Hey sweetie, big hugs hun . I know the frasturation of charting every month, timing the 'deed' and then after all the efforts, AF comes. BUT, you can't stop trying hun, you know it's gonna happen one day (hopefully very very soon) so please don't give up hope.
Even though I new DF count was so low, our FS said it would be extremely hard to get pg naturally. BUT, I still did the charts, the temps and timed everything perfectly in hope of a 'miracle'. I didn't give up hope even though I had a lot more obstacles than you!! (Hmm, maybe I was in denial & prayed to prove him wrong??)
Lan, I'm always hoping, wishing & praying very hard for you to get your BFP soon . You deserve it sooooooo much. Sending you very very sticky vibes for next time and loads of babydust your way
PS This might be a very silly question, but when the temp goes down, does it definitely mean no pg??????
morning girls
firstly diana had no idea i was utd last time, i even did a poas the night before and didn't leave it long enough to register because i was so sure i wasn't pregnant, imagine my shock when i did one the next morning so i could ring the fs and give them the result. i'm the same this time have got no idea every now and then i feel a bit blah and think maybe but i know that it is a combination of all the drugs. we just have to be patient i guess.
Teagz you are anything but a horrible person don't feel bad.
noni i really hope that you get some answers, and just take it one step at a time with going back to the hospital, we all can understand exactly how you feel and will be holding your hand as you go through this.
for the rest of you girls that are just about to o hope you all have fun.
and to all the pregnant mummies gives those belly a rub for all us ttc.
off to play guitar hero with dh one of my new addictions so much fun.
Hi Lan, sorry that your temp is going down it can be quite depressing, I know, but as Beata said you just have to keep trying and it WILL happen for you. I am by NO means a temp expert, but I am a bit surprised that FF put O at CD17 when you just had a small temp increase and the next day it increased more significantly? What do you think? I do hope you get a BFP soon
Dee & Diana, continuing to pray for you both .
Beata, I hope you are feeling well. Please don't dread Monday, but look at it as a sign that you are getting better and ready to ttc again very soon.
AFM, woke up feeling awful this morning. I haven't been sick in so long I can't even remember. Am trying to fight it naturally, as in no drugs. Does anyone know if having the flu can deminish the chance of conceiving due to low immunity etc?
Megan, sorry you're feeling under the weather hun. I so hope and pray that you get a nice sticky egg this cycle, praying very hard for a BFP for you hun!!!!
I didn't think having the flu would diminish your chances of conceiving, so please stay positive and I have everything crossed for you!
Dee and Diana, always praying for you lovelies, not long to go before you both test!!! I pray for a BFP for you both
Jo76, what cycle day are you now? Will you be testing soon? Bring on a sticky one and lots of babydust to you too hun, we want a BFP!!!!
Lan, big hugs hun, still hoping for a good outcome for you this cycle, never lose sight of your dream sweetheart
Nae, what is news with you hun? Also sending some very sticky vibes your way and lots and lots of baby dust
Teagz, only a few more sleeps for you until your big 21st!!!! Yeepee!!!! How is everything with you lovely??
Laney, praying hard everything is well at your end hun, and your little man is doing well
Katie, how have you been hun? What is little Anna up to these days?
Noni, I hope you're having a good weekend and I'm thinking of you hun
AFM, I'm ready to face the music on monday.....Megan, I am seriously thinking of leaving my work as it's been a constant struggle to stay there. I absolutely detest my MD, and he makes life hard for me. Before he became our MD, he was my boss and he was having an affair with a sales rep who I used to report to. This horrible woman used to dump most of her work on me so she didn't have to come in every day, and when she did, she was there for 3 or 4 hours tops (her hours were supposed to be the same as for everybody else). One day I complained to my new boss, and a few months later she was asked to leave (not because of me, she did some bad things at work and the people in the US where our head office is found out) and she left. Ever since then, her boyfriend (my MD) blamed me and has made life hell for me. That was almost two years ago.
When I found out I was preganant, I was over the moon as I planned 12 months of maternity leave (3 paid) and I was going to be outa there. I was then going to look for another job when I was ready to go back to work. Well, I didn't get to go on maternity leave, and it was devastating to go back there this year. Oh well, I'm hoping I get pg soon and I will leave that place for good!!!
Rozzie, Sue, Jo, Tildy, Helen, Theresa & Paula, I'm sending you all big hugs and belly rubs for your bubs, I hope every one is well and taking it easy .
Once again, for all our TTC lovelies, I'm sending bucket loads of babydust and the stickiest of sticky vibes to you girls. We are so overdue for some BFPs in here!!!!! I am now doing a big BFP dance for all of us girls (NOT a good look, but it might work!!! LOL)
Well over and out for me for now, hope everyone is having a great weekend and big hugs to all.
Oh Lan, I don't know much about temping but are you sure there isn't a chance? Does that downward spiral really mean that AF is on her way? February is our month!
Beata, your MD sounds like such a tosser, no wonder you're feeling so stressed about going back to work. You need to keep stress levels at a minimum and be in tip top mental condition for your upcoming transfer sweets so is there a possibility you can ask for a transfer to another department or speak to your HR department about how you feel? Otherwise, I suggest you start looking for something asap and then you can still be entitled to maternity leave by the time bubs is ready to arrive! It's so important you be happy and peaceful so really consider your options hun.
Teagz, Jo (AL'sM) once said to me when I was ranting in jealousy about my SIL pregnancy, that if I'm a terrible person, then she is too. We have all been there sweets and the reaction has pretty much been the same across our thread when people close to us announce a pg. It's very hard to deal with when we so long for our own, especially after suffering the worst imaginable pain when we lost our babies. You will get there, and very soon too. Beata also said something I will never forget, and that is, when you get pg, there are probably others that will be green with envy about you. Chin up sweets, you're not a bad person, just human. It will all be ok, I promise.
Dee, it's so stressful isn't it. I analyse every single twitch and pain but can't make anything out. I just have bbs that feel like they are going to explode and some slight cramping. You're right though, we are just going to have to be patient as there is no way of feeling proper symptoms with the amount of drugs in our system *sigh*
Hi Megan, oh how I am this is your month dear friend.
Teagz and Megan, to answer your question, I don't do the I might be pg thing so I'll stop doing this or eating this.... I know it's silly but I just feel like I'm going to jinx myself or something. I rarely drink so I don't have to worry about that so I pretty much continue on as normal. I don't think it's a bad idea to act like your pg in the 2WW though, hey anything that keeps you healthy and potentially help baby if there is one in there is a great thing.
Noni, going back to the hospital is very hard. Sending you strength to get through it hun. I hope you get the answers you need from your doctor so you can TTC again and that the chance of it happening again is zero
Have a good night girls and a big hug and hello to everyone.
Beata, that situation sounds awful! I would definetly consider looking for another job now, like Diana said you may sneak in 12-months and be entitled to maternity leave. I know it would be tricky getting a new job and then falling pg, but that is life and it happens all the time. You shouldn't have to put up with your MD because he is seeing someone who did the wrong thing by your company and you. People like that make me so jolly mad
Jeez Beata your work sounds worse than mine. We are having serious drama's there atm with staff not getting on and the only thing that is keeping me there is the paid mat. leave we're offered. Thankfully there is one lovely lady that I work with so we try to stick together. I feel for you, it's horrible when you hate your job. I'll be thinking of you on monday
Berry, i don't have ff but if I miss out this cycle I think i might start one up! I only started taking my temp on CD14 of this cycle. CD14 it was sky high(37.2) then on CD 17 dropped (36.5) and it now rising again today on CD20 (36.9) I was just curious how it all works! Now I know that though judging by that spike on cd14 I'm almost positive I o'd on CD12/13. I should have started temping earlier, it's all quite interesting to see how our bodies work.
ETA, oh hang on I think i misunderstood your post So once your temp spikes does it stay up there till AF? Sorry for the stupid questions!
