Got my BT results. Definately UTD. HCG levels low at 20 so have to get another BT done on Monday. My GP is not at all concerned about the HCG level she's only sending me for it because I was thinking I should be around 50 or so by now.

Hello everyone, wow alot has happened since i was in here last... really bad week, my dad was killed instantly in a car accident last thursday and he lived about 4 hours from where i live so i had to race up there to help organise his funeral and support my step mum. He was 73. It was just horrible. By the time we got to see him it was a week later and it didnt look like my dad. The funeral was horrible, but what can you expect. I am so so sad for my dad and what happened to him, i cant really concentrate with what is going on with our cycle, but we went ahead anyway because kim had already finished the clomid, but cant really get excited or expect much from this cycle. in short we have 3 follies and we trigger tomorrow night and have the iui on monday...
Firstly a big congrats to Shoegal, Satya and Leyla all the best for a H & H pregnancy!!!
Welcome to Ems, LittleScottishBoy, Dawnee and JuneBug, not nice to be here, but you will find you will have alot of love and support through these girls, that know what you are going through..hopefully you wont be here too long!
Lee - your preg ticker is ticking along nicely! So happy for you hunny!
Kiwigirl - my thoughts are with you, i hope you are and stay well sweetheart!
*las* - glad your results came back to 0 and you can ttc very soon...
Nicole - god these last few days drive you nuts hey, fingers crossed for you and hopefully the witch has stayed away..
Treelo - good luck, i hope you have a very quick tww!
MissBelinda - take care and i hope your op goes well..
LizJessie - i hope the operation went well
Phew big hello to anyone i have missed.
satya - :pray: I'm praying for you! Good luck with the BT on Monday!
TwoMums - Yes, the operation went really well, although he's acting as though he's on his death bed, it's driving me nuts! Friends of ours on another forum are taking bets which will happen first - the wedding or the homicide!
First off Congrats to Satya!!! It must feel so good. :)
Twomums~ I am sooooo sorry for your loss that is so hard. :( You are in my thoughts. Literally I can't tell you how sorry I am .
Nothing going on with me, my period didn't come in July and still isn't here I haven't taken a test again cuz theres no symptoms or anything so just keep me in your prayers that I will get my period soon. I think I might stop trying i just feel so defeated right now. Oh well hope everyone is doing better than me :)
zionsmum - :pray::crossfingers:
There ya go, you're in my prayers and I've got my fingers crossed as well ;)
Twomums - thats so very sad that your Dad left you so suddenly and traumatically. I lost a husband in similar circumstances, so understand the utter shock and despair. A shame your Dad won't be around in the flesh to get the good news of your's and Kim's BFP (shortly of course) - but he'll be watching over your little one - I'm absolutely sure of that.
Be kind to yourself for a long while to come and do whatever you have to do to make yourself feel "better".
Big hugs and THE best of luck with this coming cycle.
Lee xo
TwoMums - i am so very very sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. I truly believe that they are in a better place and that one day we will see them again and it will be like a wonderful reunion (my own Dad passed away last year and it is this thought that keeps me going, otherwise i'd go insane thinking i'd never see him again after this earth place!). Please try to be good to yourself and allow as much time as you need to grieve for your Dad... and even though he is not here physically, i am sure he is with you in spirit and will help you and Kim through your journey.
Fingers crossed for this cycle, Zionsmum!
And LizJessie - just noticed you are recently engaged - congratulations! Wonderful news mate.
Ems - so sorry you are in here (i just recently came here too, last week!). I had a m/c a few years ago at 12 weeks which was a missed m/c as well, but i was advised to have a d & c straight away. I did, and then it took about 3 months for me to get my regular cycle back. This recent m/c was about 6 weeks along and my doc wanted me to do another d & c, but i said no, i wanted to try and let it resolve naturally. I am glad i did, cos it is almost finished now, after about 6 days of bleeding. I have to have an ultrasound on Wed to make sure it all came out ...i am hoping so, or otherwise i'll have to have a d & c anyway!
I hope that you can make the best decision for yourself - my doc had told me there was too much tissue (including the gestational sac) for me to have m/c'd naturally for the 12 week m/c, and i have also heard from another lady at work who m/c'd at 12 weeks - she went natural and it went horribly wrong for her (ended up with pelvic infection cos some still stuck there so she had to end up having d and c anyway). Each situation is different i guess.
