Hi ladies,
sorry finally got a chance to get on here.....
Froliky - I am so sorry hun for your loss
It must be so difficult 
and I hope you are surrounded by loved ones.... 
Sending you massive
Angelsmommie - you poor thing.... what a heartbreaking story.... I am so sorry for your loss Welcome to our group and I hope that you will get your forever BFP very soon.
Pebble - so glad you don't have to do surgery for now
You must be going through hell not knowing I hope the meds do the trick... Good luck hun
Yes re: acupuncture -I am planning on continuing that for IVF for sure.... (was only going every 3 weeks recently)
Lils - I hope you are feeling better today..... I think your idea re: Bding every other day from start of EWCM until temp rise is a good one.... I don't want to do the OPKs anymore either - although I am thinking that if the IVF doesn't work - I'm done with TTC.... I need to get off this rollercoaster and get on with life. I know what you mean about the freakin' fever/sick temps affecting the chart - this morning I plugged in my temp and it shot WAY UP on the chart - it was hilarious!!! then under "specifics" in FF -I said I had "fever" and "Illness" and somehow it magically adjusted it on it's own????
Did you know it did that??? It didn't even make it an open circle either - it's a closed one? Anyway just thought I would mention for all the sickies out there!!! 
One trick I've noticed about taking the Rescue Remedy liquid drops is when I put the 4 drops on my tongue -I take a deep breath before swallowing...and somehow it seems to relax or work better. And then continue to breathe deeply for at least 10 seconds. I have heard people using more than 4 drops.... but maybe it would be better if you spaced it?? Ie....by half hour....or something.... Not sure -but really good question!
I'm still praying that this is a good cycle for you Good luck on the fiscal year end too
Re: the Flu Shot - you would never catch me dead - getting one of those!
That is a whole other story - but let's just say that I know a lot of people who have gotten even more sick after getting one and people that were not usually prone to getting that sick. Also it's based on last year's flu strain isn't it???? That's just 2 of the reasons... Sorry if I'm offending anyone - that is just MY 2 cents....
So I'll take this bug and fight it off....
Chicken - wow thanks for your aromatherapy advice! The orange oil I have is derived from the orange peel not the flower (sorry I got it wrong)- I think it's "Sinensis" (latin name) So that's sweet orange right? I though the inhaler going directly to the brain sounded a bit scary - especially when TTC...but to be honest - I haven't really used essential oils much in the last few years because I've been a bit paranoid.... except for lavender on tissue when I have a headache (sniffing it now and then seems to ease the headache or stress). I see that you did a test today and it was negative... Sorry hun I hope perhaps it was early?? Good luck hun
Moon - don't worry we've all had those fears about sperm not meeting egg at the right time - being there too early and what not..... It's what makes TTC so freakin' stressful and it never helps EWCM either.... I had to start using PreSeed cause I never had enough EWCM - (was just lasting a day) - but last few months it's gotten better with Evening Primrose Oil and drinking grapefruit juice before ovulation. We have been using PreSeed now for over a year and still nothing -so I don't think that is our problem - but you may want to try it (if you haven't already?)
Butterfly, HA, Purps, Asry, Lady H, Manu - Hi huns!!!! hope you are doing okay....
Dr.H - your chart is looking good so far Don't worry FF takes time to get used to....but once you are used to it it's easy (I just plug it in as soon as I get up -on my ipod touch (mobile app) and it's super easy. If I had to write it down somewhere I'm sure I would lose it or forget it.... Good luck this month hun!!!
Mirium - I'm sorry your appointment with the RE wasn't what you were hoping and you wished there were more answers... But it sounds like they did 'clean up' a lot and I'm hoping and wishing that this will make all the difference when you are ready to TTC again.... It sounds like you have been through so much If it makes any difference when I did my HSG...my 2nd tube took much much longer to spill out than the first one....I was told years ago that that side was probably blocked -but then when I did the HSG (with xray) he told me it was open... so the quote about there being one tube that is 'slower' makes sense!! Good luck hun!!
Pad - how are you doing today - STEP AWAY FROM THE SALTY VINEGAR WOMAN !!!! You are feeding your bad bacteria in your gut with what it loves the most (fermented stuff) -that is what I meant when I brought up Candida... You don't want the bad bacteria to outweigh the good bacteria.... Take some probiotic capsules at least!
Hope everything else is good ..... and when does DH come home??
Hello to everyone I missed.....
AFM - my temp was way up this morning but FF corrected (as I mentioned) when I told it I had fever/illness in the 'specifics' section. I still have a bit of fever, but work so busy couldn't stay home.... Hope tomorrow is better cause I'm supposed to go to a concert tomorrow night. I really hope my sore throat is gone by then - never been to a concert when I can't scream! May be difficult
Have a good day tomorrow ladies..... need to get some
