Anyone LTTTC Number One?

[Sticky Beans]

Fingers crossed for you FF!

I'm On CD29 today, generally AF turns up between 30 - 35 for me, I feel like I'm due on as well, got my usual few spots and getting twinges so think the biatch will be here soon 
I've not tested at all this month but not had any symptoms this month - not even had any lying tits! So don't feel too hopefull.

Welcome to the newbies!

Hello Ladies, How are you all? what's the latest news for you all, I don't suppose we've had any bfp's yet, be amazing if we did.
AFM I had my appointment today for my Laparosxopy and Hysteroscopy It's on December 5th, funny how it takes no time for an appointment for surgery, yet a HSG took 3 months to get in, anyway just looking forward to getting it out of the way now xx

@Sticky, Good luck hun, I hope the stays away!!!!

@Mrshowley, I wish you all the best and hope that your upcoming surgery goes well, is pain free and you have a quick and speedy recovery...

AFM, i have really soar nipples and also the end of my breasts are tender to the touch around my nipples. I did get some faint second lines and have a testing thread going in the HPT gallery, but for some reason I feel like AF is going to crash my party. I also have some light AF cramps which I normally get right before AF arrives, and I am craving all kinds of junk food, and feeling really hormonal. Me and DH have been picking at eachother all day over silly stuff all day too...I pigged out on Mcdonalds burger and fries for dinner...ugghhh.. So all I can do is wait it out and see what happens, I am trying to pump my breaks on testing for now so I dont make myself go too insane with early testing!! We canceled our thanksgiving plans to travel and go be with family because DH caught my cold and is sick, we also are kind of strapped for cash right now and to be toally honest with you really cant afford to travel right now either.

I also wanted to wish all of you lovely ladies a very Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Happy Thanksgiving wannabeprego! I will keep my fingers crossed for you hun!

 

[Feisty Fidget]

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our wonderful cousins across the pond!

Wannabe are you going to see GP about getting a test to check on these positive HPT?

AFM temp dropped this morning at CD14 so I believe I will ovulate tomorrow, don't feel so bad about messing up the bedding schedule now as I needed to ovulate on CD17 for it to actually work

Still holding out for that !

Wannabe and FF - fingers crossed for you both!

I join in sending good vibes and FX to wannabe and FF too!!

I know what you mean about hope. It's so hard because everyone says "yayyyy pos mental attitude" but it never works and the more hopeful I feel the more depressed I get when AF arrives

I know what u mean fisher i am the same i was really hopeful and positive this month then yesturday started with the crap before af (sorry tmi) which has brought me back down with a bang, i was so gutted i couldn't stop crying and told the oh i don't think it's ever gonna happen and that i understand if he doesn't want to be with me lol. I was an absolute mess. The oh was really good tho he gave me a big hug and told me he isn't going anywhere and we will have a baby even if we have to buy one pmsl, i did say we can't go to home bargains and get one, they don't sell em.. Bless him he did cheer me up xx i hope ur ok? X

Good morning ladies. Today I am 11 or 12 dpo and my temp dropped to JUST above the coverline, so I am assuming Im out again this month. This news is going to make for such a hard day. I have a harder and harder time enjoying holidays. I wanted to be sharing and creating holiday traditions with my own children by now!!! Going through the motions of days like today just feel pointless to me right now.

I went to a family dinner last weekend at my OH's brothers house. He wanted everyone to come meet his son's newly pregnant (oops) now-fiance. I was dreading it because I new how hard it would be on my overly-sensitive nerves (Im to the point that being around pregnant women and babies makes me cry at the drop of a hat). I was doing pretty well until the same brothers 18year old daughter announce that she too is (oops) pregnant. Really??? Two teens accidently knocked up!!! And me standing in the middle f them feeling worthless and like Im not even a woman.

Its going to be such a long day. I dont want my poor DH to find me in turns again this morning. He has to be getting soooooo tired of it.

Awww... I love your OH's response! It does suck and it is so frustrating to be hopeful and then get disappointed time after time. I think that's why for me having the weightloss goals help because even if I get bummed out from bfn's or AF hiding, I still get cheered by seeing that at least in SOMETHING I'm making some progress. It's a bit of a hollow victory, but it does help cheer me up a bit.

