TTC #1 -- Need a buddy!

[MissSazra]

Good luck Sideways, it's good you've got someone who's helping you out now, I hope my specialist is as good when I book up next month.

Hi All
Hope eveyone had a great Christmas

Mine was very conflicted as we had to take our little kitty, Momma, into the vet on Christmas day, and while we couldn't bing ourselves to do anything that day we had to take her back on Dec 26 to be euthanized. We were exhausted from crying but it was the right decision.

Miss Sazra - sorry about AF - sounds like you did everything right, so best of luck this round.

Glad some of you got to enjoy some Holiday drinks - I used the medication excuse once But I have no symptoms of pregnancy so I don't think anyone was suspicious.

We told our parents on Christmas Eve (and took secret video of their response!) - it was fun and they are more excited than us!

Well, more visiting to do over the next week, so I'll check back in soon

oooh secret video I like that idea xx

Thanks, MissSazra...

Hope everyone is doing ok today. Just took my LAST Provera tablet. If I don't get AF tonight, back to the doctor I go


SM - I am so sorry about your kitty!! That's at least 3 of this who have lost a little furbaby this year

 

[flyingduster]

Ohh SM, loosing a furbaby is sooo hard...! ((hugs)) I can't imagine the heartache when my girl leaves! I've only had, and lost, two cats in my life and now have Jasmine (and DH has her sister Freyja), but Jasmine is one of those 'heart cats' that has entangled herself around my heart more than you realise is possible and the simple idea of her passing is enough to make my heart skip a beat and desperately want to go find her to cuddle her... ((hugs))

You're right Flying - there are some special pets that are just so hard to let go, and ours was like that too. My eyes felt full of sand yesterday after all the tears..

Good luck at getting AF Sideways (weird to say!)

 

[kittiecat]

never thought I'd say this on here but good luck on getting AF Sideways!xx

 

[flyingduster]

*sigh*. I tested this morning. . I know I know, it was expected. I'm not *upset*, but i am disappointed, cos of COURSE I still had a little hope within me that it MIGHT be a BFP still. Ahh well. I expect a temp dip in the next day or three, and AF to hit me around new years. Bring on 2011 aey!

Sideways, I too hope you get your AF soon! Sounds so counter productive in a TTC forum, but wow, how long as it been now since you had AF!?? I wonder why sometimes our bodies do these things?? *sigh*, good luck!!!! I'm hoping AF comes along sooner rather than later now too, so I can get on with the next cycle already! Hey, we might hit AF around the same time (though I hope yours is already coming really...)

If we don't catch it in Jan... Feb is our anniversary month and we have a week off together right around the time I'm likely to be O-ing (well, as easy as I can tell 2 cycles ahead with not-overly-regular cycles) so perhaps THAT is our month?? I'm still shooting for Jan tho! LOL!

 

[Sideways 8]

Hey everyone!! LOL I know it sounds so funny to be hoping for AF! Today is CD71!!!

Anyway I talked to the doctor - well, his nurse - and she told me that sometimes it can take up to a full 7 days after finishing the progesterone regimen, so if AF doesn't show up by next Tuesday, I am to call back. Then again, I am to call if I do get AF anyway, so I can get an appointment for CD21 lab work.

Flying, sorry about the but don't you give up until the shows up!

 

[flyingduster]

thanks sideways, though the BFN really was only confirmation for what I already figured, it wasn't the right timing to be pregnant this time around, so I have accepted that I'm not, and looking forward to next month...

 

[kittiecat]

oh god sideways....71 days! i'd be going spare!x

 

[MissSazra]

Hi everyone!

So, I have contacted the gynecologist, she's on holiday until the 10th, so unless I can get a late appointment after work, I will have to wait until the next school holiday which is the end of February! But I feel more positive that I started the process, and by February we could be pregnant on our own anyway, so would save me a heap of money! lol

Hope everyone is ok! Xx

 

[Sideways 8]

Everything good here, MissSazra. Still no AF, not much else to update. Except that the forms for the 2010 federal taxes have been published, and I did a quick estimate on how much tax refund we'll get..... so far it's looking like we'll OWE about $9,000 I hope I had a math error somewhere. With that number in mind, I'd need at least 5 kids at our income level to get any money back!!! grrrrrr

 

[rosababy]

SM, I am SO sorry about your kitty. I can't imagine how hard that would be. I've always had lots of pets, and it never gets easier, does it?

Flying, sorry to hear about the BFN. Good to hear that your spirits are up though, BFNs usually take the wind out of me.

MissSazra, I've heard tons of stories of women who finally make doctor appointments, and end up getting pregnant before their appointment! FX for you!!

Sideways, I can't BELIEVE you're still on that damn cycle! I'm so sorry! I really hope you get AF soon. You're right...that does sound bad to say on a ttc forum!

As for me, I'm CD 11. Time to start bd'ing! I haven't been temping, since we were traveling so much, but it helped keep my mind off of ttc, which is exactly what i needed. I'll temp long enough for FF to confirm ovulation, and then i'll stop. the dips and spikes really take it out of me. I'm what you'd call a worry-wart.

I'm so glad to be back home with internet! I missed my ttc friends!

 

[rosababy]

So my cousin just announced that she's having another baby. This will be #4, and she's my age. My neighbor and good friend just told me she's pregnant (we have been ttc buddies), AND my little brother's wife is having a baby in 3 weeks. Everyone around me gets pregnant. Just not me. Okay, pity party is over. Just had to get that out.

 

[Sideways 8]

CD1, yall! I gotta go for a bit, if you want more details (you may not, they're kind of gross and TMI, who knows why on earth I posted it), read my journal!

 

[kittiecat]

yaaaay!!! go you! xxx (never thought I'd be happy knowing someone on here had AF come to visit ) x

 

[Sideways 8]

I feel a little better now. I knew the symptoms of AF induced by progesterone would be bad, but not THAT bad! At least now I can move along.

Good luck to rosa for the sticky bean!! Don't feel alone when you say everyone around you is pregnant. It's that way for a lot of us, including me! Our time will come soon, I just know it! I'm hoping this cycle is it for us, too. If not, moving on to Clomid. If you pray, please pray for us!

 

[MissSazra]

Yay for Sideways, let's hope it's the start of something really good! Xx

 

[rducky]

Sideways! Yay for you! Just read your journal...I hope you feel better, I'm just glad AF arrived for you!
