[jenny25]

I'm coming to york too we havent had any snow picture is gorgeous sugar.

Jaymes I think flying will always be an amazing experience and something I love but dont think I could ever turn it into a hobby unless I won the lottery maybe my other love is photography I am thinking about trying to sell some of my photos.

I will look out for that advert nato and give it what for steve might think I've finally lost the plot or maybe not. Our appointment wed is at the hospital but I have no idea if we're seeing a fs or just having blood taken then seeing someone with the results. I'm starting to feel nervous about it part of it is having to go to the same place we had all our scans just driving past the place makes my stomach flip I hate it as we've never left there with good news well we left once with good news but it turned into bad news for us.

 

[NatoPMT]

I hear you Luce, that must take you right back there. One day it will be a place for happy memories as well - i hope you get some answers from them.

 

[Dazed]

dont, i will respond to the challenge and end up making myself a worse addict. I will be testing 13 days before ov now. Not 13dpo, 13dbo

 

[Dazed]

Well hearty, look what you have started.

Megg, I forgot to tell you, I have had yorkshire pudding success. I made sunday lunch yesterday for some friends, and my friend Ben showed me how to do it. For the recipe, just make sure you have equal parts of egg, milk and flour. So however much volume of egg you have, add the same volume of flour and then of milk. Do it in a bigger dish, and the oil (not olive oil or butter as it doesnt get hot enough - i used sunflower but most use beef fat) must cover the whole of the dish and a bit more, then instead of putting the dish in the oven, put it on the stove and heat from the gas ring until it smokes. When you pour the batter in, it will start cooking and fluffing up immediately. Then put it straight in the oven and dont open the oven door. I did though.

In total, ive been trying for 13 months now sugar - thats the number i told my dr. Im going to get a private consultation alongside my nhs tests and referrals (assuming i get referred) - i was worried the private dr would make me get all the bloods done again at £90 a pop. The SA is £200 and we've already had that done. Will they all make me pay for the tests again or can i use the NHS results do you know?

Good advice on the yorkshire pudding! Congrats on the success! I will try it your way next time!

Hey girls just wanted to pop in n give out some hugs

So happy about last nights x factor results! About bloody time those 2 got threw out I love a good double whammy eviction I do!!

As for flying Luce ur such a dare devil there us no way hosay I'd pilot a tin with wings . I am obsessed with watching Air Crash Investigations I've watched em all haha so I really dint help myself, I have to go to the docs for beta blockers to calm me down when we go on holidays abroad I'm that bad!! God bless me when I have to tell my children that everythings ok on a plane because as it stands I cry for the first & last hour in the air haha xxx

meggles how are you getting on babe? All good I hope?

Hope everyone else is doing great xxx

lots of lov hugs n kisses xxx caz xxx

I'm fine... Nothing worth complaining about, although I can usually find something anyway! LOL How are you?

Hola chickas...

Nato sorry the bitch got ya...Have you ever considered IVF abroad? My doc was telling me that alot of women from UK come to Greece for IVF as the private clinics have high sucess rates and are cheaper. If you (or anyone else) wants i can look into it. Two of Alex's friends are now pregnant after first IVF, ages 39 and 41.

Hearty thanks for always thinking of me babes! Im not doing so great but im trying. It doesnt help that i got into a massive argument with the big boss (owner) of the company i work for today. He is such an ass... I wont even go into it, it will just piss you all off.

Sorry you're having a rough time still. I wish I could give you a big hug! Feel free to rant about your boss, even if it pisses us off.

Hey all, thanks for all the welcome backs! You all are great!

We did go to the Harry Potter Theme park, it was pretty cool, and the main reason we went there. It was incredibly crowded and the lines were very very long, but it was really cool!

That sounds REALLY cool!

Hi Girls!!
Wow, Lucy, that's so cool that you can fly! Sorry you maybe already said this, but are you taking lessons now or do you already have your license?
OMG the spilled softcup story is hilarious Hearty! So I am a little confused though...did Tim just wake up randomly at 4 am and decide he would give you this present?
Sorry about the ho bag Nato. I'm glad you are looking into some other options now, but seriously I just want to punch her in the face sometimes.
Yay for 12 weeks Sassy and for the third trimester Mel! So exciting!

We had our apartment showing tonight so hopefully we will get some offers tomorrow. I am totally excited to see what happens. I can't stop crying on and off all day today though because the hubby is leaving tomorrow to drive down to Oslo to start his new job on Wednesday. He'll be back in a few weeks and then again for Christmas. Once the new year starts and he gets more settled in his job he will be coming home everything Thursday night (or Friday) for the weekend. I am so happy that he finally has a good job but living apart more than 50% of the time is going to take some adjustment.
I am sad that he's going to be gone so much during this pregnancy and probably the first couple of years afterwards, but at the moment I am more worried that something will happen with this one and then he won't be around that much for us to even try again. I am trying to optimistic, but right now I'm just sad

I just packed him a giant care package for the drive and for his new little apartment.
Now I really need a dog to keep me company!

On the plus side, I can spend more time on BnB in the evenings without judgement

Well, I like that bit about spending more time with us!

 

[Megg33k]

AFM... Today kind of sucked in a not baby-related way. It rained all day... which meant I was running errands and getting drenched. My bank had a "technical difficulty" that rendered my debit card useless whilst I was in the throws of shopping! Our Christmas lights were supposed to go up outside tonight... but again with the rain! I wanted to call in an order for taco pizza for dinner, and no one would answer the damn phone.

But, I'm fine... The shot this morning was fine. I'm nervous about tonight's, because its more complicated. But, I'm sure it'll be okay once I've done it once... I hope! FX'd! No complaints that are worth whinging about... but I'll always find a reason!

