Early 30's TTC #1

[MrsPTTC]

Oh wait I saw it, its still a good temp! x

 

[Crumbs]

I'm never leaving my girls! Never, ever!

mrsmax, it's still early and it was only a slight dip. Fx!!!

Regalpeas, DH claims it was the fertility monitor that I took ages to finally buy that did it! Now I'm looking up their return policy!

I think you girls convinced me, I'm not telling anyone until it's safe (including my Mom, who I know would likely tell everyone).

I'm gonna be rooting all of you on!

MrsMax so sorry for the dang BFN.

Congratulations Crumbs!!!

Rosa i am so sorry. i can't imagine how you must feel. To go through all that and then BFN...i would be an absolute mess.

Crumbs !! Congrats! You're on the same TTC cycle as me - you give me some hope.

AFM...i'm always around. i look at the thread a couple times a week but i don't have a whole lot to report. i'm so tired of TTC and the emotions that go with it...i just feel like i'm whining all the time. And i know i just said that Crumbs' BFP gives me hope but approaching that year mark (this is cycle 11) is definitely making me feel like it's never going to happen for me. Boohoo.

i managed to O way later than usual this month which i don't think is a good thing. i typically O on day 13. This month, day 18! i had 10 days of highs on my CBFM before that, as if my body was struggling to O. i'm sure it has everything to do with the incredibly stressful week i was having (like, crying all the way home from work every day and having ice cream and wine for supper kind of stressful). i've had a backache and sore insides for the past couple days. That hopeful part of me wants to think it's a pg symptom, but the logical part of me thinks it's just AF or undiagnosed endo. UGH.

i'm a ray of sunshine, i know.

And i know this is a "testing" day, but technically i'm only 9dpo and i'm so sick of seeing that stark white space where a line should be. i'm not going to do it.

 

[hopefulmama2b]

Aisak. I know how you feel. Try to keep your chin up. I hope this cycle is it for you. Maybe you made a massively big, healthy egg your body was trying to push out and with a little effort it finally did it? A good thought anyway.

 

[MsJMouse]

Just a quick log on before I finish packing to catch my flight (urgh I HATE HATE flying!! ). Noticed Crumbs BFP on FF so have to offer my very excited congrats. Yay. Hopefully there will be a few more of us sooner rather than later.

Sorry to read about your BFN MrsMax.

MrsPTTC - glad to hear that you don't appear to be facing the prospect of triplets

AFM - got a BFN yesterday at 11dpo. Okay with that as I was just not feeling it this month. Just waiting for AF now. At least that means I can drink at all the dinners - yumm my boss likes good restuarants so the food should be great.

Have a brilliant week/weekend and catch up with you all next week.

MsJ Enjoy the conference

 

[MrsPTTC]

Mrsmax have you tested again? Is AF due today? Any symptoms?

Just got out of scan & I'm so happy, I was actually told my lining was FAB!! I was a bit worried about it cos of my LP spotting but its fine . Still 2 good size follicles, biggest 16.5cm so not ready for ovulation yet so going back friday. I'm getting excited! x

 

[mrsmax]

Hey MrsPTTC - congrats!! That is sooooo exciting. Have everything crossed for you.

AF is due today or tomorrow. BFN on IC today, so I'm ready for her. No sypmtoms yet - just a little cramping, but always get "hot cramping" before AF so she will probably turn up tomorrow.

I serioulsy hate TTC!!!!!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Thanks Mrsmax. Sending you big hun, though you're not out just yet! What's your strategy for next cycle? x

 

[Crumbs]

Aisak, I know how you feel. Did you see my chart last cycle? My LP was only 5 days! That combined with my low progesterone levels (blood test at CD21/7DPO) I was certain something was wrong --I was either having a hard time ovulating or just ovulating late, or worse. It was only last cycle when FF triggered my O date later. All the other cycles before then, it was always around CD14-17, and the last two cycles it was at CD20,CD23. With my temps, I thought it just took me awhile to O.

I don't know if that helped or what, but if I normally O as late as I did this cycle, then we haven't been DBing right. I don't know if that was really what did it for me, but something worked.

Don't give up hope. Fx!!!

 

[Crumbs]

MrsPTTC, Yay! I'm so happy for you! Fxfxfx!!!

mrsmax, I'm so sorry. I'm still hoping for you.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Thanks crumbs. And I love your new ticker, I might use that when I get my BFP! x

 

[hopefulmama2b]

MrsPTTC- so glad that you had such a good appointment! I hope O comes soon! So is this an IUI cycle or are you guys just doing "it" the old fashion way?

MrsMax- Sorry to hear of the cramps and BFN. Temp still looks good, but I understand how you're feeling.

Crumbs- when is your first appointment?

AFM- 4 dpo. I'll be testing in one week. Just focusing on being positive!

Soliel- Any updates, hun?

 

[MrsPTTC]

Thanks hopeful, just the old fashioned way ha ha x

 

[mrsmax]

"Hot" cramps have started. AF is on the way.

On to cycle 18

This cycle I will stop temping altogether - stupid triphasic chart with dip getting my hopes up. My chart was so classic that I wonder if a lil bean tried to implant and it just didnt take. Cant think why else I would have all the good symptoms.

Now I just wait for the referral to come through from the private clinic so I can get this show on the road. IUI here I come....

 

[MrsPTTC]

Awww hun. I'm so sorry. Yeah I think temping is too stressful & gets your hopes up to much. I'm only doing it this month out of curiosity with me taking clomid. Good luck for next cycle Mrs x
