March/April BFP's who's going for it!! NEW LADIES COME JOIN IN!!

TTC Moon, thank you SO much for that information! My insurance pays for most of the IUI, so that's ok. IVF here is about $12,000, so yes it it much cheaper there. I'm not sure if the flights, hotel, loss of work pay to go would cost us another 3-5 thousand dollars, making it cost just as much in the end. We'd have to look into it further!
 
Hotel cost is not much here.If you stay in normal hotels it would be $100 per day.Star hotel $200 per day(that is too costly).We stay in $50 with AC and every modern amenity.I have seen so many people coming here because of the cost and success rate.as $1 means 61Rupees, in even $1 you can grab a sub!non vegs for $2-$3.
 
Mowat- I know it must be hard waiting til next month. Don't worry though. We are right here with you!

TTCMoon- Thanks for your encouragement. My breasts are very heavy and actually pretty sore as of today!

AFM- Back to work for me! I don't have access to this blog during my long work days but still will try to check in at least a few times a week in the evenings after the baby goes to bed. :) Good luck to you ladies! :dust:
 
Helloooo ladies! I've been busy/MIA for a while, so once again I'm gearing up for a wall-of-text. :P Bear with me!

Tricia! CONGRATS! That is exciting news indeed! Glad everything's looking good! :happydance: I can sort of guess how it would feel because I felt so strongly girl also...but got a girl. But I remember thinking it'd throw me off a bit if I found out it was a boy because at that time, all I could think was GIRL! I bet you already have that out of your system now though and are all about the blue!

Left, isn't it wild how that bump just pops up out of of nowhere! It's like...nothing...maybe a little something...maybe a little rounder...OH HELLO BABY! Or maybe that was just me. ;) Glad things are going well!

Starrryyyyyy~ I saw your post the other day and I was so overjoyed for you! :wohoo:

LOL raunchy to me has two meanings: 1) perverse, and 2) gross. Listed in order of what I think of first, lol.

ttcmoon, countdown is on, eh? Are you a poas addict? When will you test? No IUI for me yet. Going to give it another couple of cycles after the HSG to see if I'm one of the lucky ones to benefit from a good tube cleaning. After that, I could do an IUI but I want to talk to my Dr about some more tests first. Because I've seen talk about some things we haven't done yet and it has me curious.

ES, sounds like we're going to pretty much be cycle buddies again. Today (Thursday) is CD1 for me. Glad you didn't have the nasty pre-AF symptoms this time! I didn't have spotting in the days before AF this time, which was never a thing for me until the previous couple of cycles or so. I was starting to worry it was my new normal. Sorry AF got you...but on to the next I guess. Hope everything checks out well on Friday.

mowat, glad you're feeling better!

I didn't know that about taking the fish oil. Poop, last few cycles (well, except this one just past) I've had such a bad attitude, I didn't take my prenatal consistently at all before ov. And my prenatal has DHA in it. I was planning to switch to Fertilaid when my order arrives (it has prenatal type ingredients too), but it doesn't have the omega 3 in it. I guess I'll have to pick up a separate fish oil now.

lisa, glad things are sounding good for you!

AFM, nothing much to report. CD1, here we go again....
 
THe fish oil my naturopath recommended is liquid (yes, you get used to the taste eventually!) and is called super EFA liquid and is made by Genestra Brands. It was somewhat expensive, but one bottle seems to last forever. She suggested going with the liquid because she said once you get pregnant you'd need to take so many fish oil pills it would be ridiculous. The liquid is much more concentrated. I upped my folic this morning---one more pill a day might just kill me!
 
mowat - Thanks for the information.I am not sure if it is available here though.I wish you all the best.

eyemom - new cycle new hopes.FX'd.

Lisa - Take good care dear. :)
 
(Panting....breathing hard....and WOOSAHHHHHHing at the same time....wheeewwww, just finish reading.....so here we go :winkwink:

Kat s: You are so right, it's definitely getting his immune system built up for schooling and being around other children. But is it ok if i ask my cousin(the mom of the child who has a cold) to come over here and buy his cold remedies and soothe him back to good health since she's ok with spreading germs:shrug: Sorry about that awful nurse....sometimes although I know it's not right but u want some people who have no clue to experience what we have to go through and then maybe they'll understand our sadness and be a bit more compassionate! Silly lady, and what a field to be working in with that type of attitude, it's bad enough we have to deal with our own problems but now we got to add people like her to our problematic bucket list.....ummmm I rather not, knowing me I'll tell her myself that's she has awful customer service then tell her boss, my money has to be worth something right? That acupuncture looks soothing actually (I know, I'm so weird). Kat S you do whatever u need to do for your babies, you deserve it, and those babies are waiting for you!! You'll be a great mom look at all that you're doing now, just imagine how much love you'll have when you get your rainbow babies(sss with many s on the end) bc FX for twins!!

