So I havent used OPKs or temped this cycle and I am on cd12. I really think I am going to use an OPK tomorrow. I thought it would be less stressful if I didnt use opks but I was wrong. We havent BDd since Sunday cause Sean missed his appointment last week to make his deposit BUT he is going tomorrow. I usually O around CD14 so I am hoping theres still a chance but I am not feeling to optimistic.

Thanks girls. Just having a freak out day yesterday - cried for most of my lunch break but I just don't "feel pregnant" and that is exactly how my MC was. No symptoms. I am just flat out worried today. I have such anxiety over these levels.

Krystina - It's hard to find that happy medium of what makes you the most relaxed. Whether it's not temping or not OPK's or just one and not the other....

 

[armymama2012]

Well preggo symptoms hit me hard last night. One minute chills, next minute hot flashes. Also got nauseous cooking the ground beef for spaghetti. Woke up this morning, peeing every hour, hot flashes, and major MS that wont let up.

When I had AF it felt like someone was pushing a really heavy rolling pin over my uterus. Made me feel really weak.

Amy no I am not starting with IUI the RE recommended FSH injections & timed intercourse. I am going to find out the plan tomorrow...like when it starts and what not...

Lisa, I am guessing you are having a boy I hear a lot of women are symptomless with them.

 

[mammaspath]

wow army...........how awesome is that line!!!!

 

[alleysm]

Maybe i need hubs to give queen victoria more sausage... put more in then maybe it wont feel like my shit is falling out.... lmao

 

[alleysm]

And he wants me to clarify.. sausage log.. so yall arent thinking "link" ...

 

[snowflakes120]

Haha! Alley sausage log.

AFM, I am super happy about my levels - they were 5,892. I am 5 weeks or 21dpo. However, I am less than pleased with my Progesterone level falling yet again. It is down to 20. And I'm pissed at the RE. She doesn't want to do anything. I was at 30 last Monday. It is going down and she doesn't want to do anything. From what I have read - 20 should be the lowest it should be to sustain a pregnancy. I told the nurse, that I wanted her to talk to the RE again and let her know that I am concerned and I'd rather be safe than sorry. I am beyond mad right now. If this keeps going down I will loose this baby. I may just raise my dose myself. I am so mad I could spit nails!

Awww...I'm sorry Lisa. And yes, you need to keep those levels up! I want to know my numbers but I am nervous about asing as I have never done it before. Can I just ask at my first OB appointment (which might not be for a few weeks) or go to my normal family doctor and ask him to do a quantitative?

 

[alleysm]

How much progesterone are you on? I would be increasing ...

 

[BamBamsMaMa]

Here's the latest development with me... Absolutely nothing!!!!! I have no more cramps but my lower left ab area near the ovary feels uncomfortable. Just now, I noticed a large clump of CM with brown streaks when I used the bathroom. After I wiped, there were no more spotting. So if you guys are right and I O'ed on CD 23 instead, I should be at 10 DPO today? I was hoping to wait until AF arrives to see my gyno for blood work to check my hormones. Now that AF isn't here yet, should I still keep my appointment tomorrow?

I just watched the movie "What to expect when you are expecting" and I completely feel JLo's character - I can't even do the one thing women are purposed to do, to have a baby. I feel like a failure.

May- You arent a failure! And as for the CM with brown streaks, that could be implantation! If it is implantation then bloodwork tomorrow wont show anything. As far as I have heard the soonest bloodwork shows HCG that confirms pregnancy is 4 days after implantation. I will pray that you are implanting and that in 4-5 days we will have another BFP!

 

[snowflakes120]

How much progesterone are you on? I would be increasing ...

I am on 200mg of Progesterone vaginally every night. If my RE doesn't increase my dosage, I will do it myself. The bottle seems to not have a limited amt of refills. I will do 1 in the AM and 1 in the PM. I am beyond pissed and shouldn't have this much stress already about this stuff.

May - I say IB too! With my last PG - I had it - it was like brown fiberous pieces in my CM.

 

[krystinab]

May. I am jumping on the Army & Lisa train I think its implantation bleeding...I really hope your our next BFP!!

Alley- sausage LOG...LOL I love it...I cant have sex when AF is in the house....mostly becasue DH is terrified!

Lisa, whats up with your RE. I would call my obgyn if I were you and I would def increase my doasge. What is she thinking there is no reason for you progesterone to be going down...

 

[BamBamsMaMa]

Seriously? Even though FF said I O'ed on CD 20 and I am at 13 DPO today? I really thought I was supposed to get AF yesterday or today.
