  • Congratulations Firebird, fingers crossed for a happy and healthy pregnancy :j

    Thanks for delurking and sharing your story ThinkPink, you've made me feel a little better but I know deep down, I can't put off TTC because of the past and the dates that things may happen, there will never be a 'worse' time really as nothing else matters when you go through something so awful. Christmas is just one day after all.

    I'm doing well on my SW diet and keeping busy. Note to you all though, don't go to IKEA, full of bloody pregnant people everywhere you turn (no offence to those pregnant at the moment on here - you know I love you guys :D)

    Congrats firebird!!

    Sorry everyone just wrote a massive moan about sil and realised it was probably quite outing. So deleted it. Basically just had baby stuff rubbed in my face excessively from sil and mil and finding it hard as I felt like I had made a real effort to show interest so feel like the sensitivity isn't being reciprocated. If I for example got a new job at the same time as someone being made redundant I wouldn't rub my new job in thier face.

    Hope everyone else's is doing ok!!
  • Does SIL know your situation A0503? If she does then it is insensitive in the extreme, and I would try and reduce contact as far as possible. If not, it still seems excessive on her part. Can you maybe get your OH to have a word (presuming they are on his side?).

    Thanks everyone - feel like it ought to do another test just for confirmation (can't quite believe it) and then I'll move up to the other board. Here's hoping that lots more of you will be doing the same shortly, fx for sticky beans all round.

    when She baby bombed us I cried and told them about how long we'd been trying and that wasn't that long ago and I was so annoyed at myself for crying and felt awful for kind of ruining her announcement I made a point of saying don't act differently around me they've kind of taken that to the extreme. When we left last night OH said he's going to ask them to reign it in a bit.

    Good luck with with the next test, I am very sure it's going to be a positive one xx
  • Congrats firebird, I hope all goes well!

    Why oh why does OV day come on the day that my partner is on an overnight shift and I am busy decorating a refurbished house? Hence a swifty on a floor covered in dust sheets, sorry for the tmi but I can now giggle at the lengths we go through! I'm not wasting any chances after another round of Clomid!
    Thing is I dont feel like I've ov'd, so I must arrange to get referred to the gynae!

    I'm booking us for a private consultation though as the cost comes with getting all the tests done again which I'd have to wait quite a while for on the NHS. It goes against all my principles to use private health care but sometimes you have to compromise your principles. :o

    Slinky that's so typical, my ov usually happens when we've got guests staying over or one of us is away for the weekend :mad:

    A0503 that's very insensitive in my book, especially when they're aware how upset you are.

    Still no sign of ov, don't think it's going to happen this month at all. I'm so disappointed, my cycle had improved so much & I was oving again, it feels like I've gone back to square one since we got the news about dh sperm issues. I'm presuming it's down to stress, I'm still sticking to the fertility diet, supplements & acupuncture. Tbh, I don't really know how to reduce my stress levels as I'm already doing all the things that usually help me unwind (healthy eating, exercise, yoga, meditation,acupuncture). I'd planned on doing a few small jobs around the house to try to take my mind off things but it would involve a trip to ikea, and after reading Rachy's post that might not be too good an idea for me atm lol.

    Sorry for the woe is me post, I just feel at a real loss & I'm not sure what I should do next.

    Back from a lovely holiday, to be honest not looking forward to work tomorrow. We did lots of BD'ing so fingers crossed but who knows, I actually have no strong feel either way to what will happen this month. Fingers crossed for seeing a BFP Otherwise we are heading on to month 12....
