1 day DPO and in need of buddies :)

[korink26]

Hi - Can I join you ladies? I am planning to test on the 9th. About 2 years of TTC and 3 MC's in the last year so I am ready!!! My first MC (which went the longest) I knew something was wrong too. I started to lose symptoms and got extremely emotional.

Oh, what a hard year for you! This month will make it a year of TTC with 1 miscarriage. Did they test anything after your 3rd to find out why? I also worried because I never had any symptoms besides really sore tata's.

 

[korink26]

Hey ladies! I hope we all get our BFP's and korink it was supposed to be my second child, i have a 15 month old daughter but I know exactly how you feel. I atfirst thought Lana was my miracle child and I wasnt supposed to have kids. this is our first time ttcing... I predict we all get BFP's. I'm going to test on the 10th because I start my move to switch duty stations on the 11th. So many exciting but stressful events lol. Has anyone had any symptoms yet? I actually tracked back today and I'm 4 days DPO lol! I've been feeling tired the last few days and tonight I craved spinach pizza with Italian sausage.

I'm 3 DPO and my face is really flushed and warm today, and I have a bit more CM. But, that could be anything....

Have fun getting busy Lara! Our husbands are just as thrilled as us probably when we get our positive OPK's!

I was in total shock with my first pregnancy. It was our first month off the pill and everything I read before said it would probably take atleast 4-5 months to fall pregnant - well not me! So, I was kind of in denial for a week or two and then it turned into pure excitement! By around 6-7 weeks I wondered why I didn't have many symptoms (except my boobs - man they hurt!!), and on the way to the early scan at 8 weeks I told my husband I was really anxious and didn't have a good feeling..and sure enough I was right.

Looking back, I think that baby knew it was going to be a bad time to be in my body. I've had the most stressful 3 months in my life the past 3 months. I'm in graduate school working toward my PhD and I had thought I would have my biggest exam done by mid-September, but I had a bunch of other big (stressful) things come up and push my exam date to November 7th (Monday). So, I would have been decently pregnant by now and in my program, pregnancy is not exactly accepted. So, it would have been very stressful on me not only that it's a huge exam (2hr oral exam standing in front of a committee - eek!) but that they would be looking at my pregnant belly.

So, hopefully this is a better time and I had a temp spike this morning so looks like I'm 1DPO FX'd for all of us to get our BFPs!!

Wowsers, you are one busy girl---tons of luck your way for Monday!! I bet now that your big exam is done your body will know this is a good cycle to fall PG! That's good that you got PG so quickly last time, it took us 6 months, and it's looking like it will take us at least that long again this time (5th month currently).I guess the saying that everything happens for a reason is true. I have a bad back, and have 2 bad episodes with it recently, and I've wondered how I would have handled it if I had been 32 weeks pregnant like I should have been at that time. God, that suddenly makes me really sad to think I should be 32 weeks PG!

Korink - My last MC was tested and found out it was a Trisomy 12 (doesn't really mean much because they have no way or knowing that the others were the same cause). Then went to a specialist for a bunch of testing. About 3 1/2 months later only thing they really found was a high Homocysteine level. There are some conflicting beliefs on whether this would cause a MC. Regardless, it apparently can cause birth defects so I am now on 2 mg of Folic Acid (in addition to my prenatal vitamins) to get this level down. Basically my doctor just feels like I have just had "bad luck" and I kept falling into the normal statistic that approx 40% of pregnancies end in MC. I am hoping that all the poking around they did helped "clear things out" for a successful pregnancy next time!!!

Miscarrying isn't something i don't wish on anyone. Its tormenting, depressing, sad, heart wrenching, but the one thing it has done for all of us is to be able to tell a story. To be able to share with one another in the same situation about our feelings. To TTC together again. Its brought all of us together! We're meant to read eachothers stories and learn from them. I never thought I'd be grateful for my m/c but i am compared to some of you poor women who carried your baby inside of you for 12+ weeks. Even them girls are back at it and have hope still running through their veins! We're all inspirational in our own ways and i do believe God wouldn't put a child in our life and take them away without ever giving them back to us. It was simply not our babies time yet. Some things still needed to be perfected. We will get our babies soon! Stay positive! I know certain days are hard but God wouldn't give us more than we could handle and if he did that's when he steps in. FX'd for BFP's for the month of November! I am testing in the morning. Tmrw i will be 12dpo. I took a test 9 and 10dpo and were neg. High hopes that will change around!

 

[ash090290]

Well confused, they say that everything happens for a reason and now hopefully you and your baby can finally meet.
And YAY Lara+Sam+bump!!!

 

[BeachChica]

Well said baby dust!! FX'd for you today!!!! at 12 dpo are you late or is that still early for you? My luteal phase is only 11 days.

 

[korink26]

Yes babydust, did you test?! Fingers and toes crossed for you!

 

[filipenko32]

I miscarried July 28th and DH and I decided to try again this month. I'm so nervous that if i am i'll miscarry again. My AF is due November 13th. Anyone want to join me and share symptoms and hopefully we'll all get BFP's!!!!!!

Hi I am 3dpo and expect my af on 16th November I've also not had a period yet. I'm hoping this will be forth time lucky for me! I have started having symptoms so am pretty hopeful!!

 

[BeachChica]

filipenko32 - what symptoms are you having? I'm not sure if mine are anything or not. I felt some twitching and cramping after OV and starting yesterday my boobs got a little tender/sore.

 

[babydust818]

Hey girls! So sorry for not updating. I took a hpt yesterday and got another BFN. Today AF was due and she showed up. That stupid little bia!! I was really hoping this month would have been it but i have a good feeling about this upcoming month! Fx'd for everyone still waiting to test. Good luck!! Keep me posted!

 

[filipenko32]

Sorry to hear that Babydust. Hang in there, you WILL get there and it will be so wonderful when you do x x

 

[filipenko32]

Beachchica, i have been having:

vivid dreams, extreme lethargy, lots of gassiness, snoring at night (only do this on a prego cycle, slightly very mildly sore tingling boobs but hardly noticeable, lots of white cm (sorry if tmi) emotional already and an on and off heavy feeling but I think mainly for me it's the vivid dreaming! I am only 4dpo so it could all be my imagination tho!

 

[filipenko32]

oh and mild heartburn, mild but there, these symptoms are just like my last pregnancy cylce about 2 months ago

 

[korink26]

Sounds promising filipenko!! Dreams are a big thing for me, and when I was PG last time, I had really vivid (kind of embarrassing, but usually they were sexual dreams), this past week I've been having really detailed dreams (not sexual this time) and last night I dreamt that I was PG, and got 2 positive tests! It was all so real, I was very sad to wake up today. I hope it comes true! Also, today I'm 6 DPO and had a big temp spike, highest it's ever been. I'm thinking it could have to do with daylight savings time though...Fx'd our dreams are a good sign!!!

 

[filipenko32]

Hi korink, what were your detailed dreams about, like the main theme? Last night I had dreams about vehicles, all different types and that's supposed to be a sign of pregnancy. After saying all this ive probably jinked it and i won't be pg now!! I definitely think you're going to be with dreams like that!! Let me know!!

Well....this is going to sound so silly. Friday I dreamt that I was at my best friends house, and she wasn't home, so I started snooping through her things. I wanted to read them, but never got the chance because I decided to try on one of her shirts which was way too small so I got stuck in it and her husband caught me trying to get out of the shirt. My friend was so mad at me, and I was so embarrassed. Saturday night, I had a dream about a big volleyball game I was in, but our team was horrible and we still kept winning. I could not serve the ball or do anything right in the game. My feelings were so strong in the game of frustration and nervousness.
Then last night, I dreamt that I was surrounded by water and I was rowing somewhere. All of a sudden I realized I was pregnant and I had 2 positive tests wiht me and was shocked because I'm only 6 DPO and I was telling my mom I couldn't believe it because because last time I was PG I barely tested positive at 13DPO. I kept looking back at the tests I had taken, and they were bright blue. Then, right before I woke up, I was dreaming that I was coated in a shell of chocolate, and 2 of my guy friends were trying to lick the chocolate off, but it was melting too quickly. haha, just too weird!
Sorry so long, probably way more info than you wanted!

 

[filipenko32]

That's really interesting. Can i try to interpret for you? You probably already know but i think that your friend's house scene is about your body about to get bigger and your friend is mad as you never told her you were pregnant! I think frustration and nervousness are how you feel now waiting... and the water is amniotic fluid. And the choc one? Well you probably just want that to happen in real life anyway!!!! You're defo gonna be preggo! How exciting! Let me know. When you going to test?

How interesting, thank you for taking the time to interpret!! Dreams are really fascinating to me.
Thanks for the confidence booster, but I'm not feeling too positive. I don't have the symptoms like you! If my temp stays up the next couple days then I might get excited, and if it's still up on Sunday I plan to test (I'll be 12DPO). Last month I was certain I was PG, so I was so broken up when I wasn't, so this month I'm trying not to get my hopes up.
Are you going to wait until the 16th to test? What day did you get your BFP last time? I had the LIGHTEST of lines at 13DPO, but it was a cheap blue dye test so I now have FRER and I hope it will work on 12 DPO.
Well, here's to a week of wild dreams that hopefully lead us to the 1st Tri group!!!!!

 

[BeachChica]

Wow ladies - That is so interesting about the dreams!!!! I have never heard anyone mention that before so not sure if I experienced them with any of my other pregnancies. Over the weekend I had a couple nights of very vivid dreams too. (I usually don't remember my dreams). It was sort of about a vehicles... we have a boat so it was about our boat and some (imaginary) remodeling they were doing at our marina... creating new docks, a snack bar, etc. Strange!!!

The only symptom I really feel is heavy an sore boobs, but I had that last month and got a BFN. I have felt some twitching etc and I did see the implantation dip on my temperature chart (but that doesn't really mean anything either). Ughhh.. so frustrating! Trying to be patient for the next couple days.
