Early 30's TTC #1

[Crumbs]

I went to bed so early today and now I'm up in the middle of the night! I'm still trying to ignore the TWW and up until yesterday, did a really good job of it (I have my National Swedish test that came a whole month earlier than it should of, to thank for it).

But I passed it doesn't really mean too much but it feels bigger than it is because I get to go to a new school should I continue to study the language! But I am in no way proficient.

It's my bro-in-law's birthday tomorrow and hopefully we'll find something to do that'll make the weekend pass quickly. I hope the doesn't come.

Wow MrsMax and Crumbs - your charts look awesome!!!

Sorry about the BFN Rosa - I was so hopeful that you were going to lead the way in some new BFPs.

MrsPTTC - hope you get some answers on Monday - triplets does sound a bit scary!

Off to a conference on Wednesday. AF is due sometime around Thursday or later (it keeps changing since I have been charting with FF). Not feeling it this month so truly expecting AF to arrive and ruin my day on Thursday (cramps ).

Not likely to have time to log on again before I leave (super busy at work at the moment) so have a great week and to everyone. Maybe there might be some BFPs when I log on next (FX'd!!)

 

[mrsmax]

Well, I tested and got a BFN - but it is only 9 DPO so not that convinced either way yet.

My temp is still super high and when I naughtily add the same temp tomorrow I get "Triphiasic" (sic) on FF. I dont want to temp fate - but my chart is classi preggo chart. I will hate, hate, hate charting and FF if i have high temps tomorrow but turns out not pregnant.

Not sure what to do about partytonight now - to drink or not to drink? Test so BFN, but body and chart says BFP....? I guess not drink...

Crumbs - well done on your test. Hope you find something to keep you busy over the weekend. I am going to be going crazy too - we can be crazy together!

Rosa - hope you find some peace this weekend.



Hopeful - thanks for explaining about my chart - I hadnt realised I can see people's through FF. Am off for a sneak look now.

mrsmax, I am loving your temp this morning! 9 DPO is still super early. I'll definitely be checking your chart tomorrow morning.

As for me, I think I'm out. My temp fell this morning but I had restless sleep and not enough of it. Still, I'm preparing myself and trying to look forward to Maca next cycle.

I'm off to a day of shopping and then a birthday party. DH and I couldn't go back to sleep after the alarm went off after checking my BBT, so I think I'll stick to my No Temping on weekends rule. So I'll live live vicariously through your chart! Go,go,go Go,go,go!!!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Congratulations on your exam result crumbs!

Thanks msjmouse, see you soon.

Fab chart mrsmax! I am drink til its pink person & have read the fetus doesn't take anything from the mother for a few weeks. I usually test before a night out too if I'm 10dpo or onwards but if I get a bfn i consider myself out x

 

[hopefulmama2b]

Crumbs- congrats on passing the test!! And sorry for the temp drop this morning. Maca sounds like a good idea to try something new!

MrsJ- Hope the conference is a good one! Sometimes I like going to them, most of the time I don't! I hope since you're least expecting it this will be your month!

MrsMax- Awesome chart! As for drinking, I know a lot of people that follow the "Drink til it's Pink" rule like MrsPTTC. I just try to limit it- like maybe one glass of wine instead of three (or more!). I think moderation is good! And 9 dpo is super early. I'm glad to hear that you're still hopeful because you should be!

AFM- expecting to o today. I have honestly never had so much ewcm! I'm hoping this is a good sign! Do you guys always O at roughly the same temperature? I do, I thought it was weird, but maybe everyone does that

 

[Crumbs]

You ladies are so sweet, thank you! This is actually the only place I've announced I passed my test, except for my Mom and BFF back home, everyone I know around here is in my class and my Swedish isn't all that great to announce it to the in-laws!

As for trying to lay low and not stress, I failed miserably. Last night I changed my mind and decided to temp afterall but then woke up in the middle of the night, and couldn't get back to sleep. So I stuck to the original plan and turned the alarm off. It feels so good to sleep in!!

I usually check at 6:00 but when I checked at 2:45 and then again at 7:45, it was still decent temps (not below my coverline). I know both of those temps can't be considered but now I still have hope.

MsJMouse, nice rise today! Fx!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Mrsmax your temp today means triphasic doesn't it??

