Omg I think my sister in law is pregnant now meaning she will not only have the first boy but yet again I'm not pregnant. ↑

**Schar** I know how you feel. Last year my sister-in-law got pregnant about 4 months after we started trying and now they have a baby boy. He was the first grandchild in my husband's family and it kills me still. They get so much attention and I feel like we're left out. My brother and sister in law are even favored for better sleeping arrangements during visits just b/c of the baby. I have to admit I know its wrong but I'm jealous. When we do have a child it will obviously not be as big a deal as the first. Its hard when you have to be reminded constantly that you don't have child by your own family. But it makes me determined to get there. ↑

yes it makes me determined but my one sister in law that has the same mom as my husband is on baby #2 which is due exactly one month before I was and now his other sister on his dads side is probably gonna have the first boy I had a dream about it 2 nights ago poof shes pregnant I know it sounds selfish I would feel better if I wasn't going on cd 45 and the fact that my last O was in april good luck girl ↑

Hang in the **Schar** You are in my prayers. Please let me know how the ultrasound goes on Friday and what the dr. says. Hopefully they'll prescribe you something that will help AF come. I don't think anything you said sounds selfish. You deserve a child. ↑
Name: junebugg | Date: Jun 12th, 2008 1:33 AM
I don't think it sound's selfish but I'm kinda thinking about waiting because my older sister is thinking about trying for their first child, all of us have kids but her and I don't want to take attenion away from her and i don't want to feel like we might have to compete for family attenion. But it's hard at the same time because I don't have much time to have one more because I have 3 thin spot's in my uterus and they stitched them together to give me one last chance to carry and I feel bad i'm on a time limit but she is too because she got diagnosed with lups and she wont be able to have kids for to much longer either. ↑

Hi girls. Sorry haven't been on all week but I have been reading every day. I'm CD14 and nothing to report. **Schar** I know how you feel. We been trying for 4 1/2 years and my sister in law fell pregnant and had a little girl 3 years ago, then had another little girl at the end of April! My sister fell pregnant and had a little girl Oct 2006 - my dad doesn't know we are trying - but he's 64 and all he's ever wanted is a little boy. Whenever we go out and he has a drink its always "I want a grandson and only you can give me one now" so no pressure!! **Hoping** So sorry AF showed - i was sure this was you month!! Never mind us oldies can keep trying together!! **Fatz** GL with the IVF - you probably end up with triplets!!!! **Rowan** Where you hiding, pop in and let us know how everythings going. **Sarah** Hope you still reading, we miss you xx ↑

WHERE IS EVERYONE. ** Mama4** Did you test again? **Hoping** How are you? **Schar** What did your dr. say? Did they give you something to help you start AF? ↑
Name: Hoping1 | Date: Jun 12th, 2008 9:47 PM
Hi ladies! **Schar** Glad to hear things are looking good for you. Are you officially in your new cycle yet? Have you considered provera to start things up? **Fatz**How are you girl? I must have missed your news about trying IVF. I thought you were going to be on bcp for a few months.... but either way, I just hope things work out for you... **Mama** What's going on? **Donna** cd 6 here girl. I know we're not cycle buddies really, but just wanted to throw my love your way! **June, Schar, everyone** I am so with you. It is so hard to not be jealous when it seems like everyone around you is just like blinking and getting pregnant. I told my DH the other day that if I got one more email from my friend about how she just loves hearing her peanuts heartbeat, I might jump through the PC and punch her. NOT a very mature response. I'm happy for her, I just don't want to hear about it ALL THE TIME. I'm with you ladies....! **As for me, cd 6. DH picked up his cup for the sperm count test. Right now we have too much drama, so we might shoot (ha!) for next week. I'll keep you posted. I don't want it to be him, I don't want it to be me, but I do want to know if there is something we should be doing... so I'm kind of scared to know and kind of scared to not know.... Ah well.. the joys of ttc. Hope you all have a great night! ↑

Name: london | Date: Jun 13th, 2008 12:23 PM
Hello ladie sorry I been so busy. Well i have started to take my lupron shot I have been on them for eight days fatz they really do not hurt but I do tense up everytime DH gives me a shot! They say the lupron puts you in menopause state but I had not had any side effects yet yeah!! Well I suppose to be on AF by the 14th so the that is sat so if I am not on by then i give the a call on monday. Fatz its really a emotional thing but have you had a Larposcopy done if not I really recommend you to do that first because I had a HSG done 3 years ago and come to find out I still had a block tube. Hello ladies I have a lot of catching up to do. ↑
Name: Hoping1 | Date: Jun 13th, 2008 2:05 PM
Hey everyone! **Schar** How did your ultrasound go? **Fatz** So what exactly are you doing? I am confused by all the different comments... fill me in dear! **Mama**What's new? **As for me, cd 7. I have a quest though. My periods are usually 4-5 days. For the last 3-4 days I have not really had af, not heavy at all, but I have had brown discharge. Like globs of it. Sorry, I know that is tmi. Am I still bleeding or spotting or could something be wrong? I am also having slight pain in my left ovary side, but I am not sure if that is b/c I am on clomid.. . any thoughts? Thanks ladies! ↑
Name: donnams83 | Date: Jun 13th, 2008 3:32 PM
**Hoping** Does your dr. monitor you every month? I know clomid has made my cycle come sooner and be lighter. I would ask your dr. Its probably nothing to worry about every reacts differently. How long have you been taking clomid? **Schar** I'm glad it looks like you will O next round I just hope they give you something to bring AF. As for me cd 3 started 2nd round of clomid. I don't really have anything to report. I feel typical AF symtpoms and I can't wait until its gone. Other than that I decided I would focus on exercise and trying to eat organic this round. DH has finally agreed that if 2 more months pass and we haven't concieved he'll go get his guys tested. ↑
Name: schar | Date: Jun 13th, 2008 4:11 PM
my ultrasound was good I'm going to see if I can get some natural stuff to bring on af I am trying a few things tonight they should work by monday cd 46 here crazy if this natural stuff works I will bring on af whenever I want good luck girls ↑
Name: Hoping1 | Date: Jun 13th, 2008 5:00 PM
Donna** Sorry to hear af showed. We're only 4 cds apart, so given the scarcity of this thread anymore, I guess we're cycle buddies (or as close as possible! :-) ). This month is my 4th month on clomid in a row. It may be nothing, we'll see. DH is going to take his guys in Tuesday or Wednesday morning. We already have the cup. So we'll see. At least that will be an answer one way or another. Have you had the HSG test done yet Donna? **Schar** You go for it girl! If nothing else, at least Monday isn't too far away. GL to you! ↑
Name: donnams83 | Date: Jun 13th, 2008 6:36 PM
**Hoping** No I have not had HSG yet. My doctor did an ultrasound of my ovaries and uterus. That was to make sure the cysts had disappeared from my PCOS after taking metformin. She doesn't want me to do anything until we know the clomid is not working. 2-3 more months. Aww I have a cycle buddy. Its depressing how sparse the postings have gotten. I guess so many have gotten preggers that its just us left. WHERE IS MAMA4!! Get your butt on here and tell us whats going on. **Schar** good luck to you with your natural stuff I hope it works. I know it will be a relief when AF comes. ↑
schar: have you tried agnus castus? or vitex. same thing. i took that and it is natural, been used by the japanese for thousands of years and it helps give you a normal flow, less pms, helps you get sleepy at night like our bodies are meant to and it also helps you have a regular period. not sure if it helps you ovulate, but i had a period like once every 3 months and started taking that and after 3 weeks i had a period. it has no known side effects unless you're allergic to the plant itself, but that is also rare. you can buy it at any natural shop. it also has chasteberry in it. good luck!!! i'm sending baby dust your way! ↑
Name: schar | Date: Jun 14th, 2008 3:15 PM
yes and vitex is very good for ovulation but I have no eggs ready to ovulate cause my cyst which is why no ovulation and no af ↑

Well ladies I am so happy to be back on here. I miss you all when I get so busy! THis is such a great support! I hear everyone on the jelious deal. Dh is number 12 of 15 children. They have babies all the time. In the last 10 months that we have been tcc there has been 8 pregnancy and or births in his brothers sister whoever. Every Sunday at church they are always asking when we are having our next for almost the last year it has been we are trying. Some of the people didnt even plan their pregnancies! So I am pretty depressed right now with AF showing. I really thought clomid was going to be my magical pill. I am supposed to be starting it again now but i dunno because the side effects are omg! hoping and donna we are all kind of close in cycles cd 3 for me. So schar sorry no luck for you. WE really need to see a bfp soon! I need some hope. Fatz glad to see ur doing well and lots of babby dust all!!! ↑
Name: donnams83 | Date: Jun 15th, 2008 1:16 AM
**Mama4** I am so happy to see you back on. I'm sorry AF showed though. You know I hyped myself up too on clomid being my magic pill and I was dissapointed when AF came. DH and I and trying to be healthier and in 2 months if nothing has happened he is going to get tested. **Kimmer** where are you, how are you? **Teddy** How have you been feeling of late? Anything new to report? **Hoping** and **Mama4** We are so close in cycles this month its eerie...I'm hoping its our lucky charm. **Fatz** How are you? **Schar** I hope your weekend is going well, do you think the natural stuff is working? Please let us know everything after your appt on Monday (atleast I think you said Monday). Well as for me cd 5. Today all the horrible side effects I hate about clomid snuck up on me. I was so crabby in wal-mart today I was practically pushing DH out the door. I was actually mad b/c he was taking too long to pick out cheese. I felt so silly later, He's being such a gentleman about it though. I hope I don't have to take clomid much longer. BABYDUST to all. ↑
Name: mama4andmore | Date: Jun 15th, 2008 12:01 PM
WEll i decided to take another round of clomid. I am hoping it works but i am only going to try it one more cycle. It makes me sooooooooooo sick and omg I am so hot all the time. I have been hot since i first took it. So cd4 here. Hoping everyone is enjoying fathers day! Teddy have you found out what you are having yet? Schar hopefully ttomarrow will bring you something good. Donna three is supposed to be the charm. So maybe it will happen this month for us. for dh is parents if we have another baby is will be the youngest grandchild now unless someone else gets preggers after me. It will be i think grandchild number 72! For my family grandchild number 6 to my mom and 5 to my dad. I am his only child. So well I just can't wait to see what happens. I think ttc would be so bad if you didnt have to wait for so many things for so long. If ttc was done in 2 week periods that wouldn't be so bad. So now i have to wait about 2 weeks to ttc. Then 2 weeks to see if it happend. Just a lot of anxiety from ttc. So anyways good luck everyone. ↑

schar: well it didn't make me ovulate, just started my period. you might consider giving it a try. it's such awesome stuff unless you burp it back up lol. **donna and mama** tomorrow we hope to find out the sex of the baby. i'm keeping my fingers crossed for a healthy one. i don't prefer boy or girl. i just prefer healthy. but i'm starting to stick out a bit lol. and even though i'm only 18w (tomorrow) i can feel my belly button starting to bulge a little lol. ↑
