HI girls! Hoping - I'm really hoping for you girl!! That's a great sign that your temps are still up!! How is everyone else? I forgot a lot from the other thread.... ***PL - glad you are still doing great! Sam - you probably did have your little ones! Congrats! ***Ash - so glad it wasn't an ectopic, but sorry af shoed up! Hang in there! ***fatz - where are you in your cycle...waiting to o right? Good luck! ***lacey - good luck too! Sounds like you are 1 or 2 dpo now. As for me, 8 dpo, still just waiting. I went this morning to get my progesterone test...so hopefully it's high, but it should be since I'm taking prometrium every evening. Temps are a little lower than last month...don't know if that's a good thing, prob. not. For those who are new or those who forgot, you can always feel free to check out my chart at fertilityfriend.com / home / kimmer23 (just take out the spaces). Well, good luck to everyone! And, where are you sarah, dj, etc? ↑

Happy Monday to you all! *Fatz** Thanks for the vote of of confidence! I'm not worried My doc pretty much prepared me for this which is why she prescribed clomid. It was exciting at the possibility of O'ing on my own but hey clomid should help with this. Well My Birthday is on Friday and I'm hoping next month I'll get a BFP as a late birthday present. Wish me luck girls!! **Want2bpreggo* Sorry AF I'm rooting for BFP next cycle for ya! We need a BFP we didn't have any in April did we? We need one this month! ↑

Kimmer, thanks for the new thread. Hoping.. I'm so excited for you! Don't get discouraged just because you had some cramping either. With my DD's pg, I had cramps that felt just like AF, and was convinced AF was coming at any minute. I can't tell you how many times I went to the bathroom just knowing AF was there... and then nothing. It happens to a lot of women. Good luck! I just said another prayer for you!
I had a really disturbing dream last night. I think I'm just obsessing about this whole pregnancy thing way too much... but in my dream, I was bleeding (like AF bleeding) and then noticed that all my internal female parts had fallen out of me and I was holding them and crying. In my dream I knew that I could see my other felopian tube and both of my ovaries and my whole uterus. Freakish... I know! In my dream I also knew that I'd never be able to have another baby. It pretty much scared the crap out of me when I woke up, and I couldn't sleep any more after that. ↑

ashgirl - scary dream. yikes! I'm sure it's just the obsessing and worrying though. london - good luck with IVF!! I've heard a lot of great success stories with IVF. My dh and I will look into it in JUne if this and the next cycle don't work. Good luck everyone else too! ↑
Name: Hoping1 | Date: May 5th, 2008 10:39 AM
Hi ladies!! Thanks for the votes of confidence girls! And thanks for the new thread Kimmer! **Fatz**Hopefully you'll get good news at your appt. Your appt is Friday---isn't that late? Are you BDing? When do you normally ov? (I usually do cd 15, which is why I am concerned for you!) **Want2be**Sorry af showed. What are your plans for this cycle? Clomid? **Donna** I didnt ov on clomid the first month either. My DR had to move me up to 100 mg. But then it happened! **DJ**Where are you girl? **Sarah**Hope things are going well! **Kimmer**Temps don't look too low... when do you get your results? **Ashgirl**you're having a great attitude about this all. I know you want to adopt, and that's an awesome outlook. GL to you! **All our PG mommies to be** Hope you're doing well! Check in and update us! ↑

Hey all hope u are doing well I'm cd 7 an doing good no problems with cyst lately hoping to have a healthy early O praying anyway good luck! ↑
Name: Fatz | Date: May 5th, 2008 10:45 AM
Hoping, when are you testing,, Tst plz, im excited for you.. But i also know you just dont wanna be dissapointed.. I usually ovulate on CD 18.. I am currently CD 12.. I will BD, On Wed, Friday and every day thereafter.. Hopefully Dh Sperm count wud have increased this month.. Good luck to you. I really hope you guys get the BFP soon.. I cant wait to hear good news.. I emailed Cheri for fun.. She said , August and a Boy so shoo thats long, but ive heard that she is sometimes off by a month or so.. Sometimes earlier you will get the BFP. So i hope thats the case for me... and i get my BFP by July, otheriwse im gng for IVF. this IUI is also costly and if i keep going for it and it not working, i rather invest that money in IVF which had a higher success rate.. ↑

Hi Ladies, Just checking in really quick :) I'm having my c-section at 12:30 today :) Daisy and Lola will be here soon!! I have to admit that I am a little scared. Life as we know it is going to change so drastically!! I'll check in again in a little while. Hugs and kisses to all!! ↑
**Ash** I think we were posting at the same time! Weird! Your dream was scary! I had a scary dream, too, last night.... I think sometimes dreams (or nightmares) may really just be our worst fears being acted out in the privacy of our heads. I hope you have sweet dreams tonight! And thanks for the info about your pregnancy. I am trying so hard not to get my hopes up but it is SO hard! **Fatz** I will probably test tomorrow again. I want to wait, but I just can't! In fact, I am probably gonna go to the $ store and buy m ore HPTs since I am down to my lasts $ store one. I still have one "real" one, but I am saving that to confirm a $ store one.... Am I strange? :-) I am glad you don't ov till cd 18 (well, not glad, but you knwow hat I mean). I was worried for you!! Charting has been the best thing for me b/c now I have some idea of what is normal for me or not.... GL to you!! Happy BDING! **Sam**HOW EXCITING!! We have all been thinking of you so much!! Maybe you can post pictures some where of your darlilngs! I feel like I know them already! **Sarah**How are you girl? **Schar** How are you feeling? Hope the pain is getting better and things are smoothing out... I'm off ladies.... every time I go to the bathroom I expect to see AF... pray and cross fingers, toes and threads for me! ↑

Hey everyone. I'm starting my clomid in just a little bit! I'm on CD26 so any day now, really! I'm sooo anxious. I'm not sure if I should take it on cd2-6 or CD3-7 though. ↑
Name: sarah35 | Date: May 5th, 2008 4:09 PM
Hi girls. Just checking in to see some bfp!! Hoping--its your turn girl-- im rooting for you:-) ASHGIRL** thats a scary dream-- thats more like what my real life is all about right now!! :-) ALL***im trying to stay positive and think about the good things about why i have to go through this..... and my guess is-- someone gave me a chance to see my kids grow up! otherwise, had i not gotten pregers and had the MC and DNC, then i would just be sitting here getting sicker and maybe MC'ing more times. I m just waiting for my oncologist to call me and set up the hysterectomy, but i will have to have one in the next couple weeks.... and a total one, ovaries and all. we arent sure how far the cancer cells have spread or where infact they were coming from. I had a CT scan yesterday and the radiologist says she saw nothing to be concerned about.... Hopefully this will be my first and last experience with cancer. im not sad at all though. its kinda disheartening that i cant have kids anymore...unless i adopt (which im not going to do)....but im just happy that we caught it so early. I will continue to check in on you guys and give you updates:-) SAMMYS***** yayayay, i hope one day soon we can see some pics of your little dolls. ↑

Hey ladies! I haven't been on since beginning of April. It was just too hard. For any who have joined recently I have been ttc since Feb. '06 and have been having more aggressive treatments and been on this site since Oct. '07. Any-who... I just needed a break from all things baby related. I just read the past posts. ~Teddy & Rowan~ YIPPEE! I am so excited for you both and am glad to see that your babies are happy and healthy. ~Sarah~ I don't even know what to say. You are the one I would most wonder about when I would think of this site. I just want to send you all kinds of love and hoe from Austin. To all the girls that have been on here with me... fatz, hoping, kimmer, london, schar, cj, and anyone else I forgot... it was good to hear what has been happening with you all. I think dh & I are about ready to get back in the baby game. We're going back to the dr. soon to see what the next step is. I really don't want to do ANOTHER iui, but dh wants to try one more time. If we don't do another one our dr. want to do a surgery to look for endemetriosis. That's what I'm hoping we'll do. Either way I'm seeing a ray of hope. Yay! And to all the new girls, welcome. It's good to hear your stories too. I hope this site has been as great for you as it has been for me. That's all for now!!! ↑

donna: actually i got my bfp at the end of march. had bleeding. doc said we lost it and then found out the day before my birthday (april 8th) we were still preggy and saw the heartbeat. so i'm not sure who else got april bfp's, but i believe a few others did too. ↑

Hi girls!! **Sammy** you are now officially a mother - I'm so excited for your new journey. I bet your little girls are so beautiful, can't wait to see they pictures. Hope you're feeling ok. **Hoping** This IS your month - my sister didn't have any symptoms at all for the first 7 weeks and felt like she was gonna come on too!! So good luck honey **Fatz** August isn't too far away (but July would be better). **Sarah** I can't say it enough - but I'm sooo proud of the way you are coping and being positive - you will get through this. xx **Rowan** How you keeping sweetie? **Kimmer** Thanks for the new thread - hope you're ok!! **Ash** Don't worry about that horrid dream - they say that if you talk about it - then it won't come true!! You will have a healthy baby one day. **Jamie** Nice to see you back. It probably did you the world of good staying away!! Good luck to you. As for me CD6 and nothing to tell. To all of you who I missed I am thinking of you. **Babydust to all** xxxx ↑

Hi ladies.... 15 dpo. AF was due yesterday-- tested today--BFN. My temps also went down .3 degrees from yesterday to today. Still .8 above coverline, though.... I'm not sure what is going on and I'm really frustrated. If my temps were up, that's one thing, but to be down, no af and bfn is frustrating. Anyway, I'll be on again later when I can read more.... Trying to stay optimistic but realistic, too... Have a good day! ↑

Hi girls! Hoping - don't give up yet...no af!!! And, your temp is still above the coverline...GOOD LUCK!! ****schar and fatz - good luck o'ing! ***sarah - you have an absolutely awe inspiring attitude. I'm glad you are taking everything in stride. You are a great person, and you'll get through this unscathed for you and your fam! ***cj - where are yuo in your cycle now? good luck! ***Carolina - welcome and good luck with clomid. ***jamie - glad to see you again. I'm sure it was good for you to take a break. It would probably be good for me too...but I'm too obsessed ;) ***dj - where are you? hanging in there? ***ash - good luck this cycle! We will all be moms...if through natural means, fertility drugs, or adoption. And, anon - do you still read? I miss you... OK - If I forgot anyone...so sorry, but I'm thinking of all of you everyday!

Hello ladies How is everyone! Yah fo Sammy !! Yes Fatz I have 1 tube taken out last month due to hydrosalpinx in my right tube Doctor said my left tube was ok but it was closed so she was able to open it up but she said IVF would be my better option so I am going to try and give it a shot because she said my only tube can close up again, ThanksSchar I hope it works on our first try !!Well babydust to all !!! Oh hey Jamie nice to have you back you will be pregnant before you know it!! ↑
Name: Hoping1 | Date: May 6th, 2008 11:05 AM
Welll ladies, I started spotting today. No full force yet, but I think I am out for the month. :-(. Oh well, At least AF showed and it's a fresh start. I"ll call in my clomid RE today. **Sarah** You have agreat attitude about things! GL to you!! **Fatz**How are you? **Jamie**It is hard.... Welcome back and stay positive with us! This thread has kept me sane these last 11 months! **Schar**Isn't it still too early to o? I wouldn't worry just yet. I know it's hard to wait though... **Carolina** Welcome! When you take it is personal preference, or up to the dr. I take mine days 3-7, but I think some people take it 2-6 and some take it 5-9.... if this is your first time, I would follow the advice of your RE. **Okay ladies, I'm off.... Have a good day ladies! Thanks for all the positive thoughts! Sorry to disappoint you... ↑
Name: Fatz | Date: May 6th, 2008 2:52 PM
Hey:) Hoping spotting doesnt mean Af is here. Plz im really hoping u preggers this month. Im keeping my fingers crossed for u. It aint there til it shows in full. Schar u right behind me, mayb we will ovulate together n we can be 2ww buddies. Kimmer wats up girl. ↑
Name: Hoping1 | Date: May 6th, 2008 3:40 PM
Fatz**Thanks for the optimistic thinking, but I believe AF is just about in full force now. We'll see. I ordered my clomid, and I called my DR and left a message that we need to see what's going on. Maybe all my proactiveness will bring a BFP on! I'm just trying to stay positive and remember it's not over til it's over.... Appreciate the positive thoughts, though! So--some of you other ladies need to pull through for us for May. It's been a slow few months. --Fatz, Kimmer, Schar, Jamie, CJ, Donna, Carolina, London, Ash-- make me proud girls! **By the way, Carolina, are you from NC or SC? I am from NC** ↑
