Hia everyone!!! glad to see everyones doing well, Kat i can't believe it!!! she's coming out soon!!! woo hoo!!

welcome back to ttc cath!! how did you end up on clomid? hows it been? hope it works out for you! xx

thanks for your wishes, am VERY excited now! AF started 2/7 ago which was the trigger to call, so its all set in motion. got my scratch booked for 2/1/13, just ordered my culture medium and drugs, which was a big fat grand out of the bank!!! got my counselling appt on sat so its all go!! PRAYING it works first time, i Know they say it prob won't but i really don't think mentally I am strong enough to keep trying, plus money won't last forever... but am trying to stay positive!!

is everyone excited for christmas? I'm sort of dreading it after last year, but also sort of excited cos I do love christmas! xxx

 

[klemoncake]

just seen your pic cath..are they all opk?

 

[cathgibbs]

Awww Klemon its understandable your dreading xmas hun But just think of all the exciting things that are gonna happen after xmas and how much you have to look forward too! i know its no consolation but it should give you some hope after everything you have gone through Woohooooo not long now hun!!! Everything you are doing will be worth it when you have your little bundle of joy in your arms hunny

Iv got a really good feeling about this month, im having certain symptoms that im not looking for...their so strong that they are alerting me if that makes sense?? Shooting pains all day yesterday, heartburn since monday and a few niggles today.....yep hun their all OPKs apart from the top one thats a HPT It was of course neg lol xxx

 

[klemoncake]

oh right yeah i thought it was...still really early though isn't it so don't worry too much about that.

did they do scans and things on the clomid to see how many follies you had?

 

[mannymoo]

Lemon this Christmas is going to be completely different to last year. And I have such a good feeling about your first round being successful. That BFP is going to be staring you in the face before you know it. Did you decide how many to put back?

Cath although the OPKS have second lines, I wouldn't say any of them are quite positive. The one you did last week - was that line darker than these? I always get a second line (of varying strength) throughout my cycle but my positive OPKs are very definitely as dark as or darker than the control line. I would stick with your original ovulation day and write these ones off to hormones. Maybe it is from the clomid?

Kat because baby can't arrive between 24th and New Year, she will very obviously come between 24th and New Year!! I'm going to be out of signal for those dates too so I'm also hoping it won't be then otherwise I'll miss all the excitement too!

Kelly - happy moving! Wishing you many happy years in your new home, new town, new state. Bet its freezing where you are?

xx

 

[klemoncake]

its freezing here too!!! although typically raining and not snowing..i want the puppy to see snow!!

Cath, you could always do a digi ov test to be sure, they are the most accurate i have found.

 

[Kelly9]

They test as standard for GD but they would test me anyway since I had it before.

We'll be living where we're going for 2 years then onto the next spot It is quiet cold. I'll be in Yellowknife tomorrow!

Cath I'm thinking positively for you too this cycle!

Klemon same with you! I think the IVF will work!

Manny, get a good shot of baby so we can guess, silly Dh, maybe he'll change his mind when he's in there with you?

Oh and Kat, another few days down! We're going to have a baby in this thread soon

 

[mannymoo]

Hi ladies - how is everyone?
Kat - 22 days to go! EEEEkkkkk!
Cath - any news from you? I see you are 13dpo now.
Lemon - how is the IVF going? When are they going to do the extraction?
Kelly - hope the move is going well?

FMS - had another scan today and everything still looking good. I never thought I would ever get this far so I am so happy! Baby was looking well and even flexed an arm for us which Dad was very proud of! Here are a couple of pics. Any gender guesses? Not that you can see much from these pics...
