Aussies trying to get duffered aged 20+ !!!

[LLPM]

Hi ladies.

Cossi, so glad you're feeling about it all! Good on you for making the choice. I think with TTC it all seems so beyond us so its nice to feel in control a bit more...even if that means NTNP!

Sorry for those feeling yucky! I'm feeling awful today too but definitely not morning sickness. The girls have been sick since Tuesday and now it seems I've caught it although I haven't vomited or the other end! (Sorry TMI?!) my tummy is just turning and I feel so nauseas and gurgly. I have really bad tummy cramps that have me doubling up! Liam let me sleep in til 11:30 and he took the girls out for the morning (thank goodness - otherwise we'd all go stir crazy i think!) Now we're just sitting on the couch watching TV. So over all these bugs jumping on us...we've been sick for 4 of the last 6weeks with one thing or another!

Hope you're all having lovely Saturdays!

I agree Abby!sstress is sooooooo bad! Last month I had a Ef it attitude and drank when I wanted etc and even forgot to take my vits a couple of days and it worked out good! If possible I think that approach is good tests are just something that has to be done honey, don't worry, and it means the quicker they catch something the quicker you have bub I know it's daunting but we are all here for you when you need to talk xxx

Me too! I gave up being careful the month we conceived too! I had a glass baileys probably every 2 out of 3 nights for the whole cycle even post Ovulation, had a glass of wine with friends and ate 'high risk' foods. I'm not worried!

You guys seriously need a health break! Get better xxx

 

[Melainey]

Oh Lucy I hope that you and the babies get better soon Xx

Newbie- I avoided the "SA" talk as it was DH who boughT up the topic. I was going to dr for chck up and blood tests and taking vitamins etc and he said "its been ages since he had a full check up and u never know it could be me that's the problem" so he did it on his own.

I am in a better place. The light at the end is a pinhead size but I can see it. I work with drugs and if I am sick I take cold and flu tabs if a headache I have Panadol so why not use drugs to help ttc? I have a head full of snot at the moment and grabbing some meds made me come to that conclusion.

Cossime - a break is a great idea. We headed to barrier reef after our wedding last year. BDing everyday by the beach, helicopter ride to a deserted island with a picnic lunch, diving on Whitehaven beach.... Got no baby out of it but was such a great time just the two of us I have never been able to relax ever since school so I find it hard to switch off and not concntrate that it's O day. That's probably where I am going wrong

Hope everyone has a great day x

I have to tell you my aunts story. Her and my uncle tried for 8 whole years to have a baby. All the drugs, all the tests etc. they booked in to begin the Ivf journey and next thing they know.. Pregnant. No drugs no nothing! They had 3 babies in 3 years and she ended up getting her tubes tied!

 

[Abby27]

I love stories like that Smithy! thanks for sharing! we all get our BFP in the end, we just have different journeys.

 

[LLPM]

That's a lovely story smithy! I'm sure they went through so much heartache, but worth it in the end. I haven't met/heard of many people who can't have kids unless there's an obvious problem, like severe endometriosis or very low sperm count etc. maybe I'm wrong but it seems those people who are diagnosed with unexplained infertility go on to have kids eventually, whether through IVF, sperm/egg donor etc.
I'm sure all will be fine kiwi. I also forgot where you're upto? Are you waiting for an appointment with the FS? Glad to hear you're feeling a bit better today. I totally agree with the taking drugs thing. I personally avoid them at all costs, but the fact is they were created to help and have been tested for safety. Drugs like clomid etc have great success rates. Have you tried natural alternatives? Like vitamins or herbs etc?

 

[Newbie32]

Thanks girls xxx

Dh isn't opposed to the test (or so he says now!!! We shall see when it comes time to provide the sample!!!) so I guess off to the docs we go next month...knowledge is power right!

You might be onto something with the temping abs, I might see if I feel like taking it approaching o this week...to know when I actually do...we shall see...

Much love girls xx glad to hear you can see the light kiwi, I hope to join you in that slightly brighter place soon x

 

[Newbie32]

Ps cossie, I bet you come back from your hols duffered!! X

 

[Pammy31]

i am gonna keep opking...my last one was getting darker... today... maybe a cd25 ov as ff and myfert dont say i have oved.

 

[Abby27]

Pammy because your pre ov temps were so high, i dont think you will see cross hairs, doesnt mean you didnt ov.
may be CD 19?

 

[Lisasmith]

Are you back on the ttc train, Pammy?

 

[Newbie32]

Yeah I think maybe rely on your ferning this month pammy? Confusing business sometimes isn't it! X

 

[Lisasmith]

Our bodies are crazy things!

 

[Pammy31]

not really ttc just trying to find a close medium of the time i ovulate. i will be seeing a naturopath in november to see if there is an issue. I talked to DH that I would like a baby before 35. As I am 31 I would like to know now if there is issues.

 

[Pammy31]

please ladies what day do you think i ovulated.

 

[Maddy40]

I have to tell you my aunts story. Her and my uncle tried for 8 whole years to have a baby. All the drugs, all the tests etc. they booked in to begin the Ivf journey and next thing they know.. Pregnant. No drugs no nothing! They had 3 babies in 3 years and she ended up getting her tubes tied!

My GP said she really dislikes these stories because the reality is that if you haven't conceived after 12 months then you probably need some sort of diagnostics and/or assistance of some type. These stories are lovely, but they are a small percentage and many, many people keep persisting when in fact they should be seeking specialist advice. Lucky aunty, Smithy! I would be really happy with just one sticky BFP, hopefully sooner than the next 8 years!!!

 

[cossime]

Thanks for your king words girls

Pammy, I think cd19 and agree with Abby ... Wait for tomorrow's temp how's DH on the FTC thing these days?

Love hearing stories like that too Lucy I firmly believe we will all get there in the end and not to rule out anything...there are so many options for us now

Smithy, lainey, number2, llpm, Rosie & squeegs: how is the nausea/ms going?

2mums and ginny: are u guys still having any sickness?

Hi maddy! Are u back from your holiday yet?

 

[cossime]

Nice chart there maddy!