Mowat: Sorry you're going through the motions and don't feel bad for expressing how you feel, it's normal, we're here for you!! And it definitely sounds like your food as in breakfast lunch and dinner has turned into a pill buffet :winkwink: I hope you're at least drinking some water to add to this delicious meal. Don't worry, those vitamins are good for you and your health and will give your baby a great start too...so eat away! O and yea it's hard trying to NOT try when you really want to so bad because maybe this is the time we'll get prego is always running through our heads if we don't try. It's your decision but I know whatever happens (getting a BFP) your body will work with you!! Never limit your dreams bc of one setback....Go for it:hugs:

Pinkcasi: Sorry to hear that your OH is putting you through the ringer, like you need anymore stress added on. I would be very upset too bc he had to learn his lesson at the cost of someone even him could've gotten hurt or even worse...death. He needs to be here for y'all bc he will be superman in that little girls eyes. I hope he learned his lesson for I know in his heart he means good for his family, sometimes we just make bad decisions and can't see them ourselves or even hear the person whose yelling what's right and wrong in our ear. It's best we learn from our own mistakes. But sorry it had to be at the cost if you losing transportation. The pros and cons of this is he may learn his lesson from you having the poont(fart) face when u have to call a taxi. Sorry Pink, but try to relax and enjoy the rest of your 7 weeks it's really all about you and your precious little girl!!

Left wondering: 22 weeks!! WOWSERS you're moving extra fast, I wonder is it because we can't slow down your process by watching your ticker move everyday to see what fruit you are today. What symptons if any are you having? Such as when you go to sleep or any weight gain?

Sweetz: You are awesome, did I tell you I am definitely your biggest fan...ok ok ok well 2nd Because I know Xander don't play about his mommy!!

Tricia: Welcome to Team Blue!!!! It's so awesome if you're not into having to do hair everyday but brush it:haha: (I wonder of this make me sound lazy) You deserve him, now sit back and get ready for his arrival, he'll be here sooner then you think! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Starry: How Awesome :wohoo: :wohoo: :wohoo: Now stop worrying and talk to your rainbow baby that's snuggling in ya!!! That is great news, now the next scan will be gender, O how I'm so excited for you ...I think I'm humming and singing again....doooo dooop dee doop....I'm a tune box.

Eswemba: Glad to hear AF is being lenient this time, hey and that's definitely awesome great news!! Do you think your weight loss may have something to do with your AF being kind this time? O this is a beginning to a fresh start, so gear up and get ready, it's yours for the taking:hugs:

Lisalee: O Nooo, you're going back to work :nope: (trust me I'm so happy for you, it's just the stay at home mom in me is a tad but jealous....in the happiest way possible) You have a life, whereas mine is all about Asking DS, "Why haven't you had a bowel movement yet?, I'm waiting Mister!" And he'd even be looking at me like, "Lady, you definitely need a hobby, finding joy in cleaning my poop!" Have a great day, I will miss you posting everyday but I do understand.

Tamzing: I love your attitude!! You so belong here if I haven't stressed it before! Where are you in your cycle now?

Eyemom: Sorry you're feeling so blue but what a dollbaby you have to try and make mommy feel better, they are so perfect it's almost scary that they can make us feel better when it suppose to be the other way around. Give her a kiss for me because she brought my spirits up too.

Ttc moon: India definitely sounds great over there for those IUI's and IVF, those prices are great! FX for you this cycle!

Mackjess: Don't you worry, I'm sure you lost a bit of weight after giving birth to your prince. That definitely counts for something!

MamaTex: Sky is turning 2 months!! Awesome! When they told me time fly...it really does!!! If it's not raining and has a bit if sun out i know she will appreciate it. Everyone needs fresh air outside, especially you! Sometimes it can feel as if the walls are closing in being stuck in the home all day. Enjoy your day out you and Ms. Sky! HIIII :hi: Sky !!

Hi Garfie :hi: What you up to ma'am...I hope planning to take what's yours from that DH of yours :haha:

Wheeeew, breathing hard, that was really a workout, the strongest part on my body should be my thumb from tapping all day on my iPhone....I definitely have a da da da daaaaaahhh "THE SUPER THUMB!"

