Hi MTC, glad to see you're still around. I'm also glad your cycle was spot on normal, so one less stress in your already stressful situation. Really hoping for positive good things for you in your immediate future xx

Hello Girls,

Hope you all well... Seems as though you ladies are busy :P

Goodluck to all testing or in the 2WW...

Welcome to the new ladies, hope your stay is short and sweet and your babies are on the way soon ;)

So I had a perfect 28 day cycle... So not pregnant, alittle relief in the situation I am sitting in... Been rough for me and im struggling, smiling through the tears... Should be moving out this weekend and im so not looking forward to that.. Still not sure what's happening on the job side, im hoping they renew my contract, problem is the company has been bough over, so a lot of changes are happening...

Keep well girls, will pop in again soon xxxx

Hello Ladies, hoping everyone has a great day :)

@JB01 - do you use OPK's? And if you do, when do you start testing? I tested again this just now and again got a negative one. Might have missed the window, but might still be coming. Also have more EWCM today, have had it a little bit since CD9 (currently on CD13).

I know they say if you stress about it, it will just not happen, but how do people not think about it? My sister's doc told her you know when someone tells you NOT to think about a blue VW that is the ONLY thing you can think about, that is what its like when TTC, and I totally agree! Trying to NOT think about it is really almost more stressful than thinking about it!

@ Chanti, I like the attitude we are the perfect baby making machines!! :cheer: that will keep us nice and positive this cycle.

@ Ninies, you will probably be testing soon and will be holding thumbs. Yip Fertomid is a pain in the butt with regard to the false preggy symptoms

@ P4M1, you are about 8DPO? Ooh close to testing time, GL

@ Nix, I also cringed at the though of seeing a male Gyna and vowed I never would. I use my lady GP for the pap smears etc but had to see a Gyna while ttc. I am in Durbanville and could not find a lady Gyna anywhere in my area. I see a lovely male Gyna at Louis Leipoldt and he sets one at ease. It is really not as bad as I imagined :P

@ Jannet, so terribly sorry to hear your loss, big hugs :heart: I also had to Google rainbow baby.

@ Cariem, I am one day behind you at CD12 and according to my chart I ovulated on CD16 last month but the bloodwork said otherwise but that is another story. GL with gearing up towards the big O

AFM, CD12 painful and uncomfortable ovulation cramps that I have never felt before. So hoping that the Fertomid is working and making me grow follicles and mature eggies this time :)

* TTC baby #1 for 1.5 years
(tried naturally for 1 year - anovulatory cycles)
(medicated Fertomid cycles for 5 months)
BFP - 1 Sept 2015 - un medicated cycle
TTC baby #2 - October 2017
BFP - 3 January 2018

TTC baby #3 in 2021

Thanks so much, ladies!! I really appreciate your support. Apparently, you are your most fertile after a dnc, but I have "plumbing" issues that'll make it veeeeeery difficult to conceive naturally-not impossible, just difficult. Man, wouldn't that be beautiful!
I have to admit, I had to look up what a rainbow baby was :) I love the term! Yes, I hope we do hold our little rainbow babies soon!!
I'm currently on CD 36. Hopefully, we'll have some sort of resolution soon!!
Have a great eve, girls! Now to try figure out what is for dinner :tmi:

I agree those clear blue digital ones are very expensive :pinch: just like their hpt. I dont use opk's anymore because I usually get a false read (long story) but anyways clicks has some of their own Opk's that are very affordable. Everything ttc is expensive these days, but I would give anything for a baby. ANYTHING!! (crazy lady voice ) :laugh:
