Disco Derail! - TTCAL/PAL Discussion and Support!

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!

Megg your baby thought made me cry in a good way if that makes sense I think you are a truely amazing women with such strength and your little one will be so lucky to have you as a mum I hope you get the life with your baby soon. I cant beleieve how quickly the time is going I'm keeping everything crossed that you are pregnant in 1 and half weeks.

I think that amanda making your blanket is so lovely and a positive sign that things for both of you will work out perfectly. :hugs:

Allie I hadnt realises your appointment was tomorrow as well I hope it goes well for you I will be thinking of you and we can hold each others hands to get through going to places with bad memories lets hope as Nato says they become somewere filled with happy ones for us both soon. :hugs:

Amy congratulations on selling your place wow a month then your be moving it must be exicting :happydance: to your first scan it will be here in no time enjoy being curled up in your pj's and watching girlie tv. :hugs:

Jenny I'm pleased AF is easeing up for you and have no idea about what you would need sorry but good luck with it all.
 
well paul may deposit some sperm at home for me too insert so i was wondering what things i would need to get the job done ?xx
 
sorry for butting in :haha: dont know why i was on the thread but jenny we got a kit from 'co-parent match' under the shop online section, and secretly thats what we used and what worked this time :winkwink: no one knows but thats what worked for us x
 
Good Morning ladies.

Still haven't tested and I don't think I am going to at this point. I think I was just getting my hopes up about this month, like I said I wasn't going to.

How are you doing Nato?

Megg, glad your meds went ok last night and hoping that the next week speeds right past you so you can move even closer to your BFP!

Hope the preggos in here are doing well and hope the rest of you are having a good day!
 
Hey, ladies! Glad the witch is on her way out, Jenny! :hugs:

Thanks for the kind words, lovelies. My baby thoughts almost always make me cry... in a good way. I can't believe I've done over 90 of them already. I went into it hoping that I'd only do about 28 before my BFP... and now I'm on 92 (today) and haven't even started working on it. That's going to be one HUGE book!

I'll get my hopes up for you, Dazed. I can't really have many expectations about my cycle yet... its only barely started... So, I'll focus on you until I need to switch back to my life! :hugs:
 
Hey mummy2angel, I love seeing posts from you happily pregnant as we had our miscarriages around the same time when I first joined BnB. :hugs:

About these kits and syringes...one thing I just thought of is don't you have to be really careful putting it up there without air in the syringe? I remember reading about possible embolisms when air goes up there. Just be careful. :hugs: I could be talking nonsense.

Amy, thanks for the lovely words! :hugs: Enjoy your pjs, girly tv and mud mask. It sounds like my type of night!!

Lucy, I will be thinking of you as well tomorrow and we can be holding hands in spirit. :hugs: I wasn't nervous yesterday but all of a sudden today I'm envisioning all kinds of bad results. I had a dream I had a sky high FSH level.

Megg and Hearty, that is going to be such a beautiful baby blanket. :hugs: I cannot believe how soon you will be pregnant, Megg!!
 
cor, look at the 'probable egg transfer' - thats getting close. You only have to wait 10 days for testing after IVf dont you? ahh, yes, i remember.... christmas eve bfp.

I will be testing christmas day. So thats a full on benny for me over everyone elses turkey

Im ok Dazed, bit grumpy. How about yourself. what are you now, approx 11 dpo?

ive been working out my probabilities, and they arent good for December with at best, a bd 3 days before ov, assuming i ov on CD13. I checked on FF and all the charts with pregnancy with that BD pattern look to me like they have more questionnable ov days cos most of them dont use opks or they have dotted lines.

have been thinking about phoning a sperm bank to get some on ice for home insemination.

I thought about the air bubbles too allie, most of the kits tell you to tap the side of the syringe
 
well im already out for the rest of 2010. Husband's work couldn't get him a wednesday flight, so he's now going on Monday again.

i'm so pissed off.
 
FFS Nato!!!!

Fuckity, fuck fuck fuck.

Can't you get his sperm chilled for at home insemination then?
 
Jenny (and Nato), this is the website I referred to when I decided to try in home insemination. I did not use a needle. I used a needless syringe. And yes, you do need to tap the air bubbles out.

Or, you can just put the sperm in a soft cup and insert the soft cup. Instructions for both methods are at https://www.fertilityplus.org/faq/homeinsem.html

Also, I bought my needless syringes off of Amazon.com. I also use Preseed before inserting the sperm.

I use this method on days when Tim isn't up to the job (like Thanksgiving). I don't think the success rate is as high as old fashioned BD'ing, but I'd rather have some chance than no chance at all.
 
Nato, that really sucks! I hope that you do get your BFP already so you aren't out for the rest of the year! :(
 
Thanks girls

Hearty, i have been looking up home chilling, but its so confusing, i was thinking about getting a kit but seems it would only last 1 night for home chilling, is that right? I cant find any sets in the uk, will have a look again now, cos im distracted by clinic freezing, but the prices are unbelievable.
 
that was the site i was looking at hearty! the home overnight chilling set wouldnt get here by saturday from america i dont think

Mel, im on CD2, defo not pregnant right now. bitch crap wank fuck. etc.
 
Honestly I know nothing about the home chill. I was thinking more along the lines of a clinic. How much are they? They should sell home chill machines. I bet a lot of women would buy them. Surely many women who are ttc have husbands who travel during ov. I'll do some googling for you and see what I come up with.
 
thanks yogi. doesnt it. even the thought of a drunken christmas is no fun
 
thanks hearty, im not sure what would be needed, but seems we would need a consultation, sperm testing, test freezes, HIV / Hep B etc testing, all sorts. seems to be about £1000 from what i can work out

Im thinking a sperm bank would be better than a fertility clinic for my purposes.
