Fellow TTC members. AF was suppose to show its ugly head (hate seeing it though) on the 6th of Oct but it never came. Before now, it does come with severe abdominal pain a day before. On the 7th I had a feel of it (slight stain) and some pains which had seized. Is it a dream come true or another disappointment (I hope not!)

Somebody tell me something please.

Ejadamen:

@ Itiade, I totally understand about the discharge,I was rushing to the loo as well. Ahem! Another question. Were you placed on pelvic rest embarassed,as in, no baby dancing throughout the pregnancy? embarassed Did you get up to 40 weeks or did you deliver before that? Sorry about the plenty questions.

My dear, baby kini
I didnt wait for anybody to tell me not to oh. i abstained from it the very minute i knew i was preggie. I didnt make it to 40 weeks, i had twins u know? all the same they were not prems. Knowing that i might not make it to 40 wks, i eat like a glutton from abt 27 weeks. was feeding them every 3hrs. so when they came around they were even bigger than normal babies. More questions pls. lol
I still admit that HIS grace kept us.

We are nothing without HIM.


Cheers darl, eat well and get enoff rest.

grin grin Same here. I know you had twins and I doff my hat for you. I'm trying to plan ahead so I don't get caught unawares. I was told the cerclage will be removed at 36 weeks but I think my bag should be ready before then. I'm also worried about when to shop for baby things since I'm being told to stay off my feet as much as possible. I shall take that hint about eating well,already doing that one sef. I know that it's God who watches over us. By His grace all is well. Can't think of any more questions now so I'll wait till I have more. thank you so much.

This was not directed at me but I have to comment. Limar please try to relax. Getting tensed up will not do you any good. I'm even upset about how 3rd parties will be counting months for someone after wedding as if it's exam. If you need to see a doctor then do to set your mind at ease but please do NOT sink into any form of depression. I've been married for almost 3yrs and as far as my family and in-laws know,I'm yet to get pregnant(mainly cos I haven't told them). It's hard to see people carrying babies and hearing family and in-laws say insensitive things but try to give yourself peace of mind. It was when I decided to relax my mind,exercise etc that I got pregnant. So please cheer up and look to God who is the only one who gives children. Take care and God bless.

Where did monday updates go

Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by abiop: 12:19pm On Oct 11, 2010
@ Limar, You have the best of advice from Ejadamen. You must relax and try not to put ursef under too much pressure. Though the side distractions are difficult to ignore especially for a lady, you just need to concentrate more on understanding your body. I hope you husby is playing the necessary psychological roles to help you overcame this. Dont ever assume you are alright or your DH is alright, seek for a professional doctor and I pray you come across a very helpful and truthful one.

Don't worry Arlinghton, I reserve my comment to when a funny update from you will negate this. Just pray your DH is not reading this.lol
Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by Arlington(f): 1:52am On Oct 12, 2010
@Abiop lia lia my hubby can never catch me, i am a self proclaimed internet Ninja lol.Leave oh i said shop has closed he should come back next year will read his application from march/April grin(na mouth i dey by the time dem go return ask for them dowry money my eye go neat)

EjadamenĀ  grin grin grin another beard again lmao don't worry, buy Bic razor i heard they are good. cheesy The pimples will go away just don't pop them. i have on my back and i cant see them just feel it.The Monday updates have been slow me inclusive by the time i wake up here it is already 1pm Nigerian time and i will say later later then forget. lipsrsealed

@ Limar i am sorry AF showed her ugly head, but please don't start stressing now oh it is too early i beg .
I am not using my self as a yard stick, but you are saying they are counting months for you, me someone used me as an example and said God forbid oh my case will not be like her own. how do you think i felt,i feltĀ  horrible.
As Ejadamen said i am far gone yet i have not told some people only few people know because i had my own friends say they where sure i would not have a child like they where my God.
i refused to cry because i knew i was not barren. even on this Nairaland i had an argument with one guy( because he said he was a medical doctor was giving some advice that made no sense) who has many id's his name then was Pout and said he was not the cause of my wahala oh that i was barren. so my dear trails and tribulations will always come just hold on to God and relax it will happen it does not mean there is anything wrong with you.

I have a few questions:

What is the best position for a woman trying to coneive, to lie in after sex, to ensure best chance of sperm going into the womb?

On her back ?

on her front ?

of on her side?

how long does it take sperm to reach the egg?

Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by ACL(m): 9:13am On Oct 15, 2010
Hi everyone, hope u are are doing good ?

