HI ladies,
Just a quick one to say hello and spread some hugs .
Thanks for all of yours
.
Pebble great work on HSG 
I know when I had mine the first one (Left ) was no problem but the 2nd one (right side) was very very slow to spill out but finally he said it was open (I thought he was going to say it was blocked as I watched the screen). I almost feel like that happens to many people where the first side is fine and quick but the second side takes forever to come out
. Hmmm could it be that the body tries to defend itself so it spasms or tightens up on the 2nd side? I know with my first test (which wasnt the xray HSG type they said the 2nd side could have either spasmed or was blocked)- but in the end this HSG with xray showed it was opened. Good luck hun with the results.
Dr H
Lady H hope you arrived safely home . And good luck is your amnio this week?
Sending hugs and luvs to you all
AFM had a rough last few days
Just when I thought I was getting stronger emotionally -I actually went downhill. Went to specialist last Thursday and have booked the needle biopsy for thyroid nodule - Dec.4th (thats next week) This fear of the worst has made getting through last week so much harder. Now I am getting sick again poor AD still has her bad cough and we are just passing the sickness back and forth in our household. Taking it day by day but Im so grateful to have you ladies

Argh - I just wrote out this long entry in my journal and lost it!!!! I hate it when that happens!! Let's see if I can write something here without deleting it!!!!
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!!
LadyH - so glad the amnio went well. Glad to hear you have time off and can get some good rest this week!
Fly - LOL ya I know what you mean about finally being ready for kids and not being able to make any! Keep trying though - it will be worth it. Lots and lots of babydust!!!
Nessaw - wish I could have had you and all the other ladies here over for Thanksgiving. The kids probably had a blast with the power outage, although I'm sure that was a lot of work for the teachers!! Hope you are doing well!
Greenleaf - hope things are getting better at work.
DrHouse -
Maddy - wow so much commuting time! I hope you're able to take some time during the drive to listen to music and relax a little. Hope the injections are going well.
Dash - so so sorry you're going through such a hard time. Huge hugs to you.
Pebble - very scary about the student!!! Hope you are all safe and sound. The university can be such an emotionally charged environment with professors working on tenure, grad students studying for prelim/comp exams etc.... Glad to hear you got through the HSG ok.
Lils - hope you had fun with your little sister and had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. It sounds like you had some wonderful relaxing time, which is very well deserved after such a busy week last week!!!! Hope the EWCM was put to good BDing use... wink wink!
Purps -
DrHouse, Dwrgi - the yams with marshmallows were DELICIOUS!!! I found this recipe online a few years ago, and have made it twice, and it is sooo good! I boil some yams, mash them up, add butter, brown sugar, an egg and cinnamon, and then put half of it in a casserole dish, top that with a layer of marshmallows, put the other half of the yam mixture on top of that, and bake it! The last 10 minutes I add a ton of marshmallows on top of hte yams.. they melt and brown up, and it is sooo good! Yams with marshmallows seems to be a Thanksgiving tradition for a lot of people... there are all sorts of recipes for them, and I'd highly recommend them!!
Hi Tiger, Smallhelen, Butterfly, Pad and all the other ladies here.
AFM - had a wonderful, relaxing weekend. AF finished on Friday, and it was a very heavy one with cramps, some tissue and blood clots (that seemed to be left over from the m/c). I think I'll be skipping this cycle. No more buckwheat muffins for me though... one week of them is enough!!! LOL. Hope everyone is having a good Monday. It will be a really busy week at work here!!!

yes, I'd say you are PG too!! LOL!!!! Totally understand about the denial, but it's ok if you enjoy it a little too!!

