Leather, I have heard the same about O after DH! for you!

Jessandaj, so sorry for your loss dear
Sending some your way!

Aspe, dizziness can be a preggo sign. How long until AF is due again?
No testing date planned since I am still irregular :-/

Howdy to HisGrace! How are you feeling today?

thanks sweetheart!! I got a pug puppy. had a 10 month old lab already. both males.. so my hands are totally full rightnow.. they fight they play they drive me mad..LOL
BTW where are you in your cycle rightnow?

 

[shefali83]

Hello my darlings i am back in action. feeling much better now Got a new pug puppy as well so its keeping me super busy and tired how is everyone doing? Hello and welcome to all the new(well not so new anymore ) ladies
I missed you all I am expecting my af tomo or day after so will hopefully start ttc from this cycle but not the natural way. will do the inseminations with syringe as i am still sore to think of but nothing can stop me from ttc again
Love u all

Shef: Hey glad to hear the positive feedback on preseed. I'm using pre seed too. I haven't used it as instructed yet though. I used it 2 times just externally but I guess I better use it internal this cycle. Oh can you tell me about the insemination w/syringe? Is that IUI or something done at home? Baby dust to you.

Preseed is great. i use it both internally and externally so in short a lot of it but it surely has helped.
Its not IUI its IVI (Intravaginal insemination). will insert the swimmers with the syringe at home everyday during my fertile days

 

[shefali83]

Hi everyone!

Hope life is treating you all well. I tried to read as much as I could and remember as much. Will give it a shot.

Never- LOVE the pic! Such a beautiful pic. Sorry you had a bad day yesterday and hopefully today was better. How are you feeling symptoms-wise?

Welcome to the new ladies- Jessica and Runner.

Runner- Sorry for the long bleeding. Like you, I hope you're back to ovulating in the next 10-14 days.

BayBee- I see that everything is progressing well! 142 HB is GREAT!!!! Congrats! And Yay for the increased appetite! I'm still waiting on mine to kick up.

HisGrace- Hope that everything is well.

Aspe- Sorry that everything is so confusing right now. I hope that you get some kind of answers soon. I can understand that this is probably a stressful time, but it will get better.

Sweetz- Congrats on becoming a mango! How are you feeling?

Storked- What have you been up to?

Bama- Glad that everything is progressing nicely. What are your symptoms now?

to Shefali and anyone I may have missed.

AFM- I am loving the 2nd trimester! No problems here. I don't have any cravings and wonder if I will get any. Haven't gained much.
Still working on my baby registry- just a few finishing touches. Has anyone else started working on theirs yet?

hey dear how r u?
Time flies.. cant believe 2nd trimester is already here!! wow..

 

[shefali83]

Welcome JessandAj and Wantnum2! I am so sorry for your losses but you've come to the right place for support.

Sweetz- sorry about your pain and the "wonderful" doctor. I hope things are going ok. Let us know how the doctor's appointment goes

Nevergivingup - sorry you weren't having a good day yesterday. Didn't see you here today ... I hope all is well and or getting better.

Storked - My favorite Houstonian! I logged in today halfway expecting to see some sexy dish to cater to my inner foodie.

Shefalia - Welcome back. I really, really did miss you! So glad your back and back at it!

Garfie - thanks for the refresher on your story! Sometimes I forget where we are coming from but hearing it all again makes me feel closer.

HisGrace - Heeeeeeey! Thanks for noticing my blueberry day! I can't believe I will be two months next week! How are you? Are you all clear concerning the spotting?

AFM - The urge to sleep in increasing by the day. I am having never ending bloating. Yesterday I think I had a touch of MS hence the reason I wasn't feeling so great yesterday. Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well. Love to read your updates.

missed you too.. i am so happy to be back here. u all are family now

 

[shefali83]

Hello lovely ladies!

Sorry I haven't been on for a few days, I've had a few really poopy days (Hopefully, I'm over the worst now..)...I've tried my hardest to catch up, but there is so much activity going on, so I'll try my hardest to catch up.

Bethany: Argh! I didn't recognise it was you talking till last minute, I didn't recognise the monkey avatar! How are you doing? Did you find Ed Sheeran and have a listen to him?

Lisa: Do not make me jealous! I am SO over this first trimester already! I'm DREAMING of the day I can understand how great you're feeling in second tri, but I feel like this feeling is never going to end!!!! So happy you're feeling so great though! What is a registry by the way?

Never: (Not sure if I've already commented)...That is the cutest bump (And the cutest maxi dress) I have seen!!!!!! Pregnancy definitely suits your body!!!! How's your little boy doing?

Sweetz: Is there still no update on the gender yet?! Love your updated bump piccie! I'm inclined to say girl...though am I saying that because of the pink vest top you're wearing?!

BayBeeEm: Boo for pants preggo symptoms I'd like to say there's an end to the bloating, but at 11 weeks tomorrow it's still going strong for me!!!

