Hey Jen, thanks for that I hoping really hard that this cycle is the one for you too!
I haven't spoke to the FS about the cyst - will do that next week I think - but from what I can gather it is not a really big one at 2.3cm and they reckon that most of them go away of their own accord, which is probably what mine is doing. I think they only biposy or surgically remove the really big ones. I am planning on asking for another u/s to check that it is getting smaller and not growing though, I'm thinking I would like to have that done before the end of this cycle. I don't know for sure whether Clomid caused it, but my instinct is telling me that yes it did. I reckon I didn't ovulate last cycle (I don't know if you remember, but I had a low prog last cycle at 7 DPO) and that the follicle has turned into the cyst. So if I'm right, there's no way I'm taking more Clomid - what a waste of time it has been
But I'm holding on to a tiny bit of hope that we just didn't see ovulation on the tracking blood tests, maybe we might just be lucky. But on the other hand the realist in me tells me that I may as well just prepare myself for IVF because that is more than likely what we'll end up having to do. Oh well, things could be worse I guess. At least we have IVF easily available to us, we can afford to do it, and it will increase our chances of success. We already have a gorgeous DD too, so at least we have a track record so to speak
Tut - I hated the dreams last time although mine were a bit raunchy..... I used to tell DH about them and he would be concerned I was turning into some sex crazed person.
Chappas - how frustrating for you to get a BFN and still have no AF.... hope it sorts itself out one way or another
Pbstar - mini yayayayayaya !!! I will keep my major applause until Sunday. In the meantime
Megsmum - what a postive attitude you have with everything you have been through. I can see a little bub for you in no time
Jen - yay for B6 - yes I did get a tentative coverline today
AFM - got the tentative coverline today which means I ov on day 15 yayayay. I am a little concerned with my temps though as they sharply rose then have dropped again. My gyno reckons my temp should increase everyday for the first 2-3 days, mine is doing the opposite. I also only got a "good" for BD timing this time - oh well cant change that now, Please stalk my chart and let me know your thoughts
Will have to just sit tight but I refuse to overcomplicate things this time. Maybe the will just pop up
easha- thanks for your mini yay! wow i hear you on the raunchy dreams i had such a full on one last night, poor dh loved hearing about it but got let down because i am trying to hold off on sex until i speak to my doctor about whether i should or not during the first 12 weeks...yay for o for you, hope your tww flies by. good to hear you are not stressing about the temps and stuff, mine have never behaved so i stopped doing it altogether a few months ago
megsmum- sorry to hear you are having a rough time, keep your chin up and try to stay focused on those positives you mentioned. so hard that you get lucky this month
jen and plc- thanks for your pep talks, am starting to let it sink it a little bit...jen you crack me up with the indestructible cheerleader!
Krystie- am sure it is just too early for you, i'm with jen, go back to even days
Jen - Just cause I'm a teacher, that doesn't mean I can count!!
Sorry chart whisperer. I am going to have to disagree with you (and FF) on my O day. Got EWCM last night, and a huge clump this morning just before 9am. So what's going on with that? cause my temp has started to rise I think. Unless Sunday was an off temp cause I was an hour early checking it.
I was using OPK's twice a day, around the same time each day if possible. About 10am and about 6pm or 7pm.
No i'm not leaving you guys just yet, tomorrow after school, but don't know if I'll have time to post after school. Perhaps I'll jump on dad's computer at night (we're sleeping at dad's Friday night so we can leave early Sat morn).
I have PMed my mobile number to most of you. Please keep me up to date while I am off swooshing!! If I haven't PMed you, please let me know so I can PM you my mobile number. It's a pain cause I can only PM one person at a time, so I may have skipped over some of you by accident.
Thanks!! Chat tonight some more before I head of tomorrow.
easha - that is unusual for this thread, I agree! hun, if you can stay up another 20 mins or so, log onto chat in "miscarriage" room and I'm sure those wicked girls will be in there
Easha and Joey - So nice to see you two back! We've missed you
Easha - Good news about you ovulating earlier this month. I'm glad the B6 seems to be helping you. I wish I could ski. I've never been skiing, but I would love to try it on a trpical island sometime (I hate the cold!)
Not sure what your misbehaving temps are doing...
Joey - Oh nana! You poor thing with the 11-12 bedtimes! You must have been too tired to knit! :O Hehehe. I'm glad you had a great time.
Mollycat - Yay for re-registration going well and being over now! How often do you have to have the inspections? Don't cave in with the POAS like me! Two negatives so far, grrrr!
Tutmae - Honey! Embrace your pregnancy! We're all so super happy for you and I would hate for you to miss out on even one precious moment of you pregnancy. I know it doesn't help for us to tell you not to worry, but 3even if you have to let some of the worry in, remember that there is a little person inside you the loves their mummy and wants to to be as happy as she can
Jenushka - Hello my little trooper! I think you are being so amazingly strong and brave and I am super proud of you. I know how hard things must be for you at the moment, and I am so glad that you found the strength to post with us again. I think seeing a counsellor is a fantastic idea, and I'm pretty sure if I were in the same situation that I would be doing exactly the same thing. Huge hugs for you sweetheart
plc - Hello "special" friend
Angel - Better give those strained fingers of yours a massage, this was just a practise run for the "REAL" testing day when I'm going to get TWO lines!!!
