Well here it is hopefully Maya will see this and sticky it. This is for when we have ovulated and need to vent and compare and stress out over the 2 weeks and then laugh at the craziness of each other hehehehe
Im currently 3DPO so state yours here and we shall keep updating as the days go on. Perhaps a link to your charts aswell would be even better
Mine is in my signature just click on the pink box!

I'm 6DPO, tommorrow will be day 7 (I consider that 1/2 way in the long 2 week wait)......although they say if you make it to day 17 its almost a FOREGONE CONCLUSION, as the egg cannot survive past day 16 unless its been fertilised.
I nearly had myself TOTALLY convinced last month when I got to day 16....I was ready to sign up at anti-natal classes I was sooooooo sure I was gonna be a mumma!!! And then dreaded AF arrived and it was back to square one.........and the tears began to flow.
I'm excited about this time next week when day 14 is almost nigh, but at the same time am treading with fear as my hormones shoot through the roof and I begin to have terrible mood swings/feel like the world is against me/I'm never going to get preggers...etc etc
But the one GREAT thing is I don't feel so alone anymore - I have all you girls to sympathise with me!!!
Lets count down together Jezsika (PS I'd love to name my baby girl, if I am lucky enough to have a girl - ELLA)

I got the most amazing dose of indigestion half way through our grocery shop on Friday night! We'd stopped to grab something to eat first, and then half way around the supermarket ...whammo Al thought I was dying, standing in the aisle, clutching my chest, and I spent the rest of the way around the supermarket with the heels of my hands pressed *hard* between my boobs trying to stop the pain! Bleh.
My 2WW has been and gone ...we're in overtime. Dammit.

Do you know ...the oddest thing is that I have managed *not* to test. Deep down, I think I'm terrified. The thought that was running through my head before I went to sleep last night was 'Just one more day. Please let me hope for just one more day.' Obviously, I'll be attempting to strike the same bargain tonight ...
I'm also thinking that I'm going to have to temp next cycle because if AF is just late, I'm not sure when I'll ovulate next cycle.
What's going on at work mellybelly??

Well the person above me at work has just resigned, leaving me the only 'specialist' support person! It could turn out a couple of ways
1. They promote me - which is what i'm hoping for, although a comment that has been heard from the MD is 'what if she gets pregnant!' this can't and should not prevent me from being promoted and they know that.
2. They don't promote me and hire someone from outside the company, causing me to resign...!
So a little turbelent at work....but am fairly confident (95%) that they'll promote me into that role, I have a fair amount of support around the office for it, and i'm pretty much doing it now anyways...

They aren't allowed to discriminate against you on the basis of possibly pregnancy - it would be foolish of them too as you would be able to slide straight into the role. They're at no disadvantage, other than they would need to replace you if (when!) you leave - which is no different to what they would do now, if they didn't employ you (does that make sense??)
All the best!!!

I think that's probably extremely normal Jess, and something that you will not help yourself worrying about because you love your wee girl.
I felt horrendous when I got our second dog! I felt really guilty about how the dog we already had would feel, and how he would adjust ...and before I got our first dog, I worried over how the cat would feel about the dog! It's perfectly natural to worry about our 'babies' (my fur ones, and your peoper one!).
The thing is that Ella will adjust quickly, and you just involve her in the new baby - it won't take long, especially at her age, to forget what life was like before her sibling was on the scene.

Hey Ladies,
I'm trying to ignore everything this month, but failing miserably. This waiting is killing me! I am 9 DPO now, but I'm not actually charting so that could actually be plus or minus a day or two. Luckily I have a very regular cycle.
I don't feel at all pregnant, so I am trying not to get my hopes up. I didn't feel pregnant last time either (up go those hopes!!) but that one ended in miscarriage (down, hopes, down!!), so I really do feel in turmoil. Silly what we do to ourselves!
Nice to see I am not abnormal though.
I had a bit of an embarrassing question that I wasn't going to ask either, but from what I've seen here the last few days, I thought, heck, why not?? Does anyone ever feel EXTREMELY horny around ovulation? I did this month, which is a bit abnormal for me cos I don't have a massively high libido. But for about two days around Ovulation, I honestly couldn't think of anything else! This is the first time it's been like this since my miscarriage, so it's another thing getting my hopes up all over again.
This is too complicated! And it shouldn't be!

It is a natural thing to get horney Laurie, and it is more common in women that have been pregnant before, kind of like an animal instinct so basically your body is doing what it should!
And welcome to Oh Baby (are you the same Laurie from NZWP a few years back?)

Yeah, I thought that might be the case. It just doesn't usually happen, so I was wondering if my body has just been getting back to normal after the MC. I hope so!
Yep, same Laurie from NZWP. It's our 3rd anniversary tomorrow, which is cool. Have kind of missed message boards since then!! :o)

Date Posted: 30 January 2007 at 6:29pm
congrats on the 3rd anniversary Laurie!
Your body can take quite awhile to settle back down to "normal" after a miscarriage, sounds to me like it has, and i wish you (and all the others in their 2WW) the best of luck for this month

hehe Ellen that is so exciting! But it would be nice to get a BFP when he's there.
Laurie the horniness is normal Something to do with the hormones, and procreation instinct that SarahBeth referred to. How long ago was your m/c and at what gestation, if you don't mind me asking?
Kazzle you did a typo and when I first read what you wrote, I thought it said "lots of bding for the four of us" uh-ohhhhh

Hi Busymum,
My miscarriage was a missed miscarriage at 9 weeks, but the scan showed a sac of only 6 weeks. It was a complete natural miscarriage that was almost painless and not that much more bleeding than a heavy weeklong period. I didn't have to have a D&C, which I was pleased about.
That was back in early September. Do you think that makes a difference?

