Come on July Babies!

[applegirl]

JJF!! So glad you've joined us.

Honey - I don't know about this NKCs thing. I agree - it sounds promising, but they have tested me for like 20 things that also sounded promising and I came up normal and healthy on all of them. Which is good I guess. The NKCs test is done 7 days after ovulation. You need to be using condoms as it can cause miscarriage. They want me to wait until after I get a period before they do the test - so it won't be til next month.. and then 4-5 weeks to get the results! I will let you know what they say - for sure. SO - while we wait for all that OH and I have decided why not try. Here's hoping that next period never comes.

JJF - loving your 'calm' approach this month. Good work. I'm sure that EWCM is on its way. Hey - you know it does not always happen. I don't always get it - and have become preggers without it. I'm taking EPO this month to stimulate production. May the personal fertility experiments continue!

Ju Bubbs- I would go to the docs and insist on a referral to a fertility specialist. YOu've had three mcs in a row. You should not need to explain or argue more than that. Good luck hon!

And Ju Bubbs - those among us TTC#1 are smiling that you don't want a dec or jan babbs - happy to take any day of the year here!! xx

 

[Ju_bubbs]

Well.. I say I dont want a dec/jan baby now.. but If I'm not pregnant by then I dont expect I'll actually be able to put ttc on hold

Hopefully I'll be seeing my doc on thursday, it's too late to get an appointment for today, and tomorrow I have to wait in for a delivery of one of my daughters xmas pressies! Actually, I'm going to find a link for it and show you all coz its so cute, I'm not sure who wanted it more, my daughter or me!! They had one up and running in tesco last year and it was great! Its the same size as a real shetland pony, scared the hell out of me when I walked past it in tesco and it neighed and turned its head towards me! lol

Sorry to see you joining us Apple, but glad you are here at the same time (if that makes any sense).
Pardon the old ticker ladies it was from last cycle (and had AF come on time would be correct) I have now fixed it and not depending on my cycle this month could O anywhere from next Thurs to like the 4th of Nov. Just gonna keep checking signs, and attempting to temp (since I never wake up at normal hours or the same time each day) and hope we catch the silly egg sooner or later.
OMG that pony is so cute, and you sound like me. I swear I buy gifts for the girls that I like just as much as they do. Not looking forward to Xmas shopping since I have yet to even start and usually I am half done and finish the day after Thanksgiving. I love my girls, but last year shopping for two was bad enough, now I have to shop for three!!!
I have decided I refuse to test the next few cycles unless AF is late because that leaves more money for Xmas!

morning ladies! well - I have to say that this week has felt like a little honeymoon for OH and me. Back to the baby dancing - I'm feeling well again, and the stress of the 2WW, pregnancy muaha and miscarriage are over - we are having lots of laughs and cuddles. Just a quick note to send us all baby dust for this cycle

 

[MsLynn225]

Hello! I want a Juulyyy baby! ! I am getting very impatient over here!. . I got off the pill abotu 4 weeks ago, and i had sex with my fiance the day i got off the pill, and pretty much every other day till i got my period on the 19th of october. . does that mean i could get prego?. We have been trying for the past 2 years, on and off... It's brutal. .

 

[Ju_bubbs]

MsLynn, do you use opk's? some women take months to Ov after coming off the pill.. so it may be worth getting some if you dont already, I dunno what I'd do without them! good luck x

Pamela, really glad to hear you're so much better, me and OH are feeling loads better today aswell, we were waiting for it to happen this time so we didn't take it as badly!

KandK, I know what you mean.. my shopping is usually half done by now too! That pony is the first thing I've bought lol... been too busy spending all our mony on opks and hpts got 3 sacks to fill tho so better get a move on! I'm gunna try my best to wait till 13dpo each month now and only test once, coz thats right inbetween where ive been getting bfps and when they turn to bfns.. then rather than wasting money on tests everyday I'll just sit and wait for either the bleeding to start or the scan, which evr comes first lol!

