Great news Moni!! We all knew you shouldn't have given up in the beginning!!!
 
Terri, I saw your chart says AF got you today. Will you be doing another IVF cycle this cycle?
 
Hello book :-) I made my husband go to the 13 week scan. He was also having trouble getting himself sway from work and was not going to go. We saw a little baby with arms and legs and he got a bit emotional. Up until then I think he had been feeling a bit detached from the pregnancy etc. He was glad he went.
 
OMG Moni!! Congrats!!!! So happy for you, what a great week!

Thank you ladies for all the congrats, but I'm still being cautious. To answer your questions, the only person I've told, other than my DH, is my best friend. I plan on waiting at least will 12 weeks, maybe even longer if I don't show too much, if I can. Since I've already had a baby, I will likely show much earlier (with DS, I only started showing at around week 21-22, so it was easy to hide). This time around, I actually plan on not coming back to work after the baby, so I need to figure out how to tell my work and when. With our extended families, we'll likely try to wait till Thanksgiving, but who knows if we'll be able to. I'll tell my mom probably in the next few weeks, once I know this LO has the potential to stick around.
Thanks Taurus for the picture uploading tip - but I don't know that u can see any lines on those tests,in person they're faint but there. I'll post some progression pic tonight - we're on vacay, but of course I'm still testing every day, crazy woman that I am :wacko: It does stink that I can't join my DH in drinking at dinner and all, but what a great reason not to. We're still in shock, it hasn't sunken in yet.

And OMG kfs - when are you going to test??? Your chart is looking insane! Sorry if we're all nagging you about it, in case you're trying to be "good" and wait.(BTW I'm so sorry about your dog, I didn't mean to bring up a painful topic...it's such a unbearable time when your pets pass).

Spud - so sorry about the bfn, hang in there, your time may be next month!
 
Kbrain - I understand why you're holding off on telling everyone. Totally nerve wracking. Ugh - I don't know about testing. My temp drop this morning is throwing me off - especially since I'm still on P.

Spud - so sorry for the BFN. :(

Moni - congrats again!!!
 
Galvan-Yes, we're going to try again. I thought AF started yesterday, but considering she's already gone, I'm going to count my spotting/half starting from Saturday as CD1. It is nice not having long periods, but I hardly know they're even here. HA!

Kbrain-Good call on waiting to tell the family, and yes, I'm sure you'll be showing sooner than you like this time around. Think positive thoughts and enjoy the rest of your vacation.

Taurus-Sorry your son couldn't sleep at your vacation home, but the good news for you is that you're back home and he can sleep.

Bookwrmgal-I'm so happy you finally got to tell someone that was happy for you (aside from us). Grandparents are truly the best! I think your DH should take off work for the scan. It'll be nice for him to see, I would think. :shrug:
 
Moni -congratulations :-)

Mommy - are you using ovulation sticks? I'm thinking about ordering some to try next cycle? Are they easy and convenient. Also don't want to stress the husband ....but may be easier than fitting in lots of bd-ing when he works 80 hour weeks lol..
Does anyone have any experience with these?

But u know my temps fell right before my bfp, so don't count yourself out yet. I can't believe u haven't tested yet, you have strong resolve!
 
I'm 35 DH 36. This is our 3rd cycle trying for baby number 2. I'm CD 6 and have ordered ovulation test strips that hopefully will help as I don't temp and have no idea when I ovulate. Good luck to all you ladies.

Hi having! I've been using ov strip for years, I don't think I would have ever conceived without them. The trick to them for me, is to start using them at cf 10 every day, morning and night. That way if u have a short LP spike that signals ov, u won't miss it. I think along with Fertility Friend, this will help u pinpoint your ov exactly.
 
Spud ~ I used equate opks this last month. I tested smu (late morning) then again around 4 with a 3 hour hold. I used to O cd 14 and I am pretty much right on again. I start on cd 11 then test until a negative.
 
Thanks everyone. I'm very nervous for tomorrow's follow upbeta ...hoping she is sticking like crazy.
 
Good luck Moni, fingers crossed for u and will be sending good vibes your way. I bet she's a strong ltitle and will be hanging on just fine.
 
Welcome having........definately invest in OPK's, they are a must have.

Moni - will be stalking for news...........

Hi everyone else..................
 
Hi having my first - sounds similar to me. I'm 35 dh is 41. Have been ttc#2 since around xmas. I don't temp either and have only just worked out when I might ovulate. Fingers crossed for you :-)

Fingers crossed for everybody.

Af arrived to day which I'm happy about. I'm going to start this cycle fresh and try to get more exercise and eat more healthily.
 
Quick update. I just heard from my nurse. BCPs start today, stimming starts on 9/19. I guess I'm not testing in September, but that's ok. This HAS to be my lucky cycle.
