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

MrsBrown,

Did you ?!?!

FX'd!!!

Yay, Guppy...I'm likin' your chart! I'm glad you're feeling better, too.

No AF here yet...My temp went up a little bit but BFN this morning with FMU at 12dpo, though, so I'm guessing that the B-vits are working instead of my being preggo. So far, it's lengthened my LP by 2 days!

Your chart is looking great! Only time will tell if you get a , but so far your LP is 3 days longer than last cycle. That is very good news for getting a sticky bean.

Thanks a lot for the encouragement, somedaymama...it means a lot!

How are you feeling?

I'm doing okay on the TTC front, my RE appointment is next month so I'm trying to not be too impatient. Besides, I'm in the midst of finals so right now TTC has to take the back seat!

By the way, I just noticed that you guys have been trying for 20 months! Have you talked to a doctor or anything?

 

[mommahawk]

Well, not really...I mentioned it to my GP when I was in for my annual, I think back in the summer...she asked if I had been charting, so when I said I hadn't she just said, "Oh, it'll happen. You haven't had any problem getting pregnant in the past, so there's nothing wrong with either of you."

Which is why we're now at cycle 20 with no BFP...cause I've been thinking the same thing the whole time!!

In our whole marriage, we've always just kinda NTNP though, since we've never used BC. I never get my period back after BF until the newest one is nearly two, so the spacing is good anyway. I'm not really sure what happened after my third dc, as my cycles previously have ALWAYS been spot on 28 days. I don't know when I usually O'd but I just had in my head that it was around mid-cycle. Anyway, now with my cycles being 23-25 days, I decided to start charting in August. Then I ran across something on FF about short luteal phases, and the egg not having time to implant, etc., etc.

I actually thought I was pregnant a couple of times over the last year, and who knows maybe I was and the little beanie just didn't have enough time to dig in before my body expelled it?

Sorry for the rambling, but that's where we are now. And a little testimony if I may...there are plenty of areas in my life where I lack faith (way too many!!), but for some reason God has given me the faith to absolutely trust in His sovereignty over this part of my life. They are His children that He loans to me for a time, and He knows when it is the right time...and I totally believe that. So, actually 20 months sounds like a long time, and I couldn't believe it had been that long when I calculated it, but actually this is only the second month that I've even taken a HPT. When AF comes every month, I am of course a little disappointed, but then I turn around and thank God for His perfect timing, and for the three blessings He has already given me.

I know there are people who try for years and years for just one child, (I know a few personally, and may He bless those of you on this board that are in this position) and it is so heartbreaking to see them go through that. So I would love to have a fourth, but I also would be absolutely content with the beauties that are sleeping upstairs right now.

Very wonderful attitude to have, mommahawk. Thanks for sharing.

MrsBrown,

Did you ?!?!

Hey Ladies! This system was down everytime I got on here! No I didnt test but I missed my AF yesterday and today so far. It was due yesterday! I feel a lot of pressure and the need to urinate quite frequently especially during the night, breasts still tender not extremely sore though. My AF since sept when I started taking clomid and metformin have been very accurate, 34 days to the tee. So not getting it is a huge sign. Im going to try to hold out and test tomorrow!

I am scared of BFN's!!!! I will keep you all posted!

 

[mrskcbrown]

Well right after I posted this, I got AF! Oh well. Gl to you ladies. I dont think I will be TTCing any longer. I have been trying since March and Im just tired!!!!

Congratulations!

You got a positive hpt? That's a good thing, considering your history of not getting on home tests.

I only "met" you yesterday, but I'm so happy for you!

 

[Guppy051708]

Mrskcbrown, im sorry the got you girl
You should do whats best for you. & stress doesn't help anyone TTC. My prayer to the Man Upstairs is that the minute you have fun "messing around" with your DH , you would conceive. God is out for our God and He will bring us our heart's desires.

We are always here for you! Blessings to you.

 

[Guppy051708]

CONRATULATIONS Baby#3, that is wonderful!!!!! So glad the Lord has presented you with this happiness

I'm so sorry mrskcbrown. I know how you feel, it can be so discouraging. Take a month off of trying if you want, but don't give up altogether yet! God has a baby for you...I wish it was NOW!

 

[somedaymama]

Guppy, your chart is looking bea-utiful!

 

[Guppy051708]

Thanks Somedaymama!
I took a Dollar Tree test last night and with FMU today, im pretty sure there is something there! It is SUPER faint, but i think i see something! But thats not in stone yet until i get a better positive. The line on last nights HPT and this mornings look the same - i think its just because hCG hasn't built up yet. Im going to buy some FRER sometime today.

[Guppy051708]

Thanks hun, but its not officially until i get a line that i dont have to squint my eyes for 10 minutes to see LOL

 

[baby#3]

Thanks Ladies, I have only know you for a day but I feel the love.

@somedaymama - yes I was completely shocked. I have been feeling funny but seeing as how AF wasn't due until Thursday was expecting a BFN. I have checked the test 20 times already. LOL! I used FRER digital this time so there wouldn't be any doubts.

@guppy - as I said above I never got BFP with HPT before so was skeptical. Took the FRER digital test and got the BFP!! I am still in shock. I think the digital ones are the best because there is not a doubt. It's in plain english. no wondering whether the second line is correct or not.

@mrskcbrowm - I agree with the ladies in saying you must do what you feel but don't give up. God has a plan for us all, including you and I believe that nothing is too hard for our Lord!

Thanks again and baby to all who are waiting for their s
