No Deal go? That must have been exciting! Were there heaps of people there? How is Little Miss Holly?

Kazz - How are you my lovely lady? Are you going to be officially joining us in this thread in the near future? YKWIM. How are your two beautiful boys? I forgot to ask before, did the feeding issues sort themselves out? I hope so. You're so lucky to have such a placid little man sleeping through the night already.

Shell - How are you babe? How is WW? I counted the points for a whole two weeks and now I don't write it down anymore. Naughty naughty. I really should start again. How is the OPK's going? You know, 100 OPK's is a whole lot of POAS!!! LOL.

Me - Well I have lost 0.6kg this week. I was pretty happy with that considering the disgusting amounts of chocolate and wine that have been consumed. I am CD4 and will start my temping again in the morning cos AF is starting to pack her bags and head off. Jessica has very red nether regions today after the catheter yesterday so nappy changing time isn't fun and I can't let her run around with no nappy on cos it's wayyy too cold. Well I must go, The Amazing Race starts in a few minutes and I don't want to miss any of it! LOL.

Love Jayne

hi ladies,

Jayne - mmm i might try that chasetree and see how it goes next month. Im feeling up and down atm - im getting some af symptoms but also p'ing v frequently and have tender(.)(.) But that could all be part of af so I dont want to get my hopes up..Im desperately trying to avoid buying hpt - but knowing me by monday ill be poas!

Hope jess's redness clears up soon - poor little bugger.. oh and you'll be getting ready to bd soon!!

Michelle - hope your keeping yourself occupied during your tww.

Bel - how are you going? hope D or no D went well... have you o'd yet? Hope you got some good bd'ing happening! :p

Shazz - i'll be praying for you love - hope those little ones stick and hang around for the next 9 months..

I'll be offline until tuesday (my SIL borowwed the laptop and im not at work until tues), so good luck to all BD'ing on the weekend and to anyone testing - hope you come back with a nice BFP!

:bluedust: :bluedust:

have a great weekend,
Lisa

Hey Girls (SPRINKLE SPRINKLE)

Have a fab long weekend. I will catch up with you all on Tuesday.

Love to you all.
oxoxox xoxoxo

Hello on this sunny cold friday arvo.... man is it cold here in melb...

Deal or No Deal was a total waste of my time. Turned up with i think maybe 150 people?? And filled in a page back and front - wanted to know stupid things like: What is the hardest decision i have ever made?? How should i know?? Anyway then had my photo taken and had a "interview" with a rude guy - all in all, lasted half hour all up.. drove in peak hour traffic for nothing!!!
Shazz i hope everything works well with the little ones... what is beta btw?
Lisa, have great weekend, not sure if O'd. Actually think i missed the boat by 4 days, as think i o'd around sunday when i had gastro and only bd twice this week.. so who knows... i dont want to chart or do the opk thing yet.. may try it when i understand it more!! How are you feeling? Any signs??
Jayne, well done on the weight loss. Any amount is a good amount i think...
Michelle71 - how are you going?

Better be off, housework to do.... have great weekend, see you next week...

hey nola, how are you? you must have posted whilst i was writting!!
Hope all is well

Hi There Lovely ladies,

Hope your all enjoying friday! especially on the eve of a long weekend!!

Jayne, Yes ww is going well, im only the 2nd day of it, this week is going to drag the tww! to answer your Q from before they say i should lose 20 kilos for my height, im a bit of a short ar$e, but thats to get to 52 which i don't think i have been since i was 10 and is unlikely to happen again so i will be happy losing 10 at the moment. What is chasetree?? Im taking Vitex as of this cycle is it the same?

Shazz, Thats wonderful news for you, I will have my fingers & toes very tightly crossed for you until the 22nd!!:crossfingers:

Belinda, sorry you wasted your time with deal or no deal, I assume its the show you are talking about? I must have missed something!!:p

Lisa, I hope on your return to us on tuesday, you front up with a BIG FAT BFP, if that makes any sense to you!! :)

Michelle, How did your scan go???


Hi to all my other lovely friends


Me....Well i have started using the opk's, i have had EWCM this morning, is it possible to have ewcm but a negative opk??? its all a bit confusing to me.
DH is having the whole of next week off so there will be plenty of time to get lots of BD in, while Hayleigh is napping of course!!! :eek:


Hope you all have a fab long weekend!!

thanks Michelle,

good luck with the opk's - I have no idea on them aswell - I dont chart, temp or do anything special I just bd when I think i may be o'ing!!

