Kellie- Your FIL has a very hard decision ahead of him and it will affect everyone either way, all anyone can do in these situations is hope that he can get through this with as little pain as possible no matter the outcome :( We will be here for you :)
I'm not sure which day to test yet, I'm thinking to go by my ticker but I might test early incase I did O CD10 because there is still hope for a BFP then hehe. I have some internet cheapies left so I might use them to test on the 10th and then my FRER on the 13th and if still nothing and no AF then I will test again on the 18th like FF suggest lol. I'm hoping by then that I will get some sort of answer, if not then back off to the the docs with me.

Matthews mum- Oh my goodness i cant believe the clinic is an hr away from u! Thats ages! I guess im lucky that everything in cairns is pretty close to me. Atleast it wld only be 1 or 2 days a week u have to do that hey. I hope ur body is nice to u and u O sooner rather then later.
Damprye- U sound like me.. i have no idea when i shld be testing since Im not sure when I Oed. Im kinda glad im not temping..dont think i cld handle the confusion it adds to ttc! Great list of symptoms u have too.. FX it leads to a BFP!
Kellbell- Im sure ur FIL will do what he feels is right. When will he have the op if he chooses that option?? How is ur dh coping?? Oooooh i hope ur symptoms turn into a BFP!!! Yay that u have started getting some!
Forshelby- WOOHOO for being 4 weeks pg today!!!! :) if u choose too u can go for a scan in 2 weeks! i think someone else also asked but are u getting bloods done when u get back or just relax for a little while??
Dory- Glad everything is fine.. u had us all worried! :)
Hello to Alice, Loops, Bons- has af arrived?? i hope not!! And everyone else!!
AFM- I have got no symptoms whatsoever.. hopefully its cos i am just not looking into things with my body at the moment tho. Im just basically ignoring myself! Im not letting my mind think about anything.. Im not sure what day im on (i know i cld look at my ticker but im not going too!) I just keep thinking the longer i leave it til i start working out when af is due etc.. the less stress i have!!
Very weird tho girls I had a sex dream yesterday morning too.. whats with all of us!! Bunch of randy women arent we all in here!
-
Damprye - those symptoms sound promising, I second Kellie... when are you testing?
Kellie - yep I'm going to call my doctor before I get back to the coast, hoping to get in to see him saturday morning before we head to the hotel. (romantic anniversary getaway) :) I'm going to ask for bt's I think..... I assume they won't do another urine test since I've done 2... and will do another 2 when I get home. LOL. About your FIL, I know he's scared, but if he avoids the op, then he will have no chance. Sorry if that sounded harsh. I just think if going through the op means some small glimmer of hope, then he should go for it. Nobody wants to die.... :( I'm so sorry hun, sending you strength in this tough time.
-
I was talking to the girls in chat and they managed to convince me to test lol... I think there is a second line :o
It is the faintest of faint lines but the other girls think they can see it too.
Oh I don't know if I should get excited yet or not.
Can anyone else see it? My test. Does it look like a :bfp: or a :bfn:? I am so not sure.
If I tip the screen back I think I can see it and if I invert it and tip it forwards I think I can see it even better but then again I just might be wanting it so badly that I am seeing what is not really there, OMG so much more confused and so excited... when should I test again ???? Arg what should I think???
Bloomin' peer pressure LOL
-
Damprye - I'm pretty sure I see a line! About 1.5cm or so left of the control. Test again at 10 or 11dpo. I hope this is it, hun, I really do. Keep us all posted!!!!!
-
Damprye- Maybe i can?? not really sure tho.. its hard to tell in photos.. its also hard to tell in real life sometimes too!! have u got any first response tests?? if not get 1 tomoro morning and test with that. Yay!! Good luck! Be sure to keep us posted!!
-
oh my god.its a line alright and im looking from my phone not on computer.test in morning if u can.waiting to hear result.
-
Looks like a line to me!
are you testing again the morning:D
How exciting!!!!
looks like forshelby you have started the trend :dance:
-
Reet - I'm hoping to get in for some bloods asap, and I'm taking my dates from Monday when I got my BFP. So that makes me 4+3 today. Still no sign of af, just that low down slight crampiness. I'm just about to try to book an appointment with my doctor for Saturday morning after I get back home. Oh and LOL@ the sex dream. I hope that's a good sign for you like it was for me!
Kellie - I'm so pleased to set the BFP trend. Who else is with me? :D
AFM, can't WAIT to get back home to my spunky DP. I forgot how stressful it is being here. Mum is so............. melodramatic. Everything is so hard. Everything is 'the end of the world'. I can't open a window, I'm wrong about everything... i remember now why I ran for the hills as soon as I was 18. I love her, but sometimes I think she's just so disrespectful of our rights as adults! She's spent most of the time telling my sister and I our views and way of life is wrong, or crazy. Also, she is totally unconcerned with the level of dust in the house, which I'm having a hard time with, and my sister has an allergy to dust. She seems to think it's totally normal to leave 10 years worth of dust in your old bedroom, and to make you sleep in it without opening a window. I don't even know how to describe the insanity! It's almost as if her laziness, and self absorbtion has taken over to a level where our HEALTH isn't even important anymore. We dared move out, so we deserve to come back to a dust filled house. I can actually see it floating in the air.
