at me as if i'm very strange!! i have decided to keep it abit more quiet

now, just tell my boyfriend and my close friend, everyone seems to think i'm

not coping with it, that's just not the case at all.

this morning i have woken up feeling like a huge weight has been lifted off

my shoulders, finally i am in contact with women who feel the same way, i'm

not mad, i'm not stupid and it's ok to feel the way i am. i guess on some

level i knew that this was true, its just nict to have it comfirmed!!

thanks.

T,

I hope things work out so you can see your dr and maybe get some further answers

on your tube. I know, for me, I had a little peace of mind having the hsg done

(to check to see if my remaining tube was open) Keep us posted. M

hi keri,

i was told when i went for my six week check up that there was nothing wrong

with my other tube,

in england we have general practitioner doctors who we go to if we are

generally ill and then if you are referred to a doctor for something you

just get the one you are given!! i don't even know the name of the doctor

who operated on me, that makes me sound really ignorant. at the time is was

desparate to get out of hospital and ignore everything that had happened to

me.

i'm thinking that i may go to my doctor and talk to him about checking my

body out, it's hard though as the waiting lists are very long and i don't

have the money to go through a private hospital. they are not very keen on

sending people who are just 'curious' about their health.

i'm going to make an appointment, i need to find out what hapened to me in

order to move on. i am definately finding alot of answers from speaking to

everyone, it has been fantastic. i'm so glad i made the first step.

thanks

I'm glad you and your best friend had a nice talk! It's always nice to have

things on the up and up between yourself and friends. I know my friends are

there for me as well, but it's not the same as this group...none of them

have had an ep and don't quite know the range of emotions I have. It's good

to have both the ladies here and my other friends to talk to about different

things. It also keeps me from dwelling too much!

T,

Wow, I am sorry to hear you have to wait another week to test again. Maybe your

dr is right about Oing two times. I know it is going to be very hard to wait

another WHOLE week but I am praying that af stays away during that time!!!

There is still hope!!!!! +++++++++thoughts and ************************ to

you!!!!!!! M

I check several times during the day (each time I am in the bathroom) and I have

found I am pretty much the same all day long. And I use the stretch

test....stretch it between your fingers an inch stretch is a good stretch!!!

You can usually get enough just from the tissue when you wipe, I prefer this to

" digging " for it that kind of grossed me out!! You can also stretch it on the

paper but I have found the paper slips or moves and you dont get a good idea of

how much stretch there really is. I know this sounds really kind of gross but

it has always worked for me and I have been right on with it....just remember to

wash afterwards.....that is a given!!

I had my blood draw this am and just got the results back it is at 0 we are not

pg but no af either, Dr looked at my charting and he is thinking that maybe I

am o ing 2 x a month and the first didnt take and too early for the second so

he wants me to treat myself as if I am.....and if no af in 1 week from today I

need to go in and see him for further tests.....I feel like oh boy here we go

again!!!

Anyhow hope the info on the cervical mucus charting helps some!

Re: Questions re: Clomid

Hi ,

Thanks for offering some help. My main concern is how to check it.

Should I check it 1st thing in the morning or is anytime ok? I really

am having a hard time with this. I can check my BBT temp easily

enough but this.... it's driving my nutty. Could you tell me what

your procedure is? Maybe that would help.

By the way, how did everything go? Are your reading above 2?

Hopefully, af is on vacation for about 9 months. I'm send some angel

dust and some prayers your way. Thanks and Good Luck,

Oh thank you sooooooooooo much. You made me feel so much better. Like I said,

I would never want to make anyone feel worse than they already do and I know I

did have trouble seeing and hearing about other pgs but for some reason, for me

personally, I was always thrilled to see someone hear post they were pg again

and in the right place. I couldn't wait to run and tell my dh and he really

started seeing a change in me, even though I still missed our baby, I began to

feel better. It really did give me such hope. I had been reading all the

info and stats on eps after mine and started feeling even more hopeful for my

future until I found this group and heard about " real " people getting pg after

an ep. I know I didn't really have family and friends who understood what I had

been through and it makes it extremely hard to deal with. I wish no one else

would ever have to go through what we have been through but I am so glad we have

each other. Thank you for your sweet post....it really made my day!! (smile)

Re: -Marie...Re: tracey B and all

TraceyB and everyone

I am so glad you feel comfortable here. I am glad you don't mind receiving posts

from me. I would never want to step on anyone's feelings. I know everyone is

in different stages here but this group helped me in more ways than I could ever

say and I just want to try and help others as much as possible. I still grieve

for my little angel baby and it brings me comfort knowing I have all of you. I

try to remember to put (pg ment) in my posts that contain anything regarding pg

bc I know it is a tender subject to many. {{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}

Tracey tab1018@...> wrote: Thanks -Marie for encouraging anyone who

is not ttc to post. I do

know that this is an EP list and not just a ttc one. There were just

a couple of weeks there where there were several posts that were

mainly about trying to conceive and, as I have said before in another

post, I guess I was just overwhelmed with talk of ttc and didn't

really feel like what I was going through fit into what everyone was

saying. Also there are only a few people on here who regularly answer

my posts..and I know I try to write to as many people and on

different topics as I can relate to...Maybe there is some confusion

in terms of writing back & forth because there's another person with

the same name but I try to distinguish myself from that person as

often as possible plus our names aren't spelled the same.

But, all that aside, I feel comfortable with talking and hearing

about all different topics not just the things that I am going

through now. I'm not bothered by the talk of ttc at all and am very

glad to hear that people who have gone through an ep are able to do

so. I also think it's great that there are people who are about to go

through childbirth right now and they still take the time to talk to

the people that they met on this list. As a matter of fact, M.

was one of the first and few to write back to my original post when I

first came on here. I recently wrote a post in response to

going through hard times and also addressed it to all newcomers but I

heard nothing back from anyone. So, between not knowing what to say

in response to the ttc posts and then not getting much of a response

when I tried to reach out to people, those were the main reasons why

I stepped back for awhile. I have talked to some very nice people and

gotten great advice from a couple of the 's, T., M.,

Sheila, Terri, and (I think) . I am open to speaking and

answering any questions for anybody here. Although, I can't really

give any ttc advice or info on ivf, etc. Hey, I'll even re-post my

original post if it will help anybody out ) (hehe). Well, I hope

that everyone that is having a rough day is feeling better and all

those that are ttc are seeing baby dust!

Hugs to any who need them,

Tracey B.

keep getting sore nipples but obviously not pg so I put that down to clomid

too. Have you had anything similiar?