Ugh. That would be hard for all of us I think. *hugs* I hope you still have a happy Thanksgiving regardless. I had a bfn this morning too, so I'm in somewhat the same boat.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you lovely ladies!! I hope you girls have a wonderful day. Me and DH are spending the holidays together at home this year and cooking our own thanksgiving dinner. DH prepped some of the food this morning. We got a small turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes that i am going to candy and bake with marshmallows etc. Of course we have pumpkin and apple pie for desert as well. We were going to travel up north to be with family this year but DH caught my cold and got sick after i was starting to get over my cold. So we didnt want to have to drive 7 hours and than bring our colds to all of my nieces and nephews, which now total 9 altogether. Plus we are a little strapped for cash right now which makes the cost of traveling difficult for us right now. I feel bad we arent going but it was too much this year I think. But, the good news is that my entire family will be getting together the weekend before Christmas so we should be able to see everyone than in just a few weeks!! I was also dreading having AF arrive well I was with my family for Thanksgiving and I was worried about crying in front of everyone as well because AF could arrive anytime now. Only my DH and my mom know how hard LTTC has been on me..

@MrsHannah and Tasha... huge hugs going out to both of you ladies!!!! This LTTC is really heart breaking month after month. When AF shows up it always feels like someone just stomped on your heart.

@Fiesty, I wont be getting any blood work done unless AF is pretty late, and I can get past my longest cycle which was 33 days, but that has only happened like twice in the last pasty 2 plus years. My cycles range from about 25 to 33 days, with an average of about 28 days.

It's funny because I was also talking to DH about how if I had known that TTC was going to be such a challenge for us than we would of started this process several years ago, when we would of been able to afford to pay for the infertility treatments that we need back when DH was making alot more money when he had a different job than what he has now!!! Than I was saying how we would of had a toddler running around the house by this time and how quiet the house is with just me and DH and our dog. Sigh...

Hang in there girls, our times will come....

 

[Feisty Fidget]

Oh Hanna, Tasha and wannabe we all feel you pain This is all so crap and unfair! I still have the childish naive outlook that life should be fair and am constantly whining when it isn't

Well even more bad luck for us today, I went down to find my car had been clamped We own our flat (well technically the bank does but we pay a mortgage ) and my car was in my assigned parking space but I had forgotten to display my permit. I had to pay £130 to get the car released ($202) and there is no chance of getting it back as despite the company having my registration details on file they are saying it is solely my fault. DH was not a happy bunny as we are already £400 short for bills this month and we are still waiting on a possible fine for me speeding too I know I sound terrible but this really isn't like me, I am usually a fine upstanding citizen!

So I figure that something has to go our way soon We have our fertility appointment tomorrow and if I get bad news there I am likely to turn into a snivelling snotty mess right there with the specialist.

 

[dodgercpkl]

Aww FF I'm so sorry about the rash of bad luck lately. I'm praying for some amazing luck to start heading your way! *hugs*

 

[mrshanna]

Thanks for the support ladies. This is the most supportive bunch of women!!! Sorry about the bad luck FF. I hope your appointment tomorrow brings you a turn around!

I feel you- had to see my 2.5 yr old nephew and 6 month old niece today at Thanksgiving.

Yeah I'm with you both on that. My niece (8) and nephew (3) were here yesterday and I love them to pieces but it just makes me even more crazy to have a child of my own. Then there's my SIL. I love her dearly but every 5 min she was saying things like "Are you sure you want one? I mean if you don't have one you don't have to deal with this". Ok. I'm not 5. I do know that having a child means going through rough times, pouts, crying, screaming etc. You just really aren't helping with your comment because YES! I do still want one. I'm very sure. Ugh.

Hey ladies, just thought I would pop in and give you all an update. I have finally decided that waiting for IVF on the NHS here is going to be a long process...I recently have found out (and not from the FS) that I am not officially on the waiting list. So in the meantime I have decided to book a private FS appointment which is on Tuesday. I am hoping that the FS will give me Clomid or find something else that could be the problem rather than being unexplained.

Today I am on CD16 and possible 1DPO. I got two peaks on my CBFM this cycle which I am pleased about as I have not had a Peak on it for a while. I am thinking it could have been a bad batch of sticks and it was stressing me out so I stopped using it for a good while. I am thinking that I O'd yesterday but my temp this morning it not go as high as I would have like and to give me the confidence to say I am not officially in the 2WW.

Big hugs to all you ladies that are going through a rough time lately. It is really hard when you hear of people falling pregnant especially those that fall within a month or two or those who unexpectantly fall pg. I have had so many of those around me in the 3 years I have been actively TTCing. At the beginning it was so hurtful but for some reason I am feeling stronger now and even those I still get the odd twinge of sadness when I hear of a pg...I just lift myself up and carry on now. Maybe I got that way because I really don't like DH to see me upset. He did noticed how upset I would have got when AF arrived and he said he gets upset that I am upset. So I have learnt to build a thick layer of skin. I do still feel sad when I see all my nieces, all three of them are 2 and under. I had started TTCing just after my sil found out she was pg with the first niece who is now 2...she now has her second and bil as now got one. Hope that makes sense.

Big hugs to everyone xxx