Well, well, well......here I am at 10PDO....tomorrow will be day 11 and I'm hanging in there by a thread.
I'm now checking my temperature a couple times a day which I've never bothered to do before. Hoping I can put myself out of my misery quicker if I see my temp has dropped (instead of waiting till the next morning). I sure don't feel pregnant and have TONS of PMT and have pretty much managed to convince myself I'm not preg this month, but the wait is still killing me!!!
I actually lay in bed last night and almost cried myself to sleep. Why is TTC such an emotional roller-coaster? I've never had such strong feelings of anger/frustration/resentment/disapointment/misery all at the same time. I fell like such a failure.......waiting is the pits. I just wish AF would arrive and I could sob/cry/scream and get it all out in the open and begin to focus on the next attempt..........

Since you're relatively new Salifer, you probably haven't come across the ginger's plan to survive TTC
So here goes ...
(and remember - this has kept me sane (sort of) for 21 cycles!)
Treat yourself. Do it every day. It's a little something that makes your days brighter and gives you something to look forward to. My current 'thing' is every couple of days, in the morning, on my way to work, I stop and get a coffee at a fab little cafe in Onehunga called Luscious. And, about once a week I stop and buy a bag of their mini melting moments, which are absolutely *divine*, and I have one in the evening before bed.
Give yourself something to look forward to every month - something which will distract you from AF if/when it arrives, gives you something positive to focus on, and just helps get you through the day(s). I tend to book a hair cut or get my eyebrows tinted and shaped, or plan to go and buy myself something new for my wardrobe, or a new book or something. Just something you love, and which will help you get through.
Also, if you figure you can't afford to do something nice for yourself - just remember, that if AF has arrived, you have another month to save for baby, and so you *can* do something nice for yourself!

Hey ladies i have done some thinking and i am gonna have to talk to my GP i cannot survive anything at the moment when im not on my PND meds. I dont know if its such an awesome idea TTC with my PND or even when taking the meds. I havent taken them the past few days and thought i was doing well but then i had a melt down last night and found it really hard.
Will have to update when i get bak from the drs. Shes lovely so should open up some insight for me. I wonder if she can draw blood and find out if i am pregnant this early.

Im CD5! Last day yay!
I was hoping that last month would be the month, and now I am really confident that this month will be the month. hehehe
I actually think that last month was the first month I actually ovulated since coming off the pill in July last year. I have heard that it can take 6 months or so to get back to normal. I am not listening to the stories that you can be more fertile after just coming off the pill cos that makes me want to go back on it....makes no sense at all, I know....but ttc brains don't nessesarily need to make sense...just whatever gets you through the next month aye!
Good luck to those that are waiting to hear the results of this month.

All the best Jess - you have to do what is right for you, DH and ELLA, and if the timing of TTC is going to unhinge you and impinge on your quality fo life, that's a tough call to make.
DId you wean yourself off over a couple of months, or cold turkey it? Cold turkey makes it really hard and then you are super prone to taking a head first dive into the 'dark zone'.
Take care and all the very best!!
Oh, and the ladies were talking the other day about ADs you can take while pg - perhaps you could talk to your Dr about different meds?
Anyway! Thinking of you, adn you know that whatever support you need, we're here for you

Thanks to all the positive thoughts. I've just started a new position at work and you know what I think fate lead me to it so I could keep distracted for 8 hours of the day!!! Its the nights that drag on and send my brain into orbit!!! I start having silly thoughts that get me down.
Thanks for the advice Ginger, my girlfriend told me the same and I'm just slack at giving myself the treats I need. Have a haircut booked for Sat (but well overdue anyway) so must think of a few more things to distract/pamper myself with.
I truely take my hat off to you Ginger (being on cycle 21ish) and anyone else who's in a similar situation.....I really can't complain about how long we've been trying......guess I'm such an over achiever, just can't deal with the fact that I havn't succeeded with a BFP - just thought it would happen in a heartbeat.
I do feel I've learned from the last two months of MAJOR disappointment (the months before that didn't seem as bad as the last two) so feel I've come a long way since then. Still hard to deal with but I'm maturing.....!!!
Might have to be a daily treat of........CARAMEL SLICE to keep me on the up & UP!!

Salifer, I completely understand what you mean. I feel completely irrational at times - I know I am young and have a heap of time up my sleeves, but I am impatient and don't like the thought that there might be something wrong with me.
Recently I have had a lot of friends and colleagues become pregnant (and often very easily) and while I am happy and excited for them, there is a secret part of me that is completely gutted. :o(
Fingers crossed for us though!! JD, I share similar thoughts as you... I have this positive feeling that things are going to work out in the next couple of months. At least it stops me getting too sad, so I guess it's a good thing to keep planning for best case scenario!
Jezsika, good luck with your PND. It sounds like you're doing the right thing, even if it means putting off your next wee bubba. And thanks for being supportive, from what I've seen around here you always are! You too Ginger! It's so nice having like minded people to chat with.

I just thought of something else strange I've noticed since my MC. I used to have heavy, long and painful periods but after the MC they became light and only 1 - 2 days long. While I am not complaining, I worry that it might mean that I am not ovulating or something.
I've heard they can change but of course I keep thinking the worst.

Laurie you'll need to chart to confirm that. My AF after was very very heavy and went for 2 weeks but Doc said that was just a 'clean out'... so don't now about them changing.

Worked out that today is 13DPO, not 12DPO. Which kind of explains why I am bowing out of the big 2WW this month.
GUTTED!! Damn, poos, anger, tears, frustration. Aurghhhhh, grrr, eek!
So, you can put me now on CD1. :o(

Im out!!
Another 6 months and we will look at it again and most likely go and see a specialist. I had a very short luetal phase and a screwy cycle so we will have to see

I'm on 14DPO and my temp was the lowest in 14 days so I'm beginning to think AF is on her way. But there is always tommorrow and who knows what that may bring.
Will be testing Sunday (same as nictoddie) if my temp is still above my coverline, otherwise if its under I won't bother....>AF will be just around the corner.
Any updates from Mellybelly?
Laurie - I feel for you hun, thinking of you and sending loads of hugs and sympathy. Wish I could be there for you for a shoulder to cry on.
Jezika - 10DPO
Salifer - 14DPO
MellyBelly - 14DPO
nictoddie - 15DPO

Awwww Jezika that sux, wish we could catch up for a coffee and swap frustrations....... I thought I would have been out this morning too, convinced myself of it last night as I cried myself to sleep (yet again for the second time this week) but temp hadn't quite dropped enough to bring on AF...........but could happen..........I'm hanging on by a thread.......
Salifer - 14DPO
MellyBelly - 14DPO
nictoddie - 15DPO

Yeah I am now out - AF arrived late last night.
CD 1 for me....
Oh well only 6 weeks till we see our specialist again, am feeling better than i was about it all a few days ago (some of you will know what i mean, if you read my other posts...)

Laurie,
When i m/c in June last year, my first AF was very light and only lasted a couple of days, my second however was a bit different - lasted about 5-6 days and the 2nd day was the heaviest bleeding i had ever encountered. All calmed down after that and now after Endo surgery AF is 6 days long and mid-light.
I am sure everybody reacts differently to m/c but thought you might like to know how it was for me - doesn't shed much light though for you sorry...

And then there were 2........
Salifer - 14DPO
nictoddie - 15DPO
Will be waiting with anticipation NICTODDIE.....have you done a home pregnancy test yet? I'm holding off till Sun morning.......

Hmmm, a little confusing for me. Spotting yesterday morning and then completely disappeared again. Not feeling any AF "feelings" yet either. I only ever have a 30 day cycle, and this is supposed to be CD1... So I caved and did a test.... BFN.
Good luck Salifer and Nictoddie... one of us has to get lucky this month!!

Ew! Blah!
I never understood why *anyone* would ruin good chocolate with fruit ...
I'm thinking of everyone and hoping for the best!

Murphy is taunting me.... not more than 1 hour after testing, AF arrives with a vengeance. Oh well, serves me right for being impatient I guess. Definately out now!!
Ginger, can you do nuts in chocolate? In Aus, Cadbury makes chocolate with Macadamia nuts all the way through it. I have my best friend send me over regular supplies as it is my favourite. It's the BEST comfort food!

Oh my goodness........its a BFP!!!
I'm in shock.....can't believe it......I've waited so long for this moment and now its here......woke at 2:30 this morning feeling seriously ill.....DH had to get me some ENO's...to settle the stomach....slept through till 7am for normal temp checking time......checked temp....still high.....so did my one and only test and hello BFP!!!!!!
Thank you all so so much for all your support the last few days. I honestly didn't think I'd make it to Sunday and still be sane!!!
Your thoughts and magic baby dust sent my way worked...thank-you..thank-you..thank-you..thank-you.....off to doctor tomorrow for blood test to confirm......will post again soon with an update.
To all those out there still in the race, I really hope my news isn't too bitter-sweet for you. I hope its the gleaming light in the dark tunnel to show you that there is an end to the waiting.
NikkiB - looks like we'll be twins, I should be due around Oct 11th...........

Congratulations Salifer! I have been following this closely, so it's great to hear you've had a BFP.
Can I start a new round of the 2WW on this thread? I'm currently 4DPO

Not sure Kazzle, sorry
Well I had a faint BFP yesterday and today went and had bloods today will find out results tomorrow arvo, I'm sure that it is a BFP fingers crossed.

Wow that is excellent news!
Kazzle it's a hormone change...oestrogen I think. It is closely linked to your ovulation (up)/AF (down) cycle.
