CD2 Anyone

[Khigg19]

DH and I ended up just buying through the marketplace. You guys should be ellegible for special enrollment because of the job change. Just something to think about

Hello all, Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. Hope you all are enjoying your weekend!

Getting bummed again. Felt good when I got my period since our insurance is gone now, but as the days pass, Im getting sad again. The worst part I was planning to go to the doctor in August and now we shouldnt have our insurance until January. Trying to be positive I said well maybe that takes the pressure off until January, but then I get negative and say or maybe we'l try for nothing until January. Dont mean to bring anyone down, our weekend was nothing. I worked and bbq tonight. Next week I only work 3 days and off all weekend, should be better. How is everyone else feeling?

I'm sorry you're feeling down! Please never worry that you're bringing anyone down; we're all here to listen and support each other!

We had a poker game at our house with my husband's family and surprised my mother-in-law with a birthday cake (her birthday is actually next weekend). It was really fun, but she kept saying in front of everyone, "I know they're just waiting until my birthday to tell me they're pregnant" and "That's all I want". I'll feel really bad if we don't end up getting the BFP. :/

JJ, never worry about bringing us down. I think this is the one place we can let our crazy out and our worries out without judgement. I know things are rough now but I am a firm believer that everything does work out even though the road to working it all out isn't always easy. I stress a lot about things at home and I think about stopping this whole process sometimes. Then I tell myself that people have babies all the time in not ideal situations and they figure it out and make it work (followed by grumbling to myself about all those who just get pregnant by accident so easily LOL). I know this is something that I want with all my heart so I am done putting it off for the right time.... I did that for a long time and here we are in the right time with no peanut. So ultimately do whatever your heart is telling you and the rest will fall into place.

Karen, If my mil said that to me I probably would have had to work very hard not to be rude to her on her birthday. I put so much pressure on myself and depending on the time of the month if someone pressures me I get a little sarcastic. My in-laws have pressured me since the day we got married. No one on his side of the family knows we are trying. If they knew it would be a constant question and after 12 months of this I don't need any help feeling bad or crying from anyone. Though, I think it would be AWESOME if you could give her her wish because a bfp is a GREAT gift!! Got all my fingers and toes crossed

My weekend was filled with a lot of nothing and it was great! It was nice not to go anywhere or do anything. I got some time in with the neighbors and did some cleaning as well. Finally got my positive opk this morning so... here we go again I have my hopes up waaaaaaaaaaay to much this month... it may be a little rough at the end of the month.

 

[Karen916]

Thank you. It does weigh on me a little bit, but I know it comes from a place of love. She absolutely adores my DH and having him was the happiest thing that ever happened to her, and I know she can't wait for us to experience it, too. She's also been lonely since he moved out of her house, and this would cheer her up so much.

We'll see!!!

 

[jjbubbles28]

Shouldn't you be testing soon Karen?

 

[Karen916]

I'm going to test tomorrow! I will be 13dpo tomorrow, which is the day I got my BFP last time. I'm excited, but sooo nervous!

 

[Fellowes79]

Good luck, Karen!

 

[jjbubbles28]

Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[nomorewaiting]

Good luck Karen!!! Happy happy thoughts heading your way this morning!

 

[Karen916]

Thanks so much for the best wishes, everyone!

Well, it looks like my mother-in-law is going to have a great birthday after all - I am pregnant!!!

To my surprise, the ClearBlue Digital said 2-3 weeks! I guess I may have ovulated a few days earlier than FF had decided on (originally it was July 1, but it changed to the 2nd and then the 3rd based on prolonged ewcm). So I guess July 1 may have been the lucky day - Happy Canada Day indeed!

I also got my first ever reliable, clear line on an Internet cheapie! Previously, all lines I'd ever gotten last time, as well as one on Sunday, didn't show up until shortly after the allotted 5 minutes, and were fairly faint, so I never knew if they were real positives or just evaps. This one, however, showed within a couple minutes and is super clear.

We are so very happy and thankful and excited!!!

I know you ladies will get your BFPs soon, too! I can't wait for us to all experience this together.

 

[nomorewaiting]

AAAAHHHH!!! CONGRATS!! I am so excited for you! Happy and healthy 9 months to you and your peanut!

(I admit I was stalking the page because I was really hoping you would be up soon with good news!)

Were there any symptoms this month that gave you an inkling?

 

[Karen916]

Thanks so much for the support!!!

Pretty much all along, I felt like I probably was, because I had nearly every single symptom I had before my BFP last time:

*Very easily tired
*Waking up sweating during the night, and getting very hot doing just simple things like working in the kitchen
*Sore and tingly nipples, and more recently, sore boobs/underarms
*Bloating and terrible gas (sorry for TMI, lol)
*Increasingly large appetite; recently, I'd finish my plate of dinner, and feel like I hadn't had a bite
*Some pulling/pinching/twingy feelings in the lower abdomen
*Headaches
*A huge pimple about a week after I ovulated (I rarely get pimples, but when I do, it's either at O time or during my period, not in between)

And, unlike last time, I also had a teeny bit of spotting about a week after I ovulated, and the next day I had some random pains in the uterus area. I am hoping that these were signs of a stronger, more secure implantation than last time!

I was starting to feel pretty doubtful last night, though, because my cramps were getting more AF-like, but that made the BFP even more joyous, since it felt like more a surprise!

 

[Fellowes79]

Karen, woo hoo! That's great news! Congrats
Cheers to a happy and healthy 9 months!

 

[jjbubbles28]

YAY Karen! So happy for you guys! Hope this sends good vibes to the rest of us

 

[Karen916]

Thank you! I hope it does, too!

 

[Fellowes79]

Does anyone spot? I usually do about a week before AF. I started yesterday but it's VERY faint and barely there. My BBs also feel like they are going to fall off. I know AF is probably around the corner but I'm trying not to lose hope!

 

[Khigg19]

Congrats Karen!! When will you tell your MIL? this one sounds like a sticky bean. Did you test early?

As for me, I've just entered my tww. DH and I put an offer in for our first home and it was accepted so in addition to waiting for my BFP, I'm now waiting for loans to be approved so we can move fun stuff!

 

[nomorewaiting]

Fellows, I don't spot before af except sometimes the day or morning before but I attribute that to the b**** arriving lightly. When are you due for her arrival? Can your spotting be possibly implant? Are the painful girls a new thing for you? I don't get much pain just a few times in the last year of me scrutinizing everything my body does. Lots of positive things going on

Khigg, Congrats on the house!! I hope that all falls right into place. I'm right along with you in that tww! I probably ovulated 2 or 3 days ago.

There seems to be a change in the juju here with some happy news.... Let's all keep it going