My, my, it was quiet on here! 
I know some of us are having a hard time lately, so here’s a round of Honestly, I was just too busy eating & 
for 4 days straight w/my lil sis…
Green – I don’t see that temp shift yet, so get to the
just in case it wasn’t a +OPK!!!
BF – great way to make me feel better!
loving the renos & hope you enjoyed the Mumford & sons concert 
Dwrgi – lovely to see that beautiful girl in your avatar! So, isn't that sorta like coming outta the closet? If it is, then Congrats! Much more in your journal, hope you are doing well after a nice weekend by the fire w/OH?
Purps - I have to get to your journal to catch up with you, but just wanted to hug you for all of your sweet comments & for sticking around & being a 35+ TTC#1 cheerleader! The Thanksgiving holiday is really only on Thursday, but that whole weekend seems to be a celebration. It's usually an all-day affair of watching football, cooking, eating & drinking, spending time with all of your loved ones – family & friends - & the main dinner is usually at 4pm-6pm or so. Everyone brings a dish, but usually stick to the traditional turkey, ham, mashed potatoes & gravy, stuffing, sweet potatoes (w/cinnamon, brown sugar, butter & marshmallows), green bean casserole (that BF, Dwrgi & Lady H would absolutely hate because its got the same sauce as biscuits n gravy & BF was mortified at the notion of white gravy ) & cranberry sauce. Then you have pecan pie, pumpkin pie, apple pie, pumpkin cheesecake, pumpkin ice cream, etc. for dessert. Then the next day is either a work day, or if you take it off or your employer allows you off, it is “Black Friday”. This is when millions (upon millions) of “brave souls” wake up at 3am & go to war at the malls, as all the good deals are then. So, Thanksgiving is for being thankful & loving everyone & then Black Friday you prepare to literally fist-fight someone for an ipod. 
You couldn’t pay me enough to shop on Black Friday! And then you have Thanksgiving weekend to spend with the family that just flew in to stay w/you, or start your Xmas shopping list or start decorating, etc. So, that’s the traditional Thanksgiving holiday. (whew!) I know it’s a bit long, but I love to hear about other people’s holidays/traditions too & want to know all the deets 
. Did I leave anything out ladies?
Pad – how you doing chick?
Dashka – Lol on the EWCM-beach comment! I put way more in your journal, but giving you the hugest
here too. I was hoping your biopsy would just be done that day, but no – you have to wait now. 
But stop googling the procedure! I have a rule throughout my 14(?) surgeries – I only want to know the risks & what to expect during recovery – period. If they want to tell me all of the gory details after, fine, but I really don’t want to know before (even though my eye Dr blurted it out this time 
). Just want to send you big for having a very rough time. I hope you feel better soon & get some much-needed 
. All of those things together is such an unforgiving combination . Please take care of yourself & get some rest & lots of loves from DH… 
Ness – I bet those kids loved that blackout. Hope you are taking good care of yourself
. Are you going to try this cycle or sit this one out?
LadyH – ooooh thank you for Caribbean
!!! There’s so many of us right now who are O’ing too 
. Hoping & praying for you with your appt. results!!!
Pebble – I think we were supposed to wind our scales back 10lbs last Thursday right? I need to… I hope you had a great one! Well, as for HSG it is all over & one tube is good . Your other tube may be ok, as well, just wait to see what she says. But, if it was blocked & you have a history of ectopic then I would think you’d have to do cycle monitoring to only TTC when you ovulate out of the left tube. It’s supposed to be every other month, but I’m not so sure it happens like that like clockwork, does anyone else know if that’s for sure? So, I’d think you’d have to monitor your cycle & go in & do u/s around O time so they can tell which one is about the blow. Otherwise, you could do IUI. Its very inexpensive (comparatively!) & you have shown that 
can meet egg & produce an embie, so that would be another option. But you may not need to go there… keeping FX for you , let us know what she says
DrH – LOL on the ice cream discount! See, ask & you shall receive right? BF just did that with concert tix – went up to a guy & just asked if he had any extras & he said yes, here & “Merry Christmas”.
Moon – what’s the difference between yams & sweet potatoes? Because we do the same recipe but with sweet potatoes (it really should be dessert, but it’s a veggie, so it’s a healthy dinner item, dammit!). Glad AF has come & gone. No more buckwheat muffins - ever? You must be relieved. Perhaps the Inositol (?) capsules would work just as good? How was your TG? I still can’t believe you made the whole dinner, you must love to cook (that’s quite a feat!!!). Hope your cycle goes by quickly & don’t work too hard .
Kismet – when do you get your
? Eeek, hate insomnia! 
And we are reiki masters, so we should have all of this down, right? No, I have to take Tylenol PM because my mind is always so wound up (& you can take it if pregnant – Class B med). Even tried meditation, reiki (many times), etc. but still can’t do it w/o Tylenol PM & I hate it… But there are worse things to take – you need to sleep though hun. Hope you catch that eggy soon!
OK, so I must be an EWCM-making machine because I am STILL going. Had a dry break, but its back! Just so odd to start at CD8 when O isn’t usually until CD21. I’ll just do my gf juice, EPO & Mucinex now & hope that I somehow catch it this week & that I am up to it (whenever it decides to show???). I’ll BD tonight since I have my eye surgery tomorrow morning. This one is at an actual hospital center & they will have to put me under, so it’s a 3.5-hour ordeal. It came up way too quickly. Ah, whatever, just don’t eat or drink & go in for a quick “nap” is how I’m looking at it. And I’ll just have to practice some good pirate sayings as I’ll have a nifty lil patch afterwards! Oooo, perhaps I'll have some Johnny Depp or Orlando Bloom-inspired EWCM too? This could work out good ladies
This is my final cycle before going IUI… Not sure when I’ll be back so have a great week ladies! Looks like a lot of O’s this week, so PLEASE pretty fairy bring us some magic Holiday/Caribbean
And to those having a hard time… & to everyone else!

