Trying to Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ June/July 2010

Iona - LMAO... Ok, so I have baby brain. So what? :redface: I must say though... CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!! So happy for you, hun! I'm kidnapping you to the PAML thread as soon as we're both brave enough. (I have no idea how I missed your post... and the others. What the fudge...) Don't feel like a twat about your last experience.. there's no shanme in wanting to know what's going on in there! Best of luck, what excellent news. Will you be my belly buddy??? :D (I feel like I just asked you to 'go steady')

Dory - Congrats on reaching 30 weeks. FX this bubby is a keeper, you've been through so much. I'm so hopeful for you. Best of luck, hun. Stay positive! You've insipred me to do so. :D

Kellie - So sorry AF showed. Damn her to hell. Eat as much chocolate as you want. heck, dip it in peanut butter if you must. It's SO ok to feel angry at your body. I hope you get your bfp soon, hun. So so sorry. :(

forshelby, of course we can be belly buddies and you can be my PIG so let's get thru the next 8 weeks!!!

Iona- OMG CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!! :D:D:D My stuff up wishing u luck for testing must have worked!!!!! U lucky ducky!! :) Now relax!!!

Kellbell- Im so sorry :( i bet i wont be too far behind u. Arent u kinda happy af turned up before u tested?? or maybe u dont hate hpts as much as i do!! I HATE THEM!! Only when they have 1 line tho haha. Ur right tho.. be grateful ur body is spot on with its cycles! Mine clearly isnt! EAT LOTS OF CHOCOLATE!!!! Its the best when ur feeling down. Im planning to have a few drinks with a girlfriend on sat nite if af comes in the next few days. Maybe u need to let ur hair down for a few hrs too??! I hope ur ok and ur cramps arent too bad. xxx

Damprye- OMG! Ur story!! haha. U sure are pretty game! I dont think i wld trust my dh! Is ur bleeding starting to settle down?? Hope so! Ready for the big bd session!

Forshelby- I think u shld get a new doctor (ok ok give him 1 more chance!) i reckon u need to push for an early scan tho.. that will ease ur mind a little i reckon.. and push for another blood test. Seeing ur hcg levels go up will make u feel better too. I am going to get tested for everything i think! Im so much more knowledgable now! If u end up going to a new doctor maybe even push for a progesterone level bt.. i have read up on so much stuff that if ur progesterone is too low it really increases ur chance of m/c.. but a lot of ppl dont know this and a lot of drs just ignore it.. if ur progesterone is too low u can take pills or use pessaries.. so its fixable!
Anyway not trying to put anymore bad thoughts in ur head.. u are going to be fine.. i know it!!!! :)

Dory- 30 WEEKS!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I am so happy for u.. that is huge! Are u feeling him/her moving around a lot now??

Alice-Thats strange ur cycle is 26 days now.. are u on maca as well as everything else?? Thats meant to help give u a spot on 28 day cycle. Aug is just around the corner.. yay! u can finally get the ball rolling! Is ur dh understanding with ur edd?? Mine isnt really.. he is quite sensitive towards a lot of other things.. but i think he just lives in the here and now.. never really looked into the future when we were pg.. where as i had our whole future mapped out! I bet on the day it hits him tho. It is really good that things will be rolling when the day comes around for u.. help u to feel a bit more optimistic. Im praying to god im pg by then or i dont know how i'll cope! xx

Possum- Hope ur appointment goes well.. or was it today?? sorry just scanned back and wasnt looking at days. I hope ur mc is complete and ur body can start tring to get back into a normal cycle again. What medication did ur ob. tell u that u cld maybe take for ur next pregnancy?? Hope ur ok xx

Stoked- Hi and welcome. Like the other girls said follow ur heart.. u will know when its right to start trying again. We are all here for u xxx

Bons- When are u off to ur parents house?? How many days til the bd bonanza begins?? Are u all ready??? :)

Hello to anyone else i have missed.. Hope ur all doing alright.

