Anyone LTTTC Number One?

[Feisty Fidget]

You must be psychic

Speaking of psychic I think I will crack out the tarot cards a friend brought me for Christmas. I have always wanted to learn but have not had the time, next week I should though

So do any of my fellow British have plans for Jubilee celebrations? I have organised a picnic in the gorgeous park across the road from me. I should have recovered enough to drink my weight in pimms and I am already getting requests from DH and friends for certain bakes to take along I have declared that all the girls must dress up in their finest to make the queen proud. I have just brought a lovely bebeau dress from ebay that is florally and girly whilst being really quite cute! Have decided to make some jewellery to match my awesome heels so will feel like a princess for the day For once DH is even agreeing to come! Usually he refuses to socialise so this is huge! I am getting very excited

We are planning a little street party for my nieces and their friends as there is a nice secure playing area behind my sisters house so wont have to worry about cars and obvioulssy a few drinks for the adults as well

 

[Feisty Fidget]

Sounds good to me Amy

Me and Hubby are making the most of the extra 2 days of holiday and going to Cornwall for a week, it might be the only holiday we get this year, as I am having to use my Holiday allowance for IVF

Sorry the got you Lucy and re: IVF it'll come round soon enough.... i agree have a large glass of something alcoholic and enjoy this rare sunshine

Ash - hope your partners results come back okay and you don't have to worry about CF

Welcome Lorna

Good luck FF - hope everything goes well today and your seen sooner rather than later.

AFM - had a bit of disappointing news re: starting IVF. Appt went well and we're all set to go, but a new protocol has come in since the last time we did it and they needed to do another blood test for Hep B and as my OH wasn't with me (we thought we were being clever as we'd done it before that he didn't need to go with me this time, he's a primary school teacher so its difficult for him to get off work) that i'd just go, gets the meds and then start the cycle on sat but oh no nothing ever works out that simple. Its not the end of the world it just means another cycle before I get to start (as the protocol i'm on you start on CD21 of your cycle).... silver lining i'm going to be joining you Lucy with a large glass of something alcoholic and i've got a couple of weddings coming up in june which i can now get merry at!

hope everyone else is having a good day x

 

[Dazed]

Good luck FF.

Ash - Sorry about the CF diagnosis. Praying for you that DH doens't have the marker for it either. Docs though my DH had CF but lucky for me it turned out to just be asthma.

Glad the surgery went well MrsH.

to everyone else. Still stalking away.

Dazed - fxed for you this cycle!

[Feisty Fidget]

Thanks everyone home now - whole story in my journal

Will catch up with you all properly tomorrow xxx

 

[LornaMJ]

Hi all, thank you for the welcomes I am pondering whether to test or not today..I am 3 days late now and still no sign of AF. My DH thinks I should wait till CD36 as that is the longest I have been before but very rare for me.I see the practice nurse next week which by then a will be a week late, if the doesn't rear her ugly head she may take a blood test. Either way will keep you all updated. Baby dust all around

 

[urchin]

lol Mrs H - yes and yes!

scan was Friday and Eenie is indeed a sheenie
we're very very happy

 

[Dazed]

Yay for team pink!

Lorna - I would wait until my longest cycle length to test, but thats just me. And welcome! I'm more of a stalker than a talker.

 

[LornaMJ]

Dazed I am going to take your advice on board and test CD36 which will be 30th May and when I visit the nurse!! All fx and will keep you all updated!!

 

[Feisty Fidget]

I agree with Dazed - I always wait until I am way over my longest LP so that I am not disappointed

Hi ladies could I join?
Been with OH 3 years and came off bcp jan 2010 been actively trying since jan 2011 so been 17months for us. Had all our tests back I have low progesterone this month 5 so not ovulating, OH has low everything morphology at 1% this month. We've been referred now just gotta wait for an appointment. Just really looking for support feel like everyone around us is pregnant and we've been told its not gunna happen naturally. Was two weeks late this month af came today so disappointed I have very regular 35day cycles so was quietly hopeful but no such luck. Xx

 

[MrsHowley81]

Hi Lucy, no idea how long until my appointment but my FS seemed to think there wouldn't be a delay at all

Urchin, I can just imagine how happy you are with that, I love pink, I am so happy I was right, I know you shouldn't have a preference, and I don't really..... after this much time and what I have had to go through I really don't care weather I have a boy or girl in the least, but I do prefer girls names

FF I hope you are feeling as well as can be expected today, Make the most of feeling sleepy and rest xx

 

[Feisty Fidget]

welcome ikmju4 I am sure you will find lots of support here

 

[Feisty Fidget]

Thanks MrsHowley I feel great!

It feels like a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders I spent the whole time I was pregnant convinced something was wrong - either that we were going to lose the baby or that there was a severe defect. I feel relieved not to have to feel so sick with worry all the time.

I think that next time (sadly I fear there will be a next time) I will probably opt for a D&C again as I now agree with the ladies that have said it is preferable to natural MC. Should be back in the TTC game in a week or so

 

[MrsHowley81]

Good Luck FF, I can't wait to start trying again..... Just for fun obviously, but it is still nice to be able to. I am glad you are feeling relived and I hope you never have to go through this again, LTTTC is hard enough already, it's about time you got a break xxx
