Thanks for the get well wishes ladies, i really hate being sick, i am not sick often and when i do get sick it drives me nuts lol. This one is weird, almost seems like its not going to go full blown, we will see, maybe i will get lucky and get over this quick.
 
Hey ladies:

PMAs...
NCMs
Whatevs ladies...

LOL. You all are funny.

Hoping the best for your BFP Lava! :hugs:

MJ: I totally understand. I was off the whatevs train until Sunday night because I was starting to obsess about how Clomid delays AF, the side effects, etc. But you can always hop back on the train, which I did yesterday.

Butterfly: Your print is gorgeous. Do you sell your art online, or only in galleries?

BBLVE: Welcome to that whatevs group--there's always room for more! :)

FM: I so want to be in bed today--if my boss weren't off for the rest of the week, I would have taken off, I think.

Carole: Good you stood up for your own health. I know we always want to trust the professionals, yet at the end of the day, it's our body, right? And no one is going to stand up for it like we will.

MissyT: :hugs: Until you see AF, it's not over! Symptom spotting is impossible, one way or the other. You know I know how it is with BM issues, although I have a good relationship with mine in general (in part because I give her 5 ft and a long pole). Well, on the upside, the "curse" might be was broken, LOL-I didn't get AF this past weekend while SD was here. :happydance: Of course, she's back this weekend, so...:wacko: :shrug: There's still time, LMAO!!!!

OMM: Hope you feel better!

Hi MA, Skye, Lynn, and Never!

A long AFM: I've again adjusted my ticker, LOL, as no AF yet. I don't want to say I'm "late" because I don't know when or if I OV this cycle. Based on the last cycle, I started testing CD17 (last month I got a + CD18 and had a 29 day cycle) and got only "-" on digital OPK from CD17-CD20. Stopped after that, as I figured I didn't OV. Research has since shown me some women don't OV at all, and some very late on Clomid,which would make me not late at this point, and some early, which I would have missed testing for. Still thinking I might have some sort of cyst, as I still have pulling and electric feeling on my right side--not painful, just noticeable. Also been suffering from mild restless legs since yesterday. Also apparently Clomid mimics PMS/pg symptoms, so no help there either, and I've felt between "lousy" and "OK" for the past 11 days or so. I've been going to restroom prepared for AF for the past four days, but it's been CM to this point.

So I just wait...and wait...and wait until the Itch is here! Whatevs!!! :coffee:

So sorry you're sick! If you're just at the beginning stages of being sick, take grapefruit seed extract. You have to mix it with juice, because it's bitter as hell, but my DH swears by it (he has been in the natural foods/supplements business for 14 years). It really does work. The first sign of a sniffle or scratchy throat and we take it, a few drops in some juice 2-3 times/day. I can't believe I'm saying this because I'm sure the fates will descend upon me with the plague as soon as I do, but I haven't been sick not once in the past year. We always keep a bottle of it in the house.

Feel better! :hugs:

Oh thank you so much for that advice, i will go get some right away!! I am one of the unlucky ones too, i cant take any of the cold meds, they all give me the shakes, and then i feel even worse. So when i get a cold i take Zicam, or Airborne, and Excedrines and pray for it to get over with quick. And i sure hope you dont bring the plague on you lol. Although i have to say just last week i was telling someone i never get sick and bam, i have a cold now lol.
 
Echinacia is awesome... it herbal so hopefully you can take it Onmy... give it a go... but only if you are def not preggers as it boosts your immune system... and only take it for a max of 14 days

Thanks Nikki - I have started to put some prints up for sale on Saatchi online:
https://www.saatchionline.com/AzureArt
but mostly sell at art fairs and in a few galleries.

All sounds very complex with your cycle - hope you manage to figure it out and even get a BFP if you are actually late! I don't know anything about clomid apart from a friend of mine took it and said it drove her a bit nuts, poor thing.
 
Hi Ladies -

Just checking in. I'm so glad to have found you all - you just crack me up and really help keep me from feeling like an alien with three heads. Which is sometimes the look I get from people when trying to share.:haha:

Carole - :thumbup:

Missyt - :hugs: FX'd :af:

OMM - I hope you feel better soon. :hugs: I was thinking maybe tblsp. of warm honey with a bit of lemon in it might help your throat and chest feel a bit calmer - maybe give it a go?

Lava - How are you? Sounds like you are going to have a lovely lunch, enjoy your day!

Pad - OMG, you just crack me up.

FM - Your trip will be here before you know it, just focus on that.