Runner: Hello, I don't think I've met you yet!!!!! Yay for the end of bleeding and hope ovulation zooms around for you, and you get that sticky BFP in no time xx

Shefali: Hey girl! Haven't seen you on here for a lonngg time now!!!!! Glad to read you're feeling better (And a new puppy addition to the family always helps!), and yay for starting TTC again!!!!!! Let's hope, after all your hard work, that you get that BFP really soon!xxxx

Fiona: Good luck today (I think it's today from what I read??) with your gynae appointment...I hope all goes well and you get lots of sympathy, help and support to help you successfully on your TTC journey...I didn't realise you had two boys already! How old are they now?xxx

thanks sweetie.. this yr has been a rollercoaster ride.. mmc then bartholin surgery then a chemical pg.. just waiting to get af so that i can start ttc again.. due to the chemical the cycle is messed up!

 

[shefali83]

Immmmmm baaacccckkkkk lol

[shefali83]

Hello I had my miscarriage at the very beginning of this month, I'm hoping to get a bfp this month or next month ! Good luck to everyone and lots of babydust ! Sorry for all the losses

hello dear! welcome here! you will love this thread and the ladies out here everyone is very supportive. I am so sorry for your loss. Hope you heal up soon. thumps up for trying again asap

Thank you I'm nervous but I've been ready to have a baby for a very long time so even with the pain of my loss I can't imagine waiting even longer to even have a chance of getting pregnant.

Hey Ladies,

I would like to join. Hoping to get a bfp for November!

Hello welcome here

baby dust to you

This is an awesome thread with awesome supportive ladies
Please tell us about yourself We all would like to know more about you

Hey,

Well I just experienced a loss last week. Was a chemical. But am totally geared up for trying again. I have a DD who is 12 this year, so a massive age gap.

Nice to meet you all

Hello Ladies and New Ladies,
I'm so sorry for your lost and we are all here for you. I see we have a lot going on in here today.

Stork: I can still see that food in my head. I feel sorry for your DH, You’re going to have that poor man begging on his knees for some more of that lol. Thank you for trying to scare that evil af away but she is a bold lady as she showed up today.

Garfie: I do not mind. I am an open book. I went to the doctor today to do a pregnancy test and start the IUI procedure. Since Af showed her face today we already knew that we didn’t conceive this month (no need for the pg test). So the Dr. was going to have me start clomid on cd 5 this cycle but dh was missing one blood test. Now we will have to wait until next cycle for our 1st IUI/clomid. This month we will try natural again fx.

Posting these for Sweetz as her comp is on the fritz!

Sweetz, I still say girl just to be contrary

LPJ- Sorry you're feeling icky. I TOTALLY understand how you feel. Ugh!!!!!!! I hope you all that disappears by the time you get to 2nd trim. Just hang in there. 2-3 more weeks!

Sweetz- Beautiful bump! That looks like how I'm carrying. I want to say girl just to be different too, but I'm thinking boy now based on the pics. Can't wait til your update later today!

Storked- Packing is soooo boring and tedious. I totally understand. All my friends say just hire packers! I'm still looking for their donations for that one! When are you leaving?

BayBee- Thanks for your response. The Dr. hasn't said anything about my weight. But I was slightly underweight before I got pregnant. So in my mind, I know I need to gain at least 20 pounds. I'm trying, but I just don't have a big appetite! Yay to being a blueberry!

Hi Sirbaby!

Sweetz! hurry up!

Congrats!!! I love baby boys😍

I have some depressing news. I have to have a D&C tomorrow after all. There is some pesky tissue hanging around and they want to get it out!! At least after tomorrow ill know its over for good.

oh thts bad cant they give you a pill to bring it out.. i am sure they know best though. hope u recover sooooooon dear

 

[shefali83]

Hi All,

I was just wondering how you long on average everyone waited to try again after their loss. Just found out yesterday that we lost the baby at 6weeks3days although I was about 9 weeks. I know it's up to us, and we'll see how long it takes my body to bounce back after the d&c, but I'm just trying to get a feel for how this might work.

Glad to see that people get good news after this.

Thanks for your input.

Hey
So sorry for your loss i had a mmc which was induced medically. i started trying rightaway i.e from from my first ovulation but it ended in a chemical. u are more fertile after a mc they say. but after d&c the docs usually ask you to wait for 2-3 cycles i think. there are ladies here who have had d&c. i am sure they ll be able to guide you better.. good luck

 

[shefali83]

Hi to all ladies how r u all?

AFM: i am almost 2 days late. guess my cycle is messed up due to the surgery and then the chemical last month. so desperately waiting for af.. so ironical isnt it cant wait to ttc again!!