PS. Ok I get the hint. I need to update the cycle list :P
Sandygirl - Hi cycle buddy! Apparently my BFP is waiting for you to test with me! Hehehehe! Oh, and I kinda follow Angel's theory on POAS, lol. I find it kind of lets me down easy and eases me into the BFNs. But not this month I'm sure
Chappas - Keep up that excessive peeing!!! No af!
Jen - If you are ovulating soon then you better stop crossing "everything" for me!!! Uncross those legs and wrap them around your skydiving, bald headed, sexy sunglasses wearing MAN!
Hmmm, now how could I have been so wrong about the "odd" days when I had such good reasons to back it up?! How could I be so blind as to not realise that "evens" is my lucky days?! *sigh*
Toccara - Oh I've heard some horrid things about the BC shot! I hope it didn't mess with you too much, but from what you've written it obviously wasn't a walk in the park...
Smi - Stupid stupid BFMFFFF!!! Sorry sweetness
My best friend has always reallllly wanted to get a PT Cruiser. She adores them hehehe.
Megsmum - Sorry you plans didn't go exactly to plan Hopefully you've snuck in a sneaky BFP before the need for IVF. But if not, then I just want to wish you all the best with the IVF and I really hope that it is a raging success and that you fall pregnant straight away!
WTH - How are you sweetness? You've been mia for a while and I've missed you
AFM - By bb's are a bit sorer today, so am really hoping that the testing was just done too early. Will try to be strong and not test tomorrow. But it's going to be hard considering that I'm going to have to switch over to even days, and well.... tomorrow is an even day!!!
BB.... firstly.... who are the wicked girls... couldnt be me your talking about.... and yes.. i m sittin in the room.. but i m not the wicked one.
Krystie... nooo it wasnt meant as a hint... i dont do hints.. i would just come straight out and say something.... goodness.. you should know that by now
Easha: Come to think of it, my dreams have been quite raunchy.... hmmmm, musy have been repressing them as I have told DH no dancing until 2nd trimester. Cos I'm a cautious chicken! Also, FF told me I had a low chance of concieving this cycle and my temos were wacky, but look what went and happened!! for ya hon!!
Jenushka: Big huge massive for you darlin. Words cannot express how sorry I am that you're going through this!! But you are such a strong beautiful person, I have no doubt you will get through it!!
Jen and co:
Five things you may not know about me:
1- My favourite colour is red (pretty much all I wear is red and black- mostly cos black is slimming and you can't tell if you've spilled food on it which I do A LOT! And red is happy and bright and fun!)
2- When I was growing up my mother was Buddhist, therefore I was raised with those beliefs, even though I went to an Anglican school (where my best friend in high school told me I was going to hell and made me saaaad)!!
3- My DH and I dated for 4 weeks before moving in together and 2 weeks later he proposed. Awwww. try not to vomit.
4- My father is a journalist and was a Cleo Bachelor of the Year Nominee when I was little girl (much embarrassment ensued for me)
5- I cut my own hair when I get anxious/hormonal/bored/sleepy/awake/thoughtful/breathing. DH has learned to cope and I think he's happy as I never go to hair dressers and pay ridiculous amounts for haircuts!
Hmmm, there's probably more but I'm fairly boring.... I just re-read that and yawned, but I'm still going to continue with an.....
AFM: My belly has popped out! Seriously!! I don't know how I'm going to cover this up for the next 7 1/2 weeks, I already look 4mths. It seemed to happen overnight. At first I thought I'd just gotten fat (despite my diet) then I felt my belly and it's all hard and looked again and it's ROUND (not fat blobby, but defined roundness!!). WHAT?! I heard you pop out earlier with your second, but at 4 1/2 weeks!! Geez! Looks like a big bubba for me!
KL: Aw, thanks hon!! Actually starting to relax a bit now, considering I'm starting to resemble a blimp! BIG And, you know, you wouldn't want to wait 3 WHOLE DAYS to poas again, so I'm just going to shout TOMORROW FMU!!!
tut...not a boring list at all! How cute your tummy must be...picture time!
I think our list should have been 10 or 20 things you don't know about me...LOL
Krystie...I always though PT Cruisers were super cute BUT now I want something else...I am forever changing my mind (you just learned something else about me...indecisive *wink*)
Well having had my lap/ dye they have told me I do not have endometriosis but I do have polycystic ovaries... they have burnt/ drilled away asmuch as possible and have advised us to ttc in the next 6 months and if nothing happens to return for another op...
I do not have to use chlomid yet and currently I'm glad as I'm so sore and upset last thing Id want is to have to swallow one of those each day. I am gutted, more than gutted.
As for my CD I am not sure where I am now as I am bleeding but it could just be due to op... hmm
I hoping really hard that this cycle is the one for you too!
will just pop up
If I haven't PMed you, please let me know so I can PM you my mobile number. It's a pain cause I can only PM one person at a time, so I may have skipped over some of you by accident.