Um, yeah, I think you are well “up the duff”, now – Happy 8 weeks! And I don’t blame you for ignoring it – I think that would be my best bet if there’s a next time too . Its just such a scary thing to have so much hope & then see it dashed. But, yours seems to be sticking very well, so on with the tests Doc! Dr’s do make the worst patients don’t they?

Hi lovely ladies....
Lils good luck for the eye!!!! fx you have the loveliest dream under the jungle juice - they will give you a happy sleep won't they??
Kismet I swear i love that you need to go and get some - maybe EWCM on the shopping list might help ha ha ha !!!!
Dash hugs
Moon/lils gosh the yam slam and the sweetpotato marshmellow madnesses sound very sweet and a delicious way to hide the vege. I had no idea that black friday followed thanksgiving - going to the store at 0300!! What the!!!

FYI
bhcg is 120,000 consistent with 10 weeks but I know that I am only 7+6 or 8 weeks - the ticker can't be wrong.. but I even know when we DTD!!!! So DH almost choked on his drink when he heard the result... I guess there is a very low chance of twins, but as I want two and he wants only one baby - would this be karma!!!!! Uss next wed, nuchal booked and have stopped denying that I am probably now definitely up the duff. Strange to say it. Need to see it..so I guess next Wed I will admit to myself that I am actually pregnant.
Wishing the same for all the most lovely and deserving women that I know....[\SPOILER]

Thanks ladies!
Kismet - You look like you are gearing up for O time, so take EPO to produce more EWCM, Mucinex 2x/day to make it "flow" & then Grapefruit juice for pH & for other unknown lucky reasons. You have to have healthy EWCM for to swim though & to live extended little lives so they can make it to lil eggy.
Moon - thanks, I will make sure its Premium Unleaded!
DrH - Oooo, what is the happy-dream stuff called so I can make a special request to the anesthesiologist??? It's twilight which they use a lot these days, it seems. I've had it for so many outpatient surgeries, anyway - even my 6 back surgeries were w/twilight bc they wanted you awake to tell them when it hurt like hell & where it hurt.
Those were really (really) rough/painful, but the others I didn't feel a thing.
Thanks for all the !!!
Mirium - how are you doing these days? Are you launching your TTC assault yet?
Argh, who goes there!? just practicing... Had a very nice, romantic night w/DH last night. We never have such nights, so it was really nice & I'm in love all over again...
Have a great day ladies! Extra &

Wow, that is like a 10-wk??? What does that mean, like how much do twins produce at 8 wks (is it double a normal baby I guess is what I'm asking)??? Wow, you must be so . Bring on the scan!!!

