Pregnancy Info HOME

Hey there, lets regroup and list when we're due. I can't even remember who's first?

Hi all,

Sorry I havent replied in awhile and had my first af since my 11 month old was born so now I guess I know that I am ovulating but still breastfeeding which caught me off guard a little so I'm charting my temps using a basal thermometer and going to a site called Fertilityfriend and hoping that it will do the trick again so good luck to all!!!!

Hello ladies, I just wanted to wish you all a very happy and safe holidays. This is a wonderful time of the year enjoy it as much as you can with your beloved ones. I will be joining you next month with my updates on TTC and my miserable days :) :) : ). ttyl

Hello KLM, Thats great you have gotten your af, as it will be easier to chart looking for ovulation...good luck!!! COL...great to hear from you. Looking forward to the new year of ttc together. My test day is dec 25 this cycle. pray for a BFP for me. we will be down south for 3 weeks, leaving next week, so I'll be out of the loop for awhile but will be back. till then, hugs!

Lovemy3, I will be praying for you and myself. We did not TTC this month because my husband was away. I am in my CD 18 ovulated 4 days ago. so my AF is due around Dec 26. And Jan will be my first month to tray after my M/C. I don’t know if I am ready though, emotionally I mean, but I am telling myself that I have to start somehow. Pray for me. I was in Florida Nov 28 for a week, we stayed in Miami. The weather there is not mine at all, I do not do will with humidity, and I hate air-conditioning, so I will leave the math for you : ) . good luck in your trip have fun.

Thanks Col. I will keep you in my prayers. We are going to Disney, my kids are so excited. It'll be great, especially if I get my BFP Christmas morning. But like I posted already, unfortunately the day of the surge we weren't able to bd. the night before and the morning after but not the day of. So... we'll see. If you get your af dec 26, we are pretty much on the same cycle, so we can plod along together in jan uary. remember KD? She is pretty much same schedule as well. She has just gotten her appt with specialist. Keep well, Hugs.

Hi Lovemy3, when got pregnant, the last time, we bd 3days before my ovulation day. So, I think you are ok. I am sure your kids are very excited about Disney I will be if I wear them. I hope you will not be with me in Jan, and then you will have a September baby. Did I tell you that I always wanted a September baby? I always wanted a baby girl born in September like me. It’s not because I am in love with myself, no, it’s just because I feel September is my lucky month. I have appointment with RE in Dec 28, just for curiosity. Best wishes for you and KD.

Thats great you have the appt. I still haven't done a thing yet. I don't even have a clue if I o for sure and what my FSH is, nothing, living in denial over here. I am going in in January to my family dr and will get the ball rolling. Last Jan1st, I said if I wasn't pregnant by Dec 31, 2006 I was not trying any later, now I am here with 1 more cycle to go and don't feel I can let it go. Have you ever seen an RE before? What country do you live in? Thats good news about you bding 3 days earlier than you o'd and concieving. I think I remember that, you went cycling etc in Quebec City etc. It will happen again for you, try not too stress. Often once you have concieved once it doesn't take as long next time trying. Its funny, September is the only month i didn't want to deliver in because for us its so darn busy, back to school, getting settled in the new classrooms for the kids, all their afterschool activities start up. My middle dd starts 1st grade in Sept and my youngest is off to kindergarten. I will need the tissues that day. I already get a big lump in my throat when i think of my youngest going off to school. I will miss them terribly during the day. But the seasons change and I can stop time from ticking forward. Have a great day, ttyl

OOps, I meant, I CAN'T keep time from ticking on.

Hi Lovemy3, this appointment with the RE was scheduled before I got pregnant, then I canceled when I conceived. So when we lost the baby, I called and they gave me another one. I live in Canada, Ontario. I think you too?? You are right about cant stop the time, they grow up and have there own lives. But still those emotional moments are the best memory. God bless you and your kids, and I really hope you will not need to go to any RE.