AFM- Well it shld be cycle day 1 for me.. but its not.. YAY!!! Everyday that af isnt here is a good day! :) I have been getting little weird twinges sometimes on the lower right part of my tummy and sometimes just different little spots.. it cld be af coming. I do remember when i was pg last time.. i was up to like day 40 and hadnt tested and kept saying to dh nope af is coming.. i can feel it!! But it never did.. so i hope its like that this time!! Not feeling too positive tho.

xxx

my cycle is all over the place i went from around 34 days to 26 im so confused :shakehead:
but so so glad i didn't have to look at that single line this morning i hate them too.
My DP was upset too hes really clucky :-(

Reet i hope your up the duff and the evil witch AF stays away its always comes in three i bet your the 3rd ;)

I polished off half a block and icecream too made me feel heaps better hehe

Im off to bed with my hot pack what a crappy day

Oh yeah this was a shorter cycle wasnt it for u kell.. U werent due for another few days.. its so hard to remember everything in this place! haha or maybe its just my baby brain WISHING!! Maybe try Maca??? I hope tomoro is a bit brighter xxx

Yeah theirs a lot going on in here bit hard to remember everything lol
Yep had three long cycles average about 34 days then it comes day 26 out of nowhere had no cramps moodiness or anything i normally get really weird. FF had me ovulating early this time i thought it might be wrong but is 14 days from that -if that makes sense i think im rambling

What is Maca ive never heard of it?:redface:

Wow ff really knows!! maybe i shld give it a go..

Maca is just a natural powder.. it comes from some tree root.. if ur body is lacking a certain hormone it boosts it up.. its really good with helping to give u a 28 day cycle. Im not sure if u were in here when kitfaerie was but she swears by it.. she thanks it for getting pg. Do u have a health store close by?? Maybe duck in and have a chat to them. I was on it last month cos i wanted af to hurry up.. i hadnt had af ever since m/c in feb and was dying to get the ball rolling.. i got af 5 days later.. not sure if that was pure coincidence or not tho.. the naturopath said to stay on it until i fell pg.. i didnt tho cos i started on clomid again and didnt want to mix the 2.. i have been meaning to start it back up again now just incase af is on her way.. hurry it up a bit!! But it is a bit yucky to drink so ive been putting it off haha. It also gives u energy so thats a bonus!! :)

Thanks for the welcome guys.

Congratulations to Iona and Forshelby!

Goodluck to everyone else.

Being referred to a specialist, saw the doctor today and had some blood tests to get the ball rolling...
Look forward to getting to know you all xx

OMG it went from being so quiet that I felt like I was hogging the thread to not being able to keep up lol

CONGRATS IONA :D !!!!!!

I will try and catch up on everyone else soon enough but not right now, thinking of you all though :)

AFM- After only one day of flow AF has gone back to spotting lol horray if it means she will be gone tomorrow :D

kell - i have been taking vit b6 this month - I found that it made my CM more distinctive and I was also taking it to lengthen my LP as it was only 11 days but ur LP seems to be spot on!!

damprye - oh I hope AF was just the one full on day for you

Reet - here's to no af, you are so good at not testing - I know in Jan I was like that I didn't test until I was CD30 something only because I wasn't sure!!

Stoked - I hope you get some answers real soon, it's hard xoxox

Hi to everyone else

Thanks girls for the congrats - just taking one day at a time, did another HPT this morn and the line is still darker. Things are starting to taste funny and my breakfast nearly came back up!!!

Well i THINK af might be on her way.. after bding last nite as i was 'cleaning up' i noticed some pinkish stuff mixed in with all the other stuff (TMI!!!) Havent had any this morning.. but somehow i think shes defintely on her way. I havent felt pg at all like some of u ladies. Dammit!!!

