Haha us and our master plans......

How are all the little beans doing???

Hope 2nums & their little one is ok!!!

Are the duffered ones going to find out the sex??

And are the soon to be duffered ones going to find out when they are in a duffed up state?

Angel, any news from your doc yet on whether its the long term or short term problem? Hope you're back in the ttc game soon!!!

Definitely. We found out with Harrison. This time I'd need to know if I needed to buy girl clothes or if I had what I needed.

:jo: i hope it all works out for you, but better yet i hope you get duffers and can stuff the lot of you i'm going to work on making a human instead!!
angel- hoping you can find your dream soon, i agree - its not worth it to settle, wait and something amazing will find its way to you. And hope your pups are staying out of trouble in their new spot, can you at least visit at all? or does that make them more stressed?
excited for mum2q, lisa, and melainey, and of course any one else i missed, to make those sperms meet that egg!! we're on a roll and i reckon there's a few more bfps to show!
mum2q- we're too impatient, when we can we'll find out the gender. i'm a planner, need to know these things.

afm- everything is ok. Dr was great. did u/s immediately and i freaked out at first, couldnt see anything, no heartbeat, but that was because bub was moving!! Heart rate was good, and arms and legs were noticeable flailing around, almost looks human. So we're all good for now, but he wants us back in 10 days to make sure, bc there is still a chance something could go wrong, but only slight. So i feel so so much better. Can't say the same for OH, who is relieved, but in a lot of facial pain, looks like she'll be better than expected though, not completely broken, and no black eyes, just swollen, cut, and maybe slightly crooked but not sure yet! Hard not to freak out, i know its normal, the spotting, but was so worried bc it didnt stop and was so bright red. And it takes/took so much for us to make a baby, we cant just go try again- just the two of us, so that adds to my stress and nerves! Thanks for the support, sorry for freaking out!!!

Phew! SO relieved honey xo
 
I dont anymore with ovulation now. Smiley faces had my around same time as FF did and I am always (well so I thought) 13 days. I am just so upset and being away sucks as I just want DH :( I guess we are going down the IUI or IVF route afterall :cry:

Well ladies uncross everything AF has shown up and temps have gone down again :cry:
Congrats number 2 looking forward to hearing the confirmation later today

Sorry girls I am just gutted right now I was so convinced. I guess my baby boy Ethan just doesn't want to come to me. I have never had 28 day cycle only at Xmas when I travelled to oz to get married. I am not stressed life is good not sure why.

was thinking the same, no idea how you found that!!! love it!

lucy- DR had me 9w4d today. not AF time, thats normally dur last week of the month or first, he couldnt find a real reason, but also said that thats a good thing.

will put my feet up, but also in the mood to bake, lemon cookies, but super easy ones. Just hanging out, watching Friends, baking. Oh is trying to sleep off her headache!

abby- hope you enjoy that crazy read, :haha:

I really did! thankyou so much for sharing!
We've actually considered the syringe method for the times when things are getting a bit too much pressure....like last cycle when i couldnt work out when i ovulated...day after day....thought it might take the pressure off if i had this as a back up plan....is that weird?

Yep, kinda. lol.

I mean relieved baby is ok, not that your OH has a bloody broken nose - poor chicken, hope she is ok xo
 
abby- its not weird, whatever works for you. Although you still have to know your timing, and have all the bits and pieces and do it all 'right', it can be just as stressful. But if it would makes things easier on DH, make him less stressed, maybe have a higher amt of sperm it would be worth talking about with him. Have you both talked about it? I know that its something you'd want to discuss, and how'd you feel knowing thats how you conceived versus the 'old fashioned hetero way', if it matters to you both in that way. I'm happy to talk to you more about it if you want, i've gotten very scientific about it all, through trial and error and hours and hours of research. The sperm doesnt live for that long outside the body, unless professionally frozen, which is why i'd say you would be still needing to know your OV timing. And other things depending he'd need to save his swimmers bc the journey is a little longer/harder this way, so again timing would be v important. Not trying to burst your bubble, just throwing things out that i've figured out. But again, if it will be a less stressful way of doing it, by all means go for it, i'm proof it works, but like i told the other ladies, no matter how you do it, you need to orgasm (if you do it AI, clitoral stimulated orgasm only)
 
lol amanda, i was being nice, its not totally weird. But that being said, i have not heard of any other hetero couples doing it. I just assumed why do it if you didnt have to, if we could have conceived another way we would have, if that makes sense, i mean neither one of us were comfortable with me having sex with a donor, but oh nm, hope i made sense, :rofl: But, Abby, if you have tried and tried and done everything else you can, you both are ok with it, then give it a go i guess! :)
 
thanks 2mums. we have talked about it, because any other time when there is no pressure DTD is great. We both want kids so bad, that the pressure has made it difficult. this last month i tried to forgo temp checking first thing and replace with BDing....then when my OPK was positive we went for gold, but then it kept staying positive and the surge didnt stop...so i got myself in a right state and that added pressure where it was not needed or appreciated. it was at this point that i did some research and we talked about it. Just as a fall back position. Im convinced the stress of "is now is the right time" made my eggy shy and impacted on the actually BDing....dont get me wrong, we got it done. but with a lot of effort and stress that was not what we were trying to achieve. (ive got myself all emotional about it now, cause i just cant go through that again this month). it might just be a psychological thing...if it doesnt work then we have a back up option, and therefore wont need the option,
any way it was very stressful....probably my fault, i build it up in my own mind and get a bit ....demanding...
 
i appreciate your advice though...its obviously not a comfortable topic
 
Kiwi - sorry AF turned up :( Really hope you get that BFP before you have to try IUI or IVF!

2mums - so glad the scan went well! You must have been so nervous! How amazing you got to see bubs moving too! I had at a scan at 9 weeks during my last pregnancy and the baby didn't move, I got told it was normal too but I always wondered if that was a bad sign. So it's great that your getting some good signs from bubs!!

About finding out the gender - I'm pretty sure we're going to find out. Max was a surprise, but we had such a hard time deciding on his name that the morning after he was born I just caved in on the name DF liked the most! So I want to be better prepared this time! Plus, Max has tons and tons of old baby clothes I want to know how to sort through them.

Abby - In regards to TTC my sense of what is "weird" has long gone haha. Weird for me now would be deciding on making a baby and just seeing what happened. lol
 
Glad you are ok 2 mums!!!Hope your OH is ok too :hugs:
Looking forward to reading your 3 page story:)
 
abby- if you end up going the syringe route, or just want some pointers just in case, I'm more than happy to share, here or PM. I was shocked at how stressful it was our first few times, i think thats why it didnt work out, each time i learned something. You def need to know when you Ov though, firstly.
 
Oh yeah the update: doctor called and sounded concerned, he said it is a weak positive at only 27. I told him my period isn't due till Thursday, he was relieved and thought I had meant last Thur. I googled it and the average at 3 +5 (which is what I'd be - 2 days off period being due) is 25, and it can range from 1 to 50. Well over 25 though I guess. Because under 25 is considered not pregnant. Make sense? Sound ok?
 
Ok, that's good I think! I'm not a beta expert..

So what happens now, keep poas? Or do you need to go back in a few days to see if doubling? Or is it just keep everything crossed?

I know I've got everything crossed for you darling! Xx

Sounds good! I don't really have any idea, but that sounds about right! :) hope it all goes well... You'll probably feel a bit stressed I'm guessing just not knowng, are you booked in for scan?
I booked mine today...26th sept so only 2 weeks to wait! Hoping to see a heartbeat etc - and I'm totally expecting them to put me back a week ( they dd that with both the girls! Also took another test just to confirm, relieved it was another BFP! I was a bit nervous the first test was dud! Lol
 
2woo- like you found when you looked it up, you are correct for the numbers, bc i obsessed with mine for a long time after i got my results back. but like :jo: asked, are you going back in a few days, or what did they say??

edit: lucy- how exciting!!!! cant wait! xx
 
I'll go back in a week or 6 days. Seems reasonable - most girls wouldn't even have a clue they were stuffed because it's still a couple of days till AF is due. So at that appointment I'll get a referral for a dating scan (though FF says I am due 24 May and I think they' be pretty right) and for the midwives etc. going to go public this time. We went private not covered by insurance last time and my OB and I did not click. Waste of money.