Hello girls : ) LOVEMY3 --- Disney, sounds exciting to me too (haven't been to Disney). Re : TTC, you'll the support from all of us, we know how rough this road can be. Enjoy and have fun this holiday, things will fall into place for you : ) KLM --- Nice to hear from you and that you got your first af in months, good luck and happy temping : ) TRACY --- Sorry : ( I missed your post, my computer scr*wed up on the downloading again.

I'm sure a RE is definitely a great move. I was scheduled to do the bloodworks and the other fertility tests etc just before I get pregnant ... hope the same happens for you too : ) To everyone else, hope all is well.

Hi COL : ) Sooooooo happyyyyyy to hear from youuuu!!!! Glad to hear you're doing better : ) Great to know you'll be back with us next month, hope af arrives on time for you.

Hello all! Gosh I feel like whenever I'm too busy to post everyone else is talking like crazy - I keep missing out!!!!!!!! I must try and clock in every day even if it's a quick hello. Oh no - hang on a minute - I don't do "quick" do I? LOL!!! Anyway............. Val - FANTASTIC NEWS about your amnio results. I'm soooooooo happy for you and now you can really relax and enjoy your pregnancy (and solid poop days!!) Well done to you and your bean. Great stuff! Tracy - any news on your results yet? I'm sure everything will be fine so don't worry. Your car sounds fab btw! Sann - I'm with your husband on the name Isaac - lovely ring to that one I think. My bean is also doing somersaults all the time now so I feel really relieved that I feel something every day. It's all becoming so real isn't it?!! KD - hope you're feeling OK today. I think it's great that you're taking control of the situation by seeing a specialist and I'm sure it will help you and hub to shed more light on everything. I wish you much much luck with it all. Re the Christmas build-up - I can totally relate! This year seems to be crazier than ever but I blame the pregnancy hormones for making me stupid so I couldn't even organise a piss-up in a brewery!!! LOL!! Going out to buy a tree today though and tomorrow will be making mince pies and Christmas pudding - a perfect Sunday activity!! BM5 (!!!! :-)) Glad you're feeling better - especially as you sound really busy. Hope you can get some time to relax over the holiday season. lovemy3 - glad to hear you're back to your old self again. Sorry to hear your kids aren't well though. Still - better now than when your on your vacation, isn't it? Thanks also for your support with my GD test. Can't wait to hear about your holiday. I really think you've got just a good a chance as any this month so try not to stress. Col - GREAT TO HEAR FROM YOU. I am so pleased that you're going to stay in touch with your TTC updates. We're all behind you all the way. Much baby dust to you and all the other TTC-ers!! Well the good news is that it looks like I've passed the GD test (I'll know for sure on Monday). Here's the update - I went into the doctors at 8am feeling very hungry as I wasn't allowed to eat or drink for at least 9 hours before the test. They took a pin prick of blood from my finger which measured my blood sugar level. Then I had to drink 300ml (over half a pint) of what they called juice - it was a bit sickly sweet but really not that bad and had been flavoured with blackcurrant which was quite nice I suppose. Then I had to wait in the office (even though I live next door! - there are occasions when people feel nauseous from the juice so they wanted to make sure I was OK) and at 9am they took another pinprick to measure. It had gone up 100 points!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (from 104 to 204!) I immediately thought "well that's it, I've failed!" and so for the next hour I sat in the waiting room worrying about the baby's health and contemplating how awkward it was going to be during Christmas to stick to diets etc. (Selfish old me!!) Anyway, at 10am I was called in again for a further pinprick. They tried the first time but the tester didn't work! However, the suspense wasn't really killing me as I was sure that I'd failed. Anyway, second atttempt and everything worked fine - the reading was 140. I'd passed! (They only do 2 hour tests here for some reason?) Hooray! They explained to me that the reason for the high second reading was because I'd just had the juice and the important thing was that my body could break it down in time which it did. What a relief! They also took a larger amount of blood to test in a lab straight after the last pinprick and, as I said, I'll get those results on Monday, but the doctor seemed to think all was well. What a stressful time - all I could think during the hour when I thought I wasn't going to pass was that I was a complete failure. Horrible feeling!! Anyway, I've resolved to steer clear of the sweet stuff even more than I was doing (although I think Christmas may be difficult - I'll still try) and I went swimming yesterday so I feel like I'm back in control again. So that's my update - a lengthy saga as usual but all good news. Glad everyone is well - speak to you all soon! XOXOXOXOX

