TRYING FOR 2015 BABY

@ Babydream, I start the Fetomid +- the 10 April and its seems like years away. I was also so excited and eager to see the Gynae and I had a external scan to check the lining, follicles etc. Exciting times

@ Morgan, I agree 100% with Lillyr, stay strong, breath and wait till Friday/Saturday, good luck and loads of baby dust to you

@ P4M1, are you also going to test on the weekend with Morgan? You must be itching to test, lol. Hoping for your BFP

@ Anzel, I have 2 months of 50mg subscription and then 2 months of 100mg. But after the second month I need to go for a Progesterone test to see if I am ovulating, if all is good then he will keep me on the 50mg. He said that one can only use the oculation inducing pills for 4 months so hopefully we will have our BFP soon. is this your first cycle on Fertomid? I have to take my first pill on +- 10 March CD4 - CD8 and then have to bd from CD12 till CD18

My hubby's Urologist recommended Sperm-I-Prove pills to help with sperm shape and production etc I bought them yesterday for R118 for 60 pills (2 months) from Clicks. I even bought my Fertomid from Clicks as well for R119 for 10 pills, so glad that I didn't have to shop around looking for them

Thanks guys.

I must confess, my spaz-attack has passed and I feel much better. I reflected on everything that happened regarding this month's cycle.

Positive result 1. We've been praying, hoping, praying, wanting, PRAYING to have twins for a LONG, LONG time now - this cycle was the first one we've had with 2 viable, beautiful eggs. Dr even immediately said 'Oooo, that's twins!' when she saw them.

Positive result 2. Dr said that hubby's swimmers look good, has a good count, good movement everything good which (and I quote) 'Makes chances for success better.'

Positive result 3. IUI procedure went well. No spotting, discharge afterwards.

Positive result 4. This cycle was the first time I was put on progesterone tablets to 'make the eggs feel more at home and welcome in the womb.'

So, all in all. I basically just had a right proper spaz-attack earlier and freaked out because of pulling, tightness in the lower abdomen which yes, is like AF getting ready but can also indicate that the womb is expanding to accommodate the twins. Also, the cramps / pulling are gone now. Only thing that I really can't explain is the fact that I have no cm. Also, the progesterone tablets also make you have early pregnancy symptoms (heavy bbies, nausea, cravings, moodiness). Honestly, I don't know how I must feel. Happy or sad, worried or carefree.

Regardless, I am testing Friday morning (16 dpiui) like Dr said I should. Until then, I am going to remain calm and POSITIVE. I can't believe that all of those positives listed above would have happened if it wasn't meant to be. I cannot and will not believe that God could be so cruel.


OOOO P4M1 - I also have those symptoms except the CM. Let us really, really hope that it means BFPs!!

Thanks for always being there for me, ladies. You guys are amazing!!

Love and babydust to all!!

Morning Lovely Ladies

Hope everyone is doing good?

@Morgan55
Hang in there girl and try to relax
I know it's easy for me to say but I understand what you are going through
You are going to drive yourself mad at the rate you are going, If you feel you want to test then take a hpt if it's BFN you will know it was too early and then take another when you where told to test.
I know this will be your month girl, keep strong!!
And remember we are always here to listen

@lillyr
How are you doing today?
What CD & DPO you on?

AFM:
CD23 10DPO
I wasn't going to symptom spot but I've got a few
Creamy CM, Mild dull pressure and cramps, lower back ache and I sometimes feel dizzy with some twinges/pulling in lower abdomen
BB's was sensitive yesterday but not today
All these symptoms might all just be AF related who knows

Hope everyone has a smashing day!
To all the ladies getting ready for O, sending lots of fertile dust your way and to all the ladies waiting to test sending lots of baby dust your way!
Hope we all get our BFP

I was told to test after 16 days i.e. Friday will be 16 days. Was planning on testing on Saturday, just to be safe, but I don't know if I can last that long. Also, I have an 'early prediction hpt) at home that I was thinking of using but won't the progesterone tablets that I'm drinking make a difference?

@MOrgan.. dont even feel bad about it. We are here for you. No need to apologise hun, we are going to get through this together. I dont have much time to chat, but i just wanted to remind you that we are here for you, and no need to feel bad. From were i am sitting its 5 against 2. and that gives me hope. Hang in there hun, I think its not yet time to give up, i know its stressful, but lets take it one day at a time. Quick question, when are you allowed to test? Please talk to us whenever you need to and never worry that its only about you, we all make it all about us to an extend, that's why we are here for each other

**hugs**

Good morning lovelies!!

Ladies, I am FREAKING OUT! Seriously! I feel so extremely emotional, I don't know what to do or think or feel.

I'm so confused at the moment. I don't know if it's the progesterone tablets that are making me feel this way or is it because I'm pregnant.

I gave in to temptation and went to ask Dr Google what's what and I'm so bloody sorry I did. I am now going to list the BFP list of symptoms and then the BFN list of symptoms. Please bear with me.

BFP symptoms

1. My bbies feel heavy and I swear they are bigger. This has never happened to me before.

2. Feeling slightly nauseous but not all the time.

3. Craving things to munch and then afterwards feeling nauseous.

4. Tired

5. Peeing more frequently.


BFN symptoms

1. No cm

2. Tightness, pulling in lower abdomen, like AF getting ready to arrive.


Today is exactly 14 days since IUI. Ovulation predicted at 04:00 on 4 March (hsg trigger shot given on Monday 2 March), IUI procedure done at 11:30 on 4 March.

Ladies, I am really scared that it's another BFN. I honestly don't know if I could handle it. Really. I think this will break me.

So sorry to only be focussing on me, me, me.

xx

Hello Ladies,

Thank you all for your input. I have taken a different test and waited another day and it's a positive. So we are very happy!

I just want to let you all know that I'm wishing you all the best of luck. I know it's really difficult hearing all these stories of friends and people around you with child while you are trying so hard and it's just not going your way. I have a friend who has been trying for just under a year, and I'm dreading even mentioning that I'm pregnant because I can't imagine how I would feel if I was in her shoes.

I know they say you really shouldn't think about it but how do you not think about something you so badly want. I do believe that things happen for a reason and when the time is right. Last year I lost my dad had I been pregnant when I wanted to be I would have lost baby with all the stress I just know it.

keep positive or at least try and know that I'm spreading lots of baby dust over all of you!
