Soliel I am praying for you and your little bean!!!! Please keep thinking positive thoughts! And one day at a time!

Oh Soleil i truly hope that this is your sticky bean. You're in my thoughts. xo.

 

[Aisak]

Congrats Birdie!

 

[MsJMouse]

Yah good news Soleil. Amazing that you got to see a heartbeat. Fx'd that things just keep looking up.

Congrats Birdie.

Well AF is probably due on Thursday (assuming same length cycle as last month which was 2 days short). Thought I felt a bit crampy at Zumba tongiht but who knows - could have just been the way I was moving. Aim to test on the weekend if AF never arrives.

Good luck hopeful and piccolo with testing tomorrow.

My goodness, Soleil! I'm so happy for you! Hearing the heartbeat is a huge milestone. I'm keeping you and your little one in my thoughts and prayers! Enjoy your pregnancy and celebrate, regardless of the caution the doctors advise! You're pregnant and baby is where s/he should be!

Birdie!!! Congratulations!!! I hope you have a smooth pregnancy and a beautiful and healthy little one! I'm loving all the positive news lately!


Hopeful and Piccolo

Well Hopeful, I don't think I'll be testing with you. Started with the brownish discharge this morning that I always get before my period. It sucks to come down so hard after feeling positive and hopeful this month for a change. And next month I am out of town for work right when I will probably ovulate. Feeling pretty depressed today.

Btw ladies I'm not TTC until Sept. so I hope that it's okay to follow you all here. I'm 31 so I wanted to keep in touch w/ all the other fabulous women who are in their 30's.

My day feels pretty much like yours as well. I caved and took a test over lunch. There is just a hint of a line, but I know that it's the residual hcg in my system and not a new pregnancy so I just want to scream. I don't understand why it can take so effing long to get over a miscarriage.

Oh Hopeful, I'm so sorry. Fingers crossed that it's not just leftovers but an early positive.

 

[Birdie Dorf]

Thanks ladies. I didnt know that signature would show up! It is super early but hoping this one sticks. The tiniest bit of light lightest brown spotting makes me nervous (I had a hematoma last time), but maybe's that's just me...

 

[mrsmax]

Birdie - congrats and fingers crossed for a H&H 9 months. Soooo exciting.

Lots of good news for a change - so nice

Having a weird cycle this month - I always ovulate day 15 or 16, but this cycle I either ovulated day 13 or not at all...I guess a couple more temps will let me know for sure. My coverline is also lower. Wonder if acupuncture could have done this? I had lots more EWCM this cycle - but makes me nervous that I didnt ovulate!!!

Will bd tonight and tomorrow as planned - just in case, but OPKs were pretty clear. No surge today and a surge two days ago.

If anyone fancies checking my chart for me in the next couple of days and let me have your thoughts, I'd appreciate it.

 

[MsJMouse]

Not sure MrsMax. Looks like you could have o'd day 13 but my understanding is that you need three temps above your last 6 temps before you can call it. I think that is how I remember reading it - mind you my brain is mush after the last three days are work so I could be talking trash!!

Piccolo and Hopeful.

The more the merrier Hakuna.

piccolo

hakunamatata, to our little group

As for me, bad news. DH called the hospital today to follow-up on our tests (as suggested by the nurse) and was told that the next stage would be to meet with a doctor and discuss our results, but they couldn't see us until AFTER summer, that a few doctors have called in "sick" and nothing is available until August?!!!

I knew the country shuts down in July but it's still May?!!! I was warned by the nurse in our initial consultation about trying to fit us in before summer but that's the reason why we scheduled tests ASAP

If I can only speak Swedish I would bug them myself but whenever I called before it would end up as a long, drawn-out struggle to understand each other. Sigh. I haven't given up!

 

[SMFirst]

Congrats Birdie

Hopeful - don't dismay yet, there's still hope until AF arrives..

 

[mrsmax]

Crumbs - How frustrating!!

MsJ - you're right re 3 high temps so I was guessing that get three high ones in the next few days. Reason I think day 13 is that adds up to the OPKs - the OPK today was pure white and should be really dark.
We shall see. Have since googled and it seems that acupuncture can speed up ovulation - not sure if I like that...
