    Hi Jayne! Thanks for the baby dust girlie, I really miss you! Im so glad you drop in now and then to check on us ttc'ers!! Well dh has never said that before its either wishful thinking or he was really happy with his performance last night! LOL!!

    MEgan - mmm is the line getting darker? For an opk to be positive the line has to be as dark or darker than the control line?? Keep bd anyway sweets - just in case!!

    Amy - hellooooo and welcome. Nice to have you in here!

    Michelle - thinking of you and praying for really really high, huge, whopping hcg levels tonight!

    Hiya to everyone else,

    Lisa - PMSL I'm really loving the idea that DH was impressed with his performance! You crack me up. I miss you guys so much, I want to post in here loads more than I actually do but I don't want to offend anybody by crashing this thread constantly! KWIM? I'm hanging onto Michelle's hand so tight her fingers are turning blue! LOL. DH is wishing he could just get lucky. He comes home every night & says 'I wanna piece of your boobs' & I'm like p&ss off. That soooooooo doesn't turn me on right now! My boobs are like so freaking me out, I swear, I have big boobs & I could wear no bra, they're just standing up all on their own these days & I leaked colostrum the other day!!! I nearly died of embarrassment. Thank goodness it only happened in the comfort of my shower! LOL. I'm so hanging out to have you in the PAML forum, so is Michelle & Shell. Well if DH is right, you'll be over there before you know it! I must go, I was meant to hang the washing out a few hours ago......

    Love you sweets! Jayne xox

    Lisa at your Dh! Tell him he's got a few more good performances to put in yet, so to save some of his energy! I wanna see you get that BFP this month! Good luck on Thursday, it's going to be such a good day for all of us! And it's Kelly's birthday too, so she keeps telling me what a good day it'll be LOL!

    Michelle, honey please don't stress. I know it's easier said than done. I too have a had a few meltdowns over severe cramping over the past few weeks. The last lot was just last Friday, and I was at work. I nicked upstairs and had a lie down on the quiet! And of course then got myself into a state! So I really understand where you're coming from right now. Just think of all that amazing stretching and growing that your uterus is doing right now! for you sweets.

    Megan, Lisa is right, a + OPK is when the test line is as dark or darker than the control. I always got faint lines, getting darker, for days leading up to O. Then - whammo! a very dark line! You may already know all this, but it's so easy to get excited when you see any sort of line on any sort of stick! And in the meantime, just keep up the BD, you're going to O any time soon!

    Love to everyone else, Sez xoxo

    Lisa - Jayne is right. We are hanging out to have you in PAML with us. Thank you so much for being here and supporting me. I have a very tight grip on your hand (and Jayne's too at the moment). I have had a cuppa (herbal ) and went for a coffee with a friend and her 9 month old daughter this afternoon. Thankfully DH is here with me too. I feel a little better and have been talking sternly to this little bubba about sticking and growing and not stressing its mummy!!!

    Cramping has settled with some panadol (and now I am hoping it isn't just constipation pains. How embarrassing would that be ) I have started the aspirin and I need to have a positive u/s result to start the clexane. Blood test results should be back around 6pm. If all is good then I will book in for Thursday / Friday next week. Unfortunately DH will be away again so I may need to take someone else with me for moral support. My best friend who will be coming to the birth (how's that for positive thinking ) will be o/s so I may have to tell another friend and see if she can come. None of my family are in Sydney. The good part is the sonographer is someone I know (and I have pre-warned her about my potential state) so I know she will be empathetic to me being a blubbering mess. Just a little bit longer .... 34 weeks to go

    Jayne - you make me laugh even when I am stressed!!! Love the boobs story - probably my *biggest* concern ..... they CAN'T possible get any bigger than they already are!!! I miss us all being together so much!!!

    Amy - thank you so much for your support too

    Hope - what you are feeling is perfectly normal and natural. It IS hard to see other pregnant people (friends or not). It doesn't get easier no matter how many losses you have and you will grieve. You do have every chance of having a healthy baby ... it just deosn't feel like it today and that is completely normal too.