If I forgot anyone ...O can't forget my BNB PREGO WITH ME BUDDY ...Hi Bamagurl :hi:

Ok now, if I forgot anyone apologies. I had a lot to catch up on sorry for being MIA, my DS still has the nasty horrible cold but I guess we're making progress, he's nose is running clear rather then being congested most if the day. He is so keeping me busy....he is officially a professional crawler. He dosent want me to pick him up, he'll rather follow me by crawling. And I vacuum daily but he stills find ways to embarrass me by finding little tiny things that I would never see and picking it up as if saying," Lady you're not on your job, so just because of this, I'm going to eat it with lint and all!" :dohh: I got him crawling on video and it is perfect I can't wait until he gets older and I'll give these videos to him so he can see how perfect and special he is to me. I couldn't ask for anything more then to be his mom I am so grateful, to my father in heaven. Good Day Ladies!!
 
Wow....Congrats to the mom of the professional crawler!Please share the video link with us as well.I would love to see him following you.You must be feeling great!
 
I'm still here - just been a bit busy:wacko:

Never - you have just saved me a job of having to do personals - so I will do mine later:winkwink:

I can't believe how well all you preggo ladies are doing (that gives me hope) :happydance:

Sorry for those that she got :growlmad:

I also would love to see the video of the professional crawler:happydance:

AFM - I have had a strange old month - POS OPKs NEG OPKs POS OPKs (you get the picture) temps up and down up and down - so I guess it was only fitting that my HPTs behave the same way:dohh: I got a squinter a few days ago when it was wet there was deff a line but by the time it had dried it had gone:cry: next day I did another BFN:cry: following day another squinter this time dry (hubby saw) but by the time I came home from work - it was gone:cry: this morning BFN - deff a dodgy batch don't you agree, thank gosh I temp (even though that's been difficult to interpret this month) so now I just want this cycle over and done with so I can start afresh - CD 32 6DPO?????????

:hugs:

X
 
Garfie, looks like you got trapped in a strange cycle.But as you got +ve OPK's so many times.May be its just 6DPO for you.( I believe this is counted from the last +ve OPK).So hang on! :hugs:
 
I agree ttc moon - this threw me

OMG garfie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :happydance: :happydance: :happydance: :happydance::happydance: :happydance: :happydance: :happydance:

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW!!!! Is that what I think it is?!?

So happy for you! Congrats!
 
Lisalee - It was but then I'm thinking a nasty evap - because next day BFN then yesterday another squinter and today yup a BFN - so I will continue to test until I get a result one way or another:wacko:

How cute do all those happy people look - but for now I can't claim them:cry:

:hugs:

I upped my folic this morning---one more pill a day might just kill me!

I forget what brand I'm using right now. It was the only liquid one available at our small town's natural food store. I had temporarily switched to pills because they were cheaper, but yeah, you have to take 3 a day and I'm taking so many other pills that I thought liquid would be easier. I only need to take 1tsp once a day.

My good scan hasn't completely removed my fears. I lost my first baby at 12 weeks after seeing it alive and well at 10 weeks so I know anything can happen yet. Both dh and I still feel like we're waiting for the other shoe to drop, so to speak. But I do feel like I can start to hope and plan.

garfie - nasty evaps!!! I hate them so much! :growlmad: I hope it's just early and you get your bfp soon.

never - I hope your little man gets better soon. And hurray to his crawling!! I know it can be a pain when they become mobile but it's so amazing to watch them grow and learn new things.

Tricia congrats on Team Blue! Little boys are so much fun. They keep you active and make you laugh.

eyemom - :hugs: I hope your turn comes soon.
 
Hi ladies...

Garfie: ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHH:growlmad::growlmad::growlmad::growlmad::growlmad::growlmad::growlmad::growlmad::growlmad::growlmad::growlmad: for bad batches, if that box of test had any feelings I would've made it cry until then I'm pretending I have them here with me and stepping the heck out of them....STUPID TESTS!!! Don't worry Garfie, I Soooo hope it's just early and your body is just trying to surprise you...o please o please let that be the case....now I'm stomping on them again....arrrghh! Woooosaahhhhhhhhh:haha:

TTC moon: lol I will try to get it up for I never did a video before...

Starry : it really is awesome watching him get into troublement:dohh:
 
image.jpgHey ladies, oh garfie what a crock! Sorry

Starry I understand your still going to be concerned I know I was until....well I guess I still am a wee bit but I calmed down a lot after 13 weeks, I don't think we'll ever stop worrying.

So the nursery is pretty much finished, there's a few finishing touches like coat hooks and the clock but the rest is done, here's pics I might have to do several posts as I can never seem to get more than one pic per post but I'll give a go....
 
This took ages to get on right but I'm chuffed with how it turned out :happydance:
