[armymama2012]

Ugh...I hope they actually tell me my numbers this time. I got blood drawn from each arm last night felt like a pin cushion. And I HATE needles! Well the lady didn't call today so I if she doesn't call tomorrow I will make the appointment when I go in on Wednesday.

 

[Krissy485]

Hisgrace- Thanks hun! Man i wish i had your strength through all of this! I am still praying for you and I hope that God doesnt keep you waiting too much longer!

Lisa- thanks! how you been feeling?

Baybee-yay on the u/s! dont remember if i posted that yet? lol

ARmy- i totally for got to tell you this! When i was prego with my dd i had a bfp at the dr office by urine at 3w3d so they sent me in for an u/s thinking i was further along since i was with my son, this was through my primary dr. WEll when i did the u/s i had to have been about as far along as you and when the tech was doing it, and i had the transvaginal one, she said i dont see any signs of pregnancy. I started to BAWL my eyes out!!! i thought i for sure she ment that i wasnt pregnant or i was going to mc. Luckly my mom was with me to beside dh bc she looked at the tech and goes that just means she too early to see anything right? and the tech, who hadnt noticed i was crying or thought i was crying for a different reason, goes oh my goodnes its ok i am so sorry to scare you. she said since i was so early in pregnancy that nothing would show bc the baby was only the size of the tip of an ink pen and all she ment that by saying she could not see anything was that my dates were right on. So that being said i think you are ok! i hope that makes you feel better bc i remember being in your shoes!

Sweetz-you always make me smile! thank you!

Janelle- yeah i can understand that from his point of view BUT it was HIS idea to move here! and my parents left yesterday morning for their vacation. so who freaking knows? But what i am happy for is that your boobs are killing you!!! teeheee you deserve it and i mean it in the best way possible!

everyone else!

AFM- it is about 5:30am and i just got dh off to work...why may you ask did i get on her instead of going to bed? you must be thinking i have wonderful news i couldnt keep to myself....nope...just another blonde moment! so i was thinking for whatever reason af was due friday...nope cant count i guess....bc i woke up with dh and i had the startings of a migraine and thought well i just had one saturday grr....went to do my morning pee and guess what AF! i was like WTF!!! then went to calander and counted...only 1 day early so 27 day cycle and i have gone as short as 26 before....GRRRRRRR.....and here i thought with my parents gone i could get it on with dh....up side is they wont be back for a week so FX af will be a shorter one like 3-4 days....we will see! oh and last night when i went to bed dh was still playing video games and i just started to cry from frustration. so he goes here goes krissy crying giving me the guilt trip...well wouldnt be a guilt trip if you didnt have anything to feel guilty for asshole! i was just so freaking mad at him. well when we finally laid down for sleep. he of course cuddles me and goes you know i love you...and i said yeah i do and i love you....one thing i know is no matter how pissed we are at eachother i never i want to go to bed without saying i love you...

ok so i have to go now bc i took a migraine pill about half hour ago and it is kicking in starting to feel fuzzy gotta get some more sleep before i have to get up with kids for school....love you ladies and thanks for all of your love and support def gets me through times like theses!

 

[armymama2012]

Thanks Krissy. Yea, just scared of an ectopic. I know it is very early so they can't see much til 5-6 weeks.

 

[lpjkp]

Krissy: Aww hun, I really feel for you with our other halves being absolute bumheads and us still loving their every flaw! My DH is a bit of an idiot with games too, but he seems to realise when I'm about to turn all dragon on his ass, so knows when to stop! It sucks that AF has turned up, too, so be sure to do something that would be forbidden if you were pregnant and stay positive...this IS the start of a new cycle and this IS a fresh attempt to catch that egg! I've got all my fingers and toes crossed for you that this is going to be your month x

Sweetz: Good luck on your next ultrasound and can't wait to find out the sex of "bimple"! I'm taking a good guess on team BLUE!

