Ttc shit boat - long term ttcers

[stacesl3]

Happy bd'ing Dolly

I choose to be positive too clementine, as i said before the more they harp on about age etc, the more determined i am to prove them wrong. I'm not one to give up easily...... I'll bloody get off this boat one way or another lol and I intend to take you all with me

Morning ladies,
I'm still here, sat in the lifeboat on witch spotting duty and waiting for you to join me. It seems as if I'm a crap shot though! That said, I am a little seasick at the mo! I also need 12hrs rest periods, so someone needs to join me so we can do shifts.

Lisey, hope the sore boobs were more than witch niggles, Staces- big hug -anniversaries are hard, Dolly -great news (from the consultant and on the job)- hope the dirty night away works in the same way for you as it did for me, Clementine - grrrrr I could go 10 rounds with some insensitive docs (although at present I may be asleep after two) - but I like the plan of action for this month! Purplecloud - chin up. If I've missed anyone, sorry!

My poor oh has no action now - we're both too scared of anything going wrong! But just to motivate you ladies, apparently sex burns almost as many calories as a 30 min jog - so get back in those bedrooms!!!!

Hi Hopeful great to hear from you, tiredness, sickness all healthy pregnancy signs. I can understand fear of having sex, though I think baby bean is well protected. I need to lose a few pounds so I may get my hubby in to the bedroom later have a nice relaxing weekend - it's lovely to finally have a pregnant shipmate

 

[dolly26]

Hi everyone,

I am 14dpo today, I lasted all the way to this morning to test...BFN!! I actually had a little hope this cycle as I had no spotting at all for the first time in years. So now I stop the progesterone and just wait for AF to arrive, prob in 2-3 days. I am so fed up of trying and getting bfns all the time. One more month before discussions about IVF, scary thinking about that xx

Hi Lisey, I'm sorry it was a BFN - it's so tough as the months pass by, but I think your perseverance re. the spotting has paid off and you know that the progesterone has helped which is progress, the thought of IVF is scary, myself and my DH are just starting to discuss where we go from here and part of me just doesn't want to accept Plan A isn't working. I'm making Sept my PMA month - trying to be healthy and relax and praying we'll sneak in a BFP

Thanks Clementine,
You're right, I should see it as a positive, my body is finally doing what it should be doing and it is good to know the progesterone is doing its job.
IVF terrifies me, all those drugs, the mood-swings, possibility of cancellation or it just not working. Its a lot to take in. Are you considering IVF too?
I hope your September PMA works wonders xx

Morning ladies

Sorry about the bfn lisey, sometimes they are worse to see when you have a little hope.
Hey hopeful, lovely to hear from you. Are you planning on having an early scan?
Glad you had a good night away dolly, lets hope its done the trick

CD9 for me, think i will start poas today! I thought I would gived soy a go this cycle, took it cd5-7 and only took 40mg the first night then 80mg the second and third as I am a bit wary of it, esp as i know i ovulate so wanted to be careful. WHo knows, maybe it will make a small difference, i live in hope

[Dee28]

Sorry lisey, the progesterone certainly works in holding of AF, mine came just a day after stopping it, I hope you're ok xx

I've finished my clomid now thankfully, slept better last might, no night sweats! First tracking scan Wednesday, I hope it's all good this time xx

 

[lisey]

Thanks Staces, I hope the soy does the trick for you this cycle

Good luck with the scan Dee, must be nice when the clomid is done with for the cycle. I am glad the cyclogest works as it shows it was progesterone causing my spotting otherwise I would still spot. I told them for 2 years that it was a problem but it took going private for someone to listen! xx

 

[stacesl3]

Afternoon,

Hope all you ladies are well. Very quiet on the boat today..... I have nothing to share with you all im afraid, my ticker says I am in fertile period! I dont feel very fertile though lol

[lisey]

Get bding just incase staces.

I feel miserable today, so close to tears. I am sick of everything, of bfns, the worries with my son and I hate my work. I am finding it so hard being there, they are all so horrible. I have to listen to them make jibes about some of the children 'oh he's so vacant', 'he has nothing between his ears' etc. I find this hard cos they make these comments about the children who have potential learning difficulties and it just upsets me so much cos my son has learning difficulties. I am seriously considering leaving and just being unemployed for a while because everything is a bit of a struggle for me right now.
Sorry about the rant, its all getting on top of me. I have no PMA left in me xx

 

[snowbee]

Sorry to hear the boat has hit bumpy waters for those on board. Hopefully there is calm water ahead so we can take the first steps to launching those life boats.

I'm cd18 and no sign of ov yet. Fed up of waiting please hurry up little egg.

 

[MelC2011]

Sorry to hear you've been having a tough time lately Lisey.
I feel really blah! For some reason I really can't be arsed to bd this month. Gonna miss our chance if I don't get my arse in gear.

How is everyone else? I've not been around much lately, finding the heartache month after month with no bfp too much.
xx

 

[lisey]

Hope ov hurries for you snowbee xx

Thanks Mel, I never feel like bding any month. I think I associate it with the disappointment of bfns and miscarriages, I swear I am scarred for life in that respect. I just want to kiss and be pregnant, that would be nice.
The heartbreak is too much to bare sometimes, I wish I could sleep and wake up once this nightmare journey is over with xx

 

[Dee28]

Oh I so wish you could kiss and get pregnant! I said to one of my friends that I wouldn't wish this much sex on anyone! Nancy started school today, I wanted more than anything to be pregnant by the time this day came around, I feel lost without my little companion

 

[Clementine]

Hi Shipmates - definitely sounds like we've reached stormy waters, I found my break from posting did me the world of good in August I still dropped into PF most days just didn't post it give me some space from cycle watching & recharged my batteries.

Lisey sending you big hugs and Mel2011 too. We're in this tub together and we will get off this boat with our healthy babies we all deserve our happy ending x

I have to admit I love bd'ing with my hubby, when we met first we had sex every day, over the last year with work and TTC we're not bd'ing as much I keep thinking if only I tried when we first met 4 years ago we might have had a better chance, but then I'm also glad we were married before TTC as I'm not sure how I'd have coped with the MMC's if we were just dating. Kissing to make babies sounds like a fun plan

Dee lots of luck for this cycle

Staces hope the Soy works

Hello lovely ladies sorry I have been awol I haven't abandoned ship just been busy peeling those potatoes, so they are ready for my two weeks away it's all been crazy wedding prep and Friday is nearly here eeek x

 

[claire2602]

Hey all - ive been quiet for a few months but am back and ready to jump back on boat! How is everyone?xxx

 

[stacesl3]

Hello

sorry your feeling miserable lisey, its hard when everything just gets on top of you, we all know how depressing this ttc is. If you are really unhappy in your job would you consider leaving? I know that feeling all too well, I hated the job i had before this one, i hated the boss, the work was too much, I actually felt like crying every night i would get home. I was only there 3 months in the end, luckily I got this job and although I still have my moans about it, I like the people here and have been here 8 years now! Life is too short to be unhappy!!

Is it this Friday you get married Sarah?? exciting stuff!!

I haven't even BD yet, not had a positive opk yet. FX for tonight as this may be my only chance! OMG kissing to get pregant would be awesome, or even better just holding hands
