Cycle 9
CD1

Think im right behind u had some spotting looks like just us to do it now come we can do it this cycle

tbh, my hope has been wavering. nine months and no pregnancy. it's not lookin good.

If you are concerned can you call your Dr? Maybe they could run some tests. I know how hard it is hang in there!

i have decided to wait on that yet. my chart is looking normal. we have to pay 100% until we reach $9000, so it will be very costly for us to get tested. bloodwork shouldn't be too much, but internal scan will set us back. gonna have to save up for a bit to pay for it.dh business is slower in winter so i don't want to put the pressure of paying these bills on him right now. come spring things will pick up for him, so the plan is to go then.

Well for what it is worth the only thing we did different this cycle was we had sex less often. DH kept telling me that we were doing it too much and I wouldn't believe him. We only dtd the day before and the day of O this cycle. I am not sure if that is what did it for us or not, but it is the only thing that was different!

i did try that too. dh was NOT happy about it. i will try to do that again this cycle. i do have a tilted uterus. didn't prevent me from having ds, but i've read that you should lay on your belly instead of back for this cause it can all pool behind the cervix. maybe i've been inadvertently killing off all the

I called my ob/gyn... I have my first appointment setup for the 7th of Feb. I'll be 5 weeks and 4 days along.... which is ironic and kind of scary because that's the same as when I lost my first.
I'm so scared that the same thing is going to happen to me, or that'll I'll miscarry. Every time I go to the washroom I check the TP, I don't think I've ever scrutinized so many bits of tissue.
At the very least, I'm just about out of when AF would normally be here... so that's good.

But yeah... I feel good. I'm still getting little twinges and cramps (really low and mild)... kinda worried about those, did any of you ladies have that around this time?

And yeah... I've got a few symptoms. Sore bbs, tired (majorly), hungry and smell aversions, cranky lol...

Colta- I just realized we will have the same due date! My LMP was 12/29 also

Well, I have had a bit of a scare today. I have been having brown spotting all afternoon. I called my Dr. office up and the nurse thinks it is from sex, so I was told to rest and put my feet up this weekend and no sex for a week. I got my blood test results and my hcg went up to 138, so it quadrupled in 48 hrs. This is a little reassuring, I am just hoping the spotting stops soon. I go in for another blood test Monday.

great news twinkie!
try not to worry. brown blood is old blood and nothing to worry about. and yes, it can be caused from bd. your cervix is very sensitive right now and lots more blood is in being sent to that area during pregnancy.

OK, I have promised myself this is the last FRER I am taking LOL... this was yesterday afternoon, 13dpo.

HAHA! That's great! I can't believe we have the same due date... lol.

As for the spotting... brown is old and your numbers are great! I betcha it's just your cervix being a bit irritated. You're doing so well, I hope my numbers are as great as yours.... so scared this might be another ectopic.

 

[Twinkie210]

Will your Dr. do blood tests? I thought that it was a good way to monior for an ectopic...

 

[mailcmm]

Ok just finished catching up.... Omg congrats colta. I knew it i just knew it. Lol I am so happy for you. That is fabulous.

We want a pic of the test.

Twinkie.... I know how scary the spotting can be. Remember I spent Xmas eve in the ER and it all turned out fine. Moter is right brown blood is old blood. And your numbers are fabulous. Such great news.

Fabulous that y'all will have the same due date.

Moter... Sorry the witch got you. But ya know what.... Next month is yours and televisions month. I know it the way I knew we would have at least one bfp this month. Because us girls have hung in from the start of this thread and it's gonna be our lucky thread.

Television... You're not quite out yet girl hang in there.

[mailcmm]

Colta... I have had period like cramps since before my bfp. Everyday all day. Lol so yes it's normal. And as for ectopic ... Just make each pregnancy is a healthy pregnancy until something goes wrong your mantra. It helps... A little lol. I am still checking the tp.

 

[mailcmm]

That's the spirit. I really do have high hopes for you this cycle. No pressure lol

all i can do it keep trying and see what happens.

 

[mailcmm]

Gosh I have a busy day and don't get online and so much happens.

As for me.... I got my dress for our wedding. Its perfect and they had a baby bump to use while I tried on dresses. It will be perfect. Especially since we are eloping. I will probably have it shortened but haven't totally decided yet. So excited. Here's a link. I am getting it in champagne not grey though.

Oh, I love it! It is so gorgeous!!!
P.S. I like it long

 

[mailcmm]

Thanks. I really love it. It was funny trying stuff on. I dragged my mom too. She was no help as she liked everything. Lol

 

[BERDC99]

Dont know whats uo with me. My left foot is swollen for the second night in a row. I dont eat alot of sodium and I sit all week at work. Tomorrow is going to suck cause I have to do hair and will be standing on it all day.

 

[mailcmm]

That's wierd. I had a night or two where my hands turned blue. This is the weirdest pregnancy. Try filling a bucket with hot Epsom salt water. Maybe that will help as well as sleeping with it elevated.

Yup... I think that is the plan. He'll probably do some blood work and I think we'll be getting an early ultra sound... (probably the same day as my appointment, considering when my ectopic was found).... so yeah, I hope we get that ultrasound soon.