 

[Allie84]

Good luck Jenny! Let us know if he complies and it works.

Sugar, the York snow is beautiful. We have another storm here in the works right now. I keep wishing for a snow day but they're hearty folk up here and tend to tough it out.

Nato, it sounds like the two day window you've gotten will put you in your fertile time! Didn't you ov a bit earlier last cycle as well? Maybe you'll ov a few days sooner this time (but not too soon...)

Thanks for sharing the Harry Potter love child story. Is it wrong of me to kind of wish I had one of their love children? I have a creepy crush on all of them, except Daniel Radcliffe.

Amy, that arrangement does sound like it will take some adjusting but as others have pointed out at least you don't have to time BDing. The way it panned out kind of affirms that it was all meant to me. That's awesome about the study you're on! It will bring a lot peace of mind, I'm sure.

Alllie, I know you had bad news a while ago too. Have you made any decisions about what to do next hun?

Well, I was bummed to hear I have PCOS but as the main prob with that is ovulating, and I ovulated at a normal time with the soy, I am not as worried as I was at first. I guess I'm more worried about my progesterone, but I have another gyno appt on Weds. I'll do Metformin, Clomid if prescribed and do what I have to do to get healthy but I am going to make a conscious effort not to worry about infertility or think about any next steps until I've been trying a year-which will be April.

Lucy, it looks like we both have to go back to hospitals associated with our miscarriages on Wednesday. Good luck with your appointment. I think I'll be getting all of my blood results back and getting an ulstrasound.

 

[Allie84]

Why is tonight's more complicated, Megg? Sorry about the rain!

 

[Megg33k]

Why is tonight's more complicated, Megg? Sorry about the rain!

It turned out okay... but it was more complicated because it wasn't pre-mixed. I had to pull out the right amount of sterile water, dissolve the medication in it, pull out half the meds, etc. Plus, its a needless re-hydration process that uses a Q-cap!

These:

It did manage to bleed a little bit... and stung when I pushed the meds in. But, it wasn't bad... just a little less comfortable than the others. Oh well!

 

[Megg33k]

Does this look okay, Hearty?

 

[heart tree]

Beautiful Megg! I'm super excited. Are you loving them? You should love them. By the way, you are such a star for going through all you are for this babe. I can't believe all the shots you are doing. You are going to have your medical degree after this.

 

[Megg33k]

Beautiful Megg! I'm super excited. Are you loving them? You should love them. By the way, you are such a star for going through all you are for this babe. I can't believe all the shots you are doing. You are going to have your medical degree after this.

Yes, I love, love, love them! As soon as I saw it, I stopped looking! I just knew in my heart it was the right fabric!

Thank you! The shots... They get easier and harder every time. I know that doesn't make sense... but the mental part seems to get harder while the physical part has become 2nd nature to me. My "baby thought" for today sums it up really well, I think. (Baby Thought #91: This journey seems to get a little more complicated each day. But, it makes me realize even more that I'd do anything to get the life I see in my dreams... the life where I rock you to sleep every night and give you all the love I have in my heart just waiting on you!)

I'm just trying to get through it and checking off each day as it comes! Putting up a shocking pic! I was blown away when I actually went through and did the checking off.

Also had a small gasp at this earlier... copied/pasted from my journal!

By the way... EEK! I could be pregnant in 1.5 weeks! It makes me and at the same time!

[heart tree]

Absolutly amazing. I can't believe how far you've come. Oh I hope you are knocked up in 1.5 weeks!!!

Send me that fabric soon. I can get started this weekend. I really can't wait!

No worries! I'm sending it tomorrow!

 

[heart tree]

Awesome! This is going to be so fun. It wills definitely help me get through the tww!

 

[Megg33k]

Oh good! I'm glad I can "help" you by letting you make something beautiful for me and my future baby! It feels odd to think this is somehow helping you! I consider it a HUGE favor. I might have made you a bit of a "thank you" gift to send with it. I can't say what it is though!

 

[pregoinnorge]

Wow, Megg, you're so hardcore with all of your needles and drugs! What a champ! I pass out at the sight of needles. And what awesome quilt material. I love that amanda will make you this!
Hi Allie! I hope you can get some more info at your appointment. I somehow missed that you have PCOS? Was that confirmed with an ultrasound? I think your idea to relax until april might be a good idea. It seems doctors don't even really start helping until then anyway so it makes sense for you to just wait it out. Of course, I have everything crossed that you won't have to deal with it in April With your ovulation more in control now it must really help!
Thanks everyone for the nice words. I feel better about things today so I am going to try to just stay positive. We packed up his car last night with all sorts of random stuff for his little apartment. Basically I gave him all the junk that I don't want around our new apartment so that I can go shopping
Our apartment sold this morning so that's a huge relief. Now I have one entire month to pack up the place, so that should be do-able.
Kristian will be home again in 10 days. And I have my first real ultrasound in only 9 days. I am starting my first night alone with a marathon of girly tv shows and flannel pajamas. There may even be a mud-mask involved. Watch out!

 

[jenny25]

well af has now turned too the smallest amount of spotting yay finished earlier than usual so i guess everything practically came out on sunday lol i spoke to paul about donating stuff in a pot for me too use and he is gonna think about it he said he didnt imagine making a baby this way i said paul i didnt either but if we get to go through fertility treatment we would have do it i said loads of people do this so i have left him with it so if i decide to do it that way what would i need to get? i have preeseed at home what type of syringe do i need and do i need anything else like thing that opens up down below if you get a smear done ? x