Hope all you ladies have a wonderful day!!:flower:
 
Nikki,
You are so good to not test! I keep running to the bathroom to check for AF. I feel so bloated and this Atlanta heat is awful. I tested again this morning. The line was slightly darker. Talked to my nurse. she said the trigger shot should be outof my system by now but it depends on the womans's metabolism so it's too tricky to know. She offered to reschedule my blood test to tomorrow morning but I declined b/c either way I have to wait ... either for a BFP/BFN/AF or beta results & scans. I am petrified to go to the bathroom to wipe, to test for fear the line will be lighter or gone, and don't want Ro head the nurse call me with bad news. I feel sick to my stomach. where is the Whateves Wagon ... I need to jump back on.

LOL, no bouncing out for you, we have seat belts, and will strap you in if necessary lol. Alllllllllll aboard!!!!!!! the whatever train is comming around, anybody that wants just hop on board!!
 
I need seat belts and air safety bags! I love the Whateves Wagon! This made me laugh so hard! Love it!!!! All aboard. Do y'all know that song by the O'Jays, "Love Train"? I'm singing that song in my head:

People all over the world (everybody)
Join hands
Start a love train, love train

But with the words

Start a Whavers train, a whatevs train!
 
Just came home visiting a friend today. Swollen again cause I haven't rested and I'm super tired. But I feel like posting since there is a few juicy stuff going on in here...

Carole good for you, well done. The dr is working on our body after all. Hope the change of meds would work and you would have your wonderful sticky bean :hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs:

FM I wanted to say what MA said but I thought it might be a bit too early but OHSS is actually a good sign. I have everything crossed for you [-o<[-o<[-o<[-o<[-o< I have a really good feeling that soon there will be more than few BFP's here :)

By the way Debs good to know I'm not the only airy one in here. I actually had to sit next to a candle away from DH for a few days. It got so bad that I couldn't stand being with myself anymore :) HHHahahahahahahaha!!!!! Actually it subsided when OHSS got less but comes back again if I don't rest and get swollen. And Chris it's a bit much of a thing to ask the DH's to sit there and smell it up really :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Missy, AF cramping is also positive actually. Sit tight:hugs: Loads and loads of sticky baby vibes for you. Don't forget you are in the positive circle babe. As for ex she sounds like trouble. What does she get out of spreading a rumour? Just the thrill. How sad. Don't mind any of that or your stepson. You are not in a fertility competition with anyone sweety. You will have your baby when the time is most perfect for both you ad husband and all this will be forgotten :hugs::hugs:

Chris hope you get better soon. Sounds like a bad virus poor thing.

Lava a darker line and you are still wondering? Here's my little mini dance for tomorrow, just to give the line a bit of encouragement :happydance: (Don't mind me though don't wanna pressurise u or anything :) Hahahaaaaha!!!

Nikki opk testing on day17 sounds a bit too late. On a 28 day cycle you would theoretically ov on d14 bt you start testing d11-12 so 29 d cycle starting d11-12 makes sense. I'm sure you would have ovulated especially wit the clomid. I am loving this Whatever's club by the way. ;)

Baby4mj, that sounds like a golden trick. Where do you get grapefruit seed extract, in a health shop? I'm so gonna try it next time I get sick. Actually my cousin told me another trick but is sounded a bit too yucky. U take a big onion, cut the top off, make a little pool inside and fill it with honey. Than you leave it for a day to let out the juice. And you drink that juice. Dunno if anyone heard of this. Apparently an American Indian trick.
OMG where did u get that funny Whatever's wagon" Hahahahahahahaha!!!!

By the way I'd avoid ecchinecia Debs if you have an overactive immune without being aware, it really isn't a good idea to have it while TTC.

Butterfly, woow, what a beautiful work :kiss:

BBive, yeah it is getting really funny this thread :)))

Girls, I'm off to bed early morning tomorrow for me and I'll travel on a sleeper train to Florence. Might be missing a few days. [-o<[-o<[-o<[-o< that there will be a few BFP's when I next hook up. xxxxxxx
 
Butterfly,
I love your paintings. I just checked out your website. Thank you for sharing. I love all the color. There is one that looks like a great big sea with breaching whales jumping out of the ocean and twisting in motion. Probably just my imagination seeing that image, but it is such a moving piece.

I also love your name. It is my MILs and when we first met she was so happy that I knew how to spell her name. With an A,not an O. :)

In the U.S. you can get it just about anywhere, but yes health/vitamin/homeopathic shops or organic grocery stores for sure. Online definitely. Being preggo, though, be sure to check with your doctor before taking it.
I think I'd rather suffer 8 of the 10 plagues before sucking back that fermented onion/honey combo!https://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t229/GILMAK_2007/vomit2-1.gif

Photobucket.com has loads of oddball smileys...you can find just about anything (including a "Whatevs Wagon"...:haha:). But seriously, anything. There are some sick smiley-makers out there. To demonstrate, I shall dedicate the following photobucket.com smiley to you and Deb:
