Hello! May I join this thread too? I was recommended here by somedaymama. Thanks a lot! Awesome thread you have here!!!!

Well, I´m Priscilla and I haven´t officially TTC yet. My hubby and I have been NTNP for a few months, but zero cycles, since my period decided to do a disappearing act. But it has finally decided to come back after I started some thyroid medication - have an underactive thyroid. So yeah, I´m hoping that my cycles will go back to normal again.

I don´t know if we´d TTC, as in taking temperatures and all. My doc recommended Clomid since I have mild PCOS. So I guess we´d continue with NTNP and see if my periods regulate itself first....

Great to see some Christian ladies out there.....

Welcome cheerios!! :wave: Glad to have you!

I hope the thyroid issue helps with your long cycles. My doctor mentioned that thyroid problems can cause irregular cycles--it's one of the things they are going to test me for since I have a family history of thyroid problems. It would be great if that would bring you back to normal without too much other work. TTC should be a good time, not stressful. (As much as I forget this sometimes.)

I love the name Priscilla, btw. It's one of my best friends' names.

I ovulated again! four days ago - bd was not well-planned due to biz trips and the like. BUT I am thanking God that I ov'd yet another month - things are looking good. I think I will be the OV Watch for next cycle b/c I am tired of trying to figure out when the good days are and then missing them completely. Anyone else doing the OV Watch? I am terrible at ov strips. Cant' remember to do them for the life of me.

im_mi,

Thinking of you during this time and confident that next month is yours!

mrskcbrown, yes i tested at 9dpo and started bleeding the following morning. i did a test too with fmu as soon as i saw the blood and it was still positive but barely there im sorry you have had a chemical pregnancy too. it sucks.

 

[Guppy051708]

Good morning ladies!
Do you remember how i shared with you about the UTI and all of my prayers and the 700 Club? Well, for about the past week I have been getting VERY cloudy urine off and on (a big sign for me. I've had so many now that I dont really feel pain, i just notice those small, but relevant symptoms.) So anyways, I tested at the very end of my last cycle with a home UTI and they came back positive (this was about 3 weeks ago). I did call the doctors and everything but they just referred me to a urologyst (who cant get me in until the end of January), but the point is I have not had medicine for this. So last night, I decide that it would be a good idea for me to take another home UTI (because of my urine and everything). AND...

IT SHOWED UP NEGATIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How awesome is that?!?! I love Jesus so much and I feel so blessed beyond compare knowing that our Lord has taken care of this for me! Praise God!

Hello all! :wave:

Can I join too?

I saw the banner on some of the posts in different threads I read, and finally found the thread.

I believe that prayer is very uplifting and would like the support of all of you.

Little bit about me:
I grew up going to church and I have accpected Jesus as my savior. However, I fell out of going to church, and my faith is not as strong as it could be but its there!

Hi Guppy051708
Thanks for your welcome! I popped by your journal for a while. Great that you got cured of your UTI without any medication even! Wow.... Yeah, I´m still on thyroid medication, not sure if I can stop, but will go to the endocrinologist before changing any medication.

Hi Willynilly, what is OV watch??? Does it work for PCOS women?

 

[Mama4]

Just poppin by to say hello to everyone...been a while since ive posted on this thread! Been so busy at work and at home - but hope everyone is well and on their way to a wonderful BFP soon!

 

[Guppy051708]

Thanks cheerios!

I am confident that you will be healed with your thyroid very soon, whether it be with meds or not! I had an under active thyroid for 6-7 years. Spent so many years praying about it and wanting to be off meds. FINALLY i had normal levels without meds for the past 2 years now. Glad to hear that you have found something to help And its easily fixed too. Just pop a pill, and wala! So happy for you hun! =]

And thanks for reading my journal

steph thats amazing!! He is so good!

thank you all SO MUCH for your prayers and love and kindness, it means so much to me.

I am feeling a lot better than i was. Very self destructive though, i am trying hard to keep a handle on it and the Lord is helping me, of course. Its in my nature to immediately self destruct when something goes wrong like this but my gorgeous little man Jack and my fledgeling relationship with God is just a huge tower of strength for me.

Lord, please forgive me for i have sinned in my thoughts and deeds. I am sorry that i have been tempted and that i have given in to the temptations to do things that hurt myself. The life and the body you have given me are sacred and should be respected as such. I will try harder. Thank you, Lord, for your endless understanding, love and reassuring presence in my life.

And of course, please shower these wonderful women here, and their families, in your blessings. Amen.

I guess I just want to share my own personal experiences with God. He has kept me alive since the day I was born. More so then others I guess.

I was born two months early, and was basically kept in an incubator so I could keep breathing. My lungs were underdeveloped. The doctors, I've been told, told my parents that I could live but have serious brain damage, and quite possibly other things that I don't remember (I haven't heard the story in so long I've forgotten). One of my uncles used to tell me that they prayed for me while I was in the hospital. I came out of the hospital two months later, I guess (like I said the details are a little fuzzy), and really I've been fine ever since. I grew up normal, and even excelled in some areas where the doctors thought that I'd have problems.

I guess the next "encounter" that I can remember, would be my senior year of high school. It was the 1st day of finals of the 1st semester of senior year. My dad was driving me to school, and i had fallen asleep without my seat belt on in the front seat. All I remember hearing is a screech of tires and then the feeling of my face hitting the windshield. Yeah, my dad had somehow gotten into a small accident, and because I wasn't wearing my seat belt, I almost went through the windshield. To this day i can remember looking at the cracked glass and seeing how close I came to breaking it all the way through.

The next one would be last year on the way back from our honeymoon. Around this time too. We were driving back from Florida to Michigan after having Thanksgiving with my aunt and uncle. My hubby wanted me to drive so he could sleep forra bit. Cool. We stopped and i got an energy drink, and was doing okay...until... I'm not totally sure what happened. Its like a blacked out/ fell asleep. It was crazy weird, and hasn't happened again since. I spilled my energy drink all over me, and we stopped at a rest area. Cleaned up and my hubby felt better if he drove even though he was tired. We were there no more than 10 mins, maybe...a little longer. Drove a ways down the road about as long as we had stopped, and there was a couple car accident across the highway. I believe we were saved from that car wreck, because I had passed out/fell asleep/whatever.

He's working in our lives ladies! I'm not one to preach, or even really talk about myself. But as I am still trying to go to sleep, I had this nagging feeling of needing to post this on here!

He has a plan girls. Just believe and pray!~

(sorry i guess i kinda hijacked the thread there forra moment.)

Thanks for sharing your story, Vilranda, it's a great day when we realize that we are meant for something more.

 

[im_mi]

[Vilranda]
