January TTC-ers

[BubbleOnBoard]

I've been trying I guess now for 8 months, before that we've been not trying not preventing for 2 years!! I did fall pregnant oct 2013 but had to have a medical d&c in December Since then, nothing!

They have done a scan as I bled from August - Dec continuously, and by that I mean there wasn't a day that went by that I didn't bleed!!! The scan came back clear - they assumed a cyst or something was causing the bleeding!! I then had a smear test which came back abnormal - again more tests were done and it came back the excessive bleeding caused an abnormal result!

Then I have to have bloods done, on day 4 of my period and day 21 after my period - well as you can imagine when im constantly bleeding I wasn't sure how to do those tests but I stopped bleeding the week of Christmas and then started bleeding on the 4th Jan so this month ive actually managed to have the tests done and the results go to my doctors tomorrow but im going to hold out until Monday so that I can do a pregnancy test before I go as I know the next step is medical intervention!

I've always been very fertile! Always used protection up until 2 years ago and ive had my daughter on the pill and my son on the iud. Ive also had 3 misscarriages all whilst being on the iud!! Yet it seems the minute I come off protection and try nothing happens!

I'm hoping now the bleeding seems to have stopped that I have a chance again but its been getting me down so much! I know a lot of people out there have been trying a lot longer then me, and don't have any other children so I hope this doesn't offend anyone!

I guess if the docs are going to run tests and help me out then Im not going to say no! But please note, the help was solely because of my bleeding and abnormal smear... fingers crossed the blood work comes back fine - or better still I find out im pregnant on Monday! haha x

MummyKP - have hope! However hard it is, I feel like i'm out but i'm trying to distract myself from worrying about it - after all worrying doesn't change things so they say!

I'm telling you now, between now and falling pregnant I'm going to have a very clean house! I spend every hour under the sun cleaning - I feel like its almost a coping mechanism.

I think my children think I've lost the plot ha ha

We will all get there in the end, whether its this month, the next or even a year from now - our perfect ending is still in reach! Would love for us all to fall pregnant and be bump buddies though, you've really all helped me to keep busy and vent!

Ladies after reading the last few posts I think we have all had some great symptoms this cycle!

Bubble, I'm so sorry you've had such a frustrating time the last two years, fx everything does come back fine for you xx

A little update on me now, I'm 11dpo and have had the following symptoms over the last few days: frequent urination, tiredness, dull pressure in my lower abdomen on both sides, and yesterday my veins in my boobs became really visible! I'm pretty fair skinned so I can see them normally, but wow they have become really blue. I have blue boobs however that could be a change from coming off my pill, so still trying to keep my hopes down lol. I am also quite irritable the last two days, but could just be because I'm so so tired going to wait till Friday to test still.

I woke up with killer period pains this morning �� x

 

[disney516]

Bubbleboadd- u aren't out till AF shows up!! I hope those pains go away! Fx!

Mummykp- your symptoms could be symptome, u r deff not out yet either! U r 5dpo? I am looking forward to more symptoms from u and eventually tests lol. I'm getting eager.

Casey- I can't wait for u to test and I give u SOO much credit for holding out this long so far wow!! Can't wait to see your test when u r ready I know what u mean about still liking that u can have hope and not wanting to let go of that. Ughh tww ... blahh

Lozzie!! Friday can't come soon enough. I'm SO excited for u! I've read a lot of posts that talk about "blue boobs" ending in a bfp lol!! Do u usually get thus around your af?

As for me, I'm literally just getting up and waiting for my turn in the shower lol. I'm excited to report that I took my temp and it went up more! Yayy! I hope this is a good thing. I don't know why I'm so nervous. Well I do lol... but this temping thing has me so preoccupied. I guess it's good to pass the time. I will write back in today if I get any symptoms ...

Baby dust and Fx if anyone tests today!!

 

[Lozzielaula]

Disney, I'm sure i've read that elevated temps for at least 8 days or something is a really good indicator of pregnancy so i'm very excited for you! As for my blue boobs I have never seen this happen to me before. When I was undressing yesterday I noticed them and turned around to face OH. he said 'Well that's new' and told me to go to the doctor he didnt realise it could be a symptom and neither did I until I googled it. But there were some pages that said it can be attributed to a hormonal change after coming off bc pills.

Bubble, you arent out till the witch comes. Remember cramps and pains can be both a sign of af or pg, keep us posted

So I did a really stupid thing last night and took an ovulation test. because I have no self control I just feel so weird so I had to check. It did come back positive though. aaaahhhh! So what does that mean????!!!! I have looked and some have said it can lead to a BFP and some say no way, I could be ovulating again. ugh. so obviously the only way I can know is to take a preg test. I hope i'm not ovulating again!!! at 14 dpo!!!!

other new symptoms. One boob is sore. not both....just 1... and I got up at 130 am to go to the bathroom and I was dizzy and nauseous.

Baby dust to all of you!

Bubbleboard - I am so sorry the last few years have been like that. I hope you get good news.

 

[Caseyren]

bubbleonboard - I can't believe you got pregnant twice on BC!!!!

I've decided whenever it is I so get a BFP and have my 1st, I don't think I'm going back on BC. I do like how it regulated my cycles but I just felt like it was so bad on my body when I came off. Does that make sense? ha

 

[BubbleOnBoard]

Well my period pains only lasted an hour or so but still dampened my mood!

So this afternoon ive cleaned all my carpets and hung some new pics in my son bedroom - literally anything that stops me from sitting down and feeling sorry for myself haha!!

Caseyren - I personally would do a test just to stop your worrying! Worrying is the worst!! You're doing so well at holding out though! Well done you!!

[MummyKP]

Bubbleonboard sorry to hear you've had a tough few years!

Disney I don't know how many dpo I am as I dont track....according to my app I was estimated to Ov on Thursday/Friday, so 5/6 dpo, but I dunno if I O'd earlier, maybe on the Tuesday....I'm really not sure. If I did then 8dpo. But saying that I've had a mixture of EWCM/wet cm since Sunday, and I don't know if I O'd late! So I have no idea!! AF due around 6th feb so a week Friday. If no AF I imagine I'll test on the Sunday. I hope the next 10 days go fast.

Lozzie not long now until testing, you have great symptoms, I think you might get your BFP!! Fx for you, we'll be waiting to see your result

Caseyren I've read a late positive OPK can be a sign of pregnancy so fx for you! I would test just so I'd stop thinking about it! Lol. Would drive me insane!

 

[Caseyren]

Yeah I'm going to go get a test. Its not healthy to worry anyways. I'm not going to test until tomorrow morning though. I will keep you guys updated!

 

[Mrs.Gj]

Casey and Lozzie - you both have super promising symptoms. I'm super impatient waiting for you two to test.

Disney - If you implant, your symptoms should start popping up starting any time in the next week.

MummyKP - You also should be on the lookout over the next week. Even though you don't know when it happened, doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Bubbles - You're testing this weekend right? Sunday/Monday time frame? How many dpo are you? And any unusual symptoms that stand out?

Gahhhh I'm so impatient. You testers... I'm happy to look for lines for you. And am totally fine with doing that as early as right now.. And as late as the EONS y'all are going to make me wait.

Symptom spotters.. I want updates!

I'm so excited for y'all.

 

[Mrs.Gj]

Ohhhh yay another tester while I was writing my post. YES!

Fx for you Casey!

 

[Mrs.Gj]

Also, I just realized I can't find my post thanking Lozzie and Mummy, do thank you very much ladies. Super excited!

 

[BubbleOnBoard]

I'm going to test sunday or Monday I think. Although I recon AF may show before then! We shall see I guess. For now lots of junk food to cheer me up! Haha. I'm
9dpo today xx

 

[Mrs.Gj]

Well fx that af doesn't show!

 

[MummyKP]

I will most definitely keep you posted. The past two days I've had a funny belly.....can't really explain the feeling, but it's not normal lol but that doesn't mean much tbh. My parents are down to stay with us the weekend AF is due, so I'm half tempted to test before they come so if I do get a BFP we can tell them face to face rather than over FaceTime, but I'm not sure how DH will feel about it as I know he'd rather wait it out a bit lol but I might suggest it to him! So may test the Saturday morning if AF is a no show ready to tell them that night.

 

[BubbleOnBoard]

9dpo and ive got a really unsettled stomach!! sorry for tmi, but once going toilet I'm then fine like nothing happened. Anyone else got this? Not even sure it's a symptom. Maybe I'm Just ill lol x

 

[MummyKP]

No I seem to have the opposite :/ constantly feel like I need to go to the toilet but struggling....it's an uncomfortable pain in my belly all day long!! Had it for 2-3 days! Humph!!

 

[MummyKP]

Sorry for tmi!! Googling away this symptom ATM haha
