Hmm. Not sure. Could be just some heavier spotting? Or maybe the early bit of AF?

Hulababy · 29/12/2004 09:50

Oh Tania - not heard the story of the baby. How terrible. I am finding allt hese stories so heart breaking. Headline I read was of a 6m month old baby being dragged out of the arms of her daddy - only to be found washed up, dead, hours later. I can't imagine the horror. I just shudder.

Tania2 · 29/12/2004 09:51

its driving me crazy and my gyno is not back in the office till after the new year.
Tried to make my appointment with the councellor for ivf today but noone rang me back. if af starts now i will have to wait another month till i can start ivf.

Tania2 · 29/12/2004 09:53

Oh hula that sounds like a horrific ordeal for the daddy how do you ever get over something like that. too many what if's you would just do your head in.

Hulababy · 29/12/2004 09:58

about the gyne Tania. Hope it sorts itself out so you can get started.

Tania2 · 29/12/2004 10:17

My mistake just recounted and iam on cd19 but it is still too early for af or my usual spotting and for that matter i havent spotted for the past 2 months.

Fastasleep · 29/12/2004 11:01

Hey girls! Sounds like a lot of you had a great christmas!! Congrats to all the pregnant people! Especially Colins, cos I know you a little bit better ... my little monster just clicked something and all the little bars with the different windows and the site address have disappeared, argh I'm no good when that happens lol...

For my boring info I think I had the big O on the 23rd, was sick this morning lol but I'm reading too much into it again... I'm trying not to watch the news about the tsunami, it's awful hope everyone had a good Christmas!

BeckiF · 29/12/2004 18:10

Hi Jeddah - I'm back, but fragile ... I had a nice quiet Xmas with some lovely gifts.

Currently cd58 and apparently 6dpo, had a temp dip yesterday, probably more to follow. Those that have seen my chart say that it looks like more erratic temps but one person said that it looked like an implant dip.

Hulababy · 29/12/2004 18:41

Hi; I'm not around quite so much at moment as been so busy - doing the visiting rounds of family/friends, etc. Off down to London for New Year tomorrow evening. Anyone up to much for New Year?

AF is no where near as bad as it had been, which is a blessing I guess. On to month 5...

marinda · 29/12/2004 19:49

Hi everyone

Becki so lovely to have you back - missed you loads ! Would you mind me asking why your cycles are so long??

AF began for me on 27th - so CD3. Very down as felt SO pg this month and felt convinced has bd at right time - so on to another month (sad).

Hester, Jeddah please give me support - I feel like cracking up over this !!! I know, I know be pateient etc....

Congratulations to Morgan, Colinsmummy, and muppetmentality Lovely Christmas pressies!

Tania - good luck with IVF etc... What symptoms did you have before you knew about your tubes ??? I wonder if I have this too!

Sorry Hula and cockenzie about AF.
Jinlebells counting days for you before 13th Jan !! You must be getting impatient !!

Hope everyone enjoyed Christmas !

BeckiF · 29/12/2004 19:53

Hi Marinda - I have PCOS, am overweight blah, blah, blah .... hence the long cycles. Am on 3000mg of Metfromin a day and could of started IVF October 03 but took the choice to lose weight ... wish I hadn't bothered cos I'm about the same weight as I was a year ago. Anyway, if af doesn't turn up in the next few weeks I'm going to go anyway.

marinda · 29/12/2004 20:22

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is PCOS ?
Sound like good idea for you to start IVF - Keep thinking about this myself !!!
Did you see the thread we started for you ?? It's so odd with this, when someone doesn,t post for a while, it's like really missing a friend - Oh the joys of MN !

marinda · 29/12/2004 20:32

Becki -researched it - so no need to explain. How long have you been TTC ?

BeckiF · 29/12/2004 20:44

No I hadn't seen the chat thread, and I've just looked. Very touched that you were thinking of me. I've not been myself though so I haven't been on. I've been ttc #1 for 4 years with dp. I did try clomid with my ex husband but that was in 1997, so you can see, I've been aboard the ttc train for far, far too long.

Tania2 · 29/12/2004 21:14

Good morning girls.
Well no bleeding this morning very strange dont know what to make of it????
Jeddah happy bding hope this is your month.
Marinda i had no symptoms at all gyno knew there was something wrong when looking at my history at 18 found out i have endo then it took about 7 years to conceive ds (not really ttc but he considers no contraception we should have been pg long b4) had the lap done on the 15th of Dec and thats when i found out blocked tubes. It was caused from chlamyda didnt even know i had it for all these years. been to hell and back this month just hope that iam strong enough to cope with ivf.
Becki so sorry you have had a rough time but please remember we are here for you if you need to rant.

Tania2 · 29/12/2004 21:27

Where is everyone....well i think i know where jed is

jeddah · 29/12/2004 21:51

marinda no cracking up on this thread allowd!!!!! (especially us old dolls!!!!)

Tan.......you guessed right!!!!!!

Beckif......you sound so pissed off with yourself....why not start the new year as you mean to go on!!!! you will feel fantastic loosing weight....may just recharge your batteries for the ttc new year!??

marinda · 29/12/2004 22:58

Jeddah - thanks for the support from one fellow old doll to another 9meant in nicest possible way of course!) will endeavour not to crack !

How did you get in touch with your gynae quack ???
I just went to Dr's two weeks ago and asked to be referred stating that I had not got any time to lose at my age !!!!! How long did it take before you heard etc...??
