35 & ttc #2....buddies?

[DenyseGiguere]

Hi Denyse - Glad to hear AF has left you. Good luck this cycle.

AFM: Today I am 7dpo and go for my progesterone test. I'm hoping for a good high number! This is my first cycle of Femara and I feel way different than on any of my cycles of Clomid so I just don't really have a feeling on how this cycle is going. I can't wait to start testing.

Good luck hun!

Hi everyone I'd like to join you guys if you will?

We have started ttc nr 2 since July our little boy is just 10 months but im no spring chicken anymore and with him it took 1,5 years. Several cycles of Clomifen and finally IUI did the trick! we were unexplained so have no idea why naturally it wouldnt work

Welcome and lots of

 

[Mrs W 11]

Welcome asryellah, good luck this cycle!

I had my progesterone test today. The doctor called me a little while ago and said that the results came back at 0.8, no ovulation. She said she was surprised since my u/s looked like I had and that everything was good. She is wanting to give my body a few weeks for AF to arrive and if not she will give me Provera to start it and then we will do one more round of Femara before she moves me on to a specialist. I'm not sure my DH and I will go to the specialist since it will be quite expensive and we do have one child together. I'm completely crushed. On Clomid, I ovulated every time but my PCOS is so bad that the Clomid almost made me hyper stimulated, so no more Clomid for me. Now I just wait for AF to arrive and my DH and I need to have a serious conversation about how we want to go forward if the next round doesn't work.

MrsW- Yes, a week feels like forever when waiting to test!!!!

Denyse- This has to be the lucky cycle!!!! Good luck!!!

Skarcm- Sorry to hear you did not get good news. I am sure you are going through a ton of emotions right now. I hope the medicine works and that you and DH do not have to make that tough decision.

Asry- Welcome! Well, hopefully it will not take as long TTC number 2! Can always hope, right??

Well ladies, AF came yesterday. I actually had some hope that maybe we got lucky the first time around! I have to take progesterone due to LPD and 9dpo came and went (BFN) 10dpo came and went (BFN) then 11dpo came and went (BFN).....then AF. The crazy thing, is that when I was ttc the first time my LP was NEVER past 9-10 (10 if I was lucky) even iwth the progesterone. I am still BFing too, so I am surprised (but glad) that my LP is longer. So, now I am waiting for it to end and then back to testing for my OV date!

 

[DenyseGiguere]

3 days after AF's departure, I started spotting pinkish Has anyone ever experienced this? I took an OPK, but I'm only CD10. It's negative, but looks like it might be positive in a few days.

 

[Asryellah]

Thanks for the warm welcomes Ladies and sorry to hear bad news some of you had that damned witch!!
scarcm ..have you found out if any of the natural remedies would help you with pcos? I mean if you will not go for a specialist. Like Vitex is supposed to be natures Clomifen, I did try that but for only one cycle and it got messed up so im no position to say either way as its supposed to be used for atleast 3 months. Dunno if with pcos its helpful, but maybe you can find some success stories in the net?

I actually went to see my obgyn yesterday to get checked up and plan for a IUI for January im exited! We dont want to wait for long this time, half a year then to the clinic! Prices are high but im from Finland and what I've chatted here it seems like they are low compared to other countries.

 

[lysh]

Denyse- I sometimes get delayed or early spotting...it is annoying.

Asry- Good luck..it is hard waiting I am sure.....hopefully it will all work out!!!

How is everyone else?

At the tail end of AF, waiting now for OV time!

 

[skarcm2010]

Denyse: how are you doing?

lysh: I don't know what is worse, waiting to O or the TWW. Hang in there.

AFM: I had some weird cm and cramps last week and emailed my doctor to see if it was possible that I was ovulating late. She replied that she thought that was a possibility. So, now I wait to see what the heck the cycle brings me.

 

[DenyseGiguere]

I am doing good hun, how are you?

I took an OPK this morning and it was the pretty close to positive. Also started having a few fluttering feelings near my uterus plus been having some watery CM, so hopefully it's all a good sign! We bd'd last night, think we might give it another try tonight. Been having such a good day with my boys today. Now I'm cooking dinner then going to spend the evening watching hockey with them. Even making some blue raspberry jello for dessert Simple I know, but my son loves jello!

How is everyone else?

 

[Asryellah]

Im getting closer to O aswell havent gotten on yet, hopefully today...as its Fathers day here

Anyone soon testing? Hopefully we will get some good news soon

 

[skarcm2010]

How is everyone doing?

I asked my doctor if she would reorder my progesterone test since my boobs had been hurting, which usually happens after O. She ordered it, I had it done yesterday and today I got my test results back. I ovulated, woo hoo! We don't know exactly what day, but we know it happened. So now I just wait to see what this cycle brings me.

[Asryellah]

Yay for ovulating scarcm!

I started having O pains yesterday so I guess i'll be o'ing later today tomorrow. We did yesterday befor bed, but won't be able today as OH is going out with the guys and will be hungover tomorrow and be totally useless so I just have to hope these guys will make it to the ovulation....

Happy weekend

 

[DenyseGiguere]

How's everyone doing today? Happy Friday everyone!

Pretty sure I ovulated yesterday...we got 6 good tries in this cycle, hopefully we get lucky!

Asryellah: good luck in the TWW.

AFM: I took a HPT on Monday and it was negative, but I don't really know when I ovulated. I am planning on taking another test tomorrow. We will just see what that brings.

 

[DenyseGiguere]

Good to hear from you ladies!

I'm still in the 2ww...about 6-7 dpo. No symptoms at all. Maybe that's a blessing. No cramps really or anything I normally get. I'll probably start testing tomorrow, even though I promised myself I'd hold out until Saturday lol.

 

[Asryellah]

Oh Yay Danyse! We are almost the same dpos, im just a bit behind..
Im thinking of starting to test at dpo 10
