First time TTC?!! Let's get through this together!! Part 2

Ooh Summer, I've got a good feeling about you this month... I'm keeping everything crossed for you!!

Saz, how are you feeling? I note that your boobs are sore. Mine are too but I can't use that as a possible symptom because mine have been like that since the last PG. Never suffered with it before so quite annoying really!! So what stage are you at now, how many weeks, I've lost count!!

Hope everyone else is Ok...

I am trying not to get excited but still no AF symptoms, i am trying to tell myself that it wouldnt do to get PG this month if i get a job interview but i know that i would be absolutely over the moon!!! I am only on CD29 14DPO but you can set your clock by my doings so will keep you posted.

Dawn

also Dawn i do understand about your current situ as my colleagues husband works really long hours and she has a 2 year old and unborn child also to deal with. She is really upset about it and i am trying to cheer her up too. Things will look up and i am sure you will get your house. If you dont then it is not meant to be and a much nicer house is on the horizon for you.

BSL i love it when we hit the internet after a bottle of wine!!!

saz here's to sensitive (.)(.)'s aww bless!

big waves to everyone else //////

Morning all,

Summerbird I'm doing fine thanks apart from sore ()() (they really hurt - sorry TMI) and slight queasiness but I'm still sure I shouldnt be feeling sick yet?
Soooo when will you be testing??? lol My fingers are well and truly crossed for you hun!!

MAF Glad to hear from you, but sorry that your boys are going thru times.

Dawn I really really hope things work out with the house. As for your chart, I've never done or seen one of these so would be of no help whatsoever, but it could still work out. Also sorry to hear that your work is making you not have much time with DH

BSL glad you had a nice night and that you enjoyed the vino no seriously, I'm glad you had a good night and the little 'un cheered you up

It's a weird foggy day today

Hi all,

Sorry to moan, just feeling really down today. I think working 14 hour days, problems with the house and TTC have all taken their toll.

At the moment DH is on earlies so leaves for work at 5.30am. I then get up at 6.30am, take Tilly out, shower, have breakfast and start work at 8.00am. I then finish at around 10pm and go to bed. I see DH for about half an hour at dinner time and that's it.

We only managed to TTC 4 times around OV time, but I don't think I'm PG. Looked at my chart today and overlayed other similar charts to mine and they were all OV charts... But then maybe that's a good thing since we might not have a house to bring any DC up in anyway...

Sorry guys if I've ruined your Friday with my moaning already. I really should feel grateful that I have a lovely DH, a job which pays well, a good family and my lovely doggy and kitty...

Anyway, going to see that other psychic on Monday, maybe she'll cheer me up...

BSL, I hope that you had a lovely birthday, it sounds like you enjoyed your time with the little one. Hopeing you're feeling better today.

Summer Keeping everything crossed for you that you don't get AF today.

Hey MAF, Questions and anyone else that I might have missed out....

oh god dawn how frustrating! estate agents are such sharks (sorry if there are any here!). will keep everything crossed for you!

BSL i have seen your pic of Baby Bells and she is a lickle peach! I hope she cheers you up tonight and hope you are enjoying yourself

heres me stats then (dawn i have put you in the right order as MAF intended!!)

Bluestar: Cycle 3 CD33 (of 35 this cycle) 12DPO
Linwin: Cycle 3 CD29
Summerbird: Cycle 7 CD28 13DPO
Thandeka: Cycle 1 CD25 10DPO

Wildfig: Cycle 4 CD3

It is DDay tomorrow as AF is due, no symptoms of either AF or PG so am not sure really!

Welcome back MAF good to hear from you. They can put cat flaps in almost everything now - my friend has one in her wall!! You must be fed up not having your DW/P living with you. And sorry to hear the boys are going through it at the mo, i shall send my virtual hug vibes your way //////

Baby dust and yoghurt pot success for us all **

Sorry for messing up the order of the stats MAF!!

OMG BSL, sorry about the X-posts and not seeing the results at the docs.

I can so understand that you feel really upset right now. Did the doc say that there could have been an issue with the test? What do they mean by "normal sperm"? I hope that you've tried to enjoy your birthday evening, even considering all that.

So house news isn't great unfortunately. Finally got confirmation that the mortgage has been approved today. We've taken out a mortgage where the lender is happy for people to use a personal loan as part payment for the deposit (which most banks/building societies don't), however, because they've done a credit search to get the mortgage approved, I tried to apply for the loan today through another bank and they didn't approve it. Instead they're referred the application to the underwriters. We're asking for £15k so I'm hoping that as the money was quite a bit, that maybe that's why they're being extra careful. We won't hear now for 5 days so I'm really worried that we won't get it and then we won't be able to afford to get the house.... anyone want to lend us £15k?

So it's still a waiting game. I then found out that because the mortgage was approved, the estate agents took £739 from my bank account for the survey!!! So we may end up with a survey on a house that we can't buy and we can't get the money back!! I just burst into tears when I went onto my internet banking and saw what they'd done!!

Anyway, everyone else has got problems so I'm just going to shut up now!!

Bluestar: Cycle 3 CD33 (of 35 this cycle) 12DPO

Evening ladies

Summer i'm still here, just been really busy at work and trying to sort out getting a catflap in a double glazed window so DP can finally move in here (long story that i'll bore you with another time!!!)

BSL thats pants about DP's results but as others and your GP have said more tests need to be done. But HAPPY BIRTHDAY, grab a glass of bubbly and enjoy

Dawn hope everythings moving smoothly with the house, i remember how stressful that can be

crunchy and masala i am so sorry for your loss and send lots of hugs your way

and hello Newbies and welcome. This is an amazing thread with the most amazing people. Good luck on your TTC journeys, i hope they are short and sweet

Fairy dust and yoghurt pots for all

fingers crossed ladies, we will do this

x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x

The boys are back from holiday but have come home to some bad news which we are trying to support them with and its heart breaking

Had my first TTC acupuncture today which was great but made me so relaxed i feel asleep in the team meeting OOPS!

Saz hows things going?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BSL !!!!!!!!! I echo saz that you and DH should have a special night together to take your mind off it (easier said than done i know but please try - for tonight - for summerbird!)

sazzzzzle how are you and the lickle bean doing?

Dawn house news now!

Lynsy did i say hi before? if not hello and welcome to our gang!

Just popped on quickly to say hi.....hi!

Dawn fingers are still crossed that all goes ok for the house

Summerbird hope the Medium lady was right

Love and hugs to all
Saz xx

Happy BIRTHDAY BSL I hope your day gets better, sounds like things are the shits for you right now.
My Thoughts are with you!!!!!!!!!

Well it sounds like your DH is doing all the right things. Please try not to get too disheartened, my dp has had 4 SA done this year and all have come back different, so could be a different sotry in a couple of months. I will go home and have a look at all the vitmins DP is taking and let you know, I can't even pronounce them let alone spell them . Some people don't believe that these types of things will do any good, but hey it's worth a try.
I know how hard it is as we are just venturing down the assisted conception route, and this is one rollercoaster I want to get of off sooner rather than later.

I wish you the best of luck and Happy birthday - Try and enjoy it.

I think we all have the right to be pissed off at the cards we've been dealt, but I don't think we should be pissed for too long. We need to take that anger and turn it into ACTION!! Okay thats my speeach for the day LOL. So I've researched a bunch of natural things to get AF started. I go see my DR on Monday and would love to tell her I made AF start all on my own. Really don't want to go on Provera again! So I'm taking Black Cohosh, drinking parsley tea, and taking Vitimin C.....I'll let ya know if any of it works LOL.
babydust to all
xoxoxox

Hey of course you are allowed to be angry BSL, i too am sending big virtual hugs your way. This is the forum to vent your frustration so vent away xx

Hello Girls

Sorry to gatecrash your thread but just wanted to share something with BSL.

My DP has low motility (35%) and 1% normal forms, sperm are very complex things and results could be different from one day to the next as many factors can affect the results. So I hope you don't mind me saying but could be worth your DH making a few lifestlye changes, my DP has given up alcohol, cut out caffeine (these 2 things are supposed to have a big effect on sperm), he also takes a whole host of vitimins and has accupunture, it does take 3 months for lifestyle changes to take effect with sperm, so not much fun for your DH, but if your Dr suggested another SA in 2 months if you start now you may well see an improvement in the next results although I can't gaurantee this. The lady we see for accupunture specialises in fertility and has had couple go on to get pregnant naturally with only 1% normal forms - so there is hope

I hope you don't mind me posting just thought it might be helpful.

I wish you all the best of luck girls and lots of BFP's.

Sorry - my message was for BSL not Summerbird - but Summerbird can have hugs too - HUGS for everyone!

Big hugs Summerbird. You're allowed to be angry. But please don't give up hoping. Just shoot the dealer

BSL i always think that as long as you know what the problem is then you can take steps to fix it, it is more frustrating when you dont know. The blessing is that your DH is not high risk of TC which is a huge relief.

Onwards and upwards so to speak! The 0% result does sound odd but your GP seems to be on board. Good luck!

My AF due tomorrow and no PG symptoms so far, i am not upset about it this month tho as i have other things on my mind such as the job app (i should hear next week if i get to round 1 of interviews) and my blocked tubes (or as my friend put it 'YouTube'!)

Happy Thursday everyone!
