4DPO today (This is an old thread!!!!)

[Eltjuh]

Did you have all this with your first Naaxi??? (you have 1 child right??)

I was really upset about it last night, crying my eyes out over our mc aswell, just wish that had never gone wrong I would've had another baby at the end of May/start of June then!! Would've been about 31 weeks pregnant now!
And hubby didn't even notice I cried....
So we just went to sleep and this morning he was getting up with our son and I was supposed to have a lay-in but I got a lovely wake-up call by hearing hubby being sick in the toilet! So I'm up and feeling like a zombie!!
Feel like just going to sleep on the sofa, but I can't cause I've got a 2yr old running around and obviously I need to keep an eye on him.... even if he's just sitting there watching tv

Elt- **Hugs** Hopefully your DH will feel better and you can get some rest this weekend

Yeah Eltjuh, I have one child, my son who is 18 months. And it must be an Easter thing- he is sick for the first time in his life, vomitting pretty much everything that goes down all of yesterday. I am hoping he feels better today. But with him my warm hands were the first clue because I never had warm hands, especially in January. And then I just had a feeling. I did for two full days this cycle, but back to nada. Last time I has given up (and cried) when I started spotting, figured AF was on her way. Spotting the next day as well, figured she was toying with me. Took a test to mentally prepare for her arrival and danced to the radio while awaiting the results, looked back to two lines on the FRER and couldn't believe my eyes. After two years trying, it is hard to imagine it's real.

Anyways, not testing today. I feel like AF is going to come, so waiting on her. Hurry and come so I can start next cycle!

 

[Eltjuh]

Oooh I remember your story now! You must've been OVER THE MOON with the 2 lines!!!
I don't have any hope or at least no high hopes for this cycle so I'd be absolutely gobsmacked, very very surprised if I'd get a bfp!!

So you reckon AF is on her way then??? I really hope for you that she doesn't show, but I guess you know best and I find that I'm usually pretty spot on when I feel like she's coming...

 

[Naaxi]

Hubby is supporting my PoaS addiction and told me to test in the morning because he sees the signs. Guessing will be a bfn but will post a pic anyways. And seeing the two lines was amazing. I meant to tell hubby in a cute way but instead called him at work, asked him how his day was and said I got two lines. He was confused for a minute but happy the next I want this more than him, though. How are you feeling? Why do you not think this month you will be in? Every time you o brings you closer to your bfp

 

[Eltjuh]

Oh it's so hard not to tell them isn't it?! When I got my bfp with the mc I was so excited, hubby was still asleep and I was like I should just wait and then when he gets up get Lucas (our son) to give him the test.... But then I decided to stick a post it on there saying: I think I'm gonna be a big brother and me and my son went to wake hubby up just to give him the test haha!!

I don't think it's my month, cause of the side effects the meds apparently have on sperm.... So I'm kind of expecting nothing is gonna come from it. We'll probably still try but like this morning I woke up when hubby accidentally threw my phone on the floor when he got up and I turned my alarm for temping off cause I was like: I'm not gonna be pregnant this month anyway!
I'll probably still temp but don't think I'm gonna do my opk's this month cause I don't wanna waste money when the chances are so small! Apparently the meds cut a man's sperm count up to 50% and also affects the shape and motility.
We won't be able to see the doctor until thursday/friday to possibly change his meds and it takes a while for his sperm to go back to normal from what I've heard.

Hubby was all excited aswell, he asked me whether it was possible this month to test on his birthday!! It would be a bit too early but I could test soon after his birthday though. His birthday is on the 18th and I should ovulate on/around the 14th...

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOUR TEST!!!!

 

[Naaxi]

Lol sorry I know I said I would post it regardless but I got frustrated and broke it to look closer then trashed it in a pout. Big ol' negative. I don't get it. Really dont. Hubby doesn't help, because his ex never got positives with his older kids until much later than AF was due, she went for bloodwork instead. But that was almost 19 and almost 17 years. I should just get over myself, this month isn't my month. Bad me for still having hope lol. Hurry and come, AF, I wanna get to trying again.

I am sorry you are down about this month, but maybe not charting and just doing the deed may work for you, even with the lowered fertility he is experiencing. Or just the break might be nice, have a few drinks, let what happens happen for this month. Maybe a surprise January baby is in your future

 

[Eltjuh]

haha yeah I was thinking/hoping that! Cause you hear it a lot when people stop trying it happens! Technically we're not gonna stop trying, but I just don't have any expectations which also takes a lot of the pressure off I guess!
I'm glad I know what sort of timeframe I usually O in though so we can still BD (a lot) around that time! And I'm still gonna temp so I can keep track of my cycles and stuff. Just haven't temped yesterday and today. Yesterday was cause I heard hubby throwing up and just jumped out of bed without even thinking about temping or what time it was! And today was cause I was too tired so I turned my alarm off haha.... Hubby woke me up at 11.30 this morning so I wouldn't sleep all day haha

Bummer about your bfn Stupid tests!!! I know what you mean about getting angry with the test and trashing it! haha I've been wanting to do that a lot! Especially with the CB Digi's when they say: Not Pregnant! You just wanna smash it to pieces! haha!! Those words are AWFUL, even worse than only seeing 1 line!! Hopefully AF will turn up soon for you! When is it due??

 

[Naaxi]

Yeah, I didn't have expectations the first month we decided to try home inseminations... I was giggling on the floor of the bathroom after insertion about how silly the situation was- and got pregnant. The stress from the ICIs all failing and years of trying naturally vanished for that first month of "let's just see how this way works". And it must have done the trick. I am too anxious to be pregnant now, it will probably take a while. I wish you luck hun!!

Hurry up AF, I know you are on your way... grr lol. She is due any time from the first to the third. Still feel a weighted tummy though. Sigh. Perhaps just a different type of bloat.

 

[Eltjuh]

Hopefully AF will be here for you soon!!

Mine has almost ended, just spotting...

 

[Eltjuh]

My boobs are really weird at the moment!! They feel all tingly, especially in the nipples... kind of burny feeling aswell, it's really weird!!

Ofcourse I did a pregnancy test , just to make sure (eventhough I got AF and that's almost gone now...) But I used one of my tests that had the bad indents so I didn't waste any tests haha. And bfn ofcourse, as expected

Not sure what's going on with my boobs though!

 

[Eltjuh]

Ah!! it's getting really uncomfortable now!! :S

I know what it feels like: you know when you've got really cold hands when you're outside when it's freezing?? THAT's what it feels like... when they go all tingly...

How did you do that?? Hahahah at this point i'll try anything if AF shows...
DH said we should just use a turkey baster... hahahaha

 

[Naaxi]

Lol WELL I have to do it this way, as hubby got a vasectomy that only had a five percent chance of having a successful reversal when we asked the fertility specialist three years ago. So we use a known donor's sperm in a disposible shot glass and I insert with a medicine syringe, like the ones you use to give kids liquid advil hahahaaa A turkey baster wouldn't work as well, it would all get stuck in the baster instead of coming out, the plunger works to help this in the medicine syringe.

That is odd about your boobies Eltjuh. I don't know what that could be. Mine are always feeling different, my LO still nurses so they do odd things. Maybe just hormones.

With my luck AF is going to be late because of my PCOS even though it has been stable for about a year.

 

[Eltjuh]

I think they were just cold.... I wasn't cold myself so I didn't understand, but I was still wearing my pj's (with a jumper on top) and no bra, so I decided to put a bra on to see if that would work and it did, so I'm guessing my nipples were freezing their tits off

Oh wow! you're not having an easy time are you??? PCOS, hubby with a vasectomy, having to do HI with a spermdonor! Gosh!! I don't know how you do it!! I got all upset just cause I kept getting bfn's the past couple of months and before it seemed so easy to conceive! And now hubby's meds. Thought that was hard
What about when you conceived your LO that was with HI aswell right??? Are you using the same donor???

 

[diamondlove33]

Well ladies, tested this morning @ 10dpo...

 

[diamondlove33]

Being cautiously excited! Everyone sees the line right?! lol! HSG baby on board..

 

[Naaxi]

Omgosh diamondlove!!!!!! Congrats!!!!!! I am super jealous But how exciting! And yes, that line is most definitely there and at 10dpo the lightness is expected. Lots of sticky dust to you!

Eltjuh, yes, our son was conceived with HI and we are using the same donor. It is tough, but you gotta work with what you are dealt and we have found a way It worked once, I am hoping it works again. I am crampy, thinking AF will come soon.

 

[Eltjuh]

Wow yay!! I see the line aswell..... Though, don't forget it is a blue dye test, BUT I still reckon you're pregnant anyway! For your own peace of mind you might want to do another test though, a pink one, or a digital.
Sorry, not meaning to be negative or anything!!

 

[SmplyBlessed]

GM ladies & GL Diamond!!! There's definitely something there

Can you ladies believe it's already April?!
