Amy congratulations on the nephew hun, hope some of that sticky rubs off on you.

Emma thanks chick, doesn't make me feel like such a freak

OPK will be started tomorrow but am not hopeful. After the crap few weeks we have had I just want to crawl into my bed and hide all weekend. Having family issues too which really isn't helping

 

[gilmore85]

Danielle looks like you need them

 

[pink80]

We need more...

Thanks for the hugs lovelies, I am currently cheering myself up by doing a cherry blossom design on my nails. Just going to wait an hour until the base coat is 100% dry (have an awful habit of rushing and messing it all up) and then completing the actual branches and blossoms with a glass of malibu and coke

Emma any other promising symptoms today??? xxx

Danielle

 

[pink80]

Sounds lovely Danielle I wish I could do my nails, but I'm rubbish at it

I took some more tests this morning (pics in journal) and they are darker - symptoms wise, I've got;

Strange twinges in abdomen and ovaries
Runny Nose
Loads of CM
Waves of Nusea on and off
Tiredness (I'm soooooooo tired !!!!)
Moody and emotional

I'm trying not to think about it - at least not until after af is due (if I get that far) but when I do think about it I freak out a bit

 

[Feisty Fidget]

Thanks Rachael

Emma the fact that they are darker and that you didn't just use IC is a sure sign hun and I personally think that because you got a so early at 9dpo this is a good strong, healthy baba - Stressing is normal but just try and take it one day at a time. Don't be thinking of it in trimester's or weeks, just days. It may seem daunting to do it this way but lots of PAL ladies find it easier

Okay so nails are on hold until after triple chocolate muffin and tea break

 

[MummyCat]

Popping in to give you all some

Emma... HUGE congratulations ... there will be loads more BFP's in this thread, this is just the start!

Keeping everything crossed for you all, hoping that your long wait is almost over!

I second what Mallory (CajunBabe) said and sometimes I just wish I could hand you all a BFP and make you pregnant with the wave of a wand (ala Harry Potter etc)

for you all!

 

[Rachael1981]

Hope you're going to share that chocolate muffin!!

I've given up with the CBFM and FF this cycle. FF doesn't know what to think and the CBFM still has me on highs, but I'm sure I ov'd on CD14 and the CBFM missed the LH surge

 

[Feisty Fidget]

*hands half the muffin to Rachael* Enjoy!

Rachael you are not filling me with confidence on the CBFM I think a stress free cycle with help hun

Thanks for the Cat, hope the pregnancy is going well?

Emma do you want me to change you to a on the first thread or would you rather I wait? xxx

 

[pink80]

Not yet if you don't mind Danielle - I just don't feel ready, think I would like to leave until I'm at least officially 'late' xxx

 

[Rachael1981]

Thanks for the muffin, yum

I think me losing weight is interfering with my hormones Feisty, that and I'm sure I only have a short LH surge so the CBFM is missing it as it only tests FMU

 

[Feisty Fidget]

Emma that's fine hun, just give me a poke when your ready and I will alter it to share your amazing news

Rachael the weight loss could be a reason that the CBFM has missed it I to had a short LP last cycle so maybe we are all in sympathy with each-other

Am embarrassingly tipsy on one shot of malibu and coke spaced out over a few hours! What on earth is wrong with me

 

[Feisty Fidget]

Eeeeeeeeeeek! Second line on OPK with sore back and cramping! This may just be a residual amount of clomid left over doing this but it could also mean I am fixed! I guess we better start on the bedding schedule again

We wont be telling the GP about this and I wont mention it to the fertility specialist unless they mention testing to check. I still believe that something could be wrong and fully feel that the NHS should refer us to a FS to make up for not referring us over a year ago when they should of and for now over-prescribing my clomid.

How is everyone else doing?

 

[joey300187]

ahh fiesty does sounds like ur ovulating will keep my fingers crossed for you, be ace if you catch the eggy this month so u can stick two fingers up to the nhs people who failed you massivly!! xxx

 

[alaricsmom]

That's SO exciting Danielle!!

 

[Rachael1981]

Good luck Feisty! FX'd for you!

I'm ok - 5dpo I think. Nothing to report, no symptoms or anything. I think I'm going to ditch everything and just stick to NTNP after this month, it's all getting too stressful.

 

[leylak]

Rachael, good luck at NTNP!
Feisty you are ovulationg on your own! I hope this cycle will be it but if not I want to reconmmend figs. A friend of mine took 2ish years to conceive. She was ovulating but her egg quality didn't seem to be good enough. even highest dose of clomid didn't seem to work. Then she heard that figs are good for eggs so she ate two dried figs everyday until ov. along with clomid and got the best size eggs (she was being monitored). And got preg that cycle!!!
I tried figs too before we found about male factor and I can swear by them. I had nice high and consistent temps and I think it extended my LP by one day (and thought I was pg and had the disappointment thing etc. ).

Good luck!! I never used the monitors or checked my temps. I just went off of when I "thought" I ovulated. I hope using the monitor helps you!
