2013!!!!! January Testers!(140) (40) BFPs! 9 Angels Come find a Buddy today!!!!

[nico82]

NICO- The first time the hubby and I got pregnant the first time around was when we didn't do any counting or anything. Just kind of gave up and had a good time. I think we may have bded 5 times that month, not on any particular day.

Congratulations!!!

Well I have been trying for five months and I looked at my calendars and realised I am ovulating on CD16 not CD14 and was trying too soon or too late. So I actually think I caught it spot on with only doing it once. Still in complete shock, think he/she is a miracle now.

 

[nico82]

Well I finally tested eight days after a missing AF!
In shock but happy! Can't believe we only BD'd once! What do I do now????

OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!! I am so happy for you!!!!! I have been waiting for this moment!! Half the joy in this site is exactly that, not necessarily a selfish I I I want my ( altho that's the goal) but an honest true sincere happiness when we see others get theirs! And to read all the stories, symptoms, laughter and tears that go with each little angel that's created. I am so happy for you I can't even tell you enough!! I pray I get a as well so we can be bump buddies cuz I have really enjoyed this journey with so many of you!! I feel like a proud auntie or something lol. CONGRATS LOVE!!!!!!

Good morning gals!
Got my solid CH's today BUT, had a serious FBR; I have NEVER had one even close to this significant. Hopefully this difference is a good thing, not that my body is playing games with me...

Ok so call me blonde but what does CH and FBR stand for?

Morning ladies
Im 11dpo today & so far no symptoms out of the norm. I have had sore boobs since friday which keep getting worse but I also get that when AF is due. Hope everyone has a safe & Happy New Year!

Crosshairs, the solid red lines on Fertility friend chart.
Fall back rise- Sometimes the one day drop in temp, do to an estrogen surge.

 

[AmaryllisRed]

Huuuuge congrats, nico!!! See, what did you have to be afraid of?

 

[AmaryllisRed]

Oh my gosh, loro, the fallback rise...
Me, too!!
Or at least, I *think* it is? I've never had one before, either! or at least not like this... It's been dipping for three days. Does a fallback rise only last one day?

 

[Tess2012]

Can I join in? Ill be tesing Jan 7th, if I can hold off that long. My chart has me a tiny bit excited this time around, I've never had a temp spike like this one before!

Hi everyone! Hope you are all well.

Big congrats to the ladies that got BFPs!! So sorry to those the witch got!

Question: DH and I were going to wait until I graduate and get a job in May to start TTC again after our chemical last week for insurance reasons. BUT, he is now hinting about maybe trying again sooner than that, and I was curious about chemical pregnancies. I have researched, but not found a definitive answer... I usually have a 10 day LP, but I was 13 DPO when I started getting my BFPs last week. I started bleeding the same day. Should I begin a supplement like B Complex or is it most likely that this chemical was not bc of short LP since my period didnt come until 13 dpo. I hope this makes sense... I figured if my 10 day LP was to blame, I would've gotten my period at 10 or 11DPO... and maybe the chemical was just due to a fetal abnormality or something.. can anyone help?? Thanks so much.

I really don't think it does.... Though I am not a Doc, just a gut feeling. Most Chemical PG are because the egg does not form properly., or doesn't settle in far enough. In other words it wasn't meant to be. Not healthy. I hope this helps. I am sure that you will get you bundle soon enough!!

 

[lorojovanos]

As far as I know, a FBR is only one day, but I'm not super experienced in it...

I don't really know the answer either but I always thought a short LP made it impossible for the egg to implant so you would never have gotten a positive pregnancy test in the first place. So basically I'm thinking since you did get the positive, the loss wouldn't have been due to the short LP. I honestly have no idea though. However, I would say it would be a good idea to try and lengthen you LP with a supplement. Perhaps that has prevented you from getting pregnant in other cycles. Fingers crossed for you and lots of baby dust.

Put me down for January 6 (10dpo).
I can't believe how many familiar names are still floating around from last winter when I first started this whole TTC thing! I really do hope everyone gets what they truly want sooner rather than later.
MrsMM - HUGE CONGRATS! You've had quite the journey to get here.

I never imaged I'd still be here after a full year. At least DH and I are now 'under investigation'. Just waiting for CD24 bloods, and we'll go back to the clinic for all the results (SA, HSG, etc). It's progress I suppose. That being said, for the first time in a LONG TIME I actually feel really positive about this cycle. I O'ed right over Christmas, and I don't know.. it just felt *different*. Although, if there is one thing I DO know, the better you feel, the harder you fall.

Good luck everyone, and happy New Year!

Hey may I join? I'm currently in the TWW on CD 25 at 12 DPO. Test this morning was a BFN and had a temp drop, so I'm waiting on AF to bring in the New Year .

I had a MMC almost 8 months ago @ 12 weeks. Since then my cycles have been shorter than pre pregnancy, anywhere from 22-25 days.

Ill be testing again in a few days if AF stays away. Otherwise my next test date will be around the 25th of this month.

 

[Stevi11]

Jan 27th for me, please!

 

[kellymassage]

January 12 for me as well.

We are nearing a year too and in the process of having all the testing done. Did you have your hsg this cycle? Lots of people get their bfp after I'm hoping to get mine done at the start of next cycle

Yeah, I had it done about 2 weeks ago. It showed all clear, so I don't know that it will have the same 'clearing out' function as other women. Either way, I'm hoping.
My advice: DON'T read about other people's experience with it. I read tons of TERRIBLE comments, and went in almost paralyzed with anxiety. It really wasn't that bad - uncomfortable yes, but not really any more so than a pap. I only had a tiny bit of cramping that lasted literally a second, and the whole procedure was done in about 5 minutes. Good luck with it - hope it does the trick and we can celebrate BFP's together!
