mel - so hope af stays away, it sure sounds promising, let us know what the FS says. i'll try not to stalk you on text today
auntie m - lol on the cranky pants, dp told me last night i need to get rid of them cause he doesn't like the way they sit, nice hey, thats his nice way of saying snap out of it.
jlk - hope your test went well.
lynn - so glad to hear hope is doing well, would love to see some more piccies
update on me, still moody, af arrived y'day 5 days later than usual however cause i was doing opk's i knew this would be the case. am a little befuzzled on the ol' opk's now though. on that note i'll go cause you'll probably kick me out anyway lol
auntie m - its hard to relax isn't it, maybe find something to take your mind off it, knitting or something. easier to say than do i know, last month was our first month of actually ttc you know with opk's and stuff to help pinpoint and I'm already ready to give up, i don't know that i'm actually mentally prepared for the let downs, i've decided this month I am going to start running, to get my mind off it, i know its a bit too physical but i need to get the stress out as well
Oh Mel do let us know how things go with the FS... I have been thinking of you so much ...
I just want to let those in SEQ know that Dr S is coming to Nambour on the 17th of August to speak about immunological reasons for recurrent miscarriage. It is being held at the auditorium at Nambour General Hospital at 5pm.
Thanks Nat for your call - it was lovely to talk to you. I am sorry I had to run to do the school pick up... You are on a winner... I can feel it in my waters!
Jo - that is good news on your test but not so good if it is an ulcer. Are you going to have more tests?
Klee - I'm sorry the witch arrived. I hope she is kind to you and it is the last you see of her for a loooooong time!
Mel - thinking of you (as always )
Auntie M - it is so hard isn't it. I did the same, said I was going to forget about it but I just couldn't help it. I am a test junkie and couldn't live without them I hope it happens for you very very soon :hugs:
howdy everyone.
klee- knitting might be better than obsessing, and i've always wanted to be able to make something with my hands. last time i tried, though, the pot holder i made was unsafe at any speed. lol. i've been bad about meditating since Yeti died, but i think it would help me to calm down a bit. i too picked up some running -- my legs feel like lead every time i go.
Jo- good news on the glucose test. the ulcer doesn't sound good -such a lot of stress and no good way to let it go.
Mel- i always feel guilty doing something just for me--but you are right that it could help not go on this damn hope/despair cycle. i had a friend tell me to just relax and i'd get pregnant, i just felt so much guilt because it seemed like my fault that i couldn't get pregnant because i couldn't relax. she didn't mean it that way at all, but i'm so willing to accept guilt. you don't sound crazy at all to me for trying different ways of help. this is such a challenge, and who really knows what will work?! do what ever feels right for you!
Mel - sorry to hear that AF might be coming but it is good news that you will trial some drugs to get your body moving and grooving, reading for any IVF you have (or better still if you fall beforehand). You sound so relaxed (and saying that you will take it easy) - it may all just fall into place before you know it.
Klee - sorry to hear that AF came too. What a bugger but it wont be for long ok.
Mel honey I am so sorry that you are still in limbo. I really hope that the FS is able to explain the BT results to you. You don't sound crazy at all, and I think you are being amazingly brave you are a stronger woman than I. I think that the plan of trying fertility drugs first before heading down the IVF route sounds like a very sensible thing to do. It might just give you that boost you need. Just hang in there honey, we are all here for you and care so much about you.
AF arrived yesterday along with tonsillitis and I feel like crap I am pretty cool with the whole AF thing, had kind of resigned myself to the fact she was coming eventually. Anyway, dr saw my bt results and said I have extremely low iron and one more period and I will find myself iron deficient which considering it was the first day of my cycle isnt that great. So now I am on iron supplements, folate, elevit, antibiotics and panadol for my fever - I swear I am rattling when I walk.
I did a google search on iron deficiency and saw a couple of things about it being linked with infertility... does anyone know if this is true? I know I am clinging to hope but I am thinking well if it has anything to do with it, maybe the fertility drugs along with iron supplements will be just what we need to get pg
So I have an appointment at 8am on Monday with FS to talk to him about fertility drugs as he said I have to start them CD5 which is Monday.
I hope you are all well, thank you so much for all of your support - you guys are the best
Oh and just quickly Katti wanted me to say hi to everyone for her, she hasnt been able to pop in cause of lack of computer but has been missing you all
So glad you have an appointment Mel. It sounds like he will pop you on some Clomid...
Iron deficiency is linked to infertility - but it's not common and has to be severe...
Looking forward to hearing how Monday goes my love...
I hope that throat eases with the AB's on board...
Lynn - Left you a Stupid message not sure how it all came out! I was thinking of you and Cooper today xxx why is your mood the way it is???
Deb - It was so wonderful to talk to you once again you have given me inspriation....you are very wonderful. You will love Dr S, he is just so great and very caring. Oh I still think Col will just be a good sleeper!
Mel - You and I might just be doing IVF together and have our babies close!!! after my appointment with Dr S on Wed we are thinking we may have to go back down this road with a few added extras yes its tough but what we get at the end makes it all worth it! I see you mood is sick...I hope your feeling better.
Spring - I know your not getting to excited but let me tell you I cant wait!!!! (sorry) I just wish I was going to be here but as soon as I get back im comming to see you and lil Spring!
Bailey & Tommysmum - hows those bellies? I hope your all well. looking forward to catching up with you.
Auntie M - I know that feeling of "Oh we'll just see what happens" yet in our heads it all omg omg no wonder we are so "Normal"!!!! otherwise how are you going?
Klee - You will feel wonderful, I cant belive how much better Im thinking and feeling since really getting back into it. It is also so good for the TTC journey. Im sorry to hear that witch turned up, I hope this is the last!
Hi to all you other wonderful women Ive only sort of caught up on the last posts so Im sorry for the non personals I just need to read a bit more.
I have a sick DS so I havnt been able to get on my finally fix computer problem! Something went wrong or needed updating then once fixed after how many weeks my little boy got sick but good news he is on the mend and Im sure WILL be back at school on Monday!
I had my appointment with Dr S on wed, and we are going to be Trialling something new.......IVF along with all the other meds, Oh im not sure who it was but one of the new girls had a loss due to blood clots, maybe it would be good to ask if clexane inj along with asprin would be more handy, its seems that the two together work alot better. So do we or dont we try OS??????? this is the six milllion dollar question! One good thing if anything happens Dr S has lots of contacts in London!
Keep well and talk soon
Luv Nat xxx

Nat - We are just gonna try these fertility drugs first and then do IVF as a last resort, I would love to start it yesterday but it is just so expensive that we feel we need to exhaust all other options first. We are still going ahead with our initial appointment on Tuesday but it all really depends on things such as whether we have to pre-pay and whether it is covered under the Medicare safety-net and so on. So on Tuesday when we find out all of those things we will be able to make an educated decision about whether to delay IVF or not. I hope your dr is right and the meds combined with IVF is just what you need to get that bubba in your arms. It is a hard one to decide whether to TTC at certain times, I personally have no self control and always come up with a reason to rather than not to LOL. You guys will make the right decision for yourselves and if you feel confident about the care you could receive over there then it makes the decision a little easier.

I hope it happens for you very very soon :hugs:
