Pato- how are you?

Hopeful- how you holding up?

And everyone else? Jessalex, amber, horizon, annie.. You ladies still with us?

My hump day was less than exciting. I have taken naps the last couple of days because of the exhaustion! I'm off work this week, but with no plans to go anywhere lol. Was kind of a good thing I took it off since I would've been too distracted with just getting my BFP. I'm feeling good thanks for asking . Still impatient of course. Would love for it to be next Friday so I can do my blood test

 

[pinkpassion]

Thanks corn, I know.. and I have no reason to believe this isn't going well (except my previous mc's) it's just hard not to worry when you have in your head the way you think it should be and it's not that... o well, I am going to bed, I am putting it all in the back of my mind so I can try to get through this week and to my next scan next week!!!! I'm not going to go for repeat betas I don't think.. they recommended it, but I don't know!!

 

[muffinbabes4]

I'm glad it's fine pink, and I'm sure everything will be ok grow baby grow ♡♡♡♡

 

[Disneymom1129]

Well here is my less bloated 6 week pic

Cute

My numbers we're 8180, I was expecting them to be a little higher..with dd at 5+1 my levels were over 14,000.....

I agree with Corn, you're still in the normal range. All is well . I know how hard it is not to assume the worst.

 

[ashleyg]

Hi ladies!!! Sorry for being MIA the last day or so but I just kind of wanted to not think about TTC for a day or two and just relax and try not to get so hung up on it, you know?

Tomorrow I will be on CD 5 and I'm hoping that AF will end Friday. Usually my cycles are around 6 days. I'm going to start my OPKs on Saturday and my fingers are crossed that the SMEP, my prenatals, and Preseed all will help this cycle!

I've been having a really good feeling about it though unlike last month where I kind of just knew I wouldn't get a positive...so I'm hoping that my gut is right this month!

 

[ashleyg]

Also I have a question...for those ladies who checked their CM...how did you do it? Did you just stick your fingers up there and feel for it or did you just notice it on your panties when you went to restroom?

Sorry if TMI question haha but I never notice any discharge or mucus around ovulation so I'm not sure if thats is an indicator of how fertile you are or what.

 

[jessalex]

Hi everyone!!
Thanks to you all for the support and advice about this horrible UTI, it is so nice to share things with people who 'get it'. Went to doc today and am on antibiotics so hoping they will kick in soon as I have had a bit to a temperature all day!
As usual, lots have happened over the course of my night and then work hours:
Ashley - for me with cervical mucus it is there when I wipe during my fertile period, so I'm pretty lucky that it's easy to tell when it is there. GL over next few days, exciting for you to have a plan this cycle and fingers crossed you get your sticky bean
Huge congrats Disney - that digi is beautiful!!
Pink - try not to stress about the numbers etc, my understanding is that it is the increase in hcg numbers over a certain time period that matter more than the actual number? I think a repeat test might put your mind at ease?
GL 5 stars, hope you have success this cycle!
Muffin - have you tested lately?
to all

 

[oox_tasha_xoo]

I was suppose to have my bloods drawn yesterday but I forgot oops! Rescheduled for Monday now, Intruiged to find out my numbers.
Feeling a lot more sick today but still haven't been sick. Fatigue is also rearing it's way in but I'm trying to power through and get my garden done as it's nice weather this week

 

[FLArmyWife]

Hey, FLarmywife! I see your good news! Absolutely thrilled for you! I think I stretched myself thin over too many threads haha, but have found my way back. Put me down for the 18th. How are you feeling?

Oh I know how that is. When I log in and see 12 threads that I follow all have posts to catch up on but I am glad you've found your way back. I will definitely add your test date. GL!
I am feeling pretty good thank you.

Hi FLArmy..lovey pic..excited for you!
I'm hanging in there...about 3dpo. Me and Jess are in this together this cycle : ) gl to all testing. Congrats to all with the growing bumps!

Corn- I'm glad you're hanging in there. FX you and jess get your bfp this month

My numbers we're 8180, I was expecting them to be a little higher..with dd at 5+1 my levels were over 14,000.....

Remember, as long as their increasing, the actual number means very little. You are in normal range with is all that matters

Would love for it to be next Friday so I can do my blood test

I am glad you are feeling good. Naps are so normal lol. I take a 2 hour nap most days and still am exhausted by 9pm. Rest up, you're cooking a little mouseketeer! (BTW, I'm going to PM you because DH and I are thinking a babymoon to DL!)
Lol it is so hard to wait. you'll get your blood and then be impatient for your first ultrasound. after that you'll be impatient for your next one.. I think pregnancy is one long impatience lol

You do whatever you need to I'm glad you're back. Everyone needs a break at some point or another.
Lots of hope you catch that eggy

Also I have a question...for those ladies who checked their CM...how did you do it? Did you just stick your fingers up there and feel for it or did you just notice it on your panties when you went to restroom?

Sorry if TMI question haha but I never notice any discharge or mucus around ovulation so I'm not sure if thats is an indicator of how fertile you are or what.

Mine I just did off of what was in my panties, but there is a way for you to check it internally. You use your middle finger to lightly rub against the cervix and "scrape" off the CM that's the best way I can describe it.

I am so glad you got on antibiotics. Hopefully you feel better soon

Tasha- hope the MS doesn't get too bad for you! and enjoy gardening Just remember to protect yourself from the sun and drink lots of water

Hi honey and good morning. I'm not feeling too great today, I seem to be stuck on tired...I mean I'm soooo sleepy right now and I'm at the office. All yesterday I had to try and keep busy to avoid falling asleep. Had an annoying pain on the right side of my tummy. Had an issue with it late last year and after all the tests done the conclusion was its probably just a muscle spasming Other than that and a bit of constipation, oh and I keep getting this...I don't know....pinching like feeling in my uterus. I'm 7dpo today CD20 and my temp went up .2 this morning.

It all sounds so promising! I really hope you get a bfp. I'm sorry though that you're having pain. It truly stinks that we can't just look inside a window and see what is going on.

Thanks FLArmywife you are so encouraging....oh and I love your pics...I think I wanna do something like this b/c my OH says he is going to get "FIXED" after we have this baby lol lol...My OPK was negative this morning but that's ok b/c Im not due to O until Saturday or at the latest Monday...so we are just enjoying each other and I think that's what it's all about

Hey Ashley around O time I have a good amount of cm whenI wipe and some may even be in my undies...I have a lot of EWCM when Im getting ready to O...for some strange reason I always look in the toliet while im using it around O time and I can even see the EWCM coming out (sorry tmi)...I guess I don't have a problem with cm lol

I try because I know how helpful some enouragement can be.
I'm sorry your OPK was negative but glad you are just enjoying each other. Hopefully that will make his stronger and relaxed to stick around waiting for that eggy
