Trying to Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ May 08

[jen805]

mmteacher--I found out that I'm not allowed to do that! I tried to send you a private message, but for some reason I could only leave a visitor message, so I didn't leave it there b'cuz I didn't want to get into trouble. Just type it out and add the .com to the end (sorry to the moderators if that's not ok! ) Sorry, hun, hope that helps some! You'll probably lose yourself there for a couple hours--I did!


plc--Good morning baby mama! Hope you're staying calm and relaxed and having happy, positive vibes! I'm using my mental powers right now to send you these very important vibes while you're sleeping.... lol... You're probably thinking, "Yep, she's mental, alright!" Here's some more


AJC--I'm sure I know what you were doing last night after that +OPK!!! Good luck for a BFP!!


tempus--Hope your b-day turned out to be an enjoyable one!


mollycat--Hey cycle buddy! How's the home addition going? Is it staying dry for you?


I had an interesting horoscope yesterday.... It said "One of the groups you belong to is becoming a more important tool for your future". Trippy because this is the only group I belong to! Any other time in my life it wouldn't mean anything, but in this case, it was right on! Thanks to you all!!

hey girls

how is everyone?

i am dragging my feet this morning, had a few days off (took a long weekend) and today is back to work and i really don't want to go...

anyway i am about halfway through my TWW with virtually no symptoms of anything so i am pretty sure this is not my month. anyway i am ok with it, feeling quite relaxed about the whole TTC thing at the moment so that's good.

issy- those sore bouncing bb's sound very promising!!! would be awesome to be belly buddies together but i'm sure if you go on ahead for now i will catch up with you in the PAML thread eventually!

jen- aw hun sorry about the baby duck, can imagine you probably started getting a little attached, here's a big for you. hey that horoscope of yours sounds very spot on!!

tina- sounds like you are enjoying your job as hard as it is- good to hear!

to everyone else a big hello and big

[AJC]

Morning everyone

Hope you all had a lovely weekend!

Feeling a bit depressed today - I did opk yesterday and it was dark line but not a + so I figured I had O'd but my temp is still not very high??? I feel totally deflated about the whole thing. Last month is shot up nicely but this month - terrible. cd21 BT tomorrow so will be interesting to see what this months results say - my guess is that my dosage will be increased.

Sorry - but just had to vent.

Thanks for listening

[jen805]

pbstar--Thanks for the Sorry you have the back-to-work blues... I'll be feeling it tomorrow, for sure! I'm not a big fan of Monday--it ranks up there with AF!! Remember lots of women don't have any symptoms this early,so although you seem fairly relaxed about it (which is great!), keep the faith! Fingers crossed for you!


AJC-- Sorry you're feeling so blue and so frustrated. I hope you get the results you want for you BT tomorrow. :Goodluck2:


smilanatu--Did you get my sticky, sweaty BD vibes? How's that working for you? Did you catch the eggie, or what, girl?

[tempus moriendi]

Whoa...I can actually post with personals and everything!!! Today is my first day of full flow--I don't know if anybody else feels like this, but my period always feels like some big, giant "reset" button in my life. Everything starts fresh in the new month.

mollycat: I have to confess to being just a little bit jealous--putting on an additin to your house! I think about that from time to time, but I don't want to go through the expense...at least not yet

AJC: I'll be keeping fingers crossed for you even though your symptoms are contradictory! And sending cyberhug

jen805: so sorry about your ducks. You're probably right, there was something wrong with them, but it's sad anyway

mmteacher: sending relaxation vibes

pbstar: IKWYM about not wanting to go to work. that's me nearly every time!

[jen805]

tempus--You're right, AF (the witch that she is), is actually just restarting our cycle for the next month. I was so relieved she finally showed for me, I know you were having the same problem, but you had to endure it for much longer than I did! I'm sure you're also very relieved she finally reared her fat, ugly, face! Obviously, the alternative would be much better, but when you're waiting to actually begin the process of TTC again, it can be a long, drawn-out, drama induced nightmare. Anyhow, I'm really happy for you that you can get this nasty part over with and get back into the game. this will be your month!

[jen805]

Forgot to mention one GREAT thing about Flo... I'm sitting here just finishing my second strawberry daquiri.... I'm surprised I can still spell daquiri!... Sorry, I feel like I'm rambling, but just wanted to show a positive aspect of AF!

[Vanaithi]

Bettyboop: Thanks for your welcome & sorry to about your loss. Good luck & I hope AF does not come round for you for the next few years at least

Smilanatu: Thank you for your welcome! I hope next time you get a HFP - take a whiff & let me know if it smells like papaya ay?

Jen805: Thank you & I hope very very soon, all of us will be gone from this thread forever! & I do hope (if nobody minds) that everyone who has a suspicion that they're preggers or confirmed to please let me know if theirs smell like papaya or something different to normal. It would be interesting to prove whether im right or just loopy!

Canary: Thank you also for your welcome, hope you get all your wishes this month (& everyone else too!) also the above request applies to you too, so please let me know ok!

Pbstar: Thanks very much for welcoming me. Everybody's support has been great & kept me positive. I wish you all the best as well!

As for me: we've been dtd since last friday & every 2nd day after my boobies are a bit sore & achy since last night & more so today. Whats the chance of conception this early on? - it was 2 weeks since my d&C on satday... or is this just a sign that AF is due soon? hmmm...

[jen805]

Vanaithi-- You've got me I promise as soon as I get a BFP, I'll take big whiffs searching in vain for that faint smell of papaya and then I'll let you know whether or not I think you're loopy! Thanks, hun, you're great!

[mollycat]

TM - it's really exiting watching at the moment - really early stages, just a pile of holes in the ground with a few bits of timber around some (showing the floor level), the council comes in tomorrow and approves the holes (sounds silly), then the builder is back to concrete the bottom and the brickies start the piers. The expense is the scary part, we only had about two more years left on our mortgage and now have another twenty to go with this extension but at least we'll have some space and the boys will finally have their own bedrooms - listening to them argue with each other and telling myself it's only for a couple of more months while we get bedrooms sorted out.
AJC - hoping you did O and it's only the cold mornings here mucking your temps about. Hope you get a good result with your test.
Jen - your making me jealous - wish it was still the weekend here. My weekend went so quickly feel like I didn't get any "me" time.

AFM - AF is still here - really heavy this time (i often get heavy but not this late usually first couple of days), i didn't even get a headache so that was great seeing as though i often get migraines as well.

Hey lovely ladies!!

jen - I'm ok hun, got my GP appt today at 5.15pm (not sure what that translates to for you) and I poas this morning again (4th time now) so I just gotta get that referral for the ob. I'm not having super positive thoughts but nor am i having super negative thoughts - just trying to remain balanced I suppose. Let me just say that you are NOT mental sweetheart - i can do with all the positive vibes and prayers I can get at any time of the day!! BTW, i love ur horoscope - how cool was that! and also I am very jealous of ur daiquiris - and the milder weather you must be having too. Take care sweet.

Vanaithi - hun, i don't want you to think ur loopy but I have to say that there is not a chance that papaya is happening at toilet time for me at the moment - in fact, the total opposite, not nice. Does the "papaya" concept also extend to flatulence cos I have to also say that there is none of that either - sorry for TMI but it is so bad that i can't even stand it Hope ur well sweet. Not too sure on ur query re early conception.

tempus - how wonderfully cleansing that must feel for u - out all the bad stuff and get it ready for the good

AJC - oh hun - i wish i could send you a real hug but ul just have to really try hard to imagine it. Chin up cos tomorrow things tend to not look so bad (it could take even til the day after). Take care, hun.

pbstar - hugs to you too hun.

mmteacher - don't know if u found it but TWW support is in the same thread as this is "TTCAML". There should be a recent post in the list of posts you'll see that you can click on. GL!

Hey to everyone else and wishing you well all the time.

[mmteacher]

Thx plc-After reading your post, I found it right away...Still reluctant to post quite yet but maybe soon...I have been doing a pretty good job of not going crazy this time!

Jen~I know what you're saying with that other website-I often get caught reading all the success stories and looking for common symptoms!

Well, sorry no more persies...studying for a job interview that I have on Friday!!!!

Talk to you all soon!

MMTeacher

[Vanaithi]

I think I can answer my own question: I think the sore boobies are just signs of ovulation! Wishful thinking Oh well! keep on trying!

[AJC]

Vanaithi - I'm not sure if I have welcomed you or not - might have missed your post. If not welcome if I already have but just forgotten then Welcome again. I hope your time in here is very short and you get a BFP very soon!!!

mmteacher - GL for Friday's interview.

plc - lots and lots of sticky vibes for you - bucket loads, tonnes ....... Thanks for keeping us updated.

mollycat - glad af spared you one of her headaches, they're the worst! She needs to stay away completely next time though.

Jen - Strawberry Daquiri - yummo, hope you enjoyed every sip! Sorry to hear about the little ducklings, they're such sweet little things I love their little 'cheep cheep'. My grandparents always had ducks and chickens and I just loooved it when they had ducklings.

Tempus - hope you enjoyed your more relaxed day today. AF is like a bit of a reset isn't she. Although I think all of us don't need to be reset again for at least another 9 months!

pbstar - you just never know this could be your month and I hope it is. I'm glad you are relaxed about it though because that is a thing that is very hard to do. GL ! ! !

Everyone else - GL to those in tww (am going to go and check out that website Jen told us about shortly) and to all of those about to O - GL!!!

Babydust and hugs to all

[nicksterUK]

for all. GOOD LUCK, hope this is your month!! xx

for those who are getting jiggy, catching eggies...and getting preggy!!

Jen- so sorry to hear about your little duck The time difference between Australia, Uk and USA mean that I am stuck in the middle. The Aussie ladies are 11 hours ahead of me, while the USA (New York side) are 6 hours behind me. I don't mind- there's always someone on here to talk to, no matter what.
We are on a bank holiday weekend (it's monday and I don't have to go to work WooHoo!) DH, DD and I are taking a drive to a little Cornish fishing village for the day and plan to eat Pasties and Ice-cream galore!)

Vanaithi- PAPAYA?? I don't even know what that smells like- but I'm pretty sure that my poor, constipated tushy (one of the joys of pregnancy) has never produced a 'sweet smelling parcel' in its life- pregnant or not!! I loathe visiting the bathroom- adn am already practicing my breathing techniques 'puff, puff squeeze' because it's bloody painful- especially since I'm on double iron tablets. Sorry TMI hee hee

Have a great day everyone xxxx

[smilanatu]

tina...I'm late but I had a wonderful day with the kids Thursday!

Nickster...So exciting!!! Have fun feeling those flutters!

tempus...I am sorry about your EDD...I hope you had a wonderful birthday!

mollycat...I am hoping to have a new EDD when 7/25/2008 arrives... that we both get BFP soon!!!

AJC...I sure hope you caught the eggie!

jen...aww...sorry about your ducky! I did get the vibes and I am praying some swimmers got to the eggie!!!

vanaithi...whew your name is hard to spell...LOL...how are you gurlie? I am sorry I read your post too late to smell for papaya...but I will tell you the whole weekend was sweet!!!

[jen805]

mollycat--No use being jealous of me--you'll get to Friday faster than I will! At least Fridays are the beginning of the weekend, where as Sundays are the end! Now it's dreaded Monday for me... I think I'm feeling a little hung over this morning! If it weren't for AF I would swear I was pg! Have felt headachy and slightly nauseous all morning, but I know it's due to my tasty daquiri's! Sorry to hear AF is heavier than usual, but glad to hear no migraine! For some reason Flo's been really gentle on me this month--I keep waiting for the other shoe to fall, it can't possibly be this easy for me! Hope this doesn't mean she's going to stick around longer than usual! Fingers crossed she'll pack her bags and make a quick getaway for you.


plc--How'd your appt. go? Hope you got lots of good news!


mmteacher--Good on your job interview on Friday! It's almost time for you to test, isn't it? Fingers are crossed for you!


Vanaithi--Happy O! Now's your time to go after that egg!


AJC--Hope you enjoyed the site! BTW, I enjoyed every sip so much that I'm still feeling it this morning! Not quite as enjoyable the next day!


nickster--Sounds like a fun day off! I wish I didn't have to work today, even though I'm really lucky, and my work day is only 1 1/2 hours! Eat some pasties and ice cream for me, too, please! Thanks for clarification on the time difference! Hope you're enjoying your !


smilanatu--Back to the huh? You're lucky--wish we were still cycle buds! those caught the eggie!!!

[plc1805]

Hey Jen - yeah appt went well. However, my doc could not have been more disinterested in the fact that i was pg - i think he is stale in his job and has been there for too long. Anyway, i asked to get the hcg bt and even tho he was not enthused i still insisted. Boy! After what you and i and the rest of the girls have been thru ud think a GP would over-extend a little with the encouragement and enthusiasm. Not to worry. Then i had bt so get results next day which is today (tomorrow ur time). I asked my GP if the results showed up low should i have another test and he thought about it and said ..... yes. Like getting blood from a stone, really.

Hey everyone else - sorry for a me post - but my thoughts are truly always with you all.