Yes that makes sense, i hope so too - but im not feeling too positive about it. dont want to get my hopes up IYKWIM?

well good luck with the b'ding - hope you catch that eggy!

i'll report back on my results, either way on tuesday

have a great weekend lovey
Lisa

just popping my head in to say hi and wish everyone best of luck !!!
im still here sort of though i just dont know what my body is doing im now on CD 35 ( my last cycle was 20) still no sign of af and -ive pg tests :eek: idk i guess it will all happen when it is supposed to , jades two best friends whos baby was due two weeks before our angel baby had her baby by planned c cection yesterday jade has gone out to visit them in hospital and well im feeling kind of jealous ... T is having his secong B'Day on june 27th i feel so excited it may as well be my birthday

hi guys,
how are you all?? quick question before i head off for weekend.... what does it mean when i have a lot of blue veins on my chest and upper arms?? I sort of remember something similar with holly but that wasnt until well into the pregnancy? Would they still be there from breastfeeding?? I stopped last November??
Have a great one.

oooh Belinda, where are you in your cycle??? I can't keep up with everyone, I know that when i fell pregnant with Hayleigh it was my first symptom!!!!

Belinda, Have to agree with Michelle, me too. Good luck, And yeah were is eveyone with there cycles. There are no tickers......?????

Heya all!! Know what that is like jess, so hard not to feel jealous. My SIL has her 4 week old baby and I cant help feel jealous, as I was well pregnant b4 her, and I miscarrried, and I cant help think about it when I see her bub.
OOh belinda, sounds promising, crossin fingas for you
Michelle it is very possible to EWCM, and not show a positive, but it could be very close!!! so treat it like it is IYKWIM :)
Well me, cd13, but I feel like I have O on day11, had cramping and EWCM, so dont know what to make of it all. Soooo just trying to cover bases, but If I dont O until cd16, its gunna be alot oh days of tryin...sigh, the things we have to do...:) mind you the trying is fun, its the 2ww thats the horrible part ah..
well the all blacks are playing here in the waikato 2night against the green shirts so very busy in out neck ov the woods.
Take care one and all, lots happening at different stages this month, so an exciting start by Lisa this month, its youturn girl, bring us the BFP and then we will all follow on....
Hey Nola hope life is treating u good, your ticker is moving along very fast.. wow nearly 10 weeks all ready!!! WTG
cheers for now XXXX

OMGosh... sorry bout that... dont now how 2 got there!!!!!!

Hi Jayne, lol your so cute!! If you have any questions pls ask away.

Bel - Beta is blood test.

Shazz.

Hi girls
Just quickly popping in over the long weekend. Busy week with the wedding anniversary (thank you to those who wished us a lovely day). I worked but my beautiful DH made slow cooked lamb shanks and garlic parmesan creamy mash. OMG it was soooooo good!!! Then we went to Split Enz last night - fabulous (although the average made me feel old!!)

A few more days to go in the TWW. I have so far resisted POAS (although I really just want to know what the answer is). Cramping pelvic pain that could just be AF on the way so we'll have to wait and see. But I have had nausea and tiredness for the past few days so maybe?!?!

Hope you all have a lovely long weekend (for those who have it) and I'll get back to do personals soon.

Michelle - Soooooo hoping that you are going to get a BFP very soon! Enjoy your weekend.
Love Jayne

Goodluck Michelle hope you get a BFP soon.

Broke the deal and POAS (mainly because of the AF cramping type pains that got worse) and got a BFN. Due to bleed tomorrow by cycle dates so at least I am prepared I guess. Just a little over the TTC rollercoaster. Even DH said he felt good about this month and he is never positive (verbally) about our efforts.

So I guess it is another month on clomid (2 more to go), back to the gym and look at making that IVF appointment I dread so much. Jayne and Michelle - thank you for the positive thoughts. I hope to get the BFP soon too.

Sorry to hear you got a BFN Michelle. If AF is on her way i hope her stay will be short and nice for you. Still wishing you lots of luck for this month.

Awww Michelle, so sorry to hear its a BFN......at the moment, but its not over until aunt flo sings!!! i will be praying for you hun :pray:

Just a quick one from me, very busy, My opk's are getting darker every couple of hours so the BD'g has begun as of this morning, so looks like im going to O at the right time this month, so very excited!!!

Hope you are all having a Fab weekend!!
Love to all

Hi Shell - Good luck with the bdfest. I bet that your DH is thanking his lucky stars atm!! LOL.

Michelle - sorry to hear about the BFN. I thought you weren't due for AF until Tuesday? Perhaps it's just a bit too early. Nice to hear your DH is being positive too. It's nice to know you're not the only one who worries yourself sick about O'ing and stuff.

Hope everybody else is having a great weekend. I'm pooped. Jessica was up allllllllllll night with the sniffles and coughs. She has snot running everywhere. Yuck! I couldn't even take my temp cos I didn't get 3 hours sleep in a row! LOL. Every hour on the hour she woke. She was actually grizzling in her sleep. Talk to you all tomorrow.

Love Jayne