Army: Sorry to hear of your worries about your pregnancy, and I hope that the doctors get to the bottom of it soon enough, and that it's completely healthy...I remember having all sorts of aches and pains in my first couple of weeks (Till around 6 weeks), but you have to trust that your baby is fine and that your body is doing everything that's needed for him/her to grow healthily! And, remember, the statistics overall for a pregnancy being successful are in your favour...it just seems like ectopics/mmcs/mc etc are more common online because when we suffer problems/losses related to pregnancy, we seek out forums like this for support and answers (This forum included!)...stay positive hun, and I'm sure everything will turn out fine x

Leather: Hi! Welcome to the group! The ladies in this forum are lovely and a wonderful form of support! I definitely wouldn't have gotten through the last 5 months like I have without them! You're in a great place...sorry to hear about your troubles with TTC, too. I tried robitussin and also pre-seed whilst I was TTC (I didn't have a lot of CM), but those cycles didn't make too much of a difference for me...I finally got my BFP the month we stopped using anything and decided to take a break from TTC. I really hope the Metformin works wonders for you this time, and you get that long-awaited BFP you're dreaming of...x

Janelley: I'm really learning that I shouldn't complain when I'm feeling almost human because, BAM!, it all comes back and hits me like a ton of bricks! I was only sitting on the sofa this morning very smugly telling my husband that I felt great today and even had some breakfast then, BAM!, an hour later and my head is in the toilet and I'm having my daily dose of vomiting! That little rasberry inside of me is definitely teaching me not to be so smug!

HisGrace: Aww hun, I'm so sorry for what you're going through and I really admire your strength and courage...I've never really been all that religious, but sometimes I wish I were a little bit more because I really do thing that when it's meant to be, it's meant to be...I really hope that you have that miracle baby and it is your time x

BayBeeEm: YAY for a healthy little bean!! I'm extremely happy for you! Sounds like everything is right on track! Any idea of how far along you are?x

Aspe: Hey girl! Sounds like your having a bit of confusion with your ovulation day...my best advice that I can give you is to just have a good listen to your body. My cervix position/texture was never the most reliable indicator for me, and I NEVER seemed to have a noticeable amount of EWCM, so I relied mostly on how I FELT. I felt like I was a lot more turned on around the time of ovulation and really wanted to pounce DH (I've not normally got that high a sex drive) and I usually got a bit crampy around ovulation time too. The most important thing though is not trying to "time" BD'ing. It's much better to just enjoy BD'ing with your OH regularly and, even if you only BD 2-3 times a week, that's good enough to cover all your bases...I hope that helps a little x

Lisa: Hello sweet potato!! I haven't got a clue what a "registry" is (I'm not sure whether that's because I'm in the UK) but it sounds exciting!I've had a little mooch on the BabysRUs for the UK, and they do some very cute baby stuff! We're waiting until around 20 weeks though to make any purchases, so that's not until just after christmas for me!Happy shopping!x

Storked: I'd be really sad if you left You were one of the original members when the group first started, and you were a great form of support for me always picking me up when I felt down...I think a lot of people can relate in the group to not always feeling "heard", but it is a lovely busy group and you help make it what it is x I'm sorry you're not feeling very motivated, and I guess it's hard when one by one people are getting BFPs and talking babies, but it WILL happen to us all when the time is right...I know how you feel, because I felt a little upset to some degree when I was still TTC and others were getting BFPs and I kept thinking "why me?", but all the hard work and determination WILL pay off, I promise you, and you will be on top of the world and so happy...take a break away if that's what you need to do, but I've always admired your positivity, and it's that positivity that will help you continue on your way to that BFP xxx

Bama: EEK!! Such a good ultrasound! I had a good look at it, and I'm SURE I can make out little babies head and start of little arms and legs?!And YAY for celebrating baby! Some of our close family found out around 4 weeks and we finally bit the bullet and announced it after our first scan just before 8 weeks...we finally thought the same as you and figured "well, it's not going to make a difference whether we tell people or not, and what will be will be!" I'm staying positive and thinking that the odds are in our favour and we WILL be having those little beans that are on our U/S in a few months time!x

Garfie: I'm really sorry to hear about AF arriving early...I'd have considered the whole implantation bleed too...has the CBFM been having any benefit for you? I think it might be an idea to maybe see how that goes for another month, and then take a visit to the doctors and demand some answers if it hasn't worked...it could be something so simple stopping your BFP! I've got my fingers crossed that this is your month xx

I think (I hope!) I've got everybody...I know I haven't got Never, so Hi Never!!!!! Hope you and little baby are doing fantastically!! Any other ladies I have forgotten, hi and hope you're well!!

