TTC after Miscarriage or Loss ~ September 07 #2

[STARRYSKY]

hi!
satya- i hope you are well and coping with all your big changes.

lizjessie- IF i were you I would be going gaga! as treelo said, you are one tough cookie to have not tested yet! How are you going? I hope that you can be the first of us to get a BFP this month, i think its time someone did.

treelo- Oh no! I hope your dh comes to his senses, I am sure he is more worried about you

beaksie Oh my god! you are actually online!! mind you by the time i finish this you prolly wont be!! How are you?

kbowman I dont think you are invisible but I do understand how you feel, i think we all probably experience that to some degree on here, its just a bit impersonal iykwim, I do look forward to reading your posts and everyone elses.

littlescottishboy- wishing you so much luck for a BFP! This will be my first official cycle ttc after my mc.fingers crossed!

zionsmum I second that wholeheartedly!! PLEASE give us BFPs!! really soon....please???

jayney,mammal,missbelinda,penny,kiwigirl- Hope you girls are all doing well.
I havent been around much lately, I have been trying not to think about ttc too much, but then i miss bb and just have to get back on

treelo and StarrySky - I'm patient, only because I've got no money! LOL!
If I manage to scrape some cash together in the next day or so, I'll get one then

[treelo]

Hi Starrysky - yes im sure he is.....and i even know that if and when i get a BFP, he will show no emotion and will not get excited at all, until im about 5 months...then he will start to talk to the baby and plan for his son or daughter. He has done this with all my pregnancy's since my first m/c . dont get me wrong, he is there for me with the morning sickness and stuff, but he just treats it like i am sick. He wont let me lift things and will take good care of me, just wont refer to the baby for some time......men are such a strange species.

LJ - aaahhh i see....makes sense now......im praying the money tree fills up over night for you !!!!!

[satya]

Penny - don't know what to think of your current chart.... it's very weird.... such high temps early in the cycle then they drop and then rise again. Looking at your last cycle I'd say you O'd on CD13. I presume you are using a maybe baby or the like to see the ferning. I found that it didn't work well for me as it would show ferning just before AF as well as mid cycle. I think this is because of high estrogen levels (I have them) and thats what MB detects. Try using the MB late in the cycle and see if it shows ferning - if it does then you can't rely on it for detecting ovulation.

Hi to everyone else. I'm feeling really good today as I disconnected my ex's mobile phone today. It was in my name and I tried to transfer it to him but they knocked his credit check back so I had no option but to disconnect it. I got a few abusive calls at first and then complete silence.....it's been wonderful. I've managed to cancel the joint bank account and the etag that was connected to my credit card so I'm feeling a little better about financial things.

It's CD17 for me today and absolutely no sign of O so I think stress has held it off. Not that it matters of course, but it is interesting to see what your body is capable of when it's under stress.

[mammal]

Littlescottishboy-- how long had you taken the Vitex before your cycle shifted to O at CD14? My charts-- particularly the first half of the cycle-- have looked a little wonky since I started taking it. The last LP was longer, though, which is what I was going for.

[Jayney]

Littlescottishboy- It is nice to know I have company. Already I am trying to decide if my boobs are sore . only time will tell.

Lizjessie-Please tell me how you resist testing. I am very impatient and would test now if I could.

Zionsmom-

[zionsmom]

Thanks everybody soooooo much!!! I should remove my ticker because I am not completely going by that. Because my AF was late last month I want to hold out until the 29th or 30th give or take a couple days just in case. I had little to none CM this month and so I am not sure if thats a good sign ovulation wise BUT then again I had lots in Aug. and we didn't quite make it so I guess I shouldn't look at that as much. Anyways for everyone!



Satya~ Its awesome that you know all the right steps to make sure your taken care of cuz financially its important he can't "accidentally" abuse anything in your name or whatever. I am just so sorry for the stress, you definately deserve to spoil yourself a little bit if given the chance.

I hope the tww just flies by for everybody waiting has made me so annoyed. I wish I could test in 3 days!

Hi lovely ladies,

I've been away in Nooas having a break with the family. Just did a quick read through the posts here and wanted to say:

Satya - big hugs to you, but I know for sure you have done the right thing. You sound good, but I'm sure will have your moments for some time. I firmly believe the best way to "get over" someone is to be with someone else........ so you get yourself out there girl and keep open to finding Mr Right - who hopefully has damm fine "little Mr rights's" too!! I wouldn't give up on your dreams just yet Satya, hold them close and believe they will and CAN happen. More hugs xoxo

Pash - thanks for thinking of me. How on earth are you? You can't help but wonder what the hell is going on when one crappy thing after another happens. Did you get your MRI results yet? Hang in there Pash, things can surely only improve. My little boys Crab Apple tree is gorgeous - it has leaves on it now, and the seedlings (flowers) I planted at it's base are growing quickly. It was the first thing I went to look at after flying back home yesterday, and it got a very loving water from me too

Hello to everyone else, wishing you BFP for your TWWs!!!!!!

