Hi ladies!!

Lets start things off as usual.... with an introduction/update!

My name is Joy
I am 28 (29 in about a week), and dh is 29
we've been together 10yrs
Got married and bought a house together in 2009
From Canada
I'm currently a housewife, but hope to soon be a stay at home mom

I got pg back in the summer of 2010 then m/c'd at 8 weeks
We ttc for 8 cycles after the m/c, (10 months)
We have a nursery room all set up waiting for baby

I got a BFP on June 30th 2011
Had a missed m/c on Aug 18th 2011
Since then I have been rushed to the hospital 3 times for excessive bleeding (once via ambulance cause I passed out)
I have had 2 emergency D&C's, 2 Folley Ballooons, 3 blood transfusions of 2 bags each, & a Hysteroscopey. (Not to be confused with a "HysterECTAMY")

I Finally got back to TTC in Jan/Feb 2012 and on March 21st I got my BFP!
I am currently almost 11 weeks pregnant!
My first ob/gyn apt was Wed April 4th 2012
He put me on progestrone and asked to see me in 2 weeks
My next apts were April 19th 2012 & May 3rd
At our May 3rd apt (at 9 weeks5 days) we heard the best sound ever - our little one's heartbeat!!
We're going for our 1st non-diagnostic u/s on May 15th!
My due date is Dec 1st 2012!

This is truly an amazing group of ladies & I really hope our string of luck (& bfps) continues!! ladies!

xx
Joy

Krunchie, good luck at your appointment!

Jessica, It's been I've been off BCP's for over three years now! I am so read for this TTC bulls*it to be over with!!! I second the being ready to have ups from here on out!

Joy, I love slurpees! And I love re-arranging! LOL How exciting being able to announce your pregnancy to the world! I can't wait for the day I can do that! Hope you had a good day!

Betsy, Yay for being cancer free! That must be a great thing to be able to say! I am sorry to hear about your hubby's cat. I can't imagine the day one of our fur-babies "goes to college"!

Well that's as far back as it will allow me to scroll. I hope I didn't miss commenting on anything major!!

AFM, I go for my BW on wednesday to check if the iui worked. Not feeling positive at all again. I took two tests this morning, an 10mul internet cheapie and a "baby test" dollar one. Both seriously negative. Ugh! I don't know how many more cycles of this I can do! I really don't want to do another one right away but we are doing different meds for the next one and I already have them in my house. So part of me just wants to get it out of the way because I already have the meds in my possession. Oh well, I guess I can't say I am not pregnant until I get the results of the BW back. But I will be extremely surprised if they are positive!

Well now that my rant is out there, Tgo all the lucky 's out there!

So I was looking through the HGT gallery at the 10 mlu tests posted and almost NONE of them have ever shown positive! I am so pissed I wasted my money on those pieces of crap! I am so done with them! They will be my sticks to pee on when I do finally get pregnant. Just to see the line. Not to determine initially if I am pregnant!

Hi ladies!

Bumble - I totally agree, the internet cheapies are kinda crap... I got a bfp on a frer before I got one on the ic's! 10mlu my ass...
LoL, I love rearranging too but it's not as much fun when i cant really do much of anything! Usually I can help lift etc, but now we have to wait for my BIL to come over and help us out one day
for some positive results from your bloodwork!!

Katie - Yay!! 2 More Days!

Jess - Glad af is finally heading out... hopefully you and Katie being cycle twins will be lucky!

Brittany - Good luck at your apt on Friday! Hope all goes well!!

AFM - Nothing new.. didnt get my slurpee it was too cold and rainy out, so we got sour candies instead The dogs throughly enjoyed their walk.. as for me, I'm exhausted!! Time to watch a movie with my hubby and go to bed! Cant wait for my apt tomorrow, hope we get to hear our little peanuts heartbeat again!!

xx Joy

ok wow did i miss alot!!!! so congrats to all who got their bfps, fingers crossed for those in the tww and pitter patter get at her for those about to ovulate. i think that just about covers it.

afm i had a nice weekend loafing on the couch and just watching nip/tuck for hrs on end, i cannot remember the last time i did nothing and just chilled all weekend. i think im on 8 dpo today but af will show up soon i already feel her coming, whch sucks, i thought if i nailed all 3 days close to and o day i would sure get pg, but guess not. im really not as obessed as i as before which is nice i must say. i did make an app with my r.e. for june 6th and am taking time off of work for it, its time to get serious again about this and find a solution to the pain beit conceiving or meds, im just tired of the pain all the time. i am not on here as much and am sorry but right now i just don't feel the need and it still stings abit when i see someone else gets a bfp, so i update when need be.. and last but not least to all the new girls your gonna love it here.

