27 TTC #1 looking for a buddy

[DrGomps]

Has DH gone for sperm analysis?? It will be such a relief for you to know the situation. In all likelihood everything is fine, it sometimes just takes awhile. Fx'ed that this is your month!!

Moodiness has settled in here...been such a grump, feel really bad for DH. Think its because i have been working long hours and am just exhausted all the time.

 

[lol2811]

Im sure DH understands, you are bound to get a little grumpy with all that is going on inside.

We have got the doctors this evening, not sure what the procedure will be. Think there are some forms etc that need filling in for the analysis but not sure if it gets done at the GP's or we have to go somewhere else.

 

[jeepprincess]

Hey ladies! I guess the little break from stress did the trick I'm PREGNANT!!!! Sooo excited but yet soooo nervous...we don't have our first apt. until the 15 of April...seems like soooo far away.

 

[DrGomps]

congrats jeep princess!! Wondering where you went...when are you due??

 

[DrGomps]

Charlotte, how did the procedure gO?? details!!

Jeepprincess, what did you do or not do this cycle that you got pg?

 

[lol2811]

Congrats jeepprincess!!!!! I need to catch up!

Well went to doctors last night, he filled in the form and DH has to phone the hospital to arrange when to take his sample down to them. As he has to abstain from and BD for 3 days prior he is going to arrange to take it down next week when I am on my course.

I honestly dont think this cycle is going to be successful. Im on CD11 today, got highs on my CBFM but i go away on sunday until friday and i dont think i am going to get my 2 peaks before then.

 

[DrGomps]

Charlotte, how frustrating...is there anyway he can come down and visit you when you reach your peak?

 

[lol2811]

Yeah hopefully. It is about 2 and a half hours away so he could drive and see me, just feel abit mean making him drive a 5 hour round trip.

 

[jeepprincess]

Thanks guys!

Andrea: This cycle I decided not to temp and chart, which in itself was a huge reflief bc that gets to be a little stressful. We also wasn't stressing over the house hunting stuff as much, and I also kinda had my mind wrapped around that we would probably have to end up seeing a specialist bc of that stupid sperm test thing. I guess I just didn't worry about it. It was kinda strange bc the last time when I was charting i O'd on cd17 or 18, but this time I woke up from a really strange dream and went to the bathroom and saw that I had 1 opk left sitting on the floor and said what the heck, I pee'd on it and it was positive...I went and counted the days and it was cd14. We weren't really paying attention much when we were bding, but it seemed to me like it was everyother or less...we didn't make it a chore ya know....but after that positive opk we did that day and the next couple days. Then when I ended up testing was on a monday bc I usually start on sunday or tuesday. I woke up at 3 in the morning sweating and couldnt fall back asleep finally I did and woke up at 630 to get ready for work, well when I went to the bathroom I thought what the heck, I just had a weird feeling. I used a cheapo dip stick and the whole time was thinking..why in the world am I testing, I'm not pregnant. I finished up and then looked at the little strip and there it was...a tiny faint line...I went into the bedroom and was like "ummm babe...he said, What whats wrong? and I said....I think I might be pregnant...hehe he shot up in the bed and said REALLY?" let me see...so of course he looked and said...nah its too faint I almost don't see it. So I had a Clear blue digital and figured I would try to squeeze a few drops out...which is all I could do...bc I didn't think it was going to be enough pee...but 2seconds later it said PREGNANT I have been so use to seeing the NOT pregnant that seeing that was a complete shock....now its just a waiting game...trying not to be overly excited just incase something happens, but we are enjoying it

My calculations is that I'm due Nov. 22nd First apt. isn't until the 15th..which seems like forever....How is your pregnancy so far?

p.s. sorry I dissappeared...which was another thing I did not do this last cycle was obsess over these websites...I just kinda let go of all of it...really helped with my anxiety...

Sorry for the book

 

[lol2811]

So pleased for you.

I have been backing off of the forum, only really paying attention to this thread as I quite like chatting. I wasnt going to temp etc this month but I am as I need to know exactly when I ov so I can arrange for my blood test, but I have decided that next month (hopefully there wont be a next month but being realistic) I am not going to temp and we will just BD every other day throughout the month.

I am hoping that the blood test will confirm I am in fact ov'ing and so that will take the pressure off of that and that DH SA will come back all clear, then if we just BD everyother day or there abouts there will be no need to chart as my cycles seem pretty regular.

 

[DrGomps]

Thanks for sharing your story jeepprincess...hope you will be on here more as you are pregnant now!! How are you feeling? Any symptoms!!!
Its so funny that you squeezed out some pee for a clear blue digi, because i did the same thing....I hate the faintest of positives at 9DPO (IC and clear blue +/-). DH didn't believe them so the next day I used Frer and bfp!! But DH would probably not see that line so I squeezed some out for the digi and voila!! pregnant!! I actually woke him up to show him and he was so tired he said he didn't see a line...I had to tell him that it was a word not a line!! LOL.

My pregnancy has been fine, so far...I had bleeding during the pap at my first exam which was scary and since I had long cycles they scheduled me for my u/s too early and scared me because there was no heartbeat, but saw the heartbeat at 6 weeks 6 days. You work as a ultrasound tech right??? have you had a peak yet?? Hehehe. I would do that everyday if I could (know its not good for the baby to do it too much). Also I got a fetal doppler...think I have found the heartbeat but can't really hear it. Know its probably too early. I have my next appt in alittle less then 2 weeks to hear the heartbeat on the doppler with the Dr. My next scan is at 13 weeks (nuchal test for downs). Just happy to have more pics of my bean!! I started a diary with more detail...

Charlotte...LOL...but if it gets you a baby its worth it right?? Can he stay the night?? When do you leave??

 

[DrGomps]

oh and hking got her too.

Jeepprincess you should join the chrysanthemums group.

 

[Ladyzara]

Hi guys, it all sounds great Charlotte I wish they had tested my dh that early

Andrea must be amazing to feel something growing inside

Well I just finished a long week of nights and I intend to enjoy the lovely weather this weekend!! I'm now on cd 28 so have another 6 days till af arrives my best friend told me on Monday that she is expecting which means I am now the only one in my little circle of friends that doesn't have a child!!!!!! Oh well there's always hope

 

[DrGomps]

Fx'ed for you ladyzara, lord knows you deserve a !!!

And yes, its absolutely nuts to have something growing inside...its nuts to see my belly sticking out like it is. I am eager to be at the point where I can detect movement!!

ANywho...ladies...I am off to stare at neurons in a dark room under a microscope for the rest of the day...usually need lots of coffee to get through this task, but seeing how that is not a possibility we will see how it goes.

 

[lol2811]

He could stay but not sure if he will as he would have to get up really early to get back for work, oh well guess just have to see what happens.

 

[DrGomps]

charlotte, you leave today?? For how long?

 

[lol2811]

Tomorrow till friday

 

[DrGomps]

if you do it alot before you go, you could have enough to fertilize once you reach your peak...so you aren't totally out of the game.

No, I wish I was an ultrasound tech, but I'm an xray tech...I would be looking for sure

I feel pretty good, no vomitting yet, just some nausea and my boobs are very tender. I feel like this is going to be the longest 9 months bc I'm soooo nervous...heheh I just want everything to be ok.

 

[DrGomps]

yeah...I got so used to seeing my baby every week!! I want another scan!! i have to wait another week and half to see my dr where she will use the doppler. I have tried using the doppler with no luck...though I heard its rare to hear it before 10 weeks...but possible. SO now I am worrying unnecessarily that something is not right. Ugh....I am so PARANOID!!! I know the chances are miscarriage are much less after detecting a heartbeat. But i still worry. At least I am still having loads of symptoms which is a comfort...ms yesterday like no other...riding the subway in NYC with all the smells didn't help!!
