I need help!

[gabbyskyy]

Ok, I think is on her way! I had some cramping so I put a liner on and there was light brown on the tp and a tad on the liner. I'm sure it'll come full force tomorrow! I don't get it! We bd'd both days of positive opk and if af shows up tomorrow it'll be aprox 13-14 dpo and last cycle I got af the same 13-14 dpo! Oh well. I'm gonna stop trying after this. It's really starting to become a downer. I'll try to focus on working out and losing a few pounds this next month instead of hopelessly testing opk daily then hpt's.

 

[gabbyskyy]

Well, yes the cycles have been irregular since the mirena removal! I don't know what's going on with my body, but waiting another 23 days to ovulate again is gonna suck hairy cow balls........Gosh, doesn't she know I don't want her man!

Well, if af shows at least I'll have some frers to test on next time. I broke down and went to walmart today and got some. My bottled water spilled and puddled in my purse! My phone broke, and it was permanently stuck on vibrate! I had to take the batery out or I mighta got weird stares in the store! Oh and then when all this happened I was standing in the pregnancy test isle to make it even worse I was wearing a dress and had to lift it up to try and dry my phone! Oh goodness!

Haha, you two.

I just have something to say about the ear piercings!

Piercings (and wounds) are not infected easily... and the VAST majority of the time, the infection sets in within the first 4 days! So, being that your daughter has had her ears pierced for over 6 weeks, there's a very very slim chance that they're infected.

To be infected, you need to have ALL 4 signs of infection. The site HAS to be extremely red, extremely painful (like OMG I WANT TO ROLL AROUND ON THE FLOOR painful), hot to the touch, and giving off funny coloured discharge. Like yellow or green.

The reason your daughter's ear was bleeding was probably because you were fiddling with the post It's more than likely just irritated!

To speed up healing, you could try a warm chamomile teabag and hold it to her ear until it gets cold, then repeat 4ish times. I would suggest not using that "antiseptic solution" you get at most places that do ears with guns... Yes, it does kill the bacteria, but it also kills the GOOD bacteria! The best way to clean a piercing, is in the bath or shower with good ol' warm water. Just to rinse all those crusties off!

p.s. I'm not a jerk, I swear! I've had 20ish piercings in my life, and I'm also a nurse!
p.p.s. If you want some info about why piercings with guns are bad, hit me up and I'll give you everything you ever wanted to know about them lol

 

[gabbyskyy]

Thanks buzzzy!!!! It was not a great experience at all. We went to the piercing pagoda in the mall. The girl that pierced her ears got her rubber glove stuck, then could'nt get the back off of her earing! It didn't get infected thank goodness! All I was using is that ear cleaner I bought from there. Chamomile tea huh? I'll have to try that. But, she did have crusties today when she got home from school, but it's not imflamed or hot. Do you know how I can get the earing off? I swear it's stuck on there pretty good and I don't wanna hurt her anymore than I did....bad mommy!
Also, maybe I should wait to try to get them off until they are feeling better. I'm tempted to take needle nose plyers to them, but is that barbaric. I bite my nails so I have no leverage there. I might not have thumb nails from breaking open all those hpt's! ouch!
Thanks for your advise! I appreciate it!

 

[Buzzymomma]

If you can get your hands on some latex gloves, they can really give some good grip! I would also suggest waiting until there isn't any crusties left
You can also go to a proper piercing and tattoo shop and more often than not, they're willing to give you a hand! The posts that are in your daughter's ears right now are probably not the highest in quality!

 

[babycrazy11]

"Hairy cow balls" eh??? Things must really suck when ya start talkin' "hairy cow balls." LOL!!! I really did burst out in a laugh when I read that! YEEHAW! But i do agree, the long wait does suck...... hairy cow balls. is gonna get soooo jealous if she knows we are talkin about her man like this!

Annnnndddddd...... is you phone being stuck on vibrate really such a bad thing?? Send it to me.... I am the one performing all the "chores" You sound like you were a complete yard sale in the pregnancy test isle! Thought that stuff only happened in funny movies.

I hope that they're of decent quality. I paid a good penny for them and they're 14kg. That's a good idea the tattoo shop! I'll try latex gloves for sure. Thanks!

I don't think I made too huge of a spectacle. Just one guy noticed and had to do a double take. LOL!...I feel yucky so I'm pretty sure she'll come by tomorrow. It's too late for implantaion I think. TTYL!! I'm gonna go get ready for bed.

Hi ya'll!
I was reading the beginning of your thread, and I noticed you had experienced the same issue I did. My OPK's were gradually getting darker, and then one day suddenly got super light and have been light since then. Never did get a true +OPK, so I'm not sure if I really ovulated or not. Them things are very frustrating. But ANYWAYS, I was trying to find the spot on your thread where you got the results lol, and its a very long thread so I figured I'd just ask. What ever came from that? Did you ovulate or are you still waiting to find out? Thanks

BABY DUST TO ALL!!!

PS. I only tested for ovulation once a day in the afternoon, so I THINK I may have just missed my + OPK, but not sure. Feedback?

