Just caught up! First off, HUGE congrats to Thencomesbebe (amazing lines!) and PurplePear. Yay yay yay. Well deserved BFPs!!!
But ugggh, the amount of losses our group has had recently. It sucks. I'm so sorry to everyone who has had a loss recently. There is nothing like the excitement of beautiful lines, only to watch them fade and disappear, or seeing an empty sac. This is all just so cruel. The cycle AFTER my loss sucked even more, because I got psyched up that "after a loss you're more fertile" and thought for sure I'd get pregnant right away again, and when it didn't happen, I was really sad and bitter. The past few cycles I've mostly felt annoyed or resigned. This one though, I can feel my hope returning. I feel very optimistic that this, or one in the near future, could be THE cycle. I sincerely hope so. My cycles have become like clockwork since starting Pregnitude powder. Very predictable, with O on CD14 (which is today for me). My timing has been good this time (O-5, O-3, O-2, O-1, O). Overall, feeling good about it.
Nima, so glad that your testing turned out well and you ARE ovulating. I can't remember which does it, but doesn't either pineapple core or brazil nuts help with lining? I was using both when I had my son, but don't remember which does what now.
This time I'm doing: Pregnitude, prenatal, ubiquinol 400, calcium
Somebody asked about symptoms on positive cycles versus BFNs. For some, not having symptoms is the symptom, but for me, the two times I've gotten pregnant, I've had different symptoms. I get one evening where my uterus feels hot, like it has a heating pad on it, and tingly. And then the next day I start getting what I describe as a "taffy pulling" sensation, like someone is stretching and pulling on my uterus like it is taffy. A very distinct feeling. That happened to me both times I had positives, even though one was an early loss. I don't know if it'll happen again that way, but I hope so. I get other things, but I think they're all psychosomatic. These are the only ones that I don't think are all in my head, lol.
