Hi girls!

Shea- it's totally understandable that you are confused right now about what to do :hugs:

Gilda- what cd are you on now?

How is everyone else going? I've still been feeling really sh!tty, I rang to try to get an appointment to see my Dr next week but he is now on holidays and the receptionist said that the only way I will get an appointment with the replacement Dr is to ring at 8am each morning and see if they can fit me in :hair: I want to go see someone because a) I've been feeling like my emotions are so out of control this week and I can't handle anything without crying, b) I want to ask to be tracked with blood tests so I don't have the stress of trying to figure out when I've O'd by myself and c) I want to ask why I am still ovulating so late even now I'm on clomid. So hopefully I can get in to see the replacement Dr, might even be good to have someone different look at my charts and give their opinion.

Hi girls, sorry been missing the past few days, how are you all? :wave:

Im on CD3 so first day of clomid for me today. I just hope that its not as bad as last month! Im really down and get so upset so easily, I know a baby is worth any pain but the disappointment each month is just getting to me and after a year trying, its like a chore and I have to wonder if thats the problem. I want it so much and its become so clinical. But anyway enough of my pity party, see how this month goes and but think this could be my last month for a while.

..Sun :babydust2:

My cycles b4 clomid were around the same 70+ days.... the occasional 50+ days...... never had anything less that 50 days really..... I'm not really too worried about getting a :bfn: though as af still hasn't shown.... but i'll wait 4 GP to get back and do some tests.... hopefully it is me being pg otherwise i have nfi wat else it could be and why i had that spotting....

What have you got planned for the weekend??

Mummy to Mason
09-02-2008, 01:46 PM
Oh Gipesa I can't believe it was BFN! I really really thought it would be a BFP :( I think getting a blood test done is a good idea and like you said the good news is AF hasn't turned up yet :hugs:

Feeling soooo tired today and have had really bad cramps the last couple of days. I know I haven't O'd yet though, should be within the next 2 weeks I hope :fingerscrossed:

Gilda if you aren't pregnant or haven't O'd yet maybe you need a higher dose?? I still think there's a chance you are preggers though and your bub is just being shy :D

Susiebabes- hope you get a good rest! Mason will wake up soon otherwise I would have a lay down too.

Today I did the food shopping and left Mason at home which was sooo much easier! I got him a cute little outfit though :cloud9:

DH is working today and will work tomorrow night so will need to sleep during the day tomorrow. We don't see him much when he's on his days on!

By my temps though it said i o'd on cd16 but today cd18 ff hasn't confirmed o yet though.

Gipsea :hugs: hun i think you prob have a shy bub too :fingerscrossed: hope your ok hun :hugs: again.

Today we took the kids to the reptile park they loved it and they got to hold a kids python and they got their photo taken :D.I loved it too,i am thinking about getting a snake its going to cost alot though cause you have to have a license etc.Im so excited i REALLY want one.

My sis has a snake..... my whole family chucked in to get it for her one christmas... :) its expensive to get but not very expensive to feed i think.... and the kids love them.... my neice loves "sommer".... i think before we got her snake she went to snake meetings that people hold and found a breeder..... she has a childrens python.....

hehehe :laughing: i am a natural animal lover though,i have loved them since a bub.

I am raising my kids the way i was raised,educating them about animals.In this day and age too many people harm animals and we need to pull together to save them.

I must say i am frightened of venomous snakes....well because they are poisonous.

When dd was about 19 months old she was nearly bitten by a very venomous snake called a guardar they are naturally a very agro snake and were very lucky she wasn't bitten.

sorry about your neg g. but, no af means that ur still in with a running!

Mummy to Mason
10-02-2008, 01:48 PM
Jac- I think it's great that you are teaching your kids not to be scared of them and also to care for all animals! I am sh!t scared, we have brown snakes on our property and they come right up to the house and one of them even got up on the step and looked like it was looking through the glass door at us :eek: We haven't seen any this summer but I think it might be because the dogs live outside now and maybe their barking scares the snakes away? But there was a massive one on the road in front of our house that was dead. I think the scariest thing for me with snakes is I don't know which ones are the bad ones and which ones are ok so if I see one I automatically freak out.

Does anyone get a ringing feeling in their ears all the time?? I have only noticed it this cycle and last cycle around this time up until when I O- it's hard to explain but it's a constant ringing and everything sounds really loud and hard to focus in on one thing, everything sort of blurrs together? Maybe I am just going crazy! :o

M2M i was talking to the lady yesterday at the reptile park and she said you can tell they are venomous by the scale patterns on them.With venomous ones they have a large scales on them and if you look at there belly the scales are long across their belly.With the non-venomous their scales are very minute and the scales are short across their belly.

I hope thats right don't quote me though im just trying to remember if thats right

Hi Girls....

Jac - The photos are great.... :yes: I'd love to have a snake too but haven't got the time for one... i've already got the two dogs... hehehe they keep me on my feet... hehehehe I think we paid about 400 for my sisters snake too.... when she got sommer.... my sis & her hubby made enclosures.... coz he has a bearded dragon..... You should ask DF to help you make one....!!! hehehehehe

Shea - Thanks sweetie... i've suprised myself again... i thought i was gonna be upset if i saw a BFN but i've been fine.... i think coz af still isn't here i'm still in with a running.... :fingerscrossed: How have you been???

Haylie - i get that ringing in my ears sometimes but i used to get it from before i started on clomid so i wouldn't know.. hehehehe.... only happens every now and then....

Susiebabes - how you doing???

HOw is everyone else???

Well today i went shopping... i like shopping but didn't like it today.... i've got a baby shower coming up next weekend and had to go buy baby stuff.... was just a tease!!! I hope everybody at the baby shower doesn't keep asking when i'm gonna be having kids...:fingerscrossed:

♥Heaven Sent♥
10-02-2008, 03:02 PM
Oh Gilda thats a great idea-i can get df and fil to make one :D

I might try find a pattern for one,if i can :p

:hugs: gilda i hate looking at pregnant women and baby stuff.

Well you wouldn't believe it but my temp has dropped again i really don't know what going on,i have no cm im completely dry so i don't know when im going to o.I have no OPK tests left so i can't do that either.I used maybe baby and i have pebbles.

Just a question,can having the air con or fan on lower your temp?

10-02-2008, 03:20 PM
Hi all

LOL i just woke up, had an afternoon sleep. was good think i needed it. :fingerscrossed: no headache.

We have been shopping this weekend too!

DH has decided to go ply basket ball again. I think it is good. But we have been to get new shoes, clothing, a ball (that was a bargin!! $5). So far we have spent about $300 on stuff and he is not even in a team yet! :confused:

not much to report here. My dh never makes a big thing of feb 14. Anyway i made a comment the other day what is he going to get me. His response was "how about a bubby??"

I thought i only wish! :(

10-02-2008, 05:13 PM
Jac- what does your chart look like? If you think you O'd a couple of days ago it's probably normal to have a bit of a temp dip today. I hope it happens soon if it hasn't already happened! Yeah I think having the fan on or aircon on can affect it but not by much I wouldn't think. There are some days I wake up really hot and sweaty but my temp will be the lowest it's been all cycle. Weird hey!

Gipesa- I know what you mean, it's so hard buying baby clothes when you are trying so hard for your own :hugs:

My DH never makes a big deal about valentines day either. He said it's for the 'newies' and not married old couples like us :mad: hehe...

:iagree:with M2M, i am sure that cd 19 is +

I think i have been around you lovely ladies too much i talked to dh about twins. as i was thinking of maybe talking to fs to see what is next for us after this one. was thinking of asking about taking extra clomid. I don't know but. :confused:

anyway i think i am coming around to your kind of thinking! like if i did take the stronger clomid, then a higher chance of twins, dh was like why not! i was like well i think the idea is growing on me!

The one thing that come to mind about twins but for me is "what if i can't handle it? " I am already bad with little to no sleep. what would it be like with two! I think if anything i think i am scared that i wouldn't cope and my mum is too far away to help.

But don't get me wrong i wouldn't so no i don't want them!

sorry i am worried! He keeps saying one for each of us, (he is like this with our dogs too.)

any way thanks ladies for making me think about twins in a different way!

the other way is to look at the shape of their heads. if it is more heart like than it is a python, which is not venomous (and are the better choice for pets) and the others are venomous.

scary about the shooting too!

feb 14th in my house is my dh's dog's birthday :thumbsdown: i remember our first year together and i had a picnic all planned but instead we spent the day making dog biscuits. so, i now dont expect anything and am not disappointed.

Hi girls, sorry I haven't been around much, having some family dramas and don't get a chance to get online much. Hope your all well and getting lots of bding ready for BFP's this month! I'm CD5, getting sick from the clomid and BAD headaches so being on the computer hurts so another reason I'm not around much. Will try check in over the next few days but if it's anything like last month it might not be till I'm finished taking the clomid and the headaches and vomiting stop. Positive vibes to everyone :)

For those who get side effects, do you notice them mainly on the days you take the pills of after that? I mostly notice it after I've finished taking the pills.

Sorry to hear you burnt yourself though :hugs:

Pinkish i guess... but i seriously dont know if it was my eyes.... it was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooo faint!!! No way it would come up on a photo.... i'll test again mid week and end of week....

Hopefully by mid week your levels would have risen enough that the line will be much clearer :fingerscrossed: When I got my BFP with Mason the line was soooo faint and took nearly the whole time limit to appear, I even doubted myself thinking I was making it up in my head. I couldn't get a Dr appt until a week later and I didn't dare retest in that time in case it was negative and I would be heartbroken. We went to the Dr and their test came up positive straight away!

I will be keeping everything (well not EVERYTHING :p) crossed for you over the next few days!

Gilda- I really do think that if you can see a pinkish line then it is a very early BFP :yes: I can't wait to see what happens with your mid week test!

Trying to hold my pee so I can do another OPK but it's only been 10 mins and already I'm busting :laughing: I have some mild cramps but nothing like I've had the last week or so and no ewcm yet so maybe I'm a bit further from O than I think. The test line is getting darker though so I don't know what to think. Will see what happens.

Hi girls :wave: How has everyone's mornings been?

This morning DH came home after night shift and let me have a bit of a sleep in so he got Mason up and changed his nappy and gave him breakfast. Well at 8am he comes barging into the room telling me I have to shower Mason NOW because he is covered in weetbix and had done a poo. Um hello, have you not heard of a face cloth and another nappy change?? :rolleyes: I am not a morning person at all but especially worse when I get woken abruptly. I was so cranky and when I tried to shut the roman blind in the ensuit it wouldn't work so I yanked on it really hard and now it's broken :o DH is going to get mad at me and we will probably have to buy a new one but I was so cranky that I couldnt stop myself :laughing:

Last night I had the worst pains which I think (hope) were O pains. For anyone here who has been through labour, it felt like what a mild contraction feels like but it was constant :eek: I'm hoping it was O, my temp is low again this morning though so I don't really know.

Hi girls

Well - I have been watching this thread for about a week now having stumbled across the website - what a great group of supporters you are for each other.

My story is that there is me and DH and Ben who is 3.5. We were very lucky with Ben in that we weren't really trying when I fell pregnant.

This time round it is a lot different. I am currently at the 6 month mark but in that time have only had 2 af's since the last one after the pill. Currently sitting on 74 days!!!

I have an appointment with the doctor this Thursday and wondering (hoping) that he'll put me on Clomid.

Anyway - just wanted to make myself known as I have been watching for a while now!!

Welcome lucysummers!! How annoying for you to have such long cycles :thumbsdown: Hopefully your doc can give you some answers and something to help shorten your cycles. I love your sons name!

I really don't feel as if O is happening today, even though last night I could have sworn it was with the pain I had. Will see how the next few days go with my temps & OPK's.

I did all the housework today and it feels great to have everything clean and tidy at once. Of course cycle Mason has messed it up again but at least I know it's clean!

It' because I took it so much later than normal so I didn't really think it was a good one, so I just ticked the box to disregard it. A fertility friend guide said it would be so high because of the time difference. Temping is so strict hey!

Hi Girls,

I just pulled out the info leaflet that comes in the Clomid pack and one of the side effects are "increased frequency of urination" so don't worry Heaven Sent - you're not imagining things :laughing:

Well it's absolutley pouring here this morning, so looks like it'll be a day at home for me today....how boring.

Can I ask you all a question, for those of you who normally get sore boobs after o - do you get it straight after o or a few days later. I am trying to work out when I o (or if I even have as yet) my boobs are not sore yet but I had positive opk's on cd12,cd13 and now I'm cd 16 but still getting some ewcm so I dunno?

If you still have the sore boobs, but turn out not to be PG, I was told it was from an estrogen dominance, or fluid retention. I had a couple of cycles with very sore, tingly, burning boobs that didn't result in a BFP and that is what i was told.

Mummy to Mason

Good morning! :wave:

mytwolilprinces- when I wasn't on clomid I would get sore boobs leading up to O and really sore boobs all through the 2ww. Now I don't get them much at all but I am wondering if I did O yesterday because my boobs were sore last night and this morning.

My OPK's are now really really light and my temp is slightly up today so this is why I am thinking I O'd yesterday. Will see what happens I guess. I really hope I did because for me to O on day 19 is like a miracle! :laughing:

G - Sounding really positive. I really hope it is a BFP. If you are the levels double every day which means if it was a light line it should be darker if you test today or tomorrow. You said you wanted to test before the wedding, so you could if you wanted to!

Yep looks like a + for you on cd18 but by your charts it looks like you o'd on cd19 the only thing is usually when you get a + opk you usually release the egg( ovulate ) 24-48 hrs later so i think its looking + for you for cd 19 :smiliedance: for you

Yep I agree, *if* I have O'd over the last couple of days it was definately cd19. I know the OPK on cd18 isn't what a positive should look like but for me that is what my positives usually look like. I hope I'm not just trying to convince myself I O'd when I really haven't though :hair: Argh, so much frustration! This is why I want to be tracked with blood tests but hopefully I won't need to worry about it since I'll be getting a BFP in 2 weeks :D

Hi girls,

Thanks for the messages of support - I am really looking forward to seeing the doctor tomorrow as at least i will feel like I am doing something about it.

On cd75:hair: now but at least if I go now before I gt my af then we can start from now rather than I would guess if I got it now they might say - well let's see what happens next time.

I've never done the whole temping or tracking thing so we will see what they say - you all seem very good at it so I might be asking for advice!!!

Hope everyone's day is going well.

You will know in the next few days if ff confirms it and if your temps continue to rise :fingerscrossed:

I wanted a bt after i o'd last time but the doc said that cause i had a + OPK that i didn't need a bt.

Try not to stress,you are o'ing for sure :D

Lucy definitely get in before you get af and push for it,they aren't the ones that are stressed from ttc for so long so i don't think it's their choice.

If my doc hadn't of given me clomid i would have got another opinion.

Fortuantly my boss is GREAT as my appt is at 12.45 tomorrow so will prob be out of work for up to 1.5 to 2 hours with travel back to the medical centre etc but they are just like 'go if you need to'.

Do you have any other OB/GYN's in your area?? And is it worth asking for another referral? Well that is if you still want a bubby.

It might help you to feel a little more relaxed by getting a second opinion. iykwim.

so, the reality is that if i go off the meds i have sweet fa chance of it happening naturally. i mean i am interested to see if the clomid does eventually work. and what if i run into all this trouble later on? what do i d do ladies????

:hugs: I have to say i was thing something along these lines, as i had looked at clomid and metaform when i was first told about my PCOS and the i would have to take clomid to help me.

Hun this is a hard decision for you too make. My thoiughts are with you. I guess you need to sit down and talk to dh/p and see what you can both work out together.

About the starting clomid half way through your cycle. That was when i started. I was day 14 and they had sent me for 3 lots of bloods and as i hadn't o'ed at that time they started me on clomid.

Hun are they going to track you with bloods?

Hi there :D I have only just joined the forum because I have realised that although I thought I would be totally fine and be able to do this alone, I cant :( A lil bit of background info about me is that I am 26 yrs old, ttc #2 on now what will be my second cycle of clomid. I have pcos, dont ovulate (hence the clomid haha) and it took almost 3 years to conceive #1. I tested today on my first cycle of clomid whilst ttc #2 and got my BFN which is why I am now coming over here to cry my heart out. I know it may seem silly, I mean I am asking myself WHY am I getting so upset over my first cycle ... quite simply because I expected it to work again, I did the same dosage, same everything when I fell with dd #1 and I thought... well why wouldnt it happen again? So now here I am again on the ttc emotional rollercoaster and I am not coping too well ALREADY! It just seems like de ja vu, I dont think I can handle another 3 year wait!!

Sorry for the depressing first post!! :crying:

Welcome gigglepot! Your DD is only 5 days older than my DS! :yelclap: TTC really is such a tough thing to go through, stick around though because the girls on here are so so supportive.

Jac- well done to Sasha! Glad he went ok with his needles, he must be such a brave little boy.

Shea- how frustrating for you, I can't even imagine the emotional turmoil you must be going through trying to decide whether to keep taking the meds or not. If it were me I would keep on them but it's got to be what you feel happy with. What if you give them another cycle? You can always change your mind at any time. Sending lots of hugs your way :hugs:

susiebabes- not long till you get your BFP now!

Gilda- how was the wedding?

Hi to everyone else :wave:

I am exhausted. I took Mason shopping just for a few things for tonight and I'm so buggered, I don't know why cause I didn't do that much :o Tonight I am cooking DH a roast pork dinner and a yummy dessert.

Well I went to the doctors - after a half hour wait I finally got called in! He seems to think I definitely have PCOS but didn't put me on anything yet.

I have had a blood test which comes back on Monday :yelclap: but no available appointments with the doctor until Friday :hair:! I will ring on Monday but doubt they will tell me anything so a long week it will be next week leading up to Friday.

He said that once that came back he will refer me to the fertility specialist to start treatment. He wanted to wait till results were back so he could refer me with a full picture which I can understand but don't like waiting!!!!!!

He was a new doctor for me as my last one just went on maternity leave (!) and he seems really nice and helpful so we'll see next week.

Hope all your days are going well - Heaven I know what you mean about the heat at the moment but where I work I have to put a fleece jumper on as the air con is soooo cold - but then have to remember to take it off before leaving otherwise I melt as soon as I get outside!!!!!

Hope everyone's days are oging well and we can all get some good bding in tonight for Valentines!!!

:eek: <--- that's how I feel about it! But we have started thinking about it already and are changing our private health to the top level so we are covered if it ever gets to that stage. I think I would try naturally for at least 6 months after clomid though because I don't know that we are financially or emotionally ready for IVF. Plus there is a 12 month wait before we would be covered as we'd be changing levels of cover iykwim.

IVF scares the **** out of me too!

I feel blessed to have dd 1 and I know I would have done absolutely anything to get that first child, but I am not so sure for #2. That may sound silly and I may just think that now because I have only just started ttc #2 but I remember all to well the stress that it put not only on me and dh but also on my marriage, I cant imagine having to go through it all again

Oh a lot of reading to catch up on again :laughing:
Welcome Gigglepot :wave:
I am taking 100mg clomid a day plus 500mg metformin 3 times a day. Cycles 1 & 2 on clomid were only 50mg and I didn't ovulate. My gyno told me the normal time frame on clomid is 6 months, after that the options are injections to bring on O but I'm not to sure how that works. Then IVF after that?

I too am scared of having to go through IVF. The cost of it is a concern too. I think we would give 6 months of it a go, but don't know if I could put myself through it any longer than that. I would however insist that 2 eggs be transferred at each attempt rather than 1, Id rather have twins than have no baby at all.

Hope everyone had a good Valentine's Day. DH bought me a bunch of roses, and he and DS gave me a cute card. I didn't buy for DH, just a card, so I made him a roast dinner :p

I am CD9 today and feeling ok, just waiting to O, well hoping to O :fingerscrossed:

Gilda - so sorry about nasty nasty nasty af. Hope the wedding was good though.

Must admit I didn't realise how close we maybe could be to IVF until I saw the doctor yesterday and he mentioned it if Clomid doesn't work and that they only do that for 6 months - I think I need to address the reality of having problems conceiving. So hard though when it was so easy with ds.

Not sure what dh would think about IVF - he is keen for #2 but it is definitely more me and not sure how he would feel about the stress etc of IVF...hhmmm - might be best not to think about it until we actually get to that point - which hopefully we won't!!!

Anyone else in the situation where DH/DP/DB is not as 'on board' with it all as you??? (p.s. still very supportive!!!!...and love him dearly!!!!)

Oh Gilda hun I am so so sorry :gloomy: I honestly though you were a definate BFP :hugs: How are you feeling? Do you think you need to chat to your Dr about getting a higher dose to make your cycles shorter? 80 days seems such a long long time for you to wait :hugs:I am thinking of you today xo

lucysummers- sometimes I feel as though DH isn't as 'on board' as I am but then he will say little things occasionally to make me realise he wants it as bad. I think with women it's just so all-consuming and such a desperate need for a child but those feelings aren't as intense for the men.

Jac- I think about IVF all the time which is probably a bad thing! Can't help it though. I mostly wonder how we would afford it, well I know we wouldn't be able to afford it until our house sold because we would need to use some of the profits from that to pay for it :(

Well FF now says I O'd on day 19 like I suspected :yelclap: Check out my chart- http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/1c1c78 And the best thing about it was that the times we BD'd leading up to it were really really good, we were relaxed and not forcing it because we thought that O was ages away! I really feel like I'm in with a good chance this month. I'm still not 100% believing that I O'd because it seems like such a miracle to be so early for me but all signs seem to point to it so I just need to watch my temps over the next few days. And it would probably explain was I was so sick this time from the clomid because it was kicking in like it's meant to.

My step dad said this morning to me that I look different and I'm glowing. He doesn't know I could be pregnant! :bee:

Hi there Gilda :( THAT SUCKS!! GRRR @ af.. hope that cycle # 2 on clomid brings us both the luck we want!!

Sun, I am on the same as you are in regards to metformin, 1500mg a day! but only on 50mg of clomid.. I am going to chart this next cycle, just waiting for af to come which will be early next week, sooo have to get me some opk's and do the whole ff char thing all over again.. which of course just rubs in your face every day that you are ttc! So much for trying to keep it at the back of my mind!

At least if it comes to be using injections to bring on O I am used to that from 4 injections a day when preg due to gestational diabetes! Looking at all you guys here is kinda making me lose hope :( I know it shouldnt and you are all still here because you havent gotten ur BFP yet.. but it just shows how many of us there are.. and this is only a small portion of us who decided to come and spill our guts! I hate thinking that there are so many ppl out there who are ttc who are waiting waitign waiting for that bfp, seems so unfair!

OK - this clearly is negative thought day and I'm afriad I am no exception! After seeing the doctor yesterday it has finally hit me today that I am having problems conceiving. All I want to scream is WHY ME!!!...especially as we had ds so easily. I am so sorry to all of you ttc #1 as that must sound so so awful and ungrateful and I feel awful even typing it but now I am wondering how much of a miracle was ds.

I'm so sorry - this is so selfish as I am only on 6 months and I know there are many of you who are on so much longer waits but I have just gone through my phone thinking of who I could call to vent my frustrations and I'm afraid I could think of no one who would know what I was feeling like you girls so here I am!

I am so glad to have found you all and the support - I only hope that I can offer support to you girls like you have already given me.

Gigglepot i think susiebabes means that what you wrote did offend her a little i think its because we are here supporting each other and staying positive that we will get our :bfp: every month is a struggle but if we keep being negative then thats what we will attract.

Lucy- I dont know about anyone else, but there is no need to apologise, any wait for anyone ttc seems like an eternity, whether it is 3 months or 3 years it is still a wait and still just as agonising I can say that because I have been on both sides.. I am now only on cycle one for #2 but with #1 it took us almost 3 years to conceive and I can tell you now that this one month has been just as bad as the 3 years, of course I did end up being blessed with falling preg but I am still just as scared that this time clomid wont be enough :( sooo I guess I am just trying to say, come in, vent, dont say your sorry for doing so... I would love to think that we are all here to support each other no matter what..

M2M- that is absolutely fantastic!! YAY for O'ing earlier on!! WOOO HOOOO.. this is going to be YOUR cycle!! Bring on that BFP!!!

Susie- I love frangipani plants, they smell divine!

Even though there are so many people that are having trouble ttc its gods plan he has one for everyone,each person is different and has a different life plan.But life is what we make it sometimes and we need to work hard to get what we want,if that means ttc for so long then so be it.

ooooo, sorry. I just am having a bad few days cause yesterday was testing day. Just thought that I was ok to spill my thoughts in here and get some support, I dont mean to offend or upset anyone, its just what is on my mind.

The reason I asked what was meant was cause it said "thanks hun" ... maybe that was saracastic...

Yes you are more than welcome to spill your guts i think that we just need to understand that this road for us makes us more sensitive to certain things.I know exactly what you mean,it IS SO UNFAIR but we will get there in the end.

I think we all need to try and stay positive which is really hard sometimes - i have just emailed my sister in the UK (who has PCOS and went on Clomid for her DS AND DD) to see how she found it.

It is a hard balance on here I think to strike between being able to feel able to vent how we feel and also staying positive - i am a very strong believer that if we feel negative / stressed then it won't happen - but l also think that the strong support network here is key and some of us may find here the easiest place for us just to get our feelings off our chest.

Gigglepot I am sure that even if your comments caused anyone upset it will not be taken to heart and everyone's asupport will continue as it is so needed.

anyway - I will shut up now - have to go pick up DS from childcare!!! Have a great weekend girls - not sure how much I will be able to pop in over the weekend!!

I just probably should have worded it better, I was trying to say that it breaks my heart to see that there are just so many ppl out there who are in the same boat as I am.

OMG some drunk fella was just walking up our street stumbling all over the place and started throwing rocks at our dogs who were barking at him. DH went out to see what was happening and nearly got hit in the head with a rock :eek: Then the guy yelled out that if the dogs bark once more at him he's going to cut their throats. OMG I am shaking.

gigglepot- I don't think susie was being sarcastic, I think as with most of us who have been trying for so long (and yourself included because you have definately been through your fair share of TTC issues) it is easy to maybe misread what someone has written and maybe take things to heart a bit. I'm sure there was no offence taken.

Lets put all this behind us and move on because this is the best thread on bubhub :bee:

And as for negativity, I don't think anyone who is going through TTC can be positive ALL the time. So everyone should feel free to vent/scream/whinge all they want. I know I've certainly done a lot of it myself :D

Gipesa- how are you going? Did you have more blood today?

Susie- are you ok hun?

As for me well I am absolutely stoked that I most likely O'd on day 19. It's like a frikkin miracle, I have never O'd that early before!!! :yelclap:

I didn't have anymore blood today.... really weird... i'm scared it might be bad i'm having these small bleeds.... i'll find out soon but .... i might go see the other doc on wednesday when i get DH's sperm test back.....

And guess what i did today!?!?!?! I SPRAINED MY ANKLE!!!! hehehehe i was at a house today and it was tiled throughout and i was walking across a room and slipped and sprained it.... me and my girlfriend couldn't stop laughing... it was sooooooo funny but hurt at the same time.... :laughing:

I'm sooooo happy you O'd early Haylie!!! :smiliedance: :fingerscrossed: for ya sweetie!!!

And i agree with Haylie.... this is the best thread on bub hub!!! hehehe And we all need to stay positive!!! That is why we are all here to stay positive and support each other.....:yes:

Mummy to Mason
15-02-2008, 08:37 PM
Oh OUCH! I hope you are ok now, sprained ankles really hurt! I hope the dr can shed some light on what is happening. 80 day cycles would be so mega frustrating because it's such a long wait! Hopefully they can sort it out for you. Or MAYBE you are actually preggers and are just getting small bleeds like a lot of people seem to get. And your bub is shy so it's not showing itself on a HPT yet :yelclap:

Hi Jac, mytwolilprinces, shea, gigglepot, lucy, sundayschild, and all my other fave bubhubbers (too tired to list all the names!). How is everyone today?

Well my temp was high again this morning so looks like I really am 4dpo! :yelclap: YAY! Not long till testing now. I am just soooo happy that I O'd so early, it feels like such a relief that the clomid is finally doing what it's meant to!

Chat to you all later xo

Hi Haylie!!! :wave:

Yep I'm on CD1 i think.... oh well... at least i can start trying again soon!!! hehehe I think i'll just go on my normal dosage of clomid this cycle and if i have a long cycle again i'll ask GP for higher dosage....

Hope everyone is ok....

Mummy to Mason
17-02-2008, 10:45 AM
Oh Gilda, that really sucks :hugs: But at least you are being so positive about it and you never know, you may O a lot earlier this time. I know my cycles aren't as long as yours but last time I O'd on day 28 and this time was day 19 so that's a massive improvement and I didn't do anything differently. So I hope the same happens for you :hugs:

Where is everyone??? It's quiet in here!

I am now 5dpo. I couldn't sleep last night because I kept thinking that what if my LP is stuffed up again this time because I O'd so early and everything goes crazy again. I really hope not, I so badly want this to be our month! :fingerscrossed:
