Hi ladies.

Oh gawsh...storms all round...
Becky how are you holding up in this terrible storm...it's wayyyy worse than the hurricane we were told to expect last month isn't it...I'm scard to go out - but I have to.gah!
You keep safe ok

Meg barbs...wow ice storm...I hope you are both ok...

Barbs...I'm a little worried...are you ok...has your power gone out too?...I hope you are ok.

So it's test day tmr meg...
How are you feeling about this cycle?...any symptoms?....I am praying for your bfp tmr.

Right ladies...I'm having a very confusing time of things...my temps have let me down this month...I'm worried that I even o'd at all...
My opk went positive VERY quickly and then faded out VERY quickly...my temps went up but not nowhere near the usual temp rate I usually have...now ff is putting me at 3dpo.-which I'm not!....I'd say more a round 1/2 dpo....

We only bd...twice before positive opk...on possy opk and day after...I hope that's enough coverage.
But hay like they say..."it only takes the once". - if only this were true eh.lol
Anyways...so with my calculations...I am testing on New Year's Eve...that makes me 11dpo according to ff...
I'm kinda glad that it hasn't worked out for my b-day for testing day what with the mc last January.
But still New Year's Eve is when it all started to happen.
Last night I laid and tried to convince myself...I AM PREGNANT!....I tried to connect with "that" feeling......
Positive all the way from here on in...altho I am dreading my "11dpo" melt down lol...

Gawsh ladies...it's Xmas Eve TOMORROW!....it's here already!...
Where oh where has this whole year gone?.....crazy.
We will all be bumpalishus next year...we will be complaining of swollen ankles...sore lady bits and harping on about our favourite cravings teehee...

So I went on a cheese shopping mission yesterday lol....and I found some royal Canadian mature cheddar...you KNOW I bought me some of that.so I have a little piece of your land right here with me this Xmas...and oh boy it's a stinky one lol...I will love slicing it up onto my crackers...lol...
My fridge is jammed full of cheese this Xmas..Peter opend the fridge last night and shouted out to me,..."facking hell nat!....enough cheese?" Bahahahahahahaha...

Anyways I hope to be back on again later..li hope you all stay safe in this awfull weather we are having...take care me beauty's...

Hi Nat!

I am alive haha... we didnt have power for over 24 hours and is SUCKED. COuldnt cook or shower... thank goodness for gas fireplaces..... we were warm enough I suppose.

It could have been 3-4 days they said so I guess we got lucky...

Poor DH is really suffering with his ear..but we went to walk in clinic yesterday and got him Amoxicillin.. hopefully it kicks in very soon to give him some relief.. poor guy.

Yes! Tomorrow is test day, I am sorry to say I am not optimistic and fully expect a BFN. I dont know why but I feel it in my gut... hey, if I am wrong, thats great, BUt I dont expect to be. URGH! lol WE will see I guess. I think my reason for hesitation comes from the fact that I got my positive several days earlier than usual, and now I dont trust that I O'd, or how many DPO I am, so i feel like its all lost . I know that might sound ridiculous but its true! lol So if its BFN tomorrow I will take one more on Xmas day and if BFN again I will stop my progesterone because I am sure I can trust the FRER on 11 and 12 DPO...

How is everyone? Barb I dont think you guys lost power in TO, but maybe I am wrong... it was BAD here... power lines down and trees down everywhere.. scary stuff. My street is a MESS. I put all my food outside yesterday so now I need to bring it all back in... I am halfway done but had to go to work lol.. last day before official holidays for awhile... Ugh I need it!!

Nat - when is the MRI happening? Im sorry I think I missed your post... I hear you on the OPK confusion but sometimes we only see a short surge! Thats why we need to test twice a day, because we can so easily miss that possy! If you got a possy, then that was it, and it sounds like you have good coverage Welcome to the 2ww! It should fly by with xmas busy-ness PS love the note about the smelly canadian cheese... I love cheese!! But I am sooo picky about which ones lol...

Had my preggy friend and her DH for dinner on Sat night.. she is 31 weeks can you believe it? hard to believe I was almost there myself... wowzers! Shes having a rough time with discomfort, sickness, etc, i feel for her...

How is everyone else?

xo

 

[natjenson]

Good luck love.

[Petzy]

I'm still sitting on the bathroom floor........too afraid to even move.

Thank god I bought two so I can do progression tomorrow.

I'm in shock. So scared at the same time

 

[Petzy]

It darkened a little. It was after a 3 hour hold caused had to pee in the night lol

Thank god stores are open today so I can buy more lol

 

[natjenson]

Holly cowzers!......MEG ,!!!......yippeee...

OMG,...meg I sooo happy for you ....

Now- don't be affraid Hun...this is it!...third time lucky ok!..
I get why you will be affraid I would be too...you got this Hun.

Facking hell I am dancing around here lol...Yaye

Loves ya meg...you da girl! Lol

Natalie xoxoxo

 

[natjenson]

Awe meg! I knew it lol..

When. You say "I'm not optimistic" it's seems to be the trick hehe...
I'm over the moon here....so is it a digi in hubby's stocking in the morning then.....

Natalie xxx

 

[Petzy]

Haha no. I told him and he was like ahhh this emotional roller coaster begins again lol. Yup! Fack......

Oh Nat. What do I do now lol

 

[natjenson]

Haha no. I told him and he was like ahhh this emotional roller coaster begins again lol. Yup! Fack......

