first cycle actively trying (June 2015)

[gina236]

Ya I would much rather health care like that. We pay for the insurance anyways so it wouldn't make that much difference. But I finally got the nerve to call my GP (I have bad anxiety about talking on the phone) and was told I am no longer a patient there and if I wanted to apply to be one again they are scheduling to the end of march. Told her never mind and hung up. So now i need to actually find a doctor

 

[wifeybby]

What! That's crappy. I hope you find a new doctor who will listen to you and start fresh. Maybe a new set of doctor eyes is what you need. Do some research on GP's around you and read some patient reviews. Maybe this will be the start of your success. I'll be thinking of you, let me know what you find!

Guysss!! Looks like I need a 12+ hr hold for tests

 

[wifeybby]

Awesome!!! Little bean is still holding on!! Ahh!! Now what?!

 

[gina236]

No idea really haha. I think my head is going to explode from so much confusion lol.

Hi all, I've been lurking around this thread for a few days now, reading from a little way back in my spare time (proper creepy, huh?). But because I've done that, now I feel invested in all your journeys, so...

Gina, what a roller coaster! That looks super promising, though! I heard that can totally happen - a super late BFP and sporadic spotting.

AFM, AF is due sometime between Monday and Wednesday. FRER showed BFN at approximately 8-10DPO (I say approx because I only based it on a period tracker app) which made me lose about 80% of hope. Funny thing is that I had all sorts of weird symptoms that I've genuinely never had before with PMS about 2-4 days after my two consecutive days of BDing during my supposed ovulation window, but after that every symptom went away. I have sore boobs now and that's it. Anyway, not keeping up much hope - it's our first cycle so... merrrghhhhh.

Good luck to all. Looking forward to updates! You guys are so supportive that I want in on this

 

[gina236]

Haha welcome I tend to do the same thing before I join a thread. It's okay to be a creeper good luck to you. Once you start trying you seem to notice symptoms you never noticed before. Hopefully you are a lucky one and get it right away but don't worry if it takes awhile. Can't wait to hear what happens in the next few days!

 

[Jezika]

Well, I should be getting some Wondfos OPKs and HPTs delivered tomorrow, though I probably won't get them till Tuesday because I'll be at school tomorrow. After that, if AF hasn't come, I doubt I'll be able to stop myself from POAS. I have a second FRER but I know better than to waste yet another one for no good reason!

What's your plan, Gina? Are you going to get in with a doc?

 

[gina236]

I am planning to go to the doctor tomorrow night but I don't have an appointment. They do walk in pregnancy tests so I'm hoping after I do that if I express my concerns maybe I can get them to do bloods or an ultrasound if they aren't busy. Even though I don't feel it's ectopic anymore (not sure why, just dont) I am going to act like I think it is to see if I can get an early scan

 

[Jezika]

Sounds like a good idea. I struggle to think any medical professional with a heart would hear what you've been through and not do anything within their control to help you out. Are you testing again today or leaving it till doc?

 

[gina236]

I'm done testing for now. I don't trust tests anymore lol. I have taken ovulation. Tests the past 2 days as my temp is acting like I should be ovulating the weekend but they have both been low so definitely not ovulating. Hopefully the doctor isn't busy and can take some extra time with me.

 

[Jezika]

Well, good luck and keep us posted! FX for you big time.

 

[wifeybby]

GL sweetie! I'll be thinking of you tonight. I hope they act on the side of caution and do everything they can to see where you're at. Our bodies are so confusing, I would be mind blown at all the tests too. And btw, I LOVE the hpt selfie! So cute!

Hi, Jezika! Hope your TTC journey is a quick one! Welcome to bnb

 

[gina236]

Thank you ladies. I hope they aren't busy so they have time to address everything.

Wifey I changed it again haha. Finally got DH to take one with me before the battery on the hpt dies and goes blank lol.

 

[gina236]

Called to see if there were any actual appointments tonight and they have changes their hours and aren't open late Mondays anymore. So instead got an appointment closer to home for a scan on Wednesday by saying I was concerned about ectopic. Happy to know I will actually get a scan just hoping this little guy can hold on until then

 

[Hopingsomeday]

Ladies I have a question ! So normally I seem to get a positive opk on cd 18 and I think I O on 20 . Today I am cd 20 and have bd last night . However I just took a test and got a raging positive . Should I wait until tomorrow up bd hoping I don't miss O or should we tonight but it will only be one day ..... Obviously I don't know when I actually O but I assumed it was 2 days later based on O pain. However I have only gotten BFN so what's the best bet here . Ugh

 

[gina236]

Unless your OH has fertility issues I would try to tonight and tomorrow. Either way I would tonight. It's more important to BD the day before O than it is the day of O as it takes a little while for the sperm to make their way to the egg. FX it works out!

 

[wifeybby]

Yay for a scan! That's awesome! I hope it goes well!! I can't wait to hear all about it!! And yay for closer to home, that's always a win in my book. FX and praying for you!!

Hopingsomeday, if you can only bd one of the days, I'd vote tonight. But try to get some in tomorrow too if you can!

 

[wifeybby]

And PS - I love the pic of you and DH even more! You look so good together

 

[gina236]

Thank you hun! We were getting ready for work and I'm like babe come here and take a picture. He's just like uhh okay But it's a picture I will cherish even if things don't work out this time.
