Trying to Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ September 2006

Hi my beautiful Bunch of Ladies,

How are we all? Just wanting to come in here and see how you are all going. Miss you all something crazy.
Sorry for all those with AF, hopefully this is the last time she visits.
Congrats to those with a bFp "Sez"
Hope you catch that egg to those who are ovulating.
And big hugs to those in the tww!
But just between you and me, we are actually trying atm (yes again), just meaining letting nature take its course, am not temping or anything, and not using protection. But as long as i have it in my head that we are not "officially" trying until next year i wont go crazy with the tww and "O'ing" etc.
Crazy things have been going on around here atm, but nothing i cant handle.

I just wanna quit my job and come back here, where I was happy, where everything seemed to be normal. Rick and i didnt stress as much as we do now, The only thing good about working is the money, but even then some weeks just havnt been worth it.

Ive gotten quite sick, with suspected whooping cough (but luckily enough didnt have it), but still am sick 4weeks later!! Work seems to have taken over my life at the moment and i cant seem to find the road to take me back, iykwim.

My urge to have a baby grows so much more each day, Rick and i had a d&m about marriage the other night, and what really got me was that, i was really against marriage before i got with him, he changed my mind about it, i grew to love that "one day" we are goin to be husband and wife, but his views hasnt changed at all, he doesnt want to be married, he says he isnt ready, if he aint ready for marriage how in the hell can he be ready for a baby?? I dont get it.....it really got to me......so much it even entered my head to pack my bags......but i didnt. Then on Saturday night at a party, Rick and i caught up with a few mates we havnt seem in a few yrs, there was a couple there engagaed, but they were not planning on actually getting married, they both settled that the engagement was enough of a committment, and when Rick and i spoke about it, I said to him "thats what i have been telling you for the last 12months, thats all im after is commitment, especially if we are going to have a family, I need to know you are committed to this relationship etc", and he was like oh ok then thats not so bad! and kissed me, I have no idea what that means im way to scared to bring it up again, this whole baby and marriage thing is getting to much for me most times lately. ANd living here is driving a wedge through everything, i litterely came so close to packing my bags and saying screw this im moving home with mum, cos i couldnt handle it. But things are on the mend slowly, as more plans are made.

Oh my gosh, talk about dribbiling crap, i guess its that i havnt spoken to anyone about this at all and knew you guys would understand.

Big hugs to you all, chat soon
xxoo

OMG CONGRATULATIONS SEZ!!!!!

I am just so thrilled for you that is wonderful news, i hear you on the not wanting to celebrate to early but a line is a line my friend! Well done to you and your DH! And thanks for holding my hand next week for my scan!

Michelle, How are you going honey????

Lisa, How are you doing hope AF is still staying away and i am sending you loads and loads of ***sticky baby dust***

Shan, Im glad that your EDD birthday went as well as it could. I was thinking about you! Wow you are so lucky to be so involved with your girlfriends birth! That was so lovely but im sure that it was a hard thing to do with all that you have gone through.

Megan, Im not sure about your cycle but i was told that AF isnt officially started until its full flow. I hope that your body gets sorted soon.

Naomi, Great to see you back and i hope that everything gets sorted in your relationship very soon. I also hope that once thats done you get your BFP pronto!

Love Sarah xx

WOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO

CONGRATULATIONS SEZ!!!!!!!!!!

:dance: :clap: :thumbsup: :confetti:

I'M SOOOOOO EXCITED TO HAVE YOU COMING OVER TO PAML!!!

Tell me everything, what did DH say? Have you told your family? When are you going to see the Dr? What is your EDD going to be? Are you going to find out if you're having a girl or a boy?These are all questions that I MUST know!

Love Jayne

Wow congrats Sez that is truely wonderful :) :) :)

Thanks so much for your congrats everyone! Just seeing all your good wishes here makes it more real.

Jayne, dh is happy, but I think more nervous than me! Mind you, I did get some more comments about super-swimmers - men LOL! Haven't *officially* told anyone yet, but I did tell my mum about the m/s so she is convinced I'm pg, just haven't told her about the test yet. I will ring my Ob tomorrow to make an appt. Not sure when he'll want to see me. Last time it was quite early, before six weeks, but maybe not this time? All I know is that he will send me for an u/s @ 8 weeks. As far as I can tell, my EDD will be 01/06/07!!!!!! WOW! Don't know why but that's scary! Definitely not going to find out the sex! But we do already have our names chosen (except girl middle name). Do those answers satisfy?!!!!!!! Hope you are well today, are you *finding out*?

Lisa, how are you holding up hun? It's so stressful waiting, isn't it? I have everything possible crossed for you for Thursday. Biggest ever :hug: , can't wait to hear your news! Please come to PAML with me, I'll miss you if you don't...........

Tanya, really hope af shows up soon........maybe if we keep saying that she will! Good on you for enjoying yourself on Saturday!

Kelly, thanks for all your reassurance over the weekend. Can't wait to join you in PAML, don't think I will just yet though.

Kate, what's going on? Is thursday testing day or what? I am sending out so much baby dust for you and Lisa this week, it's not funny! Can't you smell it?!!!!!!!

Thanks Shan, I'm glad Saturday was okay for you hun. Where do you think you'll settle in Melb? I remember you saying it won't be too close to the city!!!!!! Your symptoms are sounding quite good. How late is af? When do you think you'll test? Best wishes sweets!

Thanks Megan, though some people may still class me as loopy! As far as I know, you should count your first day of *full flow* as CD1. Spotting does not count. Someone might like to correct me on that, but I'm pretty sure that's what they tell you on FF. Someone will let you know, there's a few girls on here who know more than they want to know about spotting! Do you know when you Od? I hear you on the frustration. I thought my cycle would never get back to normal after my d&c. It would appear that it didn't matter after all! I should have saved myself alot of stress LOL!

Sarah, can't wait to say hi to you in two threads! I hope you are going well and not too worried about next week.

Naomi, I don't think we've met so 'hi' and thanks for the congrats. I understand a little where you're coming from. Dh and I were together for six years before we got engaged and then got married 8 months later! Initially he just didn't want to get married, and then he did but thought I was too young. Mostly we just didn't dicuss it, and eventually it happened. I am now so glad we waited because (unfortunately!) I think he was right, I WAS very young. Once we were engaged he couldn't wait to get married, and is now so proud of his wedding ring! It really cracks me up, he's so sweet! But it's a real turnaround from a few years ago (not that we were ever unhappy, just didn't think we would get married IYKWIM?), so hang in there sweets, as long as you love each other and you are happy with Rick, it will all work out. Keep us updated :hug:

Belle, what's going on? Are those OPKs showing two lines yet? I might have to go and stalk your chart after this post LOL!

Thanks Kirsty, Michelle and Kez how are you guys going?

I want to say big big thanks to all of you lovely ladies in this thread who have kept me sane and laughing along this road! I would never wish to have a mc, but the upside is that I found all of you and now I can drag you all along to PAML with me when I'm ready to go! Please don't kick me out yet! I'm still way too nervous and scared, but at the same time, feeling quite positive about this pregnancy. So big :hug: to all of you and lots and lots of Babydust!

Belle, just checked out your chart. Try not to stress, I know it's hard. The bleeding will stop, and O day will come! I didn't O this cycle until about day 27! So although it's a long wait, it could well be worth it! :hug: for you honey.

YAY YOU SEZ!!!! How excitement!! :p
I'm sure you'll be POAS until that line is as dark as dark BUT it doesn't matter because any line will do!!!! I'm so happy to hear your news and also glad to hear that you are feeling positive about this preg. The power of positive thinking is not something to be dismissed.
Make sure you keep us all posted here-- would love to be joining you in the coming weeks! I have everything crossed for a STICKY one for you this time :crossfingers: :stickyvibesgirl:

Hello everybody,

Just quicly popping in to say hello and sprinkle lots of :bluedust:

Congratulations Sez on your BFP. I hope we some more BFPs in here soon. :)

Hi Everyone.

Hope all is well.

