Lynn - February 14

Sandra....I am not even really depressed knowing this month was going to be a miracle. I have an RE appointment on Feb 24th to see if eggs are on left side. Yeah....1.5 pounds gone!!!!! Stephanie and Sandra will either of your OB's or RE's prescribe provara to induce a period? I took it twice when I did not ovulate and AF showed. Ask, you never know. Nicole, hope your dinner is good also. I am making dinner (low-fat) for hubby and I. Hope he likes it. Well....need to check on it. Talk to you girls later. Happy Valentine's Day!!!!!!!

 

Stephanie - February 15

Well she arrived....middle of the night God bless her....so I am feeling yucky today, but normal....39 day cycle.....LONG for me......have to start the charting again, will be a good 6 months before you can start to see an actual pattern of regularity or not.......girls day with my little ya ya was good....I have never had provera.....and I have never had anyone check to see my eggs either, I wonder why? I do I ask when I call? Lynn, is that something i should be checking?

 

nicole - February 15

i had provera. no side effects and my period came 2 days later

 

Kristie - February 16

Hey all sorry I'm checking in so late I had to go take my mamow to a funeral. I got back here Staurday and had to go to Alabama and take care of her. (yea another funeral) Ok MiKayla is due May 17th. Steph my face did the same thing as yours I swear every other day I had Mt. St. Helen or the North Star. The past few months my face has been clear. Lynn and Sandra way to go on the weight loss I know here in a few months I will be doing the same. My periods before I got pregnant sounds just like ya'lls they came when they wanted. I would go 20 days and sometimes I would go 50. It was really strange. My classes went I had some people want to book some off of that one so I may do a few more in the next few weeks. This weekend my cousin is coming over and we are going to paint the babys room. I am going to paint it pastel lavender. I am having my baby shower on March 19th so I have to go finish registering and get my invitations out in the next week too. Girls, YAYA sisters I can not wait for you all to experience this I am still praying for you every night. I know it's possible... Well I need to go finish supper I'll chat with ya'll later...

 

Lynn - February 16

Stephanie.....are you followed by an RE or an OB? I believe both will do it. When I was having issues getting pregnant, my old OB sent us to an RE. they are the ones who look to see which side eggs are on and how large. I take a "trigger" shot to induce ovulation when eggs are mature (anything above a 18 when measured). Seeing I am a classic PCOS, I do not have regular periods, do not ovulate on my own and etc......so that is why I am now at an RE. It never hurts to ask anything. Sandra.....how are you today? Kristie....nice to hear from you. Your little bundle of joy is due 5 days after I would have been due if ectopic would not have happened. I am glad to hear and make sure someone keeps us posted on you.

 

sandra - February 16

hi there. Stephanie - maybe your body just getting back to normal after everything and hopefully this cycle will be good. I still have nothing at all although I am sure AF will show very soon. I too have zits all over the place and thats usually a sign of AF for me. Hey Lynn, when do you weigh? Lets know how you get on. Kristie that is too bad about the funeral - glad you can stay positive though for babys sake. Not long to go now til May. Nicole how are you today? Will check on y'all later

 

Stephanie - February 16

Baby Shower on March 19....well, now that is one I wouldn't mind going to....keep us in mind that day Kristie, we will be having one right along with you in our hearts....May 17 can't come soon enough, I am longing to see little MiKayla's precious face.......you MUST send us a pic.......I see an OB, never been to an RE, will have to look into that......AF has been an awful one, crampy, bloated, just yucky feeling......I am glad to know Kristie had screwed up periods just like all of us...HOPE right there.....I hope you are right about my body getting back to normal, seems like it has been so long since it has been, seeing as how I have been ttc for past 2 and half years and had three mcs....ruff stuff.......gotta go...be back when I can.....YA YA

 

nicole - February 16

hey there. a big ice storm came through here. work and schools closed down today.

 

Kristie - February 16

I found it really strange when I would have my period sometimes every 3 weeks and sometimes every 6 weeks. But see I never got pregnant I never had a miscarriage because I couldn't get pregnant. I met a lady in the store the other day and her daughter is 40 years old and has been going through what we have been through, she has 1 ovary and tube and she has been pregnant a few times but never carried to term. She was going to a fertility specialist too. She got pregnant for twins and lost them when she was 5 months preg. Her name is Angela and I told her mother I would pray for her. Her mom works at a store down the road from here the next time I go in there I am going to give her this web-site so she can come read some of our stories. I only have a few minutes right now I will check back with ya'll later. I have to go pick up Paige from softball practice.

 

Lynn - February 17

Kristie...I am sure we all can say a prayer for Angela. I passed this website onto a girl I work with. She has visited it a couple times and said it helps. I find piece talking with you all whole have had the same issues as me. Stephanie...you could easily begin seeing an RE. They like to see people after they have been trying for at least a year. Ask your OB for some names and call. They keep much closer tabs on you and also give different meds to help situations (like prometrium to help maintain a pregnancy) and meds to induce a period and etc. They will only keep you until you are beteen 8weeks-12weeks and then release you back to your OB. I find piece with my RE and they check to see where your eggs are and all that. Sandra....I weigh in at 6:15pm eastern standard time. I think you are 5 hours ahead of me so maybe 11:15pm your time. I lost 0.6 pounds so that is a full 20 pounds off me. I stopped at a friends house after weighing and both her and her husband said, "wow....you have really lost some weight." I felt kind of good knowing someone can notice. Thanks for the support girls. Nicole.....no offense but you can keep the ice and snow. I am so not wanting to see any this year. We had some flurries a couple of weeks ago but that is all which suits me. Talk to y'all later girls.....

 

Stephanie - February 17

Kristie....that is exactly my problem....carrying the pregnancy.....I have been prego 3 times in 2 years, that is pretty good.....just can't or haven't been able to maintain it......doc says to me, "Well if this happens again, we will do some tests and look at other approaches." WHAT????? AGAIN???? He says I have lost 3 pregnancies that were all very different, if they were a similar each time we would have a better idea of what might be going on.....whatever, I really don't know if I can handle another loss.......this last one blew me away......I thought for sure I was home free, because it was the third time....unbelievable......Lynn...20lbs girl I am soooo proud of you....Sandra how goes it with you? Nicole....here in Maine we haven't even had winter yet.....hardly any snow and it has been warm, really strange weather, makes me leary.....I just know we will get the big dump when we are ready for it....March snow storm...hate those......where it has been so mild, I know Old Man Winter is coming with a vengeance........thinking of you all......hoping this month is my "on" month.....gonna bd like the crazy YA YA that I am.....talk to ya

 

sandra - February 17

hi all. You know - i am here moaning that i cant get pregnant but it must be so much worse getting pregnant and miscarrying! ALthough at the time I had my ectopic - i didnt know I was pregnant so it didnt hurt too much mentaly at that time because i didnt have any time to get used to the idea. But when you have been trying and finally thinking that this is it - really is soo sad. I pray for everyone of us. That is so soul destroying and heart breaking. Stephanie we have not had any major snowfalls here either - its usually around feb/march for that. There is snow on the hills though - it looks pretty. I have just sent you all the strangest but cutest pics I have ever seen. Cant believe they are made from marzipan!!! You all seem to be having AF but me. Heaven knows whats going on with my body. No AF or o'ing at all and no symptoms of anything either. Lynn - I am still looking to find an alternate crust for that pie recipe. It sound so delicious!! Congratulations on the weight loss - way to go girl!! I hoping desperately to lose loads more. You and I will get super slim and fit and healthy and get pregnant and put it all back on. Kristie, that is so sad for Angela - I will also include her in my prayers. Nicole - how are you? Hope that ice isnt giving you too much bother. We are going to a baptism on Sunday. Terry;'s cousins new baby daughter. Really dreading it cos I know I will just want to take her home. She is sooo sweet. Her mother had a really difficult pregnancy after several miscarriages so she has been so blessed with little Maria Theresa. Hope we all get good news soon! Thinking of you all. Have a great weekend, talk again soon

 

Lynn - February 18

Hey girls.......Thanks for the vote on weightloss. Sandra...I would gladly get thin, get pregnant, gain weight and loose it again to have a little person in our house. I know you would also. I am trying to think of what you can do for pie crust. Do you have any different pie crust other than the kind you bake? My mom used to make it with melted butter and crushed graham crackers. let me ask her tomorrow and I will e-mail it. Stephanie......How do they know each mc was different? I vote a trip to an RE. Do you know of a good one in your area. Here is NC if you have 1, they send you off to fertility specialist. Seeing I was 34 and we were trying for 2+ and had a mc...I went off to RE. I have only been back to an OB for annual visit. I am not planning on going back until I am pregnant. I say ask lots of questions...ask about prometrium.....get some answers so you do not potentially need to go through it again. Sandra...can you call OB and ask if there si some way to induce a period? In the states, they use a drug called provara. Again....you call and ask. Tomorrow dh adn I are going on a "date". After we are going to BD and continue every other day until I get AF or BFP. Well...no school/work on Monday for President's Day. Planning on driving dh crazy....Have a wonderful weekend...I will check back again

 

Lynn - February 20

Hey girls....date night went good for us. We had a little dinner out and did a little shopping. I go on Friday for appointment to check and see where follies are growing this month. I am kind of scared. I do not knwo what will happen if I hear..."Lynn, I am sorry, they are on your right side again." UGH!!!! My dreams of having a child will be shattered. I know....no need worrying just yet but.........anyway. I hope everyone had a good weekend. Sandra, good luck in the weigh in tomorrow. My mom was in a horrible mood so I did not get a chance to ask her how to make a crust. I will ask her tomorrow. Kristie...thanks for the joke. Stephaine...how are your temps? I am not doing it this month since we are checking about the meds. Talk with y'all tomorrow.

 

Lynn - February 20

Good Morning Ya, Ya's.........No school/work for President's Day. Did all the housework yesterday so not sure what I will be doing today. Have an appintment with my family physician for a check-up so that is really my big plans. Hope everyone had a good weekend and hope to talk to y'all soon. Stephanie.....were you part of the ice storm that came through Maine? Sandra...good luck with your weigh-in.
