hi ladies! Hows everyone? Lynn - hope you're now o'ing and getting ready to bd like crazy! Have fun girl!!! Stephanie- hows your temps now? Settled down any? Its cd30 for me and no signs of anything other than my sheer frustration!! Brother's visit was good. Was great to see him, he stays around 350 miles away - a good 6 hour drive so dont get to see him as often as I would like. Its just me and him - no other siblings! Nicole - glad you are feeling better and going back to work. Being in the house all day sure does get boring after a while. Kristie - I can relate to the snoring! Terry snores constantly and we have also tried everything. He smokes so I dont think that helps. My friends hubby had an op to sort the problem. He was actually stopping breathing during it and the snoring was waking him up or he may not be alive now. Usually I lie awake for hours while terry snores his heart out and i usually kick him, elbow him, shout at him - usually to no avail whatsoever. One of us usually ends up on the sofa. Certainly explains why i am so tired most of the time. Very cold here, today ice on ground, car is covered in ice. around 28 here. very chilly. Kyle is not at school today - his asthma got him again - he has very sore chest. Cold weather seems to trigger it, so I am nursemaid today. Anyways best go and see to the patient. Talk tomorrow x

Hey Sandra....I took HcG shot on Sunday at 6am and O is 36 hours later so......we did some BDing on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday and will go again tomorrow. Like I said...it will need to be a complete miracle this cycle but hey...I could use a good wake up call. My butt/hip is sore where I had to take the shot so hard to sleep or sit down. I never had that happen so I hope it is nothing serious. Hope Stephanie, Nicole and Kristie are okay....Nicole...how did work go today? talk to y'all tomorrow

hi girlies. I lost 2.5 pounds this week so feel good today. Gotta keep at it. Hows everyone? Lynn, poor you having sore butt/hip. Hope it feels better soon. I am praying for you to have a miracle month. I have reached cd31 and had some cramps this morning. Not sure if its AF coming or O'ing although the opks are all negative. Will have to wait and see. Stephanie - hows you? How did your games go at weekend. Lots of wins??? Kristie, when do you go away for your trip again? Nicole, how was work? Bet you thoroughly enjoyed getting out of the house and back to a routine again. I'm playing nursemaid again today - Kyle still off colour. Waiting for doc to call with results of my ultrasound - hate this waiting. Will keep you all posted. catch up with y'all later xx

...want you to all know I am thinking of your...send a longer catch up message tomorrow...no time....ya ya

Sandra....YEAH on the 2.5 pounds!!!!! Keep it up girl, you can do it. I am up to 20.5 pounds lost and dh has lost 24 so far. It is beginning to make a difference but I still have some more to go. We can be the YA.YA. loosing sisters!!! Kristie...are you going to Daytona this weekend? Stephanie...glad to hear from you Ya,Ya...cannot wait to hear what you have to say. Nicole....are you still with us now that you have returned to the world of workers? Don't forget about us. We will still be here cheering you on. Check later....

hi there sisters! Thanks for the support Lynn. I reckon Ive around 40 pounds to lose in total. Will take forever but staying positive. We can lose together!!! Kristie, you readyf or your trip? Stephanie, look forward to hearing from you soon. Hows work Nicole? I now have two sick children off school today. This bug seems to be going round everywhere. Hope I dont get it! As long as Terry doesnt get it cos I dont know about your dh but Terry is the worst patient in the world. If he has a cold he thinks he is dying. I'd like him to swap places with me for a month, see how he likes it. ANyways now cd32 and still nothing at all!! Dont think I will ever ovulate at this rate. Ah well, tomorrow is another day!! Chins up ladies - catch you later xx

Lynn and Sandra.....bravo to you and the weight loss.....I am proud of you both.....I have had a LONG week......2 baby showers.....put me in such a bad mood I wasn't functioning as normal.....very mean to people, very irritable.....very selfish of me, but it really got to me...one was for hubby's best friend's wife,and the other for the sister-in-law.....ugh! I just wanted to crawl under a rock and die....babies everywhere, talk of babies constantly, and the classic "Stephanie we are so sorry for you, how are you feeling?" I wanted to kill someone......I think I am over for now, until the next time.....feel like such a bad person......I couldn't even post to you guys I was sooooo down.....I am feeling better.....temp, however is not like I have ever seen it before.....not looking good, my body is definately still out of whack....I could stand to lose a little weight myself, so I am gonna try......I would like to lose 15lbs......I have just been so negative and I know the baby parties have churned all of that up....kills me.......I am glad to hear the positive in your voices......I like that.......I am tired a lot lately...someone said to have my thyroid checked? I have never had that done, I can't even believe it, but I thought I have had everything checked....any of you have thyroid done? ...not enough time in the day....my little girl's birthday is on the 13th...we are taking the day off from work and school to have a girls day.....much needed....no AF for me yet, don't even know when she is coming because my temps don't look like they should.....oh well I will let you know.....Kristie I LOVED the pics of you and your little MiKayla belly....glad you are feeling well and looking good...drag that your hubby snores, but it made me laugh, so thanks......I will get back to you all soon......YA YA

