January testers unite! 88 Testers and Counting!

[Cppeace]

I'm congested and sneezy. Having mild cramps on and off, muscle cramps in legs, shooting headache on occasion and I think I'm getting heart burn... I never get heartburn! Craziest cycle ever I swear.

I'm CD 18 and no ovulation so far. OPK negative every day, no drop and increase in heart rate or temperature. Had EW two days ago and was getting excited but it was only one patch and that has been all. Getting impatient and worried. Before the pill my cycle was regular and always 28 days, now this is my second cycle off and nothing's happening. 😔 Sorry for the rant. This is worse than the tww.

Good luck and baby ! I hope you get s!

I got a on New Year's Day 2009 and it was a great way to start out the year. Lennox was born September 8th and such a blessing after having a loss the year before. He was actually due on the 13th which was 9 months exactly from when I was due with my April 2008 loss. [edd December 13th, 2008]

Sorry Estarla. Yes, coming off bc is different for everyone. Some women 1 or 2 months to normal, some it takes 6 months or more. Hope you get that eggy to drop soon.

Mom2pne, A new years bfp would be awesome! I will be testing then.

AF started today so I'm in the January thread now! it's a pleasure to be with you ladies and be apart of the journey this month

AF in January is due around the 26th so I'll probably be testing around the 20th. I'll post again after Ovulation but I think I'm gonna try and keep a very low key hands off approach this time to try and reduce stress. Goodluck to all those in the TWW right now!

 

[Cppeace]

Well, Canadianmoose, welcome and great luck for a new years BFP!

8DPO and I'm also starting to feel sick - sore throat, congestion, sneezing - but I think it's just from it actually being cold and not getting as much/as sound of sleep since we've been out of town for over a week. My back is really killing me and now my cramps feel like AF and not twinges so...

 

[Cppeace]

Af cramps at 8dpo is a great sign. What is your normal lp?

 

[babylights]

It is?? It's 16 days so I'm smack dab in the middle. I pretty much have all of my PMS symptoms. I'm also super moody I think but that's also because my MIL such. a. weirdo!!! Ugh such a bizarre woman.

It looks like you had a nice implantation dip! How are you feeling today?

 

[Cppeace]

What I had was too early for an implantation dip. It was just an estrogen surge.

Yes, AF like cramps, especially 7-11 dpo is a great sign for many.

 

[babylights]

I was reading up on implantation and although rare, apparently it can occur as early as 3DPO. FX!! Wish I could send you the dust emoji but i'm on my phone lol

 

[Cppeace]

well, those aren't true implantation dips. An implantation dip is caused by a rush of estrogen as the blastocyst is enveloped into the uterus. Early drops(before 6dpo) are from just a surge of estrogen that can occur from the fertilized egg sending out chemicals, or just normally without a fertilized egg for some. I had ewcm through 3dpo and a touch of it on 5 dpo as well. I have had really high estrogen this cycle I would guess. No clue why. Totally unusual for me, but is why I ovulated so early.
It also could be why I may have dropped two eggs
We shall see in a few more days. My Lp is generally only 10-12 days.

Here's to hoping that unusual means theres a baby in the works for you

Thank you Dream

 

[Estarla]

Good luck 😊

thanks

 

[Mom15]

Cppeace - can you add me? As always I don't know when AF will be due because I'm so irregular. I would love to achieve O between CD20-25. So maybe you can put me down at the bottom as to be determined . Will go back and read through the thread to see who is here and how everyone is doing

 

[Cppeace]

Will do Mom15 Welcome! Hope you ovulate just when you need to !

 

[StillPraying]

Hello ladies!

Peace we always seem to end up on the same threads! Lol

my cycles are still messed up (mc in Aug and 2 chemicals) DH and I are "NTNP" but I intend to make it a little more trying by pulling out some lingerie this month lol My DD1s birthday is January 27th so I plan to test that day for good luck

Okay going to read through and get to know all of you lovely ladies!

 

[Cppeace]

Welcome StillPraying! Always glad to have you! I will definitely put you down for the 27th!

Sorry AF got you, but a January bfp is magical for a great year to come!
