I don't think bd can produce cm, but it can produce semen which looks very similar!

SHELY · 29/10/2004 16:20

hey munzzieb, you have a 3 month wait huh? that's good? me if i can't get an appt. within the month, i'll go crazy! i live in new york, so we are impatient folks, over here lol. so 6 months. have you gone through any testing yet, or too soon for all that? iam 29 yrs old, and they say at my age to wait over a year, but as long as my insurance covers the doctor bills, i go as early and as often as i want to go. hehe. i had a hysteroscalpogram last week, and it wasn't fun! ouch!! however i did learn that my tubes are not blocked, and my insides look normal. i think it's more frustrating this way, cause there is nothing to "fix". that sounds stupid i know, but not knowing what's wrong can be worse sometimes. i guess in the long run it's really not though. even though we weren't trying the whole time, me and my hubby have had unprotected sex for 3 1/2 years, and not even once did i conceive, so i think about that all the time. we always had so much sex, how could i be timing it wrong, if we did it all month long? who the heck knows. he's 13 years older then me, that's part of the reason why my clock is ticking, extra hard, ya know?? i had a son who was 9 1/2, evan, he passed away 2 months and 5 days ago. it's still really fresh!! you go on cause you have no choice but it's not easy, even though he was described as a miracle of modern medicine, being that he had survived 9 1/2 years, when he was not predicted to make it to 3 months old. doctors said to me when i brought him in at 6 weeks old, cause he stopped eating, that he had less brain function then any child they have ever seen live and breathe. said he'd be a vegatable for life, if he survived for a few months, and years later, even though he couldn't walk or do things normal children did, he survived almost 60 brain surgeries, 7 shunts replaced in his little head, and did things they said he'd never be able to do. i thought he'd live forever! i wanted him to outlive me, but it just did not happen that way. i know another baby, could never replace him, but i was trying to have a child, before hand. it may intensify the feeling a bit though. i just always wanted to be a mother, and at 19 when that happened, i was young but happy, and in one day, that dream got crushed, and i want a chance of living that dream again! thank god i did not have anymore children with his father, he was a very abusive man. my hubby now, is such a gem, and he'd really make an awesome father!! sorry to vent so much! it's easier for me to type then talk ya know. i hope your dreams come true very, very soon, all of you guys!! right now, iam stuck between, after ovulation and af. is this not the worst waiting period of the entire month. it can drive you crazy!! best of luck. w/b if you can!! dust to all

jeddah · 29/10/2004 19:05

all you 'down southers'!!!
anyone in yorkshire!

hester....well done on the cm info!

sallie you are ahead of me, tania and sliverlinig.....not long now....go for it girl!

bibi20 I know what you mean by things getting all to much,,,,,, we are sick of all the predictions too....going natural for a while and listening to my body more (they say it is a fabulous thing, the human body........but only if you listen to it and not try and work it out all the time!)

shely................what a gem you are...I bet you are a fabulous person!........at least you had your boy for 9 more years than you thought you would.........and I know another baby will never in a million years replace him........but, life moves on.........and it sounds like its your time to sahre your love with another child.

jeddah · 29/10/2004 19:10

Golds.........are you out there.......are you still alive!

jeddah · 29/10/2004 19:15

Shely I'm sending you all my baby dust

MunnzieB · 29/10/2004 19:58

Evening ladies. Do I count Jeddah?? although i'm a southern gal, hubby's from yorkshire, and i live there for about 2 yrs, so does that make me honery??

Unfortunatly Shely it is 3 motnhs, which is not soon enough for me, but hey, it is the NHS and we're lucky it's not longer! we've got as far as the 21 day prog. tests and the sperm count tests. We've only been trying for 6 months, but cos we live in wales now, and i've had a lot of hormone probs in the past incl. only having one Ovary. the dr agreed to test us sooner. My friend over the way has to wait until AF returns b4 her doctor will test, and b4 the pill she went 18 months without AF, so i guess i'm really lucky in a sence. That and with him away, at least i'll be able to start any treatment and hopefully be sorted by the time he comes home... only 10 weeks left to go woooo! (am in need of some serious baby juice!) lol. Any how Baby dust and positve thoughts to you all. I read once about if you imagion the sperm fertalizing the egg and the egg embedding after you've had intercourse that's ment to help, but I wouldn't be too sure on that one myself. I'm going to try ANGUS CATUS herbal remidy until I go to the Gyno. it's ment to help balance hormones and be a natural fertility aid?? (any things worth a try in my book thou the dr says as theres nothing medical on it he won't commit) still BT this morning so i'll be keeping the fingers crossed that we all get positvie results this week. I agree thou the 2 weeks or so after OV and AF are the worst cos u always want to test early, and if it come out neg, you always think oh i should have waited or something, well at least I always do. Any how. Baby dusts flying to you all.

hester · 29/10/2004 22:08

Just popping in to say goodnight to all (and good morning to Tania, when she gets this).
Look forward to your CAT, Pamina.
Hi Jeddah! Thinking how great it would be if we could get pg at same time, and sort out these young whippersnappers on the 'expecting' threads

velcrobott · 29/10/2004 22:43

HELP!!! SUPERCONFUSED!!!!
For some reason.... I decided to test for ovulation... I tested last Sat and was positive... so BDed all WE... just tested again and it's positive again... is this possible?

Now I do have 1 worry, I can't find the instructions of my kit so not 100% sure I read the strip right. Both lines are similar and very obvious.
It's the ACON FLH-111
Anyone can confirm I ahve read the test right ?
Can I ovulate twice in a week????
Not had AF in 62 days.... and had a BFN 4 days ago.

velcrobott · 29/10/2004 22:47

Jeddah??????

jeddah · 29/10/2004 22:53

hi velcrobott!....jeddah here (alias......miriam friggin stoppard!)

I guess you can onvulate more than once in a month.....I have heard women can do this. If the lines in the test strip were both dark and similar....then you probably have.

*are the strips in date
*have they been stored correctly
*have you tested same time of day
*I have noticed that alcohol does affect the result.....are you pissed!

does this help?
