Hi ladies! Hope you all have a great day!

:wave: Angel, can you post a link to the house? I would love to see it too!!!

 

[Lisasmith]

[Mum 2 Quigley]

Yay Lainey!!!

Safe trip nana

Good job on the exercise angel, might get your body back in action a bit quicker being active!

Have a great day everyone, I have a feeling it's going to be a bit quiet with Melainey and nana out if action!

Morning ladies!

Congratulations on the job lainey!!! I've got an interview with another modelling agency on thursday so hopefully I can get some work, can't get the furniture I want without it! : ) Plus I think I will go crazy if I watch anymore daytime tv!!

I'm so with you on being nervous about sex with an early bfp! I think I woud be exactly the same, Dh has already asked me if I'm going to be ok about sex when pg and I said yes but I think the very early stages are different. Then again it's all natural so should probably just go with your bodies instincts!!

As for me I had a bit of light spotting but it stopped and now at 14dpo my temp is still 36.8 with a cover line of 36.2. I took my last test yesterday and still bfn so I think my body is just screwing with me, if AF holds off I might buy a few more today but not sure!!

Hope everybody has a lovely day and safe trip sasha! XXxx

Hi...well I think I have caught up

Squiggley...glad those spermies look good! At least it's one thing you can tick off!

Lainey...yay for a job!

Angel...glad the house is looking promising! Looks lovely. Will definitely be coming for a swim! Good job on the exercise, I've been walking/jogging every morning- its nice to get out and stretch a bit and get some oxygen to this little bub!

Jayney, wait another couple of days and test again...remember implantation can happen upto 12dpo, so potentially there's a chance you're only 2days pregnant! You never know! Fx'd for you. If it isn't your month though I think it's good to have a break, get your head back around it and enjoy your hubby without e pressure of timed sex and all the TTC stress!

I'm off to take poppy for a hearing test today. Either she has hearing issues or she's very ignorant & it's a behavioral issue! As bad as it sounds it would much easier if it was a simple hearing issue (like needing grommets or something!) I had them so I'm wondering if it's just similar and her hearing is muffled! She's generally well behaved but she struggles to follow instructions if im not in her face talking to her. She pays no attention if we're at the shops or in crowds or if I call her from the other end of the house she doesn't seem to hear me and we don't have the TV or music On much...hopefully we'll get the results straight away! Hope you all have a lovey day! X

i am amazed how high my temp was this morning.... i will be at work tomorrow so we may see a drop in temp.... i dont seem to be having any symptoms... barely tender nipps and the odd twinge near uterus area and the odd mood swing anger at DH as per 8dpo today so 5 days away from AF... we will see.

Nice chart Pam, I see we're back in sync again this month - must be your cycle getting longer

Thanks... my LP is usually 12 or 13 days. but I was having 34 or 37 day cycles... I hope the AC has been working.

Goid luck with the agency, honey
I wish your body would stop messing with you and just give you a bfp already

Look at those temps, pammy!

Hi girls!! Pammy your chart is looking REALLY GOOD! Congrats on the new job Melainey Welcome to Melbourne Nanna!!! Hope the cold stays away for you but doubt you will have much time to enjoy yourself with your crazy work schedule

Can't remember but was it you Lisa who was starting SMEP this cycle too? My SMEP-ing starts tonight lol! Crazy busy today so will jump on when I can xxxx

 

[number2woohoo]

Mum2 - hope it's good. See if you can get the exact figures and then we can compare (our poor DHs)!

For the record, ours:

Viscosity abnormal (high) pH 8
Motile 46 million/ml
Motility 70% but only 34% of those were rapid (remaining 10 % medium, 26% slow, 30% static)
Morphology 6% Normal, 95% Abnormal (Slight amorph 16%, abnormal 79%) - yes the numbers add up to 101% I don't know why!

Apparently this is a low count but I'm yet to find any info on exactly WHAT the Aussie standards are. Apparently the Aust standard for defining "low sperm count" is different to the WHO standard.

count: 82 million/ml
motility: rapidly progressive - >/= 25%
: rapidly + slowly progressive - >/= 50%
Morphology: 27%

Doctor said it all seems ok. numbers seem low to me (based on no knowledge) but after looking it up, it seems fairly spot on I guess. He wrote me a reference to a gyno (who also specialises in fertility) so I will call them tomorrow.

I was reading out SA on the way home, making comments & DH was like why do you keep looking into it when you don't know anything about it...my sperm are fine, so stop going on about it...

I can see why he didn't want me to go on about it or think he had a problem, but he clearly didn't think about what him being fine means for me.... I'm not too worried at this stage, cos I know we haven't really been trying for that long, but I just want to know that everything is fine... He could be a little more sensitive to me tho...he doesn't get that it might upset me...it's a pretty touchy subject these days...

anyway...rant over. hope you're all well!

BIG big hugs love xoxo

Hope there is something easily fixed there xo

 

[number2woohoo]

Yeah, I think it will be short lived squiggles, the letter will be sent to my boss tomorrow/weds and when she sees it I think she'll lose it!!!!

Gotta snooze, much love gals xxx

Now why on earth would she get to read it?
It is for the boss!
Nothing to do with her!

I've got a self imposed sex ban going on in our house too (much to DF's delight lol).

We actually have dtd a few times since getting a BFP but then for some reason I freaked out and thought we better stop until 12 weeks. on the drive home from the scan on Saturday DF asked since the scan was good does that mean we can have sex tonight. I swear I don't know how he has enough blood left in his head to function sometimes. Anyway, the ban is still on until Wednesday when I'm sure DF will remind me anyway!

We've not had any action since the BFP either. Think Stu is more scared than he is letting on. He isn't even talking about it like it's a viable pregnancy yet. He refuses to discuss even things like that I'll need to turn the guest room into a nursery, or that I might need to buy this or that item. When I said "When the baby is born in May..." he corrected me with "IF there's a baby in May"

 

[Pammy31]

Amanda is that a little cruel?

Edit: Thank you ladies... this month feels completely different from the rest....

He does sound really scared

Hi number2, I think our men provide 'the realists' opinions to us. As much as they want to see us happy, they don't want to see us sad and miserable and by them sometimes saying the stuff they do, they probably think they are lessoning our falls. That's what I think anyway! Either way, I still scream at mine lol!

 

[Rosie_PA]

Amanda he sounds terrified!! Poor guy!!
