Trying for a 2016 baby

Hi, ladies

How are you all doing?

Just quickly popping in with an update. I am on 9DP, CD24, and expecting AF to arrive by the weekend. I have no major symptoms this month, except for a bout of flu/cold. My voice comes and goes - Makes it very difficult at work where I have to give class to big classes of students (My smallest class is 36 students). I'm still hopeful for this cycle - If AF arrives, I'll ask my gynae to up my dose of Fertomid for next cycle.

@Nikita - Strongs with the clomid cycle - It sucks! I hate all the false pregnancy symptoms clomid gives us. But hey, if it works, it works.

@Chanti - Good luck with the saving, hun. I know it is very expensive, but your bundle of joy will be all worth it!

BTW, I'm having the weirdest dreams the last week or so. Apart from the fatigue, my dreams are extremely vivid and real. Makes me crazy!

Hi ladies

@Chanti - so sorry to hear that. I believe that the V will help you

@Anzel - positive thoughts how many DPO are you now?

AFM - I'm on CD3 and 2nd day of clomid, have to take it from CD2 - CD6,so let's see how it goes

Morning Ladies,

@Anzel - Thanks hun! Hit a major set back in our saving so having to start again from almost nothing but trusting that God will prepare the way for us. I'm hoping that was little bean getting stuck in there and all cosy.

@EmJ - I am so sorry about AF arriving, she can be a real pain in the backside. Deep breath and try again! Make each cycle an exciting one. The scans in particular are uncomfortable but it helps to be with a female gynae if possible and they are also more relaxed.

AFM, battling with a bit of cramps here and there this week but keeping on. My endometrioma is already back at 4.7cm even though i was operated on less than 3 months ago. It is scary dealing with this endo. I really hope this third month on Visanne will actually start doing something to the endo.

Hi ladies

Hope you are all doing well!

@Jooste! You are pregnant! Wow! So happy for you! I pray that your beta score will increase rapidly over the next few days. Holding thumbs. Let me know!

@Chanti - So glad your blood results came back clear. Now you can start the process to prepare for IVF. So excited for you! Don't worry too much about your egg reserve - You only need one good eggy for a baby! Also good luck with the saving! I'm sure you'll manage to get that extra few rands just in time!

@EmJ - So sorry that AF arrived - I know it sucks big time, especially if you had your hopes on a specific cyle! Be strong! At least you can now give it one more try! Thinking of you!

@Sugar - You are not out until the fat lady sings! HOLDING ALL MY FINGERS AND TOES!!

@Lush - Congrats with your twins! Praying that both babies are happy and healthy in your tummy!

AFM, I am CD 19, 4DPO and experienced sharp, sudden and short cramps in my uterus this afternoon. First on the right side and then a bit later on the right side. It stinged like hell! Very brief, like someone poked with a hot coal. Then it went away. Do you think it could be implantation? But so early? I'm definitively not ovulating - I did a OPK on Sunday after the strong positive on Saturday, and it was negative. I also don't have any EWCM, just this lotionany, creamy white CM. I also have sensitive nipples and I'm very tired. So looking forward to the 18the March - Then we are going to the beach for a whole week!

What are your plans for valentines day?? I'm looking forward to it!!

AF graced me with her presence, so I am out for cycle.

Chanti I hope you get the rest of the money saved quickly! Play lotto, you never know

Hi ladies

Chanti - not much going on my side, poas again today, still bfn. AF due tomorrow but my cycle is a day or 2 longer at times so probably more accurate to say within the next day or 3 AF should be showing her face.

Its officially affecting me this cycle so trying hard to deal with the emotions. This had been a rough month financially but we should probably make an appointment to see the FS for the new cycle and get things checked out. I think its more the uncertainty getting me down than the actual bfn. I just need to know whats going on but the idea of the tests or whatever the FS does also freaks me out a bit - out of my comfort zone.

I hope everyone else is doing good!

Hey ladies!

@Jooste - Congrats on the BFP!! Praying that those numbers sky rocket and that you have a sticky little bean.

@Anzel - How exciting to get that positive OPK!!! FX for this TWW!

@sugar - Im so sorry you had a little fall. I hope you are feeling a lot better and didnt seriously injure yourself.

@Lush - Put your trust in God! Praying for you and your app tomorrow.

@EmJ - Any news on your side?

@Nikita - Are you feeling any better yet?

AFM, my test results are back and all is well. My egg reserve is a little low but we can still do IVF!!! So greatful! Now to save save save and hopefully do my cycle in June. It looks like we will start with a frozen cycle.
