TTC No.17 - Heres hoping for a very fertile New Year!

[Sallie]

Thanks for suggesting that I start this thread - its a real honour. Won't be leaving it yet as am only on cd24, despite getting bfps from the 3 tests I have done today (paranoid or what?!).
Lots and lots of babydust to everyone. If this pg is successful, I will have conceived in the midst of an awful cold so that should give everyone some hope. Lots and lots of hugs.....

hester and jeddah - here's some from me!

My ovaries are singing!

Thanks, ladies

Got some what looks like EWCM, so please send some my way too.

thanks Hester and yes you are right all along.had my blood tests and will get results on thurs.so i shall see.in the meantime i think i will try to think about something else.hugs.xxx

Hester I know I have asked you this many times but>>>>
HOW MANY DPO ARE YOU????????

if you don't want to discuss it please tell me to shut up!

My advice to Cockenzie is pretty much the same as hester (old wise birds think a like!)bf has many different effects on different women, bllod tests will tell you if you have ov one month, but again cockenzie try and get hold of a persona this will give you more control and more confidence!

Further baby dust is very much welcomed........though I keep getting very faint 'funny feeling' and slight nausea......I really do think af is on her way....BITCH!

blood even!

Girls just to let you all know I have posted a thread on a meet up!

sparkly where neat leads are you?
I am about 30 miles north of leeds not far from harrogate....We could travel together?????? to the meet!

I swear I am not drunk! just rushing!

near leeds even!

jedds, I have no secrets from you - I am dpo9/10. Feelingn a bit crampy...

Haven't had a chance to add to the meet-up thread yet, but will...

cockenzie, so glad you've had the tests done. (I am getting very forgetful.) Have a good weekend, hun.

Hi Hester - got the post about when Fastasleep is your age, your child will have left home - same for me really - Bl*Y HELL ! I am feeling shite -at mo as think I have no OV'd - no LH on OPK - But did have EWCM (I think!) - so a non month for me as far as TTC is concerned ! CD12 for me - usually have OV'd by now !
What a pain TTC is - however I am soo inspired by Arabica !! I make a promise that if I am pg before anyone as old or older than me - I will organise a meet-up with them and buy drinks for them for at least half the night (provided they are on this thread!)

Just passing through and had to stop by to wish Jeddah lots of luck with her funny feelings and really hope thats its not a visit from you know who and possibly something else .... I feel for you with the long wait honey!

Snowstorm means that our flight tomorrow is cancelled. Guess I will be here for at least another month as I am sure that I am soon to ov.

Canadianmom - really sorry to hear that.

Just posted this on #16 but I guess it should have been #17 ..... Hi Everyone and Happy New Year. From the sounds of the last few posts, a BIG CONGRATES TO SALLY. Just wondering if I could join your thread. I haven't read thru all the posts but will sit with a coffee later on and read up on all of you. I've got to admit the "conception" topic was never on my list of topics that I'd browze as I didn't discover Mumsnet until I was preggers with 1#. Now, however, it's a different story. I gave birth to a chunky healthy little boy last Xmas after many years,drugs,dyes,laps,lazers,tears. I'm still breastfeeding but my period returned on his 8 month birthday. We've been TTC since then. My previously regular-as-clockwork 28 day cycle is now all over the place and I'm not 100% sure when I ovulate ... even if I ovulate. My mates (who have all got pregnant without trying!!!) tell me to relax and just bonk like crazy all month but my husband works nights 6 days a week so we really do have to plan things - not helping I'm sure. Well, that's about it! Cheers and hope to chat soon.

Just popping in quick -
v. sorry canadianmom - must be horribly frustrating. understatement.

cockenzie. you can't use persona till at least 3 months (start of 3rd normal cycle) after finishing breastfeeding, so at the moment there's no point in rushing out to get one

Cockenzie, sounds like we are in the same boat re the breastfeeding. Makes me sad to think of not breastfeeding, makes me sad to think of not conceiving because of it .... shit, everything is making me sad at the moment. On day 33 at the moment but have major AF symptoms and no sore boobies so preddy sure I'm not pregnant. Timing all out of whack. I have no access to this "persona" thing that everyone's talking about but do have eggy mucous on day 14, even though my periods are coming between 33-40 days. Any other ways of knowing that I'm ovulating without buying all the sticks/kits??

Hi girls just quickly popping in to see how everyone is.
Jed and Hester wishing you both the best of luck really hoping that i will be seeing a BFP from you both this month.
Welcome Kiwicath.
Well i think my sister m/c today i called her to see how she was going and she said that she is having heavy bleeding but no pains????? But her reaction was...."i have nothing to complain about when people have lost their loved ones in the tsumani" she is such a selfless person i would be feeling very sorry for my self atm and blaming the world. She is such a beautiful person and my rock love her to pieces. She cant find out what her body is doing for another week when they do more blood test and maybe another scan. I pray for her that her little bean sticks.
Just scrolled down the thread and realised i have been a snob and havent posted in 2 days i have been lurking though must have just thought that i had posted. I admit i have been chating on a ivf support chat room that has given me alot of info and support but nothing compared to what i have received from you guys this past year. Been so stressed out lately started taking VitB for stress and energy think it worked today as i managed to clean the house and tidy up all of ds's toys out the back . Had a nice night tonight thought had a girlfriend around to watch her wedding video that i was in in october that my dh had taped for her. pizza & pepsi max for dinner so much for the health kick hay!!!! she is ttc #1 but not putting much presure on herself though was more interested in reading all about my ivf procedure. She has had 2 terminations when she was younger and m/c last november so she is now wondering if god is telling her that she has blown her chances. She owns a childcare centre and is just so great with children i would have been lost without her when ds was a baby so is one of those people that are just meant to have kids i would say that when she has her babies i will have lots of kids at my house (payback).
Anyway hope you are all well i will try to post more. But please remember that i am still lurking and keeping an eye on you girl waiting for more BFP's.
Love to you all
Tania

BeckiF,

Other than the suspected EWCM I did have a drop in temps and now have had a rise. I wld suspect that if I have another high temp tomorrow Fertility Friend will say that I have ovulated (for the 3rd time in this cycle!). It seems to mean nothing to my cycle, and last time I did get 10dpo before my temps dropped again and FF removed the ovulation detection. I think its more of the curse of PCOS. Each day is a new day though, and what with the grief of the suspension from work and the fact that I am on medication for the breakdown, the chances of my conceiving are insignificantly low.

bonkerz - they arrived today. Thank you so much. Infact I reckon they are in time to use this month Just have to read instructions now. I am on CD10 today, and no sign of EWCM or anything yet. I think I may OV between CD13 and CD17, so need to find out when to sytart testing.

Becki are you OK, you mentioned a suspension from work ? If you don't want to talk, i'll understand !

Becki so sorry you have had such a awful time what happened with your work did that cause the breakdown or was it all this ttc stuff. We are all here for you dont feel alone we are your friends and care for you. but as marinda said if you dont want to talk about it we will understand we are just worried about you.
Take care angel and i hope the meds make you feel better soon.
LOL Tania

ernest and jeddah - u both give me the exact kind of advice.but i do think that persona will give me a more accurate idea of what going on with my body. anyway, had a chat with dp tonite and he said he was going to buy me one before my next cycle.gosh , he is soooo sweet, love him sooo much!!! he is desperate himself for another one hehe.well, CD15 and still no sign of ov.

kiwicath - how often do u bf?
