Need a TTC buddy

[BabyDreamer82]

Its nearly midday here, Im holding my wee in for as long as I can - Im nearly up to 3 hours.
I dipped another test in the same wee about 4 hours later, the wee was very cold - my bathroom is like an ice box -Im not sure if I see something - Im thinking its just the shadow. But that first test def has a line. I wish I hadnt checked it. Ive had lines after the time-limit before.

My FRER still havent arrived! Damn Aussie mail system!!(It has to be Aussies fault, not NZ) 'Bloody Aussies'!!

What amount of hcg do the tests you are using say they detect?

(I heard that you should use pee that is a bit fresh for best results - I think they recommended within a half hr -15 min. I guess the hcg may not be detected as well after it has sat awhile that is probably more so the case for early preg detection)

I am soooo awake - but need to sleep - got to be up super early mon morn - so need to get on a reg schedule

Yikes - Babydreamer - I just saw there was an earth quake in NZ in Christchurch. Where are you? The news said no fatalities - which is good. It happened at dawn - must have been scary...

 

[MinneGirl]

You okay BabyDreamer? Hope the quake didn't affect you. Also, FX'd SOOOOOOOOO very tight for you that this is your month. Those darn tests with postives after the time limit really mess with you. I've gotten them too as you know.

As for me, we went to the state fair last night-which is basically a million overweight people eating tons of disgusting, fattening food--so we joined right in We went with some friends and had a good time. Although I made the mistake of going on a few of the rides and they made me sick as a dog..had to leave the fair early as I thought I was going to lose my marbles. I also couldn't muster up any Bd'ing, so the party will HAVE to get started today. Luckily, DH is here and doesn't know it yet, but I plan to jump him soon

Here is the plan this month: CD9, CD11, CD12, CD13, CD14 And no OPK's...but I will watch for the EWCM to confirm what is going on.

Love you girls!

Minne

Hey girls, yea Im fine, luckily Im in the North Island, It was a bad day down south yesterday. The first morning I dont catch the news - I got through nearly half the day before realising what had happened. We are so lucky we didnt lose any lives in it, but then we had a small plane crash that killed 9.

Minne I chuckled when you said you joined the fatties!

So Ive had one of these stupid tests for the last few cycles, you would think I would learn NOT to read them after the time-limit.
Ive done another one this morning, but I dont think there is anything

 

[MinneGirl]

Thank goodness you are okay babydreamer. for the BFN. It is still early though

 

[LaRockera]

Hi guys.

Babydreamer, good to hear you're all good hon. I'm sorry for your BFN, but perhaps it's still early? Let's hope so.

Say, CedarWood, so has the actually gotten you, or is this early spotting?

MinneGirl, well, LOL. Now that you mention extra fat, let me tell you that both I and DH have put our share of extra weight on. Greece, home-cooked food, delicious desserts... yum yum I guess it will be diet time when we return to the UK.

Sequeena - how are you hon?

Okay, here's some news from my front.

These last few days I've been really stressed. Anyhow, hubby and I agreed that we would use conceive plus from now on, and he'll also go on a vit. I think it's worth giving it a shot, if there's any chance the vits can ameliorate our spermies.

From my part, no more alcohol. I'm quitting it altogether, and I'll stick to me usual one cup of coffee per day.

I'm also thinking of starting reflexology sessions from October onwards. They may make me relax and shut up.

Sorry for being a bit egocentric these days, guys. I've just really been out of control.

 

[sequeena]

for you hun it must be so stressful at the minute

I'm under a lot of stress too. Got my court case coming up at the end of the month, got a lot of crap going on in life too and I need new meds Just feel like everything is piling on top of me.

You've been through so much. You deserve the best, and soon!

Thanks for the hug. And thanks for reminding me that I really need to shut up and don't make up imaginary problems.

 

[MinneGirl]

Yes, as my doctor put it best to me "don't borrow trouble"...I keep reminding myself of this.

Sequeena, I hope you get out from under your "pile" soon, girl. God knows this journey is stressful enough without added stresses from elsewhere.
Please vent to us as much as you need to...we are pretty good at cheering people up...at least I think

LaRockera, I just noticed we are cycle buddies You are one day ahead of me.
Just think we could be BUMP buddies too...maybe it is both of our lucky months!

Thanks hun xxx

Holy crap my street just had 2 powercuts It's the first time I've been home alone and I didn't know what to do I managed to reset the electric just in case (then realise it was in fact the whole street not just me) and then I just sat in the dark

Uh-huh.

Yeah, I've noticed it too. I guess we came close because both our cycles got screwed at some point or the other. I like that though. Is your ticker spot on? Mine is, but I reset it monthly.

Have you started BDing then? I did today. I've also drank litres of grapefruit juice and used conceive plus. I said I wouldn't try things but I changed my mind. Whether they make any actual difference or not, they do make me feel better.

Oh! And I'm back on my OPKs. I get the darkest lines I ever got, so I must be close.

 

[LaRockera]

Don't be daft! Problems are problems!

I know, but I'm very talented in creating trouble out of nowhere. I've been thinking, right? Doc said there was no need to worry.

So WTH am I moaning about???

To be fair I kinda feel better now.

Hormones...

Yep, we will start today too I haven't noticed any EWCM yet, but I haven't gone on a macgyver hunt yet today I am taking EPO and my prenatal and yep, drinking some grapefruit juice too

 

[LaRockera]

Are you like, scraping?

I can't. Feels weird. So it's all I observe on my panties, or the loo paper.

Yeah, I usually just look down there and can see some hanging out (gross, I know), and then yes on the loo paper or panties is all for me typically I don't get the whole "feeling your cervix" thing...don't know where the heck my cervix is!

 

[CedarWood]

Babydreamer - bummer - did you see what I wrote about disapation times?

LR - sounds like a good plan - try not to let ttc stress you out - is counterproductive

Sequeena - is that one of you furbabies on your avatar?

LR and Minnie - hope you girls have a productive cycle!

AFM - got proper AF yesterday - is ok but hope I O based on when AF came - not when it should have come... If I O on sched will miss out this month as sperm provider on a biz trip....

Well guys, just a quick update, This arvo's tests (I did 2) were BFN, so Im pretty sure it was just a big nasty evap. again.
Cedar I did read that post, thankyou. I dont know what level these tests are, I just use the last of the ones that say 'from 7-10 days after conception'. The other one is a first response dip stick -they say from as early as the first day of missed period.

My phone just rang & when I answered it some woman says 'who is this?' Huh, who the hell are you, you rang me! You dont ring people & ask 'who is this'. Rude cow.
I made her tell me who she was first. It was wrong number.
I think I might be a bit tense.
