Well I'm not gonna disagree but. ....I'm hoping it got the job done though.

Storm - I've got my fingers crossed for you this month.

I started accupuncture this week in preparation for my next IVF cycle. I've never had it before but there is some research to say that it helps with fertility. It was really strange as I was stabbed with hundereds of little needles, placed under a heat lamp and left in a room alone. I must have fallen asleep quite quickly though as I was woken up 90 mins later.

Hej again!

Hope you are all doing well.
Im excited for your ivf Coco. All the best of luck !

Ad Prima... How many stories i have Heard about one getting pregnant finally when not trying :) i Hope you managed to just have some easy calm time enjoying yourself.

Storm.. Hopefully this is your cycle too :)

I like to come in here and check on my old mates, much nicer board than this babycenter hahahah... How many evil ladies are out there... I feel like you can find at least a Lot of them out there on babycenter.com

As for me.. Im going in for my 12 week Scan tonorrow. Started to feel slightly better, Little by Little and i Hope Everything goes well tomorrow for the CUB Scan. Its Always stressful, exciting and If Everything is fine super relieving. I Hope it Will be the Case

Hugs to you all.

Good morning ladies. A quick update I'm really excited. I'm 8 dpo and my boobs started tingling yesterday. There arent tender to the touch. Then today I had spotting. It was very little and red mixed with cm. Sorry tmi but I've never had these two symptoms and you ladies know I'm noy a symptom spotter as bad as most. So I'm feeling really confident.

Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Cocoa I'm hoping acupuncture does the trick, Idk that I could relax like you did under those circumstances

Kung-fu so glad Everything is progressing well.

Prima how's work and the travels going?

storm - UPDATE PLEASE. u must be 10dpo now!!!!!!!

kungfu - hi hi hi girl, so nice to hear from you. 1st trimester is almost over huh? time flies. can't wait for you to find out gender!!!! its the warmest fuzziest feeling, thinking abt your pregnancy.

cocoa - i tried acupuncture when i first started TTC this round. i honestly didnt enjoy it and i was dreading going every session. once my package was over i did not go back. it was painful.... i have a very low treshold and i felt it was stressing me out more than helping me conceive HAHA but i heard SOOO many stories about acupuncture being a very effective tool for IUI and IVF. ur session was 90 mins??!! thats intense!!!!! the things we do.... sigh

i am 100% sure AF is coming. started spotting yesterday and today AF cramps in full force. i am sure i will see red either today or tomorrow. i know my body so well.

have agreat weeekend ladies!

So far I've had tingly breast off and on still and not cramping like I normally would but I'm trying to not read into it. I'm so scared of being disappointed. I'm holding off until Sunday to test. At due Nov 2.

Prima I know that feeling and it sucks;sorry you hear.

Maybe it was all n my head smh cramping okay night and temp drop this AM. I don't know that I'll try again during the holidays or not. Waiting for AF

storm - sometimes i find measuring BBT isnt very accurate. maybe you slept with ur mouth a little open, or maybe the thermometer was not working well. i find it's really inconsistent.

the witch came for me yesterday, oh well.

I'd like to think that was the case but these cramps tell a more prevalent story. Sorry the wicked witch came. I'm sure I'm right behind ya!

Storm/ Prima That's really annoying - I wrote a big reply to you both last week but it must not have posted. I basically said:-

Prima - I hope AF doesn't show for you but have since seen that she did so I'm sorry and hope you're ok. Sending you a big hug.

Storm - Any update? I've got everything crossed for you.

AFM - I start IVF again on Monday and am so chilled out about it this time. My sister is going through her 3rd round at the moment and is the same. It's so strange, we're acting like its actually not happening this time.

I'm still doing the acupuncture and taking a cocktail of vitamins, eating healthily, exercising and trying not to let anything annoy me too much but otherwise I'm not really on the countdown or as anxious as I was to start last time. I do feel slightly frustrated as a lot of people I know who got pregnant at the same time when we started trying are now announcing they are pregnant AGAIN. I find it crazy how, over the same space of time, their situation started the same as ours (i.e. trying for a baby) and we are now worlds apart.

House renovations are nearly finished!!!! I'm very excited about this
