    hi everyone havnt posted anything for a while and justed wanted to say congrats to those who have fallen pregnant ant to wish those who havnt yet all the luck and best wishes. stay positive and never give up.
    Im currently on my second go at the clomid and am 7 days into my 2week wait. and the wait is killing me.im trying to be positive but on the other hand dont wont to get my hopes up, this is the hardest part for me waiting to see if it has worked. yet if it does work im scared that it will end in a miscarriage as it did before.
    i feel like a crazy person, my emotions are all over the place and feel this is the only place i feel i can share these feelings without being judged. ( hope u dont mind)
    i have a question i would like to ask i dont have any children and have always wanted kids, but since the m/c i want them even more its all i think about has anyone else felt like that??
    sorry for the long entry.

    jenushka--Wow, that's definitely a +OPK!! I'm those little (yay for new spermies!) find their way to that eggie! C'mon little spermies, can you say "fertilization"? Hope you get your BT results back quickly and that the Menevit helps your DH. Big, big hugs and some for you!



    AJC--Thanks for the babydust! Here's some right back atcha! So I know that you weren't planning on finding out the sex of the baby, but are you having any inklings as to what you think you're having? OMG, I can't believe you're 23 weeks already!! I bet you're sporting a nice belly now, aren't you? Big



    tutmae--Congrats on a great 12 week scan! How awesome to see little Button waving at you and doing somersaults!! Keep that grin on your face--you deserve to be happy and enjoy being pg!! *kiss*



    Rachel B--Ugh, the dreaded TWW! Keep your chin up, you're half way there! Big hug... I think it's quite natural for anyone after suffering through a m/c to feel almost obsessed at times about becoming pg again and having children. I already have 2 DS's, but after my last m/c especially, there's still a longing/yearning just to be pg again! Good luck with the Clomid, and I pray that your TWW ends with a BFP!!

    Hi All....

    I'm so proud of myself - I spent yesterday afternoon going through those boxes of "stuff I might need one day". I managed to half fill our garbage bin, fill another box for the charity bin, sort some of it out to stuff I might use this year and managed to empty about four or five boxes and only filled 2 back up as "stuff I might need one day".

    AJC - hello. Cruisin along nicely.

    Jen - have you had a look at those smilies - it's like a candy shop!!!! I think we picked right O on day 14. Now in the

    Tutmae - Yay for 12 week scan


    to all of our friends

    Hi ladies, a new thread boy you have all been busy., I just cant keep up so I do apologies.

    Jenuskha Good luck with the menevit I hope it works for you and I that and get your sticky lil jelly bean.

    Jen Thanks for the advice about the B6 I will go buy some on my next day off. I am willing to give anything a go. I also have a question for you since you seem to be pretty good at the whole BBT thing. I am a shift worker and work different shift all the time would I still be able to BBT? I asked my acupuncturist and he said no just curious what you think?

    Issy Well I dont know what to say about AF I dont want her to come as I am hoping you get a BFP. Maybe you could go get a blood test done and they can check your hormones and tell you approx where you are in your cycle?

    Mollycat Good work with the spring cleaning I did it not that long ago but wasn't as successful as you I only managed to get one garbage bag full. Sending you lots of Hope those spermies done there job and and you get your BFP this month.

    Rachael :goodluck2: in your I hope you get your BFP next week. My FS has just put me on 25mg of Clomid to start on my next cycle as they usually are 37 days long in hope that it makes me ovulate earlier. Did you find that the clomid helped you? Can I ask why the FS put you on clomid?

    Tutame Congratulations on your healthy 12 week scan and that button is having a great time in your tummy

    AFM Well I am a little confused I dont know what is happening in my cycle my CM has changed and the position of my cervix from low to high and then back to low again almost twice in each day so I am really confused about when I Ovulated. Well I think I am somewhere in my TWW but dont know where guess I will just have to play the waiting game now and see if AF shows up

    Tam--I think as long as you get 3 consistent hours of sleep, you can take your temp at any time of the day--it doesn't just have to be in the am. Let me see what I can find..... OK, here's what it says about BBT and shift work on FF:


    How can I chart my BBT if I work shifts?

    It is not impossible to take your BBT if you work shifts, but it will be more challenging. Take your temperature at the time you wake up when you are most likely to have had the most sleep. Be as consistent as you can. On your days off, take your temperature after you wake up as well, even if it is at a different time. Make a note on your chart of changes in your waking schedule. You may take your temperature in the afternoon before you go to work if that is your usual waking time and the time after which you are most likely to have had the most sleep. It is not useful to take your temperature when you are already awake and active.


    Hope that helps! Ooh, and good luck with the B6--I learned of it thru some of the girls here at BB, and it also helped them with their cycles!



    issy--Hope things get worked out with your cycle.... it must be so frustrating for you!



    mollycat--We're pretty good at predicting your O, aren't we? And good for you for getting some cleaning done Could you please come do my garage next?



    Hey Toccara! Thinking of you! Hope you're having a great weekend with DH!



    Fab 3/4--Missing you all! Hope you enjoyed your weekend! Love you bunches! *kiss*
