27 TTC #1 looking for a buddy

[lol2811]

That is the worst bit, the waiting and not knowing. Would be amazing if you could know straight after ovulation if it had worked or not.

 

[DrGomps]

I would accept straight after implantation!!

 

[lol2811]

Me too, that would be great!

 

[DrGomps]

feeling kind of blue today. Not as much to do at work and my boss was being super critical today. Just feel like I can't do anything right, including getting pregnant.

 

[DrGomps]

probably just emotional.

 

[lol2811]

That could be a good sign!! Fingers crossed!!!

I hate days like that though, i had it the other day. I was cooking dinner and it went wrong and I got all upset. DH said dont worry about it but i just snapped saying no wonder I cant make a baby I cant even make the dinner. So silly but at the time seemed like the end of the world.

 

[DrGomps]

so I have some tentative goodnews...got the faintest of a this morning with fmu on a clearblue +/- and an internet 10 miu dipstick.

both are known to have evaps, so I am skeptical, but they showed up right away.
Here's hoping this is the first of a !!!

 

[lol2811]

Ooooo i see them!!!! Congrats

 

[DrGomps]

I am still skeptical...but hopefully this is the first of many!!

 

[DrGomps]

how are you feeling today hun?

 

[lol2811]

Fingers crossed they just keep getting darker for you!!!

I am just trying to concentrate on being positive for this cycle. I think once AF is over might start straight away BD'ing every other day. Im not sure if i will ov on or around CD15 again like last cycle or if it will go back to CD17/18. Was thinking round CD12 or 13 start BD'ing everyday until ive ov'd. I want to make sure I catch that egg this month.

 

[DrGomps]

I know what you mean about trying to stay positive. Its hard after bfn after bfn. Your BD plan sounds good. I noticed you are doing SMEP, that means preseed and softcups as well as OPKs and bbt? I was feeling yesterday that if this cycle was not successful that I was going to try to take a needed break...feel like I am going insane...but at the same time charting, opks etc makes me feel like I am somewhat in control of whats happening.

 

[lol2811]

I'm not doing the preseed or softcups don't think I really need them. I thought about taking a break from charting but then I know I would spend the time worrying about whether I had ovulated or not.

 

[DrGomps]

I am not a fan of softcups or preseed (DH loathes preseed). i found that I have had a decent amount of CM despite being on clomid, but I still took robitussin and would probably do it again if I have to repeat another cycle.

 

[jeepprincess]

Congrats DRGomps looks like a to me....

 

[DrGomps]

Thanks jeepprincess...I am being cautiously optimistic about it.

 

[DrGomps]

how are you doing jeep princess? haven't seen you on here as much... don't be a stranger.

 

[DrGomps]

what are your ladies plans for the weekend...I have the baby shower this evening then tomorrow will most likely have to do some experiments (pretty sure my mice will be giving birth). Also want to do some organizing. Sunday I am supposed to go to spa castle with some girlfriends...but I may have to be careful depending on whether or not I am pg!

 

[lol2811]

I am taking epo and that seems to do the trick for my cm so think i will just stick with that.

Told DH last night that i hope he has lots of energy this month as i want that BFP. Told him as soon as AF finishes (only spotting today) we will be at it every other day and then i think around CD13 we will start every day. Its difficult as I am not sure when i will ovulate this cycle. Last cycle was CD15 but the cycles before that were CD18 so want to make sure I cover my bases as I know there is a higher percentage of conceiving before ovulation rather than on the day of.

Not got a lot planned this weekend. DH is working all day today so just come to see my mum and hopefully my sister will pop over with my nephews. Then think it could be a lazy day tomorrow.

We have planned to go for a long weekend on a couple weeks so I am hoping that will help me to relax enough and not stress so a positive will be more likely.

 

[DrGomps]