 

[KandKsMama]

I hate having this silly addiction, and like you said more often than not you dont catch that you were pg before AF showed. I am so slacking this year Xmas wise so hopefully soon I will be able to pick some stuff up. The worst part about it is that Khloe turns 2 in Jan and Keira 1 in Feb so we also have a double birthday to plan.

 

[Ju_bubbs]

Snap! My daughter is 7 on the 16th of jan and my son is 5 on the 19th! lol Jan sales are handy for pressies tho!!! Anf hopefully by then we'll have baby stuff to worry about buying too

Apple what is EPO? Is it a nautral type clomid drug that stimulates egg production? I'm thinking that might be cool but for those of us that get prego (just not with sticky ones) I'm worried it really might product 3 or more eggs, haha. Thats probably cool for you having your first but I'm hoping for a #3, not a #3, #4, and #5, hahahahaha. Great to hear you can still try this month before going to condoms, yuk.

Sorry JJF - too many acronyms EPO = evening primrose oil. And no, it is not a natural clomid, but it does stimulate production of EWCM. I have not yet seen the effects (only day 2 of using it) but several girls on this forum have told me it works great. You should only use it up to Ov though, as it can induce uterine contractions. I think that some of the 3rd tri girls use it to encourage labour in the final days.

Hope that helps!! Getting late here, need to get to bed if I'm going to be awake for the BDing!! x

 

[JJF]

OH, stimulates EWCM, that sounds great, definitly needing that right now, especially to go along with the stomach bug I have today, poor me, ha. I've also heard of grapefruit juice but I'm not the type to be able to drink something I don't like. Do you drink the primrose oil? Have you used preseed? Seems like you did last month...

 

[KandKsMama]

Khloe is Jan 12th and I am the 19th! Keira is my little valentine love bug surprise. She was due for a repeat section on the 15th but started to come the end of Jan. and finally the day before my section my doctor was there and so was I so he admitted me and delivered a day early.
sjkirkham you sure can have a July baby.
Yes I knew a few people that tried EPO to induce labor and it did work that is why they say make sure you stop as soon as you O

 

[applegirl]

No - I've never used PreSeed - we get pregnant just fine without it : ) But I thought the EPO might be fun to try. Thanks for the info on the contractions K&K. Will be sure to stop at Ov - which I started testing for - today. Not yet! Let the BDing continue. I don't expect it til Monday at least - could be a lot later after the mc. x
Here's some good luck ladies!

 

[KandKsMama]

Started BDing last night and will continue at it daily. We got pg before no problem daily, but I also wasn't BFing then. I figure if it doesn't work this cycle then I can invest in more OPKs.

I am so mad right now though, my friend across the country said she shipped me a package last Tues. with about 20 HPTs, 2 outfits for my baby and 3 for older DD. She called the post and they told her it was delivered on Monday, but I didn't get it and no one else was home. I could so feed my POAS addiction with those, but the package is MIA.

 

[Ju_bubbs]

sjkirkham, lets hope you can!! I decided to try EPO on our first month Pamela.. only I'm useless at taking pills and forgot most the time (probably how I concieved my 3 kids on the pill heh heh) I'm just sticking to folic acid now since I can obviously get pregnant easily enough.. we've only been BDing once each month so far lmao.
It's a shame your package got lost KandK, I always send things recorded these days coz they loose so many things

I've just got through to the doctors surgury too, I have an appointment with the same doctor I went to see last week to say I was pregnant, she didn't emntion doing anything if it happened again, being my 3rd+ but a lot of girls in the loss support section seem to say its standard practise to get tests after you've lost 3, but you still have to push for it!

 

[applegirl]

JJF - forgot to say that the EPO is taken in pill fomat. Mine is like a gell capsule.

K&K - so sorry to hear about your package - how annoying! Can you call the post office?

Ju bubbs - good luck at the GPs. I agree that it is standard practice. My advice - I would not both telling her all the things you need to be tested for - just say that you have heard it is standard practice to go for investigations after 3 mcs in a row. Sorry you have to do this. Just stick the the simple point that all you want is a referral to a specialist. Good luck hon

 

[applegirl]

hey Ju bubbs - maybe you should go back on the pill x
