TRYING FOR 2015 BABY

Thanks for sharing your thoughts & information.we are planning for ttc.

@Jay-Bee - well at least you now know whats going on hey. Good luck with the Fertomid, really hope it brings you a bfp! When are you starting with the fertomid?

@Anzel - Yip know that feeling. My hubby always just says relax, our time is not right yet and you cant fix everything. See the pic below, thats what I normally say to him. Haha...

@P4M1 - I'm good thanks and you girl? Nope AF still here, she'll probably leave tomorrow.

OT - How do you get on with your mother inlaw?

Haha feel like the second pic, cant wait for my appointment with my gynae next week. I think this is the first time ever I am looking forward to a gynae appointment.

@Jay-bee - I know the feeling of looking at the ultrasound and not seeing any follies. Very disheartening. I was placed on 100mg of Fertomid from the first round, so I am holding thumbs. I have a four month prescription.

No side effects that are out of the ordinary. I have normally symptoms such as sore boobies with stabbing pains, cramping, flatulence , headache, lower back ache, fatigue, hunger... Nothing out of the ordinary - This could be many things from possibly pregnancy, to side effects from the Fertomid. Nothing new to me, anyhow. I've heard that Fertomid gives false pregnancy symptoms, that's why I'm not jumping up and down yet. I'm on 3/4DPO today. Expecting my period next weekend. So I'll just have to wait and see if the first round was successful or not. I hate these guessing games and I hate to wait.

You know what, I am one of those girls who always find a way to make a success of what I'm busy with. Be it studies, work, finding extra income, arts, crafts, you name it. My hubby says I was born with the golden spoon in my mouth. Yet, with our TTC journey where I have absolutely no control whatsoever, and where I can't make it happen by myself, I feel so powerless and frustrated. I'm used to being able to fix things myself and if I really want something, I do everything to make it happen. If I want new makeup, I do extra work to get a little bit of extra money to pay for the makeup. Or whatever else it is that I want. Yet with this, it is not at all possible for me to make it happen by myself. It all depends on God's will and timing - Something I do not want to hear right now, to be honest.

Good luck, hun. I hate the tww, especially when I'm waiting to start with Fertomid after an anovulatory cycle. I started mine on Day 3 to Day 7, so had early ovulation round about CD 12/13. The later you take it, the later the ovulation, apparently. Not sure how true that is, though.

@DieSwartKat - Als normaal om so te voel. Vasbyt. Die ergste is amper verby!!

@ Lillyr and P4M1, you ladies are so close together and almost time to test all the best for this cycle

@ Morgan, i am thinking of you and its almost time to test so hang in there just a little bit longer

@ Anzel, what mg of Fertomid are you on and what side affects are you experiencing?

@ DieSwartKat, I know that sometimes the morning sickness and depression of pregnancy can get someone down and just know that if you need to rant and rave that we are all here to listen and do not be ashamed of your feelings as I am sure that they are perfectly normal. A little boy oh what a blessing

AFM, well the Gynae did a ultrasound this morning and my ovaries and lining are perfect but I have no mature follicles on CD13 and have had a anovulatory cycle which he suspects was for the last few cycles as well as my Progesterone levels where slightly low in January.

I have thought this to be the case so no shocker there but really feel down in the dumps!! He has prescribed Fertomid 50mg for my next two cycles and a Progesterone test after the first cycle. Any info regarding the best times to take the pill and the side affects will be appreciated.

Each of us has our own journey but so grateful that I have you ladies to talk too about it

Hi DieSwartKat, kom chat so bietjie in ons enkele ou forumpie... ons is maar min daar, dis Due Date Okt/Nov ek is nou 9 weke, en ek voel hoegenaamd glad nie swanger nie.... ek is nie siek nie niks nie... so baie sterkte girl. Hoop sommer dat dit gou verby gaan!

Hi everyone,

Sorry to but in on your thread, I know a few of you from other threads and basically popped in to see what everyone's progress is.

I just wanted to let you girls know that you've all just about made me cry now. I'm currently 13 weeks pregnant with our 2nd, been sick as anything for the last 6 weeks. It never goes away, I go to bed depressed, and I wake up depressed. Every day I feel sorry for myself, and once or twice I've even questioned our decision to have another baby (I also battled during my 1st pregnancy). Just last night I told my husband that I want to have a sterilisation after the baby is born, I can't take this a 3rd time.

I'm ashamed of myself now.

I remember the part that you are all going through so well, the wishing, the praying, the disappointment. How hurtful it is when it's not your month again, how crazy you make yourself and the people around you.

We found out last week that we're having a little boy. We have so much to be grateful and excited for. I know what I'm feeling is normal, everyone gets down when they feel sick, but I just had the most massive reality check from you girls.

Sending you all only the best of wishes, hope that there will be fewer of you on this thread when I come spy on you again.

Hi ladies

Have been reading all posts, just work has been too hectic.

Not much is happening on my side, bin having these hectic dizzy spells, cramps etc, so went to our nurse at work, as my sister said my iron levels cld be low. To cut a long story short, nurse refused to give me any meds as she said I cld be preggy. me & hubby got home and tested.....BFN . wats worse is I have no idea when AF is supposed to come, I cant remember when my last period was.... I kinda quit counting.....not cleva I know . So yaa my hopes were kinda lifted and poof after the test. Bt I have the best sister...she is preggy and somehow she just knows how make me laugh through it all. Bt otherwise not much has been happening.

@EnzelMama, the trick is to allow yourself to feel the emotions,but don't give up. I always look at the situations from all angles, you are blessed with the hubby you have, he is positive and strong for the both of you at this time, like the other ladies said, our time is coming.

Welcome to the new ladies xoxo

Hoping and having faith , March will be a start of BFP!!!! Enjoy your day ladies
