1DPO! TWW Buddies?

[wishingforbub]

Hi ladies. . Finished my studying..about to go to bed. Just wanted to check in before
My O type pain is not going away. .. anyone feeling this?

Gohan are you going to see the doctor? I hope the pain goes away and gosh I hope your dream comes true!

Wannabemamaz woohoo for 10dpo! I think it depends on what is normal for you. What I did realise though since having my ds is that whatever I felt in the tww with him were normal pms symptoms for me..even though at the time I thought they were telltale lol. I can't remember my cm from then but I know I get a bit watery cm before af. but like I said it depends on your body. Fxd xx

Geek girl. I would cave and test but only because I wouldn't be able to control myself. However waiting might let you relax and enjoy your Thanksgiving more. ..

Mrs vet...post a pic tomorrow morning... lots of baby dust xxxxx

Wishingforbub - I am also feeling an "O" type pain on my left side (which is the side I always feel when I O). At first I thought it was just lingering from O but it never lasts this long. Hopefully it's a good thing.

When I was pregnant the first time I just got normal AF symptoms before my BFP too. But this time I don't feel much of anything so I don't know what's going on with my body. It's giving me no clues.

Does anyone have experience with having the same symptoms each pregnancy? Or is each pregnancy experience truly unique?

 

[lilsoybean]

Hey ladies!! I tested this morning at 10 dpo on a dollar tree test and got a !!

Did you temp at all? If so, were your temps any indication of your pregnancy? Like, were they extremely high or did they stay pretty steady?

I'm happy our little thread has gotten so many buddies on it! I'm still 8dpo, and yes, I did see the Doctor today...

...turns out I have a massive Staph Infection in my legs, and it has spread to my arms, causing the tendons and muscles to malfunction. He said that I need to stay in bed so I don't fall, and to stay away from ANYTHING that could potentially cut me or poke me. He said if my leg gets cut open, the infection will be uncontrollable. He also said that my I absolutely do NOT have strep throat. It's just a reaction to the Staph. As is the red rash on my legs. He told me that if the infections swells just a tiny bit more, to go to the ER or call him immediately so we can get the infection sites drained. He said he has no idea how this Doctor could have missed something so bluntly obvious.

The Doctor also told me that the urine test he took was not to see if I had a pregnancy from this cycle, but from the last one. He said there would have been no way that hCG would have shown up at 4dpo. He told me to use my HPT's and if there is any glimpse of a to come straight down and they'd do a hCG blood test. Because with this kind of infection, it could be very harmful to a baby....

...now I'm all worried and scared.

Oh Gohan.. I am so sorry. Does your doctor have any idea how you got the staph infection?? How horrible. That does not sound fun. I will pray for you. Don't get stressed about it if you can help it at all.. Just take care of yourself.. Keep us posted on how you are doing.

I have had a really bad day. I found out my Dad has prostate cancer. Our whole family is really struggling today. I'm still having tons of symptoms but every time I catch myself thinking about it I feel guilty even thinking about myself in a time like this.. Really just not a good day..

Hope you're all having a better day...

 

[wishingforbub]

Good morning ladies

Oh wannabemamaz I'm so so sorry:sad: I truly hope that it is in the early stages and that he will be ok. My grandad was diagnosed around this time last year. Luckily they were able to treat it..so I pray your dad's situation is the same.

Gohan, oh dear..how did you get a staph infection? It sounds horrible. I hope you are ok. So good you saw the doc though and he sounds really good too. :bighug: just take it easy and rest up and get better.

Lilsoybean...I read up on the o pain in tww..it says it's the corpus luteum cyst that causes it. The one that's responsible for producing progesterone after the egg is released. A good sign that you ovulated. However some women get there af and for others this was their telltale sign... Fx it is a sign for us. I heard that some women experience the same in subsequent pregnancies and in others it's different. With ds I only had sore bbs and twinges. And just after O had bloating which then returned. Things started showing after I got my bfp. Oh I hope the stays away and we all get our !!

9 dpo today...no tests at home..temp still up. Bbs still sore. Weird feelings in uterus area. That's it for me.
Hope you all have a good day xx

 

[Mrs. Vet]

Gohan, oh my that is terrible! How could the ER doctor not see that!! I hope it will all turn out ok!

wannabemamaz I am so sorry! So many bad news today!

Tested again this morning, BFN Must have been a really nasty evap last night! I am going to complain to Clearblue, you would think at least their tests should be reliable...

I'm hanging in there, I suppose. The infection has completely paralyzed my right wrist and almost my left wrist. The inflamed spots on my legs have swollen up worse and become very red. I started to get nervous and I couldn't calm myself down, and I went into a full-blown panic attack earlier tonight...DH had to give me one of his lorazepam pills just to get me out of it. I'm doing alright now, but still in massive amounts of discomfort.