Hey there girrlies well I wil be leaving tomorrow morning so I figured I would post a few lines before I go take my shower and Tylenol PM and Try to get some sleep!! My dr. said I could take tylenol pm so I have been holding out just to take it tonight. Lynn Good Luck to ya I hope this is your month!. Steph. sorry to hear you've been down but thyroid is one thing to get checked my best friend is 48 years old and has never been pregnant or on birth control. She had her tubes done with the dye and they looked fine but after she had her thyroid checked that explained it. I also have a cousin that has been ttc for 10 years and she found out her thyroid was off. Sandra DON"T Give Up girl I am living proof that it will happen!!!Just try not to get so stressed. Well girls I will miss ya'll and will check back with you all when I get back...I have a 6 hour drive and my bladder is the size of a lima bean is what it feels like so I'll be making more stops this time around....

Kristie...be safe and let us know when you return. It is quiet to day. I hope everything is okay. Anyone heard from Nicole since she went back to work? Sandra...did you weigh this week? How much did you loose girl? I go tonight. Not looking forward to it. Fertility drugs make me gain and I knwo it but it still makes me mad seeing it. Stephanie...how are you? Talk to y'all later.....

hi ladies. Hows all you? Kristie - enjoy your trip. Hope you have a great time. Hope all your pains have gone now. Stephanie - hope you are feeling better. I can relate to being down and feeling miserable but I am just glad to have you all to keep me sane - so thanks sisters! Lynn, I weigh on Monday but will let you know how I get on. I had a major clear out of my clothes today. Threw out 8 bags of stuff for the charity shop. Had a good old spring clean. Feel better now! Very mild here today, around 47. sun shining - its lovely. Whats everyone doing this weekend? Me and dh are off to our friends son's 18th birthday so really looking forward to that. Hope you all have a great weekend, whatever you're doing. take care, Ya Ya

hey there girls. very busy lately. my b-day is tomm the big 27!!! hope all is well, i have to take the dogs to the vet

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICOLE!!!!!!!!!
I hope you had a good day.

Happy Birthday Nicole - hope it was a good one! Hope you had a great day! Hows work? Lynn - hows you? How did you get on with your weigh in? I go today. Over did it a bit this weekend. was at a party. Tried to stay away from the food but couldnt resist. Stephanie - how are you? Are you feeling any happier? I am now on cd37 and still no AF or ovulation - looks like another long cycle. Hope Kristie is having a good time - talk with you all later xx

hey girls............. thanks.... b-day was fun, now i am at home sick. i hope it is not the flu, but i am very achey with upset stomach. how is every one??? i have been so busy, i have not wrote in a while. sorry. work is ok, i wish i was not back yet!!!! i loved staying at home!! i was just being lazy. well, everything is good here. DR said we can start trying agin to get prego next month. hope i have luck, but i am not going to rush it.

Sandra....Last week was a bust. I should have known but thought I got over taking fertility drugs and loosing weight. I gained 3 pounds last week. UGH.....oh well, I know why (not really what I ate...meds) but now I have that to loose again. I go on Thursday night so I'll let you know then. Dh has lost 25 pounds so far..men....I would might ask about what they can do for you ovulation. Has anyone ever looked into PCOS? Sometimes I read your posts and think you have got some good signs for this. Long cycles or none at all, no ovulation, weigh issues....there are a whole mess of symptoms. Some people are classic case and some have some signs but not all. Maybe you can ask doctor about that. I take a diabetic drug (if not diabetic, it help in natural ovulation) called glucophage to help is my ovulation. I do no ovulate on my own without some drug. Since taking it on October 8th, I have ovulated every month. See if they will prescribe that. the generic is metformin. Nicole......glad you had a good day and sorry to hear you are under the weather. I usually get sick in March early April so I guess I have that to look forward to. Just take trying again slow. Many of our body parts were moved so you never know. Stephanie.....hey YA, YA....where the heck have you been? I am beginning to think our thread is getting to be a bust. I stop adn check but no one seems to be writing much. I guess we all are a little stressed wanting something so bad we can do just about anything for it. i also find myself beginning to get angry at things I have no control over...ugh....Kristie...hope your having fun while you are working...let us know when you are back online. talk to you girls later....YA...YA....

Lynn, I gained 1.5 pounds, damn so I can sympathise with you. i just cannot eat anything without gaining. Beginning to get angry also, and frustrated with doctors and medics who just dont seem to want to help me. Need to get a second opinion I think! Getting to the stage where I just dont want to bd because theres no point. No ovulation, no AF - nothing!! Lynn, I also check on here and no one seems to be writing! I am! I check here several times a day. I know the time difference - think its around 5 hours from your east coast to UK. Its 12.45am here. Just going to bed - not been sleeping well of late so didnt seem any point going to bed. Terry been in bed for hours. Nicole -sorry to hear you're not feeling too good. Hope you feel better soon. Stephanie - hows you? Kristie - catch you soon (obviously you're not reading this). ANyway ladies, Im off to bed now. Talk to you tomorrow x
