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

Booked in to see the Dr tomorrow morning. Actually got in to see the Obstetrician at the practice instead of my normal doc, so she should be more cluey on it all at least!

CD 7 today, and day 5 on vitex, temps are very smooth, I like it! Still have AF, longest ever!
 
I'd say a long af is a good sign, having a good clear out!
 
Thats what I'm thinking Broody! Finally finishing up today I think :)

Went and saw the new DR this morning - shes an Obstetrician. The difference was amazing! She was great, asked me everything, checked out my charts explained everything & sent me to get fertility check up blood test & I'll do the CD21 test too.

Very happy I went. She said that while I'm not at 12 months yet, its good that I came in and we can put the feelers out and make sure there's nothing untoward going on in there. I'm feeling much more positive about it all now :)

Just have to wait until Tues / Wed to get results :coffee:
 
im so glad you went to the doc Sheece. those tests can tell you so much and your periods were too long for it to be normal. esp this last cycle. i cant wait to get the results. can you stick with the lady all the time now? this doc really seemed helpful and yes because you never hit the 12month mark, i know they dont like to probe if they cant see anything wrong so that parts ok. i do hope you dont have to wait so long to get preg though.

sorry your AF went so long but who knows, maybe a great sign that everything is going back to normal.

abe did you test?????? did you check if the trigger has left your system? those symtoms are very promising indeed. sending you baby dust
 
She is definitely my new doctor Whimsy, I won't see anyone else now. My old doc was good but this one is just so personable and easy going and actually interested, it really makes a difference.

I'm feeling pretty good about Vitex this cycle so fingers crossed I just needed the clean out. You do hear lots of stories about people getting fertility testing & getting pregnant on their own, so lets hope that happens to me too :)

Yes, Abe, have you tested yet?!
 
having a doctor with the right attitude sometimes feels like half the battle is won so im glad you have a new doc and now things can be different.

what did she say about the vitex and maca Sheece? did she know what the vitex is?
 
I've been back in the classroom for almost a week now (TGIF!) and I'm happy to be back,and loving my kids, though my feet are KILLING me and I'm really sore at the end of the day. :( A lot of my former students are stopping by to say hi and say how they miss me and wish they had me again for math this year ( teachers favorite thing to hear <3 ). I cut all my hair this summer to very short so I'm getting a lot of "OMG You're Hair!" and then I stand up or turn around and the follow up statement is "OMG You're pregnnat!!!?!?!!" :rofl: Word spread pretty quickly after the first two days and a lot of kids stop by just to see the bump. :haha: And then of course they're like "ooooh now we know why you missed so much school in May/June". :dohh: Apparently there was a rumor I might have cancer :dohh: Glad I Set that straight!


Sheece - 57 days is insane! So glad the Maca is helpful! Your doctor may or may not know about Maca or Vitex. A lot of regular Dr's I've seen aren't familiar with some of the more "natural/herbal" options, while others who have been working with women TTC for a longer period will have at least heard of it but may or may not be familiar with how it works. Unfortunately some doctors are a lot more open to a natural/homeopathic approach than others.

Sounds like your new dr is great! so glad she's starting testing! Honestly the cycle we did our testing is the cycle we got pregnant (DH swears it was the HSG that did it :haha: ) but I think the only reason it stuck (because 2 CPs before that) it was that the testing found the low progesterone and they were able to put me on progesterone the day after my BFP. Funny how once we started testing everything just "happened" that same cycle.


Abe - that sounds like some of the side effects I Had from progesterone. :( I'm hoping it's also your little bean snuggling in (Right after my bfp I Found I was SOO thirsty all the time, but I don't know if it was the pregnancy or the progesterone since I Went on progesterone the day after my bfp).
 
I did test, and while I'm getting the ghosty-line effect, I haven't seen anything substantial yet. Next test will be on Sunday, and if there isn't anything by then I've promised DH I will wait for the beta.
 
Wow what a rumour Angel! The kids sound sweet though coming round to see the bump :)

The dr knew about vitex! She said a few of her patients had used it and didnt say anything negative towards it or anything. I just said im using it and feeling positive about it and she was happy enough. Didnt mention the maca though, forgot about it actually but the vitex was the more important one really.

Abe - gotta hate those ghost lines :( fx for sunday - how many days will you be then?
 
Angel you making me think of when I was in school. When I was in grade 11 or 12, our teacher, who was stick thin,got pregnant and her tummy was growing and we all could see but she wouldn't say anything to us. So one day she said she has an announcement and said she is pregnant. The first q I asked her was, you think?. She had a good laugh. But between all the kids it was so much gossip. When she got preg. The years difference between her kids. Everything. But we were all happy for her. I guess it's the same for you. They all happy for you. Can you maybe try being on your feet less?we used to do alot for our teacher just to keep her off her feet.

Abe if it's light, it may still be the trigger so test Sunday but if it's still light then just wait for the beta. Less stressful to test and be unsure. You don't need stress if you preg.
 
I did test on 2DP5DT and got a clear BFN, so trigger is definitely out. Here's the comparison between the two, 2DP5DT on the left, 5DP5DT on the right:

Yay, fab news
 
Oh no angel, what an awful rumour! Glad you set them straight!

You're a strong woman waiting for sun abe. I'm not sure if I see something or not, I really hope I do!
 
At first I thought I saw but if I zoom then nothing. I don't know. I say wait till Sun. Let's hope you can get an answer then

Sending you baby dust
 
I ended up going to the washroom before I even thought to test this morning, so I'll be testing tomorrow haha. AF was due today though, and no sign of her yet, although that may be with the progesterone's help, so we'll see!
 
No AF is a good sign! Fingers crossed for tomorrow, hold that pee! :haha:
 
Still no AF, but no BFP either. DH thinks the cheapies I was using are faulty. I guess we'll find out on Saturday on way or the other!
