TTC in APRIL

Vix and Binks - Congrats!!!
Wow April is ending with a bang, I hope you both have awesome pregnancies, enjoy every moment of them

Lucy - I am also on 5 DPO now according to my chart! Kind of odd as if I go to my usual 27/28 day cycle AF is due on 3/4th May. Oh well. I guess I O'd late or I'm having a long cycle which would be a first.

Hayley - I am still FX for you, I have a good feeling about it. Maybe you just have a low hormone count so the POAS tests aren't picking it up?

Chan - Your count was hectic, you sure it's not twins!?

AFM - trying to keep busy for this wait....not doing so well lol, AF is due Monday or Tuesday so hoping it doesn't come. I'm still bloated and feeling sickies something I don't normally get before AF, I only ever get bad cramps on CD1 so hopeing still it's a good sign. Also very tired but then having an over active 1 year old takes it out of you too!

Have a great evening all.
Baby dust to all that are left!

Hi Lucy,
My 1st gynae that did all the test retired last year. According to him we can still conceive on our own.
He removed my endometrioses and 2 months later I was preggies.
We did not use any protection for almost 4 years and again no luck. Found new gynae Oct 09 onse again discovered endometrioses
and 5 wks after it was removed we conceived but ended up in miscarriage.
To me it seems that endometrioses was our main problem. We only had sex on cd 10 and 12 and I guess we were lucky.
Did the smep last cycle but don't think the 3 days in a row will work for us.
Maryke - really hope this preseed will do the job this month.

WOW mia for 1 day and I miss so much bfp's!

CONGRAT'S VIX WOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So happy for you ypu where all worried for nothing! Have ablessed 9mths

Binks crongrats to you too, sjoe so kort opmekaar dis great ek moes ook die bullet bite to myne so klein was maar nou ja geluk girl!

Tracy, Chantell as you soon will find out pre-seed is amazing I bought two tubes from our dischem my first month using it I got my bfp. I used clomid 6 months very dry my 7 month clomid + preseed wonders! fxfxfxfxfx

Hayley - I saw the initial BFP pic and posted then to Vix

Vix - a huge congratulations to you hun!!!! fx on the lo being a girl. lol is it not amazing how you just 'know'


Saw baba, going again in two weeks got no pic so very sad about that, will insist at next scan...

got to go have huge drama with some neighbours....

Hey Chantelle
I have always had very heavy long periods (7/8 days) Where those super duper lilets don't even last 2 hours!
After my MC I still have had very heavy AF, although last AF (4 months after MC -was lighter) The main difference I have noticed is in the colour. Before MC, my AF was dark red almost black and now it is a bright cherry red.

I was hoping that since my AF was lighter this month there would be a nice thick comfy lining for LO !! I think that may be a bit wishful though.

I am not sure this is helping though as it seems to be opposite to you.
SMEP is not recommended if DH has morphology issues. The 3 days in a row will impact the sperm quality at the most crucial time.

What had your gynae recommended?

Take Care

Hi girls,
Vix - congrats girl may u have a healthy 9 months
Chan - your count is great that baby is stuck. Happy and healthy 9 months for u too
Haley - think u should test again 2morrow and let us know
Binks - congrats to u as well
I need some advice from your girls. I am trying preseed this month as well as the smep,
My dh has sperm morphology problems how would u suggest when to have sex (if u know what I mean)?
Lucy - if I may ask how is your af since the miscarriage, have it gone back to normal?
Mine is still very light and only for about 3 days (miscarriage Dec 09)
Have a great evening all

Vix, i had no idea you were doing the SMEP, well done my friend.. Well it's always a good thing you had a feeling you were preggies unlike me i know in my heart im not preggies.. Well to Vix, Chan, Binks and Maryke, i wish you girls a happy & healthy pregnancy... I've decided to try Clomid again this month, just waiting for AF to show her face so i can start on CD 4... Claire, where are you, you missed all the action with Vix's BFP... Need to start packing more boxes tonight... Where's Kimika?? She's missed all the action..
