TTC no. 119 - fingers crossed for more BFPs!

[HunkerMunker]

Thought I'd start another thread as the last one was SO successful but is starting to take a while to load and I keep losing my place in it!

A quick update on my stats - on CD39 of third cycle since getting AF back after DS was born in April 2004 (10.5 months old).

Have endometriosis and PCOS so have decided to let nature take its course over the next few months and if I fall pg naturally, then so be it. If I don't, then we'll try clomid again (worked first time for us with DS).

Am still breastfeeding, so have erratic cycles - they were always long (so far have had AF visit twice and had 50 and 42-day cycles).

No idea when I ov - may try OPK's next month if no success this month (and don't think I am pg atm).

Think that's it!

Lots and lots of babydust to all the ttcers and lots and lots of babyglue to those who've just had BFPs (and more congrats!). xxx

Still no AF now 5 days on! Still neg testing tho' have tried predictor and boots own
So frustrated!!!

How bloody frustrating Piffle. At least if i dont test then i still have a little ray of hope if you see what i mean. I have been in your posotion so many times and im determined not to go there this month. How do you feel in yourself?

Hey and howdy everyone!!

Cp3- I'm going to hold out to see if Af comes. I'm tempted to try and test but it'll only be really depressing when it's BPN so I'm holding onto my dream for at least another day if not longer. If I haven't come on by Sunday then I'll consider testing!

hi girls

got a stupid question for yous.well , i think its a stupid question but i dont know the answer.
after sex, and that is when we dont ov,what happens to the sperms.well they dont need to meet any egg and conceive, but what happens to them?where do they go? i probably need some 'back to school sexual education'.hehe.anyone knows the answer?
CD10 and feeling preov cramps.bedded every night so far.expecting to ov around fri-mon

Diege - thanks for the good luck! I need it. I too am sick of my mind and it's tricks. Any little thing and I think "Ooh maybe just maybe" even had Dh checking my boobs last night to see if they were any different/bigger/whatever! He had fun, I got pissed off!!!

Cp3 - Let me know what you do about testing. I haven't had any cramps or anything which I usually get but no other signs of pg or Af for that matter. Oh I HATE waiting and the probablility is that I'll come on and suffer for days.

Piffle - Poor you. It's so frustrating isn't it? You can't be happy or upset or anything it's just so bloody frustrating. I feel for you hon.

Good question Fresco. I asked the same thing to my friend who told me that they die and get disposed of in the vaginal discharge (Uh I hate that expression!It sounds so disgusting and unlady-like!) I don't know if this is true or not. Maybe they get absorbed? Or maybe they just set up home and live a pleasant life in a warm climate!! Hahahaha!! Sorry that's gross.

BTW anyone who is dying to know how my exciting chinese movie was last night will be pleased to hear it was actually fabulous!! It was very girl power-y, the woman was a better fighter than the men and kicked their ass repeatedly. She ended up defeating the big tribe of horrible, male bandits leaving one of them castrated as well. I tell you it was fun for all the family!! Can I just add that I have no wish to harm men or their genitalia in any way, the men in the movie were horrible and kidnapped a woman against her will and were going to rape her. Just thought I'd point that out!!

Fresco, they just die because of the inhospitable nature of the vaginal Ph balance when it's not ov time. Not sure where they go when they die though (dis-charge I guess Ha ha ).
Going home to await my AF. Bad cramps for a week now, but at least I can start my persona then.
LOL pop re: boobs - did you have to 'follow through'?? (iykwim!!)

Diege - No! Poor Dh wanted to but I just looked at him like he'd suggested we fry a cat and said I was tired and hormonal and he should be more understanding!! Not that he was pushing it or anything, he simply asked but right now anything he syas or does is enough to get me snarly. Poor boy, he's such a sweetie too!!

Im sat here at the comp with throbbing boobs, i keep getting twinges. Prob from me poking them all the time. God i hate this time of ttcing. I will def test tomorrow, i need peace of mind.

Am feeling down and going back on the Pill next Sunday. Just tired of the disappointment and we really need to clear out our overdraft before I can afford accupuncture. Just waiting for AF to show up tomorrow, she's always spot on 28 days - bitch. She made my day absolute s* today already w/the heartburn, intestine cramps, lower back aches, nausea, mood swings and screamingly sore boobs. My PMS is now 2 weeks/month and as it's all for n/thing I'm getting fed up w/ this. I am starting a course at uni this Autumn and have a lot of my plate as it is, I don't need this.

This is really starting to get to me . . . again. I am crying too much and I need to focus on what we do have; not what we don't.

Good luck to all you TTCers and hope you get your BFPs soon!

Hi, I'm new to mumsnet. I have a 2 1/2 year old son & have had 2 miscarriages since TTC another. The first I had a scan at 10 weeks and the baby had not developed, the second I had a scan at 6 weeks where we saw an heartbeat but I had another scan at 9 weeks & the baby had died. i thought I would join the thread for some moral support & tips.

Hi boogiebear and welcome to this world. Hope we wont drive you mad too fast.ANd i hope you get a nice BFP very soon.sorry to hear about the m/c, i remember how destructing that can be.good luck for some more ttc hen.xx

One more cycle to go till he's home! YAY!!! I can't wait to get my end away and stop eatiung all this choc - did u know it's a substiute for sex? - that's my excuse and i'm sticking to it!

still no af, not going to test for a few more days
feel fine, one thing GP said yesterday was that I may not ovulate on the surgery ovary for a few months due to trauma, if I do no ovulate then periods will be irregular...
No help though, am also considering how unlikely it would be to conceive 3 mths after ectopic that preg which took us 16 mths to create!
Am fine, bloody tired but dd is up sprouting very sore second molars so hard not be knackered really!
Time will tell she says not really being as patient as she sounds
did you test CP?

Hi everyone

D-day for me as my partner is expecting his sperm test results today. The doctors said they should get them today from the hospital and would chase them up and ring him on his mobile. He will then ring me. Feeling really anxious and dont know what to do with myself. Fearing the worst but having to go on. Been trying for a year, although I am 41 and he is 60 and he had a reversal of vasectomy about 8 years ago but didnt go on to have any more children with his second wife at the time as they split up shortly afterwards. His sperm count then was 22 million, but still fearing the worst after such a long time. Dont know what I am going to do if it is bad.

Bev

Good luck bev!!! Piffle im sat here with major belly ache as holding on to my wee . Just off out now to get a test. Catch you all later. It will be a bfn i know. Sorry im negative but its hard to stay posotive all the time.