Dampyre look like were cycle buddies this month :D

Reet - sorry to hear AF is coming big hugs

She is here in full force today bleh :(

WooHoo Iona Big Congratulations!!!!!! Soooooo Happy For you! Try and relax, FX for a sticky Baby! xxx
Kellbell and Dampyre - Yay you two will be having a busy sausage sizzle this month! Hope AF is being a little kinder and leaves quickly xxx
Reet - You are one patient Woman! I think I would explode not testing now! FX is a BFP for you Hun xxx
Alice - Yay, So happy you can start IVF again, and maybe you will get an early christmas present in the form of a BFP xxxx
Dory - 10 weeks to go!!!! Hang in there little bubba!
Matthewsmum - Are you lurking Hun? Is everything ok? Thinking of you xxx
Stoked - Good luck with the specialists, Hope you get some encourageing and postive results soon xxx
AFM - Let the BDing begin :p DH is very excited to be getting some! TMI - Does anyone else really dislike their Dp/Dh's stuff? I thought i was going to be sick last night smelling it, really not good for someone ttc :rolleyes:
We are heading to my parents on monday after DH finishes work, then heading to his parents house on tues for 2 nights...I really dont like going there....its dust and mould central, not good when Im a clean freak, I feel like I need to sit on my hands since SIL and I upset them cleaning things last time we were there.

xxxx

Reet - All good ideas, I'll just see how this next appt pans out. Sorry about the pink stuff. DP and I call that 'pinking'. I really hope it's implantation pinking.. hehe

Stoked - Thanks hun. I hope your bt's give you good results. Let us know!

Iona - yay for a darker line! I also poas this morning for reassurance, since my symptoms are so vague and boring, and the line was also darker for me. Yay for that. I'm so happy for you... but I wish MY stupid breakfast would come back up. LOL what a strange thing to want.

Bons - your IL's house sounds like my mum's house. Oh the horror. And hooray for the bd bonanza! I can't say DP's stuff is unpleasant for me. I don't exactly LOVE the smell, but it's quite faint, so if I don't think about it, I don't really notice.

AFM, OK. Nobody freak out. But... I kinda fell on the stairs at work. I'm ok, I didn't hurt anything, but the workplace health and safety guy went all corporate on my ass... LOL. They took me to the doctor (why I don't know) and the doc felt my belly, asked how far I was, and said to go home and put my feet up. It was all really just embarrassing! I can't believe I fell over in FLATS! I wear heels every day of my life, and the day I switch, I fall on my bum. Damnit! So anyway, I feel fine. No bleeding, nothing. I caught myself really well and just tapped my bum on the stairs... I really jerked my foot the worst. Of course someone had to see me fall though... then I freaked out and started crying because of the baby...... I just panicked I suppose. What a big drama. Oh and the cat's out of the bag. While taking my report, the safety officer says (LOUDLY) 'well with you being PREGNANT we really should get you to a doctor'. I blushed when everyone looked at me. So not the way I wanted to make an announcement.. but at least I don't have to make the decision anymore of when to tell.

Sorry for all the me-ness.. just a bit freaked out after everything. Going to bed now for a well earned nap. Take care lovelies..

forshelby - so glad that you and bub are ok!! haha at falling over with flats on, prob cause you're so use to wearing heels that you thought wearing flats you didn't have to lift your foot as high!!!

Bons- Hmm there are times that i cant stand the smell of dhs stuff.. but theres other times when i dont notice it. I guess when its not as messy its fine.. but if its kinda everywhere it can be a bit awful! Its funny i have jumped in the shower afterwards and washed myself but cant have realised i had some smeared on my leg or back or something (it can get messy!! haha) and not soaped that particular area.. about 15 mins later is has gone all dry and crusty and gross! I have noticed when ive been out shopping or something.. haha yuck! U ever noticed that??! I also think there stuff can get a bit more potent with different foods they eat.. cabbage is apparently a bad one! Pineapple is meant to be great tho! Maybe tell him he has to eat half a pineapple a day! :)

Forshelby- Glad u and bubba are ok. Pity they didnt send u in for an early scan!! u shld have freaked out a little more! haha :)

Iona- Yay for ur symptoms and the darker line!! :) is ur dp over the moon??! :)

Kellbell- Hope ur having a relaxing day today and ur not getting much cramping.

Damprye- Yay for af almost leaving u alone! That was quick! :)

Afm- Well still no bleeding.. been fishing for it and nothing.. just kind of whitish stuff (TMI!) if i O'ed on day 17 then it shld be due tomoro. I guess i just keep waiting to see! And theres no part of me that wld want to test right now.. I think im feeling that strongly that its going to be a bfn that theres no point feeling the heartbreak of only seeing one line. No more bd'ing for the next couple days.. dont want to stir anything else up!! :)

Oh Reet, DP is excited but doesn't want to get too excited as every time that I have told him something goes wrong but I'm hoping nothing this time as one thing that is different from the two pregnancies this year as this time I had no sort of spotting at all, so hoping that this is a good sign.

