F.A.I.T.H. (Forsaking all, I trust Him)

Your future baby needs you to have that degree! Use this as your motivation

Amanda,
How are you feeling today? I hope you got a good night's sleep.

If you ladies could pray for me, I would really appreciate it. I am feeling so, so down since getting the BFN this morning and FF changing my cycle to no ovulation. I want a baby so bad, and I just don't know why it hasn't happened yet. My husband is so sad too. Also, I calculated today that if I hadn't lost my little baby in June, I would be entering my third trimester right now.

I am just a mess. I'm sitting here doing nothing despite the fact that I have a huge take home test tomorrow. I should be in class right now but I couldn't get up the energy to go. It's the first class I've missed all semester in any of my classes, so it's not like I just don't go for no reason. I can't do anything but stare of into space, I think if I start crying I won't stop...I don't know what is wrong with me!!

Amanda, I hope things are looking a little brighter this morning. God has a plan.

What did you mean when you aid this was your last month TTC?

well ladys my AF showed couple hours ago, i got quite upset over it, im taking it as ive had a chemical as the lines were definatly there and AF was due 2days ago .i drove up a hill and sat there by myself just crying and thinking, it always happens to me nothing ever goes right!!! this was my last month TTC soo i guess God doesnt want me to have baby yet.

Amanda, so sorry for your loss
If you need anything, please dont hesitate to contact me. I know what going through a MC is like (as do some other ladies on here, and Im sure they would be more than happy to be a shoulder to lean on).

Lord, I pray that you bring peace and a hope to Amanda. She cries out to you God, and I know you hear her crys. Almightly God, you are good in everything. Please bring people into Amanda's life that could bless her in more ways than she can phathom. God, she loves you with everything. I pray that you give her your grace and mercy during this tribulation. God, we love you. Thank you so much for life. May you also bring peace to Amanda by reminding her daily that he sweet baby- no matter how young- is in Your presence. Amen.

Amanda, I want you to know that you are loved- by all of us and by our great Savior. When i get down i try to think how great my sweet baby must have been because she completed her purpose here on earth at such a young age.

Peace be with you.

 

[somedaymama]

I pray that you find that peace...especially on days like today...I especially need that prayer this week as well.

Thank you so much for the understanding and the prayers; they really mean a lot. I will be praying for you this week.

Your future baby needs you to have that degree! Use this as your motivation

Definitely. I'm not usually a slacker, honestly. I have a class in a couple of minutes that I'm on my way to; now that I dragged myself out of the house I feel much better.

I you guys!! Thanks for helping me feel better!

Amanda, praying for you today!!

That is nice advice, but if I have imbalanced hormone levels and anovulatory cycles, all the lovemaking in the world isn't going to get me a baby. Sometimes assisting the process is good and necessary.

I understand that. I have been told the same things. I am currently trying acupuncture and am seeing a naturopath to see if it can balance my hormones... but I am done stressing about if I ovulated or not and all that crap--- I know you might think I am crazy, but we just figured God will make it happen when He is ready for it to happen...we may as well have a little fun til He decides.

I am just trying to stay positive and find a way to connect with Christian women TTC. And remind us all that TTC shouldn't consume your life. Thanks for the warm welcome good luck with your issues.

I am currently trying acupuncture and am seeing a naturopath to see if it can balance my hormones...

How is the acupuncture going for you? I have been getting it for 6-8 weeks and so far all it has done is give me an anovulatory cycle. Hopefully it gets better!

Sorry if my post earlier was rude. Welcome.

Hiya Jesus - I have some buddies here who really want babies...well, actually there are lots of us. Specifically praying for Somedaymama, Amanda, and Guppy who have been patiently waiting and seeking you while ttc'ing. Please give them the desires of their hearts, but in the waiting - strengthen them towards your awesome purposes. Help us to find great joy and expectation as we meet with you each day.

 

[Willynilly]

TTCisFun - hiya girl. welcome to FAITH. looking forward to getting to know you...two questions you are required to answer. well, not really - I just made them up. but, still...

how long have you been ttc'ing and how did you meet your dh?

I am in my 7th cycle-with one chemical...and I met my sweet, darling husband on a Christian dating website - we were engaged 7 months later. I lead a pretty exciting life. jk.

 

[Willynilly]

oooh - I don't believe in luck but I just realized that this is my 7th cycle and we dated for 7 months before getting engaged! if I DID believe in luck, then this would SURELY be my LUCKY cycle.

 

[Willynilly]

mommawannabe - I wanna hear more! tell me about your celebration - anything - let us live vicariously through our first bfp!!!

 

[Willynilly]

can you move my testing date to dec. 7?! Thanks, Shell.

 

[Rdy2BaMom]

Okay ladies, I haven't really had enough time to post on here lately, so I am going to try to get to everyone now! Wish me luck!

Amanda-so sorry to hear about your difficulties hon! I am sure you are still hurting and I hope you remember to find your strength in Him! We love you!

Dipar-you are more than welcome to come to Texas anytime! I love it here.

Willy-I am so glad God has blessed you with such a rewarding job and He is showing you just how good He is! I think you pointed this out before, but you and I are on the same cycle #. . . perhaps blessed (instead of lucky ) #7!!!

Someday-sorry to hear about your BFN. . .. . . wish we could all be celebrating a BFP. . . but all in His good time!

Welcome TTC is fun! I am glad you can join us! I wish I could eliminate the stress out of our ttc journey too. . . I don't do anything but use opk's starting on cd11 just to see when I am ovulating, but man do I stress A LOT during the 2ww. I pray you can keep that stress level down and just enjoy your time ttc!

Wow. . . all of the prayers for each other on here are so awesome! It is comforting for me to know that I am not alone in this and that I have ladies here that I can chat with and share my feelings and emotions. Thank you all for being such an awesome example of God's love!!

Friday is my DH's birthday and his one wish was. . . "can we just sleep??" Lol. . . it made me laugh, but guess what we are going to do. . . sleep! It will be nice. We both took the day off so we will have a 3 day weekend. . yay!!! Love you ladies!!

Guys, all this time I have thought I was out. I for some reason decided to take a test tonight and I think I have a positive. I waited 5 mins to look at it. I don't know if I completly trust it or not. I'm going to take a FRER in the morning. I'm 13dpo now.

Here are pis I posted in another thread.

[Guppy051708]

wow! Rachel, i think you're correct!!!! Yay!!!
Im just going to go ahead and congratulate you now!!!
CONGRATULATIONS!

 

[somedaymama]

how long have you been ttc'ing and how did you meet your dh?

I don't think I every answered this question. We have been TTC for 13 months, since October 2008. Last year at Thanksgiving was the first I told anyone about it, my sister figured it out. I was sooo hoping to have good news this Thanksgiving, but it looks like that is not going to happen. But in God's timing, it WILL!

I met my sweet hubby working at Subway restaurant. I moved back to Illinois from Florida and I was desperate for a job, and he ended up training me. We both went to the same community college that fall, and well, things went well from there.

Rdy2BaMom, good to see you again! Have fun celebrating your husband's birthday!

Rachel, I definitely see a second line!! early congats!

 

[Dipar_Butt3]

I love Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding;in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your paths! Coming out of Proverbs 3:5-6.

He told me tonight to trust in him and pretty much go to him and vent. And that is what i'm going to do for now on. Since online isn't a good place to do it. And of course nobody on here doesn't want to hear it or read it lool. So sorry again ladies. I'll take my emotions and thoughts to God for now on. And talk about other things on this site.

how is everybody? my daughter's birthday is today. So i'm going to be busy today

Rdy2Bemama, I would love to come to Texas. And thanks for thinking about me. I wanted to pray that Rdy2Bemama, and Mrskcbrown will get their bfp. I try not to forget anybody in here. Or by pass them. How's the weather down there?

Hi everyone! It's been a few days since I've been able to sign on. I hope you all are doing well - I have to catch up on reading the thread!!

Leaving for a WAY overdue vacation on Sat., so I won't be on for about a week but hoping the best for all of your ladies!!

 

[Willynilly]

Rachel - yeah, that is def a BFP - looks to be, anyway!!! Keep us updated with your testing...but I expect it will get darker and darker.

God is good - all the time. Congrats, RachelMomma!!!!

 

[Willynilly]

Someday - that's a cute way to meet - you could be a Subway commercial - not only can you get a good healthy fast food meal, but you can meet your dream lover over it.

Hey - since you've been TTCing for 13 months, I am sure you have figured out the temping stuff by now - but I just thought I would throw it out there for you in case. Worth a try...ok - here it is: I JUST realized that my annovulatory cycles were not that at all - I was using a bbt digital thermometer and taking it out when it beeped...and then recording that temp. Well, I read somewhere that you should leave it in for 5 min or so and you will get a more accurate reading. I started doing that and it was registering .3 degrees higher!!! on average. My charts started making sense - FF started seeing an OV day and I didn't even need them to show me. It was so clear - low, low, low - then bam high, high, high. And I went from thinking I had a thyroid problem (temps in low 96s) to regular mid 97s. Since then I bought a reg therm online (bbt but not digital)...only b/c the battery in my dig was dying from using it 5 minutes per day. I LOVE the reg bbt therm - just feel it is more accurate. and to shake it down, I put it in a sock and twirl the sock rapidly for 30 secs or so. brilliant.

well, even if you already know about all this - maybe it will help someone else who thinks they are not ovulating. I hope this cycle starts looking up for you!!!

 

[im_mi]

rachel that looks like a BFP to meeee!! OMGoodness, how exciting!!! Praise Him!

i love this group thread. it is so uplifting. all of the support, prayers and love make me so happy.

Lord, thank you for everything. Thank you for the support of these wonderful ladies here, and thank you for always being there for me, listening to me and hearing my prayers. I still feel completely awed and amazed by how quickly you answered the prayer that my friend and I sent up to you when i needed strength in an awkward situation that was of my own making. Your intervention really helped me, and out of respect for your intervention i have been able to find the strength to take steps to end this current drama. Thank you so much, Lord, for your love and strength and forgiveness. Amen.
