Great news congrats!!!

threewillys:

Thanks girls!!! 'I am still in shock.! And I forgot how good pizza tastes!

I am actually busting to have an ultrasound done because I have been having ovulation tracking done to check that I have been ovulating, which I have. This last cycle they said that my estrogen levels were really high, at least double what they should be which would indicate more than one egg. I already have frat. twins so I know that sometimes I do release more than one, but I guess I'll have to wait and see !

Congrats Threewillys!!!

You must be thrilled its not faint at all at least its a good indication that pregnancy is very healthy, wishing you a healthy and happy 9 months!

Thanks Bequits, I can wait to get an U/s aswell !! I guess it's fairly unlikely, but I know the blood test lady said there is probably more than one egg there. My estrogen level (E2) that they measure for ovulation was well over 2000 the day before my lh surge, and they said they look at about 700-900 per egg. So whoo knows, only one might have been fertilised or viable..

Thanks Melody ! We did try for 0+12. The previous 2 attempts were 0+12, but in hindsight I think I left it too late, and the egg was dead each time. So this time, I had a positive lh surge on the thursday morning early, and my ovacue confirmed O had happened by the friday morning, and we dtd about 4.30pm fri. arvo..Dh had about a 3 week abstinaince. I used acijel before, and about 1ml of lime afterwards because my ph was in mid to high 5's. It came back down for a little while but then went up again. I kept doing this about 4 times, using both lime and acijel. After a while I got up (and I know this is way tmi!), and put some of the 'stuff' on a slide to check it under a microscope. ALL of them were dead. I did this about 6 times (I actually did it like retrieving cm) and they were all dead. I didn't see one alive. I panicked and said to dh about 2-3 hours later we have to do it again ( which I know is not recommended), but I was so over the diet and everything. I got him to release in a cup, and I put some lime in it to bring it down to mid 4's. I then checjed this batch under the microscope and it looked ok, at least there was movement !! So in it went !. I layed there for a good hour or two and used acijel here and there. I didn't want to get my ph too low as I think in the past this has been a problem....

So, now the wait starts !

Thanks Spring, this is my 3rd attempt ! Yay !

Hey praying4 a pwincess ! After having had both twins and a singleton, twins were much easier ! My twins seemed to occupy themselves alot my than my other one, and entertained each other more, which made life easier for me. If it's on your side of the family, it definitely could - if they are fraternal twins. I have noone in my famiily who had them, so it was surprise (a very pleasant one), for me!

Thanks Krystal !

Hey nyOzgirl, thanks! I will have some for you guys, I have alot of lost time to make up for!

Hey lemon !

The diet does get so hard, I will never ever forget it! It's burnt into my memory! I don't think I will be able to stomach greek yoghurt or broiled salmon for a very long time!

Trying to fall pregnant can be really frustrating, let alone if you can't eat a block of chocloate or drink a bottle of wine when it doesn't happen !

I am 34, and my youngest is 3 this month, so I was busting for it to happen soon. We were going to start the diet last January, but my mum was diagnosed with uterine cancer in Feb, so ttc was totally out of my mind.

Yeah, we tried for 0+12, but I think it was more like 0+9 or so. With ovulating, I have been having ov. tracking done through blood tests for my pcos to check I am actually O'ing, so this has helped. I also invested in an Ovacue (with v.probe), which has been a godsend! It tells you throughout the day when you actually Ovulate, so this is really helpful with 0+12. I know I seem to usually have my lh surge overnight, and ovulate overnight aswell, or early morning.I roughly did bbt's, but didn't go by them at all because I am often woken up through the night with my 2yr old (should be fun with a newborn thrown into the mix!). I found the easiest way to monitor 0+12 is through cm. This is my biggest clue to when I am getting around that time. Also the ovacue was invaluable !

Thanks Lemon !

Thankks Mrs Blue!

Melody:

That early dark line indicates high HCG which could probably mean twins! Maybe you have two pink babies in there?? I hope that you get what you wish for! 

I was surprised when it showed up because it was just under 9dpo when I tested. It crossed my mind about the hcg too!

Thanks aswell Melody for all of your posts on IG. They have been soooo helpful to me over the last few months.!

Thanks Maple, this was my 3rd attempt. I will definitely keep you all posted!

Maple29:

Me too!! What a way to finish off our family that would be!

Maple29:

Thanks, and I hope all of you lovely ladies do too !

I have already done 3 tests, including one digital which said 'pregnant 1-2' ! I am a poas addict for sure!
