Aussies trying to get duffered aged 20+ !!!

[Maddy40]

Oh abs so sorry hun u are feeling low. I wish I could say something to make it all right but I am in that place to

Yesterday didn't go to plan. I have nothing on my right side and one great follicle, 2 good ones and 2 ok ones so back to scan today to see. Might be voiding IVF this cycle. There is talk of IUI instead but it will be done in the middle of sil wedding tomorrow so the option c is just good ol fashion bd tonight and in the morning and hope for the best. Looking at another clinic as the one I am in closes for Xmas which means we can't try IVF again until jan which means I lose 3 cycles seeing my cycles are so short. Argghhhhh so frustrating
Will know more later on today.

Ah Kiwi drats. Didn't they give you enough drugs to boot up the right-hand side? Will they do a different protocol next time around? Or do they think you don't O on that side at all? I think most women generally alternate which side we O each month (right-hand one month, left hand the next month). So maybe you're not O-ing 50% of the time which would affect the chances at a natural BFP I guess? AHAHAHGHGHG so many questions and so few answers for any of us. Most of the time I hate this TTC process. (P.S. I'm off to the FS on Monday to get our results & find out where we are headed....) Hugs to you xxxx

 

[Maddy40]

thanks Nana! i then said that may be i was PMSy so she said to make sure im nice to the dog and my husband! um....ok!
She then told me that when she was pregnant she was tired and sore boobs....but never bitchy like me!
great, thanks mother.

i really shouldnt get so upset. i have a loving husband, a great dog, you lovely ladies.....im being a little selfish brat, but that just makes me all the more pissed. this woman who announced her pregancy today didnt even want one! thats right, didnt WANT ONE! at all! now "wow this is really happening" ARGH

Well Abby, FWIW when I got my BFP I totally didn't want it. That's why we were NTNP since we got married. I basically felt our family was done but DH really wanted to parent a baby so.... HOWEVER once those hormones kicked in, the turnaround was pretty amazing for me. And the subsequent loss was dreadful. And of course now I want a BFP and can't for the life of me get one

Oh Abs sorry you're feeling low. My mum said a similar thing to me. Except she said "Your father only had to look at me and we were pregnant". Ew. That's what I have to say about that, Dad.

Kiwi - that sucks but it could be worse - I really hope you fluke it in with the good follicle this month!

Night girlies xo

 

[Maddy40]

Hi everyone!

Maddy - I was trying to think of what TGIF meant.....thought for ages and decided it must mean 'thank god I farted' hahaha I now realise it must meant thank god its friday. lol my bad!! hahaha

Ha! Visualise my cup of tea spewing out my nostrils Mum2Q BTW you are so right about ignorant people. I can't believe how many people have basically intimated that adoption is "second-best" and say things like "oh I couldn't raise a child that didn't look like me" or "oh I could never love a child that wasn't born to me as much as a biological child". Urgh they can all get stuffed.

 

[ginny83]

So many stupid people out there.

The dad of one of my best friends though LOL meant Lots of Love. Someone close to her husband died and her dad sent a text to her hubby saying something along the lines of "Sorry to hear the sad news LOL"... hehe sad situation, but a bit funny

 

[number2woohoo]

Oh, Ginny!

LOL.

 

[ginny83]

hehe I love accidental funny moments like that

 

[Melainey]

What does FWIW mean? Sorry I never use short hand like that I just can't stand it haha!

Maddy glass you survived DH's driving ;-) haha

Ginny that's hilarious, the poor guy haha

 

[Newbie32]

For what it's worth hun xxx

Night all, so tired xxx

 

[Melainey]

Ooh haha thank you goodnight sweetness xxx

 

[MajorBee]

Hope you're sleeping well my Aussie-based sleeping beauties!

Hiya to kiwi & Rosie, my kindred rogue Aussies-abroad

So sorry to hear Abs & Kiwi are in dark places. Thinking of you both and if it helps at all remember that the sun rises anew every single day. You will get through this in one piece and with greater strength. You'll both make the most excellent of mummies and you'll get the privilege of doing so really soon. It'll happen girls xx

I'm enjoying a slow Friday arvo. DD is napping (freakin woohoo for naps!) and I'm obviously BnB-ing. With a bloody great big mug of tea. Decaf of course, as I'm floating in the tww! Bacon sandwiches are good for developing fetuses, right? 8dpo & two days till my first false negative

 

[MajorBee]

Insomnia Lainey?

