Hugh enjoys ISW and his love affair with Doreen. He watches out for skittle tits and weepyitis. Mrs Arseholey Fucknut (Af) shows up when you least want her but brings wine and soft cheese as a consolation prize.

We don't have rules as such but expect to be talked down from the ledge with kind and well meaning but firm words if you get too hysterical. But most importantly don't convince yourself you're pregnant in the tww That is paramount!

We don't get a lot of baby dust in these here parts. We want a fanny full of determined Doreen, not unicorn farts and gnome tears with extra sparkle. We've been going a while now so the novelty has somewhat worn off and we're slightly battle scarred and bruised in the cervix area.

Post your stats and add your dates. We have a register thanks to kats stats I am resident piss stick queen and if you don't test, you get a Starky's Star

When you post stats, add your predicted test/af date. We are currently running at about 49% pregnant with the grads thread over in ante-natal which we all hope to join soon.

I'm going to try for a year ever and then I'm going to stop trying xx

Evergreen15 · 22/03/2016 21:00

Jem good for you, really Smile You will be a lot happier than I am SmileThanks
Pug I totally get what you mean Grin Another waste of an egg and an awful lot of stress and sacrifices and sperm.... All for nada!!! Absolutely nada!!!
Maybe I should look for a new job and just dedicate myself to having a nice career and doing good things with my life Smile At least I would have more control over that.

I don't like when things are decided randomly, and I think this TTC is a lottery. I don't like lotteries

LovelyFishy · 22/03/2016 20:48

Congratulations Kwick!!! Super excited for you! SmileFlowers

Ni4444 · 22/03/2016 20:46

Oh Kwick!!!!! Your news has brought a tear to my eye!! What you have been through to get that second line! 😘😘😘😘😘😘 Congratulations for getting upduffed!! Wow. Life is about to change for you!!! How have you celebrated?!

SuchaJem · 22/03/2016 20:45

kwick that's just fantastic, so pleased for you :)

ever yes I really do believe it

Pugmummy87 · 22/03/2016 20:43

Waaaaah! Kwick!!!!!!!!! Congratulations!

Ever, I can see what you mean about feeling like it's becoming further away rather than closer, I can't help but think 'well that's another egg wasted'

Kwick709 · 22/03/2016 20:29

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

starky I was dying to say something to you!!!! I think we will have similar due dates....

jem I am feeling fine. I have been feeling a little sick in the mornings but I think this is in my head, and then I get cramps in the afternoon - again could be just in my head. I think I am about to go down with a cold - sore throat started a couple of hours ago - have just taken 2000mg of vit C... Would normally take a lemsip but that is VERBOTEN!!!!!!!
I also have to return to clinic tomorrow to pick up more medication - my progesterone levels are not where they want them to be so I have to take even more!!!

To be completely honest I am bricking it.... My age alongside the IVF means I have a high risk of MC... Need to take good care of myself but need to learn how!

HepKestrel · 22/03/2016 20:27

kwick Yey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!!

Evergreen15 · 22/03/2016 20:24

Kwick! GrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinStarStarStarStarStar fantastic congratulations!
Jem I wanted to understand how that makes sense to some people, do you believe that? I would love to believe that. But I don't see how that can be true. I wish it was Sad
I am having Wine
Not sure what my tactic will be this cycle... Pretty fed up with this TTC.

My best friend has been trying for a year and 3 months and nothing. They are both healthy and the same age as me and my OH. They will give up in a few months and just accept life without kids. I told her I think that the smartest idea Sad

RaeSkywalker · 22/03/2016 20:21

Oh my god! That's fantastic news kwick! Hurrah!!!! How are you feeling?

Kwick709 · 22/03/2016 20:11

And today's :)

Kwick709 · 22/03/2016 20:10

Here is photographic evidence from Saturday to Monday...

Kwick709 · 22/03/2016 20:09

So apologies that I have been evasive of late. I actually started testing on Saturday but was not sure I could trust the results (I injected HCG before the egg collection to trigger ovulation and it can stay in your system for a while and can give a false positive) but I am very happy to confirm that my BFP has been confirmed today :)

SuchaJem · 22/03/2016 20:08

I see what you mean ever, I guess that's how I like to see it.

Kwick709 · 22/03/2016 20:05

ct not sure about progesterone levels for after ovulation - but if preggers they like to see at least 100.

This is hard guys... This TTC malarkey. I competely get the comments about control... Imagine what this would have been like just 20 years ago...

Kwick709 · 22/03/2016 19:56

evergreen I am so sorry Flowers what a fucker Envy

elle same for you my lovely Flowers

kat great list - you are the best!

If you are going to take any vitamin B - like B6 - make sure you also take a vit B complex - otherwise you get out of whack. Also egg quality is very very important - milk, CoQ10 and vit E can help with that.

iPatches · 22/03/2016 19:28

Confused Ever - I'm sorry, that sucks. Coffee and wine for you.

Kat - I've got NO idea when AF is due. Based on my usual cycle, April 5. Based on last cycle, April 11. Shall we go with the middle, April 8?!

Evergreen15 · 22/03/2016 19:26

Since every month I get older, and age has a big part in this and we have a limited reserve of eggs... Aren't I getting further every month that I dont conceive?

HepKestrel · 22/03/2016 19:25

Sorry confused Flowers

island I think it will be Friday or Saturday, so a fun Easter weekend Wink

Evergreen15 · 22/03/2016 19:25

Jem I am not sure what people mean when they say that... I mean, how am I any closer? If anything I am further

SuchaJem · 22/03/2016 18:26

Thanks hon. I'm mentally already trying to think about next month to prepare for the flow tomorrow. I think the quicker I can move on mentally to the next cycle the better.

Each cycle we're getting closer to becoming mommas - remember that xx

Confusedcat1 · 22/03/2016 18:23

Thanks jem im still crossing my fingers for you lovey xxx

SuchaJem · 22/03/2016 18:22

Massive hug confused and FlowersChocolateWine for you xx
