Hi yesmum, how's things? CD55 Have you still resisted testing? Do you just know you're not? Hows your Mum?

mum2sam · 23/04/2007 17:44

hiya all hope everyone is ok.Well i tried one of those ovulation tests friday and finally got a positive so had a very busy weekend . I definitely feel i have did everything i could this weekend tc-we have even tried that pre-seed this time. So we are just chilling and having a break and hopefully AF will saty away.

HI. mum to sam good luck.

Af arrived today after being a week late. i have never had so many emotions. Feeling quite low at the moment as this TTC has gone on for ages. Will go and see the Dr and see what's going on.

Hope all well with everyone else.

Hi Lexie. So sorry af arrived - it's bloody horrible isn't it. I know you were worried about luteal phase length - do you think it was any longer this month - because if the B6 worked then maybe next month could be better?
I've got my appt with the doc tomorrow to get my blood results. I'm just hoping to get a referral or something that will help give me a longer LP. I too used B6 and actually found my LP was shorter this month - but I think my cycle is a bit loopy after having ds.
Go and see your gp - just having the appt has made me feel better as if I'm doing something about it.
Try not to feel too low. When I do, I tell myself that I managed to make a baby very easily first time around so surely I can do it again.

Hi all.

Surprisingly chirpy today. Had a long chat with my mum (She doesn't live in the UK and didn't know we were TTC) and she said that they tried for a year for me and i'm no. 2.

Since having DD AF has been v. heavy so may go to the dr and just talk generally about AF and babies. Also had complications at birth with DD so not sure if that is affecting things.

Will go now i feel less emotional and can talk about PG/AF without crying.

Thanks all

jhyesmum · 27/04/2007 16:41

Oh lexie you're really going through the mill at the mo ((((hugs)))). You'll be ok, keep thinking positive.

Annie - I missed my Jan AF too. Only other time I missed was when I was PG with DS. A trip to the docs I think.

What are we all up to this week end??

Hi

Really should join May but just can't face it at the mo so will probably just read the thread to keep up with everyone.

English through and through but mum and dad love traveling and decided to sail round the world. They have made it to greece and are staying put for the summer. So making the most of it and visiting them at every opportunity!!!

Doing ok, have started the OV sticks and am feeling positive.

mum2sam · 05/05/2007 10:34

time4two · 06/05/2007 20:46

Hi all, I have a DD that is 7 months and I am going to start trying for number 2. People keep saying that I should enjoy DD first but my dream is to have two close together. Please tell me I'm not being selfish?

elsieanjoanne · 07/05/2007 22:05

hi dont think its selfish at all my dd 11months an we ttc #2 it took 18onths to concieve her an like you i dont want a big age gap dont want her to get to jealous an i think the younger she is the less likely that this will happen good luck ttc

jhyesmum · 11/05/2007 17:31

Anyone still about??

buttercupbabe · 11/05/2007 19:43

Hi jhyesmum I'm here! How are things with you? How's mum? I'm seeing the specialist in 2 weeks time. Will be glad when that day arrives. How are things with you and ttc?

Lexie100 · 12/05/2007 11:35

i'm still reading but not posting much. I was getting a bit obsessive and i really need to relax about the whole TTC if it's ever going to happen.

Now on TWW. How about you lot???

buttercupbabe · 12/05/2007 15:25

Hi Lexie. Good to hear from you. I know exactly how you feel. I hope that the specialist will prescribe something to lengthen my lp and if he does I am going to try to stay off here for my own sanity. I'm cd 24 today and have the most awful pmt. The only good thing about this is that at least I can't symptom spot as I know my lp is too short to conceive. I'm really hoping it all goes well for you this month

jhyesmum · 13/05/2007 10:30

HI Girls! Hope everything goes ok Butter. It will happen Lexie.

My last AF was 25th Feb. Been to the docs who insisted on a PG test and of course as i had already told her it was neg. Got to have blood tests.

Feeling really bloated and crappy.

It's been a rollercoaster with Mum. She's still with us and is fighting all the way.

To cut a very long story short,they have found the primary cancer which is Bone cancer and it is in her hip. She's got to have a hip replacement. She's not well enough for that at the mo, so we are trying to get her built up and her blood sorted so she can have it done. That will be the worst cancer out.

She's been having chemo, but they are stopping that and she starts radiotherepy tomorrow.

She has secondaries in her pelvis, coccyx, neck and head. But at the moment they are quite small, so hopefully the treatment will reduce them.

She is wheelchair bound now because she's not allowed to put any weight on her hip, but as she sat down all the time she keeps getting water infections.

Sorry that was so long!

Anyway, BD isn't really on the cards at the moment, for one because AF hasn't shown i feel shit, and secondly the worry about mum doesn't really put you in the mood!!

Keep going girls, we'll get another BFP soon!!

buttercupbabe · 13/05/2007 10:42

Hi jhyesmum. No wonder your af hasn't arrived with all the stress in your life. The first thing my gp said when I went to see her was the impact that stress can have on your cycles.
Sounds like your mum is putting up a good fight bless her. I hope she's able to get her hip sorted soon, and then they can deal with the others.
I hope your af arrives soon - then at least you'll know where you are with your cycles. I too am waiting for af to arrive. I'm the bitch from hell at the mo and feel fat and just want to lie on the sofa eating chocolate... Poor dh and ds.

jhyesmum · 13/05/2007 11:53

Butter i know what you mean!! I have been such a cow. Poor DH is really taking a bashing at the moment and so is DS.

I've got terrible period pains and back ache, so I know AF is around the corner. But the question is what corner!!

The thing is that I really want to start running as I want to start raising money for Macmillan cancer. I'm so fustrated because I can't start with a bad back and feeling soooo heavy. I know that when i start i'm going to feel great and lose weight too, but i need to get AF here first i think (first time in my life i've wanted her to call!!)

Yeah, mum is really do well. I just want them to get the hip out as that is the think that is making her imobile and unable to live her life. Plus the hip is the thing that is killing her. When they eventually take it out i want to burn it!!