Sez - I'm still *buzzing* from your announcement this morning - it's the best news, we certainly needed another BFP in here. I'm sure we're going to see many, many more very soon. I'm also so glad you're feeling positive about this pg - I need to take some lessons from you in that department - I think I'm just completely mad now - it's been such a rollercoaster so far and am sure it's going to continue. I think as long as I get to 10wks and all is good, I'll feel so much better!!! We'll see. I'm so glad I'll have you to share this journey with - now we just need to get everyone else over to the PAML thread too!!!

Shan - I can't wait to hear from you again soon - everything is sounding soooo positive and I definitely think you should POAS again NOW!!!!! No pressure though - he he he he. Seriously though, I'm sure you'll be announcing your BFP in the next few days and look forward to reading about it!!!!

Lisa - How are you going?? I hope af hasn't arrived and wish you all the best for 'test' day!!!! It would be great to have another BFP to celebrate before the weekend. We're all here for you!!

Tanya - I'm not sure if I should be wishing af to arrive for you or not!!! I'm sure that one little blue spermie managed to get through and all is going to work out for you - guess we'll just have to wait it out - fun!!! Hang in there sweety and keep us updated!!

Megan - I completely understand how frustrated you are - I was in exactly the same boat - had heaps of spotting but never a full day of bleeding, so had no idea what was going on. Then one day, a normal af arrived out of the blue and next thing you know I'm POAS and getting a BFP - so hang in there sweety - it's really tough but it will be over before you know it!! We're all here for you too!!

Naomi - Hello?? I don't think we've 'offically' met!! I do wish you all the best for a speedy BFP and I'm sure all will work out with your relationship - they're hard work sometimes. GL with it all!

Hope - How are you going?? I hope all is well.

Kate - Hope all is going well - aren't you getting ready to test this week too?? I hope that nasty af stays away - we all need to move on over to PAML together, otherwise we'll miss you all far too much!

Everyone else - I'm so sorry but I'm just far too tired to go back any further and check where you're all at!!! I do think about you all all the time and hope we can get some more BFP's in here soon. Take care.

As for me - I'm alright. Still VERY up and down but generally feeling good and positive. Only one more week to go before the next scan now, which is Tuesday!!! I can't wait as I should amost be 8wks by then and my ob thinks that's when I lost the last baby (although we didn't discover it until 10wks). So if I get past the 8wk scan, I'll be feeling the tinyest - sp? - bit better. Hanging out to see that little heart beating away!!! Still no m/s, which is making me REALLY nervious still. Haven't even got sore/bigger bbs, which is really annoying!!!! I just want SOMETHING to make me feel like I'm pg and all is ok!!! My SIL is really, really sick and everyone thinks I'm crazy for wanting it but they just don't understand what it's like and it's really getting to me. She's so down about it all and about being pg and all I want is that reasurance - it's completely mad. Not to worry, in a weeks time, I'll know a little more about where I'm at.

Talk to you all soon.

Kelly xxxx

Morning all...

How is everyone today? I'm alright, just plodding along...lol

Yes, I should be testing tomorrow morning. I'm up to CD 36 which is a day longer than last month's cycle. I think it's going to be a BFN but who knows I could be wrong. I had a temp rise for the last two days and I just don't think it worked this month. The EWCM was all over the shop, no pains nothing...except for that one day I told you guys about with the metallic taste and a wave of nausea when I rolled over in the morning...other than that there has been nothing happening...it's crap! Oh well...

Our Anniversary went well, we went out for dinner to a French Restaurant in Balmain and I swear to god it was the BEST meal I have had in a long time. The food was divine and it was quite reasonably priced. Needless to say we BD'd live mental people that day *blushes*

I'm sorry I not going to do personal's - I'm soooo not good at them and I have brain strain:p I started this diet that my gf put me on (the naturopath) and I'm up to day 2 of that trying to get my head around everything...can you sense my frustration??? But so far so good.

Anyway, I hop eyou all have a fabulous day and I'll try to pop in a bit more regularly today.

Luv & hugs to you all,

Kate x.

Lisa and Belle, where are you my lovelies?

Kate, a temp rise is a GOOD thing! I think there's every chance you're pg! Can't wait to see your post tomorrow, you MUST post ASAP! I'm going to be around and about today, so make sure you pop in and tell me how you're feeling. It's just so hideous waiting, isn't it?

