Hey everyone. Just checking in to let you know I am still about and doing as well as can be expected. DH, DD and I are taking a short break - some time off in the Blue Mountains, shortly. Hoping for some snow and some cuddling up in front of a fireplace.
Ran into my FS today, who had heard what had happened via the grapevine. Unlike my OB, who is suggesting I try IVF with PGD after I do the Miscarriage Investigation Program , my FS has suggested I try Clomid as it may improve egg quality and improve the uterine lining. What do you guys think?
I am also meeting with the much reverred Dr Sacks next Wednesday for a second opinion. DH and I are very excited about this as he has been highly recommended by some on BB.
Sorry no persies. I am so far behind on them now.
BTW - I am changing from powerful purple to a serene sky blue for my posts. I am too superstitious for my own good, eh?

this is a test to see if I can actually post - sorry guys - had trouble getting my last post up
-
I can't believe I can finally get onto this blessed site! I've missed you BB!!
ladies - hey to you all - big big hugs!
jen - I can't believe it - I'm so sorry.
krystie - not many kicks at all - just mild movement feelings. Placenta is forward so it's bound to cushion any of the kicks! I'm sorry you have been in such pain due to AF - that old bat makes us feel bad enough without her sinking her heels in!! Take care sweet!
Ok - that's all for now - just glad I can now get to post and I'll catch up with you all later.
PS - bday buddy - hope ur ok hun
-
Thanks Mollycat,
It's nice to be able to chat to people who know what you've been through!!
Still trying to work out how this whole site works....will get there
xxxx:p
-
having trouble posting!!!
Thanks Mollycat - look forward to chatting to all of the girls on here!!the more support the better!!
-
WTH - I personally believe that Clomid has given my hormones the kick into gear they needed to support this pregnancy. I secretly hoped that I wouldn't fall pg again until I was due to start the Clomid - although we tried our hardest each cycle anyway I just felt that the Clomid was going to bring good into our lives. So far so good.
Sending you a million :hug::hug::hug:
Good luck with all of your investigations. Am always thinking of you, if you feel up to it please keep us updated on your progress. I am still convinced that you will have that healthy bub in your arms soon.
P.S I like your new serene sky blue!!!
-
Rachel - I could see the line. I was having the same prob as you. Go see a FS and perhaps get a script for some progesterone pesseries. That's what I'll be trying this month. :hug:
Jen - Sorry to hear the cow showed up. Slice her up and put her on a burger! Glad you're holding on to my number. I will expect a text in around 28 days!! BDing going to plan (so long as tonight is a go-er)!!
Toccara :hug: Sorry you're feeling down hun. Thinking of you.
KL - Timing sounds perfect!! That little eggy hangs around for up to 24 hrs!
Larz - Welcome! Sorry to hear your story. I hope you have a BFP in no time. :hug: Do you use FF to temp? Can you post the address so I can check out your temp?
WTH - Thinking of you hun. :hug:
AFM - I'll be off the computer from now till Friday night as I am off on school camp (which means we MUST BD tonight). I'm sure I'll take forever to catch up when I get back. 3 days without computer? Ahhhhhhhh!!
Take care every one. :hug:
:pink-babydust::bluedust::stickyvibesgirl:
-
Toccara - A little getaway sounds like a fabulous idea! Don't forget to take the scented candles and bubble bath with you ;)
AJC - oooh, I hope you get to see your bubba on Monday!!! I bet that each beat of it's little heart will make you feel a little more secure and at ease :hug:
Larz - Hi sweetheart. I'm so very sorry that not only did you lose your angel, but a tube as well :( But I am very glad that you have found us. I promise that the girls in here are amazing and we will all help you through the rest of your TTC journey!
How far into the TWW are you? I think you are amazingly brave to have started trying again so quickly (I did too after I lost my angel) and I hope that this is your lucky month :)
WTH - Good on you for organising a second opinion. I think it's always worth getting a second opinion for something that so important. Even if they recommend the exact same thing at least you can go forward with total confidence. And if his recommendations are different, then at least you know you have some options.
All the best sweetness! :hug:
PS. I think the blue is pretty, and goes perfectly with your planned holiday to the Blue mountains ;)
Joey - Enjoy your camp! Sounds like fun!
Jen - Ummmm, wake up! I finished the book!!! :p
Megsmum - How did you appointment go today honey? I hope it went well for you :)

Hi ladies
Jen- Sorry Af showed her ugly face :(
Rachel- Wondering how you're doing hope ok:hug:
Toccara- Hope you're feeling bit better
KL and Pbstar- Hope your 2ww flies by and you both get BFP soon
Larz- So sorry to hear of your loss, glad you found this place, ladies on here really supportive. Take care :hug: :hug:
Joey- Hope you enjoy time at camp
WTH - hope time away at blue mountains goes well :hug:
AFM- Seems like forever trying to get on to BB. This 2ww seems s0000 long already! Finally got some sleep last night though. Going to see Dark Knight this week anyone seen it yet?
-
Chappas - I saw The Dark Knight yesterday at IMAX. The movie was fantastic and the scenes that were filmed for IMAX were amazing. I actually felt my stomach lurch at one point because I felt like I was falling!
The whole movie is great, but Heath Ledger took his character to the whole next level! He WAS the joker! He acted the role perfectly, even down to the finest detail like the freaky little mouth thing he does. You'll love it, lol. I must say that although Christian Bale is an awesome Batman, Heath Ledger really stole the show.
Enough of my ranting... Have a great time watching it!!! :D
-
Jen: :hug: Damn AF! Sorry hon, hope you're feeling ok.
WTH: Enjoy your holiday! Hope it is super relaxing! :hug:
Joey: Enjoy camp!!!! YAY!
AFM: Well, FF say Io'd on cd 15, but FC says I o'd on cd 19. I have better chances of concieving by FC terms, so I'm still in the tww, but with a 6 day difference between the dates. Hmph! Off to dinner with dh now. SHould be lovely (we never get to go out for dinner what with our lack of any sort of decent money, so looking forward to it!
:hug: for all of you girls! And lots of :pink-babydust::bluedust::stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesbo y:
-
Ok why am I up at 5am !!!
The dark knight was great movie I saw it last week ...
-
Tutmae - Hate to tell you, but I'm thinking that CD19 is looking more like your ovulation day to me. But then again, I'm not expert so I'm just guessing. Have a lovely dinner!
Toccara - 5AM!!! What is wrong with you girl?! :ROFL: I like to pretend that anything before 7am doesn't actually exist ;)
-
Hi All,
Firstly damned computer :computer: couldn't get on last night or this morning. I have missed you guys
Rachel and Jen - so sorry AF arrived..... what's happening with July.... very few BFP's this means the odds are much greater for us all in Aug - bring on Aug I say
Toccara - sorry to hear you are feeling down... there is no rhyme nor reason when sadness hit hey... Tonight the had the friends episode where Rachel had her baby.... I cried and cried and cried... over Friends !!!! Hope you are feeling better now :hug:
Issy - I have also put you appt in my calendar ... you now have what - 15 odd women to remind you
KL - the Ov pain sounded bad but I am sure this is the egg of ALL eggs....the mother of all eggs that is ready and waiting for fertilisation :crossfingers:
Larz - welcome sweety - sorry you have to join us for this reason. How long have you been taking your temps??? using FF would assist with monitoring everything. just see the attachment below of my chart and you can start your own - first mth free.
WTH - clomid can't help... I imagine it would also be cheaper than going to IVF. I personally dont know too much about it though - best of luck
PLC - good to hear from you.... so excited your starting to feel somehting in there :hooray:
Joey - have an awesome holiday... will post after my gyno appt but wont get back on line to next Wed
Megsmum - 19DPO - what's happening????
Tutamae - hope you have a great dinner... I actually agree with KL that you may have Ov on day 19 - again no expert - just keep doin the do !!
AFM - plodding along... I am now 9DPO however I also was late by 6 days. I have started to get really watery CM so I was thinking - could I be fertile/Ov early... The temps are still low - just weird for me that's all. Dont know whether I should be using the OPK tests early (FYI - have been Ov day 19) :doh:

hello ladies.. :grouphug:
wth: :hug:
jen: we're still cycle buddies! i've got a longer cycle, so you'll catch up in no time!
plc, tina, ajc, ruthie, betty, sarajane, jenushka & all the other pg ladies: :stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesgirl:
krystie, jen, wth, lizjessie, pbstar, tutmae, smilanatu, tocarra, chappas, jodsan, acria, joey, issy, molly, & ttc ladies: :goodluck2::bluedust::pink-babydust:
newbies: WELCOME!
sorry everyone, this is going to be my last post for a while...
dh said to me yesterday that i think about it too much & that he's going to get my thermometers & temp record book & chuck them all away (how did i fall pg the first time - without all these things?) ... he didnt end up throwing them away, but i think he's right.
all the temp checking every morning & stressing out about ttc doesnt help me to relax & fall pg - i've been crying almost every night now & close to tears every day when i think of something sad - which is the only thing i feel now..
this morning i didnt check my temp & i feel good about it - not worried that my chart is ruined because of a missed temp. & glad that i can now sleep more without worrying about temping!
i'll be relying on my instincts & symptoms to bd, & now that i know that my fertile period is from cd 16 to 22.
i'll still be lurking around... watching everyone & waiting to congrat you all on your bfps!
so goodnight ladies, stay happy & positive - i'll be thinking of you all now & then! (cant think of you all the time or else thats too much thinking!)
:grouphug:

I tried to post last night and I'd written quite a lot too... shame it didn't work.
Sorry to keep you all wondering how I am... well the answer in short isn't very positive sorry.
I am fine in myself generally, although very spotty and hormonal which is irratating the bjeez out of me. I took myself riding yesterday to try and take my mind off of things, I cantered up and down the beach and blew away some cobwebs. I think its the only thing which actually takes my mind off things at this time.
Last night I had this horrid dream though, I had a baby and it was TINY... I mean tiny and I knew it wouldn't survive, I woke up feeling quite depressed and ill. I am about to go and get a bath, even though its mid afternoon and try to 'boost myself up a bit'.
I am convinced I have had yet another chem preg and quite frankly I'm ready to throw the towel in.

must change my ticker- bare with me though as I'm feeling bleh!