Crumbs I'm pleased your temps are still ok, I've took them at funny times before too, and yes they're not 'proper' temps but I'm sure they'll not be that far off so FXd for you! It does give you hope.

I might temp this cycle up to ovulation as my scans will tell me if I've definitely ovulated so it'll be interesting to see how my chart compares. I went to a wedding party with DH last night, got a little tipsy & tried to seduce him but he was having none of it until my scan tomorrow to see how many follicles are there! x

[mrsmax]

Hi MrsPTTC - yes, my first ever triphasic. I am trying not to read anything into it....Ok, that's a lie. I'm sure I'm pregnant. I feel it and my chart is just too dmn good - BUT after 17 months TTC I know I need to wait until AF is due before getting too excited....

I laughed out loud about your failed seduction. GL tomorrow with the scan - let us know how it goes. Fxd.

Crumbs - I always experiment with temping at odd times to see how different they would be from my BBT - the honest answer is not very, so Im not sure it matters so much if you miss it by an hour or so.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Oooo you feel prego that's great! When are you next testing? I really hope that 3rd follicle has stopped growing, I would be gutted if we had to prevent this month as I've got a good feeling the clomid will be my miracle cure sometime over the next 3 months! I've got my head around the prospect of twins but triplets would be impossible for us financially, hence why DH wouldnt DTD last night! X

 

[mrsmax]

Triplets would be a bit much. I can see why DH resisted

Testing tomorrow AM. Last BFP I only got a very faint line the day AF due and was only when 1 day late I got a strong positive, so wont really know until Wed...

 

[hopefulmama2b]

MrsMax- Nice looking triphasic you have there! Good luck tomorrow morning!

MrsPTTC- I have my fingers crossed that there's only two follies tomorrow so you guys can give it a good go! Funny about your attempted seduction last night! I can totally see me tipsy, thinking- "Three is totally do-able, DH. Lets give it a go!" Ya, right!! It's do-able if you have to, but not ideal. FX!

Crumbs- Still above cover line is great!

AFM- 1 dpo today I think even though it was a wimpy small temp rise. I think it was still yesterday as I had my usually ovulation day temp and had o pains. I think DH is done dtd for a while. I think I've wore him out! I just really wanted to give it one last good go before possibly moving to IUI. COME ON BFP!!! Also I had TONS of ewcm this month!

 

[Crumbs]

11 cycles TTC + 1 cycle NTNP. I finally got a ! FRER at 13DPO. It came up right away. I started crying. Showed DH, he's ecstatic! I can't believe it. I hope it sticks and hope the little nub growing inside of me is healthy!

My symptoms, aside from the sore BB's I always have, none really. Although the pains I normally have in my tummy weren't pains this time, not even twinges really, almost felt like gas but not really.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Omg crumbs I'm so happy for you hun!!! Praying it will be a healthy sticky bean!

Hopefully some good news from mrsmax soon!

Lol at hopeful, that pretty much sums up sat night, of course triplets sounded a good idea when I was drunk!!

I couldnt sleep last night, I don't know if it was the excitement of todays scan or if its cos I had an hours nap at teatime last night. Will update on my scan later. Xx

 

[mrsmax]

Crumbs - that is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I didnt realise you were so close to testing. Did you hold out til 13 DPO?

You must be soooo excited. Yay - knew your chart loked good

I did a FRER this AM at 11 DPO and got BFN. I still feel like I am in with a chance though - my temps still high. Will wait now until Wed AM.

 

[mrsmax]

Mrs PTTC - good luck with the scan today.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Thanks mrsmax, temps still great so FXd for wed for you! X

 

[pink80]

Congratulations Crumbs

Good luck with the scan Mrs PTTC

FX'd for you MrsMax xx

 

[MrsPTTC]

Just got out, they're all over with so bloody quick you get no time to ask questions!! So I saw them measure 2 follicles & they were about 12-14 cm each so not ready to ovulate yet, Ive read they need to be 20cm to be ready for ovulation. So I've got to go back wed for another measurement. I didn't actually ask about the 3rd one but assume its gone with them only measuring 2. She couldn't see any eggs on the left behind the cyst, which they say is definitely nothing to worry about. x