    Just an update HCG 4080 from 775 on Friday :eek: Completely normal rise (however DH did question the possibility of twins but he was kidding ... I hope!!!) So in other words - one stressed mummy to be is now a little less stressed. My poor GP even said she will be grey by the time this baby is born (I reminded her there are 35 weeks to go )

    Hi Girls,
    I have been MIA for a couple of days. I have been feeling rotten, terrible nausea, and I am so tired! I tried to lay down during both of Scanlon's sleeps yesterday, and even though I was knackered, I could'nt sleep. I think that is the worst. And I went to bed at 7pm last night and didn't fall asleep until 9pm. Grrrr.
    HCG results all look good.

    I hope you are all well. I don't really feel up to trying to catch up with you all at the moment, Please forgive me, I'm sure I will feel up to it soon

    Hope - you very nearly made me cry as i feel all of those things too. My due date was actually two days after yours in March next year. I think all you can do is ride the wave. That may be unhelpful advice but everything is just out of our control. Keep in mind that you are fertile and you can get pregnant and it will happen! My best friend actually had a baby yesterday....she is my best friend and i did cope very well, but that doesn't mean i am not envious and all i could think about on the way home from the hospital was "when is it going to be my turn?". So i just want you to know that you are not alone, and take strength in the fact that you have a loving DH who will be by your side through it all. I know none of this is going to help, sometimes you just have to feel like **ap for awhile until you just cant be bothered feeling like **ap any more and somehow you move on. It's a long road I know.

    Hi all,

    Amym, Hope af eases off for you soon, she really is a witch isn't she.

    Tanya, I am thinking of you and hope to see a bfp from you next month.

    Hope, I'm sorry that your going through a rough patch at the momemt. We are allowed to have our bad times and I'm sending a hug your way.

    LisaL, hope all your bding pays off for you this month.

    Smallsquirrel, I hope the m/s settles down for you but think of the possitives.

    Michelle, Congratulations on those levels.

    Jayneshirra, keep spreading that baby dust, I don't think there can ever be too much of that floating around.

    Hi to anyone I've missed.

    As for me I'm on cycle day 3 and am counting down to cd5 so I can start clomid again. Af has given me a hard time so far, but it can only get better from here.

    Hi girls...

    Yay Lisa... you go girl

    Michelle, what a fantastic number!! Looks like you are OUTA HERE!!

    Paige, I hope that m/s calms down a bit for you! It really is awful isn't it... but I know I will be hoing for it next time around.

    Hope... I am sorry to hear you are having a tough time atm... I have been a bit the same lately. I would be due in about 6 weeks.. so I often imagin myself waddling around and the baby kicking And there my partner invited his friend and his GF around the other night. Turns out she is pg... smoking, drinking... and she is phsically abusive to her BF!! So now he has left her (he stayed a bit too long around here and she went off her head! Nut case!! I told DP to NEVER invited such horrible ppl here again!)

    Anyway... AF will be here tomorrow I have decided to stay off the potassium sups and eat heaps of watermelon, pineapple and bananas (lots of potasium in them) So fingers crossed it works.

    Hello ladies!

    Just popping in to let you all know I'll be MIA for a while. Don't worry, I'm not taking a break from TTC...just a break from OBSESSING about TTC! LOL

    It was really starting to do my head in and obsessing about it can't be healthy so I'm just going with the flow for a while. I'm not bothering with temps at all and have hardly bothered with my chart either. And you know what, I feel sooooooooooo much better!

    But unfortunately, no obsessing means no BB either I find that being on here just makes me think about everything so much more so I need to have a break from BB for a little while too.

    A huge congrats on all the BFP's lately...it's so wonderful to see Hopefully I'll come back sometime soon with a BFP of my own

    Love & babydust as always
    Belle
