Cheers to BFPs in 2-0-1-6!

BabyForIris - oooh, you should put your chart in your signature if you're comfortable with that. As you might have guessed, I love looking at other people's charts!

I'd love to. I just have yet to figure out HOW! LOL

Do I share my charting home page? I can't figure out how to do it.

 

[Jezika]

Hmmm, yeah, it was a little bit tricky. I think you go to sharing, setup and then "Get sharing code/buttons" and use the "bbCode" one. I think that's if you're using the new layout. I hope that makes sense! And then copy and paste the code into your signature.

Well here is my test from two days ago, kinda can see a shadow if you contort your eyes haha - I took one yesterday too, butyou can't see anything on the photo! I swear there was something shadowy in real life though. I'm not reading too much into it, last month I got shadowy lines too and definitely wasn't pregnant then!

Didn't test today because I only have a digi left and I don't want to waste it! If I don't get a positive tomorrow, then surely I'm out and my AF is just playing silly buggers with me like the rest of this cycle did!

 

[abennion]

When did you take the photo Sheece? It looks like an evap line or an indent (frer's are notorious for indents). It needs to have colour to count.

 

[Sheece]

That was within the timeframe, but yeah I'm pretty sure it was nothing going from past experiences!

I say I never want to use FRER's again but I buy them every time ha ha.

 

[Angel5000]

I got my blinky smiley yesterday and today ! managed to BD yesterday and going to try every day through the weekend. I'm feeling ambitious. Lol. If experience is anything to go on today's temp rise will be a fall tomorrow and I'll get my solid smiley tomorrow afternoon or Friday. I typically O on the day of the +OPK so I want as many little guys waiting up there as possible before the egg drops. I keep imagining I'm creating an army of sperm to attack my egg

Jezika that's exactly how I feel about temping. Lol. I do love to watch my graph change, but I'm a math teacher so that stuff is right up my alley.

Yay thank you!

Got it to work Now you can see the madness that is my mountain range of a chart. Ha ha

 

[Jezika]

Sheece - have you tested again?

BabyForIris - yay, I can chart stalk! It's looking good, in my limited experienced. I think it's totally okay for it to be up and down. FF still does its magic.

Angel - I'm loving your optimism! Btw, how did the court case go yesterday? ETA: Nevermind - I'm about to read it on another thread!

AFM - I might cave and do an IC today, but I peed not long ago so I'm going to wait a while. I know a BFN is probably inevitable and I will just feel disappointed, but I'm having a LOT of creamy CM at the moment and even though I know that can happen before AF too, apparently slightly more women have it before BFP. I promised myself I wouldn't test early OR symptom spot, argh! I've never had good self-restraint...

 

[Sheece]

Well girls I'm out, AF showed up last night

I'm sad but trying to look at the positives. Which are mainly that I think my new prenatal vitamin is doing wonders for my cycle. Two days after I kicked the old one to the curb started it, I finally ovulated (could be a coincidence), but all the CM I had in the TWW that I thought was more than usual, is probably just the normal amount I should be having usually! And my post O temps were higher than usual too.

AND I had a 14 day LP, something I haven't had since at least 2012, so I'm hoping this cycle will continue the trend & I'll have a somewhat normal pre ovulation length too!

I hope so anyway, this cycle was horrible, don't want to have to do it again!



Angel - fingers crossed you catch that egg!!

Jezika - GL for the test!

 

[Angel5000]

I got news today that one of my students from last year took her life last night. I am in complete shock and heart break.

Jezika Thanks for asking, I'm sure you saw on the other thread but it wasn't as helpful as we hoped. It turned out to just be prelim so we have to go back for actual trial. We didn't even get to say anything so it was really a waste of the day off, if you ask me. :/ A 15 minute court appearance just to be told we'll have to come back for a trial after the crazy uncle files his paperwork. Ugh!

Sheece which prenatals are you taking? Sorry about AF but at least you managed a 14 day lp. That is always good!

 

[broodymrs]

So sorry Angel. That's terrible

Sheece I want to know what prenatals you're on too!

Got my day 3 blood results. All normal except high prolactin (explains the sore boobs!). Still need to have post o bloods and ultrasound though so means nothing in isolation really. Although prolactin often affects progesterone and so basically you can't sustain a pregnancy :-/

 

[wifeybby]

Hey guys, I've been reading but not posting. Just wanted to day hi and I'm still here recovering ok from laparoscopy that supposedly went excellent (per RE) so just waiting to go back for my follow up appt.

Hope we see some BFPs soon!

 

[Angel5000]

So this morning I had EW cm but this evening it seems to have changed to creamy. :/ I'm confused. I haven't O'd yet, even though I have a temp rise I think that's the one I usually get before O.

I'm thinking the stress from the news about my student is messing with me. Hoping I see temp drop again tomorrow and O coming.

 

[Sheece]

Angel I'm so sorry about your student, what a tragedy!

For the girls that wanted to know - I take Blackmores conceive well - its a bit more expensive because its only a months worth of tablets at a time (and you take two at a time) but its well worth it in my book!

Not sure if it's available outside of Australia though :/

 

[wifeybby]

Hi guys! Feels like this thread slowed way down.. Hope everyone is doing ok!

Going to my RE tomorrow for my post surgery follow up and hopefully start Provera and Clomid. Wish me luck, girls! I want this more than anything ever.

What is everyone up to?!

 

[Angel5000]

I'm doing alright, but my body is acting all sorts of crazy. Having post-O symptoms (sore/tender breasts and creamy cm) but my temps are all over the place and FF is having a hard time giving me CH. I had to throw out a couple temps to get the dotted CH I Have. Which is really annoying.

So I'm somewhere between 7-10DPO. FF says 7DPO based on the tentative CH it gave me, but I could have O'd as early as hte day I got my +OPK (which is usually what happens). My temps don't support an earlier O but they don't support much of anything right now. Between stress and the cold I now have, my temps are all over the place.

 

[broodymrs]

Hi all

Hope the meds help you wifey

Sorry about the temps Angel. I'm still reluctantly temping but I'm not s fan.

5dpo here (although ff has me at 6). Just started with cramps which is annoying as they feel like typical af cramps. Got my progesterone test on thurs so just hoping af stays away until after then at least. Sat I have my clymadia test (nice!) and sun have my ultrasound (bit cruel on Mother's Day!). So at least within a week or so I might hopefully have some answers. Dh still needs to get his swimmers tested but he's not booked in yet. I think he's probably hoping they'll treat me without him being tested but they won't so he needs to get on it. We're not trying in March anyway as we're on hol so want to properly enjoy myself and not be thinking about ttc/potentially being pregnant

 

[Jezika]

Hi loves. Update from me was an exciting BFP following by horrible CP just a week later. It unexpectedly took me to a really dark place that I'm luckily getting out of now. Not decided about whether to TTC in March but I don't have to worry about that till O comes, whenever that may be, so there's no immediate pressure to decide.

Wifey - It'll be exciting to start on Clomid/Provera! Heard many good things about it.

Angel - eesh, I'm sure the cold is really throwing off yours temps. It's annoying how temping is super reliable when everything is done in the perfect conditions, but when it's not it's just really, really confusing. Hopefully you got some good BD in anyway and covered enough bases close enough to O. And worst case scenario, hopefully next cycle will be a lot clearer.

Broody - it's good that you're getting all those tests done. I really want them done too, even though they're obviously making me wait, booo. I'm sure it'll be nice for you to have March off of TTC (and hols!). I'm tempted to do the same, minus the holiday sadly.

 

[Angel5000]

Jezika I'm glad to hear that you are coming through your dark place. Don't rush about making a decision about TTC this next cycle. You'll know whether you are ready.