 

[babycrazy11]

Babyjla..... I think that your question is more for Gabby but I just wanted to let ya know that last cycle was my first time doing opks and I was doing them 2x a day. Usually mid afternoon and then again in the evening around 7:30. For me, I found that the evening ones were a little better. Ya just gotta hold in your wee a bit and dont drink to much liquid. It was in the evening that I am pretty sure I got a +opk. Good Luck hun!!

 

[babycrazy11]

Gabby.... if your pretty sure the ole is on her way then I sure hope she gets here quick so you can start again!!

 

[gabbyskyy]

So listen to this! Last night right around 10pm my cramps hit me in full force to the point I was starting to tear up. It felt like somebody kicked me in my lower back as hard as they could on the right side. I could barely move to get the remote to turn the tv off. I took some ibuprofen and fell asleep around 12:30. I woke up in the middle if the night to pee one drop of blood when I wiped no bigger than a dime. Woke up at 7am this morning and to my surprise, not a drop of blood on my liner or tp. My lower back is still sore but I'm feeling alot better. I took a pg test because I was thinking maybe it was implantation....bfn. I hope I don't have cysts or anything because the cramps reminded me of my very first period ever. I was telling myself if it got worse by morning I'd have to go to the doc. I don't know what's going on. If it's af, she's playing an evil game with me! It's too bad I can't give mother nature a piece of my mind!

 

[babycrazy11]

Well now that is wierd! I find my period to be quite different post pill. ITS STILL HERE! Its usually OVER by tuesday evening and today I am getting bright red stuff... just like it was starting all over again. Why are we so damn complicated ???

 

[gabbyskyy]

Oh gosh! Now she won't leave you alone! What a b@tc*! My tits were so sore last night and I usually sleep on my stomach/side...like left bby is squished....well, that wasn't happenin last night. My nipples were on fire! Now they're sore, but not nearly like last night!!! Maybe I'm just gearing up to slush my eggy away, but there's a glimmer of hope eggy caught. If af doesn't come full on, I'll test on Friday. I heard it takes a couple of days before HCG gets into your system after implantation......the thing is Iv'e never had implantation bleeding before. I don't think. Then again I wasn't looking for it when I got preggers with my 2.
Whatcha got going on for today? What time is it out there? It's almost 9am. Here.

 

[babyjla]

babycrazy11, thanks I didnt know that its good to test multiple times a day until AFTER it was too late. But we did BD every other night, so theres still a chance we caught it. If not, I'll try what you did next month. Thanks!!!

Hi there! I think you probably missed your surge or, if you're like me and this cycle maybe you're ovulating late. I thought for sure I o'd cd15 and missed the surge since I got a pretty darker one on cd16 and didn't test on cd15, but then got a true + oncd23 to my surprise. This would make sense since I am cramping bad last night and expecting af today on cd37. Your opk isn't truely positive until it's as dark as the control line. It can stay positive for a couple of days too I noticed. Just for fun maybe keep testing to see if you're o'ing late. I know how annoying it can be to keep seeing -'s, but opk's are tricky like that since we always have lh in our systems. Hope that helps and I wasn't too confusing.

 

[gabbyskyy]

So, this is funny and had to share. My hubby called me to talk about what he wanted to bbq this weekend, and he was looking at some chicken that was called "tender bird". he said what kinda name is that and that he would never buy it. LOL! I told him I have tender bbs. He said are you pregnant? I said you didn't notice the pain I was in last night! He slept like a rock as usual. I said if af doesn't show, I might be. So he says, "I'm surprised you haven't taken 16 pregnancy tests and blogged about"....I said I already did. Hahahaaha! he was like..."Oh lordy." LMAO! He thinks I'm a nut, but what a jerk for not even noticing how much in pain I was throughout the night!

 

[babyjla]

Hey gabby, thanks for the help I've got a couple tests left, so I guess it wouldnt hurt anything to keep testing. I've been feeling like pms for about 4 days, and I have had a pretty big increase in appetite. But I think it could be because I havent ovulated in so long my body is going nuts lol. I'm thinking I O'd on CD17, and I've heard that you can get preggo symptoms SUPER early, but I'm not sure...I'm on CD22, so we'll just have to see what next week brings us

 

[babycrazy11]

Honestly.... they dont have a friggin clue! At least he didnt CONGRATULATE you cuz you were throwin' up! Arsholes, the whole lot of 'em! Anyhoo... Ya know, our bodies can be pretty friggin wierd sometimes. Maybe what you had was IB?? Because of the whole late OV thing??? Sore bubbies, ??? Yeah, sure your getting bfn's but like you said it may take a bit for it to show, especially if you may have just had IB. And dont worry about not having IB in the past because I have read that a lot of women have had it with one pregnancy and not another. I have my fingers, eyes, toes and legs crossed... just so that you know, I can only cross my legs for another couple days though.

 

[babycrazy11]

BabyJLA.... good luck!!!! POAS GURL!!!!!!
