Help....opk testing genius's needed!

[bellyfever]

Loula I figured it would take a couple days for spotting/bleeding from stopping progesterone but guess my body is getting ready. Have had brown/pink spotting all day today. Not taking progesterone tonight and didn't even test add have given up now and ready to start new cycle. AF should be here Thursday if she shows on time.

Mimzy I can only imagine how stressed out you are about just wanting everything to be ok with your little bean. Hopefully it was just a one time thing and you want have it any more. Good that your levels have been rising nicely, so that's a big positive! Keeping you and your STICKY bean in my prayers! Bet you can't wait for that ultrasound. Have they checked your progesterone levels?

 

[Mimzy3]

Bellyfever sorry hopefully next cycle!!

Yes they checked my progesterone and my levels are good. Go tomorrow to have my levels checked again. But US isn't till March 16th I made it further away because I didn't want to go too soon not hear a heartbeat and then freak out. Thank you for keeping us in your prayers!

Hi girls how are you both doing? I'm doing alright, on CD 4 and being hopeful with this new cycle. Just waiting for the witch to go away now. Will be starting new job in 2 weeks so hoping that will help keep my mind off stressing over this crazy ttc journey. Had sad news end of last week as sis in law who was newly prego went in for her 1st visit at 10weeks and the babys heart beat had stopped a few days prior. So went with her Friday when she had d&c. She's doing ok though if was just heartbreaking.

Mimzy any news on your levels? Hope they are still going up good.

Loula hope you have been feeling ok?

 

[Mimzy3]

Oh no very sad news was that her first baby? Good luck on starting your new job. And LOTS of babydust to you for this cycle!!!

Don't have to have my levels checked anymore since they were more than doubling every time. Just waiting for US on next Monday, March 16th. Which I have mixed feelings about...I'm super excited but also very nervous that it might be too soon. But trying to stay positive.

Bellyfever what day are you on, fx for this cycle and good news about the job that should deffo take ur mind of it! Xxx

 

[Mimzy3]

I was just thinking about you girls today!! Bellyfever how are you doing? Hows the new job?

Loula what an exciting day! Congrats on finding out you're having a girl!

My scan yesterday went good I was able to see the little heartbeat flickering away! My midwife still hasn't called me with details about the US though so anxious to hear from her.

 

[bellyfever]

Hey girls! Loula congrats on the girl news! She will have 2 older brothers to help take care of her. Hope Elliots birthday went good!

Mimzy glad your scan was good and that little heart beat was going to town. Hopefully that had helped with your stress level some.

AFM: on CD 13 today, hoping I will o early like last month and not have to wait forever, no signs yet though. I got some preseed to try this month also. Start new job on Monday, hope I like it there. I love my girls where I'm at now it's just sucks driving an hour both ways on a 12 hr shift. I'm really hoping for bfp this cycle. If it doesn't happen this month prob going to make an appt with specialist.

 

[Mimzy3]

That is a very long day! 12 hour shifts and a hour each way drive! EKKK

Keep us posted hope you get your BFP this cycle!

 

[bellyfever]

Yes it's very long days when I work, new job will only be 30mins so I'm not gonna know what to do with all my extra time lol. Just got EWCM!! Opk was neg this AM going to do another tonight and see if it's darker. Fx I'll o in next couple days, guess we gotta get busy tonight!

 

[Mimzy3]

That's going to be so nice having shorter days! Especially for when you get pregnant!
Yah to EWCM get busy tonight!

 

[bellyfever]

Here we go girls! I don't know wither to call it positive or just almost? If anything it should be blaring positive in morning! used the preseed tonight also hope it helps! We both actually liked the preseed so glad it's happening early again this cycle!

 

[bellyfever]

Here's this mornings test. And of course I have to be getting a cold, didn't sleep good at all last night and feel like crap, hope this doesn't mess with baby making...

 

[bellyfever]

SMU positive!!!

 

[Mimzy3]

Looks positive to me! I used preseed as well, have you thought about using softcups too? If not make sure you at lest stay laid down for 20 mins after.

 

[bellyfever]

Yeah I've been using soft cups four months and love them!

 

[bellyfever]

Look at this temp jump! I have a really bad head cold, which made it funny bding last night but got it done. I don't have fever and hope this crud isn't affecting my temps. This test was this mornings fmu would y'all call it positive or negative? Want call it positive but don't think it's as dark? Had negative test last night but urine was really dilute. So with this head cold I'm scared to take anything to help cuz I don't want to mess anything up so guess I'm just gonna suffer through it. ughhhhh

 

[Mimzy3]

I would say negative. I think you O'd, that is a nice temp jump. Cold could possibly mess with your temps but if you don't feel feverish then I would think the huge jump is from O. Really just have to wait to see what tomorrow's temp is but looks hopeful!

 

[bellyfever]

Temp is still up! And even higher, my temps don't usually jump up that high but I'm blaming it on this nasty head cold. Broke down and took Tylenol and a benadryl last night as had low grade fever and needed something to help dry this nasty snot up to sleep. Felt bad for taking it but figured at 1dpo it wouldn't be that bad since implantation hasn't happened yet.

 

[Mimzy3]

Tylenol and a benadryl are both safe during pregnancy anyways so you're all good! Are you still taking the progesterone this cycle ? Some say they got a cold the cycle they got their BFP, so fingers crossed for you!

 

[bellyfever]

Yes started the progesterone at 2dpo again this cycle. Temp is dropping a little but it's still above coverline. Hope you are right about having this blasted cold and getting bfp. It would deff make up for it. So I just have to tell y'all this. Started new job today and having hospital orientation. So I'm still pretty snotty from the cold but feel much better. Girl that was sitting beside me so got up and moved to another seat at our second break, and pretty sure it was from me. So embarrassing, but I can't help it, trying to not make that much noise but I sound discussing.
