Cycle 1 day 1. Who's with me? *update* It's a girl! Congrats baby_bray!!!

[Twinkie210]

Oh my gosh, I am pretty obsessed with it too. I have to keep reminding myself to step back and relax about it. I never dreamed it would be so hard to get pregnant! I spent so many years trying NOT to get pregnant. Then when I had my son it only took 3 cycles. I thought the 2nd time would happen really quickly. Turns out, not the case.

I was the same way. I was 20 when I got pregnant with DS and needless to say me and DH weren't exactly trying. So I always assumed I was super fertile. So I spent the next 8 years trying not to get pregnant only to find out we weren't exactly as fertile as we thought! I am beginning to think DS is a miracle baby!

Well I woke up to cramping in my lower abdomen at 3:00 this morning so I think it might have been O pains, although it is hard to tell because it started in me left side and then went to the right side... weird huh?

Anyway, with any luck tomorrow I will be 1dpo!

I hope this is it for you. My pains move from side to side. I know they are ovulation pains too because I used to wind up in the ER thinking I was dying. Then they told me it was ovulation because The cramps always came the same time each month. Good little trick to have.

Well as for me ladies.... I am sick. Not with a cold but I am really nauseous. Almost threw up this am and still feel icky. Also I am napping on and off. Completely exhausted.My BBs hurt too. I have a great feeling about this. Fingers toes and eyes crossed. lol

I bet you are 1dpo today! Now just 13 days to go, unless you are an early tester like me.
Isn't it ironic how hard it's been for us to get pregnant (and stay pregnant) the second time around? It must be for a reason though. Maybe so we appreciate our second child more, or to give us a bit more time to spend with our DS's before a new baby takes up most of our time.

All of your symptoms sounds really promising! Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

 

[Twinkie210]

Well I think I am officially 1dpo! I put a fake temp for tomorrow into FF and it thinks I am 2dpo, so who knows! All I know is I am officially in my 2WW! This is the 3rd month in a row that we were able to BD on every single fertile day, so if it doesn't happen this month, I dont' know what else to do!

 

[BERDC99]

Colta....did you test again or did the witch show? I thought about you all day yesterday.

 

[mailcmm]

Morning all. We are finally all in our TWW. Congrats twinkie. Now on to testing.

Colta.... How are you girl? I am sure you are at the top of all our thoughts right now. Keep us posted.

I am so excited for all of us. I hope we all get our bfp. Hope everyone is doing ok.

I am still really worried. DH is worried too. It's so hard not to think about it happening again. At the same time I get too excited to not get my hopes up.

Well... so far not much as been happening. AF was due to day but there hasn't been a single hint of her. Usually I get a bit of spotting and some cramps the day before, but nothing.
I tested at 11dpo and got a negative, although... I did see what I thought was a hint (extreme squinter) of a line, but it could have just been line eye.

I'm not testing today... I think I'm just going to wait another day or two and see what happens. Most of my symptoms are gone-ish. Still tired, bbs are still swollen, but no where near as tender and I'm still having back pain. I have to run to the washroom a lot and I'm always hungry... but that could just be me.

I dunno, still waiting... that's where I'm at right now.

Berdc99 - how are you holding up? Feeling hopeful this cycle?

And to everyone else.. YAY! We're all in the TWW!!

Dont give up till the shows her face. I have heard of many girls not get their BFP until a few days after AF was due. It is still early and you could have implanted late and not had enough time for hcg to build up yet. My Fx are crossed for you!!

I am still on edge this cycle. I have had some very promising signs but I try not to play into them cause you can sike your self out to thinking your are pg and not really be. I have my self as 10 dpo but countdowntopregnancy only has me as 9 dpo. I have tested a few times which was very stupid of me cause 1) it is still way to early and 2) I have had a chemical before and that is very heart breaking.

The is not due here until a week from tomorrow. I hate having such a long lp but not much I can do about it.

 

[mailcmm]

Colta... You are definitely not out until the witch shows. I have a good feeling for you.

Berdc... I wish I could take a page from your book and play down my symptoms. lol I am a spotting fool. You have the right idea though.

And I know what you mean about Berdc99! I wish I could just sit back and chill about it... you have nerves of steel!

I wish I had a long LP! I understand your frustration, though. I feel like my body doesnt' even give me a chance to get pregnant before the shows!

Have you ever tried vitamin B6? It is known to lengthen your lp.

I haven't, but that might be the next thing I try. I am hoping the soy lengthens my LP by improving my egg/follicle quality.

A friend of mine had the same lp length as you. She stopped working out and her lp went to 14 days. do you work out? Also, I've read that the egg needs 10 days to implant so you should still be ok there.

Here are a couple over the counter things you can get to lengthen your lp.


There are at least two different over-the-counter remedies for a short luteal phase. The first of these is vitamin B6. This vitamin is considered safe for most women, and is taken in doses from 50 to 200 mg a day. The second over-the-counter remedy for a short luteal phase is progesterone creme. This cream is thought to lengthen the luteal phase.
