    ((Hugs)) Skintchick for angel baby's due date! I understand how hard it must be - I actually came on to post similar crappy stuff happening. I don't know if it is any comfort but a couple of things my mum and auntie said to me helped me a little. Angel babies come and visit us to prepare our bodies for the journeys ahead. Their (and our) bodies are mere vessels in which to carry their spirits. Your angel baby will come back to you again in a body more prepared for this world, so its not goodbye, just see you soon xXx

    I had a mc in February and my due date would have been 19th October. A woman at work is pg and her due date is 20th October. I am pleased for her but everytime she mentions her milestones (like she is excited because in a couple of weeks she can find out if she is having a girl or boy) its like a kick in the stomache because I should be experiencing that too. I visited the church we got married in on our wedding anniversary and lit a candle for our angel baby, which was lovely but also made me teary.

    Hope everyone else is having a better weekend!

    QQ, so exciting! I will be keeping everything crossed for you!

    Good morning ladies (and gentleman) hope you are well this morning?

    Tink, are you okay? hope your teeth are not too sore?

    Lilymay, congrats on the job for your OH and your pma, hope this is a great cycle for you :-)

    TeamLowe, sounds promising, glad the metaformin is working for you, will it help with ov? hope your mum just wants to see you for something nice

    QQ, 6 days is not too long at all :-) are you getting excited now?
    Can you put me on the list as CD7 please? I'm counting CD1 as the heaviest day of bleeding for mc, not sure if that's right or not but we'll see!

    (((Hugs))) for Skintchick and Walby and lilymay, its so hard for anniversaries, hope you can find some peace SC, I dont know if it helps but I like to think that my babies are together somewhere somehow looking after each other, it helps me make sense of this happening twice. Hope your appointment at the clinic goes well, I'd book it now too - you can always cancel it closer to the time

    tea lover - oooh kittens! do you have any pictures?

    QQ - I didn't know grapefruit wasn't great for implantation and I've been eating it every day for Breakfast thinking I've been healthy!

    I'm a CBFM user but no joy yet! I do find it very simple and easy to use though and as a once a week couple it does help us DTD at the right time.

    Massive hugs to those who need them.

    Just watching the military parade on tv - it's pretty impressive and I'm getting all proud and teary cos I'm very proud of my brother who is actually flying in the fly past!!

    I use the Clearblue digital ovulation tests now. Gives me a nice smiley face when ov'ing, or at least when I get the LH surge. And it's consistently on CD11-12, so I am lucky to be pretty sure when I am ov'ing.

    I like the certainty, although it takes a bl00dy long time to come up with a decision. Makes me think I was probably not waiting enough when I was using IC's.

    I'll try acupuncture, just to see what it is like. I know it has years of history and all, but is just seems so unlikely to work!! Such a strange concept, and yet somehow I am fully willing to believe in reflexology - which I love. I did pick up a leaflet today, and I'll give them a call and give it a go.

    Hmm will look into those CB digital ovulation tests too, anythings better than the ICs atm!

    Acupuncture is a strange concept, but Ive heard lots of anecdotal stories about how its worked for people. Well Ive had 2 sessions so far, last week the acupuncturist treated me for my runny nose, which Ive had all my life - I get it when I get warmed up or cold, :rotfl: and since that session my nose has not run once! Its amazing the things you get used to, and then when you don't have it anymore you really notice its absence (in a good way!)

    She was also obv treating me for fertility, stimulating ovulation, and my cycle has been really weird this month, not sure what to make of it! FF is telling me I ovulated on Wed, but my bbt temps are quite low and Ive had serious EWCM, including this morning which would put ovulation as really late for me. It def wasn't BD leftovers, it was clear and very stretchy!

    Can anyone have a look at my chart and tell me what they think? Also, my temps last cycle post ov was 36.6ish, now its 36.3/2??

    Its really low - so opinions anyone? Have I ov or not? OPKs dont work for me, though I did get a very faint line on wed am which went away in the pm..

    zcrat41 you're right, it's very impressive, got goosebumps and tears in my eyes watching..... You must be so proud of your brother. Thinking of everyone who has friends and family in the forces, they do such an amazing job.

    Hugs to all of you who really shouldn't be here on this board, I loved the comment about the angels coming back in another body....

    I'm 3dpo now and (sorry if tmi) just been to loo and there was a small amount of bright red blood, just when I wiped. Any ideas what this could be? I do have a slight bout of cystitis at the mo, but not noticed blood before when I've had it....
  • Hello,

    I pop in and out of these Forums as I have been having a bumpy ride and tried putting TTC out of my mind for awhile, so I will start with alittle but about me:

    Me and my husband have been TTC since July 2010, I came of the pill in June, but I have not had a period since. In February my doctor put me on Provera and I had a period (very light) then nothing..

    Yesterday I had a scan of my ovaries, I have mild PSO. So my doc has decided to put me on Provera again and then start on Clomid.

    My husband also has slow sperm, so I have got him some vitamins to try and get them moving?

    Is anyone else in a similar position as me? I feel on a high again, that things might happen, I have been throwing my self into work trying to forget about kids, but it doesn't help that one of the kids I teach is expecting as well as another teacher in my department! :mad: Both of which weren't even trying!

    walby, (((hugs))) for having a colleague with the similar due date as your mc baby:(
    lemonmelon, yes I'm getting excited:j
    I know that my hormones may still be not good enough, or that my frozen eggy may disintegrate on defrosting, or just get bfn or mc, but I'm excited nevertheless:p
    zcrat, anything in moderation is fine, even grapefruit:o
    :cool: for having a pilot brother:T
    mogwai, your acupuncturist sounds great:cool:
    I've had two acupuncurist spanning several sessions each, but I didn't get any of those amazing cures:o

    As for your chart, I don't know:think: Either FF is right, or you may still be gearing up for ov.
    apple*pie, spotting at 3dpo sounds too early for implantation spotting, could be just one of those random things, or could be ov spotting? I don't know:o
    Hope your cystitis gets better (((hugs)))

    I love the idea that a mc baby will come back one of these days:)
    Mum always said I'm the baby she lost reincarnated:) I seem to have had a sex change though, as the baby mum lost was a boy:huh:

    Tinkwings, what's up?
