baby talk at work shouldn't be allowed around the LTTTC

Clomid effects seem to have worn off now

How is everyone?

is definitly here...no more spotting its the real deal , but I'm trying to stay positive about it. I know its all in Gods timing. Last month I said I was going to focus on working out more and I didnt stick to it so guess I'll try to focus on that. I dont drink but I'm ready to have one or two!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to all for being so encouraging!!!!

@TSIMMONS - I'm sorry to hear it wasn't your lucky month but it's ok because you now have to spend another month with us ladies that are all stuck in the same situation...lucky us huh! :) It's ok to cry about it too because we all have emotions about this and then wonder what we might have done wrong for it not to happen. I too look in the toilet more often than I ever have in my life in the last 6 months lol. Who does that?? HA..anyway, we are all a little crazy sometimes but we have good intentions so just know it's ok to cry by yourself when it doesn't happen. :) Just think they will be tears of joy when we finally see those beautiful pink lines. You have kept me going this month and you help us stay optimistic and none of us can do this without support so we are here for you! :)
I think working out is a great outlet and I'm actually thinking of joining a gym myself. I hear rock hard abs are VERY good to have when you get pregnant. :) Chin up TSIMMONS! :)

@TSIMMONS so sorry! Last week I was exactly there! But here is to positive Sept tests!

@mrsaskew11... Thanks soo much for being encouraging!! I manged not to cry today but I almost did at work especially since people are constantly asking me "are you pregnant yet".. ... I want to say STOP asking when I get pregnant I PROMISE the world will know. LOL

@BGGirl.. thank you as well. I am looking forward to the pink lines.

Is anyone doing anything new this month? I am trying to decide if we should do IUI and Clomid again but I dont like how the Clomid makes me feel and my DH hates the semen in a cup ordeal..ROFLMBO but I dont blame him.

I am going to try the pre-seed this month. :) oh and a new puppy to take my mind off of stressing about it.

hey ladies
sorry i didnt reply earlier but i didnt tick the box to get updates and couldnt find the thread till now!!

sadly i wont be getting a Sept BFP as I have to wait for two bleeds before my frozen egg transfer, which means early October :0(

but had one bleed already! a week early but all is ok, just hope this cycle is short too!!

anyone any suggestions on improving the uterine lining? dont have to worry about cervix or environment for sperm as that is all taken care of for me this time ;0) but want to make sure my lining is nice and thick so it implants without any worries. Have been researching but not finding much other than a protein/iron rich diet (which makes sense).

might be taking drugs to help anyway (will find out closer to the day) but want to do what i can to help too.

Tsimmons, i hear your pain! like you wont tell people when you do get pregnant!

Hello Ladies,
TGIF!!!! and it's a long weekend!

TSIMMONS- I totally agree about the questions, it is so annoying... but in all honesty, before ttc I asked people all the time. I don't think people get it sometimes, especially if they haven't tried or if they have "oopsy" kids.

BGGirl- I actully do your pajama nightie trick too... but since my cycles are irregular, i wear them 2 weeks out of the month. I think they've lost their novelty.

Krunchie- I've heard baby asprin is good for the uterine wall/lining. I will be trying it this month.

On another note... I just found out my 3rd friend is due in March. I am so happy for them, however, it makes me sad. Had I not miscarried, I would be having a March baby too. I'm allowing myself 1hour to pout. Then I have to shake it off.

Hello Ladies! I felt compelled to join in with all of you. Here's my story. My first pregnancy ended at 12 weeks and ended up getting a d&c. We were absolutely devastated and all that was on my mind after the loss was to have another baby. I lost the baby January 2009. I ended up getting pregnant in April and had a successful pregnancy and healthy daughter January 2010. I got on depo right after that - HUGE mistake. I bled for 3 months straight and then no period! I quit the depo November 2010 and didn't get my first period since before I had my daughter until January 2012. I ended up getting pregnant in April only to lose that baby after 5 1/2 weeks. I didn't believe it would happen to me again. I passed this baby naturally. Well, to our amazement I got pregnant 2 weeks after I lost baby #2! I was completely shocked. Unfortunately, I lost baby #3 after 9 weeks. So here I am trying again. I got my first period after the d&c (in June) in July. Didn't get pregnant in August so I am hoping and praying it happens in September. It feels like this should be someone else's story and not mine. =( But it is mine. I love my daughter with all I have and I know that she is my miracle baby. I know there are a lot of women that don't have 1 child and for that I have to be extremely grateful.
I really want another child though. I want my daughter to at least have one sibling. Baby Dust to all you! I hope that we ALL have BFP's in September!!!

My pouting session has ended... and I feel back to my optimistic self.

Emmy- I am so sorry for your difficult journey. I have had one miscarriage and I'm still hurting from it... I cannot imagine having had 3 in a row. That seems like every one's nightmare. Has the doctor done any testing or been able to give you any insight as to why this is happening? Kudos for staying optimistic and never giving up. I will say a prayer for your second miracle baby.