Now, I think I should pressure you to TEST hehehe so TEST girl TEST, creamy CM looks like a good sign ;) xoxox

Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to start my journey with all you lovely ppls in here, I have a 4y.o DD and sadly DF and I had our 1st MC in early April we have now decided to TTC again this month. AF is due in the next couple of days and I'm praying she is a no show for us. I have recorded higher temps now for 1 week and have been getting a few minor headaches through the afternoons and getting a weird taste in my mouth. The last 2 days my CM has been a creamy colour and I'm usually dry at this time before AF, haven't had any pimple break outs at all with this cycle and I always do unless I'm UTD. All my body signs are pointing to being pregnant but I'm trying not to get my hopes up as I don't want to be let down if AF arrives. I'm hoping and got my FX that this time will be our time for a very sticky bub please. Any advice or words of wisdom will be appreciated.
Thanks
Helen

hi girls,

im delurking to say hi and say a few things

iona: congrats to you, wow so you fell straight away the next cycle, im jealous especially because i haven't even had a cycle since them m/c in may, im on day 66 since that bleeding happened.

forshelby: good to hear you are ok after your fall, if it makes you feel any better i fell in both my pregnancies for my living children, they are very well protected at this stage.

bons and alice: good to hear you will soon be both on your way again through ivf

Dory: lovely to see your ticker, i hope the remaining time flies by for you

Reet: i hope you have good news in the next few days


clairesmummy: hi and welcome

damprye: is your dp banned from using you as a test person from now on ?

hi to everyone else


afm: not much to report really, we are all sick (the universe is really kicking me while im down) and as i said no cycle happening here, im seeing the ivf dr next week so hopefully i can get a plan happening

Iona - Yeah, I think the flats threw me off a bit tbh! I so rarely wear them.... My fairy godmother was great though, made me laugh and said 'omg, have you got a crack in your bum?' LOL.... I said I did. It's totally understandable for your DP to be afraid to get too excited... I feel that exact way myself. But with every passing day, I'm growing slightly more confident. I'd also like to join you in egging Reet on...... :D

Bons - Dr said if I have any pain or bleeding he will send me for an early scan (company dr not my own insentitive one..) but it's too early to see a hb so I would like to wait a little while. I've been thinking about it and it probably wouldn't be the end of the world to wait until I'm 12 weeks. I also can't help but notice no af for you yet..... EXCITING! When are you testing?

Reet - TEST WOMAN!!!! Lol, I'm so devilish. I'm going to bug you to no end.. hehehe. Creamy cm is a big one if you're normally dry this time of month. (TMI warning) I have LOADS now, and I find it very comforting in a strange way. Let us know if you caved and tested.

Clairesmummy - Welcome :D. Your symptoms sound good. When do you plan to test? I hope you get your sticky bub this time.

Minnie - Thanks. :) Doc said the same thing, that baby is very cushioned at this stage. I really didn't fall very hard either.... people just made a huge deal out of it, which i guess is better than ignoring it altogether. That would make me feel worse. Feeling heaps better after a big sleep though. Muuuuch calmer. Sorry to hear you're sick, that really sucks. I hope your IVF appointment goes well and you can get something happening! Maybe macca would help your cycle to return? (I have never used it, but heard it's good... talk to Reet.)

Clairesmummy – welcome to the tcc rollercoaster. Hoping your stay here is very brief and AF doesn't show up.... sorry to hear about your loss.

Reet – hoping that AF doesn't show up.... it took me a while to work out what you meant.... sneaky. I seem to have a disco baby, quite a big mover and shaker. Getting jiggy with it.. maybe I shouldn't have said that so much? LOL. But truly it's the best reassurance for me, so I am grateful despite the personal discomfort at times.

Kellbell – let it out girl.... sorry af arrived. And what chocolate has superpowers at the mo? I always love to hear about food.....

Forshelby – thanks sweetie – you have helped me be positive when I've been glum. You take care of yourself. Pity you WHS guy wasn't more “careful” but like you said at least you don't have to worry about when to tell people now... take care sweetie.

Bons – let the sizzle begin. You go girl. I vary in my response to semen. Sometimes the smell/taste/looks and thought of it makes me gag and at others times not. I like the theory that foods can change the smell/taste. So probably can state of health, so if he's getting a cold, I can smell the difference in his breath and taste the difference in his saliva, even before he realises. It's kind of good in a way, I notice the change, and DH takes better care of himself and often doesn't get sick.

I am laughing at the thought of the TCC'ers having a “something about mary”, semen moment! Luckily now there is so much hair product on the market that people may not assume the worst.....

Ionna – sorry sweetie – but I am loving the fact your breaky almost made a reappearance. About telling your DP, it's not the telling him that's been the catalyst, but I understand why you'd think that... my advice? don't do this on your own.... if you tell him then you can share the joys and lows ( ie m/s).

Minnie – hope your appointment next week brings some answers.... sorry that you're all sick. Get better real quick.

Alice – good to hear from you....not too much longer.....

Stoked – what sort of specialist?

Thanks for the welcome Minnie, Forshelby and Dory, I'm not real good with remembering names but I will try my best to keep up with everyones stories in here, bear with me I won't forget anybody or ignore any comments on purpose I promise.....lol.......so be patient with me please...lol...
Forshelby: Not sure when to test, sometimes I think ignorance ends in bliss, with my DD I never had my first test done until I was about 12 weeks UTD.....lol....last time I tested the second day I missed AF and that ended in tears with my MC. So I'm not sure if I want to do the test this time around just yet....I want to know but on the other hand I don't want to know, if you know what I mean.
I wish all you the best with your journeys in here and look forward to reading your thoughts in here as well.

HI clairesmummy - so sorry to hear of your loss, hoping that your ttc journey is a quick one and that you get your BFP real soon (when are you going to test??)

minnie - hi sweety, sorry to hear that you are all sick. we were like that a couple of months ago, it's crap!!

forshelby - how are you feeling after your rested day??

bons - let the bonanza begin!! hope you have a some what relaxing time away

dory - oh i can't believe you have less than 10 weeks to go now...let the excitement begin xoxo

AFM - not much to report except I have had a sore lower back but I think that is from the way I was sitting on mum's couch while doing DP's bookkeeping!!!

Hi Iona,
Not sure if I want to do the test yet......AF is due this week end.........I'm scared but I'm excited mainly worried though that I'm looking and feeling for signs that are not really there if you can understand my double dutch on that one. I guess I'm hoping that the things i'm feeling and seeing aren't just my head playing tricks on me....

oh I totally understand clairesmummy, hoping that AF stays away for you!!

Thank you Iona, I'm hoping she stays away as well....lol.....
My B's are starting to get pretty tender at the moment could be a sign of AF on her way but they don't usually get tender at all with AF and I'm pretty suspiscious about having high temps as well definately not a normal AF month for me this month. But I'm counting the days down until she is due on Sunday/Monday.

Clairesmummy - Sore bbs is a really big sign, especially if it isn't normal for you. It might as well be neon and flashing.. hehe. I really hope this is it. I also understand what it's like wanting to know but being afraid of seing only one line. At the end of the day, you need to do what's right for you. If you'd rather wait a while after you're late, do so. Me, I'm a POAS kinda girl though.. lol. I just HAVE to know. I'd told myself this cycle was not the one, but then O'd late, and managed to get in a sneaky morning bd before work on the exact day I O'd. It was weird. On one hand I didn't want to get my hopes up, but from then on (and especially for the rest of that particular day) I felt so good it wasn't even funny. I can't explain it, I just felt content, and thought we really might have done it this time. Turns out we did.

Anyhoo, enough about me.. I'm just rambling now. :D Give those bbs a squeeze for us, girl! Hahaha....