 

[Mum 2 Quigley]

Morning! Hope your bacon sandwich was awesome major. Can't beat it- bacon, fresh white bread, lots of butter & BBQ sauce. YUM! May as well rub it straight on my thighs, but I can never stop at one! Haha

Maddy, that's pathetic that people would say that. They obviously dont know what it's like to be a parent. You don't care where they come from, its that they're there & they're yours and if that's not enough for someone, they shouldn't be parents! To be completely honest, I'm interested to see how giving birth to a child if my own changes the dynamics of my relationship with dss, I wonder if I will love him more after I experience that 'unconditional love' that they say comes with a baby, I know our situations are different as mine is a step child where yours are your children. I don't for a second think you can't care for or love a child any differently because it didn't grow inside you. I take my hat off to you for being strong through the times where people say stuff like that! Xx

Can't remember anything else, sorry that was a bit long winded!

Hope you're ok today abs!

Hi nana Jo!

Love you all! Xxx

 

[MajorBee]

Hi lovely ladies

Woohoo it's Fri night here!

Hey Sqeegee, just worked that where you are I'm 9dpo already

Hope everyone slept well.

I put DD to bed about an hour ago. 45 mins later she's grizzling & whining. I leave her to it cos she usually sorts herself out, but she's pretty persistent. I go in to see her and she's only done a MASSIVE poo! Unlike her at night time. Poor chicken! She's all clean and snoozing now bless her.

Don't know why but thought you might be interested...

Anyhow, who's testing this weekend?! Cossie? Abs?

Kiwi did you have another appt today? How are those follies going?

 

[Mum 2 Quigley]

Major, poor little thing! Lol not to worry, worse things have happened to kids! How old us she? I'm glad you figured out a way to be one day Ahead of ovulation!! Haha What's your plan for your Friday night? Xx

 

[SJayne22]

Hi girlies, how cruel is this, Dh got up in the night and I take my temp and it was 37. But then I wake up a bit later and realise I was dreaming so take it again and it's still the same so go back to sleep. Just woke up now and turns out it was all a dream! Instead I get 36.6 perfect drop ready for Af today or tomorrow. Life!

 

[number2woohoo]

Can't believe anyone would say that about an adopted child. Really, what horrible things to say! It's just rubbish.

I can believe ppl say horrible stuff about BF because I have experienced it. I had someone tell me I didn't try hard enough when my milk failed when H was 4 1/2 months old. I was an absolute mess about it already and I think it was pure exhaustion that did it - I stupidly bought a new house before selling the old one right at the end of my pregnancy and had to renovate the old one to sell it. So I was working 7 days a week about 10 hours a day on renovations - I reckon I'd get through The Block (tv show) with my hands tied behind my back after that. Also add in the stress of paying 2 mortgages while on unpaid maternity leave, and umpteen specialist appointments for my baby. Now I see it's no wonder my milk chucked it in, something had to give! So this cow told me it was because I didn't try hard enough. Up her bum. I ended up losing a whole bunch of friends over it - an entire mums group. Women can be unbearably cruel.

MajorBee I have has my. Hold do the same thing! I felt terrible when I realised I was leaving him to self settle in a pile of poo, poor little lamb chop.

Yay - the weekend is here

 

[number2woohoo]

My hold?
My child, I meant by that.

Oh no, dreaming you woke up from a dream sounds too confusing! You're not out till that fat lady sings, hun x

 

[MajorBee]

She's 16 months Sqeegee, still sleeping soundly, yay! She's a pretty good sleeper now.
Ababa, didn't spend too long feeling like a bad mummy! She's a trouper. A trouper with a clean bum now.

I'm watching Breaking Bad tonight, after a take away curry. So very rock n roll darling. All the hip kids are doing it.

How are we all this morning?
