[C1NDY]

Hi All,

New thread, a new beginning...

I've replied on your other thread - but I'm so pleased for you I'm going to do it again here.

Well done yellow. You are an outstanding example of keeping on keeping on. Fabulous news.

Yellow what wonderful news... I have everything crossed for you :0)

Hi, all its a bit hectic here and I never get the time to post as much as I did at work! So again a quick post but hopefully when I am in some type of system I will read all your posts and answer them as I use to!

Love you all
Cindy

Thank you! Wow.

Can I stick around here please? I believe the title - all here until everyone has a baby.

How you feeling daisy?

Hi kitty and Cindy. How is Suri?

I'd love you to stick around yellow.

And many congratulations to C!NDY and Suri.

I've started again. A horrific AF arrived on Friday and on Saturday I honestly thought about visiting A&E because it was so heavy. Probably made worse because we were at a wedding reception and I had to go up to our room every half hour to sort myself out.

I don't know what's going on to be honest. I've only just thrown away the hpt and it did have a clear but faint line on it. I am very, very glad I am seeing another specialist later this month.

I've written off this month though - and have decided not to take Clomid either. It is hard on my system and I think that I'd like to see the new man with a clean slate.

oh no daisy that sounds horrid. def go to doctor because that's not right - if a cp then need to find out why that's happening and if a period then need to find out why so bad plus you need better care re clomid. much love xx

Hi all

Please stay yellow what is your due date?

So sorry daisydot

Can i get some advice? I had a +OPK on CD17. We BD on CD16 and CD18. I am now CD26 and have had sensitive teeth for a week. Yest boobs were tender. I suffer with IBS and that's reversed too. It's causing me pain! ...could it be?

well from my workings out it would be mid Dec but guess I will have to ask doc. Am going anyway tonight by chance because of another thing so will have some good news for them though it is locum - my normal and lovely encouraging doc is away and I know she'd be so pleased.

Sounds really positive Kitty - fingers' crossed for you. Never heard of the teeth one. My symptoms this month were different to previous months but in my bfn months the symptoms were still very real so either they were CPs or my brain is very clever at fooling me.

A good doc is worth their weight in gold. I heart mine. I have moved but dont want to change him. I know i will have to though . Good luck yellowcrosses fingers for self

I kept the one near my old house (about 5 miles away but we have no car) - will have to change now though for ease of access.

Wow! I've missed loads of news!

Yellow Hurray for your BFP!!! Really Really pleased for you. Especially as you were on this thread when i joined back in 2008 and am so so happy you have your BFP!

C1ndy Congratulations on the birth of Suri - beautiful name and so so happy for you.

kitty fingers crossed for you!

daisy poor you - that sounds bad - I hope your new man helps you figure out what is going on xx

also a wave for pinky - nice to see you again too!

I am 25 weeks today and am fine - although look a bit like a hippo!

thanks so much iggy - I can hardly believe how long I have been here, and am so chiuffed we kept thread going. Such a massive support.

Wow - 25 weeks. xxx

Wondering how you are daisy and everyone else? x

More to the point yellow, how are you? How are you feeling now you are up the pole? Is it like you imagined it would be?

I'm veering between despair and normality at the moment. I made my poor DH sit down last night and seriously discuss whether or not we should just give up on babies. I am getting nervous about seeing the consultant - I expect he will just tell me I am too fat and have no hope at all.

It's also really, really hard keeping on top of it when I see my family at the moment. My DSiL is beginning to show and naturally, much of the discussion is about their baby. I honestly am thrilled for them - and excited too, but it is so hard not to think about myself and my barren-ness at the same time.

My DM dug out our old baby clothes when I was last there with my DSiL and that was hard too. Topped off by my DM who took me aside and said how much she wishes it was me that was pg.

A hard day tbh.

That all sounds so negative. Sorry. I'm not as miserable as that sounds. Mostly, I'm quite happy.

How's everyone else doing?

Hi Daisy ,

Truth is I don;t feel many symptoms at all. Have had a little nausea but not every day. Metallic taste but gone now. Boobs - some pangs but not much. Feel totally normally to be honest. Anxiety over ttc just replaced by anxiety over whether this will work out. Which makes me sound ungrateful and I'm truly not - delighted, but scared of getting too excited in case not a sticky one.

Sorry you are having such a tough time. Every one in nhs told me I am too fat. Don't read this as anti nhs - I'm not. At private clinic everyone said better to lose weight but they would try treatment anyway (cynical amongst you will say that's because they want to make more money). Please don't give up. But do insist on getting everything properly investigated. Can you afford private investigations? Our initial appt was £200 and then more money for scans etc but really I bet you;d get more answers re your cyst etc.

xx

Massive congratulations to you yellow!!

I dont really come on here much anymore as I am too busy with my... little boy... who was born on 21/2/10!!!

So thrilled that things are looking up for you! Its funny cause I conceived on the very brink of intervention too. Perhaps knowing that people were taking me seriously and things were going to happen relaxed me and then I fell pregnant!

Anyway good luck I wish you all the best and to everyone else too. Dont give up hope, I never thought it would happen for me and now I have a beautiful chubby smiling baby monster

Not my month ladies. Wedding less than 6 weeks away now.

congrats iggy

how you doing daisy?

Sorry not your month kitty. Wedding very exciting though.

I actually had some spotting today and yesterday and symptoms stopped so went to early pregnancy unit today and they saw a teeny tiny heartbeat - wow! Got to have it checked again in two weeks to cheak it's growing etc but very exciting and helping my anxiety a little bit.

Hi All!!

Goush, am I tired and drained. Both DD in bed and I am just trying to catch up with email etc...

Pinkyblue congratulations on having a DD... what did you name her?

Yellow I have everything crossed for you. Its a good sign to get a heartbeat, I had an early scan done it makes everything seem so real. Just relax and everything will be fine.

Kitty Sorry AF showed up but you have other things on right now so get your wedding out of the way and I am sure you will get that bfp soon! Have a wonderful day!! enjoy it as it will go too fast!

Daisy YOur day will come soon... just stick with it. I never thought it would happen to me... by the way I am fat and am over 40 so not a good candidate to get pg but it happened to me... so please stick with it sweetheart it will happen to you!!

Hello,

Had some more bleeding but another scan showed heartbeat and good measurements and am 8 weeks tomorrow.

Been thinking of you guys. How you doing Daisy?

x

Yellow - I'm glad you're still OK - it must be so, so worrying for you at the moment. You're two thirds of the way to 12 weeks. Well done.

C1NDY - Thanks for the boost - it's good to get them! It sounds as though you're getting through the hardest days pretty well. I bet life was much more sedate when you were still at work.

Kitty - Enjoy your wedding day - it'll be such an exciting time.

Iggy - Hope you're hanging on in there. Are you getting horribly uncomfortable?

I've officially given up TTC. The new doctor was actually very positive but said that pretty much everything is caused by my weight. He has asked me to have another lot of tests, and has written to my GP to get them organised. I have lost quite a bit since October last year, and am keeping going, but I have never, ever been thin. Even with masses and masses of exercise and a very strict diet, I still didn't get what I'd call thin. It seems so very unlikely that I'll lose enough weight to please the doctors. I have gone down from a size 22/24 to a size 18/20 and it still isn't enough. He has asked me to come off the Clomid for the time being as he thinks we'll conceive naturally if I get thinner.

I honestly, honestly don't think we'll ever be successful so rather than keep on with the heartbreak, we've decided to give up.

We're going to get another puppy instead. Not quite the same, but a good distraction nevertheless.

I'll stay on the thread - I want to follow all your progress!

Yes have a wonderful wedding Kitty. Congratulations.

Daisy please don't give up. When weighed at fertility clinic couple of months ago I was 112kg. I don't know what that is in stones but it's a lot and I have bmi of 41. Obv it would be better if I were thinner but you know I come from a generation of fat women who all had babies. Can you afford private clinic? They tool me much more seriously and suggested I try to lose weight but they were still happy my chances were hugh enough anyway to give it ago. (still can't believe we didn't have to).

Hello - just wondered how you all are? I am ten weeks today and get a scan next week.
xx

Yellow - are you out there? You must have had your scan; was everything OK?

I'm on CD32 and 17DPO. No symptoms I've noticed, but I have been trying really hard to ignore anything even remotely interesting.

Hello ladies. Are you all still on here?