Good luck in whatever you decide to do... sorry i can't be of more help. Hope your stay in here is short and sweet! (and for all of us in here too!).
Hi Everyone...im going to do some personals tomorrow, but right now im just proud and happy that i wanted to share with you wonderful ladies.. I told you all that last sunday Cooper scored his first try ever playing rugbly league...well tonight he didnt score one, nor did he score two... he managed to pull a hat trick !!! thats right, 3 tries....!!!! boy what a night !!!
hugs to all
treelo
Woo hoo! Go Cooper! You must be a very proud Mummy, Treelo, and rightly so! Yeah! Go Cooper.
Thankyou very much :):
They say good news, or news in general, comes in threes, let's hope something good happens for me ;)
megan & kim - I am so sorry to hear about your dad's passing. It's just awful when older peole die so tragically. We always expect them to die of natural causes or disease, never like that. Maybe the distractions you've had will help this be a successful cycle. I really hope so.
LizzieJessie - congrats on the engagement.
:)
Even though we were going to keep things quiet the list of people who know about the pg is growing. My DF keeps saying and doing things that give it away. His sister guessed, as did his mother, now last night my mum asked why he was patting my stomach lovingly so of course I had to tell her. Its sooooo early I really didn't want to tell anyone, particularly until I see the HCG levels going up.
Satya - its so lovely to hear your DF is so loving and sensitive toward this child. Its wonderful. I can understand why you want to keep it quite and you may have to explain this to him. hugs to you both.
Littlescottishboy - I hope you scan goes as well as can be expected and that nothing is left.
Twomums - Im so very sorry for the loss of you Dad. Im sending you lots of strength and hugs for all of you. I hope this round of ivf will bring you some much needed joy.
Ems - Im so sorry for your loss. You are very much in the right place, and so very welcome. I hope your time here is very very short.
Zionsmom - Im sending you lots of hugs too. I hope AF comes and you start to feel better soon hun.
Las - Best of luck TTC
Pash - How are you doing hun? Have been thinking of you lots and hope your coping with all that has been thrown at you.
Hugs to everyone
treelo
satya - Thankyou very much :D
How is everyone else?
Afternoon all!
claireable - How are you going? Good to see things are going so well for you!
Satya - Great news, hope your levels have doubled nicely by Monday and looking strong :)
Ems - so sorry for your loss :( I'm actually really surprised you were told to wait, usually for a missed m/c at that stage, most Dr's would have you booked in pretty quick for a D&C - I think I'd be asking for it to be arranged. *hugs*
Megan - I'm so sorry about your Dad, what tragic news :( Hope you are ok?? Wishing you all the best for Monday.
Treelo - Your little man is a star! Good on him!
Nothing much happening here now until AF comes.
Hi to everyone else :)
Satya - Great news - I keep my fingers crossed for Monday's BT.
Treelo - Hope your DH is recovering well from Chickenpox... You must be very proud of your little man - Go Cooper! :)
Twomums - I am very sorry to hear about your dad. I am sending you lots of hugs.
Ems - Welcome, you are very much in the right place here. I am very sorry to hear about your loss. I had a missed miscarriage at 12 weeks and also found out at the 12 weeks ultrasound. My ob got me to come in for a D&C the very next day.
Zionsmum - hope you feel better soon. Sending you lots of hugs :hug:
Kbowman - if you are lurking: which OPKs do you use? I think I might give it another go next cycle. I have previously used the Confirm ones that come with the pregnancy test, but they didn't work for me...
No news for me. Looking at my chart I think I have ovulated, but the pre-ovulation temps are so up and down that I just cannot find a coverline... :wall:So I think I just ride this cycle out and see what happens next.
An old school friend has invited me to come for a girlie weekend to Berlin and I am doing some navel gazing whether to go or not. So soon after the D&C I feel a bit fragile and I don't want to leave my seven year old (although I know that he would be perfectly fine with his dad). Also I don't want to miss a cycle... - Am I crazy? Should I just go and enjoy myself with the girls and forget about everything else??? Somehow I am not too excited at the prospect of boarding a plane without my DH and DS (which is not me - I always have the travel bug normally...) I have to make a decision by Monday.
Hi and hugs to everyone I missed.
Just dropping by for a quick second, thanks to everyone I feel stupid hoping for my AF, does anyone know if I can still ovulate even though my af is all messed up? I am "supposed" to ovulate in a few days but now I don't know anything. Does anyone have any ideas?
