CD 10 & TTC after MC (in Dec), 2nd cycle trying since, anyone wanna buddy up?

[Afamilygal]

Kate! Ok so either a possible symptom or just very weird gas...
I have a sharp pain on my left side that feels like gas but only on one side... Weird right? I feel so bloated and can feel the pain in my left abdomen and my left lower back. Ouchy.
Ever heard of that?

What did I say about totally my major symptom spotting problem?!

 

[katestar53]

Hahahah love the shower smiley!!

Look this one, cant think what we would use it for!??!

Yep am almost in the horrid 2ww, I hate it so much! Its more like the 2 month wait, feels like that sometimes!!!

Are you too early for implanation pains yet coz those sypmtoms sound like classic implantation pains? Keep me updated, Im love hearing about symptoms!!!!

 

[Afamilygal]

way too early! Im only 4dpo! I think the earliest is 6dpo. HOWEVER, I started feeling pains 2 days after we had the last time and by 4dpo I was feeling SO bad, I was super nauseated and had the worst cramps (I even went to the GYN who took an ultrasound and said my appendix looked funny so I thought it was going to burst and ended up going to the ER only to have a CAT scan and be told there is nothing wrong with me.) except a few weeks later I realized I was PG and it was probably implantation. or something bad related to the PG. I mean it HURT. not like cramps like 'holy shit I cant stand up cause I think Im dying' hurt.
I still worry that the CAT scan had something to do with the MC. my doctor said it couldn't have since I mc'd so much later... but who knows! needless to say, no CAT scans for me ANYTIME soon.

soooo... maybe maybe! I freakin hope so. I would be so happy!

the weird pains on the side are gone but I feel a kind of pressure really low in my pelvis. it isnt a cramp so much as like... a need to pee almost? watch it be a UTI... sheesh!

well, you will be in the 2ww soon enough dearie and then we will be symptom spotting for you too! HORRAY!

btw, that flasher is SO funny. WTF?!
Holly is my fav

Hi there! Im new to this forum. Never posted on B&B before but done some serious stalking last month. I thought for sure I was PG after the last O, had TONS of symptoms but got AF 2 days late (boooo) but there she was so...
(btw, Im trying hard to learn the lingo here, correct me if I say something wrong- theres a lot to learn!)

so anyhoo, This is our 2nd cycle to try again after our loss back in December. I was 11 wks and it was our first child so I was really distraught afterwards. But Ive been in therapy, doing much much better now and ready to try again! We were told to wait 2 months of normal AF to TTC and we waited 5 months so we could be emotionally ready for whatever happens.

so here I am! I am on CD 9. (I have irregular cycles, anywhere from 29 to 34 days so I bought the CBFM -LOVE the little sucker! and my fertility reading went up yesterday. YAY!) Its super scary but so exciting too (minus the 2WW which drives me MAD! (hence my need for a buddy!)

If my charting and obsessive tracking has taught me anything, I think I should O on day 12 this month... so its comin up!

anyone out there on a similar cycle (or not!) who wants to buddy up?

I MC in July 2010, was 10 weeks. I was devastated too. We have since been ttc with no luck. I find this site to be supportive and helpful. I am on 9 DPO and feeling down as I feel like AF will be here soon. I wanted a BFP soooo bad. I hope u have fun BD'ing and hope you catch the egg. Much baby dust to you. Kat

 

[Afamilygal]

Hey Kat! welcome to this thread! you sound so blue.. Im so sorry for your loss and the efforts you are going through.
Like I always say, the business of making/having babies is a difficult one...unfortunate but true.
so your 9dpo? you never know, some women have little to no symptoms so maybe this is your month and you'll get your ! (I will be cheering for you!) When will you test?
I know that feeling in the 2ww when you just want SOMETHING to happen. Its super hard but stick in there- repeat after me "I will get my baby!!!" try to keep busy the next few days and try not to go crazy!
best of luck to you Kat and keep us posted!

 

[4boys1girl]

Lol, I have become craed with testing, lol. maybe thats why i let myself down. I have tested on days 5, 8 and 9 DPO (and I know they are all abit early) but I just couldnt wait. I'll try again tomorrow with FMU, because I work nights on wed/thurs. If no AF, then I will have normal night sleep on Fri and test again Saturday. I was sooo hopeful this month, but its diminishing. I still have an ounce of hop though. My friends all around me are have BFP's and just started trying, so it is frustrating, ya know? thanks for the ear and support, your awesome. Kat

Hahaha am loving Holly How are you feeling today chick? Any more pains or syptoms? Have you done any research into CAT scans affecting pregnancy? I wouldnt worry too much but its probably best to stay away from CATS scans for the time being Just before I MC I had these horredous pain and I knew something wasnt quite right, the pain was so bad it made me feel sick. Then I started to bleed But heyho, this is a new cycle and we can do this chick, we can get our and go on to have happy bonny baba's

Quick question hun, had my two peak days on Monday and Tuesday and thought my temp would rise today but its still the same as yesterday?? Am uber confused now as you would think I would of had a higher reading today, FX it goes high 2morrow?

Am off to have professional photos taken of Ruby today, wooooo, thought it would be nice to have a nice framed photo when she is still a puppy I hope the photograper can manage to get one of her and she is so hyperactive!!!

Have a lovely day hun

Welcome Kat and sorry to hear about you MC I know what you mean, why is it that some people can get pregnant without even trying, its so not fair But your not out till the arrives and it is still early, keep us updated

 

[4boys1girl]

katestar...have u tested? what gtests do u prefer.so far i have been using the internet cheapoes. tested again today with FMU and again...,BFN

 

[Afamilygal]

Hey Kate! Odd about your temps, your doing them with the same thermometer the same way at the same time everyday at the same time before you pee at least 4 hours into sleep? I woke up early this morning and DH and spoke and I took temp even though it was a little under an hour early and it read 98.1 so I went back to sleep and retested at right time and it was 98.3 which it has been for the last 2 days. So even talking or sleeping with mouth open can affect the reading. Unless you do it vaginally. I hear that is the best way actually.
But maybe you ov'd late Tuesday and it is tomorrow that your temp will drop, don't worry about it dearie! Everything is totally normal. Hey maybe that's a good sign and your egg fertilized and that's why it didn't drop yet! Hooray for that thought!!!

No more signs. Me thinks that was all in my head stupid 2 ww... It's crawling by this month!!! Yowsa...

And to kat- sorry it's been tough but try to stay positive! 9 dpo is too early for a lot of women... What dpo are you now?

Bye for now ladies of the thread!

 

[4boys1girl]

I am now 10 DPO. Dr. called today bc I had bloodwork on day 24 of my cycle to check progesterone level (and we also added an hcg just in case). The day I had the blood work done I was 8 DPO. Progesterone = normal. And they said I am NOT pregnant. Could a blood test be wrong at 8 DPO? I am trying to cling on to every string of hope

 

[Afamilygal]

Hi Kat! I found this on the subject. (read below) seems unlikely that you were pg then (at 8 wks) but it was pretty early so if the implantation doesn't occur until later- say day 10 -12, then you wouldn't know until a few days AFTER that.
I would try to stay calm, no reason to let go of hope all together but take Kate's advice and if you dont get your HTP at 14dpo then treat yourself to something special- like a massage or a manicure.
Rejuvinate your body and mind and get into the frame of mind to try again. It WILL HAPPEN and heck- maybe it will happen this month. It will happen when it is supposed to. I really REALLY believe that each of is are meant to meet certain people at certain times and its all part of something SO much bigger than anything we can really understand. and when you DO get your baby, you will be soooo grateful and happy making you a fabulous mommy. Im sorry you r feeling so down about it but youre NOT OUT YET!!!

I meant to ask- do you do all the BBT and CM charting, use monitors, etc.. ?

afamilygal... thanks for that reply, it was super supportive I know it will happen, eventually, just wish it were now, lol. I never did BBT before bc I didn't think I needed to. I know when I ovulate so I thought it was pointless. But now I have learned there is alot more to read about BBT like the dips and rises and what they mean. So I will chart this cycle. I always monitor my CM, but never chart it. I check my cervix ALL THE TIME too. I DO use OPKs just to make sure I am right about when I ovulate. thanks for the link, I'll check it out.