 

[garfie]

Morning Ladies

congrats sweetz a baby boy - a mamas boy - no wonder DH is pissed you will have your very own protector, boys are awesome I have two so I should no

Storked - Glad Kitty is feeling better - I didn't realise either you were on meds I knew you were on aspirin for your blood what's the others

Shefali - Sorry AF has gone MIA - I'm sure she will show her ugly face soon

Never - Aw having a baby is soooooo stressful and sometimes the men just don't get it - I guess cause their not kept up on an evening needing the loo or are the ones with their head down the toilet glad you worked it out hope the spotting has stopped

Leather - How are you cycle buddy

Ok ladies will try and do more personals later but need to tell you how I got on yesterday:-

After waiting an hour (good old NHS) in a room full of pregnant mummies I finally got seen he took my history - examined my tummy, then did an internal oooooouuuuccccchhhhiiiiieeee if I thought my endo was gone oh my he certainly touched it

Anyway he gave me 3 options to help cure the endo, he was very good and seemed interested in my charts but his main concern was the pain so the 3 options were:-

1. Have another laproscopy (I've had 5) so could be dangerous and possible inconclusive as the endo could be to far up

2. Take some tablets to bring on the menapause for 6 months - no guarantee of fertility ever returning.

3. Hysterectomy - bye bye any chance of ever having a baby.

The doc knew my plans so he brought in a senior doc who went through these three options more thoroughly - so I did what any girl would do I cried

He then said upon my examination I was feeling tender so it is a possibility that my endo was stopping me get preg (for ladies that don't know these go hand in hand) the cure for a while - 9 months pregnancy! so because of this he was referring my to a Fertility Specialist obviously no guarantees and I may end up with one of the three options anyway

So ladies I feel like I haven't been thrown on the scrap heap and today feel a lot lighter so not only hopefully I will get my endo under control I may also be in a better position to conceive

6DPO today - temp dropped - slight bleed (but that could be from yesterdays poking) also had af type cramping this morning so guess I will just have to wait it out

In the meantime I have a lot to be grateful for my two lovely (most of the time) boys, a loving husband, a gorgeous home, my health (sort of) and my Avon (keeping me sane)

So I felt my meeting was positive but kinda last chance saloon

[lpjkp]

Oh wow Garfie, what a rollercoaster day that was for you!!!! After reading the 3 options, I thought "oh noo.." and felt really sad for you, then my heart lifted so much to read that you've not been brushed aside and you've got the go ahead for a fertility specialist...you'll be in the best hands for the best pregnancy chances now, and that's absolutely fantastic! I'm so thrilled for you! It's also so fantastic that you've got such a wonderful hubbie, having such a fantastic loving family already can only make things more relaxing...you've got the perfect base to add to that family xx

 

[garfie]

Aw thanks LP - I gotta admit when he gave me them 3 options I felt doomed but then even though I have probably got a bit of a journey I feel happier today

The strange bleed tiniest bit has now stopped so must be from his poking

How's your pregnancy going - sorry you may have said I don't manage to get on here as often as I would like but I still try and stalk



X

 

[runnergrl]

Heading back for D&C now. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers ladies.

 

[garfie]

Runner - Aw hun good luck BIG hugs see you later

[lisalee1]

Shefali- Isn't it crazy that the ONE time you want AF to come on time, it doesn't show??? Hopefully it'll be soon so you can get it over with. Do you plan to start TTC this cycle?

Garfie- It's wonderful that your doctors are taking your desire to conceive seriously and they're referring you to a fertility specialist. I wonder if IUI could bypass the issues that endo is giving you. Do you know? Either way, I know you're happy to finally have some real options. You mentioned a slight bleed after the examination. Do you have this issue with sex and the insertion of tampons (if you use them)? If that's too personal, you DON'T have to answer that last question.

 

[garfie]

Lisalee - to personal what is to personal here - sometimes during sex I have a bit of pain but nothing like yesterday Never have problems with tampons.

Not sure about IUI is that not on the NHS - it's my age you see and the fact I already have two children which would (I suppose rightly so) stop me from getting funding. So I am being referred as I have endo which is causing pain and as a by line stopping me from possibly conceiving

Look at you how far on you are how are you feeling today.



X

 

[HisGrace]

Garfie - Wow what a day you had. I'm so happy they are sending you to a fertility specialist. I hope everything works out for you.

BayBeeEm - My spotting has been gone for about a week now!

 

[Leather3280]

Good morning all! Anybody else feel like they need a

Hey Garfie: I was sad as well when I read the three options they have you. But so over the moon for you that your staying positive. Right now I'm like thinking "wow Garfie is very strong I would be like like a if that were me, but than I'm not very strong mentally, I'm much stronger physically. I'm so encouraged by you my cycle buddy that you are such a positive person. For me it's very awesome to be in contact with like you

Ok so I'm officially in my tww, today is 3 DPO for me so will see what happens in the next few days to a week from now.

Anyone have symptoms this early, if you did what were they, if not when did you start having symptoms.

Hey Sheeee: is it still possible you could be prego or do you think this month is out for you, my f are definitely x for you.

AFM: Well again today I was really warm(as in sweating) this morning. The only two differences are that I was actually not as "naked as a jay bird" under my night gown and my temp. was the highest this morning than it has been this whole cycle like yesterday was third highest at 97.45 and today the highest at 98.12.