Thank goodness I'm flying out tomorrow and can get away from the stupidity. Don't worry though, I'm keeping as calm as I can. I just won't be coming back in a hurry.
Sorry for the long ranting vent.... stuff is just really getting to me. Anyone else have a mum like this? :o
-
damprye-how did testing go this morning?big hello to everyone
-
ForShelby- Sorry that it wasn't what you were expecting, sometimes we forget just how bad things really were.
__________________________________________________ _________________________
Hi everyone, sorry for the quicky, my modem got covered in water this morning so my internet is out for a while, borrowing a mates.
I tested again this morning, it is still about as light as last night but I decided to do an OKP while I was at it and it came back a STRONG positive, the test line is lots darker than the control line and that was at 3mins instead of 5mins. My temp also had a masive jump today, it is the highest it has ever been, 36.77. Normally after O it sits at 36.4-36.6. I have no idea what to think now, my chart has been kinda climbing after O but nothing like this. I'm not sure if I really did O when FF said and when I got my last +OPK. I got my + on cd12 and now I have this one.... ARG.
I don't know when I can check the net again but any opinions would be appreciated. My chart i attached to my sig and I added this mornings temp. I also probably wont be able to update it till I can ue the net again either but yeah, any thought would be aweome... so much for a quicky lol.
GL to everyone else and I hope we all get our BFPs soon and H&H 9 months to follow :)
__________________________________________________ ____________________________________
Haha my modem is working again already woohoo, I had no idea how I was going to handle the next few days with out you girls lol. I can't believe I don't need a new one after all :D
Anyways I have my pic of my OKP with the HPT next to it. I know that it is definately a +OPK but as I said above, I am even more confused lol. I wish I had of taken pics of the one I took back then grr.
I think I will just take it as a +OPK and -HPTs at least that way I can't get disappointed.
-
Dampyre- that looks like a second line to me!!!! Yay test again, test again!
Dory - Glad everything is ok, i was going crazy checking :) !
forshelby - There is nothing like home is there! Hope you get an appt quick ! xxx
Reet - Looked at your ticker yet? or still going with the head in the sand approach? hehe wish i had your strength!
Loops - the sooner the better i say, i cant wait for the crazy loops haha!
Kellie - Hope you FIL is coming to terms with whats happening, I cant imagine what is going through his and your MIL's minds at the moment....xxxx
Matthewsmum - Glad your kids understand what is happening, it would be too hard to hide, specially on emotional days, I hope you O earlier in your cycle this time.... xxx
How are you Iona?
Good luck to those coming up to O time, get your best BDing sheets on ;) and everyone in the crazy tww....be strong xxx
AFM - Well Af arrived after a day of spotting, feeling headachey and moody....i just want to sit down and eat every piece of chocolate in the house :lol:, DH and i have come up with a new game plan though, we are going to try and bd minimum every 2 days if not more as soon as af leaves, i think it is going to take some work on my part, but DH is unsurprisingly looking forward to it:rolleyes: more chaffing and knob burn :lol:

Forshelby - My condolences for your grandma... grieving is hard work and on top of that you're dealing with your mum. Mine used to be like that, but she's been a lot better the past few years, after I spoke to her about being negative and critical. But now is not the time for you to do that. Some parents just don't adjust to their kids being adults. I am sorry that it's such a tough time. Sweetie, my life is grief and happiness all combined and mixed up together. I am not sure how to do either independently anymore. You will find a way through.
Minnie - glad the eye is ok. Must be a relief.
Dampyre - I can't tell... sorry. I just kept buying tests and taking them twice a day until I got the two lines.... not sure if that's the best way to go about it!
Kell - I am so sad to hear the news about your FIL. As someone said, everyone is grieiving. It is very shocking news to get. The journey ahead for your Family in Law, is a hard one. If you can,get them to link into cancer services, they are a lot of help and offer amazing support to everyone. In a way I can understand your FIL preliminary decision not to have the op. It doesn't seem to make sense to everyone else, but he's got a lot to think about, including his dignity and for a lot of men of his generation that's a big thing. Being in hospital and having an op exposes them to a feeling of vulernability and a perceived loss of control and dignity Even my cousin who at 28/29 in hossy for cancer last year didn't want visitors this year when he went, because he hated lying in bed and having people coming and gawking at him. In fact he refused visitors when he was in hossy this year. Stubborn bugger. Anyway, I hope what ever decision he makes, your family in law can make peace with it. Take care in this tough time.
Hiya to everyone else, and again thankyou for much for thinking of me. It really does mean a lot to me. Good luck to those in the tww and to those hoping for their bfp in the next few days and for those enjoying the BD fest... lucky buggers. No rauchy dreams here - had a yucky dream that I clubbed someone almost to death last night. But then I saw some vision on the telly of someone doing that.... bit of a coincidence, but I would prefer a raunchy dream.
-
Thank you everyone for your well wishes. I'm sorry but my head is still so scatty i'm not going to do a good job of personals. I don't know where i belong at the moment. i feel like i need support but i'm still miscarrying not TTC, not PAML. I'm sort of in limbo land:(
Congratulations to ForShelby, that's awesome news!
Damprye: I've got my fingers crossed for you that that second line's a goodie!
Alice: So glad to see you're still around. I saw in the other thread that your current chart's a beauty. Excited for you to start your next cycle. THinking of you approaching your EDD (when is the exact date?) This is always a hard time.
To anyone i've missed i'm sorry, like i said, my brain's not in top form right now. I'm still bleeding and to top it all off my best friend has just told me she's 12wks pg. I'm very happy for her but so sad because it makes my loss so real. We should be having babies a month apart (or i should have a 3mth old baby by now if my little one from last year had made it).
-
possum - you are welcome to post wherever you feel you'll get support. We all are thinking of you and want your healing to go as well as it can. So sweetie, even if you are scatty, post here anytime. Hope that extra dose of miso gets the job done. You're in my thoughts.
-
THanks Dory. By the way forgot to say how relieved i was that your 'scare' checked out ok. Even through my fog i was stalking all over the forums to see how you were!
-
Possum - I am so sorry :( you are most definately welcome here.
Dory- Pregnancy dreams can be so weird lol.
Bons- Lol @knob burn haha, sounds like lots of fun to me :p
AFM- Well I don't think I am UTD, I must have just been imagining everything, hmm the power of the human mind :-/
I think I must have just O'd late, maybe last night/this morning. I am having wicked cramps though which is really bugging me but I got a -OKP and what I am pretty sure is a -HPT tonight so I wont bother testing again for another 10ish days (I want to say 14 but my will power isn't the greatest :p) if AF doesn't show up that is...
-
Well its a bit quiet in here today!!
Possum- So sorry to hear ur bestfriend is pg :( i just found out that one of DHs cousins is pg.. i dont even really know her but its hit me hard.. shes only been with the guy for max. 6 months! I found out on fb.. i dont even think im going to tell dh.. ill wait til he finds out himself.. i know he lets things like that eat away at him.. i can handle me being sad.. i cant handle him being sad! Did ur friend find it hard to tell u do u think?? How has ur dh been coping with things the last few days?? They always deal with things a lot more differently to us..
Thinking of u.. hope ur ok considering. xxx
Damprye- Maybe wait a few days and test again?? Did u end up getting a first response test??
Forshelby- Did u get an appointment for tomoro morning?? And sorry to hear bout ur mamma's behaviour.. mothers can be ur best friend at one stage but at others they can be ur worst enemy! They just know how to push ur buttons without actually meaning too. Get this! My mum comes to OUR house and tells us whats wrong with it..like.. oh u better fix those steps soon..or.. u need to replace the guttering..or.. that deck is starting to rot, u better sand it back. How rude!! To tell u the truth tho im always on DHs case about fixing things.. but it doesnt mean my mother can harrass us about it too! It automatically sends me into defence mode..like..'mum! theres nothing wrong with it!'
Anyway try and leave ur mum happy.. even if u dont feel it.. u will feel better for it in the long run! :)
Bons- Yes i caved and looked at my ticker.. but since i dont know when I o'ed im not sure exactly when af is due.. so ill just be waiting! Good luck with ur new approach.. You'll be right.. the more u do it the easier it becomes to just make it a regular habit! :) i just told dh today that if im not pg this time we are only going to do it every 2 days.. i dont think everyday is very good for the little swimmers!!
Dory- Oh wat a terrible dream!! Who were u smashing??! Anyone u know?? Hope ur feeling all good! :)
AFM- Well dh had another sperm analysis today.. hoping the results are better then last time.. he had quite a high rate of abnormal sperm last time.. he has made a few lifestyle changes.. i dont think enough.. but time will only tell!! Hopefully get the results monday. I think maybe thats why im not going overly crazy this month and wanting to poas as soon as i can.. i think i wld rather not be pg while he has a high rate of abnormal sperm because i know i wld be terrified of something happening and losing it. But with that said.. if i am pg then i will be over the moon and praying to god that everything runs smoothly!!
I had a bit of a breakdown last nite.. it came very unexpectedly.. i was ready to go to bed, jumped in the shower.. looked down and imagined my 30 week tummy poking out and bawled my eyes out! :cry: I think i have learnt to try and not think about it.. block it out of my mind.. but earlier that nite i went on babycenter.com just to check an article out and realised that when i was pg i put my duedate in.. so as soon as i entered the website it can up with.. U are 30 weeks pregnant.. Made me so sad :( I find it hard at times to show all my emotions to dh so im glad he wasnt here for my little episode. (he got back this arvo)
I also check out the PAML thread to see whats going on in there.. i actually think it tortures me more then anything tho! it hurts to see the girls in there having all these symptoms that i shld be having.
Anyway sorry for the long rambling me-ness!! Maybe af is on her way and thats why im feeling down
Love and hugs to u all! xxx
