lap and dye this Friday (19th)

[HearMyPrayers]

Yes! I just got in from my follow up. So I had endo pretty much on everything in that area, it was around my (SORRY TMI) rectum - which apparently was like pulling my uterus, and it was around both ovaries - he removed everything, and we are no longer "unexplained" he said my endo is definitely the reason I miscarry so early, and why I have had difficulties getting pregnant. He wants us to try naturally until January, and then if I don't get pregnant on my own by then - we will go in for some fertility meds. It sucks for sure, but I am SO happy to finally have a reason! To know that it is not in my head, it is not me not "relaxing" that is causing me to miscarry - I feel validated. I am on CD 36 and still no AF - I am really hoping this is my BFP month. I will take a test in a few days if AF doesn't show. I have no PG symptoms which is making me think I probably didn't O this month. So I am trying not to get my hopes up.

How is everyone else doing/feeling?

Thats amazing you must feel like a weight of 1000 lbs has been lifted! good for you! Being 'unexpained' is so hard because there is a reason they just dont know what! Oh I really hope this is your month! I'm on CD 50 still no AF and took a HPT yesterday BFN so no way I'm pregnant just looks like my cycles are all messed up again But I'm glad you got such great news!

Curlygurl, what great news. It must be such a relief to have an explanation finally. HearMyPrayers, I'm sorry to hear no BFP but no AF either for you yet. Fingers crossed everything sorts itself out for you really soon.

We got back on the BD wagon on the weekend, and think I'm O'ing today or tomorrow, so we'll see how things go. Seeing as the doc didn't actually do anything, I'm not holding my breath, but we'll see. Hopefully the change of work and lowering of the stress levels might have an impact

Slightly weirdly, today it feels like some of the carbon dioxide had built up again under my rib cage. I could have sworn this should have been all out of my system by now, but who knows. Oh well...

I am on CD 40 today and still no AF! I took a HPT on Tuesday and it was BFN. I haven't really had any of the normal AF symptoms I usually get. Until today boobs are a little sore and really heavy - usually they are just super painful. Tiny bit of spotting. I am just ready to move forward...How is everyone else?

Hey Curlygurl, I hope things crack on and AF comes along so you can move onto the next cycle. My stitches came out during the week, so feeling pretty much back to normal. I decided to try some alternative therapy, and have had my first reflexology session today with a lady who specialises in reflexology for conception. To be honest, even if it doesn't make much difference from a medical point of view, it was really lovely and relaxing and will help me to relax if nothing else! Strangely, my Mum's friends have told her they'll be doing some long distance reiki on me - not sure if I believe that works, or that it can possibly be done between Australia and England, but who knows!

That sounds very relaxing! I have been doing accupuncture for a few months now, and I agree medically it may not work - but it definitely is relaxing. Although I really think the accupuncture was helping to get my cycles closer to 28 days...and now this day 41! LOL. I don't really think i am pregnant, and I don't want to hold out hope only to be crushed...so I feel like come on already AF!

About the long distance reiki- I know someone who practices reiki and she has said that reiki can work long distance - so who knows! If anything it is just some more good positive vibes going your way.

 

[HearMyPrayers]

Hey ladies! I'm STILL WAITING for AF! I'm on CD56 today....i have the worst sore BB's ever to the point that even walking hurts lol! I feel like AF is coming ANY MINUTE but nothing.....the last time I peed on a stick was 11/12/2012 and it was negative but I haven't again since. I dont know whats going on my bb's have been sore since about 11/14/2012. Its been 4 weeks since my lap/dye so looks like I completely skipped a period, would I have still ovulated though? I'm sure there is like .000001% change I'm pregnant lol just not sure what is going on with my body!

 

[laustiredttc]

Hey ladies sorry been mia dh had the laptop. Curlygurl, hearmyprayers i truly hope that the stays away and you both get your very soon

Wish, i have tried reflexology and whilst i agree it didnt really improve anything it was very relaxing!

well ladies i am officially 1dpo today. dtd sat and sun. Not much but hoping its enough? fx

 

[HearMyPrayers]

Hey laustiredttc I hope this is your month!! I think you covered your basis pretty well!! now you in the 2WW!!! exciting!!

So exciting! I think I"m going to try another dollar store cheapie today and see what it says.....I'm doubful I'm sure the bit** will show her face in due time!! I just dont know why my cycles are all screwy not!!

