Any SMEPers!!!! 43 Testers! 22 BFP!!!!

[stacergirl]

I second all of the last posts and am sending good vibes to everyone.

Krystina, I have not had any symptoms with b6. My pee isn't even neon which a lot of people said it might be. Maybe I needed it? Dh finally comes back this weekend so maybe we can get back to ttc soon.

Snowflake-I put in a call to ob but haven't heard back. Maybe I should get over it and just go with the guy. I mean I don't know either of them so it's like taking a stab in the dark with either of them! I dont even know if i should take a break though bc I'm just sooo stressed right now-my sis is getting married in may and I'm moh so I'm planning the shower and Bach all by myself, and work is stressful, and dh being away (i should be used to it bc hes always gone due to army but it bever gets easier) and this ttc is starting to wear on me so I'm crying a lot more lately. I just want an answer. Being around my friends is harder and harder bc ttc is the topic of conversation lately and they don't know about my ttc journey. But this adds more stress bc they talk about it like it should just happen right away! Argh! Ok done venting! Thanks!

Lisa - I was so shocked to see my temp stayed this high. But I also read that Clomid can mess with bbt? I really hope that this is my month even though I am so scared of being let down again. So I wanted to try the liquid sand polishes but haven't yet for the same reason that I don't want it catching on my clothes. Plus I wear gloves at work everyday so I am afraid it's going to rip the latex. I will try them soon though. I know Zoya also makes a good one, they are called Pixie Dust! Hope you are feeling good in your pregnancy! Time is flying by and I can't believe you'll be seeing your baby boy soon!

Kristina - I really want to test but I am so scared to. I am feeling bloated so I am afraid AF is on her way. I should be getting AF this Sat! How are you? You are only a few days behind me in the TWW!!!! When do you plan to test?

Girl your chart is off the rocker! I really hope its you month. As for me, I don't test...LOL AF is due 2/16 I will def wait for her to be at least 7 days late before I even think about testing....I am going to go bonkers if you get a BFP there are very few of us original ladies on here...not saying we are not all due BFP's... (not trying to make anyone feel any type of way, just been on this thread for a year + now and shared a lot of tears, fears, smiles, and hopes with some of the ladies on here)

 

[BamBamsMaMa]

Kristina - I feel the same way. I really wish all of us would get our BFPs already, especially the OGs! Lol! Last month was the only time I resisted doing a hpt during my TWW. I am at 10 DPO today and I am so tempted to test. I really don't have any out of the ordinary symptoms so I am afraid to have my hopes crushed. I will hold off as long as possible!

 

[BamBamsMaMa]

Feeling a little gutted today. My temp dropped and I am feeling AF like cramps. Pretty sure AF will show tomorrow or Sat. To top it off, I just received an invitation to my BD'ed baby shower thrown by her sister. I keep wondering when or if it will ever be my turn. DH thinks I am too hard in myself and asked me to take it easy. It's easier said than done when there's so much hope every month but even when you did/timed everything right, AF still shows.

 

[krystinab]

May, sorry you are feeling crampy... hoping that af doesn't show..a lot of women get cramps & a bfp...

 

[Jessica28]

May - Could it be a possible implantation dip? Thats what I am hoping!

 

[BamBamsMaMa]

Thanks, guys! I hope you are right but I highly doubt it. I am at 11 DPO today and its a bit late for implantation. Cramping is getting worse!

 

[stacergirl]

Bams you never know for sure til Af shows. I've heard of temps going up and down and still getting a BFP. Just stay positive and hope for the best (easier said than done I know)! we are all hoping for you!!! Go may go!! and sorry about the baby shower invite, im sure that doesn't help anything! ugh!

 

[Tasha S.]

May: It's not over yet! I just want to say that with my first BFP, my cramps actually got worse! I totally thought AF was on her way!! I really hope this is your month, hun!!

Krys: YAY for IUI next cycle!!!! I'm still keeping my fx for you this month, but it's definitely exciting to know that if there is a next cycle, it will bring new things!! I've heard so many success stories with IUI! Krys, when I hear yours, I will literally dance!!!

Stacergirl: I understand about wanting a female OBY. I hate going for those kind of things--so embarrassing regardless of whether it's a woman or a man!! Sounds like you need some chill-time!!! Wow! Lots on your plate right now!! I'm sorry that DH has to leave often. My DH left once for work for 6 consecutive weeks (right when I stopped my pill and wanted to TTC...and then we missed two months because he was gone!), and I found it hard!! Hugs!

Alley & Dove: miss hearing from you ladies!! Is everything well??

AFM: I'm doing well girls! No more spotting--thank God!! I have really bad nausea, and lots of cramps and gas LOL!!! I feel really gross hehehe!!! Poor DH has to make his own food now. I'm officially afraid of our fridge (can't stand the smells!)

May, I'm with all the other ladies... Not giving up hope on you yet. Dissapointments are always tough especially when you did everything you can do. Thinking of you, keep us posted.

Tasha, glad the spotting is gone, sounds like you have all those wonderful early pregnancy symptoms.

AFM, looks like my follicle has grown and should ovulate by the weekend. Tomorrow they're taking a sample of my cm. we have to bed 1-8 hrs before this test to see if the swimmers are alive and environment isn't hostile...lol. Has anyone done this before? Also have more bloods and another ultrasound. This is getting exhausting.

I am having mild back pain tonight but I seriously think it's from sitting around so much...ugh.

I'm still here, I read all the posts, but I'm afraid that I'll make people feel bad talking about my pregnancy.

Fingers are crossed for you May!

Tasha--you're an olive!! So excited for you, girl!!

 

[krystinab]

Happy Friday Ladies!!

May, any word on whats going on? At this point I say test!

Dove darling, I can only speak for myself but dont think you will make us feel bad. We were with you when you were TTC and are with you through these glorious nine months!

Sunny, thats a neat/nasty test! I never had it done, its funny cause when I asked my RE about lack of EWCM she didnt think it was a big deal. Are they giving you a trigger shot?

Stacegirl whats going on with you??

AFM, nothing to report...AF should be here in exaclty one week.

 

[Jessica28]

Well I hope my still being here at full term isn't making anyone feel bad but I did start out ttc with some of the ladies still here so I kind of want to stay and cheer them on as well as the new ladies.

Stop playing Jess. You know we want you on here.

Krystina, The test this am was called a post coital test. This cycle they're just testing, no triggor. I had bloods and ultrasound and they confirmed I ovulated, so sometime between yesterday am and this am I ovulated. Even though its on my tubeless side steady I'm happy I ovulated earlier than the last few cycles so I hope my cycles are getting back to my regular 28/29 day cycles. I'll have Progesterone test on the 14th and my review with my review with the doctor to discuss my results and plan next steps.
I'm so excited for your IUI but truly hoping you get your BFP. I know you've been taking it easy this cycle and lots of ladies have success when they take a little break FXd for you.

May, thinking of you.

Dove and Jess, your pregnancies don't bring me down, you guys give me we hope that we can all get our rainbow babies.

 

[stacergirl]

Jess/dove- I'm a newbie but totally respect your relationship with all these ladies and respect your ttc journey, so it doesn't bother me at all.

Krystina-nothing exciting with me! Dh comes back tomorrow! Yay. Re appt isn't til march 6-dying to get answers sooner though and have been calling to get an earlier appt but nothing yet. Next cycle starts end of next week. So I'm hoping we can do it naturally this cycle-but dont want to get my hopes up. I'm anxious to see how your IUi goes (but hoping you don't have to have it of course!!). I'm actually hoping the re says that's what we need and we can get started right away! This waiting is killing me!! Lol how are you feeling?!

 

[stacergirl]

Sunny! That's exciting news! I'm so glad they're being so thorough on your testing just bc some other ladies don't get nearly the amount of testing and that would be frustrating to not know. After all this testing is done they should be able to pin point exactly what's wrong and fix it! But maybe this will be your month!! Good luck!!
