Welcome back Han!! Are you going to start temping or just gong to go with the opk's for now???

I am EXHAUSTED... LOL!!! My youngest is almost 10 so it's been a LONG time since i've been preg. I was quite young with my first two so had mounds of energy... this one... not so much. I can't imagine what the women who conceive in their 40's go through!?!? I've been blessed and ave not experienced any morning sickness all thought I'm still quite early but I don't remember having that with my first two either... I gained a massive amount of weight initially as I was always hungry and craving the crappiest foods available but I've managed to tamp that back down... Thank the Lord!!! Can't imagine how large I would be now if I hadn't!!!

How is everyone doing in their cycles??? Anyone testing soon???
 
Thanks girls :-)) Robinson and Jadey I can't believe how far on you guys are!! Great to hear things are going well.

Ciara, I'm so happy you got your bfp! Great stuff. I am temping too. Bit puzzled by a huge temp jump this morning but then night before we had no heating as our boiler broke so I think that's why it's was so low and then last night I had a couple of glasses of wine so could be that or maybe just a freak temp. I'm pretty sure I haven't O'd as no EWCM - but ya never know? I forgot to do my OPKs so will start tomorrow - CD12 I think.

Did we ever hear back from BB?

ND hello my dear! How's the trying to concieve going?

Glad you girls are good. Xxx
 
Its going. I am not sure whats going on this month. It might be another anovulatory one for me. My temp took a dip this morning like O is about to happen but my other signs are conflicting. -opks and my cm keeps changing on me. I'll check and have a small about of ewcm but then I will check its creamy. I just got to wait and see and get in a bunch of bding just in case.
 
Hi Tizy good to hear from you
Glad you've got your cycle back - fx'd you get a rainbow baby nice and quick :thumbup:
We've had a hard time recently. In the last month we've had the miscarriage, then I ended up in hospital for a few days the week after with stomach problem then last week on the first anniversary of the death of DH's best friend DH's husband had a massive stroke and passed away.
Feel like life's thrown pretty much all it can at us and hoping we get a break soon! I'm back at work now so just trying to get back to normal.
I think I may have ovulated about a week ago (pain / EWCM) so plan on doing a test next Saturday just to see. I got a negative HPT within 5 days of the mc so any positive result would be a new pregnancy.
Fx'd for both of us and NDTaber too.
And glad all the pregnancies are going ok :flower:
 
Hello.

Baby1 sounds like you've had an awful time of it, what a tragic few months. It really knocks you doesn't it, at the time you think, oh i'm coping quite well but then later on reflection you realise how hard its been. Hoping for a lovely rainbow baby for you too hunni.

Opk's - right so I'm obviously about to O, the first positive was yesterday lunchtime but am I right that last night and today's are still positive? Before i had MC I never got lines as dark as these ones and they also didn't last as long.

BUT I'm a bit miffed because Mark 'wasn't in the mood' last night, he's been run down and has a man-cold, and I'm at work tonight, won't get in till midnight ish and he's up early! I didn't tell him that I had a positive OPK cos I didn't want to put the pressure on but it sort of backfired on me as when I did tell him he was like, 'well you should've told me and then I could have made more effort'. He's says we'll get to it on Friday but I think that might be too late as FF says you usually O 12-48hrs from first positive. So looks like I'm gonna miss it this month, bam goes my dream of another baby before Christmas :-(

Sigh ..... How is everyone else? X
 
Thought i would bump this thread up to see how everyone is doing :-)

Anymore bfps?!

All going well here and baby should be here in 12 weeks as i should be getting a section in 1st week of june!
 
12 weeks Jadey! How exciting! :happydance:

14 weeks till I'm full term :shock: where has the time gone?! I had a very lovely viability day and finally feeling less worried about every tiny twinge :) now panic buying for the baby and working really hard to finish as much of my degree as I can in the next three months. I can't wait to meet her! She is very responsive and likes to kick wherever I press my tummy :cloud9: she also loves her daddy's voice and turns into a rolling/kicking machine whenever he talks to her!

How is everyone? Love and babydust to you all xxx
 
Wow jadey 12 weeks! That's so exciting!

Happy late v day Lizzie glad everything is going well.

Tomorrow is my v day and all is going well. Baby girl is a little kick boxer/acrobat. Anytime I get worried I just drink a little cold water and she is off and running :haha:
My dd's 2nd birthday is coming up end of this month!! I can't believe she is almost two already. And we are creeping closer and closer to third tri :happydance:

How are our ttc ladies doing??
 
Time is flying crazy fast! 3rd tri is a few days away for me but we are all expecting bub at the end of may rather than mid June
 
Hey ladies,

Wow I've been away from this thread for ages! Glad to see so many new bumps, congrats girls. Can't believe I'm almost at the end now, feels like just yesterday I was posting here everyday symptom spotting. I realize now how incredible it was that we got pregnant the 1st month we tried, especially as I'd only just come off the pill. I'm forever grateful for that.
Our little girl is due end of May and we're having our baby shower next month. I'm so excited! I can't wait to meet her. I'm horrible with posting pics on forums otherwise I'd put up the pictures from our 4D scan. They captured baby girl perfectly!
Drinking raspberry leaf tea, exercising and practising natal hypnotherapy everyday. Hopefully these methods will help make birth a happy experience. :)
Baby dust to everyone TTC or WTT.
 
Whoo, real life got busy. I've got caught up on the happenings but there's too many to reply to individually now - eep.

I'm glad to see those recovering from losses are hanging in there. :hugs: And I'm glad to see that those expecting are doing well (you lucky ladies! - I wish you continued good luck). And those still TTC: FX'd, baby dust, and prayers to you. I hope the rest of us get our BFP's/sticky beans soon! :dust: (Haven't heard from BB in a while - hope you are doing okay!)

baby1wanted, you and your DH have had such a hard time lately! :( Hope things are turning around and some good luck comes your way real soon! :hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs:

Here's whats up with me:

Acupuncture has been working great! I was skeptical that it would really help the pain, but it has! It's almost eliminated all O pain and period pain entirely! And other symptoms have been less or gone, like mood swings hardly ever happen now, yay. So hopefully that means it's helping the endo and my chances of PG in general, too. I'm happy it's helped with the pain and symptoms, at least, though, whatever else. And it's surprisingly relaxing (and can be like meditating if you clear your mind), and the relaxation sticks with a person.

I've been going every week since I last posted, and when I missed a week, I really noticed it, so I highly rec acupuncture for those who are having bad cycle symptoms and having stress. It's really helped me.

Oh, and how could I forget, it's helped me O earlier, as well. This month I actually O'd on cd14, the textbook day! :mrgreen:

Tizy, I'm testing in a couple days on 3/20/13, if AF doesn't get me first.

I've also been keeping myself busy with projects and hobbies, so that's helped. Now that it's getting close to testing time, I'm feeling a bit of suspense, but I'm trying not to focus on it. I have no idea what's going happen, this month (or any other). I give up trying to predict, :laugh2:. And I'm actually feeling okay about it. All the positive self talk, advice from The Impatient Woman's Guide to Getting Pregnant, and acupuncture have gotten me to a more Zen place. Not that I wouldn't still like more control and more predictability, but oh well.

In other news, I had a computer melt down. A lighting strike caused my backup battery/surge protector to sacrifice itself so that my computer wouldn't get fried (the battery was all bowed out when they took it out of the protector!) and although my comp didn't get fried, windows had an improper shutdown and got corrupted and so I had to take it in, have my data backed up, and have them nuke and repave the hard drive with a new windows installation. I'm still working on restoring all my programs and peripherals, but it's mostly restored.

TTCer's remaining (Tizy, baby1, babyrogers, NDTaber, anyone else?) how are you doing?
 
So lovely to hear about all the pregnancies going well.

I'm finding things a bit hard after my MC, one minute I think I'm coping fine and the next I'm sad.

Well we obviously missed catching the egg last month as I've just finished my period...it was a horrendous heavy one which is strange as I never have periods like that. Anyway, I've been lazy and not temped whilst AF was here but now it's gone I've started temping. I O'd CD18 last month but I don't want to miss it so I'm keeping a close eye on CM and will start OPKs at first sign of things.

When I got pregnant in October I was dreaming about Christmas 2013 and having my three children to enjoy it with, well this is the last chance I have to still realise that dream as I'll be due around 20th December if I get pregnant this cycle. Fingers crossed it all happens this month.

So SmallTownGal I'm still here albeit I feel a bit of a shell compared to when this ttc journey started.

Big loves xxx
 
SmallTownGal - wonderful to hear from you! You sound in much better spirits, so glad to hear :thumbup:
The acupuncture sounds great - I keep meaning to try it myself so let me know how you get on with it, it's great that you're having normal cycles. Hope it leads to a BFP for you very soon! :hugs:

DH and I are doing ok... not sure if I mentioned on this thread but DH's little sister is now pregnant on her second cycle of trying. We're happy for her of course but it's hard for us to take at the same time. That's now 3 of DH's 4 sisters all pregnant with more and more asking us when we're going to have one!
Got my first AF after the miscarriage at the end of Feb and it hid me really hard - I think I had coped with the mc by desperately hoping I'd get pregnant before getting a period. So when AF arrived it was like undeniable evidence that it was all over. Still very tearful about it all but getting there slowly. I think I ovulated yesterday so in the 2WW and getting all hopeful again so we'll see...

Tizy - I can completely sympathize - I'm fine one minute then the slightest thing will have me in tears. This cycle is also my last chance for a 2013 baby, if successful I'd be due on 6th Dec. Keeping everything crossed for both of us to get December rainbows :hugs::hugs:
 
Glad to see you, Tizy and baby1, are still here with me (on the board that is - wish all our TTC journey's were going easier, and I so wish you both weren't having to go through loss!). :hugs:

Hugs for the grieving process, you both are going through. :hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs:

I know what you mean about wanting that 2013 baby. I'm in the same boat with you ladies on that one, and this is also my last chance to get PG before my gyno appt, after which it'll be time to go in to the RE for testing.

It's too much to hope for, but FX'd we all get PG this cycle! :haha: FX'd at least one of us does!

Ugh, sorry to hear you had a horrendously heavy AF. That's never fun. :hugs:

Sorry to hear it's all got you feeling shelled :hugs::hugs::hugs: I think I'd feel the same way.

Big loves, to you too! :hugs2:

Thanks for the well wishes! :kiss: The only downside to the normal shorter cycles is that now I'll have readjust my gyno appt so it's not during AF, which it would be if I don't adjust it now :wacko:

Ah, that is rough with almost all your DH's sisters being PG (and the latest getting it on cycle 2 - why can't we have that luck, huh? :fool:) :hugs::hugs::hugs: Have you told them you're trying? I just tell anyone we're working on it, and certain family members get the whole scoop (but only certain ones, :lol:). Maybe that would get them to stop asking...or maybe they'd come up with new invasive questions and unwanted tips :P Tricky

I totally sympathize with that first AF hitting you hard. I'm quite sure I'd feel the same. :hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs: Hopefully you and Tizy get your rainbow babies real soon. :dust: and prayers

As for me: Arg, I started spotting first thing this morning with a temp drop. I predict AF tomorrow or soon. Boo! Hiss! I cried a little today about it, but just short cry, no big sobs, and then back to business as usual. I usually still feel a bit bummy during AF, but AF is a bummer to start with (a bit draining a best) so...yeah. And last time I felt okay again once it was done. I've got the message that it's just not time yet (this cycle), but I still want to know when 'yet' is.

I think DH will be rooting harder for this next cycle since after that it's off to testing, and he hates doctors. He's got white coat syndrome. And nobody wants to go to the RE. He promised if I made the appointment, he'd go, but he'll dread it. I told him it will be like a homicide investigator eliminating suspects - even if they don't think the suspect did it, they still have to go through the work to eliminate them to find who did it, if anyone. That helped his ego. :laugh2:

He's still convinced it will happen eventually, so he's still stuck on worrying about when it does happen (like planning for the arrival and affording all the stuff and whatnot). He wants to have kids, but it scares him at the same time. I feel the same way, but I'm worried about getting PG first, and what to do after, I'll worry about then. :P Plus, I figure it'll still be a while. Wouldn't mind the long journey if I just knew when it ended - it's like taking a long car trip to an unknown destination. I wanna ask "Are we there yet?" and this month the answer appears to be "No". :fool:
 
My fingers are crossed for all the girlies who are ttc :-)

Big hugs to you all.

Well today is my littlest mans birthday! 3 today so not so little anymore!! Busy day ahead as we are having a tea party at home for him!
The 3 years have seriously flown by i can remember the day i had him like it was yesterday! Even remember what i had for breakfast that morning lol!!

Best get on with things! xx
 
I am back to cycle day 1 myself. I had an annovulatory cycle but got my break through bleeding at cd41 which is great. Normally its cd50-60. Good luck to everyone.

Fingers are crossed you all get your 2013 babies

:hugs:
