Kerry 8? Bloody hell! I too am "blessed" with a fairly fertile family. Got 1 aunt, 2 uncles and 12 cousins. Looks like my cousins are similarly blessed (many children already), just not me (yet?) Hmm

Because of the Clomid I have definite cramps that let me know which side it's coming...I think because of the cycts I have it hurts more than it usually would.The cramping went away anyway...don't think it was the egg dropping-too soon for me.It's been dropping from the side with the tube to no avail..so I guess it doesn't matter~I just need a miracle!!Red I'm really rooting for you...I just don't want you to be let down...that feeling really stinks:( did the bleeding stop?for me it lasted a few days..but was never more than smears when I wiped...why does this have to be so hard....my grandmother had 8 children for Petes sake!!!

OMG OMG OMG red, fingers crossed and good luck!!

Thingymajigs · 29/04/2013 20:15

I haven't heard of that. Yes, I am under 35, at least for the next 3 years anyway. I'll google it, thanks res.Smile

RedRobin1 · 29/04/2013 20:13

I don't know starting to feel like implantation bleeds, bfp and good news are a bit of a myth. I just can't get my hopes up. Will find out in a day or two if its AF come early.

I have had a very stressful month with work, so keep thinking I probably released a bad egg, or my uterine lining is malfunctioning and AF is going to arrive early.

kerry with the cramping in ovaries - I tend to find I cramp in both and never know which end the eggs going to come out....! fx you get cramping in the other ovary with the tube

resipsa · 29/04/2013 20:03

thingy are you under 35? Sorry, can't remember. On the ivf front, if you are, have you thought about egg share? It cuts the cost by about 90%.

Thingymajigs · 29/04/2013 20:01

Oh, I really hope its that implantation bleeding I hear so much about. Good luck red. Smile

resipsa · 29/04/2013 19:59

Eek red! You wouldn't feel different yet cause you don't 'feel' the HCG until it hits the bloodstream a couple of days later. Keep us posted!

TMI alert!

I have just been to the loo and had a chunk of brown spotting and some bright red spotting too. On CD25, 8-10dpo, sore boobs gone, is this AF arriving early or the good kind of bleed?

I am not due till 7th May Sad not getting my hopes up as don't feel any different.

twinklestar2 · 29/04/2013 14:36

I hear ya auntie on the druggies and bad people who get pregnant, while us ladies who are planning to have children responsibly and really really want them have to suffer. It's not fricking fair!

auntiemoo · 28/04/2013 22:53

Bloody hell I really should preview my posts before I post them. I hope you can decipher that there code!!! Predictive text and anger are a poor poor combination!

auntiemoo · 28/04/2013 22:51

Oh winkle I hear you bird. I have been furious like you on loads if occasions. Something that depends on the continuation of the species should surely be easy. Also having it drummed into you as a teenager that getting upduffed is the easiest thing that must be avoided at all costs really doesn't prepare you for situations like ours. They make it sound so simple which adds the te conplete feeling of failure for me each month that goes by without a bfp. The other thing that pisses me off is the amount of over drinking over weight or recreational drug users that get upduffed as soon as they drop their kecks. I worked in custody for the local police for a while and there we people I just couldn't deal with because if the situation. It's very unfair, it makes you depressed, feel like an absolute pshyco and then guilty for being less than trolled for others when they get their BFP's be them planned or not!!! I understand you completely and have my fx that you get yours really soon Flowers xxx

twinklestar2 · 28/04/2013 22:28

Oh no thingy, you didnt say anything insensitive! I'm just pissed off with the whole thing!

Its just after all this time its hard to have hope. It makes you think why will this month be different to all those other months? It makes me very sad.

Thingymajigs · 28/04/2013 22:11

Sorry if I've said something insensitive. Wasn't intentional.

RedRobin1 · 28/04/2013 21:55

I hear you winkle I was so angry and over come with emotion today. Just don't know when it will be my time. I am so angry frustrated and sad.

I'm sorry so many of us are having a very hard time with ttc and the disappointment that comes every month when AF arrives:( As hard as it is we can't lose hope..someway,somehow we will all get what our hearts are longing for.May not be how we have planned or envisioned but a blessing will be ours someday!!Let's just keep trying to make our dream come true...I'm sure once AF arrives for me next month my tune will change....but I'm optimistic for now...Hope our prayers are answered very soon:)

It's been nearly 2 fucking years!! I'm so angry!

Thingymajigs · 28/04/2013 17:44

Sorry that everyone is feeling down. There comes a point when you've tried everything in every single order imaginable and so losing a bit of hope is understandable. I googled "private ivf costs" again, perhaps in some faint hope that the costs would be within our price range. But unsurprisingly they don't have a budget range. Its natural or nothing for us so I guess I just carry on but perhaps make it less pivotal to our day to day lives.
I can't wait to see everyones BFP announcements on here. It will happen eventually, its simply a matter of time. Smile

twinklestar2 · 28/04/2013 15:24

I hear you red. I just don't know what to think, feel or say anymore about this whole process. It's never going to happen naturally for me, I have to hope and pray that IVF works for me. Utterly utterly miserable.

RedRobin1 · 28/04/2013 14:52

I am gearing up for cycle 13. I don't feel pregnant at all. Just utterly depressed with ttc. Depressed just describes it all.

Sorry winkle don't know what to say. Hope next month is our month? I just don't have any hope left.

DulcetMoans · 28/04/2013 09:15

Thanks twinkle. Sorry about the BFN. Fx for next time though.

Think I am going to have one of those disappointing months where you convince yourself you could be and feel stupid when AF arrives! Must stay rational!
