Hey girls - I have a message to pass on from Joanna.

Will you please pass this along to the smep girls-

Please let everyone that I miss them and I am sorry I have not been around much. Clomid is making me crazy bitchy and my headaches are unbearable. Under a lot of stress with the move AND ttc at the same time. Trying to keep busy and keep my mind off of things. I will check in soon- I promise. DUST!

Amy - I had my positive OPK on Monday but my temp shift was today. So FF is going to say that O day was yesterday, Weds. I BD'ed all the way up until yesterday. Last night we didn't get to BD. So technically I missed BD'ing on my O day? Though I swore I O'ed on Tues when I had crazy cramps.

Jaime - thanks. Fx!

Lisa - say hi to Joanna for me!

May - The actual day of OV has the least chance of ending up PG. It's the days before that are good. I'm gonna try and find the info...

Comparison of Cumulative Probability of Conception by day of Intercourse:

Day after OV - 0%
Day of OV - 5%
One day before OV - 26%
Two days before OV - 28%
Three days before OV - 13%
Four days before OV - 13%
Five days before OV - 0%

May - We didn't BD on the day of O either so I think you have your bases covered!

Gemma - I am so happy to know that you are doing better. I can't believe your wedding is so soon! Exciting times and you are going to make a beautiful bride!

Amy - I'd still trade places with you and take your ms if I could! I would be happy to experience it just once and then I know I would feel a little more reassured.

Lisa - I have my fingers crossed for you & May - I think we are going to have to update the front page sooner than later!

Jaime - You have such a great bump! I look HUGE but I have only gained a pound. lol

AFM, My Doctor is going to set up an early ultrasound and right now I am just waiting for the appointment so I feel a little better knowing I don't have to wait until September for an u/s. Hoping to get my appointment tomorrow and by Sunday our Helicopter service should end and our ferry should be back!

Guess that's why SMEP is so effective, BDing every other day and 3 days after a +opk almost guarantees the spem will be waiting for that eggy to drop.

I feel much better knowing I might not have missed an opportunity!

Jess - Good luck with your scan!

Lisa, I'm on cd 17 of a 29 day cycle. My stomach has been feeling unsettled the last 2 days, I know it's too early to symptom spot, it's probably just something I ate.

May, every month I start with a good feeling a chicken out and don't use the OPK. I guess I worry it won't matter as I won't really know which side I'm ovulating on. I think my left side is pretty much useless and the odds of my right Fallopian tube picking up the egg from the left ovary is unlikely.

Gemma, I'm glad your focussing on your wedding as you need a distraction. The 3 month wait is hard but I think it's important both physically and emotionally. It took me 2 months to physically start feeling myself again but I still felt tired a lot. I wore yoga pants for almost 3 weeks as I felt so uncomfortable. The stitching can also get itchy, I had staples and they were removed a week later, my scar will never let me forget but I know there was nothing I could have done and time has helped. I'm sure you'll be feeling better by your wedding. Stay focused on all the positives in your life. Sending big hugs your way.

[Bride2b]

Hey girls, where the hell is everyone? I know I havent posted....been lurking as clearly have nothing to report! This WTT is just bull shit, I have been reading up on the internet about ectopic, some people were told they could try again after they felt emotionally ok. I know my insides must be in a bit of a mess still as I still get pain and still have brusing and stitches, I just wonder if 3 months is actually necessary? Anyone know? I cant wait that long to start TTC again as its more than likely gonna take me longer now anyway!

 

[jrowenj]

Not sure, gemma. I hope u can start soon

 

[Bride2b]

Just doing loads of reading, there are not many ectopic threads (I hope thats a good thing!) Some people have just started straight away, I am in two minds really. I want to but am scared that things inside wont be healed! But then I think it might take longer this time so why not get the ball rolling? Lovebot had an ectopic and got preggers about 3 months after I seem to remember? From when I started bleeding it would mean I would probably O around my wedding. I might go back to my reflexologist and tell her to stimulate my ovaries etc, I am sure the reflexology last time helped me. I know she will be reluctant and tell me I need to recover first. I just dont think I can wait!!!!