Iona - Yep, feeling very rested after my relaxy afternoon. I tucked myself in with the furbabies, and had a really nice nap. Dog in my 'kneepit' and Cat in my 'elbowpit'. Soooo cute. I feel like a total goose though for crying like a sissy girl. I just freaked right out when I thought how much worse it could've been, and that I could've fallen down the stairs which are conveniently coated in metal checkerplate. Mmm.. safe. :o I'm investing in some ballet flats this weekend!!!!!! Really grippy ones with so much rubber I'll be doing foot burnouts wherever I go. LOL. How are you feeling? How are the symptoms progressing? I was excited to feel a bit off colour this evening. I seem to feel crappy right around dinner time, and in the middle of the night.

Oh, stick babies, STICK!

Everyone else... hi, and babydust of course.

PS. Where has craftymummy gone??

Just a quickie then i will do persies!
Forshelby- i think u confused me with bons earlier in the arvo in ur post.. just wanted to let u know and bons know so that theres no confusion!! :)

Ok its been a bit busy in here tonight!! :)

Forshelby and Iona- NO! Im not testing!!! :lol: U cant beg me to test just cos thats what i did to u! U guys had symptoms.. I dont!! I am going to be strong! I even went to woolies the other day and made a little plan with myself.. if the hpts were on special i wld buy one.. i walked past them and alas! they were! but... i looked at them and very quickly walked away.. i just cldnt do it.. especially since i think af shld be due tomoro (even tho im not entirely sure). I will defintely be letting u guys know as soon as i test.. or af shows! (which i think she will.. no positive thinking from me this month!)

Clairesmummy- Oh ur symptoms sound promising!! Please keep us posted on the outcome. I hope its a bfp! keep the trend going in here! :)

Dory- Love that u mentioned the taste of dhs semen! haha i was so going to say something about that side of things but got embarrassed! And it sounds like u know ur dh SO well! U know him better then he knows himself! haha.. thats usually the way tho.. oh well i think i know dh better then he knows himself!

Minnie- AF didnt come for me until a month ago and i had m/c in feb.. my progesterone levels were way too low. I went to the gyno when it had been 9 weeks since m/c.. he said that was way too long to wait.. he put me on progesterone pills.. that messed me up a bit.. gave me a bit of spotting but nothing else. But yeah i think u shld try Maca! Have u heard of it?? Its worth a try!

AFM- I dont think any of u guys were in here when i first joined and told 'my story' Just a quick version.. 3 weeks after i had my m/c my 22 yr old little sister found out she was pg.. she had been vomiting for a couple weeks but thought it was just some bug.. I was telling her she shld just test to be on the safe side.. Finally after a few days she did while i was on the phone to her.. it came back positive. I was sad for myself but at the same time I was telling her that i was so excited for them.. which i truly was. She wasnt sure what to think, she had only been with her b/f at that stage for about a year and she still felt like she had a lot of partying etc to do... hes 30 so i thought he was more then ready tho. I spent the next week basically telling her that the best thing to do wld be to keep it.. i cldnt see any other option. They sadly decided to have an abortion. OMG I was devastated! I cldnt believe it. She stopped ringing me for a week cos she knew how much it wld affect me and probly that i wld try changing her mind. I know that its not good bringing a baby into this world when the parents arent ready or truly wanting it yet.. but with what i had gone thru i just cldnt imagine throwing a little baby away. Anyway (sorry this has turned out to be loong!) sitting with my sis and my mum today i was saying how i cant wait til i am a vomiting mess etc.. and all she kept saying was 'oh no marita its awful.. its the worse feeling in the world.. u never want to go thru that.. trust me when u are pg u will hate it! It was so frustrating to hear her go on like that!! I wont hate it!! I will LOVE every moment of it!! ...even if i cant get out of bed! I dont believe she was trying to upset me or anything.. she was just telling me the truth from her perspective. I just cant believe how things pan out.. life can be SO unfair!!
Anyway sorry for my long ramble!! :)

Im planning to go and have a few drinks with a couple girlfriends on saturday nite.. ofcourse it wont be happening if i AM pg.. so if af hasnt arrived by sat i will test! So dont stress girls.. we will all know in 2 days what is going on in my body!!! :) :) Please body be good to me.. please please please!!!

hi reet,

i have heard of maca but don't really know anything about it, is it similar to vitex (not that i know anything about that either, its just i have heard about it in regards to cycles) ?

Iona CONGRATULATIONS! Woot! Woot! That darker line sounds very good.
Dory: oh 30 weeks is such a wonderful big round number. 10 weeks to go sounds so soon. Counting down to hear your good news.
Kellbell: sorry AF arrived. Glad the chocolate and ice cream remedy worked!
Alice: so excited that your next cycle will be coming up in the next few weeks. Really hope this is the lucky one. It feels like it should be when you've worked so hard to make your body ready for baby.
Reet: You have been very brave to offer that support to your sister when it is so hard to get your head around her choosing to end a pg that you would be grateful to have. It's a mixed up world that lets her get pg while you have troubles. Hope this month is your month.
Damprye, Bons, Forshelby, Minniemouse and anyone i've missed... hello (scared to go back a page in case i lose this post).

AFM: still not quite there yet Grrrrr. Dr has suggested one more dose of medication to try and complete the m/c. Can't believe I would have been 10wks pg tomorrow. Still, i've gone this far... it's really not worth the d & c now. Should be ok (i think) in a couple more days. Going back to Dr next week.

Clairesmummy: welcome to BellyBelly and good luck that you've hit the jackpot first time around!

:leap:congratulations Iona!!!:leap: I hope you have a happy and healthy pg and nice that you and Foreshelby can go to the bb forums together. Best wishes to you both.

Dory - :p congrats on reaching 30 weeks! That's wonderful and hope the next ten will just fly by. xx

Thanks Minie, Possum, Bons (sorry if I missed anyone) - I'm counting the days down. Might even do a ticker!!

Minie - hope the appointment with the FS goes well and you can get started on IVF again soon

Possum- must be soon now for those levels to go down? Hope you don't have to wait much longer. So sorry lovely.

Bons - LOL at the taste of you DH's stuff - think it depends what they eat, sometimes it's tastier than others LOL! IKWYM about dtd at the parents house - hope you have fun anyway

Love to everyone

Good luck Reet

Hi All,
Just a quick one from me, gotta go and ring council, my poor furbaby was attacked at the park yesterday, she is feeling a bit worse for wear :(
Welcome Clairesmummy, I hope you stay here is quick! xxx
Reet - still keeping my FX, and in regards to your sister.....I was violently sick my whole pg with DS, it sucked, but now looking at it after mc, I cannot wait! I figure the sicker I am the stronger the bubba is sticking ( last pg, I vomited once ) xxx
Big hugs to you all, and thanks for the comments on the stuff....i think i new (sweeter) eating plan is coming Dh's way ;), and yes I have had those moments when you find dried stuff when you are out and about hehe:p
AFM - Got another bd in last night - Im really hoping this is our month, have been daydreaming bout rubbing my tummy with sunscreen over summer....I shouldnt get my hopes up, I have an appt with my GP next week while Im away, not sure whether to discus more options if im not pg soon, Im just really impatient!!!!
That wasnt very quick at all, be back tonight xxxx

Forshelby- Thanks for the words of confidence and the flashing neon lights....lol.....still on the subject of my bb's they aren't sore as in painful just feeling a little tender around my nips, sorry if it's tmi...lol...not as sore as they were when I was pg with my DD when the shower on them would nearly kill me. And a huge congrats to you.
Possum and Bons, thanks for the welcome and I'm hoping my stay is breif in here not that I don't like chatting to you all and keeping you all updated it's just that I soooooo want to bless my DF, DD and me with a little bundle of joy.
and an update on me, still have no idea what's going on with me as yet, but when I went to the loo before I noticed I still have small amounts of whiteish\creamy CM and when I did the dreaded wipe I noticed a little tiny weeny bit of creamish brownish stuff AF not due until Sunday and I normally don't show signs of AF till the day she arrives. And I don't know if I am drinking way to much for my bladder to handle cause it's so cold but I'm so over running to the toilet to p every hour or so. Normally can hold it for hours on end not this week though. Feeling a little off colour this morning as well but I'm thinking it's nerves cause AF is due soon. Still got a high temp reading this morning though of 36.2 when I'm usually in the 35.6 area at this time. I take my temp orally as it's my DD thermometer. And I have also been exp. some very weird dreams for the past 5-6days. The wait is driving me insane........

hi all,

af arrived for me last night, 66 days after my m/c, she had waited so long she could have waited another week until i was better, im sick enough as it is now i have af pain to deal with, on the positive side it will work in well for when i see the dr next week although we are now thinking of putting off ttc a few months while i lose some weight

matthewsmum: hope you get good news soon and can get on with this cycle

Reet: any update from you ?

bons: good luck with the bding festival lol

Hi Ladies
Just wanna pop in quickly and do a selfish post. Im sorry I dont have time to catch up right now. There is so much happening all the time in this thread and I havent been on BB for about a week I think.
I hope you are all well and getting closer to your miracles and dreams. GL to all. Babydust and Stickyvibes.

AFM ~ I said I wasnt going to track this month but I had alot of EWCM yesterday and so decided to do a Maybe Baby and Im ovulating. DTD a couple of times this week, incl last night (sorry TMI) so now will be crossing fingers. Although DH and I are both sick with the dreaded flu so perhaps not holding our breaths this month. Yesterday I also felt that my bb's were a bit sore which is strange at this stage- so Im a little hopeful that maybe we have already conceived - would be so amazing if we have but if not we have our IVF in Oct to focus. Ive also had this arvo a bit of back pain -like around the kidney area - very weird. Perhaps it is just due to ovulating maybe- really dunno.
Hope to catch up on how everyone is tomorrow

Hugs and best wishes xoxo

Reet - Dammit, my brain is NOT working right now! You're being a party pooper too, lol. Seriously though, I'm just giving you some payback for always peer pressuring me to POAS. Haha, I'm naughty. I say if you need to wait, then do it. But I'm going to be here looking impatient until you do test! :D I hadn't heard your story before. Life is so cruel sometimes. I would be gutted too if my sister did the same. Even though it's technically none of your business... it's totally understandable to feel that way. She threw away something you would do ANYTHING to have. So sorry, that must have been really hard on you. Still you must be a great sister because you don't really judge her for doing what she did. Ok back to waiting for you to test. or be late. 2 days... OH THE HORROR.... :D

Possum - Hi hun, Sorry this is being so long and drawn out for you. You're being so strong. I hope it's over soon and you can start to heal.

Alice - :) Still a bit scared to get into too many other forums yet... I feel like I might jinx something, as silly as that sounds.

Bons - What a cute daydream. I hope this is your month, too. Good luck with DH's stuff, lol. And I hope your furbaby is recovering well! Poor thing!

Clairesmummy - Ooh, could it be implantation spotting? I had a few specks before my bfp and kept telling myself I was imagining it. I also NEVER have spotting before af. Oh and I also had the painful bbs last preg (mc), but this time they're only slightly sore. Makes me worry, but I'm trying to tell myself it's all ok. Weird dreams is also another big neon sign. It was one of my bfp symptoms too. I can't help but get excited for you, sorry! :D let us know what happens ok?!

AFM - tired. So unbelievably tired I could use a nap right now. That's all I can really remember. Oh and I'm queasy. Come ON ms, kick in already... :(

thought I would take my mind away from the draining wait of dear ol' AF today and worked my horse after doing so I was ready to curl up for a nana nap felt totally drained and could not stop myself from yawning, was fun trying to keep my eyes open long enough to pick up DD from Kindy this arvey. I was only riding for like 20mins or a little longer usually ride from 30-40mins. Been feeling totally yuck this evening so far hungry but have a bad taste in my mouth. Feeling a bit fluey as well. Good golly this is all about me...I feel like I should be putting dear diary at the start of my posts...lol.....
Forshelby- Thanks again for your words of wisdom I so hope you are right and thank you for being excited for me I'm not quiet game enough to get excited yet but feel free to do it for me...lol...I wish you all the very best with your pg keep yah chin up and try not to stress to much as hard as that is to do I know....I will keep you all informed over the week end with whats going on with AF DF is working this week end so I will be on here a fair bit.
