46 BFPS and Counting -TTC Lucky Support Thread - newbies welcome!

[beemeck]

ahhh hello girls! I'll try and catch up best I can.....

jgo - yay for TWW and good timing on inseminations

smille - fx for you too! 10 dpo is early, especially with that nice long LP! really can't wait to see a BFP after those softcups

ciz and country - sorry girls, not seeing anything

texas - I might actually guess that you O'ed on CD 14? at least with my chart I tend to O sometime on the day of the dip, but it might be different for everyone. either way - def in the TWW now and can't wait to see clomid giving you that bfp you deserve!

camp - hi girl we are just chugging along, aren't we? Fertile window coming up faster than I thought it would. I'm sorry you have been feeling down - I'm right there with you. our chances are increased now since we have time on our side.

welcome peanut, future and anyone else I missed - I think I added everyone successfully but let me know if I've missed you!

mommy - that is an ADORABLE scan. how can that little one look so CUTE already

trr - how are you feeling girl??

wannab - same to you! I'll catch up with you more on my journal

gina - FX for you! hope those tests come in asap

trixie - so glad that you are in the TWW with a great looking chart too! I agree with jgo, I would take the first temp. but post O temps can be all over the place anyway. Your DH sounds just like mine - he is OBSESSED with charting, symptoms, TTC etc. But it actually drives me nuts. It's just too much and after all this time I just feel like I am constantly letting him down. However I recently came across a good solution. I love FF and it is def my fave app, but I got the app Glow and you can add your partner too so they can follow along AND track their own symptoms. He loves it! so check it out!

conundrum - yay girl! I can't wait for you to add to the next dose of BFPS plus your little girl is just too cute - you need to make another!

phew. AFM - been super busy. Also feeling really down. less so about the months of BFNS and more so about the baby I lost. With the due date getting close, it's been devastating. I can't believe I would have been holding my little one next month. So I've just been trying to stay busy and keep my mind off it the best I can. If there is any good to come out of it, it's been a good distraction for TTC. I haven't been obsessing over my cycle at all! Keeping it very casual and def sticking to our every other day plan. I will start opks today just because knowledge is power, right? In the past 2+ years that I've tracked my O, I've Oed on CD 11 three times (including the month of my BFP), so it's definitely a possibility that it could be go time soon At least I hope so. EWCM started today, but it also started way early last month too. I feel a lot calmer than I have in past months, so let's get this BFP frenzy back up and running! It's been too long since our last one

 

[Trr]

Feeling great. No symptoms. Which is concerning but I'm new still.

Waiting in betas to see if they are doubling so I should know something tonight. Starting off low but we will see what the numbers are doing. Ultrasound booked for Thursday next week so maybe I'll see bean.
Otherwise just waiting it out.

GL with ovulation time- bee! And sorry you are feeling so down. All things crossed for you and everyone else.

 

[Conundrum]

Bee I am so sorry. I wish I could say something a lot more comforting but know I am sending some virtual hugs your way girl.

Will do an early test on the 16th (my birthday) know it is too early but hopefully everything in the universe will align for that three minute window, lmbo. Shy is a card just started singing the hakuna matata song and with that southern drawl, priceless.

Really good to have you back, and sending some baby dust your way

 

[campn]

My sweet sweet bee! I was wondering about you! Almost sent you a message to but figured maybe you wanted to be distracted from TTC for a bit sorry it's been hard, I can only imagine how you feel now with your due date approaching. I know this has been a very long journey for you, but I feel like it's about to end with a BFP! I can almost see it if I squint hard enough! I'm so glad you're back

I'm starting to feel happy again, now with AF blues gone. I'm trying to stay occupied and read more books. The Hobbit fans anyone!?

I just ordered preseed and soft cups, hopefully they'll be here just in time.

Really other than my sporadic nausea and spotting up until 12 weeks I didn't even feel pregnant. I'm sure your numbers will have doubled by now. Try not to worry I know it's hard!


Drum- Fx for you hun! And happy birthday! My birthday month too!

 

[TTCBabyG2015]

Just wanted to pop in and say hi to you ladies. I'm still stalking and hanging around because I know I'll see all those beautiful BFP's from you girls soon. to all

So sweet of you! You ladies are all so incredible and I love this thread!

 

[beemeck]

you ladies are seriously the best!

everyone said it so perfectly when describing how warm and supporting this thread is. I really wanted to extend it since you're right jgo, we are in with mainly the same women month after month so it's nice to stick together and continue to get updates on our BFP ladies too

camp - I read all the time! but no, nothing like the hobbit. That's my DH's thing. I read all kinds of novels, but am currently reading a mystery. I loooove mysteries. I find when a book is REALLY good, it takes my mind off of things. otherwise, I can't get the darn thing to shut off! so glad you are feeling better. Thanks for thinking about me. I was lurking but honestly just too busy for any proper responses!

drum - that sounds seriously adorable. Love her name too and the nickname shy. as camp would say - "heart eyes"

trr - you'll be in my thoughts today - can't wait to see those numbers going up and up

just took my opk and it is very negative. I guess it could be more negative - there is a second line, but it's def faint. So I might skip tomorrow altogether. Last month it def didn't sneak up on me. It danced around almost positive forevs. And I don't feel obsessive about any of this right now so, meh, no opk tomorrow and we will BD as planned for the start of my fertile window. booked myself a massage tomorrow so I can go into it "stress-free".

I just didn't expect the approaching due date to hit me so hard. Since baby was due at xmas, I had developed all sorts of holiday fantasies involving santa bringing me my baby down my chimney as opposed to through my cervix it just felt so magical - xmas baby! so I started to listen to xmas music (I love it and it's so cold here ) and it just started the grieving process all over again. It will be a rough holiday season, but if I'm REALLY lucky, I'll get a BFP to help me along. FX for us all and so many hugs for all of the wonderful support

 

[Conundrum]

Trr I hope your scan goes well and lo gives you some amazing pictures. I am sorry I missed your post but fingers crossed for you.

Campn not too big into the hobbit, but I have read the book, and LOR series. Got really big into Sanderson and Ruthfuss for a bit but after forcing myself to finish the Mistborn series in a week my reading has been sated lol.

Bee you'll have your BFP, too much babydust on this thread not to. You deserve it hon, really. You'll get threw this, if you ever need to vent we're here.

As for Shy's name I'm am an Ashley, and I went for as uncommon as possible. Since the last time her name was popular here was 1880 my personal love for it just grew.

 

[mommyxofxone]

Oh bee I'm so sorry you're feeling down. Thinking of you Hun

 

[jGo_18]

oh how i love this thread!
Bee - sooo many hugs too you, i'm so sorry to see you feeling blue.

afm: 6dpo and not much to report. i'm avoiding symptom spotting as best i can. been pretty crampy the past few days, super emotional today, my bladder feels contently full today/kinda pained/frequent trips to the loo (feels borderline like a UTI). but ya know, literally every 'symptom' i feel, i immediately write it off as something else. i guess maybe i've finally learned to stop thinking everything means something.
i did have one (tmi) question - today's CM has been stretchy like EWCM but it's not clear... its sort of creamy/yellow/snotty. what would you mark that as? FF gives basically creamy, sticky, watery, or eggwhite... and i guess it doesn't quite fit into any of those.

 

[ciz]

Lots of hugs Beemeck

JGo_18 I've having that exact cm. It's really odd I don't get it. It's like thin ewcm but creamy that stretch coats the tissue.

No period - tests very negative I don't get it =(

Random question - if you don't ovulate do you still have a period ? I'm just really wondering if I did even ovulate this cycle

 

[jGo_18]

if you don't ovulate - you may end up with a longer cycle while your body tries to ovulate. =/ i hope that's not the case and it's just a shy BFP tho, ciz!

 

[Smille24]

Bee- lots and lots of hugs to you. I am so sorry you're feeling down.

Trr- I hope your numbers are good!

Ciz- like jgo said you're cycle will be long and your body will try to ovulate. It happened to us last cycle and it was sooo long. I used almost 20 tests bc I had no idea what was happening. Kind of embarrassing but hey you never know. I hope that's not the case for you and you get an answer soon!

 

[trixiesmith]

sorry you're feeling down bee.

thanks for the Glow suggestion, I'd never checked it out before but definitely will. DH does his own research but I know he doesn't completely understand it all the time, so it doesn't bother me too much right now. I had to explain a short while ago about today's temp. He assumed that, because bbt is still above coverline, "oh hey you're pregnant" lol noooo, I wish it were that easy to tell buddy. But he tries, and I love him for it.

Glow is great, me and BF used it. And when you get your BFP, because you will, they have a related app to use for pregnancy. I've come to love that one as well.

 

[gina236]

Some POAS porn for you viewing pleasure I'm 10 dpo and swear I see the faintest something in person.

 

[Conundrum]

Gina I think I can see something but not too sure. FX for you

Can't stay long DH will be done giving DD a bath in a minute. Stopped by walmart to get a few things and they had the flat FRERs back. 2 for 12 or 3 curved for 13. Just for those interested.

 

[Futuremomtobe]

You ladies are helping to ease my nervousness and I'm starting to become more excited. Thank you so much! Taking my first clomid this evening FX for all the ladies testing

 

[Smille24]

I will not symptom spot...I will not symptom spot. It's so hard. My bbs are killing me, but it's been normal in most of my cycles. Plus the acne!! It's getting out of hand. I remember with my dd my face broke out so bad. I usually dont break out until the day b4 af and it's usually 1 pimple above my lip.