AFM: I'd first like to apologize if I've upset anybody still going through the journey of TTC...after going through a loss and then the stress of TTC, I guess I was really elated to get a BFP and have everything going positively. I think, because I was so relieved that everything was going well, that I wanted to share my journey with everyone, and never considered that I might be "rubbing it in" for anybody that hasn't yet gotten their BFP and are feeling deflated or upset...so, to anyone I may have been a little inconsiderate to, I really do apologize...I'm not sure how I can really update about myself without talking about my pregnancy, so perhaps I'm not as good a form of support anymore for people TTC...I don't know, I just read a lot lately about people not feeling motivated or getting down and I just don't want to make them feel worse by talking about what they're so desperately hoping for, you know?

 

[lisalee1]

Krissy- I'm feeling fine. Nothing exciting to report.

LPJ- Nice to hear from you! I loved your advice to ASPE about just BD'ing 2-3 times a week. I agree with that approach. And you are SOOOO right about sex drive increasing around ovulation. That happened to me too.

 

[Storked]

HisGrace, you will be blessed. I wish that you could talk to your husband about it more but he sounds rather similar to mine. Probably not wanting to talk about it because it makes him sad and he wants to be strong. But you will be blessed and it will all be worth it.

Lpjkp, thanks girl but don't know how positive I am anymore. I do need to absent myself from the thread just because it is too painful. I remember somebody saying that watching A Baby Story just depressed them- that is me with this thread.
And it hurts to feel like nobody cares what I have to contribute because I am not in the same place of life as them.
As for your pregnancy, I don't think that there is anything wrong with you talking about it. What depresses me as a TTCer is when ladies become pregnant and forget that I exist and talk only about themselves. This used to be a thread where we included everybody you know? I think you do a good job.

BayBeeEm, I used to comment all the time but I was forced to back off due to limited Internet access and it just hasn't been the same since. I don't think it is fair to go unacknowledged for something that I couldn't (and can't when I move again) be helped
Glad you are sick and have a bean were it belongs!

Krissy, I can't think of anything to persuade your husband short of the obvious. When I start to become sexually frustrated with no relief in sight, I start hurling slights against the offender's manhood...which does not make them annoyed enough for sex. Well, it never worked for my ex lol.

Lisa, I think my head is already clear. :-/

Aspe, can they give you clomid to help ensure ovulation? Then you could get knocked up with multiples

Leather, sorry for your loss. It is hard. Maybe try softcups too?

Army, I feel like I already had my break but nothing for me to come back to anymore. Sad because I used to love this thread.

Sweetz, like I can leave a FB buddy
Did you try a bath to soften the bimple? POP (giggles)

Janelley, I know you will PM me eventually. You are golden like that lol

 

[lpjkp]

I understand storked, and I fully support any decision you make, and I know I've never met anybody in this thread, but Id feel a little sad if you went if that doesn't sound too mad? As a TTCer myself, it WAS painful to read/hear about everyone's BFPs and it hurt to think that I was trying so hard and wanted it so much that it almost didn't feel fair that it wasn't my turn...that being said, it was a really sad way for me to feel, and I really didn't want to feel bitter or disappointed that others had gotten what I wanted...I had to really work hard to change my outlook and take the time myself to heal and take a step away to realise that, of all those pregnant woman we see, hear and read about that get pregnant just by looking at a guy, there are so many more that have struggled just the same, if not more than myself...it took a long time, but I did begin to feel happy for others, and I think by accepting that it was out of my control and trusting that I COULD get pregnant, it helped me in the longrun.

I'm sorry it's an essay, but in a roundabout way I just wanted to try and get across to you that time is a great healer and positive thinking goes a long way for your own health and for your outlook as a whole. You may not think it'll ever happen at this point, and I know that feeling too, but even the ladies in this thread that have been lucky enough to get that long-awaited bfp have had that feeling too at some point and, even though I have been fortunate enough to become pregnant too, i will not forget all those emotions and difficulties of getting to this point and I will always appreciate and understand and sympathise with women that are still TTC.

This thread has been, and will be for as long as it continues, a thread for unfortunate women like us that have experienced a loss and that are on the journey of TTC and beyond...as someone who knew from the beginning that people in the thread would (and have) gotten their bfps, we were all there to support each other regardless of what stage of the journey we are on, pregnant or not, and shouldn't feel like we can't talk about our TTC journey in fear of upsetting the pregnant members or can't talk about pregnancy in fear of upset the TTCers.

Sorry for the essay ladies, but I feel slightly sad that it's got to the point where I'm too worried to embrace my pregnancy on this thread in fear of upsetting others that have previously been a great support network

 

[Storked]

Talk about your pregnancy. Don't distance yourself from everyone. We can all embrace each other because we used to. The fact that we were mostly TTCers wasn't what made us all stick together. If that was the case then every thread on this site would be a hit. It was that we all cared deeply about one another, in every aspect of life.

Where did the joy and positivity go? The cheers? The super long posts with everyone getting a mention? Those posts are less and less from everyone it seems.

 

[Storked]

I remember when Never would post that we had to be considerate of all the ladies.

 

[lpjkp]

Hmmm.......maybe, just maybe, we should all when we post write something completely silly or random and non-baby making related about our day/something that we've done/seen/heard/read....A bit random, I know, but might be good to do!!!

Errrmmmm, easier said than done, so let me think...........
I've realised today that I'm a lazy bum and will never get my uni work done by sitting at home and watching chat shows all day on TV with the caption "You only wanted sex but now you need to accept you're a father!" The guy is 100% sure he's not the dad, the lady is 1000% sure he is...and of course, he's the dad!
I live around the corner from Buckingham Palace, and was very excited to see it lit up pink last night for Breast Cancer Awareness!

Obviously people can probably do better than my measly attempt!haha!

 

[Storked]

Oh heck lpjkp, what is y'alls version of Jerry Springer? Don't feel bad for etertainment choices. Sometimes bad tv makes you feel better about your life in general My family can't get enough about shows with surgery, about serial killers, or people with weird medical things wrong with them...like being a hermaphrodite. Not many people want to watch tv with us
Do you like where you live? Is the view of the Buckingham to die for? And are you a fan of Sherlock?

Random post: I can not stop obsessing over how old I look in my passport picture! Makes me want to do something drastic to my hair to look more like a teenager. All I got is bangs and I look terrible with bangs (fringe to you Europeans )

 

[lpjkp]

We have good old Jeremy Kyle (jezza!)...come to think of it, I'm sure he's doing a Jeremy Kyle show USA! They air old episodes of jerry springer over here,but I think it's too OTT! Are they acting? They can't be real! And they all just randomly dance around poles and get their hooters out...crazzyyyyy!

I think I'm very lucky to live where I live,but sometimes London is too busy for me! Too touristy and,every time I'm out walking my dogs,I'm guaranteed to be asked directions! I'll have to take a photo of Buckingham palace (my husband does guards at the front of it, he's one of the guys in the red tunics and big bearskin hats!)....it does look great, but big Ben and everything else just round the corner is way more spectacular to look at!

As for Sherlock (very random!), I like the new films with Robert Downey junior and Jude law (not sure if that was in the states or not)...very funny!

HAHA bangs?! Is that really a word? I look like a muppet in my passport! Then again, I look like a muppet on my drivers licence, ID, normal photographs etc....

 

[bamagurl]

Storked~ I am so sorry! I know I have been super slacker post lady. I need to do better on mentioning everyone I have read about. I completely understand needing to take a break because I felt the same way when I was ttc.

It can get a tad upsetting when all the talk is of pregnancy issues when not all of our ladies are pregnant & this is a ttc forum.

i apologize for my lack of acknowledging each of you lovely ladies. I hope I haven't upset anyone

 

[Storked]

Lpjkp, Jeremy Kyle! I have seem that though before it came here- on YouTube maybe
I think Jerry Springer is fake a lot but sadly I know that some of them are too true. I am from a hick town in Texas and there were a few families that went on the show. It made the paper. Hell, only rednecks would brag about that though now that I am thinking about it...I wonder of most of the guests are from the south. We are pretty dramatic lol!

When people ask for directions, I think you should look at them blankely and say that you were lost and about to ask them for directions. Mean but funny eh?
So tell me, do you like his uniform? (winks wildly)

Do you like BBC Sherlock? The movies aren't bad at all either. Haven't seen them in ages

I swear that we call fringe "bangs" over here! I will have to make my English look more British for you. I have probably failed already in this posts hehe

 

[Storked]

Thanks Bama
I didn't want to offend anybody but so many of the ladies still TTC have become more and more silent and that makes me sad. I hope that we can bring everyone back because we have always been such a tight-knit group!

 

[Sweetz33]

I heart Jermey Kyle!!! Watch him every day!! He is such a bad ass!! Even DH likes him bc he says, yo that British dude don't put up with no crap! Rofl!! Jerry Springer...sadly but true....is real......welcome to the world of the south....what?! I can say that...I live in the south haha

So....Storked.....you like my singing?

The "sex" of my bimple will be undetermined as I'm in the process of eradicating the sucker. Started last night, nearly puked on the couch while DH mutilated my backside. Pain got too much so he stopped....TBC lol

Randomness.....hmm...I am the queen of randomness.....but of course when I need to be random....my mind goes all PFFFFFFFFFFFFT!!!! (Figures)

Well I must feed the fur kids, feed the alien in my tummy (lol) what? The way lil bean was moving all night it felt like an alien! Then to complete the eradication.....

Ohhhh random! Got it!! I had to distract myself last night for the pain...so I started listening to a song I am addicted too...it is my new happy song. "Gangnam Style" looooooooove itttttttt (yup I totally said that out loud like a flamer while I wrote that hehe)

 

[Krissy485]

storked- i know what you mean! I know there on times where i will do just a quick post...but most of the time i try to address everyone who has posted since the last time i was on.I feel like if they take time to post i should take the time to comment even if it is just a hi. i have truely missed you while you were gone and i did become to wonder if you were really gone due to lack of internet or lack of motivation to post. I have also noticed that those stil TTC are pretty quiet. I have started to feel alone to in here but then i remind myself that all these ladies still keep me going when my days are rough. Love ya girl!

Bama- you have not upset me at all...but then again i am a pretty understanding person lol.

Lp- great to see you doing well...have no clue who you are talking about lol...oh and the Jerry Springer thing...ready for this....my PARENTS actually went to see him live about 6 YEARS ago LMAO! my dad LOVES that show and DVR's it everyday. i think it is stupid...he just found the tape of when they went and had my kids see him and grandma on TV-you could see them in the audience not on stage lol....

Sweetz- REALLY?!?!? Gangman? come on girl! at least you should have had "I'm sexxy and i know it" going through your head at that moment. Oh and with my pimple on my butt it hurt like a B****!!!!!!

Army-YES just relax the best you can and think happy baby thoughts!

ok AFM- went to chriropractor today...saw xrays..not good got bone spurs already and neck totally messed! hopefully get it corrected. made an appt. for my oldest son i hope it help him.Af is in FULLY swing which i am happy about so hopefully done and gone FAST!
other than that what does a stay at home mom have to do? CLEAN lol and pick daughter up from school, take an application in for the hubby, go for walk once ds gets off bus and a looooong list of other stuff. Love you ladies!

 

[Krissy485]

Oh forgot randomness...hmm.... oh i am that bad mom that feeds her kids donuts at the dr office first thing in the morning with chocolate milk....WHAT? we had to get up and go this morning and older 2 eat breakfest at school so kindof forgot ot feed younger ds before we left he ate didnt he lol

 

[Sweetz33]

Lol Krissy...YouTube the video and you will see why I picked that song...
