Early 30's TTC #1

[Soleil Breeze]

Yay! The ladies are back. Sooo good to hear from you, especially Pink80 (long time, girl! and I wish you all the best in the upcoming months for a pregnancy!).

I think that some of you gals have a great night planned! I'm waiting on DH to get home from out of state tonight. He should be home around 9pm; we both ate already. So no love feast tonight. I'll just be happy to see him.

So CD1 started today. You know what that means? I'll be upping the ante and taking stims in the next few days. I don't know whether that deserves a happy face or dancing emoticon, but I can tell I am soooo relieved the other cycle has ended - 42 days! My longest EVER! I tell ya, stress sure can affect the body! Going in for baseline bloodwork and the sono a day early tomorrow. Hopefully, I'll be stimming by TH or FRI night.

Rosa, I'm going to pop into your journal right now. I'm so glad that you are feeling better, and, don't worry, these things can take a while to go away unless they burst. Sorry. But this too WILL pass!

Much love to my favorite gals!

Just a quick post to say hello.

Sorry to hear about the pain from your cyst Rosa - hoping it is getting better.

MrsPTTC - sorry AF has arrived (i think I read that - sorry just skimmed the read)

Good luck Soleil.


Hoping everyone is doing okay.

Thanks Ladies

Good Luck for this cycle Soleil - got everything crossed for you

Sorry I haven't posted - I have been silently stalking you all. I've just been in a weird place - in limbo land really

I've been on Metformin since mid November, had a few side effects but I'm dealling with that. It seems to have helped my cycles though, they used to be all over the place - I ov'd anywhere from CD16 to CD35. With my three cycles since the metformin I have ov'd CD17, CD14 and CD14 again - so a big improved from what I can see.

My OH hasn't wanted to TTC though, he's too scared most of the time. We had a bit of a long discussion about it this month though and he agreed to just see what happened, but then he decided against it during the act and 'pulled out' (sorry ). Said sorry afterwards and that he just couldn't . But then on my birthday (ovulation day) he finished the job so I think he's as confused as I am!!!

Took a couple of IC on 8dpo and I thought I got a very feint positive, but the test on 10dpo was negative so I don't know what happened there.

So that's me - sorry for the ramble xxx

Hi ladies! I hope you enjoyed your Valentine's Day! It seems like everyone is in higher spirits and there's a lot of progress being made! Your time is near!

Rosa, I'm so glad to hear your baby is doing fine. I hope the cyst resolves itself soon

My anatomy scan turned out just fine (I was worried because I haven't felt any kicks or movement yet) but she's developing on time. Yes, we're having a little girl! We're over the moon and finally announced! But I'm still uneasy and taking it one day at a time. As promised, here's a pic:

Ok - so I am soooo not getting my hopes up, but....I thought I was totally out yesterday when my temps dropped to the cover line at 11DPO. Totally expected to see low temps again today. But my temps are high - they have risen .6!! AF is due tomorrow. I have never had a massive drop so late with a rise the next day. 11 DPO seems to late for implantation - so I am guessing it is just one of those random things - the reason I find it very strange is my acupunturist really felt I might be preggo thsi cycle.

So - to test today or wait for temp/Af tomorrow? I am 12 DPO so a test should be definitive....

 

[pink80]

Your chart does look good I would say though, if that was an impantation dip and 11dpo is not too late, then it could take a couple of days for a test to be positive.....

What do you want to do..?

P.S our temps are pretty much identical today

 

[mrsmax]

Hey Pink - your chart looks pretty good. When is Af due? I probably will end up testing as not sure i can cope with the dispointment first thing tomorrow if my temps take a dive. Would rather find out today I think...not sure. I have very little expectation and am really grasping at straws as IVF next month!!

 

[pink80]

I can understand that - hurry up and test then - I wanna know FX'd for you!!

My AF us due Sunday xxx

 

[mrsmax]

will sneak out and buy a test in a bit. need to concentrate my per first!

 

[mrsmax]

ppee not per

 

[pink80]

You struggling with your typing again

 

[mrsmax]

BFN. Wass expected though and glad I tested now. I find it easier to see a BFn than a drop in temps. I guess more vulnerable in the morning. Still, least I get to ring the clinic when AF arrives and get the ball rolling.

Big Hun xxx

 

[mrsmax]

I'm genuinely fine about it. Kinda used to it - being the 22nd time and all

 

[readyORnot]

 

[rosababy]

mrsmax, sorry about the bfn. What's your next step?

 

[MrsPTTC]

Hi ladies!

Welcome back Pink! GL with your testing!

Msjmouse, lovely to hear from you!

Mrsmax sorry about the BFN hun

Crumbs, love the pic! How you doing chick?

Readyornot, how are you?

Rosa, yes you are right, I have this cycle then 1 more, which will be 6 months of the clomid, then I'm back to the FS. Maybe get different drugs or IUI/IVF.

I feel like crap at the minute, down & irritable & feel like not TTC just cos I really don't think the clomid will work. We will of course TTC this month, I wouldn't waste it, but I really CBA! Don't think I can be bothered to use OPK's either & I actually feel better not knowing what CD I'm on by not updating FF (though can work it out easily) & also not taking any supplements. Just looking forward to my holiday, 12 weeks today!

How is everyone else?

[mrsmax]

MrsP - I think that is Clomid talking. It is a horrible drug. Grrrr. You are really patient - I am on second cycle on it and couldnt do many more.

Thanks for your hugs ladies. My temps stayed up again today at 13 DPO, but still BFN If she's coming, I wish AF would just get here as I have to cal the clinic on Day 1 which will probably be tomorrow not today and I have no idea if I am supposed to be continuing with my Clomid or not as I start down regging 21 days into the next cycle.

Rosa - you feeling any better hon?

We miss you Hopeful and sending tons of support and your way.

What's everyone up to this weekend? I am lecturing - boo hiss so DH is away with his buds climbing mountains. I do worry about him.