Hello to all the ladies out there!

Had a crazy couple of weeks, no time to post but reading along when I can. Way too behind to comment on everyone's posts so I will just congratulate the bfps this month, and send baby dust to everyone trying!

I am 10 dpo / cd 27 and the evil witch is due to appear on Saturday. For thepast few days I have had mild heartburn in the morning, and this afternoon I've had a headache and feel queasy. Had some brown spotting that was light and only lasted a few hours, fx it's ib and not af!

Hi ladies!

Lindsay - for you!!

Kristine - sweetie! I really hope your bfp comes soon and you dont have to wait too long! You so deserve to get your bfp & your sticky bean! I think all of us understand the pain that comes with seeing pregnant women or women getting their bfps... so no one is gonna be offended if you are not on as much! If you want to completely skip over my posts I would not take offence, I know how difficult things are for you, and I want you to do whatever you need to do to be happy. Sending lots of love, baby dust & stick vibes!

AFM - Apt this am was great, doc found the heartbeat almost instantly!! And I am finally into a "normal" apt time frame... at first I was going every 2 weeks, then every 3 weeks and now I have worked my way up to 4 weeks!! Only crappy part is now I have to wait another 4 weeks before hearing baby's heartbeat. He is also booking me an u/s in about 6 weeks... so I will be 18 weeks at that point. Sucks cause thats when we will be going for our non-diagnostic u/s to find out the gender, so we'll have 2 u/s like a week apart, but thats okay!

Not much else going on here... my friend is getting married this summer, so we printed off all her response cards and invitations this afternoon, and I am currently handwritting addresses on her invitation envelopes... at least all the jobs she has asked me to do involve sitting!

xx Joy

Joy, How awesome they found the HB so fast! I bet your so excited to find out what your little bean is!

Jackson, Hopefully the witch stays away for you!

aroma, I understand how you feel about all the BFP announcements. I have never had a MC but after three years of this crap, I feel like someone is stabbing a voodoo doll of myself for an evil joke each time some else gets pregnant and not me! I am not saying I am not happy for those who get that golden BFP but when the eff is it going to be my turn?

AFM, I am convinced my second IUI cycle was a bust also. Another waste of time going to get blood drawn tomorrow! But conveniently I think I am going to need to get some serious dental work done so I am fighting with myself as to whether or not "try" for this next cycle. Even though I know I am not pregnant right now, I can't bring myself to take ibuprofen and tylenol just doesn't cut my tooth pain like my 800 mg ibu's!

Hi Ladies. Wow. I've missed so much...

Congrats to all the !!! I love how much luck these threads bring! Sometimes it's nice to have someone to share our journey and real struggles with.

So sorry I've been out of the loop for about 5 days. I've been busy and caught up in other things...it's been rather nice, actually. I haven't been stressing about TTC stuff and enjoyed time to myself...lots of reading, cleaning, sleeping, relaxing, friend time. No stress, whatsoever.

I can't possibly go back through all of the posts I've missed. But I'll keep up from now on

AFM, I think I am CD10? Ovulating this weekend maybe? I'd need to post then see what my ticker says, lol. AF 'ended' last Thursday...but continued to spot until Saturday...a whole week of a cycle, with spotting the day before. I'm DEF back to normal..this is what I did every month for 7 years before I went on the pill. I'm convinced it's out of me now, and I'm back to regular. I know there are differing opinions regarding if it can take a while to get out of your system. I didn't think much of it until my periods started reverting back to their old ways.

to everyone in their TWW and waiting to O!!!! again to everyone with their BFPS!!

Ladies, stay positive! I know some of you have been trying for years and years, and I can only imagine how hard it would be being in that position. We're here to encourage each other when the going gets tough...and I see it's becoming tough for some. Just know I'm thinking of you everyday, and I'm here for you...as much as I can be on the internet. I hate that you are hurting and aching. Praying you find your BFPs soon - chin up - there are so many important pieces to who you are as a person to love, more than just as a mother. Smile!

Talk soon!

Hi ladies. I just got done applying for a bunch of jobs. Hopefully one of them calls me back. I'm having a hard time finding a job that doesn't stress me out to the point of getting sick! I just realized how badly I need money tonight. Df is starving and the only reason I'm not is because Ive been staying with my parents. I just wanna cry.

I know that's why I haven't gotten pregnant yet. We can't afford it at this time. But no time is going to be perfect. We just have to make it work. I know it'd be fine when the baby is here. We'll be a lot more well off by the time the baby is here. I just wish it would happen.

I'm just so frustrated I have steam pouring out of my ears.

On top of all that I'm still blinking spotting!! I should have been done two days ago!
