Hi ladies. I haven't posted on here for a while but I do check in every once in a while to see how everyone is doing. We all started this journey around the same time & I hoped that you all would have had your sticky little beanby now,but its not in our timming as we all know its gods timming. Carla,Shannon,Tommie,Jozzy & anyone else on here I missed I pray that god gives each of you the strength to continue on this long & sometimes painful journey. I feel very blessed that it happened for me so fast & sometimes when I read your posts & hear all the struggles & heart ache you all go through each month I feel a little gulty & feel I shouldn't post any updates on my pregnancy. I only wish the best for all of you & really do hope & pray that all of you get that little miricle you have been wanting & praying for soon. BABY DUST TO YOU ALL.

Well ladies, I started spotting last night, so its not my month again. My DH is going to be so sad...Well the next step is to have him to a Seman analysis. If that comes back ok, then I"ll to the HSG. But I think he needs to go next..LOL
I think we are going to wait 2 more months, then have him go, then after him, will determine the HSG for me..

I should know next friday if this month of clomid worked. I didn't take Trigger shot this time so I ovulated on cd14 which will give me a 10 day LP. I think this is to short of a LP to concieve. I have decided that I'm going to take the summer off from TTC and if it happens great if not I'm going to return to the RE in September for more clomid. I'm trying very hard to give it god and I feel like if I temp, monitor and take clomid I'm not truly turning it over to him.
Tommi Are you going to take progesterone? Have they tested you on day 21 to see what your level is to see if this is what is causing the mc? I've read that if you are low in progeterone that you have to take it from 2 DPO for it to even help. If you take it when you first find out you are pregnant that it won't get enough in the system fast enough to help.
Carla You're not to old. Did you see on 4/26/2008 pregnancy report all the 40ish women. It just might take a little time.
Jozzy Is that your name on the 2WW thread? I'm on that one also.

Tommi and Jozzy, thanks for all of your encouraging words. I am trying to stay positive. I'm getting those emotional feelings again. I supposed to start by next Tues again, and I think I'm going to. Last night with a bowel movement (TMI) I saw a spot of blood, so that pretty much means she is on her way AGAIN! So here I go again. One month I'm fine with it, then next month I'm not, one month I"m emotional and I cry, the next month I'm ok..I just don't know. My DH wants a baby soooooooooo bad, you have no idea. I do too, but each month when I start to see the look on his face, it just kills me. Last month we thought I might be, he was smiling from cheek to cheek, and just glowing, then I started 2 days late. He was so sad, in fact, I think he got tears in his eyes...it just kills me! I have to stay positive, I know. I said to myself this morning, if it is meant to be, it will be...and thats pretty much it...HONESTLY!
Well ladies, I wish you the best..My thoughts are always with you, and I hope you get your BFP soon.
Jozzy, its going to happen sweety, I just know it.

Hey Carla!! Hang in there!! It is so hard to be patient and not get frustrated every month. I'm glad I had the HSG, I was a basket case waiting to have it, but I'm glad to know now. I feel myself slipping into that angry/bitter stage and I don't want to be that person. I'm just not ready to give up yet. I want a baby too badly to give up. Let us know if you decide on the HSG. We are here for you and I'll be cheering you on!!!
Jozzy, thanks for always being so positive. I just know that your turn is right around the corner.
Shannon, how are you doing? Hang in there!!! Hope you are well.
To all our other sept ladies, best wishes. Bensmom, if you're still checking in, I would love an update!!!
Glad to hear that you have recovered well. Physically - but mentally I know it will take some time. Like you said, atleast you have gotten pregnant twice. I hope the next one is it for you. I can tell you want it so badly. I"m not sure where my thoughts are with it these days. I was getting so emtional for the first 4 months that I just couldn't take it and I stopped taking temps, using OPK's and all. I just write down every month when I start, and I make sure that I start again the next month. I used the Ovulation calendars to figure out when I supposed to ovulate and I watch for the CM. But that about it. I still take my vitamins. I'm just not sure what to think anymore. I know I'm older, so I can understand, but I always say to myself, there are plenty of ladies out there that have had healthy babies at my age, so I stay positive. I'm just waiting. Once a year goes by I'm not sure how I'll feel then. Maybe in the next couple of months I should atleast do the HSG test to ensure my tubes are open. In a way I'm scared to even know that too! I think I'm scared it just not going to happen, so I'm trying to go easy on myself so I don't loose it!
Jozzy, hang in there. Your tubes are open, so it will happen for ya. I just know it!

Hi Carla! I'm doing fine, I've been keeping busy this week. I had my last blood draw today. I waited until the end of the week so the numbers would be zero. I tested BFN on tuesday, but wanted to wait as long as possible so I didn't have to go back again. Yes, a short break from ttc is what I need. I want this to happen so badly it hurts. Maybe that's why it's not happening for me. I think the losses make it worse because my hopes go up so high and then I really get low and depressed because then you worry if it's a regular M/C or an ectopic. But then at the same time I'm thankful I even got pregnant (twice), even if the joy was short lived. I pray God will bless me with one that sticks!!!! Not just me but all of us.
Thank you Carla and all of you wonderful ladies, just for being here for me to chat with. I hope you all have great weekends.
Hang in there. Glad to hear you didn't have to take the metho shot. So sorry to hear the news for you once again. Sounds like taking a short break will be good for you. The good thing is that your are super fertile! and you know you can get pregnant! I just wish you didn't have to go through so many experiences along the way, just because you are so fertile. I know it must be hard. I can't even image! I've never been in your shoes, so I can't even begin to feel what you must be feeling. Hang in there. Its going to happen :-)

Hi Carla, I'm so glad you are all moved and doing well. It's always nice when life gets back to normal! It's really good to "hear" from you!
Shannon, thanks for thinking of me. You are such a nice person.
I had my HCG drawn this morning and it's down to 13. This is a relief b/c if it had stayed around 50 I would have had to have the metho shot. My bleeding started back last night so I guess this is the end of it. My doctor said that it was just another early M/C and he doubted that it was ectopic. He reminded me to take a few months to rest emotionally and physically and when I do get pregnant again to take the Prometrium. I am just so relieved I didn't have to have the shot!!! I just wish this bleeding would stop!! Sorry, I know that's just TMI. The doc did say he was a little concerned about me becoming anemic so he would check that (blood count) with my next HCG if I thought I needed to. I will wait until friday to go back for blood work.
Well, I'm going to watch some TV with DH. Jozzy, I hope you are doing well. Thanks for your nice words. You are so kind. I wish all of you ladies the best. I will still be on here, probably daily, to check on everyone's progress, but I'm definitely taking a break from TTC for a short while. I will continue to keep each one of you in my thoughts and prayers.

oh my gosh! I missed a bunch! We have been busy moving! So I haven't been on here. We aren now officially all moved in and all is well.
Wow, Tommi! You did it again! Well, if this one isn't the one, I have a feeling the ONE is coming! I know you must be a nerviou wreck! I hope all if well for you.
As for me, I have no idea. I've kinda given up. I'm probably just too old for this. I don't monitor or do anything anymore. I am still taking Vitex, vit E and B-13, and folic acid. But nothing for me :-(. I had AF on 4/23. But I don't even know if I ovulated or anything. Like I said, I don't even keep up with it anymore...
