Aww Wilson it's so hard isn't it to feel happy for others when it's just a reminder that we not there yet. Try to hang in there x

 

[Wilson14]

Thanks Nikkibiscuit, just feel like I'm back to square one again. DH has his second SA this Friday but not feeling hopeful.

Take care.

Rage... managed to did cd#11 cd#13,14 &16 wanted to try cd17 and 19 but woke up yesterday with some sort of bug. I dragged myself into work as was short staffed. I vomited , temp 37.9 so got sent home. Had riggers all night. Temp still 37.9 was 38.7 or higher during night. I’m having cramp at ovaries the past 2 days and was really painful yesterday along with lower back pain My whole body is sore at joints and fatigued. I just feel like it’s always something stopping it from happening. I have no idea what dpo I am as didn’t temp regularly or use opks but at a guess 5dpo. I did have ewcm at 11dpo which is early for me and af cramping cd#14. Currently I have loads of creamy cm and cervix is closed and much softer than normal at this time . I am still feeling unwell and hot. Would a bug stop a pregnancy from happening?

No. On the contrary, our hormones at conception drop our immune responses to allow for implantation to be successful so it's very common for early pregnancy to actually cause bugs to catch us if you know what I mean.
Cm sounds good, cervix sounds good.
Don't want to get your hopes up but certainly don't think you're already out. Xx

Yeah I know I won’t be pregnant anyway but was just annoyed at the situation. I’m still lying in my bed as so fatigued. I am so happy for Sunflower it’s made my day even though I feel ill.

I just always had it in my head I would fall pregnant in March which is bizarre. We still have 3 more tries before we sign up to ivf.

Never say never. I saw on that thread you've had aches down below as well. I only got those with this tww, not with any of the cp's. I'm keeping my fingers firmly crossed for you. Xxx

How are you keeping GG? X

Good, I'm glad...you should never let go of hope.

I'm good ta. The hospital likes to scare me occasionally and let me think something serious is wrong, but all is actually fine. Had my second anomaly scan on Monday and got some amazing views and they confirmed that baby's heart and stomach are actually fine thank god. I have an anterior placenta so have had to wait a bit longer but wow...baby is kicking the crap out of me on a regular basis now. Dan is able to hear it moving and hear it's heartbeat with his ear on my belly and he's felt a few kicks as well.

Honestly, at 38 and after the losses, after 10 years with Dan of dreaming and the high chances of never getting pregnant, it's definitely worth all of the anguish and heartache on the journey to get here.

I'm living in constant hope that you all get there as well. It might not be tomorrow, it might not be any time soon, but I want it for you all so much.

I'm being one of those annoying people now so will shut up. My fingers remain firmly crossed for you though xxx

Awww so amazing GG I am so glad everything is going well !! I can imagine its worth it and then some. I just hope I get there one day as couldnt face going through all this for nothing. I said I'd try till I hit my 40's so turn 35 in August so 5 more years to try . Take care x

 

[Nikkibiscuit]

Aw alexis gutted to hear you are poorly. But glad to hear you came home from work and hope u are resting up!

Our bodies trick us into all sorts. I honestly don't know how you are meant to tell the diff3rence between pg symptoms and illness or hormone wobbles or just having an off day!?! I like to think that one day if I can my BFP I'll look back and go on that was what symptoms were. But I'm not hopeful lol

Really hope another long termed can get those magic 2 lines soon x

 

[Nikkibiscuit]

One born....to watch or not to watch. I have always loved it and it has made me broody many a time over the years. I feel like it's a little painful now we are TTC and not having any luck. But weird still feel drawn to watch it and perhaps relate to some of the stories especially when couples have had trouble conciveing or a difficult journey.

Anyone else feel like This?

I used to watch it before ttc but tried to watch it own my own as DH isn't interested and it did make me cry ...but I am very emotional person yet I would still try watch it again!

 

[millielaura]

I used to watch it before my daughter but weirdly I can't cope with it this time around ttc. I saw online it was a suprise pregnancy on it so I was like nope not even going to turn it on lol. Been away from here as been struggling quite a lot since my miscarriage. We are going to have a break from ttc if we don't get a bfp this month I think. Or at least try and be more relaxed about it. Zxx

Sorry to hear your struggling. Sending you hugs. I have missed you on here. Yeah we are trying 2 more cycles then prob take a break while we join ivf waiting list. Where are you in your cycle? Sending you baby dust x

 

[Nikkibiscuit]

Sorry to hear you having rough time millielaura I can't even begin to imagine the heartbreak of MC.

One born last night I found strangely comforting. One couple had taken 3 years to fall pregnant then lost their first baby through early labour. Then went on to have 2 more and the mum had had cancer as a child. So made me feel like there are people out there worse off but it can still come good in the end.

That having been said there was a young ish couple who had fallen pg with both babies within a week and the dad obviously felt proud of his manhood as a result. Lol.

I have days when I can't bear to be around babies or children and then other days where I feel I need to watch these things and spend time with my niece and nephew while they are young cos might be the best chance we get.

Such a rollercoaster x

 

[_GG_]

Nikki, one of my closest friends gave up trying at 40. Numerous failed IVF rounds after 10 years of trying, she just got to a point playing with her godson that she thought she did have the opportunity to have children in her life, just not hers. She looked at all she wanted to do that a child would make difficult and decided to embrace that life and embrace all her friends children. She's already bought the cutest things for our baby to be and is my most supportive friend. She doesn't even have sad days anymore. She's found her role and realises she's actually really happy with it as she hasn't had to compromise her own life. I doubt there are many women out there who could do that, but for her, it works.

However, it's hopefully not something any of you ladies have to face. Xx

That's amazing she could do that. I don't think I could do that. Being around my friends kids at the moment only reminds me what I want and don't have. I always feel sad when I go home. My brothers have no kids and my husband brother has 2 children who live in Northampton so miles from us so we see them 2 times a year if we are lucky. Again it makes me and DH sad after spending time with them

 

[Nikkibiscuit]

I hope so too GG but there are ways to find a peace with life I think if you embrace it. I know my fur babies would help get my through. I hope we don't have to face that future as my hubby I think has his heart set on a family even more than me.

Hoping for us that talking it through with the docs will at least make us feel like we have put one foot on the ladder and are moving forwards. Financially pressure has eased a little too....we have got rid of car that was financed now that hubby has one through work. And so far so good with my friend sharing Flynn....she is hopefully doing her first ODE on him at Easter. I am getting so much pleasure out of seeing him being enjoyed by us both too. He s such a beautiful boy with a big heart. Excited for their season ahead.

All this is helping me think forward at the minute so hoping can keep hubby in that frame of mind too and keep his anxiety at bay. If we can have a couple months good run at clearing credit card I know he will feel much better for it x
