June, month of new beginnings! Thread for laughter, support and POAS! 19 BFP!

Yeah I do fairyy. Last cycle was 25 days. They range anywhere between 25-27. But my miscarriages really whacked everything out I don't know what's normal for me anymore.
 
I wonder the same about the last dtd of SMEP. Its way too late for me. I ovulate on the 2nd day of +opk.

This time I am thinking of a modified version of SMEP. DTD ever other day once I see ewcm and then everyday for three days when +opk. Do you think its ok ? One more question, do you ladies BD at night and go to sleep straight after BD ?
 
I think that's a good plan fairyy if you get a lot of EWCM during your cycle. I tend to start doing the EOD thing as soon as my period ends because I ovulate early and I want the sperm to be nice and fresh. I can't go by EWCM because I don't seem to get it until I'm very very close to O.

Hi fairyy, we BD every morning this time round, whereas we usually dtd at night before that. Something worked for us this month so it could have been that? Some sites I have read say its better. Worth a try maybe?
 
Oh I missed that question fairyy. I have read that morning BD is better for those spermies. But my husband and I are definitely not morning people lol. So usually we just BD and then go to sleep. We've gotten pregnant 3 times within a year so I think it works just as well for us as morning BD.
 
We get tired by night time and all sleepy and not in mood. It's all because we go to bed late around 11 or 11.30pm. I don't want to risk it waiting till night and then sleep without any BD, specially in fertile week. May be we can :sex: in the afternoon or evening as I am going to "O" on weekend. Hope it won't harm.
 
I think as long as you get it in, doesn't matter too much what part of the day! But definitely do it earlier if you'll be too tired by bedtime!
 
Yes Confuzion. I want it to happen this cycle and if it happens then I will be due in February (our wedding anniversary). :)

We are trying since January 2013 but most of the cycles we did NTNP and few were TTC.
 
We started soon after you! Well since march 2013. We ended up conceiving on our third try (we were actively TTC though maybe not as hardcore about it as we are now lol). I had a February due date for my first ever pregnancy! Unfortunately it didn't last and February 2014 came and went without a baby. Second pregnancy was due in June and I'm hoping I have a BFP before then to help me get through that would-be-due date. And then I would likely have a babe in my arms before my last February due date comes around again. So a lot riding on this month emotionally for me!
 
I hope this is the sticky BFP month for you, Confuzion.:dust:
 
Confuzion, so true!!!

So, I just got back from my procedure. The cramping wasn't bad at all. Then again, I took 3 ibuprofen an hour before and a motrin 30 minutes before. FYI, it feels like you ate something really bad and need to go #2. The result is not great. Both of my tubes were blocked. He was able to unblock the left tube but not the right tube. While doing that, he noticed that my fallopian tubes enlarge abnormally. So he said that the possibility for me to ectopic pregnancy is pretty high. The good news is my uterine wall looks great so if I want to I can definitely do IVF. Appointment w/ the RE is not until June 24. I am going to have to make a couple phone calls tomorrow to see if they can see me earlier at their other location. So, I am just waiting to see what the RE will recommend but preparing myself for IVF. Maybe I can do a one and done deal...two babies...here I come!! Hahahahah.
 
Glad you have some answers honey. At least you know you can carry a little one once it gets in the right place. That's great news. Do you think you will jump straight to IVF then?
 
Not sure Tui. I'm still very indecisive. I think the possibility of us getting a BFP this month is pretty good but DH is worried about the higher chance of ectopic pregnancy. So do I. So we are on the fence.
 
Oh wow ILT. You sound so calm for someone who just got that news! I would be so upset! What's causing the blockage? Is IVF covered by insurance where you live?

If the right tube was unblocked, and you O from your right side this month, then potentially you could get pregnant with a healthy bean in the right spot, no? IVF just seems like such a big thing to jump straight to!
 
I presume they would scan you the minute you got a positive, and check where it was? Might be worth a go or two seing as they have unblocked one side? Depends if you can handle the possibility of ectopic. Might be a hard to cope with the consequences? I don't know much about it. Is it still dangerous if you catch it early?
 
Confuzion, oh no. Wasn't that calm. It took 10 minutes for my emotion to catch up with my brain. Then, 10 minutes of sobbing in the parking lot with DH. Drove myself home (DH) got stuck in traffic so had to drive myself home. Then talked on the phone with my sister and sobbed a little. I think I'm pretty good now. The blockage was caused by scar tissue. A few years back, my ex cheated on me and yup...he gave me std. So that could be the cause. Ever since then I was pretty paranoid until I met DH. Thankfully DH has a really great insurance. I haven't have to pay anything so far for the tests. I think our insurance cover 50% of IVF. He just told me if the risk for me to get pregnant is too high, he'd rather adopt. I'm all for adoption but I want to give this a few more try until we run out of options.

With that said I think I'm going to give it a try naturally this cycle. I read that even IVF and fertility drugs can end up in ectopic pregnancy. If we caught it early enough, then the risk is low. My game plan is to email my OB and explain to her the result of HSG. I need her to be aware of my situation in case we get BFP this cycle. Thankfully she is very responsive. Phewww. Big decision. I'm a little scared but what kind of life would it be if I don't dare to take any risks and fight for what I want. Fight till the end wohoo :D
 
Thanks, ladies, for all the love! <3

Got a negative opk today, so it's safe to assume I'm entering the tww. Awesome sauce. :) Gonna bd again for safe measures.

ILT--it's great that your OB is so proactive, in case you fall pregnant. And I think it's totally worth it to keep going before you hit adoption. I'm so sorry they were unable to unblock the other one, but am hoping the one the did drops that egg. :hugs: I'm so sorry, sweetie, that the results weren't what you were hoping--but I love your positivity and spirit. You're truly an inspiration. <3
 
GG thank you for the encouragement! I'm very eager to give it a try now. Maybewe can conceive naturally between now and my appt in June :)

Awesome sauce reminds me of the commercial! FX you catch the egg this cycle!
 
Thank you, ILT. I am hoping, too. We decided to just dtd every other day this time, instead of daily around the positive OPK. The past 4 months doing it daily around O time didn't work for us, so we're taking a step back and started dtd around cd13, every other day. We'll see. :D

ILT--I am SO hoping for you this cycle, too. I am fx that you will fall pregnant before IVF is needed. I had a friend who had only one tube and PCOS and ended up pregnant after they told her there was no hope, so I am sprinkling major baby dust your way! (ETA: Yes, it is from that commercial. LOL Everyone at work says it now)

Confuzion--odd to straddle these two lines, eh? May/June...or May, or will it be June. FX you get your O soon (around cd 13/14 this time). :D Should be any day for you now. We really are going to be close this cycle, seeing as I just finally O'ed.

Twinkie and Lynny--yes, I found you. Mu ha ha ha ha. :D
