A group for TTC#1 and had more than one loss?

[Sooperhans]

Thank you Beach and yes, I love this thread and all the support it offers, and Lexi I love your blueberry ticker thank you Wookie and yes, guess it's more trying and trying....

Got the spotting after I'd posted the above...and thought "hmmm implantation?!" it doesn't usually happen but it did last month and that's when AF showed up. So I'm in 2 minds about all of it but what with the steady temp drop then I can't help but think that's it.....

 

[Nicki123]

Hey Soop, sorry about the BFNs, they are so tough to take. All you can do is wait a few more days and if no AF test again Cus maybe it is implantation? Fx

Wookie also fx for 3rd time lucky for you.

So... Afm well I'm unexpectedly back ttc as of last night! Got a +opk yesterday (cd17), told DH and we thought what the hell, let's give it one try this month before getting down to some proper SMEPing (!) next month. So we ...We have done the healthy / vits thing for over 2 months now and both felt like giving it a whirl . Am very doubtful it will happen from this one off time but we'll see. Feeling quite excited by it all

 

[Sooperhans]

Thanks Nicki, I'll give it until the end of the week and do a re-test. It'a not helping that I don't feel well...this morning I felt ready to jack it all in, I was that fed up! But I don't want to really...sigh. Will see.

Ooooh I hope your one go will make all the difference! Fx'd for you xx

 

[Emmediva]

Lexi, YAY Blueberry!!!! So exciting!!! I can't wait to see a Papaya

Thurl, Any more tests yet? Fingers crossed for a BFP for you!!

Patiently, rooting you on for AF! Come on new cycle so Patiently can TTC again!!

Nicki, Mucinex does work though, EPO takes longer to work, never really have much luck with it..., I just pinch my nose and swallow the Mucinex pill with lots of water

Sooper, I still have hope, I saw your chart says 8dpo, I hate that we are both not sure of our OV date, or if we've even ovulated,

Wookie, praying for ya, hopefully 3rd time on Clomid is it for you!!

Beach, yeah, weird that it shot back up huh? I don't want to get my hopes up but last time that happened I had a BFP for Nov although I mc'd at 6+5 Awesome for you about finishing AF! Now to again, I need a devil smiley

AFM, I am on CD27, my cycles are between 28 - 31 days, so I will prob test tomorrow one more time, don't have high hopes though because I am not sure of OV or if I even ovulated, blah, boobies are more tender, but could be from me pushing on them? I am in a Que Sera Sera mood, what else can I do? But try, try again. to all and lots of baby we need to will those BFP's

 

[Sooperhans]

It sucks we are both having a crap "have we or haven't we ov'd" time! After dismissing the FF line initially as inaccurate, I'm now counting on it! Will wait and see if AF turns up, otherwise I guess I'll test at the weekend or so. Good luck to you and I hope you report back with a bfp...xxx

 

[thurl30]

Hi everyone

I have tested today and the space looks pretty blank so I'm gonna say BFN for now, there could be a very slight shadow but my DH can't see anything, I think it's my brain playing tricks on me, I'm only CD24 today and I really don't think I ovulated yet this cycle, I never ever get pos opk's it drives me nuts not knowing!!

Nicki that's great to hear you have started ttc earlier than planned, spontaneous means you were in a good mood and that could lead to a BFP...fingers crossed

Emme and Soop fingers crossed for you both, it's so frustrating but we just have to keep going xx

Hope everyone else is ok today xx

 

[Sooperhans]

Thurl, have you taken the test apart? Should show with the casing to cast a shadow. Good luck hun xx

 

[patiently]

Soop sorry you got BFN this journey can be so hard hope the spotting is implantation bleeding and if not then i hope next month is your month. FXed for you still hun. How long is your LP usually?

Beach hope the spotting stops so you can get back to ttc! It must be so exciting knowing you can try again and FXed its a short journey to motherhood for you.

Nikki yay!!! im glad you are back to ttc...i hope i can join you soon. After all this time im sure the healthy eating and lifestyles changes will have made a good impact on your fertility along with the acu so hope you get a bfp this cycle. GL hun and to you

Emme i see a temp rise again this morning!!!! yay! i'd say wait a few days and test again because it looks positive atm...FXed for you

Thurl i hope that you get a bfp...wait a few days and test again...you're still testing early so there is hope still...Hope you report back with a bfp

AFM 4 WEEKS TO GO! but today i feel like its dragging, just want AF to get a move on! O and i have a few questions if thats ok...1)f someone says your "Corpus luteum is resolving" at 5 weeks pregnant what does this mean? 2)Can low progesterone cause and early miscarriage or is it possible to have a mmc with low progesterone? 3) What does vitex actually do and can it harm you if you take it during pregnancy? Sorry For the million questions...just asking for a friend

to all those ttc'ers, Hurry up AF for all those waiting to try (including myself), GL to all those testing...h&h 9 months to all those yummy mummies...x

 

[Emmediva]

Thanks Patiently, I don't want to get my hopes up but it's SO hard!! Specially since my boobs are sore and I keep getting shooting pains in them at the moment... my mind is prob playing tricks on me

Answers to your questions...
1.) no idea about Corpus Luteum resolving?? I will be following up on answers about this LOL
2.) Low progesterone can cause miscarriage, I am supplementing with Prometrium after OV is confirmed in this case since it never really was, I took it from CD 21... My OB/Gyn also adv'd for me to take baby aspirin while TTC.
3.) Vitex helps you ovulate but is only supposed to be taken up till OV is confirmed. It should not be taken during pregnancy.

 

[thurl30]

Hi and thanks Soop, I did take the test apart yesterday, but I didn't today. If I see something tomorrow then I will take it apart again, how are you doing today? xx

Hi Patiently, thanks for your kind words. Sorry to hear you feel like the time is dragging, I can empathise with you there, just keep occupied and your ttc time will be here before you know it xx

 

[Nicki123]

Hi P, thanks so much. I really hope the changes We have made work out too cus else I'm not quite sure what we try next!

Here's to the next 4 weeks flying by for you.

Re your questions, I'd heard of corpus luteum but would have not been able to explain it. This seemed to explain it and it's role with progesterone quite well

[Emmediva]

CD27 Ok y'all so boobs have been sore on sides, I feel nipples on fire on & off, I feel shooting pains in boobs off & on and my temp dipped yesterday, so I took a test this afternoon at 7:20 p.m. and got I am still in shock! I don't know if to believe it or not... I'm scared because I don't even know when I ovulated, looking at my temp dip yesterday I would consider it an implantation dip which is why the test is positive today? What do you guys think judging from my screwed up FF chart? I changed the temp for May 3rd, I woke up at 9:00 so I adjusted it on a BBT temp adjuster, based on that my ov date is that day... I am inclined towards that because my cervix was high & soft on CD16 with egg white cm... Please God, Please, let this 3rd be my rainbow baby

 

[kmp]

YAY!!! Emmediva that is fantastic news!!! I know it is hard to believe, but all sounds good! Congratulations and I hope your third will be a very sticky bean and H&H 9 months!!

 

[BeachChica]

Emme- that's definitely a BFP!!! I am so happy for you!!!!

 

[Emmediva]

Thanks y'all I'm just so worried because I'm really not sure of my Ov date, I'm going to the restroom everytime expecting AF, I hate that I can't enjoy the BFP. Don't get me wrong, I'm thankful I have another chance, I'm just so worried something is going to go wrong like with the other 2 pregnancies... Sigh, I just need to get checked out, but my doc's office is closed tomorrow, darn luck. I may still call and see if they can get the nurse to approve a Beta & Progesterone level test...

 

[patiently]

YAY emme im so happy for you, that line is getting strong girly! im wishing you a h&h9 months i know its hard to think positive but positivity breeds positivity, sending you loads of sticky dust and hope you are "third time lucky"

 

[Misswish]

Hey girls its great to see some good news.
Emmediva that definately looks like a BFP to me!! YAY!! I hope everything goes well.
Thats wonderful news to Lexi on the scan. Glad to hear everything is going well. Would be exciting.
My accupunturist also said about make sure I keep my uterus and back warm as I have poor circulation.
I'm also taking EPO this cycle so will see what happens. I was taking my temp but hurt my arm and have stopped. Was hard work getting dressed let alone anything esle lol.
Hope everyone is going well

 

[Misswish]

Emme I can understand how you would feel worried, I would totally feel the same way. Sounds a good idea ringing through and getting the test. I have my fingers crossed for you that this will all work out for you this time.

 

[lexi374]

Emme yay there is no doubt about that line! You are preggo girl!!

Now...... deep breaths x

 

[Neversaynever]

Emma...congrats chick..looks like a 12/13 DPO test

Lexi...loving that ticker girl

Soop...blah to the blank white space they're bloody horrible

Heads too tired and can't remember who else I was going to answer I'll get the laptop out at some point to reply so I can do so properly

Wookie..thurl...patiently...misswish....beach...KMP....Nicki...and anyone I've missed

Uk tests...I've had a fantastic evap at 12 DPO on a tesco (they're not sensitive either!) had evaps on SD too although I know people swear by them. I found that Asda/Morrison own brand sensitive and if I want to be a cheaper still tester, I get the poundland strip/dip tests like the IC's...two for a pound if you don't want to buy a batch online.

That's my two pennies worth
