We are 1 day off! We can endure the tortured 2ww together!

Morning ladies! Poas day 2 and it's a low for me, ok I have a question and sorry to ask but its about checking your cervix! so as I'm fairly new to that too do ya think I should be doing it every day this early in my cycle? Or is this the perfect time seeing as I'm still trying to get to know it, so to speak xx

 

[1cre8tivgrl]

Since this is your first cycle checking I would monitor it now to watch for changes, once you know what's normal for your body it will be helpful to you. Just make sure you check it around the same time every day becaue it does move throughout the day

 

[chicky160]

it moves!?! blimey, x

 

[DaisyQ]

it moves!?! blimey, x

That's so funny. Yes it moves! If you are tracking it, you have to check it the same time and in the same position every day. Personally, I don't find checking mine to be all that helpful, so I do it once in a while, but I'm not really doing it too often anymore. The only time it's obvious that it's low and firm is right before I start AF, but it can be low and firm if you are pregnant too - so CP is not a way to symptom spot for pregnancy. Otherwise, my CP is usually medium, medium! So it's not that helpful for me...

 

[1cre8tivgrl]

Yes...and I don't find it very helpful either, I usually only check mine around when I think I will o, as its helpful in telling you when your getting close, as it will be high and soft. Other than that it's not much useful as Daisy said....in the 2ww it can be all over the place and nothing seems to mean anything!

 

[jchic]

I am the WORST at checking my CP. It moves multiple times a day for me, hahahaha

 

[chicky160]

Thanks girls for the advice I suppose when I've been checking a while il have a better idea hey, I seriously didn't know it moved! And I freak out I'm going to give myself a uti! Obviously I wash my hands first, but still x

hey all,

i didnt check my CP at ALL i just have no frame of reference. i tried it but i couldnt !!

i used opks like three times a day when i had cm though.

well i spoke to a scan specialist today. she gave my the breakdown of my results. basically all my results are really really positive except the worlds craziest HcG

They are

HCG - 5.11 MoM
PAPPA - 0.58MoM
NT - 1mm or 0.77 MoM
CR- 50mm

she said they are brilliant, really positive but has never encountered a HCG so high!! ahha. i have done a load of internet based research but they dont have hcg that high. The NT is a nice small result.

Anyhoo ladies im totally more chilled today. What will be will be, and i will accept it completely, we have decided no more tests or amnio ect.

Okay ladies,
QUESTION: I have been checking my CP this month -mostly just to see if gfj has been helping my CM. I have always been able to reach it and kinda 'extract' CM (sorry! TMI)
Lately, I've had lots of gooey white CM. Today it's clear and slippery and I can't reach my cervix. I tried a few times!

Keep in mind, I am on CD 35 today (around 42 day cycles) and did not get a peak this cycle.

Happy, YAY for good results!

Love, hopeful

 

[hopefulhoney]

Creative, why are you feeling 'ignored'? Don't you know how much we love you?

 

[DaisyQ]

Hopeful - you are a fertile myrtle - time to get busy - it soulds like O is imminent!

Happy - great news about your test results hon - I'm sure bean will be just fine.

AFM...
So I just heard back from the nurse at RMA! I didn't get my numbers, but the nurse said that I can go ahead and start the clomid today. I take 2 pills (100mg) daily. I am going to take them before bed, and hopefully sleep through whatever side effects there might be.

I am also supposed to go in for an ultrasound on March 7th - which is a week basically! I can't believe it's happening so fast! The nurse said to bring my ovidrel shot with me, because they might be triggering me that day, depending on how everything is looking. That will be CD11!! I can't imagine ovulating so early, but... OK. Does anyone know - does clomid push up your ovulation date or make your eggs mature faster?

I wrote more in my journal....

I am also stressing out about the time between my trigger and IUI - it will only be 24 hours. Isn't that too short??

 

[chicky160]

Sounds good hopeful !! Get busy! Fingers crossed for you. X

 

[1cre8tivgrl]

Hopeful jump on your OH you are VERY close to ovulating hun!!! Thanks for the love...my status actually has nothing to do with people on here, you guys are so wonderful and defintely make me feel loved!! Its the people in RL...short story in my journal.

Daisy!! Wow...ready set go! We may end up being o buddies yet Yes clomid moves up o!! A girl I chat with on here is on it and she did an opk the day after AF left her CD6 and she got a +opk and o'd the next day She didn't believe it either! Excited for you this cycle hun!!!!

 

[hopefulhoney]

Okay team, was feeling so doubtful because I'm cramping a little. Constant but not severe. Do O cramps feel like little AF cramps?
Lucky for me it's our date-night tonight... hope it's not too late! Plus we yesterday! Lucky timing!

Mine do sometimes!! You may very well be ovulating right now! How exciting!!!!! Yay for date-night!!

 

[happyh29]

daisy I am so excited for you.the bfp is on its way.you could still have a 2012 baby.

I don't know enough about it to say if the trigger is to close to iui. what did the rn say?

but seriously you are cooking on gas, its going to happen for you x

 

[1cre8tivgrl]

Happy - girlfriend get yourself a baby ticker!! I need to know how many weeks you are at all times!

 

[DaisyQ]

Thanks guys... I would be SO happy to have a baby in 2012.... And another Sag like me!

Hopeful, sometimes around O, I get a dull achy crampy feeling, and a backache, but it's a little different from AF, where the cramps are usually stronger.

 

[hopefulhoney]

ooh daisy, I think that you meant that o info for me? Thanks! I am feeling really mild AF type cramps. I get extremely severe AF cramps so it's hard to know whether these are other people's normal??

Because this cycle was so messed up (as was the last one!) I have no idea whether I'm near AF or ovulation. Ha ha ha! What a gong show!

I'm gonna take it easy and if nothing by day 43, do an hpt. We did a lot of BDing so if not this month, def need some help getting my eggies to move!
