Morning ladies. Brooke, I am so sorry hon. They say that women are most firtile after the miscarriage. As long as you dont need a d & c then you could try right away. I am still hoping it will work out. I cant believe it has been almost a year since my miscarriage. Somehow we find the strength to go on and keep trying. I am sending lots of smiles and hugs. JD, tell us your story. Starr, have you ever considered that there is more then on JD out there? We dont welcome deceipt or negativity on this thread. Basically the motto is if you have nothing nice to say, dont say anything at all. Rachel welcome to our thread. I am sorry that your journey has been so hard. I hope clomid will work for you. It did not for me, but it has for countless others. Are you ttc your first or do you have kids already? Robyn, thanks for the e-mails. I was cracking up. I am as New York as they come. :) I adopted this great city and it has adopted me right back. Jamie, let us know how your appointment goes. I am crossing my fingers. Katt did you send that letter yet? Hello to Kathy, Kelley, Nicole, Denise, Rhonda, Leslie, Erin, Shauna! Love yas.

Erin, when will you test?

 

mommywannabe - September 5

Well unmedicated (Clomid) which this month was I usually start around CD28-CD29 so maybe like CD30. I just don't want to waste money like I do every month only to get a BFN. When do you think I should test? When I have been on Clomid it extended my cycles to like 32 days but I didn't take it this month because I am still waiting on DH to do his S/A and so I kind of took a break until we know what his numbers are. We still were going to try but just without meds because we wanted to find out what his count was. He had it scheduled for last week but they called the week before and had to reschedule to the end of this week but he may have to cancel if I am a BFP!! LOL!! What do you think I should do?

Good morning everybody. Only one more day until school starts here YEAH!! thanks for all the well wishes for my anniversary. We had a very nice dinner on the water here. We watched the sunsets and ferries go by. Very romantic, too bad I feel like a house right now!! Then yesterday we were out running errands and someone rear ended us at a stop light. It scared me to death. It wasn't hard enough to make our airbags deploy, but we thought for sure when we got out we'd have a huge dent in our bumper, but it was just scratched up. I was emotional for the rest of the day as I was so worried about the baby. I didn't call my doctor, I thought about it, but it was a holiday and they'd just send me over to the E.R. and I didn't have any real pain, just a little achey in my lower back, but I told my dh I think it was mostly just stress making it hurt. The baby has been moving lots and I didn't have any bleeding or anything like that. What do you guys think, should I have called? Melissa - I bought my spanx at Nordstroms. They have a pretty big selection I found. If you don't have one by you, try looking on their website. Kelley - happy (belated) 4th anniversary! I started having trouble sleeping about the same time here. I'm up pretty early now too because I can't get back to sleep after peeing at 5 a.m.! Katt - let me know if you try that stop smoking drug. My best friend smokes and I would love to give her some ideas because she's tried the patch and it didn't work for her, but she's like to try something because cold turkey doesn't seem to work for her. Tanya - I hope everything works out with dh's car and he is done venting about it. Has the weather let up any? Robyn - your house sounds great! I'll bet you can hardly wait to move in. Erin - keep us updated on testing. Brooke - I'm so sorry sweety. No words can make it better, but know that we are all here for you.

 

mommy2josh - September 5

Hi Leslie. I would call the doc anyway. When I was pg, my doc always said to call him for every little thing. Better safe then sorry. People could be so careless sometimes. DH is mostly done veniting, he is still annoying though. I guess AF will be here soon. LOL.

Oh yeah!!! If none of ever watched Rockstar or never ever watch it again WATCH IT TONIGHT! Lukas is doing a 2 song set (as is all 5 singers) and one is an original - it'll blow you away! Okay that's my opinion, but I read the spoilers and it is defeintely a mind blower!!!!!!!!

 

ROBYN - September 5

Hey all my girls... Katt I am still trying to read your post!!! LOL !!! DO NOT give me any heads up on RSSN I tivod it. I worship LUKAS !! LOL He needs to win this competition. Anyway still waiting on the IVF nurse to tell us we are accpeted hopefully in a couple of more days they said no later than Friday. Brooke sweety I am glad your doing better. I personally never went thru a m/c so I dont understand. But no matter what we will always be here for you and will all help you get thru this. <<HUGS>> Hey Rhonda I have been at my job for 17 years and I am a traffic crash investigator and police dispatcher. Not really an official cop. Though you get the same uniform same car and same stuff you dont carry a gun. Kinda doesnt make a lot of sense for safety reasons. But I got very comfortable in my job quickly and built up a lot of seniority so years passed and I shoulda went to the police academy. Any way how are you guys doing? Did you hubby find a job? Kelley I had to laugh about your dream. Anyway to the newcomers you are welcome on our thread but PLEASE no fighting or negativity. We are a very close group of girls and we need each other for support and advice. (thats my say). As for our TTC story I have an 8 yoa son from a previous marriage, just got remarried a few months ago and we have been together for almost 3 years. We have been TTC our 1st together for a little over a year. We have been seeing an RE since February I was doing Clomid with Ovidrel Trigger shots. We had to successful cycles. My issue was ovulation. That occurred with 150mg of Clomid. After 4 cycles we have decided to get more aggressive. Both myself and DH have been tested for everything we are completely fine. I do have scar tissue from a kidney removal when I was a baby which seems to be what the problem is for not getting preggo. So after meeting with our RE last week we all made a mutual decision that IVF was our best route and upped our chances to over 50%. So in the next month or so we will start that journey. Anyway.... I will check in a little while I have to work tonite. YUCK !!! Sorry for the long drawn out post but I am trying to compete with Katt!! (luv you)!!!! CYAS
