[MrsPTTC]

Woo hoo cupcake, PUPO with twinnies wow! Sending you lots of sticky baby x

Not sure about testing time, when did you start???

I poas at 3dpt to make sure the trigger was gone (it was), at 6dpt (bfn) and at 9dpt (bfp )

Would you use a hot water bottle in the tww??

 

[GettingBroody]

I did because I was still quite sore and my acupuncturist recommended keeping the area warm to encourage blood flow to the uterus. My FS didn't say anything either way but I've heard that other FSs advise against excess heat so I always made sure it was just nice and warm rather than hot... Hope that helps! How do you feel?

 

[cupcakesarah]

Worried because I used hot water bottles this afternoon and then hubby questioned it and then looked on the Internet and found people saying not to. In the info given from the clinic they say nothing about baths or hot water bottles. They were not really hot and I was lying on my side most of the time. Just worried I ruined my chances at the first hurdle. Argggggghhh

 

[GettingBroody]

I wouldn't worry at all. I used them almost every day from about lunchtime on if I was at home...

Well done cupcake ! The technical stress is over now into the 2ww which is another kettle of fish!!! I hope you try to relax but it will be hard.
Re: hot water bottle I remember reading someone's advice that was ' don't do or NOT do anything that you will later regret or feel guilty about' .
I really believe that the emby which will work will stick no matter what x

Hello ladies! I hope everyone is well...
We have decided to have an iui this cycle. So I am now on 100mg clomid and will start monitoring my follies sometime next week. I feel a bit nervous about the whole procedure but I am trying not to think a lot about it and keep exercising a lot...

 

[GettingBroody]

Good luck Brassy!!!!

 

[cupcakesarah]

Good luck for the IUI Brassy.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Good luck brassy, hope the IUI works first time! x

Hi girls. I don't know quite how to say this. After 27 months and 2 failed iuis I got my very first BFP today !!!!!!! Natural. Didnt even technically try. A miracle in every way !!!!

I wasn't feeling well all week and I stayed home from work on Wednesday I think. And started to realize af hadn't showed and it was like day 41. I was like that's weird. Didnt do anything. And then today (day 46) I took a first response test.

Absolutely in shock.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Ahhhhh MrsG!!!! Sooo pleased for you Hun! Amazing its happened naturally after all this time! Test pics please! x

 

[cupcakesarah]

Oh MrsG that's amazing!!!! Congratulations, so happy for you.

 

[mk8]

Yeahhhhhhhhhhh! Mrs G! That is utterly awesome! Fantastic news honey! Oh my goodness. Yeahhhhhhhhhh!

 

[GettingBroody]

OHMYGOD MRSG!!!! That is such fantastic news!!!! I am absolutely over the moon for you!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! How far along do you think you are? How do you feel? Details please!!!! Wooooooohooooooooo!!!!

 

[brassy]

That's great news MrsG!!!! I am so happy for you! Congrats!!!

 

[MrsG2010]

I'm not sure how far along I am. Online calculators tell me 7
Weeks with due date of 10/9. However you girls know I ovulate a week later than normal so does that mean I might be 6 weeks ?

I'm feeling guilty because i hadnt been taking prenatals over the last few months. I didnt stop on purpose but once i mentally shut off ttc i forgot about the vitamins.

Im going to call obgyn tomorrow.

I wanted to mention DH had his infected tooth worked on in December. I think it's a coincidence ?!

 

[MrsG2010]

Trying to add pic.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Lovely BFP lines mrsG! The docs will still go off your LMP so it doesn't really matter when you ovulated though they'll then change your date after your scan. So excited for you! I wouldn't worry about your pre-natals, think of all the women who get preggo by accident & all ends up well!

How's our PUPO cupcake doing?
