Trying for a 2016 baby

Morning Ladies

Hope all is good!

@Chanti keep strong! We are here for you always xx I had a bright red streak of blood on CD24 no idea what that was

@ Anzel try capturing the symptoms and see what happens next month.

On my side CD29 AF is due today. Had no pre show for AF as usual. I'm just waiting it out will test on Sat if AF doesnt arrive

@Anzel - Keep track of what you are experiencing this month and see if it repeats next cycle

Good morning, girls

Thanks for the advice and input on the IUI vs IVF yesterday. I might just reconsider!

I am still having weird cramping and weird CM - Am on CD 5 today.

Hey ladies,

How is everyone doing?

@Liza - Any sign of AF or a BFP yet?

@Nicci - Sorry she arrived I would suggest starting OPK's around CD11/12

@Anzel - Are you feeling normal yet? You said you had funny CM?


AFM, CD25,11DPO, noticed a slight tiny pink tinge in CM.... I hope its not the witch. I do feel like she is going to arrive soon though, feeling crampy and heavy down there. My temp has gone up 0.1 for two days in a row, if it is going to drop it will be in the next two days so praying that it doesn't and that it infact ends up triphasic... wishful thinking? Who knows! Just feeling down today.. I told hubby that if we dont get our BFP this month then I won't be temping and using OPK's next month, I just need a rest.

Quite amazing that you are on baby no3! We serve an amazing God of miracles!

Since Lee's birth in March 2013, I've said "thank you" prayers every SINGLE night when I put her (and then 18 months later her brother) to bed. DH smiles about that now and says he thinks God knows how grateful we are, but I will thank Him for an eternity.
And....I have never forgot that sinking and depressing feeling I experienced during those 3 years and a bit when AF arrived and the cycle was a bust. I have grown to have respect for every woman's journey and to this day I have not asked a woman those dreading words: " So...when are you going to have a baby".

Our journeys change us forever.
There is a great book that I would love for you to read. I will try to find the title and send it to you. It helped me a great deal (I read it before I conceived Lee).

Chanti
THank you

Ai, Zarah. I do not know what to say. Do you have contact with Klippie, Strikkie, SH or Bea? When I started browsing on moomie again sometime last week - I tried to find my old "tjommies" - but could not find any. I'm so sad that you (and them) still do not have your BFP's. And - it is now not as if you have not tried. Four IVFs is a huge financial and emotional investment. How are you doing emotionally? (Ever considered donor eggs or surrogacy?)
I good friend of mine will use donor eggs during her next IVF. She is not stimming at all anymore and if she does, she rarely produces more than 2 follies and sometimes the eggies do not survive past fertilisation.
