Hekate - been reading some of your threads and yours is a very interesting story - I really wish you all the success with your :bfp:!! So how do you inseminate - with a syringe?? Just so intrigued.... tell us more :hug:

Tanya
Sep 6th, 2008, 19:24 PM
May be a good idea if we all do a little introduction... since we are all cycle buds now..

I am 33 and DH is 31... we have been TTC since March and no :bfp: yet.. did a home spermie test on DH and came back low concentration so we are taking some steps -

1. DH is coming off antidepressants as they can apparently cause low sperm count.
2. He is now taking Fertilaid natural supplement for spermies
3. we will BD every other day around O day to give spermies more of a chance

I have gynae appointement booked for 28 Oct so if no :bfp: will do proper tests...

So this is the 1st month trying this new method so lets see...


:hug:

Tiffers
Sep 7th, 2008, 06:17 AM
Great idea Tanya!! I hope that all increases your chances and you get your :bfp: You deserve it! I was thinking about booking an appointment also if I did not get my :bfp: soon to see if there was anything happening.. :confused:

My name is Tiffany, I live in California and I am 22 and DH is 23. We have been married for 3 years and we have actually been together since I was 15, so we would love to add another little one to our clan! :happydance: We did get pregnant in January, but sadly we miscarried that same month. This is going to be our 9th cycle :shocked: but I just KNOW this is my month!!! I know this is going to be the lucky month for this clan!! :happydance:

I am glad you are feeling positive Tanya and are able to actually do something towards conceiving.....I think it is one of the hardest things about ttc...that you seem to be unable to do much towards it (except for the timing)....
I hope you will be successful this month!:dust:

I am 31 and have been planning to ttc for a long time....I am in a same-sex relationship so had to find "spermies" elsewhere :rofl::rofl::rofl:

There were many decisions to make, like should we or do we want to go through a clinic or have a private donor? do we want the donor to be known or unknown? do we want to co-parent? what criteria should the donor fulfill if anything other then healthy? what are the legal implications?

but the hardest part seemed to be finding a suitable donor....that was before I started ttc:rofl:
this will be my 3rd cycle ttc....

hekate

Hi All, Just dropping in to say Hi. I think I may need to live vicariously through all of you this month as my OH is flying out on business this Sunday, for 8 days... and I O late.... :hissy: And just when I thought the :witch: had left after being rather kind this month, round two started. Hopefully this will mean I have a longer cycle, O later after OH returns! Fingers crossed. I'm having progesterone test on CD21 (short luteal phase), so I hope the date my doctor calculated is still accure. Take a look at my chart if you've got a min and tell me what you think. Very best luck to all this month :)

Tanya: Bding marathon started tonight so I am hoping that all went well for you! :rofl: Ya gotta stick to the plan babe!!! :wink: Mine is starting Sunday night, as I am to ovulate hopefully on Thursday.. YEAH!!!

As for me, Just here waiting to ovulate! I am starting OPKs on Sunday so just 1 more day to go! :happydance: I dont know, OPKs always mae me feel like I am going a little less crazy, actually peeing on a stick! :rofl:

I read that 5 days before your ovulation is when you are most fertile and should BD. Lets get to it then!

Sarah: SOO Sorry!! i did not mean to overlook you! Best of luck hun!! I had one of those cycles last month.. husband just needs to stay in town!! :hissy: doesnt the world understand everything needs to stop for those few days?? How rude.

I am feeling a bit down at moment....car still playing up after paying £125 to the garage....and that was my fund for my week off at the end of the month....which I really need....so much stress at work have been covering for a colleague since over 2 month and have been feeling very exhausted.....
not even sure if I should even try this month!

sorry to be a moaner! :dohh:

:hi: guys,

Hope everyone is well.

Sarah, Tiffers, Everhopeful, lovely to meet you!

Everhopeful, how did the scan go? A very happy belated birthday to you.

Sarah, sorry your DH is away. I do hope this cycle isn't lost for you and you O late when DH is back.

Hekate, keep the faith! I know it's hard when you are so stressed out. Hang in there. Thinking of you.

Tanya, I've missed you sweetheart!

Here's an update on me, since I've been away for a week (sorry, I've done a copy and paste job from my journal):
So are back from our fabulous holiday. It was just so good to get away although the weather didn't play nice the whole time. We did have a couple of really nice days though We ate plenty of fresh seafood, did a few touristy things and just relaxed plenty.

There were sheep in a field next door to us and one evening we opened the front door to find one of them standing on the door step having a poo. Charming, eh! :rofl:

MIL and SIL and family were coincidentally on holiday not to far away too, so we caught up with them one afternoon. I don't mind, because I have the absolute bestest in-laws

On the ttc front, so far we BD'd on CD6, 10, 11, 13 & 14.

CBFM gave me lows until CD13 and then a peak yesterday on CD14 and again this morning? But I had quite bad cramping most of yesterday afternoon so I think I'm 1dpo.

:hug:

very confused!:confused:

Hi Hekate-

So sorry your cycle is confusing you! I really hope that your doctor can help you! And soon!! Sometimes I don't get much CM when I ovulate so perhaps it is all happening just without the CM?? Anyway, I hope you get some answers soon!!

Hi Ladies!! Into the 2WW wait we go.. I hope we all come out alive. I got my positive OPK on Thursday :happydance: and we BD Wed., Thursday, Friday, and Today, and also tomorrow just in case! But, I was wondering, if I got my positive OPK on Thursday morning and Thursday night, then I tested again on Friday and it was negative again, andnegative today (Saturday) does that mean that I ovulated Thursday night or Friday morning before I tested?? Or is it not possible to tell unless your temping? :confused: I hope we all caught our eggs!!! Heres to a great 2WW!!!

LH is produced in the mornings, so you O'd sometime between 8 and 36hrs after Thursday morning, so I'd say you O'd Friday?


HI to everyone. Glad to see people into their TWWs! I (finally) O'd today and my OH is out of the country....:hissy: so at least I'm pretty certain of my chances this month! I have my progesterone test tomorrow, so at least I can feel like I'm doing something 'productive' this month.

Good luck to all :)

Thanks ladies, hopefully I did ovulate in the night on Thursday or Friday that way a whole bunch of fresh sperm were sitting there waiting for my little eggy!!! :happydance:

Sarah: That is a major bummer, but at least you ovulated right?? That is exciting!! Sometimes just knowing that I am not having lots of fertility problems and that at least my periods are normal keeps me comforted to go on with this crazy process!!

Hello and welcome Reedy!

know what you mean about symptoms...can be hard to tell...
I was almost sure I was pregnant last month...I even had "morning sickness"....
I am trying not to think too much about any possible symptoms this months....

good luck! hope you get your BFP!

Reedy
Sep 24th, 2008, 17:31 PM
Thanks Hekate

Its so hard not to think about symptoms I'm doing my best not to but everytime I get something new I imediatly think 'ooh is that a symptom' :rofl:

Hope you get your :bfp: soon x

Hi all - had a lovely dream last night that I had a lovely baby boy and when I woke up I was sooo sad.. and now I am sad cause I feel it will never happen... sorry for the :cry:

everhopeful
Sep 24th, 2008, 20:04 PM
Hi Tanya,

Sorry you are feeling down but perhaps the dream is a sign of things to come!!

I have days when I feel crappy. I have been trying for over a year now and each month seems to be a big slap in the face!!

Have you tried things like, finding a route that you would walk baby and buggy down? Or made a wish list of baby furniture? Sometimes I do that just to convince myself that one of these days it WILL happen!!

Really hope that you get your :bfp: this month!!

Lots of baby dust to you..:dust::dust::dust:

Welcome Reedy!!!

Tanya, I have had those dreams before :hugs: You will get pregnant!! We ALL will get pregnant one of these days!!!

I am headed into 6 DPO so I am getting closer! :happydance: Hope everyone is doing okay!!! ARe we just about ready to dance in circles and scream over our :bfp:???

Does anyone have any plans on how they are going to tell DH?? I read a really cute one the other day (might have even been on here) When you have your time that you talk about the day, to refer to everything that happened that day as "we" example: "Oh today we woke up feeling a little gross, we ate a banana for breakfast, we were a little late for work, then at work we got so upset.. lalala.. now we are so glad to be home and we would really like a chocolate!!" OR I was thinking of getting a build-a-bear and recording my voice into it of "Your going to be a Daddy, we are pregnant!!"

everhopeful
Sep 25th, 2008, 09:55 AM
Hi all,

Like you Tiffers, I had been thinking about how to tell my DH the news! trying to think of cute romantic ways that he would remember forever but I am sure when it happens I will just burst out the loo with a stick in my hand saying "Its positive, its positive, its bloody positive!!!"

Still, I would love to have the composure to plan something lovely!!

2 more days to go until I can test! Lets hope that we are all screaming out good news soon with our :bfp:


:dust::dust::dust:

Hi Tiffers
I was planning on looking at the test with DH I'd be too excited to plan something cool I'd just mess it up :rofl:

Sarah+
Sep 25th, 2008, 11:23 AM
Welcome Reedy :)

SO exciting that people are getting close to testing time....

Tiffers - I just love the whole "We" idea. That is so cute and I think it's a really good idea to visualise the results we want to see. Oh, and it turns out that I actually didn't ovulate while DH was away as I had my CD21 progesterone on Monday :( I got my pos OPK on Sat (CD19) but had a stomach bug the sane day and was really sick, so may be that's it or my body went on strike as there wasn't much point this month! He's back tomorow so you never know, there could be a little egg waiting for a second chance!

:hug: to all

Reedy
Sep 25th, 2008, 11:29 AM
Thanks Sarah & good Luck hope you still manage to catch the egg x

Hi everyone,
Hope you are well! Welcome Reedy!

Sorry, I haven't posted in a couple of days as I have been all over the place!

Tiffers, that is so cute about 'how to tell DH'. My DH asks me every couple of days if it is time to test yet :rofl: so I'm not sure I would get a chance to surprise him! :rofl:

Sarah, sorry you are ill. I hope you are feeling better soon!

I'm 11dpo today, same as Tanya and hoping to test at the weekend. Anyone else testing this weekend?
:hug:

I'm 12dpo today but have this strange feeling its not my month I was really positive last week but dont know now maybe I'm just trying not to get my hopes up.

Does everyone that gets their :bfp: have an implantation bleed & can you always be aware of it???

Munchkin
Sep 25th, 2008, 18:58 PM
Reedy, no everyone does not have IB. In fact, most don't have it.
I didn't with my first pg - if I did, I didn't notice it.

everhopeful
Sep 25th, 2008, 19:31 PM
Hi All

I hope everyone is doing ok!!

Munchkin- I am 12dpo today so will be testing on Saturday. I am feeling a bit crampy already though so not holding out too much hope. Or can that be a sign?? I never know!!

Reedy - My friend is a couple of months pregnant with her 3rd child and never had implantation bleeding so I don't think everyone gets it at all!!

Wishing us all the best of luck and hoping that we all get our :bfp: soon!!!!

:dust::dust::dust:

hekate
Sep 25th, 2008, 22:42 PM
reedy - I think it is the minority of women who get implantation bleeding

reedy and everhopful - I am impressed you have not tested yet....not sure I could wait that long...and I thought I was doing well this month not having tested yet...8 DPO...:rofl::rofl::rofl:

Good luck to all of you!

Not really many symptoms. I've had light cramping for the last 3 days which I think is supposed to be you making room for baby. Lots of CM and sore boobs!!

Good luck to all of you!! Really hope you all get your :bfp:

Hey Sarah
Still havent tested & I'm going slightly mad bcus of it :rofl:
I just dont know what to do AF still isnt here & i have quite watery cm sorry tmi x
I'm so tempted to go get a test but I'm so nervous in case its :bfn: :cry:
Also are you supposed to the test with FMU?? or can you do it at any point of the day???
Nobody told me that TTC would be so bloody confusing :rofl:

Munchkin
Sep 28th, 2008, 11:37 AM
Hi guys,
Hope everyone is well.
Reedy, it's best to test with FMU. Glad to hear :witch: hasn't arrived yet.
I'm afraid I'm out for this cycle :(
I hope that you guys get your :bfp: soon.
:hug:
Mx

Sarah+
Sep 28th, 2008, 14:42 PM
So sorry to hear that Munchkin :hugs:


There's something to be said for waiting to test Reedy... kind of exciting if you can wait! Your AF not arriving is a great start! I agree, that FMU is best, though I think the rule is after 14DPO you can test with any, but you'll get a clearer answer with FMU. Good luck :)


I'm a bit all over the place. I had my pos OPK at CD19, but then no ovulation(sick). Then pos again yesterday (well I think, very nearly as dark 2nd line) at CD26 and with EWCM but no temp dip today.... another very nearly as dark tonight.... and now I have a back ache... AF due sometime between yesterday and tomorrow.... who knows!!!!

Wishing everyone a good week :)

Hey Reedy, you must be like 16 DPO now? And a few days late? I'm revising my advise! It must be driving you crazy by now.

Well I couldnt put it off any longer & took a test yesterday with a CB digi & :bfn: :cry: had a good old cry with DH (he was so lovely) & a bit of a cry last night too :cry:
Although still no sign of AF I was going to test again on wednesday if she still wasnt here then moved it to friday now I've decided I'm just not going to test at all bcus i felt so crap seeing that :bfn: I'm going to leave it a good while & if she still isnt here by next week (6th-12 Oct) I'll try again but not sure yet I'll keep you all updated x x x

Good luck everyone for next month x :dust:

Hey, don't give up yet! There are many cases where people get :bfn: even well after they're late, then go on to get :bfp: :) How sensitive was the test you used? (You can check on www.peeonastick.com). So sorry that it wasn't the news you wanted, but it still could be. And even if not next week, then very soon :)

:hug:



Edit: Ignore my qu about the brand. You mentioned the digi.. blonde moment

Sep 29th, 2008, 11:27 AM

As long as AF stays away I still have a little bit of hope I just wish I knew either way so I could get on with things rather than being stuck in Limbo

Hows things with you? x

Weird:dohh: Pos OPK at CD26 with EWMC for several days ... but now spotting/back pain....? I think AF will be here tomorrow. Somewhat confusing.

Is being late normal for you, or pretty rare?

Very unusual but I've been on the pill for nearly 7 years but can always remember my periods being around 28 days I've never gone a whole month without AF showing up

Could spotting be implantation?? Sorry I'm useless at this sort of thing I'm not clued up enough x

I was on the pill for about ten years. Before that I was 28 days, without fail. Now I'm a bit less regular. My spotting is prob not implant bl as DH was until until Sat! (I'd have some explaining to do!). And if I did manage to ov late (i.e. when I got that pos OPK CD26...) it would be too soon :(

You could always do a blood test if you just wanted an answer. Don't you just love the waiting! TTC - so much less romantic than imagined:dohh:

Reedy
Sep 29th, 2008, 15:05 PM
