<3 <3 LOTS OF LOVE & BFPS <3 <3 February Testing Thread

[Esperanza1000]

Thanks everyone for your input re what you eat in the TWW. I guess again it's so personal. Not eating anything on the list is my way of acting "as if" and trying to impress my subconscious with the idea.. But it's only been 3 months - ask me again in another 3!

The holiday one is a toughie. I know a couple of people who MC'd after flying in the first trimester, so I've put flying plans on hold this year. But it's so true about not putting your life on hold. Hoping to find a destination we can drive or train to for mid year, as I need something to look forward to other than another BFN..

Can I just say props to all of you who have been on this journey before and for longer than me. I feel like such a newbie and I can already tell how strong and how much grace you all have. It's an honour to be in your thread

Wishing everyone a big O day OPKs and a BFP.

Huge hugs Katie

I did write a really long message yesterday, including everyone, but the storm knocked out my electric before I could send it! Grrr

Sorry I have been mia, been a crazy week, all starting with the death of my PC, the mad dash across the country to buy a new one, that resulted in me buying something not suitable, then having to borrow a mac from a friend of a friend! Between all that, the storms have been knocking out my electric, heating system acting up, my internet connection going awaol all the time and everything else I haven't had time to take a breath!

I was at my GP on Friday for day 21 progesterone bloods, to take to the fertility clinic in 2 weeks... we were chatting about progesterone supplements and my GP is dead against it!!

Anyway, now the PC/Mac madness is over, hopefully the electric will stay on and I can keep up with all of you!

Atty-Hey!! Glad you got your computer back up. We missed you!!

Was your doctor against Progesterone supplements for you or everybody, and why?

In the meantime, your chart is looking great, as usual.

Oh and Radkat, I had a super high jump this morning and guess what? No wool socks. My theory was blown out of the water. hee hee.

 

[Tagra]

Please put me in Feb 14, if i'm allowed by AF to test!

Thanks.

Whoa, Terri- nice temp jump!!

 

[terripeachy]

Thanks! It's freaking me out a bit because a) I'm not sick, b) this is the highest my temp has ever been since tracking c) it's SO early and d) Ffoe has me ovulating on CD15, and our BD timing wasn't the best it could be. I'm still feeling good, but I think I'm going to be a ball of nerves the next few weeks.

I only drank two beers and two jello shots during the game, and we were at the bar for 4.5 hours so that is pretty impressive as far as I'm concerned! hee hee. I LOVE jello shots.

What a morning, after spending 2 weeks trying to persuade my OH to go the GP to get his bloods done for the fertility clinic, I dragged him kicking and screaming down to the GPs. Well I sent him in with the letter from the clinic as to which tests were required and waited in the car! He comes out 15 mins later with his bloods in an envelope. Apparently we had to drive them to my local hospital as the courier dosen't do Mondays? Well were driving the 40K to the hospital when I asked him did he show the letter?

Nope....

So I ask did he tell the doc what tests....

NO!!!

So we get to the lab at the hospital and ask the clerk to check the blood vials. Yep he was being tested for cholesterol, liver and iron... Not one thing that the fertility clinic wants! MEN!!!!!
So we had the clerk ring the doc and we arranged for tomorrow morning now! If his tests are not back in time I will get a wee bit annoyed to say the least!

As to my chart as usual it always looks good LOL! Although I did get the message this morning that I went triphasic on day 20!

How frustrating! *sigh* Guys. Sounds a little like my DH- he is a sweetie, but a bit on the scatter-brained side.
Triphasic! Awesome! Will be

 

[Sis4Us]

Yay Milty I'll Add U!!!

 

[kfs1]

So sorry Katie.

 

[Sis4Us]

Added Tagra Welcome!!!

 

[Sis4Us]

My temps is freaking me out too Terri usually don't get that temp until later in the TWW!!!

My boobs are HUGE and killin me so I have more P this cycle for sure!!

 

[Wish4another1]

Older, Sis, Atty and Terri - these are some awesome temps and charts...
I am thinking I will be the only one left to start a March thread!!!! not complaining - would love to see all of you ladies with your BFP in the month of love!!!!

Katie - hope you are doing ok today!

stayed in last night, watched super bowl and the DH even made dinner (yummy homemade nachos!! no wings!!)

Screaming positive OPK this morning... so we will be staying in tonight too I'm really hoping those find their way to miss eggy... - I really thought my temp would dip today - but I slept horribly... maybe it will just shoot up tomorrow?? who knows....

raging snowstorm headed our way for tomorrow/Wednesday I really want winter to end!!!!

 

[moni77]

Got through them. Welcome and FXed to the newbies!! Sorry Katie - did you end up with full blown AF?

AFM - AF finally arrived yesterday - very light but getting better today. So I am counting yesterday as CD 1

I went to the doctors today - no answers as to why such a long luteal. I do have a small 3 cm cyst on the left side - but he thinks it is not enough to stop this cycle. Waiting on the blood work. He is keeping the meds the same for now. With my quick maturation, we might still get the IUI in before I leave - otherwise we try naturally while on vacation.

So put me down for testing on the 27th....

 

[Sis4Us]

Sorry about AF but yay for a new cycle will Add u Moni!!!

 

[terripeachy]

Wish-Woohoo on the blaring +. Yeah! I love nachos, and homemade ones are even better. Do you put beans on them? Yum yum.. The snow just started here and it's supposed to snow all day. I hope not because I do NOT want to be stuck at work or on the highway watching people get into accidents.

Sis-I guess the P is just firing on all cylinders!! hee hee. I don't have any boob soreness or anything, but I think that's a good sign for you. Hope it lasts! hee hee.

moni-Sorry AF came but glad she came ONLY because it took forever last time and was such a pain, so at least your cycle is somewhat regular this time around. When is your vacation?

 

[Sis4Us]

I'm no going to get Ahead of myself Terri we will see in 11 Days!!!

 

[battyatty]

I totally understand P and sore boobs, last month I was in agony!
I think my cycles are actually evening out... my cycles have been getting longer and longer since I removed my IUD last August. I also think my P is getting higher with each cycles as I now get more and more symptoms each month!

I have had sore gums now for 4 days, total agony... they are giving me headaches and can barely eat.... getting tired of it now, been gurgling with salty water... urgh....

Good luck with gettin' 'er done!!
My chart is actually a little different this month...later O by two days and lower temps. Not so sure this is a good quality egg.