As for me, it's nearly 6 weeks since my D&C - finally stopped spotting one week ago, during which time I had heaps of CM. Haven't missed a beat with BDing. No sign of AF. Sore bb's. I think I could be pregnant again, but not really game to test, it's pretty soon after d&c, but I know it is possible. I have to see my OB on Monday, so will get him to check me over then. Unless of course I buy a HPT when I do the shopping later

Hugs to you ALL.

Lee xoxo

Oh Lee, that would be fantastic if you were.

Lots of love and hugs.

PS - hello to LizJessie, Treelo, Penny, Satya, Zionsmom and everyone else, xoxo.

[mumstar]

hi everyone,

Lee - I hope you are pregnant. Send you good preggie vibes!

I had the d & c 6th august. still waiting for the AF to come, this last few days, i have had slight twinges in my stomach, and today I feel like I have a fullness. Geez, my CM is all over the shot, today a creamy blob, yesterday I thought little ewcm, but this seems to change everyday. So, who knows, I am not temping but i wish AF would hurry up and come or (please god!!) give me a BFP (by the way did one yesterday - suprise suprise a BFN!!!!) Oh well.

[ElleJay]

Jayney - I've just not got the money - but I found that I've got $8 in the bank and I'm sure that I'll be able to get a test with that.. The money situation is the only reason I've been able to resist

Shoegal - Hiya! How's pregnancy treating you?? I remember when you were in the TTC and you were so excited when you found out you were!

As for me - I'll be testing a little bit later on.. It's late night shopping tonight and as far as I know, DF isn't going to poker tonight, and I will be testing either before or during - so as soon as I come online afterwards I'll let everyone know

Afternoon All

I haven't been in here for a few weeks....trying to get my head around moving, DD being very sick with Bronchiolitis and DH starting his new job which entails travelling at least 2 weeks a month.

I really will try and do personals soon....

I got AF after an 86 day wait after my d&c, so we are now on CD11 and after doing OPK's for the last couple of days it seems like I should be in my O time nowish and DH is in Perth.... We will still give it a good go on the weekend when he comes back but I would think that we have missed this months eggy.

Oh well, what can you do. I hope that those of you in the TWW get your BFP's this month!

OK, will be back again soon!
Kelly

Hi LizJessie *waves*

Have NT scan and first OB appt tomorrow, have had lots of different emotions during this pregnancy so am anticipating tomorrow, both excited and nervous. Had to go on progesterone to sustain the pregnancy but am off that now.

Hope all is well with you hun.

Lee - fingers crossed that you are pregnant again and that all is perfect this time around. You so deserve a trouble free pregnancy next time.

I'm really annoyed today as I got the invoice in the mail today for the karyotyping test that I got done a couple of weeks before I started to suspect something was up with my ex. $440. I am going to have to pay it on my credit card before I can claim it through medicare and I will then be out of pocket around $100. I didn't want the test in the first place but the gyno said it was the next step in the process and now there's no point even finding out what the results were.... and to do so will cost me another $65 after claiming it so I just wont bother. Such a waste. Still waiting for the invoice for all the other BT's I had done that day. If only I'd waited another couple of weeks.

[Lee]

Satya - thats a true bummer having to pay bills that are no longer relevant. I received a $500+ bill for all the testing I had to get done, weeks after my pregnancy ended and it p--ssed me off to have to pay for it all

Well I did a hpt and it was negative. Not too worried, as I really don't know where I am in my cycle till AF shows up properly, guess I just have to do what we are all so good at - WAIT blah blah blah I say!

LJ - am stalking to see how your test went, got it all crossed for you!

Don't know if anyone caught Catalyst just now on ABC - but an interesting piece on male infertility - you could probably check out their webpage. New antioxidant medication have doubled the chance of pregnancy by men who have experienced infertility issues. No side effects, it's basically natural. 50% of coulples who did the trial fell pregnant quickly (and they had major trouble falling naturally before). All good news.

See you all later.

[treelo]

Satya - sorry things are so crappy for you right now hun.

hugs
treelo

[treelo]

gosh its been very quite in here today??? not a single post !!! whats going on??
LJ - did you test?

hugs
treelo

[ElleJay]

Treelo - Haven't tested yet - I dunno why I'm putting it off! I found probably enough money for a test, I just need to go down to the shops to buy it, which I can't be bothered doing just yet.. I'm just soooo tired
I'm still very very crampy on one side, here's hoping that's a good sign!!
