Trying for a 2017 Baby

@Jooste - We used to use Staminogro, but don't know why we stopped lol. I am using Calcium, Iron, Folic Acid and Evening Primrose oil (for now) tablets. Before I found out that I was pregnant last year I developed an allergy for red meat first it was mince, it was so bad that I actually struggled to breath so since then I cant eat any read meat, my legs start to itch it is horrible, so now I am using iron tablets.
My DH swimmers are perfect, even the G said that I have the perfect sperm donor
Hoping for positive results for you xxxx

GL for this cycle!! It could just be THE ONE!
(Are you using other supplements like Staminogro or the conception-range from Vitabiotics?) - I can recommend.

AFM
I'm doing okay. On CD25 and will test tomorrow morning with FMU with a digital.

Hi Ladies,

@Ayesha - I am so sorry that your gran is not giving you the love and support that you deserve, I feel sorry for her that she can say things like that and that she doesn't know the impact that it has on your life. Block her, don't let her get to you (easier said than done, but not impossible) don't even speak to her about any baby related topics. People will try and get you down. You are not useless, you are precious and wonderfully made. Things happen in life that we have no control over, love that kitten. After my MC I actually allowed my pugs to sleep in the bed with me, and my DH told me the other day that he is only allowing it because it makes me happy. Do what makes you happy Girl, don't let anyone get you down!!!

@Jooste - How are you?

@Pokkeltjie - I agree with Jooste, get busy

@Anzelle - How are you feeling? It is horrible to feel so depressed, I can only say now that I am feeling better. I think the longer you try the harder it gets. I pray that you fall pregnant quickly. I have been waiting 8 months, and told the gynea that I will not take clomid or any other pill, those things are horrible. I actually stopped speaking to people about babies and falling pregnant, they just always say the same thing. It is good to have a group of ladies that actually understand and who can relate.
When will you test again?

AFM - I am currently on CD7, have been taking evening primrose oil since CD4 it is said to help increase CM, so I will see if it works, and I will only take it up to Ovulation. They say it ripens the cervix or something. After O I will use an Omega 3 or something for my skin and scalp. Nothing else to report.

Ayesha
I so sorry! It was not nice of her to say something like that (as if you are even thinking of a kitten to replace your angel baby). What some people do not know is that by "mothering" or caring for something small that is vulnerable and completely depending on you - is very good for your soul. So......go ahead ...and do what you need to do to become whole again.
(HUGS)

Ha ha! Ai jai jai...yes the "perks" of when Clomid / Fertomid does work well! Honestly, I would BD if I were you. Chances are still pretty small that both of them will implant, but KNOW that you do have a greater possibility now of twins during this round. I had 4 mature follies during one of my TI-cycles (with injectables) in 2011 and we decided to take the chance and we BD'd. BFN!

Having 2 follicles however increases your chances of falling pg (with just one) - as most of our eggies are not viable anyway. Remember we only have a 25% success rate to fall pg during any given cycle - even if we do OV healthy eggs.

Morning Ladies....

Been a bit busy this side....thought I'd pop in quickly!

So I am now on CD13 - went to the gynae yesterday to check if our first cycle of fertomid is working.
And indeed it is - I should be ovulating today or tomorrow.
Normally I would be ecstatic, but there are 2 VERY BIG follicules on each side meaning that our chances for twins are very big
I am absolutely petrified to have twins Felt the same way first time on chlomid - but luckily we only had one egg
So since this morning I've been having quite hectic pains on both sides - so sure I am ovulating at the moment or about to ovulate

Gynae said that I could take 25mg (half of the 50mg tablet) my next cycle if I wanted to....no guarantee that there will only be one follicule - there could still be 2 follicules next cycle. So I have decided to rather skip this cycle, try next cycle again!
DH ofcourse not too happy as he doesn't mind if we conceive twins - feeling really bad cause we are now missing this chance and knowing that there could be a very big possibility that I could've been preggies in about 2 weeks time


Why can't baby making just be simple & easy! LOL

***Sending Baby dust to all of you***

Hi ladies

Hows every one today?

I am having a meltdown, my gran keeps on my case, today she told me that getting a kitten is not a replacement of a baby and i must stop being so useless....how is it that at times the people you depwnd on for strentgh are the ones that break u down the most, she refuses to understand how difficult it is to fall pregnant for me and how it hurts everyday....i have so much going on in my life, my brothers wife walked out on him taking my 2 nieces with andim heartbroken for him instead of trying to help him she rather makes me cry every day like im a failure for losing my baby n not having a baby yet...

Apologies for the rant but i have nowhere else to turn to

Liza:
I can just imagine....you seeing your stepsister's child and wondering all the milions of "what ifs"

Anzel
How is your pg family member handling the fact that you miscarried? Should be hard on her as well? How far along is she now?

AFM
I had a very vivid and strange dream last night. My DH and I was sitting alongside his brother and his wife. (We are getting along so well with his brother - but ai....his wife is not one of our favorite SIL's)
And I dreamt that they told us that they were 6 and half weeks pg. And...she leaned over to me and said - "I'm just so happy that at least you were also pg".


Then I woke up!
Horrible dream...
