WTT with a view to TTC in Sept/Oct/Nov - looking for a TTC buddy!

[almosthere]

I agree-do not feel bad! I think it is very sweet of your MIL....which I think you should let her know-your appreciation and all!-but it does seem like a bit much!

 

[almosthere]

My husbands cousin is in labor right now....I am happy for her (even though I am not the biggest fan of her!) and I am also extremely jealous of course!!

Hi ladies I will read all your post and will reply later as off to work now

Think it's over for me I don't temp but did one this morning and 36.1 so think that's it for me I do feel a bit crampy too. If af is tol arrive need it ASAP so we have a chance still this next cycle with oh working offshore pattern. Didn't build my hopes up too much but still feel like crying my eyes out I kno af not here but from what I read temps a big thing.



Thanks so much ladies for all your support I just really starting to worry something's wrong with me. I don't chart but just ordered a proper bbt thermometer and some opk I need to see if things are working properly.

Thanks Emz and Almost. I did thank her for asking if I wanted her over and said she is welcome to pop over whenever she feels like it so I guess I shouldn´t feel too bad but combined with the whole issue about whether or not she is going to come and wait at the hospital when I am in labour which we have very nicely explained that we would prefer not to happen I feel like I am pushing her away which is not my intention at all! It just seems like telling her that she can come over and visit whenever she wants before or after the baby is born just isn´t enough!

Sunshine, I don´t want to give you any false hope but taking your temp today and only today doesn´t really give you any information at all. It is the temperature changes throughout your cycle that give you a clearer picture of whether or not you are ovulating, pregnant, etc. Who knows whether or not your temp today is high or low for you? Also, there are many variables that can affect your temperature including how well you slept, what you ate and drank before going to bed, the temperature of your room... I´m no expert but I temped for 3 months before my BFP and often had random irregular temps that on their own seemed strange but when looking at my chart were obvious anomalies. Good luck.

keep your head up sunshine!

i had bloodwork taken today, got the day off from ultra sound which was great as it was a horrid experience yesterday....will update when I get results!

 

[almosthere]

Oh goodness, also still awaiting the arrival of a little boy on my husbands side of the family....looks like she is actually in labor today on labor day hahaa!!! I hope he comes out nice and healthy!! The mommy has been in the hospital since yesterday afternoon.

 

[PreshFest]

I have a friend in labor, too! Eeek!

Good luck with the coming weeks almost! When is the actual ER and ET?

Sunshine...you are killing me. Test already! Lol

And yay Sonia for all that movement! Did upypu decide on a name yet? This lil one kicks me nonstop and I love love love it. Still not really feeling the wiggles and turns tho...I guess it's the anterior placenta. Annoying! But I'm so in love with her.

 

[almosthere]

Still no baby he is a stubborn one!! lol

and I am waiting to trigger, so ER is 2 days after trigger...I must be close to triggering...guessing I will in the next few days!! ER should be no later than Sunday I would think!

 

[PreshFest]

Eeeeeek!! Sunday is SO close. This is so exciting!

My stepsister is trying to be a surrogate and had her ET yesterday for it! So that's kind of exciting in a different way, I guess. We don't know the couple she will be carrying for. They are american, but living in China, so they will never meet until the baby is born. Crazy!

 

[Jembug]

Ladies I'm still here and reading up- sorry I've been rubbish at posting!
Love reading all the positive news... Will promise to catch tomorrow night. Xxxxx

 

[Soniamillie01]

Miss m - sorry to hear about your mil, I'm sure you've not upset her. Could you maybe suggest a lunch date with her this week, just the two of you or maybe a trip to day a day spa? I'm sure she'd really love that and the pampering may be just what you need?

Almosthere - glad you're better hun and moving towards that tww.

Presh - yes it's lovely, he is definitely a wriggler especially after food.

I'm a little but hacked off to be honest. We are at the inlaws for a few days and when we arrived they said to my husband oh you've lost weight, he then said oh Sonia lost loads, his dad said well it doesn't look like its, she's piled it all back on, hasn't she? I just brushed it off and pointed to the belly but can't say it didn't upset me a little.

 

[PreshFest]

Ugh, sonia. It's so hard when people comment on your weight. Pregnant or not, it's just not cool. I think I've gained 10lbs now and I'm not ok with it! Too bad there's nothing I can do about it

 

[sunshine82]

Hi my lovelies

Hope you are all okay. I've tested and bfn im not surprised really as cramps too similar to af im sure she is about to make her horrible appearance. Im going to stay positive for that bfp soon. I need af to arrive pronto if that's how it is this month!!! as oh arrives home thursday for just over 2 and half weeks so limited on days!!!!

Almost good luck for sunday I am so excited for you!!!! eeek!!!!

How is everyone xxx

 

[Soniamillie01]

I wouldn't normally mind but I've lost not gained! At dinner he said oh go and sit down and take all that weight off your feet!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Sorry you got a bfn hun but onwards to next month! Also not out until AF shows. X

 

[almosthere]

Sorry about the comments on weight sonia-they know you are pregnant right?? Must be frustrating either way-you need to gain for babies health!!

SO ladies...tonight is the night...I trigger!!! This means my eggs will begin to grow in the next 36 hours in my many follicles (I am sooo crampy and bloated-my follicles are hugeee!!) and I go in for my procedure for my eggs to be removed Thursday!!! I will officially be in my tww by next Tuesday the latest as that is when the beautiful embryos will be put back where they belong...yay!!!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Almost - I am so excited for you hun. The cramping must be a good sign that you're going to have some super eggs! Can't wait to heat about this next stage and the tww. Have you considered what your reaction may be to multiples? X

 

[miss malteser]

Sorry to hear about the bfn Sunshine. Stay positive! Next month could be your month!

Sonia, don´t worry about the weight comments. Throughout my pregnancy I have received so many comments from my lack of weight gain to people saying OMG you are huge! I have put on exactly 12kg which is the average over here but that hasn´t stopped DHs family permanently calling me fatty! Whether you put on weight, lose weight or stay pretty much the same weight you´re going to receive all types of comments. Try not to let it affect you.

I had a gyne appointment this morning in which I was connected to a machine that measures baby´s heartbeat and my contractions for about half an hour. I was having some contractions but nothing spectacular. The gyne then told me that my cervix was still long and closed. Gutted isn´t the word! It seems like the permanent period pains are having no effect whatsoever. My itching has started up again so off for another blood test tomorrow and on Monday morning I´ll be connected up to the machine again to see if I´m progressing. If my bile acid results come back high again it looks like they´ll induce me next week. I really hope things start to move naturally before then.

Maz, if anyone tells you that you´re probably going to have your LO early don´t take any notice of them. Everyone said I was definitely going to go early including my midwife which has made the wait even worse. Instead of getting impatient after reaching my due date, I´ve been on tenderhooks since around 37 weeks!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Thanks miss m, I know you're right.

Hope the itching passes and that things happen soon without intervention. X

 

[almosthere]

Sonia-I have! I would be THRILLED.....after all the waiting-I would gladly welcome two! Odds are, I will only have one though-twins only run on my side of the family, and this doctor will only put in one fertilized embryo unless he feels he needs to put two due to poor quality to up our chances! DH really just wants one for now-and I agree there are positives to twins and also challenges. So, I would welcome whatever I am fortunate to get-DH as well, but I think he will need time to get used to the idea if that is what is to come!!! ONE DAY TIL EGG RETRIEVAL!!! And I misunderstood ivf tww....mine starts after tomorrow as that would be "O" day...ahhh!!! I should know if I am pregnant around Sept.16-or a bit after that, OMGSH!!!