 

[laustiredttc]

oh i do hope its pos hun, i'm keeping my fx and everything else crossed really tight for you

 

[curlygurl]

AF came today! Was a little sad - but happy that its finally here, and I can get cracking for this next cycle.

HearMyPrayers - take a test - this sounds promising...you Bd'd around the right time right? Anyway I hope this is it for you!!

lau - how exciting! hope this is your month keep us posted on your symptoms!

 

[HearMyPrayers]

And almost instantly I started getting cramps....my boobs are killer sore so I know when AF comes its gonna be a baaaad one!

I just want to have all that hope I had again like when I first came out of surgery and I felt like this was so going to happen! I HATE that this has to be so hard for all of us! I wish I had a magic wand I could wave over all of us and make this all go away and we all have the babies we deserve!

Ok back to the drawing board!

Thinking next cycle depending on what the FS suggests on Monday, I'm going to try temping.... I dunno I give up!

 

[laustiredttc]

oh ladies i'm so so sorry to hear that. But like you say at least its a clean slate and you guys can start again.

2dpo and i had a streak of something in panties (sorry tmi) i know its wayyyyy too early for implan but wth?

Perhaps hormones from o'ing are creating some discharge?was it clear or white?

 

[wishinforbub]

oh, hearmy and curlygurl, I'm sorry to hear that AF came along, but at least she arrived and you can move onto the next cycle right? I got fingers/toes/legs/eyes/everything crossed for you both this is the month!

Lau, sounds like you and I are pretty close in terms of cycles. I o'd last week about Monday or Tuesday, so we BD'ed Sat, Sun, Tues, Thurs and Sun again just to give it our best shot! I'm probably going to to into TMI here, and I do apologise, but I tried something a little different this time. I don't Org..m during sex, and only slightly if I use a toy and read something. but DH read that Org..ming somehow helps direct the little spermies up the tube the egg is coming from, so after BDing, I tried my toy. Who knows....I'm pretty sure I'm over-imagining things now, but my BBs are sore walking down stairs, I'm super irritable and having been getting heartburn which is really strange for me. Stupid 2WW!

Lots of baby dust for us all girlies - lots and lots and lots!!

PS - I'm not sure if I'm allowed to send links to things through, but this brightened my mood today when I was really cranky..hope it makes you all smile too

[curlygurl]

Ugh sorry HearMyPrayers! Ugh this sucks - and I gotta say this is the worst AF I have had since my chemical...ugh. The cramping finally subsided. But how exciting we are both on the same cycle now!

Lau - hey you never know. A few times I did have spotting from ovulation, so maybe it is just from that.

I think I am going to temp this month also, and use OPKs. I am tired of waiting. LOL! I am so excited, becuase I feel like hopefully now I really have a chance! And we all do! I think after you have these types of surgeries you are more "fertile". Let's hope we will all have good news for the holidays!!!

 

[laustiredttc]

Hey wish symps sound good huni. keeping fx for ya

curlygurl its great that you feel pos, i think your right lets keep the good vibes going

Hear, it was lotiony with a bit of pink mixed in with it. Today there is the tenniest amount. I dont i guess it might be th hormones? Time will tell i guess

 

[HearMyPrayers]

Hey ladies still spotting but today its picked up a bit and cramps are starting to hit me HARD! so AF is here within hours I'm sure....Curly we are almost on the same cycle which is cool!

Lau-your symptoms sound very promising I'm praying for you please please keep us posted! I can't wait to see us all get those BFP's!

 

[laustiredttc]

ah bless, thanks hears and defo will do.

thats sucky bout the cramps. Before the op i used to have THE worst period pains so i know how you feel hun. I hope they pass soon and then you can get back into the drivers seat again

 

[wishinforbub]

Hey hear, how are the cramps going? I hope things have settled down and AF has started properly so that you can get through it again and start trying! Curly, how are you doing?

Lau, how are your symptoms? Mine are on and off - my BBs are sore one minute, then normal again the next. Still irritable, but that could be because after crowing to DH about how robust my immune system was on Thursday, I succumbed to a sore throat and cold that very night!

Fingers crossed for us all girls - I do so hope this is the month for us x

 

[laustiredttc]

symps kind of gone now. The spotting stopped, there is no cm whatsoever but a few tiny niggles still near ovaries. Just really wishing it is this month. Feeling quite tired with it all right now
