Welcome Pumpkin!

I have heard that couples that are TTC a boy need to BD very close to ovulation.

What have you been using to track your ovulation?

Maybe try using an app combined with OPK's?

Good Morning Ladies!!

How is everyone doing? Any updates yet :-)

@ Jay We are so excited! Timing worked out perfectly, we are so blessed to start so soon after our first appointment.

We went to see the Doctor again today, blood work came back looking great, he did not have any concerns so we did not see him for too long, after that he sent us to the nurse, she showed my partner how to mix the medicine and then she injected me on my stomach with the first dose. The Menopur injection did not hurt at all, it was such a relieve! Im starting on Femara tablets in the morning and Menopur injections until Friday then I have to take two other injections to super size all the small eggies.

Next appointment is Saturday the follicle scan and hopefully I will get my trigger shot Sunday!

Will keep you guys updated xxx I have loaded pics on Instagram as well on @theluduckies

@Mommiez: Thank you so much for the warm welcome :) I know, it's so weird - this time last year I would get so disappointed at the arrival of AF, now I just need her to arrive so that I know what is happening with my body! Back to the waiting game, I will tell you waiting to fall pregnant then being pregnant and waiting to see baba at each scan and then waiting for each trimester and then after all of that now waiting for AF or signs of normality... it has taught me A LOT of patience :side:

@Salemein: So so deeply sorry for your loss. It's just an indescribable pain that no-one really understands who hasn't experienced it themselves. It's like your whole world falls apart around you, and yes I do have so much love to give and can't give up hope, the emptiness is unbearable at times and I hope one day (soon) I can be a happy pregnant mommy again. Well I hope that we all can xxx I lost my father and my baby in the space of 17 months, something has to give! :unsure:

ME: 33

Hi Megs

My heart is bleeding for/with you. Our boy was also stillborn in November 2016 at 38weeks2days (he would have been 7 months last Sunday) also a natural birth.

Its the worst of the worst pain to lose a baby.

I'm so glad you are trying again and believe me a lot of people will comment that if you think you are really ready. What do they know. We don't want to replace our angels but there is a big empty hole in our lives and we have so much love that doesn't know where to go.

We also started trying again about 6 weeks after our loss, but at my 6 months post natal checkup my NEW and better doctor found that I have cysts on both my ovaries from me being to stressed about becoming pregnant (ironic) hah she put me on two months birth control so still one more cycle to go and then hopefully...

I hope that your rainbow comes quickly and that it will be a sticky sticky rainbow
