    Berry, Just wanted to agree with Beata, When I got my BFP I felt like AF was on her way too. I almost fell in the toilet when I saw the two lines come up.

    Still stalking you all. Hope you all enjoy some hot, steamy action if your nearing O time & Praying for some BFP's at the end of you TWW and of cause Beata I'm hoping your little frostie is a sticky one for next month

    Hi ladies

    I have to start off by say a big thanks to everyone for your wonderful words of support and encouragement. I feel like I have my own personal cheer squad helping me get back fit and healthy. It means a lot to me, thank you

    Bec - I'm in Canberra now. Glad to hear that you had such a lovely time away. You sound very relaxed and calm. A relaxed Bec and DH and O just around the corner - wow! Sounds like great baby making stuff! Hope you get your BFP soon!

    Megan - hope you have a great holiday this week, and here's hoping that you have some good news to tell us when you get back And your anniversary dinner and opera sounds very sophisticated! Glad you had such a great time.

    Beata - counting down the days now, hun. How exciting!

    Diana -hope you're doing better and out of hospital by now.

    Dee - hope you're getting through this hard time. Thinking of you.

    Hi Teagz, thanks for popping in to see where we're at.

    Aries - I bled for about 5 weeks after losing Ryan, which resulted in me being anaemic. I had to have a D&C at week 4 because of some RPOC (I hate that term!) which was causing bleeding and cramping. I got my period at about week 6. I'm CD58 today on cycle #2, so things aren't really settled for me at all. Hoping that TCM and AP will sort things out soon. My ob told me that my AF should arrive at 6 to 8 weeks after the D&C, but it was much sooner than that for me. It does seem to be different for everybody.

    AFM, have been very busy. Quick visit from SIL who had to attend a funeral at short notice this morning so she arrived late last night. It was good to see her and we stayed up very late talking about Ryan and IVF, etc. She has a friend who did 6 IVF cycles with really poor results. Only managed one egg collected each time. They then tried AP and a healthy eating plan similar to what we are on - no alcohol or caffiene, lots of wholegrain foods, minimal red meat and she is now 26 weeks pg! So that gives me a lot of hope.

    Also, Friday and Saturday I had some EWCM. Not stacks but certainly very stretchy which I don't usually have, usually only the watery kind (sorry if TMI) so we took advantage . I am hoping that maybe I have O'd really, really, really late. But I am also being realistic that with everything so mucked up that we probably don't have much hope of a BFP, but I guess it's a bit like winning lotto, you gotta be in it to win

    Anyway, we're off to WA tomorrow night for 6 days. I'm really looking forward to the break. But I had better get to bed because I'm exhausted and have AP and chiro tomorrow before going to the airport!

    Take care lovely ladies. I will try to pop in to check on everyone while I'm away.

    Cheryl, just wanted to say have a great time away. And EWCM has to be a good sign of some sort of hormone action surely! Even if it's not ovulation, it may be a sign of your cycles returning.

    AFM, I ovulated early. Temperature rise this morning. So really not much BD after all. I'm just telling myself once is all you need! If it doesn't happen this cycle I think I'll buy one of those Maybe Baby things.

    xx Bec.

    Hi Bec,

    Hopefully you got a sticky one this cycle! GL hun. On the topic of ovulation kits, I've tried Maybe Baby and you suppose to put a bit of saliva on the lens and then this light shines on it and when you see a distinct fern pattern, you're most fertile. Except, I saw this fern pattern almost every day, so I never knew when I ovulated. I have heard though that it did work for another girl I know. Maybe it's just me....

    I used the clear blue ovulation thingie last month and it was fantastic, but expensive. You get 7 sticks to test, and when you're about to 'O', you get a happy face so there is no guessing if you've got that second line or not (just like on a HPT). I paid $50 for it, but shop around as they are usually $70.

    The other ovulation kits are around $15-25, and you read them like a HPT. When you see the second line (I think it must be comparable or darker than the test line???) you are about to 'O'.

    Good luck hun, I hope you get your BFP and you won't need these!

    Hello,

    I know I'm on holiday but wanted to quickly drop in to say I got a huge surprise this morning when I got a BFP Didn't expect it in the least as I really thought AF was on her way, but lo and behold there was that beautiful second line. Feeling very excited and also nervous as I go through those fragile first few weeks.

    I really pray that others join me soon Thank you to all of your for your well wishes, it certainly means a lot and you are the first to know our happy news

    Will catch-up on you all soon. Take care.