Lilylou, I just wanted to say thanks for checking in on me yesterday, that's so lovely of you. Even if you're not going to post, you must have an updated ticker so I can check your progress! And when you get that BFP you must post it immediately! Hope you're bding like mad...........

Kelly, when I say I'm positive about this pg, I mean I have a good gut feeling about it. I'm already a serial loo paper checker! And if I feel any wetness 'down there' my heart just sinks til I can check it out.

Thanks for the excitement and stickyvibes Hope, I'm sure it won't be long for you!

Well, I hardly feel sick at all today. Since about 4pm yesterday I've felt not too bad, and I'm trying not to get too stressed about that. I know it's very early so I'm not going to get too worried about lack of symptoms. I actually thought I might DIE from m/s yesterday morning so I guess maybe it's just giving me a day off! I still have that awful empty feeling in my stomach, yuck! Tested again with Fortel and Crystal Clear this morning, line on Fortel didn't come up for over 10 mins, and line on CC was very faint again. Was a bit worried about that so tested again with CC when I woke up properly about 45 mins ago. Line is still faint but definitely there, so I'm trying to relax a bit. I have to keep reminding myself that it's very early yet, at the most 11DPO. Dh is now very excited, thinks it's *cool* LOL!

Hope you're all having a great morning, will pop back in again today to check how everyone is :)

OMG Sez - WHOOOOOO HOOOOOOO!!! COngratulations sweety - Im so excited im going to p my pants!!! That is so wonderful - big hugs and happy dances to you my sweety, so tell me - how far / whats the edd?? OMG that is so wonderful!

Will catch up later for personals my sweets just wanted to say congrats to Sez!

PS - no af for me as yet, but tested again with a bfn!

Hi Girls,

Firstly, the most heartfelt congratulations to you Sez. Your news is wonderful. My Nausea was late in the day with Scanlon too.

Kirsty - Thanks for your suggestion. I hope you are in a really good headspace soon.

Kelly - Your DH sounds just like mine - Always busy and can not tolerate being idle. Its a blessing and a curse!

Megan - I know all about the green eyed monster after a m/c. My gf and I had due dates 2 days apart. After my m/c I could not see her for about 20 weeks. I saw her driving her car, and was in a flood of tears, and this was weeks later. I was really hard on myself for feeling this way, and I think I should have given myself permission to be angry, but it sounds like you managed lunch with your friends really well.

Lisa and Kate - Good luck with your testing on Thursday.

Sarah - Thanks for the info on your friend from mothers group. I would like to continue to feed Scanlon for as long as possible, perhaps even after we have our second baby, just like your friend.

Shan - sounds hopeful for a BFP. Good luck.

Me - Not much is happening. Expect to O before the weekend - maybe. Still BDing. Poor DH is suffering a bit of performance anxiety though. Its really hard work for him. I feel bad for him, but he reminds me that we will both feel worse if AF arrives, and we did'nt try as hard as we could have. He is so wonderful......sigh.

Ciao for now.

Paige

Morning Girls...

Thanks for everyone's thoughts....

Sez, we're looking at Sunbury, so that's a good thing, I think !!!...any other BB girls from Sunbury here?????

Kelly...thanks, and it just so happens that I poas this morning coz the last time i can remember have sore bb's like this was when i was pg with my angel, but alas, it was a BFN again...oh well...maybe i'm one of those that a +ive won't show up for a while...DH thinks i should go and have a bt, but i'm a bit reserved. I'm more than happy to just ride it out...

Big hello's and hugs to everyone else...xxxxxxx

Hi girls,

Sez - so glad your not feeling well LOL!! But its a great sign sweety. Im so glad that you are feeling so positive and I guess you know in your heart that this bubba will be okay and will arrive nice and safely in June next year!!


Paige - I bet you cant wait for the weekend so you can get some serious bd in! I hope DH can rise to the occasion LOL!! I shouldnt joke hun but get him to think its all about making love to his beautiful wife instead of making a baby!

Kate - best of luck for the testing sweety I really hope you will join Sez in PAML this week!

Shan - How are you going hun? Any more happening? When will you be testing? Sunbury is great - I live about 20mins from there - DH and I always go there for dinner at Angelino's restaurant, our friend is the chef and the food is scrumptious. Dont hestitate to ask q's about Melb - happy to help you find your way around :)

Kelly - nearly 8wks already? Dont stress hun im sure the lack of m/s is nothing but good fortune, but I know how you feel about having 'something' to go on. My bf had really bad nausea for most of the day and she even stopped work because of it, but unfortunately she lost her precious little one so the m/s means nothing. give yourself a belly rub from me, sending you loads of positive vibes.

Naomi - hello sweets - oh your poor love. I hope things settle soon with Rick and that you guys find your way through all of this together and then you can find your path to parenthood. I hope its soon for you sweety.

Megan - I hope your body sorts itself out soon hun. It can take a bit of time for things to get back to normal, so try not to stress too much. And big hugs to you for being so brave during your lunch with your girlfriends.

Chepie - hi there, I had an ectopic and lost my right tube in Dec last year. My dr told me to wait for one normal af before trying again - because I didnt have the meth injection it was safe to start ttc after my first af. having said that - my first af didnt arrive for 10 weeks after the surgery! So we didnt really start trying until May this year. GIve yourself some time to heal emtionally and physically and try whenever you feel ready. Best of luck sweety.

Hope - welcome hun, iVe been MIA so havent had a chance to welcome you as yet. I really hope that its third time lucky for you!

Jayne - OMG before we know it this little bubba is going to arrive!! Im so glad the scan went well :) How is Jess doing? She sounds sooo cute.

Sarah - how are you going sweets? You are nearly 7wks pg and how do you feel?? any sickness etc?

Tanya - how you feeling? I still reckon you will get a suprise bfp this month! hehehheee

Lilylou- hello and welcome - how are you going?


I think that covers everyone! I think af is about to hit - it should be here before the day is out - but thats okay as im really excited about this new cycle as my naturopath thinks my body is ready so hopefully it will be positive hpt in either Oct or Nov!!

Love to you all,
Lisa

Hey girls... how are we all after Steve's memorial? I shed a few (lots) of tears! Every time they showed Terri and the kids I couldn't help it! *sniff sniff*

Oh Lisa, I hope Af stays away!!!!!!! NO AF!!!

Shan Ihope that second line is just hiding on you!! GL!

Paige... LOL @ wearing poor DH out ;) that's what we like to hear!! I hope he did the job.

Oooeerr Kate, gl for tomorrow. Congrats on your anniversary too :) Glad you had a good night!

TL
Tanya

Oh tanya I missed the memorial cause of work but im taping it so I can watch it when I get home - after I go and see my granny who has arrived home after 6 months of being in europe - she spends summer here and goes there when it gets cold here! Lucky devil!

I think they are repeating it on ABC @ 6pm.

I'm gonna miss the memorial - again!! I'm at work in the day and I'm not going to be home until after 7 tonight!!! Not fair!!! I was reading the writeups in the papers on line and it's soo sad...I had to really keep myself under control so I didn't cry.

Don't worry girls, you guys will be the first to know either way. Even if it's a neg I'm going to test again on Sunday as that will be CD40 and if AF isn't here by then, I'm sure I'll be ready for the little white jacket and those fetching straps...accompanied by rather burly looking men and a big white truck...lol.

Hi guys,

How are you doing today sez??

Lisa, I cant believe it was another BFN, at least you have the advice from your naturopath to rely on. Thinking of you.

Michelle, How are you doing matey?

Shan, Sorry you got another BFN. How long has this cycle been for you?

Kate, GL when you test again.

Tanya, how is your boy diet going?

Belle, Where are you chicky and what are you up to?

Hi to everyone else...sorry for not many personals as i am trying to remember everything today. Hope you are all well and that you all get BFP's very very soon.

Love Sarah xx

Hi Sarah....yeah i know, bummer about the BFN....not sure exactly what CD i'm up to, but i know that i was one day behind Danni, and she's just gone 8w2days, so i'm guessing about CD60 or something....hate that hey!!

Thanks Lisa - oohh goodie, you're not too far away. Thanks for the offer to help me find my way around, but i know Melbs pretty well, so i should be right....thanks again...ps. I might have to try that restaurant once we get down there!!

Belle, where are you chick? Hope you are just very busy at work! Thinking of you.......

Lisa, tip for you (and everyone else) I have found that although I have had a few +lines the clearest was on Discover, the one that says "test five days before your period". BTW, I still feel like af is going to arrive...........!

Paige, you poor dh LOL! I'm sure it will pay off for you both!

Shan, at least Sunbury is a little 'rural' for you, but not too far from the city! Soory, I'm on the other side of town, ages away!

Tanya, any sign of af arriving?

Sarah, hope you are all well over in Busselton!

Well, I'm excited coz I'm off to see my brother play in the Cat Empire tonight at the POW in St Kilda, Ross's band are supporting them too, so it should be great! They are all sooooo good live! Looks like I'll be doing the driving though........!

Hardly any m/s at all today, so I hope all is good! Trying not to worry! Took my two nephews out for lunch, they are 12 and almost 10. Boys are so revolting, but I can't help but spoil them rotten, I love them so much! So that was a good distraction for me! Dh wants to wait until we get 'a good, strong line' before telling anyone at all, so for now it's just between us....and BB!

Chat tomorrow lovelies! Sez xoxo

Just missed your post Shan! I can understand your dh wanting you to get a bt, but good on you for riding it out........you are a very strong woman! :hug:

Hi all!
Big trouble for me today - spent way too much money shopping, i am a shocker when i am on holidays! Too many clothes!
Shan - I actually work in sunbury and dh is from there so i know it very well - ask away if you want to know anything.
Not much to report today....still waiting! Thanks Lisa, Paige, Sarah, Sez and Kelly (think i got you all) for all your words of support in the last few days. I know i have to not stress about no af but its so hard, i am not sleeping very well because it is always on my mind. I really want a normal cycle! How long did it take before all yours finally rolled up?
Sez i can't believe how many tests you have done, very funny! Do you actually believe it yet???
Have a good night all!

Megan,
I'm a '76 model as well-- what a fab year it must of been!!! How frustrating that AF is not cooperating! Were you really regular beforehand? Mine has just left the building and it was my first after my d&c five weeks ago (so it came about 30 days later). It wasn't that heavy but was much "brighter" in colour than usual (sorry if TMI). AF really is adding insult to injury by making you wait. I have found the whole feeling of powerlessness (over my bod) one of the hardest things to deal with in this whole scenario-- why can't they just do what they are supposed to do!!???
I hope that you are not left hanging too much longer.
Sez,
Glad to hear that you've been feeling ill! Just think what you've been through to feel this sick!
KellyM,
How much does the wait for the scan SUCK!!! I'm sure your little jelly bean is in there doing exactly what it is supposed to!
LisaL,
Thanks for the welcome. You'll be glad you missed the memorial service--- soooo sad! especially when John Williamson sang "True Blue". If you're anywhere near as emotional as I am at the mo you would've been a mess!
Paige,
Glad to hear I'm not the only one who thinks their pets are their children. If I don't have any luck with this baby business I may just have to start dressing up the pets, making them wear shoes and sit in a baby seat in the car!! Jokes!

Hi Megan, if you don't mind me asking, where abouts do you work?....if you don't want to put it in here or let me know, i'll understand, but feel free to email me (just let me know and i'll get you my addy!!)

Hi Shan, I work at one of the schools in Sunbury. Have been there about 7 years! Let me know if you need to know anything about the area. Are you definately moving there?

Thanks Hope! I feel better knowing people get as frustrated and "over it" as me - not that i want anyone to be frustrated but it makes me feel like i'm not going crazy. I am not even really sure if i am ready to ttc again, well i am ready to be preg but i am not ready to m/c again (not that anyone ever is i know) if that makes sense. I really just want my body back to normal and i need to know i can try again if i feel like it. At the moment i am just stuck in a very annoying place!

P.S Hope - I hope you cope with 30 better than me!!

Sez,
Of course I'm checking on you, have been stalking this thread all week waiting for your news. :) I will definetly keep you up to date with me, (I did a post a couple of days ago in this thread re: my chart F.F, don't know how to link it to my sign. dumb :doh: ) Should have been bding today but dp left for work too early this morning and he still not home now :angry: Bloody men.
Have a good night tonight, I'm jealous. Can't even get you to have a drink for me :rolleyes:
To all of you testing this week, good luck. (Sorry, I have a hopeless memory, will take me forever to remember everyones names).

Thanks Megan! 30 is actually only 8 weeks away--aarrrgh! I'm hoping I'll magically become the mature adult I'm sure I'm destined to be-- what do you reckon!? :p

Hi Lilylou, bloody men indeed! Hope your dh got home at a decent enough hour to do the BD! Linking your chart to your sig is actually quite easy. Just go to your chart, on the left-hand side of the page hover over the sharing tab and then click on home page setup. Your charting hompage setup address is at the top of the page, just copy it and paste it into your sig! Let me know if you need anymore help!

Must run, BBL to catch up with everyone! :hug:

Morning all,

Just some news...I tested this morning and it came back negative. I have had another temp rise so I dare say AF is on her way. I'm ok with it, I'm not sad or anything, actually don't feel anything (so to speak). So hopefully next month will be the one. Once AF arrives I'm not going to temp anymore b/c I think all this is making me a touch obsessed. So as of the day that AF either arrives or disappears I'm just going to take the approach of BDing as often as we can.

Thanks to everyone for your encouragement and support throughout the last couple of weeks.

I'll pop back in later today.

Luv & hugs,

Kate x.

Kate... sorry about the BFN :( , but a temp rise is usually a good thing when AF is due, so hang in there!

Sooooo tired! Violet was up most of the night... She has a cold so I brought her into my bed and she just tossed and tossed!! Urgh!

Tanya

Kate, temp rising is GOOD! I need you to have a chart or ticker on your sig so I check out what's going on! How may DPO are you, and when do you think af is due? Remember, some people take ages to get a BFP POAS. What brand did you use? I still think you're in with a shot......

Lisa honey, how are you going? You know I'm dying for you to pop your head in! :hug:

Belle, you had better show your face today, or I'm going to get seriously worried! Just let us know you're around......

Megan, LOL at me doing all the tests! Wait til it's Belle's turn, she'll be worse........! I'm such a POAS addict, I love seeing the two lines come up! Also DH doesn't want to share the news until he can see a darker line, so I'm frantically trying different brands in the hope that one will come up sufficiently dark LOL! Has af showed her face properly yet?

Hope, I could do with feeling a little more ill! I'm trying to get the notion out of my head that m/s means everything is okay. I know it doesn't mean squat for some people, and I am still having some nausea, so trying not to worry. I think i am just one step away from dressing up my baby Emma and putting her in a car seat! She really thinks she's human, which is our fault of course, especially as we let her sleep you-know-where! Naughty! What pets do you have?

Shan, I'm really going crazy wondering what's going on with you! Any other signs?

Tanya, hope Violet is okay, sorry you didn't get more sleep!

Kelly, only 5 sleeps to go YAY!

Sarah, looking forward to Monday and hearing all about your results, hope you aren't feeling too bad!

Big hi to everyone else, better go and get out of my pjs and into the shower! Having lunch with my bf today, haven't seen her for about 8 weeks as she's been working 4 hours away! She's back for 2 months and then going to Canada for 5 months :crying: so I have to make the most of her being here. She's a PS teacher so on hols ATM lucky her!

Will be dropping in all day to check how things are going.........

Morning girls,

Hope you are all well.

Scanlon is having his morning sleep and I just baked choc chip and sultana and oat cookies so I am feeling like I can take the rest of the day off!!

Lisa - I hope AF does not arrive and your BFP is just hiding from you!

Megan - AF arrived 6 weeks after my D&C. I think they say that it can take up to 10 or 12?
I hope the witch arrives soon for you.

Hope - I know what you mean about feeling that your body has let you down. I dont think there is a simple way to remedy that. You just have to take it easy and be kind to yourself.

Kate - I hope the temp rise is a good thing. I have never monitored my temp, but I imagine that it could play with your mind abit.

Tanya - Poor Violet! Scanlon has not had his first cold yet (I am anal about others touching his toys - I am always disinfecting them and rubbing my hands in antibacterial gel. Some say that I am doing him a disservice but I would like to avoid a cold until he is a year old and can cope with it a bit better). I hope you get some sleep.

Sez - Our dogs are in the bed too! DH and I resolve not to let them in again every time I change the sheets, but it never lasts! I hope you get that dark line soon. I will not say dont stress about not having as much nausea as you would like, because it is impossible, and you find something else to stress about - well I did anyway.

Same old at this end. DH is continuing to work very hard in the BD department (LOL at your jokes - I really did ask for it didn't I?).
On Sunrise this morning they talked about pregnant women avoiding unnecessary ultrasounds for fear of injury to the feotus. I emailed them to ask for the relevant information - will let you know if I get a reply. I found info, but it is a bit old here:

Ciao for now.

Hello gals,

Another quick update (will be back later for personals) on me...

AF still hasnt arrived but I keep thinking its going to hit any second, but ive been feeling that for a few days now. But I just went to the loo and sorry if tmi but i noticed my urine is really really yellow - sometimes before af when I wipe there is a different tinge of colour on the paper but this one is jsut yellow. Sorry I know thats pretty off but im just wondering what is going on. I havent done another test and Im thinking about calling the naturopath to see what is happening. My cycles before I became pg last year always came on the 22nd of the month. Since then af starting to arrive on the 13th and then it chagned to betwen 16th and 19th of each month, is it possible that my cycle is reverting back to the 22nd??

I dont want to do another hpt but im sicking of waiting (Shan - I dont know how you do it!)

Catch you all later,
Lisa

Lisa, my wee has been really yellow! And I have been feeling like af is going to hit any second! Really really badly! I think you should call your naturopath, but also POAS and if nothing there go get a bt!!!!!!!! I feel sick for you, please go and do SOMETHING or I'm going to go crazy! (I'm sure you're feeling even worse!)

Paige, did you kick your dogs out of the bed before Scanlon was born? I keep telling dh that Emma needs to get off before I get too big, and before the baby arrives!

Lisa, you must get back to me, go and POAS NOW LOL!

Okay guys I'm crying! I just made my Ob appt. and he's going to be away for about 10 days either side of my EDD! I'm really upset, I know these things happen, and his associate is really nice and good too, but I love my Ob! **** **** **** SORRY just had to vent!

Oh Sez - maybe bub will arrive early or late so you can have your ob?? Im sorry hun that this has worked out like this but you say his associate is really nice? Maybe you should see him (or her) too during the pregnancy so you can get really to know them and they can get to know your bub, and that way you will feel really comfortable and confident when birth time arrives. Im sure that your ob will leave you in good hands sweety. When is your first ob appt?

You crack me up!! Im at work so I cant run out and POAS! But I did ring the naturopath and she is going to call me back to discuss what might be happening (this is my first cycle with her so it might be that my body is adjusting?). Ohhhh I am so nervous now that you told me about your yellow pee!! OMG can you believe that my life has come to this? Getting nervous about the different tinge on one's pee?? I need a life!!! LOL! PS is it smelly pee? :cryinglaugh:

I know, don't we all need a life! I am having a foul day, I just want to cry and cry. It's crazy!

I know it could be your body adjusting to the natural therapies, but I'm still hopeful for you! Yes my wee stinks, even dh has commented! Sorry girls I know that's WAAAAY TMI! Make sure you're drinking plenty of water. Can you post from home after you speak to your naturopath and let us know what she says?

As for my Ob, I will definitely make sure I get to know his associate during my pg. I know that even if he wasn't going away, I could still have the bub on his rostered weekend off, or when he's at another birth etc etc. It's just rotten timing. And you're right, I might have bubs early or late, time will only tell!

I can't bear the suspense of your situation, I don't know how you are working! Thinking of you........:hug:

Kate, what's going on?
