Please ignore my last two messages, cant do anything right tonight. There is a new thread "Anyone else trying to get pg and want to talk about it?"

bunny2 · 08/07/2003 22:35

This thread is no more. Please go to Anyone else trying to get pregnant? 4.

bunny2 · 08/07/2003 22:30

I'll start a new one Bayleaf.

bayleaf · 08/07/2003 17:45

Fun fun fun eh Dot?! Who'd do this for a lark? I'm sure we'll look back in years to come and smile - but I'm pretty damn fed up with it at the moment - and I'm sure you can't be enjoying it much either! My 'down reg' scan has been brought forward to tomorrow as if I wait till MOnday then there will be a problem with the PGD testing that I want to do as the lab shuts for a week - so I really hope I'm ready early - otherwise my plans will all have to be changed...
Incidentally girls can we start another thread - for ttcers as this one is getting too long and takes ages to load on my old computer...

So I'm back playing the old waiting game - 2 weeks until I can test. It's been quite good (in a bizarre way) having other health tests/worries, 'cos I'm not obsessing quite as much about whether I've got pregnant yet - but give me another 10 days and I'll be trying to stop myself testing every five minutes..!

quackers · 08/07/2003 09:08

Yep, I'm the same day bunny2 - 18. I have quite a short cycle though so expect to come on Tues/WEd next week, so a week to go! How are you sure you've conceived??? I've somehow forgotten really the feelings I had in the last 2 pregnancies. I too have felt stuff going on down there in the last few days and sounds awful but had thrush for last couple of days. Is this pg related due to hormones??? Oh it's killing me!!! Sunday I got upset cos I was convinced I hadn't, then yesterday I saw like the milk stone type things on my boobs, but that just might have been because I was prodding them!!!

From me too, sibble. Fingers crossed, bunny2!

bunny2 · 07/07/2003 22:14

Forgot to add farewell for now to Sibble. Happy hols.

bunny2 · 07/07/2003 22:13

I am on day 18 so 10 more days to go. I have been having some very strange pains just above my groin, is it something implanting in my womb or the takeway vindaloo I stuffed last night? I am so sure I have conceived thanks to my new bestfriend Mr Clomid. The waiting is agony for me. Quackers, we are synchronised.

hewlettsdaughter · 07/07/2003 19:13

How long left to wait quackers?

quackers · 07/07/2003 19:11

Forgotm2t! Sore boobs yes but I get them anyway with pmt so won't be putting it down to that just yet. Boobs ached loads with last two though so we'll see.
Fingers crossed!

Hi big bird - well you know what you're on about! Good luck chuck!!!

BigBird · 07/07/2003 16:12

sorry! losing the run of myself with all this new lingo i've learnt! It's a whole new world!

jojo21 · 07/07/2003 15:32

while im also waiting for my lazy baby to come out (im 41+ weeks) im waiting for one of you luvly ladies to let me know that its happening for you too! all those sleepless nights cos your bump is in the way and you cant get comfy, sore & swollen ankles, bad back and ooh... sore nipples! and thats all the good stuff! just wait for the heartburn which makes you think you can breathe fire! but then theres the good stuff- baby showers, flowers and chocolates, life becomes an all you can eat buffet (well it did for me and i've put on 3stones ) i got a feeling in my bones that this time next week one of you will say 'guess what...im preggers' and i cant wait! keep trying girls dont let me down!

M2T · 07/07/2003 13:19

Sore boobs quackers..... a good sign surely?

quackers · 07/07/2003 13:04

Wow that was very technical! Think I know what you mean though!!!
Hope its successful for you!!! I've got to wait about 10/11 days yet. it's a real bummer waiting. I don't think I am though. Feel a bit moody and boobs sore.
Good luck all!

BigBird · 07/07/2003 11:29

I did have an O quackers thanks for asking. I had a +ve opk on friday (cd11), felt very achy on cd12 (ov pains?), had plenty of CM until cd13 and temp rose significantly this morning (cd 14). So we're all bd'ed out for this month methinks

I'm so glad I started all this stuff rather than just going the 'every 2 days for the entire cycle' route. It's a lot less work!!

Good luck to everyone waiting

quackers · 07/07/2003 08:59

Oh Sibble , did it for you. You'll be sorely missed!!! If you still have no period in a couple of days try again. It's hard to know when is right after m/c but there'sonly so long you cann wait! I widh you the very best for your trip and look forward to speaking in OCT!!!!!!
LOL xxxxx

sibble · 07/07/2003 05:53

Well did test day early, one of those you can do up to 3 days earlier (fancied a glass of wine or two tonight!!), as expected was negative. (cannot do sad face!) So have put hold on flights home to cheer me up (imagine smiley face!) and will stop trying until I get back, will hopefully be coming back to UK from 23/8-19/9 depending on whether new job lets me have the month off they said I could have. Actually feel better now the pressure is off for a while am not entirely sure I am really to try after m/c, find the countdown from trying to period day too stressful, flip from being relatively "normal" to some kind of psycho. Will keep popping into thread to hopefully see everybody graduate to others threads and hopefully nobody will still be here in Oct when I return.
Good luck everybody

jojo21 · 07/07/2003 00:31

just a good luck to all you girls! hope its a fertile night for you all

bunny2 · 06/07/2003 23:18

Hi Quackers, HD, Sibble and Egypt and anyone else here ... the hives were not so bad today. Egypt, I started on day2 for 5 days. Good luck again to us all

Egypt · 06/07/2003 22:23

sp - clmomiD i mean!
Forgot to ask, on what day of your P did you start the clomid? was it day 3. If so, I've really got to hold it in until Weds!

Egypt · 06/07/2003 22:20

Hi Bunny2
Sorry to hear about the hives thingy - never heard of it, but obv not nice. Let's hope you get lucky this month. Well, off to docs on Fri 11 July - just hoping that my P doesnt come until weds at the earliest, although I reckon it's going to come tomorrow - which is a miracle I can even tell as I have PCO as you know, and dont usually have Ps. Anyway - depending on blood results, he should give me the clomis and then we are away - providing I don't have P before or shall have to wait ANOTHER month. Don;t you just love all this waiting? Speak soon xx

sibble · 06/07/2003 21:12

Hi Quackers, it's the countdown from "trying" to period day that sends you almost insane doesn't it. Hope it is good news for you this month, have fingers crossed for you (and everbody else). A m/c certainly messes your cycle up. Keep posting, am thinking of you. Am doing my test tomorrow if no period, have boobs like melons at the moment but am sure am not pregnant so if I knew how to do a sad face would probably post one tomorrow.

quackers · 06/07/2003 09:45

What a pain! Hope you got lucky too! Well I have to say I'm getting more paranoid by the day. We did it on day 11 and 12 as I was ovulating and since day 14 I've had such achy boobs. I do get them with pmt so I'm not putting it down to pg just yet but my cycles are getting shorter and shorter which really worries me. Since m/c they have gone down now to about 24/25 days and have lutenising hormone day 9. If they get any shorter I'm scared I won't conceive and feel annoyed because last month was perfect, had the cervical mucus and evrything but dh wanted to wait one more month. SORRY I'm rambling but writing it down really helps and might ease these frustrations!!!