But, as for symptoms, I did get another cramp-like pain in the right side of my pelvis. Also, the veins on my breasts are so visible it's ridiculous and my Montgomery tubercles seem to be multiplying! Trying to hold out and not use one of my FRER's in the morning. Doubt I'll be able to control myself, though. It's not even about POAS anymore...it's about making sure the "Maybe Baby" is safe, because of my infection.

I'm praying for you, wannabemamaz, you and your whole family. You can't feel guilty about thinking about yourself, because you are important. Yes, having such a scary thing happen to your dad can make you feel that way...but you can't just totally write off your feelings because of guilt. That will make things worse, lovely. I will include you and your family in my nightly prayers tonight, my dear!

Gohan, oh dear..how did you get a staph infection? It sounds horrible. I hope you are ok. So good you saw the doc though and he sounds really good too. :bighug: just take it easy and rest up and get better.

9 dpo today...no tests at home..temp still up. Bbs still sore. Weird feelings in uterus area. That's it for me.

How did I get it? I'm not quite sure, but I did read that people with vascular disease are much more likely to get infected, which just a couple weeks ago I got diagnosed with Vasculitis of my brain. Or it could be because I bumped my leg on something. I dunno.

I'm about 18 minutes away from being 9dpo! Keep us posted, wishingforbub!

Gohan, oh my that is terrible! How could the ER doctor not see that!! I hope it will all turn out ok!

Tested again this morning, BFN Must have been a really nasty evap last night! I am going to complain to Clearblue, you would think at least their tests should be reliable...

I have not a clue how the ER Doctor didn't see it. I could tell there was a major problem! All I know is, that a lot of this pain could have been avoided if that Doctor hadn't been dumb.

I never use Clearblue tests, unless I use the Digital's. I've heard so much bad crap about blue dye tests, so I just avoid them altogether. I'd rather not have the letdown of a really convincing evap.

I'd like to ask you ladies a favor. If you pray, (which I know some of you do) please keep my DH and I and our possible LO in your prayers. I don't want the LO to be hurt by this infection, or myself, either. Please pray it will heal, and the pregnancy will be healthy(if I am pregnant). You ladies have become my friends! I feel like for the first time, I have true friends on this forum, not just people who R&R. We have real conversations and everything. So if any of you want to add me on Facebook, PM me and I'll give you my full name so you can add me! Thank you ladies for being so kind and friendly with me. I don't have any friends here in Seattle, so it's nice to know I have you ladies here online!

 

[weenireeni]

Hi gohan how are you feelin today? In going to have to Google staph injection when I get to work to see what it is but it sounds scary x you are in my thoughts, fingers crossed everything turns out ok.

wannabe so sorry to hear that, hope the prognosis turns out good x

I feel like im cheating being on this thread as am now even more clueless as to if ive ovulated yet. Took a pg test and obviously negative, then an opk abd got a relatively dark line, not positive though. Has anyone else had lines when its not ovulation time? Wondering if ive messed up up and not even ovulated yet!!

 

[wishingforbub]

Oh Gohan I will pray for you. I'm so sorry to hear about your vasculitis diagnosis. I pray that you and your future baby and dh will be all fine.

Weeni I have heard that in your luteal phase you can have some lh surges I think due to estrogen. But don't quote me lol. But this may explain why some women get pos opk in tww. Did u have a pos opk earlier this month? I don't use them though.

I took another hpt. hehe I knew it. Wasn't fmu and I'm 9dpo but I couldn't resist lol. I wish we got ICs here... I just bought the cheapest tests I could find lol.

I took a FRER this morning after having a dream that I got a ...but my test was clearly I'm kind of torn as to what I want now. Well, I know what I WANT, a but if I had the choice between getting my BFP this cycle, while so sick, or getting it next cycle when I'll (hopefully) be healthier, I'd chose the latter. I've just never had so many dreams about BFP's or anything like that...it's so strange for me.

9dpo for me. No big changes in my symptoms. Still about the same. My headaches haven't been as severe, but that's probably because the pain in my arms and legs overshadows the pain in my head. My right wrist is still completely paralyzed, to the point that if it's bent in any way at all, it feels like some one is breaking it in half. I can't hold my cell phone with my right hand, or pretty much anything. I can't even dress myself or put on shoes by myself. This is just awful...

 

[Geek Girl]

Oh no, Gohan! That all sounds horrible! I hope you feel better soon.

I am now officially 11 DPO. My husband asked if I wanted to test this morning, but I decided not to. I told him we could test tomorrow. The thing is, I have my hopes up, even tho I didn't want to get them up. And I dunno know how I'll feel when I see that . Because after 10 months of trying, it's really hard to believe I'll see anything else. I hope that 12 DPO will be enough for me to get an accurate reading. Supposedly my tests should be pretty accurate for detecting pregnancy early, and since my luteal phase only ever lasts 13 days, it's only taking it one or two days early. Ugh. I'm dreading this test and yet I can't stand waiting.

 

[wishingforbub]

Oh no gohan. Are you getting someone to help you at all when dh is at work? I hope you find some relief and feel much better soon. And I agree...of course you want a baby more than anything but you also need to be physically ready for it. I just hope you feel better soon. Definitely go back to doctor if you feel any worse ok.

Nothing new for me... I had a tiny nap this afternoon. Still have O type pains and sore bbs. That's it. I don't feel anything special or telltale...nothing out of the ordinary.... Oh well we will see what tomorrow brings.

How is everyone else?

At least your husband is still supportive. My husband has completely dissociated himself from this cycle. I think he thinks that if I am pregnant, I'll lose it again because of my infection. But I know it's getting better, because the pain, swelling and redness in my legs(where the infection originally started) has gotten significantly better. The sores in my mouth still won't go away and are becoming almost as painful as my arms and shoulder. As I said last night, I went into a full-blown panic attack and had to take lorazepam. All the faith I had in the beginning seems more like a memory now. I'm still trying to have faith...but it's so hard when DH is depending on MY spiritual guidance, as he is in spiritual warfare right now. So while being so sick, I am trying to be the spiritual leader and intercessor for my husband and I. Very stressful. Please continue to keep me in your prayers, ladies.

DH has had the past 2 days off. He goes back tomorrow, but my FIL had already planned to stay home all this week from work, so he's here to help me. I'm in good hands.

DH is still sleeping. It's 10:21am here in Seattle and I've been up since 8:30ish. I feel exausted...but I really can't find any comfortable position in the bed. DH always hogs the bed and I can't move him right now because of my arms and shoulder. So I basically sleep enough to be functional and get my arse up to face life. He always complained to me about me sleeping late. So now that I get up early, he sleeps late? I call BS.

Anyway, I still have 3 days before AF is supposed to show. But for some reason, Ovuline says I have 8 days! (whaaa!?) My LP has ALWAYS been 12 days. Always. So I have no clue how the figure I ovulated 9 days ago and I'll get AF on Dec. 4th! I saw the Positive OPK, I know when I ovulated. But Ovuline is screwing with my brain! I dunno...I'm so screwed up right now...

 

[wishingforbub]

Aaaw geek girl..fx'd it will be your month!! What are your symptoms today? It's so hard not to get your hopes up right..we wait for ages for the tww then have to endure it to see if we possibly are pg...it's tormenting! Lol.

Lots of to you and to all of us

 

[wishingforbub]

Aw Gohan..good that you are in good hands. Keep the faith darling. Things will get better soon. Just focus your energy on getting better. Dh is probably just worried for you. Things in the mouth tend to heal slower right cause it's always moist in there so hang in there. ..give it time.
Is ovuline like FF? I don't trust these sites 100% in the past 4/5 months I've used FF it has never predicted my af correctly or O. This is the first month their O prediction is so close to mine (1day). But they still say I'm expecting af tomorrow or the next day when in fact I have 14 day LP. Grrr...I understand your frustration. We know our bodies best anyway.

I have some sore bbs, and an increased appetite. My BBTs are still pretty high, and I have had some constipation for the past two days. The last is actually pretty unusual for me. Other than that, nothing that screams: "You're totally pregnant!" Lol Finger's x'd for all of us!

 

[lilsoybean]

Wow girls! I'm really trying to keep up with you all so sorry if I leave anyone out.

Gohan- That all sounds so terrible. You are really going through a lot right now. I hope you get all you are wishing for. It sounds like next month might be better as far as health, but I know you want that baby too. I guess just trust that God knows best. I will keep you in my prayers in the meantime.

Wannabemommaz- That is such terrible news. I'm so sorry your family has to go through such a terrible illness. I hope they have caught it in the early stages. Your family is in my thoughts as well.

Wishingforbub- Thanks for all the information! I hope that the "O" pain is a good sign for both of us!

Geek Girl- I totally understand where you are coming from. My husband and I tried for about 11 months before we got our first BFP only to lose it 10 weeks later! We were devastated. It's really hard to stay positive and keep seeing that BFN month after month. It's been 4 months and 6 days since we lost my first pregnancy and this whole time, I've just been wishing that I were pregnant again. I hate it but I guess that's just what has to happen. I don't really know if I'm making sense or helping but I do understand how you feel a little.

As for me, I think I may have started spotting today so I've been a little down. It was only a tiny, tiny bit when I wiped so I guess I could be wrong. I still don't feel like AF is coming. I also don't feel pregnant so....

I'm sure the witch will come like she always does. Boo! Still planning to test on Thursday even though I really want to tomorrow. Sorry so long. I hope everyone has a good night.

If anyone is testing tomorrow, let us know how it goes! Baby dust!!

 

[wishingforbub]

Lilsoy I hope ur spotting is a sign of IB. Fxd...
I was looking back on ff at my previous cycles' symptoms and seems like when I O on my right I tend to feel O type pain in tww...so prob not a sign for me even though I tell myself that it's different this time !

I'm officially 10 dpo I prefer even numbers lol. Hopefully it will be a good day for all of us.

Goodnight ladies. I'll message in the morning.