Good evening ladies (its evening here in rainy old England, still the afternoon for you guys!!)

How are you both doing? A lady at work has revealed she is 15 weeks pregnant today I would of been the same if I hadnt of MC, oh well, onwards and upwards, it was just the sight of her bump that got me, I want a bump so soooooooo BAD!!! I honestly cant wait to be preggo, to have the excuse to buy lots of new clothes that will accomate the baba

4boys1girl - I usually use IC but apparentlythat are rubbish so have been using superdrug tests, dont think you guys can get them in the states but they are super sensitive. Only 14 days to test....... It seems so far away

Afamilygal - Hows the 2ww bearing up? I am taking my temp at 8am every morning before I get out of my bed,k is that the right way to do it? Are you meant to get up during the night and take it?

Have a lovely evening every one, am off to cook dinner, pork chops, yummy

Katestar...I am ok. thanks for asking. I know how u feel about other turning up preggo. I feel happy for them but then get sooo down on myself. one friend at work just told us she is too. i dont know what to think about IC. its all i been using, but never had a positive, so I dont know. my 2ww wait is almost over i suppose ill get AF somewhere between fri and sun. I will call my doc on 1st day of cycle and schedule a hysterosalpingogram. the last test to see if something is wrong before i move on to an infertility specialist. still have small thread of hope that AF doesnt arrive (but thats very small bc i dont feel preggo symptoms). we'll see. try and keep busy these 2ww. fingers crossed for you

 

[Afamilygal]

WHOA! I posted yesterday. I long ass post too. WTF?! where is it???

Hi Hun, hope your having a nice day Will you test again with another brand? Have you any symptoms? Dont give up yet sweetie, can you feel the witch coming? FX you you hun? Can I just ask what a hysterosalpingogram is? How long have you been TTC for? (Sorry lots of questions!!)

 

[Afamilygal]

Kate ma dearie! what about your temps today? youre killing me kid! gotta keep a sista updated! Im going NUTS on day freaking 6. 6!!! time is moving at a slooooow craaaawl theeeese daaaaays. BAH! I feel like I ovulated 2 weeks ago!

NUTS! and I want a BEER... STAT!!!

yowsa- ok, rant over. I feel better. but seriously, I want to go pee on a stick right freaking now. which would be beyond dumb and I tell myself that and then a couple hours later Im like "hmmm... maybe I should POAS..." NUTS!!!

and symptoms- aint got any. Im tired (but I also have allergies and its so HOT these days who isnt tired?) and Ive been really REALLY cranky. but that happens once in a while.

OH! since my other post from yesterday night was erased (or never posted- grumble grumble) I wanted to say to Kate that I know how awful it is to see someone at he same stage that you would be... its super hard and Im sorry
I found out a friend of mine was pg at 15 wks (when I would have been) and when I saw her lovely little bump I wanted to cry- I felt like the wind got knocked out of me. now she is getting ready to have her little girl in a month and she is HUGE and looks amazing. Im less jealous that I was but it still hurts... Its take time to not feel envious cause the fact is they have something that we want so badly...
BUT you will have your baby- and he/she will be SO adorable and lovely and you are going to be the one with the big old bump wondering "how is THAT going to come out of THIS?!" soon enough my love!!! you too Kat!

and Kat- sorry to hear you arent feeling positive about this but some women have little or no symptoms at all, it aint over till the fat lady sings!!!

and about BBT- this link should help. you just need to have been asleep for 3 or 4 hours in a row without peeing or talking. I spoke with DH early yesterday and took my reading (1 hour earliy) and it was 98.1 and then went back to sleep for an hour and did temp again 1 hour later and it was 98.3 (which it has been for a couple of days) so as you can see- even talking or sleeping with your mouth open can affect the reading...
ALRIGHTY! Im off to go swimming cause I am roasting!

Later alligators!

 

[Afamilygal]

hey!!! sorry, we were posting at the same time! YAY! Im glad your temp went up. knew it would!! heres my chart