Today is Cd34 and 17dpo but no AF yet, dont know why?
i stopped using clomid last cycyle and decided to go natural this month cos the clomid increased the fibroib sizes.

could the delayed AF be a result of switchin from clomid to natural or is it BFP, am tying not to get my emotion on roller coaster.
am havin sgns of AF wit cramping once in a while but last night the cramping was like the one that comes with AF so i tot this mornin is AF but still waitin.

note, i had HSG done on CD9 ,mayb its a factor for the late AF.cos a cycle after clomid cycles should still be regular.

Hi everyone. Been a while I posted here but I see many are doing well. for others I pray that God will turn your sorrows to rejoicing soon in Jesus' name. There will be pitter patter of little feet around you soon. I have a few copies of my book that I will like to give away to anyone interested. I wrote in while TTC, based on a few things I found out. I now have my own little ones and it might just help someone who is TTC. If you want pls send me a mail, you would have to organise the pick up though.

Good Morning My fellow TTC's
Hope this week brings us all blessings . My Monday update almost took my self to the hospital on Saturday because i thought i was going to have pre-term labour he kept on moving and moving for about 15 hours non stop. i was worried he was tangled in his cord or something else was wrong.
But due to my paranoia i have a fetal heart monitor at home so i could listen to his heart beat at home to see he was just fine just moving up and down for what ever reason.
Went for a scan he only showed me his nose and mouth used his hands to cover his face angry already wanting a spanking but i accepted it as long as he is doing well i thank my God.
my back is hurting and it is getting difficult for me to sleep and i am having pressure in my tummy and think i am going to pee my self sometimes but as always I am not complaning will not change it for anything.
So how was everyones weekend, hope great.

@ Arly did you take something sweet before the movement started? Read somewhere that sweet things and caffeine make babies move in the womb. Weekend was great just very very tiring.

Monday update - I am okay. I feel good. Got some relief from the back pain,it just stopped. Sleeping is getting harder and I am constantly shocked at how my center gravity has shifted plus the growing heaviness. I'm healthy and happy.
Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by Doctor7(m): 1:43pm On Oct 20, 2010
Goodnews to all women seeking the fruit of the womb. Testimonies are abound in our Herbal Medical Centre with the successful treatment of several cases of infertility. First we diagnose the body and confirm the disorders or infection that might be causing the trouble. Then we prescribe herbal food and nutritious food for the patients, usually for both couple and within six months in most cases, women have ran back to us with testimonies of having conceived while some are now carrying their babies. We use a very natural approach to treat the disorders. contact now doctor@herbalmedicalcentre.com

Hello Everyone,

I have been following this thread for a while now. Congrats to those who got there BFPs, i pray you will all carry to term IJN.

I am TTC too, though not for long but you will all agree with me that even a day of TTC can be frustrating angry .

My main issue is i have irregular period so i dont even know if am ovulating or not!, like 40 days plus with severe breast tenderness and spotting inbetween period. Ok i have seeked doctors advice ,did scans and they said everything is ok up there. Am trying to monitor the Ovulation using Clear blue fertility monitor, got high readings with not peak which shows Ovulation (heard it can take up to 3 months to get good result as i just started using it in August). The last doctor i visited said i have low progesterone or hormonal inbalance so to speak.

Can anybody in the house please advice on how to balance Hormone??. BC is definitely a no go area for me, a doctor said it can help but i dont want to use so it wont mess up everything.

Today is CD 42 with no sign of AF cry

It did affect me too. In my own case I couldnt even sit straight for more than 10mins.
It was so baddddddd
I used abt 8 pillows as shock absorbers when i was in bed.
One of my babies was close so closeeeeeeee to the cervix, so when i sit he kicked
At times I imagined him saying "why are you sitting on my head?" tongue

When i think of all i went thru, I ask myself do I really want to do this again.

In all I thank God for the opportunity.
Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by Ejadamen(f): 4:34pm On Oct 26, 2010
Lol! I was wondering and getting scared cos it's getting painful when I sit for long. 8 pillows shocked Right now I use 3 and I was thinking of getting more embarassed grin Itiade you tried. I thank God for your life and your babies.

@faithup,your story is sad but rest assured that you will smile and laugh sometime soon. Just trust in God,it will work out. At the beginning of this year I was so down and wondering if I would get pregnant yet here I am blessing God's name each day. You too will sing a new song.