Hopeful, congrats on the good reults of the GD test! Waiting and thinking there is something wrong is such a horrible feeling isn't it? Well, I'm glad that's over with for you. LM3, have a great vacation. My family is headed to Disney this coming week without me. I know this sounds terrible, but there's no way I could make it through that park right now being pregnant. When I work on my feet for four hours it's exhausting, imagine a day at Disney World. COL, glad to hear from you. Just keep on keepin' on girlie! Val, how are you feeling today? Hope you are back to normal. I had a sudden craving for Buffalo wings last night so I hesitantly ordered them at a restaurant because I thought for sure they would tear my stomach apart, and well, NOTHING! Being pregnant sure does weird stuff to your body. Any other time I would have had to go straight home and stay in the bathroom for an hour! To top it off I even had this disgustingly delicious chocolate cake for dessert, which I also never order by the way. All I can say is I ate like a pig last night and felt better than when i had a salad the night before. CRAZY BABY!!!!! Well, hope the rest of you are well. TTYL

hi everyone. well it's 6:30a and here I am at work. My only weekend off from the kids before xmas and our move. Was hoping to be shopping and packing, but just couldn't get done yesterday what I needed to. dh has to work today too so we decided to ride in together...ughh, getting up at 4:30 in the morning stinks...he does it every morning, I don't know how. Plus I got a call from my kids dad last night (midnight) and my oldest was MIA. Didn't come home at curfew as expected, I guess he went to the movies with friends and lied to his dad about it. It's so hard once they become driving age. Hard to control they're wearabouts. Ex thought he'd come to my house because of being afraid to go to his dads, but he never showed so I'm hoping he made it home to his dads okay. Didn't want to call too early, so I'm waiting a couple more hours. Makes me feel bad that the kids have such a hard time over there. I just talked to my ds last night and he was saying how he hated it over there. They've only been there for a week and a half. They were with me for 4+ weeks and I had no problems with them. Anyways, that's about it. Dh and I did manage to get some shopping done last night for the kids so feeling okay about that. Now that they're older, the gifts are fewer because of being higher priced. Hopeful, so glad you passed your GD! Way to go! And feeling bean every day, that's awesome, I can't wait for that. I feel like the baby on the thread at only 13wks! KLM, COL-great to hear from you, good luck ttcing in Jan. LM3-I still have my fingers crossed for a xmas morning BFP! :) Tracy-how's the new car? Hope the rain has subsided. Sann-glad to hear you doing well, I know auditors are a pain--and you really need to get to Disney! It's awesome and I bet it'll be spectacular at Xmas time--all the lights, I'm sure it'll be beautiful. Lately I've been enjoying driving around gazing at Christmas lights. Always a favorite past time of mine. Looking forward to doing in Xmas eve w/kids, as is our yearly tradition! Well, back to work for me. Happy Holidays everyone!

Good morning all, just a quick peek in, today we are doing Christmas dinner here at my house etc with all my family since we will be away, so 20 for dinner will be exciting. Hopeful...yaay about your test, try and go easy over Christmas season with the treats to stay on the safe side if you can. I'm happy you are experiencing all the movement now, thats great, BM5, I hope all worked out good with your MIA teen..I'm dreading that stage-LOL. Sann, KD, KLM, tylermommy, lovedblessings, tracy and all, thanks for your baby dust and encouragement. Sorry, i wish i could bablle more but I'm totally rushing this morning, ttyl till the hugs
