[bailey99]

Hi again everyone,

Spring - WHat did you make for dinner?? You always seem to be having something nice.

Klee - How are you feeling? I know that 3 months was a bit of a milestone for me.

Lynn - You did look skinny! You looked great but hopefully there will be a baby coming soon to ruin all your hard work I love winter too, I love boots and coats and getting rugged up.

Tommysmum - Glad DD liked her outfit, I thought she would. I bet she looks beautiful in it. I am happy for you that you have Tommy home (and not in your undie drawer)

Dream - It would be great if you can make it on sunday!

Mel - How are you doing??

Hi to everyone else too!

Well day 829 of my million day cycle....well ok actually day 29 of a god-knows-how-long-cycle. I had some period like cramping today so not feeling confident...but if AF doesn't come by timorrow, I might be ok as I only really ever get cramps the day before.
Stupid body. Just stop messing around and get preggers will you!!

[tommysmum]

Bailey - wow day 829 - sometimes we wish this on us but not now hey. Well at least you will be able to test very soon and hopefully it will be a BFP !

Dream - i hope you can make it on Sunday - it would be nice to meet you. You put me to shame going for a workout - i used to be sooooo fit and toned - now it looks like i have 10 donuts under my top (well i did eat 2 this morning...they are sooo yummy). I was too lazy to go for a walk today...

Very quiet in here tonight - am going off to watch "Lost" - i am really into all this real life (not) stuff lately !!

[Spring Angel]

Hey Bailey, dinner was yummy. I just cooked some chicken and onion, mixed in pesto and light evaporated milk and had it with pasta with crushed cashews on top. Very nice and heaps left for lunch tomorrow.

Don't feel too put off by the cramps. I had cramping for the first few weeks with this bub. I started before I got the BFP and continued after. I hope the wicked witch stays away for at least the next 9 months. Are you going to test before Sunday?

I can't wait to catch up again. But by the sounds of it after pigging out on fish and chips we may have to go for a walk to burn it off. Oh and if you can't find me just look for the beached whale and that will be me (lol) not that I'm complaining but I am having a major fat day and bad hair day. Going to go shopping on the weekend to get some retail therapy, that will fix me

for a BFP Bailey.

Hey Tommysmum, I must have been posting at the same time.

I am about to watch the RPA update about where the people from the previous show are so there will be waterworks in this house tonight.

Oh and doughnuts, can we get one of them on Sunday also! Yummo

Lv Spring.

[tommysmum]

i can always get some doughnuts (fresh) and we can scoff them before lunch as they are always best warm hey (well the cinnamon ones anyway..they are my favourite) - i sound like a little kid !

Was thinking about the RPA show but yes it will be upsetting - hope all the patients are in better shape now..fingers crossed...

[Spring Angel]

Warm cinnamon doughnuts, hold me back!!!!

I gave up watching the RPA show, just don't think I can tonight. Oh well, I'm off to have a shower and then try to get some zzzzzzz's.

Can't wait to meet you on Sunday.

Hellloooo

Thanks Spring, I think I remember with my 2 pregnancies getting cramps and thinking that it was periods too. I really want to test, but I am trying to wait til next week. I think cos I did so much testing last month when my cycle dragged on for 44 days that I even on the off chance that I got a BFP, I still won;t believe it. SO I am going to hold out...well try anyway. Well, maybe I might do one sunday morning

[tommysmum]

Bailey - remember i had period like cramps since my "3 periods in 5 week saga" until i fell pg and still a couple of weeks into the pg...so bring on that BFP.

I am going to dream doughnuts tonite (and i wonder why i couldnt eat much dinner tonight - i am such a piggy).

[Lynn]

mmmmmmmm doughnuts

[tommysmum]

wonder where you were - thinking you may have been "busy" - any updates ?

Hey i saw a lady today (at WEstfield Eastgardens/Pagewood) that i swore looked exactly like you (just blonder hair) and she was pg. Woulnd't be your sis by chance ??

[Lynn]

Got a night off!!!!

Wow, she does have blond hair but I don't know what she would be doing over there. She works in North Sydney so I don't think it would have been her. How funny though

[bailey99]

Lol Lynn on the Homer quote
Mmmm donuts, is there anything they can't do?

[AustraJoey]

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I'm due for AF today.. and I'm not going to test too soon as I have wasted a fortune on Preg. Tests!
I need to know if I'm pg asap so I can start Progesterone pessaries. I also need a new script for those if I am pg and then need to get them compounded. Any one else use these?
So sick of living life in 2 week increments, but the alternative(to quit) is less palatable.
After years of this, I should be getting better at it and in a way I'm slightly more detached now.
Anyone use AP? I see Margaret Bruce in Potts Point.

Hi Jo, I hope the wicked witch doesn't show up You sound like a test junkie like the rest of us! Welcome to the club!! I know how hard it is not to test so when you do, I wish all the best and hope you get a bfp.

How long have you been TTC? It is a painful journey isn't it?!?!?!

No I am not using Progesterone pessaries. I do have to have hcg injections over the next few weeks while I am in my 2ww.

[bailey99]

Well Hello all,
I am meant to be working, but I just cannot get motivated, so I am just wasting time online instead.

Jo - I hope AF doesn't come. I am waiting for it too but hoping it stays away. With the HPT's I get them cheap from the Fertility Natropath site and they are about $10 for 10 I think.

Well, I am on day 31, but as you all know by my past complaining, it doesn't mean much when my stupid cycles range from 34 to 44 days. I think by FF, guessing by the rising temps, I should be about 7dpo. So, one week to wait before testing I guess......well I can't lie to you lot, I tested this morning and got a BFN which was not a shock considering I am too early by a week I blame the serial testers in here for being a bad influence. I am not feeling positive though anyway, I have had dull cramps this morning and then about half an hour ago, I had a sharp pain from my back all the way to the front in my lower belly that lasted for a couple of seconds. I don;t get those with AF usually, but I suspect she is on her way. Well, O should go back to work, I will come and visit later...bye bye!

[AustraJoey]

Hi Lyn,
I've been ttc for 3.5 years with only 4 m/c during that time to show for it! I've had 6 m/c in total, and have tried just about everything...
Bailey- I'm supposed to be working too but distracted re AF. Hope she stays away for 8-9 months for us both. I have short cycles(26 days) which can be good or bad.
Jo

[Lynn]

Bailey - you are hilarious!

I blame the serial testers in here for being a bad influence

You aren't talking about me by any chance?????????? You have to be positive. I will sic that little porky pig onto you if you don't be positive You were the one telling me to be positive! I am CD31 today as well!

Jo - I am so sorry that this journey is so cruel. I hope so much that you get a bfp and bubba sticks around for the full 40 weeks.

Well I am bored today too. I should be cleaning the house but it is a miserable day so I feel miserable. I went shopping this morning and bought some news jeans and trackies. It is nearly time for Days of our Lives - I know, how sad but now that Young and the Restless has gone to the W channel (which I don't have) on foxtel I have to get my soapie fix some how! DH won't let me upgrade foxtel so we can have W channel - how rude!!!!

[Lynn]

Deb - I have been thinking about you all day. I hope the scan went really well and little Col is in there bouncing around.
