Oh My Golly Gosh - It's so quiet on here today. I'm having one of "those" days. Not quite sure what I want to do. ATM I have three littlies in (two more due to arrive soon), baby in bed, 2 x Mr 2yo's are "reading". One of them actually put all the toys away (not sure what was going on in his mind yet). I'm sure when the other two kids arrive shortly, all the toys will come out again. It's too hot to take them outside now, so they'll have to wait until this afternoon. We've drawn pictures and when the others arrive we'll do some other stuff.
I'm still on my "cleaning streak". I went through DH's cupboard yesterday and sent a few bags of clothes along to the charity bin, filled another bag with rubbish, and started on my stuff. The boys are going camping for the weekend (three days alone ) I've got plans to go through the boys room while they're away.
Jen - good thing my DH doesn't read this he'd be so jealous - twice before noon (he's dream).
Smilanatu - I hope things work out for you, whatever you decide to do about Lee. Always remember to do what's right for you and be selfish when it comes to things like this. I was once with a guy for 4 years and engaged and I always wanted out but could never find a way to break free. I ended it 5 months before the wedding and have never looked back, was such a reflief. Now I have a wonderful hubby whom I adore..... with everything
Well things didn't go so well today i got the BT results and i didn't ovulate, im crushed i was devastated. i burst into tears the minute i got out of the dr's surgery.
im now going to have to go on 2 clomid tablets a day now which is 100mg. Dr said i can start the clomid again next week. which im going to do and pray that it works.
my poor DH my moods are going to be terrible, they were bad with 1 tablet. has anyone had side effects to the clomid?? i have mood swings, nausea, insomnia and really bad hot flushes especially of a night.
What's the deal? There's only 5 posts total since my last posts from yesterday!! Where the heck is everyone? It's looking like a ghost town around here! Did someone forget to take down the sign??
smi--Hope things work out one way or the other with Lee--whatever you decide to do will be right for you! It's so hard starting over, and really hard when you still have to face that person on a daily basis like you do! Big hugs... I know it can't be easy! You've got to be getting tired of all your emotions! You're a strong, beautiful woman, so don't conform to who/what others want you to be--be true to yourself!!
mollycat--Sounds like you've been invaded by the psycho cleaning fairy again! OMG... 3 days alone without the boys? Lucky you--now I'm really jealous! I could get SO much done around the house in 3 days with no kids! I'm still waiting for you to start on my house!
Hey, WTH! Hope things are well with you!
larz--Bellyrubs and
Rachel B--So sorry to hear you didn't O... I pray that the increase in the Clomid helps to bring you your forever baby!
Angel--I'm praying that all our and are working! Waiting to hear the great news! Hope you and DF enjoyed your Anniversary! *kiss*
I am new to this and not sure if I landed at the right spot...
I had 2 m/c this year (at 6 weeks and at 9 weeks) and I'm trying to cope with it (not always easy). I've just started TTC again this month (my last miscarriage was in August) and I should be 8 or 9 dpo so far, so next week should bring more news...
Milla - sorry you have to be here but hoping you end up with a BFP and big preggie belly real soon.
Rachel.B - sorry to hear the 50mg didn't make you O. This bub is a clomid bub so am a big clomid fan here. I just took 2 x months of 50mg and had very gentle side effects (headaches, mood swings etc). Although DH probably wouldn't say that the mood swings were gentle this month is better for you.
Milla - - sorry to hear of your losses, you are in the right place now. These girls are fantastic, and usually much more talkative! I look forward to getting to know you.
Jen - hello!! Gearing up for the bd marathon?!! Good luck catching the
Rachel- so sorry to hear about your bt results. I hope that the extra dose of clomid gives you your bfp, and is gentle on you too.
and hello to hannah, smi, mollycat, larz, fifi, easha, dellydoo and ajc and the rest of you gorgeous girlies!
afm - 6 dpo so stuck firmly in the . Don't know why but I feel really positive - even though ff only gave us a "good" score this month. Bought a 3 pack of first response this morning and will now spend the next week or so trying not to use them!!
Well its 06.30AM! I've been at work for half hour or ready. I hate early mornings!! Getting up at 5am doesnt do me any good!
Good thing tho, this is my last day at work before my nice week off with DF in Scotland. I'm so looking forward to it!!!!
The morning sickness seems to have eased slightly, although the heartburn is still lurking quite badly, seems to be with everything i eat at the moment.
This may be my last post before i disappear for a week as i have so much to do before we go, but will try get another one in!!!
I want to read of lots of when i get back so here is some Just for luck.
thank you so much for the warm welcome!! It made me really happy when I logged on this morning.
It feels so good to be around women who have gone through the same; I feel like I don't have to explain anything. I think some of my friends don't understand why I still feel sad on certain days - they cheer me up to look forward and be positive, and that m/c happen all the time etc. I know that of course, and they mean well, no doubt about it, but it's a different thing alltogether when it happens to you. There are some days I believe I will never ever get pregnant (today might be such a day...:-( but on others, I'm really positive. These ups and downs are very exhausting...
Last week was especially hard, as I found out that my miscarried baby (the August one at 9 weeks) was a girl, and that there was no chromosomal abnormality. There must have been a problem with the implantation or a random complication, the doctors couldn't tell me. I am seeing a m/c specialist now, and it appears that I have the MTHFR mutation (but only heterozygotous). My doctor wants to put me on heparin as soon as I am pregnant again. During my last pregnancy, I also got heparin shots, but at a later stage, and I think it was too late already.
I try to take good care of myself and have started Yoga and Pilates to calm down my nerves
We'll see what the next days will bring. I must be 9dpo by now...
I am really looking forward to getting to know all of you! One newbie question: where do I get the little angel baby symbols for the signature?
Well I would love to be able to come on and tell you all that the POAS was positive but they havent been. I still have a few days to go and the "signs" are stronger and stronger.... BBs today were aching something cronic... so much so that i felt like I needed to hold onto them as we were walking around.
So while i cant annouce a BFP.... I m not giving up yet. My normal cycle is 25 days which has been and gone however clomid changes it so who knows.... I had the IUI on Monday so the 2ww is not up until the 6th.
So thank you to everyone from the bottom of my heart..... for all or your well wishes..... As soon as I know I will let everyone know.....
Fifi - Have a great time in Scotland. I'm so jealous. Can't wait to hear all about it when you get back.
Angel - Still for you and Gabby. Those signs sound promising. just for you.
I've got 2 days before AF is due and DH made me promise I wouldn't test before then. I'm not sure whats going on with my body. I don't really feel pregnant but I have no pre-menstrual symptoms either. Will let you all know one way or the other when I know.
Thanks for the well wishes, it means a lot to have you girls to talk to. Im going to start the 100mg(2tablets) of clomid on thursday and pray to god it works, im trying so stay positive without getting to obsessed about it but as you all know it can be very hard not to obsess.
Milla: welcome, your definately in the right place the girls here are great. They are great listeners and offer lots of support and encouragement.
Angel babies: good luck on the 6th i pray you get a BFP.
Jenushka: Good luck with your 2ww i pray you get a BFP. Dont worry if you use the tests i was so bad during my first 2ww when i found out i ovulated i brought a 3 pack and when it said yes i couldn't believe it so over 2 days DH and i did 7 tests 3 different brands just to make sure.
Angel that little Gabby is settling him/herself in nice and tight and you'll get a great result on Monday.
Rachel B. All the best with the new dosage of clomid on Thursday. Luckily when I was on it, my side effects weren't too bad. Mainly headaches.
HannahD - for the next two days. Hoping you get a nice BFP.
Fifi - Have a great time in Scotland. One of my friends who lives over here but comes from Scotland, has just gone back for a months holiday.
Jenushka - hope that you get one of these
Milla - welcome: you've certainly found the right spot. This is the most supportive bunch of women around. They'll laugh with you and cry with you and there's always a shoulder to lean on when you need it. I'm so sorry that you had to find us and really hope your stay here is very short (that sounds terrible doesn't it). But I mean it in the nicest possible way.
Jen - Where we're you when I was sleeping? Usually there's at least one hello from you. What I'm doing up so early on a Saturday beats me. Just can't sleep. The house is just "so" quiet. Now where to start cleaning........... I'm thinking of buying DS1 a new bed. He has a king single loft bed (which we've tucked DS2's bed under), but he's complaining that he's hot (he is pretty close to the ceiling). Just trying to work out if we can fit everything in their room. Would be so much easier if the new room was done and I could separate them. I'm really doing some pushing on that one. Maybe next weekend we can get it ready to do the walls. I've got a new little bub starting in a couple of weeks. This is the little one that was born just before my angelbub was due. I think it's going to be pretty hard to start with, everytime I look at her, I think about where mine should be.
Hi, Milla--Welcome... I'm so sorry to hear of your losses, and especially sorry to hear about your baby girl that you recently lost. It's so hard either way--whether you have the answers or not, the grief of what you've gone through and what you've lost will always have an impact on you. I'm glad to hear your friends are supportive of you... it can be tricky with someone who hasn't experienced such a loss. You'll find there are some that are helpful, and those that don't know what to say, so they just completely ignore it. I found it so much easier to deal with my emotions once I found this place and these girls! I that we're able to offer you the same type of support! I pray that your TTC journey is short and sweet and that the Heparin helps bring you your forever baby. Big
fifi--You lucky dog! Enjoy your week in Scotland! Glad to hear the m/s has eased some, hope it stops completely real soon. Which is the lesser of two evils? M/S or heartburn? Have a fun, safe trip! Will catch up when you get back!
AJC--Hey sweetie! I'm so grateful that you're always popping in! It's been a while since you've given us an update.... how's things with you and your little growing bean? When's the next scan?
plc--Glad you made it into chat this am! Wish it happened more often than once a week! *kiss* Here's a from a crazy American!
