Whoa so much has happened in the last couple of days.
It's scary how much you can miss staying offline.
I am not going to try and catch up on all the recent news as I don't have a couple of spare hours to read all the posts but I would just like to say
to those of you trying to concieve heres some
to those of you who have recently gotten a
and to those of you who have recently lost their little angel you have my love and thoughts
I got very upset last night when I couldn't post in the old thread but a very nice lady cleared that up for me this morning. I am surpirsed at how quickly I got dependant on this site. It is now apart of my life.
So far I am thinking this could be the month. I am tired, hungry and moody. Will just have to wait and see.
Hi every one, thanks for the well wishes. fingers and toes crosssed for a postive result.
Tam & Mannie: i was put on 50mg of clomid as i have PCOS and could go 12 months with out a vist from AF.and was put on Clomid to help me ovulate which it did but unfortunately i m/c at 6wks.
Clomid does incrreases the chances of multiple pregnancies and unfortunately i was pregnant with twins but did not no after my m/c i was not given a d&c and after bleeding for 38 days i decided to see my specialist who sent me to emergency where blood test showed my pregnancy hormones had tripled i thought how can this be and the dr explained that i had an ectopic peregnancyand that the baby had now made its way to my uterus and that i ould now need a d&c i was devastated and crushed i had not just been robbed of one baby but now 2.
There's not a day that goes by that i dot think of the little angels i lost, but i feel ready now to embark on that challengeing journey again. its now been almost 3 months sine my D&C and am half way through my 2WW trying so stay positive yet not get my hopes up.
Im not sure if this answers ur questions or helps but i hope that we call stay hopeful and soon be blessed with the pitter patter of little feet soon.
my thoughts are with all best of luck and talk again soon.
p.s you girls are great, i love that i can open up and tell you the things i feel but never say to others.
AJC--I'm SO curious to see whether your intuition is correct! Either way, I wish you a healthy, happy baby!
Mannie--I'm for a sticky little bean for you!
mollycat--I waited at the airport for you all night, but you didn't show up! (you were right about the new smilies--like a candy store!) I'm praying those little made it thru
mummyO3B--Praying so hard that this is your month!
Rachel B--While TTC is challenging, I'm proud of you that you're ready to embark on this journey! We'll be here to support you and you on! Hope your second half of the TWW flies by and you're blessed with a BFP! Sending lots of anti-AF vibes!
Jen - sorry, I missed the flight . Back to crappy monday. Four littlies in today, how does that song go.......wish is was sunday......... Could do with another day off. Oh Well. next weekend's a long weekend, so that will help. Jen - have you set up that force field yet. it works this time
Hi All
Am back from my health retreat and have to say it was one of the best experiences of my life. I ate fabulous food, exercised, grieved, loved and laughed. My DP has said this is the most relaxed he has ever seen me in the entire time he has known me!
I missed you all but when you have no telly, no newspapers etc they don't let you have a computer (I asked!).
The biggest news is that AF arrived so we can TTC again. I am so so happy. We go to see OB on 8 October which is the same say as Charles's memorial service. Today am going to book to see FS.
Can anyone who is TTC via IVF tell me how many cycles you had to wait for starting again after mc? I have one frostie ready, a song in my heart and a spring in my step. I am even looking forward to jabbing again!
Love to you all and the stickiest of vibes for you all.
Adele
fifi--Oooh, a trip to Scotland! That's sure to distract you and keep you occupied until the 3 weeks are up for your u/s. Sounds like you've got two awesome things to look forward to! Too bad we can't just time along--just give it a little nudge to make it go faster!
plc--Hey Frickenbutt! Yes, I'm still tickled over our new names! Hope things are well with you! Friday's chat seems like a loooooong way off! *sigh* Hope your Monday's happy instead of crappy!
Ok, mollycat, your force field is officially up and running! My Jedi training has improved my powers of the force--I've got mass skills now! You're good to go!
dellydoo--Your spa retreat sounds SO relaxing...I'm so jealous! Although I'd be lost without BB for a week! I wouldn't be breaking into the vending machines for snacks, I'd be breaking into their computer to read the posts! Congrats on AF's arrival--welcome to the bumpy roller coaster ride that is TTC! Good luck with your OB appt. on the 8th--my thoughts will be with you on that day for Charles' memorial service. Big
larz--About 2 weeks to go until your scan! Won't be long now and you'll get to see your little Sofia or Sebastian!! I'm so excited for you!! Hope the 2 weeks flies by!
smi--I'm not ready for Monday yet! Uuugghhh!!! Where did the weekend go? How's the apartment hunting going? Big for you!!
Special hugs for my girls Krystie, Angel, & plc! Love you all! *kiss* Angel, most of these are for you, but you're so sweet, I know you'll share with Krystie and plc!!
AJC - Thanks, I haven't made any plans but I should make hubby take me out more often. I have just been feeling so crap that all I want to do is stay home with a bucket. But whether has been nice and hot so trips to the beach sound good.
Jen - Thanks, been trying to find the little with my doppler, but think it is still too early. Will be much more at ease once I can hear it!
Jen I brought vitamins called the B complex which has all the vitamin b's in it including B6. I couldn't find just B6 on its own so I hope this will do. Thanks for finding that information about BBT and shift work I will start next cycle if I dont get my BFP this month. Hope things are going well with you. Not long now until you can start thats if you havent already
RachaelB FS has prescribed clomid to me as my ovaries have Polycystic features however he does not think I have the syndrome even though I have slightly elevated insulin levels. Doing some more blood tests over my next cycle whilst on clomid to see if it helps. FS also stated my level of luteal phase progesterone wasn't to good but didn't explain how to improve it. Maybe the clomid does I'm not sure.
Dellydoo Glad that AF finally turned up and that you cant start TTC again. I am so jealous of your retreat sounded sooo relaxing. I cant answer your IVF question but hope that you dont have to wait and get jump right back on the band wagon
Mannie that AF doesn't show up and you get your BFP positive.
AJC Thanks for your input on the BBT topic much appreciated. :goodluck2: with preparing the babies room in must be such a happy time for you and DH.
Well, first of all I think its my turn to shout so here?s some for everyone.
Ok now persies....
Angel - Not long to wait now hun, testing time is nearly here, wishing you loads of
Jenushka - Im so sorry to hear about the test results I m sorry I don't really know what else to say, but I hope the menevit helps...I have heard it can be very effective and congrats on the positive OPK, I have never had a positive one but I bet it must be exciting to see it come up. for your BFP babe.
Rachel B - The TWW is sooooo hard isn't it, I don't think any of us get any better at coping with the waiting. And I know what you mean about thinking about it all the time, I do have a child but I just cant seem to get my mind off falling pg with another one...its consuming every part of me at the moment. The last year of ttc has been the worst, im obsessed with it...or rather, dedicated (thanks Jen)
Mollycat - Good on you girl for getting stuck into it! I love getting rid of things, I feel like im not only decluttering my home, but my life too, my head feels less cluttered when things are sorted.
Tam - Thanks for the advice about getting my bloods done to check where I am in my cycle...Im doing exactly that tomorrow. Since Im now 2 weeks over af's due date, I think it might be a good idea...God I hope im not going through early menopause! I think it might me normal for your cervix to change position a few times throughout the day, that's why I never use it as a reliable indicator. I would say just use bbt to judge that, its very reliable and never lies!!!! I hope AF doesn't show....for either of us
AJC - I have a feeling your having a boy! I don't know why ! I have never been wrong about guessing yet...just lucky I suppose, but I certainly get a strong boy vibe with you...Any preferences???? Just a healthy happy baby would be perfect wouldnt it.
Mannie - I love watching those shows too, I grew up watching birthing video's (mum's a midwife) and I cant get enough of them...maybe there's a midwife in me after all
Mummy of 3 boys - hoping you get your BFP at the end of this cycle...
Fificlaire - Wow scottland...how lovely, that's what I love about Europe, your so close to the rest of the world...here in Aus it can take hours and hours just to get to the next town! GL for you scan, Im sure your little bean is growing strong and healthy
Dellydoo - I am soooooooo jealous of you right now, 'I want what she?s having'. Glad AF arrived and gl for the rest of your ttc journey, I hope its short and sweet.
Larz - gl with your scan too hun, everything will be great Im sure.
Steamy boiling hot day in Brisbane today - we have about 3 days of spring then straight into summer. Love the warm weather but not when I'm in the city working....
Issy - thanks for your kind thoughts ... I know there isn't much to say really but appreciate you being so supportive. I hope the blood tests give you some answers and I really hope it isn't early menopause. Are they checking hcg as well? Have you poas again?
Tam - good luck with the B vitamins. I know blackmore's make one that's b6 on it's own ... not too sure about the other brands. That one would prob be all right and will give you some extra goodies as well. GL with the clomid too
Jen - hello! I think this is my fave new smilie ... it's the tmi one... so cute! What's going on in jen-land?
Dellydoo - like the other ladies I am drooling with jealousy at your fabulous retreat! How wonderful that you are feeling so relaxed and good within yourself and positive.
AJC and PLC - hello and . It really is so lovely that you are still here keeping an eye on us.
Hello and great big to larz, mollycat, fifi, ruthie, toccara, rachel b, mummy of 3 boys, angel babies, krystielove, easha, and everyone else I may have missed - hope you all had a lovely day...
AFM - could someone please put their big boots on and give my temp a great big kick?!! It .... is .... climbing ..... soooooooo .... slooowly......!! I know I o'd over the weekend so c'mon already. At least it's climbing I suppose. Just want my lovely shiny coverline
Anyone wanna be a millionaire?? Just had an idea, invent a reusable HPT.
I know I would buy one, I just worked it out and I would save about $340 a year if I didn't buy them every month!
Don't know where that came from. Just one of the strange idea's that pop into my head!
Tam--If you don't mind my asking, how much of the B6 is in the B complex? I've been taking an extra 200 mg. capsule per day, plus there's some already in the prenatal vitamins.... not really sure how much you're supposed to take, though, but I'm sure anything will help! Good luck! Oh, and just wanted to confirm what issy said about your CP changing throughout the day...it's true that it varies throughout the day, so make sure if you're using that as an indicator that you check it at the same time everyday (or as close to the same time as possible) Hope that helps!
issy--Good luck with your BT's today! Hope you get everything all worked out with your cycle. Poor girl, you're such a trooper--keep on hanging in there!
jenushka--I'm betting that you get that shiny red coverline today!! Not much going on in "jen-land"... AF has left the building, so that's always a good thing! That means I'll be O'ing this weekend--but I've already got my BD'ing shoes on, so hopefully this is my lucky month! Not really feeling overly confident, since I've had "high" conception scores for the last 2 mo's, and BD'd on just the right days, only to be faced with that wicked evil BFN.... but I guess we'll see!
mummyO3B--What a great idea! When you become a millionaire, remember who you shared your idea with first....Sharing ideas=sharing profits! Sounds good to me, at least!
you have my love and thoughts
) but..................
GO HAWKS.....YOU BEAUTY!!!!! 
for a sticky little bean for you! 
(you were right about the new smilies--like a candy store!) I'm praying those little 
made it thru 
you on! Hope your second half of the TWW flies by and you're blessed with a BFP! Sending lots of anti-AF vibes! 
glad this one is back
a new fave