& maybe hold up the anaesthesiologist - ask for some midazolam (can't remember anything) and propofol (erotic dreams)!!!!!
Actually don't ask - they will give you less!!! But find out what they are going to give you!!!

Hey Dash - big to you hun. Get well soon !!
Lils - all the best with the surgery dear!! Thanks for the explanation on Thanksgiving...ha ha because although I've been in the US for years - I sometimes wonder what the real traditional Thanksgiving dinner is like...
. Yay for romantic night...
Dwrgi - hello dear!!
Moon - your Thanksgiving cook up sounded awesome and enlightened me on the Thanksgiving menu too!!
Kismet - all the best!
Pebble - Yay for your HSG feedback. It sounds good because I had found an article online once that said that there is a phenomenon referred to as 'preferential spill' whereby the fluid naturally flows through one tube quicker. I have done the HSG more than once and I was told once that the fluid flowed slower through one of the tubes so good luck!
Hello to all the other ladies - Owl, Nessaw, Greenleaf, Purple, Pad, Butterfly, LadyH, DrH, Luv, Maddy, Kiwi and anyone that I missed.
AFM - I am just hanging in here - still trying to synch losing weight and TTC. I am in the so called 2 week wait... - maybe about 4-5 dpo. I hope I know what I am doing... . I wanted to try IUI this cycle but based on my cycle, the RE's office thought they were going to be closed for Thanksgiving for 2 days during my projected ovulation time so I just tried naturally. Have a great day ladies!!

Moon/lils gosh the yam slam and the sweetpotato marshmellow madnesses sound very sweet and a delicious way to hide the vege. I had no idea that black friday followed thanksgiving - going to the store at 0300!! What the!!!
FYI
bhcg is 120,000 consistent with 10 weeks but I know that I am only 7+6 or 8 weeks - the ticker can't be wrong.. but I even know when we DTD!!!! So DH almost choked on his drink when he heard the result... I guess there is a very low chance of twins, but as I want two and he wants only one baby - would this be karma!!!!! Uss next wed, nuchal booked and have stopped denying that I am probably now definitely up the duff. Strange to say it. Need to see it..so I guess next Wed I will admit to myself that I am actually pregnant.
Wishing the same for all the most lovely and deserving women that I know....[\SPOILER]
Dr H:
I thought twins when I read this! Oo-er! Who's going to open a book on this??? Congratulations lovely, twins or 'just' one!
DrHouse....ooooh.... can't wait to hear your next update Bet hubby is on tenterhooks too
Pebble...great your HSG was okay. I had the same as you, one tube took a long time to fill but the doc said some people just have a 'preferential spill' to one side and not to worry
Mirium....not sure about you but I feel it's very unfair of my body to resist losing these excess kilos. But at least the exercise means less time for me to obsess about TTC
Dash....
Moon... yum, yam and marshmallows
These sorts of dishes are the reason I need to lose weight!
Kismet...if you can't you'll be online the same time as us Aussies. It's not all bad!
LilSluz... I'm on board the IUI train too.
AFM, I'm now CD13 (day 12 of injections) and back for scan and bloods today. I only had 1 follie at 6mm when tested on Monday. Seems I'm a low responder to the IUI drugs. Not sure what they will decide. If I miss out this month then we will be delayed until January because of the Xmas closure...

Hey lovely! What dosage are you on? Hmm, I'd want more than one follicle. I know that ICSI and IVF are different, but they generally want follicles to get to 18mm (ICSI) and 20mm for IVF, so you might have quite a few more days of stimming yet. Will they become more aggressive with their dosage, or abandon this cycle? Hope the scan and bloods show that more follicles have emerged (they often do!). Big
and good luck!Similar threads
