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

[Sheece]

Thanks girls

Must have been a dodgy frer. Nothing this morning & FF finally gave me crosshairs! On Monday, so we are covered at least.

Stupid flu. There is still a chance I ovulated earlier but it does look more promising that I ovulated on Monday.

My 12w US pic attached.


Sheece - my next OB appointment is next week. I had my last appointment with my RE this week. I can't believe I've graduated to only needing my OB. As for your test, I can't be sure I see anything. But now that you have some solid CH's maybe you're still too early. FX !


Broody - I wouldn't worry about progesterone if it was 27 before. Mine was 5 at 7-8DPO, and my BFP was at 10DPO, they put me on progesterone asap when I called and made me come in every 48 hours to test because they said they wanted to see it rise above 25 to be "safe" so I think you're good at 27, at least while you wait for the test results.

Whimsical - I do have a few pics of my most recent US. I've attached. It's finally looking like a real baby in there!!

 

[Sheece]

Look at your baby! Too cute xx

 

[broodymrs]

Thank you angel. I'm hoping that's the csse.

That's a shame sheece but at least you now have crosshairs!

 

[Whimsical88]

oh angel that is the most beautiful picture ever. you can finally make out hands, legs, head and body. too precious. as for symtoms, anything lingering from first tri? anything new?
hows all the peeing going?

sheece that test was a funny test. you did O later this month but thankfully not as late as last cycle. and with the dbing, you are covered for this month.

Etis how have you been doing? preggy symptoms much?

 

[broodymrs]

Progesterone levels satisfactory. Don't know the specific number but over 30 so all ok.

Lovely pic Angel!

 

[Angel5000]

Thanks everyone! I'm so happy!

We're going camping for the long weekend with my sister and her kids. I'm excited because we love to camp but I'm not looking forward to midnight bathroom breaks! I've had to get up to go to the bathroom every night for the last few weeks, and I'm sure I'll keep doing it while camping which is such a hassle! Especially because we are sleeping on an airmattress in the back of our truck and I'll have to climb out over the tail gate every time I have to get up!


Whimsical - Thanks! No real symptoms hanging around. I've got round ligament pain, which is incredibly annoying, and having to pee often! I can't imagine what 3rd Tri is going to be like once baby starts kicking my bladder! The major thing I Have right now is "baby brain". I seriously can't seem to remember anything!

Broody - so glad that your progesterone levels are good!

 

[Sheece]

Great news about your progresterone levels Broody!!

dpo 4 today for me, and my third day of sore boobs Still getting random bits of ewcm too, hoping that's a good sign. Hoping for a temp dip in the next couple of days for implantation! Last time it dipped on 4dpo but it didn't this time. Hopefully that means its a stronger little eggy and its building strength up longer

 

[Whimsical88]

oh Sheece im sending you so much fairy dust. hope this is your month.

Angel you better be ultra careful getting in and out of the truck. maybe wake DH so he can help the two of you.
the peeing sounds like a nightmare. i normally wake once every night to pee. its normal and im used to it. my sleep doesnt even break much but dare i wake up a second time to pee. no sleep after that even if its at 3am so i can imagine how disturbing it will be.
hopefully you dont turn out to be one of the ones that laugh and pee. do your keegles. help those muscles stay in check!

 

[Angel5000]

Sheece - I'm sending you all the baby dust I can!!! Don't be disappointed if you don't get a clear implantation dip. I don't think it happens every time. My temps dropped on 5 and 6DPO and then stair stepped (up, down, up, down) until my bfp. And then I stopped temping (about 16dpo) because they were slowly going down a fraction of a degree at a time and I was making myself paranoid!


Whimsical - I'll be careful. I think we are going to buy some mosquito netting befre we go out of town and leave the tailgate down so I can get in/out easier. I usually do fairly well, I'm pretty agile, but I've been more clumsy lately and DH doesn't want me to have to worry about it. I told him I'll probably wake him up regardless because walking around in the dark to find the bathroom at a campground we've never been to makes me nervous. I don't like the dark and I easily get disoriented so me wandering around at 3am could be bad. Plus, I've been watching way too much criminal minds lately

I'm starting to do kegels. My sister swore by them with her last pregnancy and swore it's the reason she "returned to normal down there". I've never had a lot of wake up in the middle of hte night stuff, so this is driving me bonkers. Sometimes I go back to sleep okay but sometimes not. When I wake up twice (like last night) I don't go back to sleep for about 2 hours. That works n the summer but come school year I'm going to be one cranky teacher.

 

[broodymrs]

Waking up in the night is awful!

:babydust: sheece

 

[Sheece]

Ive been trying to remember to do kegals but they are so uncomfortable lol

Thanks for the baby dust ladies! Im hoping its worked as my temp dipped this morning! i know it doesnt mean implantation, but its definitely helping my positivity plan this cycle hehe

 

[abennion]

Well, CD25 and still no O. I'm more than a little concerned, typically I O around CD17-19. Good thing we have our appointment next week!

 

[Whimsical88]

Abe you really need to check why you never O yet. That doc better have some answers and a plan as to what you have to do next.

angel....i too hate darkness. DH has to go with me anything darkness. Glad your DH will go with you too,that would really help. How has he been with the pregnanncy so far? No chatting when you toilet break, that wakes you up. I hope you can get used to the waking and sleeping because you will be a cranky teacher and that will not make the kids any easy to deal with.

i never remember to do kegels. You just feel so constipated for those seconds holding. I have to remeber to start doing them.

 

[Sheece]

I had another huge temp dip this morning - nearly a full degree! Woke up feeling periody too but its too early for that (8dpo). I'm thinking I might have slept with my mouth open as my nose was a bit blocked this morning, so that might account for some of the drop.

Stark white bfn this morning, but my boobs are still sore (and have been since 1dpo) so trying to keep positive!

How are you ladies?

 

[abennion]

Still no crosshairs for me... Hoping theyll be coming tomorrow! Took a test for the heck of it, just because it's so weird I haven't gotten a strong temp surge yet. Thoughts?

 

[broodymrs]

Is it a hpt abe? Have you got a dry pic?

 

[abennion]

It is an hpt. Here's the dry one.... I think I'm calling it a BFN.

 

[Sheece]

I did see something shadowy I thought. It's a confusing one. Are you going to test again tomorrow, that might give you more of an idea?

 

[broodymrs]

Maybe a hint of a shadow. Tbh I didn't get an obvious bfp on those until the early response ones had been positive for days. I really don't rate them for sensitivity
