Felt like giving up, Got new hope!!

[Leetie13]

Ttc - I'm glad you love your new doc and got a referral for the clinic (hoping you won't need it either)


Afm - cd 3 starting the last cycle with femara. I'm hoping and praying that it will work this last cycle. But if not I'm kind of looking forward to hopefully a short break.

Hi ladies!

TTC- seems like we may be TWW buddies. Feeling the twinges. Our timing seems to be good this cycle, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything. So, fxed! Just glad that the house stuff is behind us and we are feeling more romantic.

My parents came by our house and saw the condition of the fridge and stove. My dad was a bit concerned about an electric fire, so they gave us an early Christmas present. Couldn't have come at a better time, because we really did need them but didn't have the cash. And there was a huge appliance sale. They were so happy to get us something useful for Christmas too, so everyone is happy.

 

[Leetie13]

Xan - Aw that was so nice of your parents what a great Christmas gift. Fx you O soon!

 

[labgal]

Xan - congrats on the new house and yay for new appliances! That's a wonderful Christmas gift you can really use for a long time! Fx that despite all the craziness you get your rainbow baby this cycle!

Leetie - I'm sorry last cycle wasn't for you. Hopefully this is it! Are you guys still going to try, just unassisted if it doesn't happen this cycle? I know many people have gotten pregnant on off cycles if it doesn't happen! Money shouldn't be such an object to happiness... Life should be about living, enjoying each other and our families. And health "care". ... Don't even get me started. But I know this will happen for you! I'm so sorry it's taking so long.

And to Ttc too. I'm glad you found a specialist that you like! I hope they have a good plan for you going forward if this isn't your cycle.

:sigh: I just want all you ladies to be able to hold your babies! You all have so much strength and I admire you all so much for staying positive while ltttc. There are always dark days and moments and months but I know it will pay off in the end for you!

 

[Leetie13]

Thanks Lab!

I have faith we will all have our little ones one day. Yes we will still be trying. I have ovulated on my own before just usually really late in a cycle so it could still happen.


Hope things are great on your end!

Hi ladies!
Leetie hoping this is your cycle too! Have you thought about using the fertility blend?
Xan yay for new appliances!! How exciting, its funny the older we are the more excited we get over things like that lol.

AFM I'm guessing I'm 4dpo. Again no stupid smiley. I don't know if the whole batch was bad or what but I haven't gotten a single smiley from the whole box! We have decided we will start the fertility blend if this isn't our cycle while we wait for our referral. Just hoping we don't have to go that far. Saturday I am going to the baby shower for the friend that was doing the drugs, pills and drinking while knowing she was pregnant. It's going to be very difficult but I'm going to put on a happy face and deal with it. Wish me luck!

 

[Leetie13]

Ttc - good luck at the baby shower. Sorry the opks have been giving you a hard time, fx this will be the last cycle you need them. We may try the fertility blend if we have to take a break from the medicine while we wait for the next step.

 

[xanzaba]

Well, hopefully this will be the last cycle for a while for all of us. Just bought the last bottle of Fertility Blend I'll buy before we see a specialist. We had some good timed bd'ing this cycle, so fingers crossed!

I'm 9dpo, so not too much longer to wait. But how come the later you are in your cycle the longer the days become?

 

[Leetie13]

Xan - everything's crossed!

The days become longer because anticipation can be cruel.



For some reason FF gave me dotted crosshairs for cd 9. There's no way I O'd then. I had a couple high temps but I think it's just from being really warm in bed. We got a new mattress and pillows and blankets so maybe it threw it off.

 

[TTC n Hopeful]

Thanks leetie! I hope neither of us need the fertility blend!!
Xan - when do u start the fertility blend? The first day of your cycle?? Fx you don't need them either!

AFM - I'm on 6-9dpo, who knows lol. Today I did get bad news, the Dr's office called and said when her just being my family practice dr she can't refer me to a specialist. I have to do that thru the gyno ugh. But praying it won't be needed!

 

[xanzaba]

TTC- fxed!

I take the fertility blend throughout the cycle. It's what they recommend, because it increases progesterone levels. This cycle I took a few days off (cd1-3) because I was a bit stressed about TTC and needed a break. Still O'ed on day 13 like usual.

 

[Leetie13]

Ttc - that's frustrating, I hope you won't need the referral but if you do I hope you can get it without any issues.

 

[xanzaba]

My temps shot up this morning and I feel really hot and out of it. I hope that it's a good sign and not the flu...

 

[Leetie13]

Xan I really hope it's not the flu!!




I don't know what my temps are doing, they seem to be all over the place but my opk was really dark today so I should O soon.

 

[xanzaba]

Ugh- took a First Response Sunday and had a faint line, today was also faint. But I bought the new comfort grip and would not recommend them! If this is an evap, I've had many evals in a row. If it's a positive, it's not much darker than the evap.

I made an appointment to get a blood test, hopefully they come back before Thanksgiving!

 

[TTC n Hopeful]

Fx Xan!

It was a hard weekend for me. Baby showers are really difficult so after it was done I had some much needed retail therapy lol. I'm testing on Thanksgiving but I might change my mind because I would hate to be disappointed on Thanksgiving.

 

[xanzaba]

Good luck TTC!

 

[Leetie13]

Xan -everything is crossed you get good results before Thanksgiving!!


Ttc - Fx for you also. I wouldn't test on a holiday either.

 

[Leetie13]

Happy Thanksgiving ladies!

I'm thankful for each one of you and the hope that started this thread and fuels us everyday!!

 

[TTC n Hopeful]

Happy Thanksgiving to you too Leetie!
It was a day of craziness but good craziness. We spent it with DF's family. Last year was my first year there so this year was much more enjoyable because I was a lot more confortable. I didnt test so just in case its negative I wouldnt be upset on Thanksgiving. Im so emotional and my boobs are tender but that could be AF. I will test when I wake up if AF hasnt found me. I'm 2 days early or 1 day late, who knows lol.
Happy Thanksgiving to you other ladies as well, I hope you all enjoyed your day. It's 4am and I'm finally going to sleep lol.