Oh Nat. What do I do now lol

well my guess is you are scared...you probably don't know what feeling to let take over you...excited nervous...

TOTALLY. Normall and understandable Hun ok.given what you have been through latley I would be exactly the same...I'd still be affraid even tho my mc was a year ago (almost) now.
Honestly meg...I think you should just go about about Xmas the way you intended...minus a few too many lol...have some- sure.
I would phone through to your clinic...or is there an email you can send a msg to one of the fs...
I get they are probably closed for the holidays...I think I saw on 6dpo that it's closed till the 2nd right...well Hun see what the next few tests say and go from there...
But third time lucky - for sure here ...

Hubby is most likely happy but affraid too yeah...

Keep taking your progesterone and take things a tad easy on your self...and try not to beat yourself up with expecting the worst.

Gawsh meg I bet you were shaking when you saw that second line.

If it was me right now...I would sooo have a nice small glass of wine and get my feet up on the sofa and chill...let the feeling sink in a little.
And keep telling myself...this is going to be ok is time...

I'm here to talk love if you need to ok.

Love you Nat that was a great message. Thank you. I going to try to relax and be good to myself. I'm not really worried about DH. You are right it's just fear and he will be just fine if this progresses well lol

Going to fake a migraine I think. My mom knows I've been having bad ones lately so I could just say that maybe ahhh

Hey Nat. Ok so remember I got my pos OPK early this month on CD11 (usually 14/15). We BD on cd's 4,5,6,7,8,11,12,13,14,19,22. So there was a LOT of bding leading up to and after the OPK.

I sooooo hope you can join me love! And Barb and the other fab ladies on here !

 

[Petzy]

So I was counting my progesterone, and I realized that I didn't have enough to last me until I get to go to the clinic in January! So I called the pharmacy that I know is associated with my clinic, I told them look I just found out that I'm pregnant and I don't have enough pills! So she said that they normally need the nurses to sign off but that she would do it for me today under the circumstances. So I went and picked that up just now! And I feel better about that. Without anyone telling me to stop I'm going to keep taking them until I see them on Jan 2nd hopefully...

I also want to pick up more FRER but they only had one package left of two so I got that. I only have three in total now. May get more on the 27th.

 

[nimbec]

OMG meg!! CONGRATS!!!!! that has literally made my day whaaaa hoooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!

I too totally understand the fear but hopefully this time things will be different and the progesterone will do its thing for you - I agree with the other ladies to take it easy and try even tho its utterly impossible not too over think things/worry tooooooo much!! day by day each day is one more to 9 months hun. I'm so so happy for you!!!!!!!!!!!

Nat i know what you mean the storms have been horrific around here to0, we have literally had to battern down the hatches its terrible, i've not been on as we had no power either yesterday but i'm sure its far worse for you ladies abroad!! we are just not geared up for it over here! Barbs so glad you have power back ugh its really horrid without it and i'm pleased you are ok!

As for me 100% no 0 this month my opk's have faded right out now so all i can hope is that AF is delayed and does not appear on my wedding day. Then clomid starts in January - kick start the old ovaries again lazy buggars!!

I just want to wish everyone a HAPPY CHRISTMAS for tomorrow as i'm going to be very busy and probably unable to get on line. I'll be thinking of you all! oh and meg i'm dying too see these progression tests!

 

[nimbec]

Nat i'm so sorry i don't know what happened to the bit i typed to you! egarding the bding and your temps hopefully you have it covered - as they usually say it only takes once - yeh right! one bloody lucky once haha however the month i got preggy with harrison we hadn't bd much at all so i'm sooooooo hopeful that you times it perfectally!!! I think positive thinking is the way forward and you did bd at the right time. ((hugs)) xx

 

[Petzy]

Thanks so much Becky. My fingers and toes are crossed lol! I will post an Xmas progression tomorrow hehe xo

 

[barbikins]

Hey girls!! I emailed you. Had to log on. We were without power for two days and today was busy. Finally at down to a Christmas movie!

Wow Meg, awesome news!!!! Congrats Hun.
I am sure you are feeling all sorts. Fear, excitement.
I'm so happy for you!!!! I hope I can join you next month!!!

5 more day on the pill and my IvF begins. Ahhhhhh!!!

Great Xmas news Meg. Wow. Are you going for bloods???

 

[barbikins]

Natalie how many dpi are you? When do you test?

 

[Petzy]

Hi Barb!! So glad you are back. We were powerless too it sucked !!! I was worried about you!

Yes i have mixed emotions. Just playing it "cool" for now lol. Not giving it much attention yet. Going to take it slow lol. I am eager to tear again today. It's 530am so I'll probably test around 7 or so. And I will post it for you !

I can't go for bloods this is the one time of year my clinic is closed. Shut down for 10 days!! They open on January 2nd so I will have to squeeze myself in early that morning. I don't see the point in going to a walk in? Maybe I should ? I don't know. They won't be same day results I am sure and wouldn't I have to go twice ? What would you do Barb? A bit stressed that I can't have "care" right away ....

If you joined me next month that would be amazing !!!!

 

[Petzy]

I also note it's officially Xmas ! Merry Xmas you awesome women! Hope you have a great holiday with your family /friends. I am really glad I met all of you and I feel so lucky. Don't know what I would do without you all xoxo
