It's been 7 weeks since mc but still not af...when to ring the GP?

[mackjess]

Get to it MLM!

I know it's hard when you're not in the mood. Just try to think about the loving new baby you'll get out of it and how you can create a little miracle just by hopping in the sack. That helped me, seemed to make it feel more special when I wasn't really feeling like it.

When's your next scan Mack?? So exciting you're in your second tri!

 

[mackjess]

I had my NT scan a few weeks ago, and my next scan isn't til March 7th!! I think its the high detail one (yay for being an old lady!) since I have to go to the genetic specialist again for it. So that should be worth the wait. Got to hear the HB at my appt today and will hear it again 2/21.

Happy weekend ladies.

Mackjess, pleased to hear your pregnancy is progressing well.

Are you symptom spotting Mlm? I have been very aware of every tug and twinge but trying very hard not to relate it to a potential bfp. Think I'm 6dpo today but I'm really not sure I did o when I think if at all.

Hmmm waiting waiting

DH and I decided this was our last official 'try' with my every focus on ttc. Yesterday I bought new running shoes so it's time to shift my focus on dropping some weight and just getting healthy and take a NTNP approach. I'm feeling good though and positive about everything.

How are you mrs phez? Gearing up to o soon? Still having glow in the dark wee from the vitamins? How are your temps? The snow has melted here and the sun is shining today

 

[mlm115]

I'm trying not to symptom spot, but of course it's hard not to! Went to a wedding last night and didn't have any cocktails just in case... Too bad we can't know right away if we're pregnant or not. Waiting stinks!

Glad you are feeling positive Jane. I think your ntnp plan sounds good. And it's always good to get yourself healthier. I'm pretty thin, but I don't eat very well nor do I excercise, so it is pure luck I'm not bigger than I am. All the same, that doesn't mean I'm healthy so I need to work on diet and excercise myself.

Testing soon Jane?

Are you joining us in the tww yet Mrs Phez?

I wish we could get an update from Bobster! I hate that she seemed so down when she left this thread.

Hello!
Been on a spa weekend with my girlfriends, brilliant fun, lots of vino. Missed my temp this morning as thought it would be completely out of whack after the alcohol, late night and lie in. BUT I did an opk when I got home and blow me, it's on it's way! Had some EWCM and thought best check. It's only CD12!!! This is unheard of in my cycle history and I think has to be due to the B complex. I upped it to 100mg a day. Actually cant believe I miht have a "normal" cycle. Hope DH is up for some action! I'm hungover but I will sort myslef out!
So hopefully I'll be in the 2ww v soon
Keep twiddling those thumbs, feeling excited for you both!!

 

[GI_Jane]

I actually tested this morning with an internet cheapie! but of course was BFN as I think I'm only 6dpo.
I will probably test once more in a couple of days time and then just wait for af. I didn't have any symptoms until after my BFP last time so I almost don't expect anything I might be feeling to actually mean i'm pg.

Will you wait for af before you test?

Good for you not having any cocktails!

So I ordered that book, taking charge of your fertility- I've really got to figure out when I am ovulating without relying on OPKs but I don't want to temp either and don't get ewcm since the mc so hoping the book will provide me with some insights. I might not be officially trying after this cycle but I am genuinely interested in what might be going on.

I have a good feeling for you mlm, just think a new house and a new baby- that would be wonderful wouldn't it?

Yes i agree, bobster was quite low when she left- i might send her a private message just to check she is ok.

Thats great Mrs Phez and a bit of BD'ing will be a great way to end your spa weekend....Think I will have to try high levels of B complex too!

 

[mackjess]

I'm having a boy. =)

 

[mlm115]

I'm having a boy. =)

Oh my gosh!!! How exciting!!!

 

[MrsPhez]

I'm having a boy. =)

Amazing! Little boys rock. Congratulations!

 

[MrsPhez]

I got my pos OPK this morning. We dtd last night so I'm kind of in the 2ww. I'm so excited, to get a pos on CD13, I still can't believe it. Jane I def reccommend B100 B complex. Gotta be worth a shot of getting those elusive 28 day cycles. How are you all, symptom spotting or just being relaxed about it?

 

[mlm115]

Woo hoo, go mrs Phez! So glad your cycles are regulating, you must be happy about that. Are you going to dtd again today just in case?

The farther along I get in this tww, the less relaxed I am. Yesterday I convinced myself I'm pregnant because of some twinges in my lower abdomen/uterus area. Then my logical side kicks in and I tell myself that I wouldn't feel anything yet and to relax! Haha.

If my DH is up for it, then yes we will! No pressure! We conceived our son by dtd day before o I think so would be a good time, even tomorrow as well would be reassuring.
When I was pregnant with my DS I had twinges, a bit like period pain. Also bad constipation (sorry for the tmi) and tiredness like you wouldnt believe. Nothing else though.

 

[mackjess]

ohhh MLM, praying you are next. We need some more BFPs! And Phez, great about the OPKs and the timing. I'm sure you are catching the eggy as well. Fx for you both.

 

[GI_Jane]

Congrats mackjess on a boy, I remember you posting a thread about the shettles method (I think that's what it was called) so it look like it worked for you!

I've had a nice amount of Ewcm all day so I think I might only be ovulating now! Just in case this is really is it I will jump on DH tonight! And I thought I was 7dpo! I seriously need to work these timings out!

 

[mackjess]

Jane, I think I debunked shettles method! LOL, we dtd DAYS before I O'd and that is supposed to give you a girl. Not that I really was really going for a girl, DH was sick so we didn't try again closer to O date.

Looks like you and Phez will almost be in the 2ww together, and hopefully MLM gets things started right with some positive news.

How many DPO are you mlm?

 

[mlm115]

I'm pretty sure I'm just 6 dpo today. I really really realllly hope I get a bfp, and Jane and Phez get them too!!!

 

[MrsPhez]

Let's go for the hat trick!

 

[bobster]

Hi everyone. I know I said I was leaving for a while but the more I get into the 2ww the more I need to talk to someone. Catch 22. I think after this cycle I will go off for a while. I'm sorry for leaving so quickly I was just feeling very emotional.

Jane yay about your ewcm! Sounds promising that you are actually ovulating now! Hope you get lots of bd'ing in!

Mackjess woop congratulations on your baby boy, how exciting! I always thought shettles was quite a reliable method but goes to show probably not.

Mlm, MrsPhez, hope you are both ok in the 2ww.

Well, I will give you a quick update, I got a positive opk on 17th but after that kept having ewcm (for 6 days total) so carried on doing opk's, all of which were negative until a blaring positive (more than first as lines were same colour when pulled the test stick out) on the 23rd! So I am now 5dpo so more in line with you mlm! Managed to bd the day before and the day of the

Not really having any symptoms in particular, a slightly sore to touch left boob but nothing much else.

Anyway like I said sorry for abandoning the thread. I think when/if af comes then I will have a proper break and leave for a while... hope you are all doing well
