KEEPING IT REAL *TEAM - IT WILL HAPPEN* Join me in the journey ladies! :)

[breakingdawn]

well I got some bad news ladies, af showed up this am but I'm not upset about it. with the neg test I did thurs I figured she was on her way but just taking her time.
I have a bachlorette party next weekend and the one thing i told myself if I wasn't pg, I was going to have some fun. I've told a few close friends about my stuggles with ttc recently and they have been pretty supportive they're going to be with me at this party so I'm sure they will encourage my drinking for the night.
it will happen when it happens right ladies. My sister inlaw sent my the nicest message the other day telling me to not give up hope about ttc and that just cuz we aren't pg doesn't mean that we have anything wrong with us. It kinda made me cry cuz it was out of the blue I haven't really talked about this with her so that means DF has been talking to his sister. He hates seeing me so upset and with my younger sisters recent pg news with baby#2 on my birthday last month he probably thought I was going to lose my mind. But I didn't I was happy for her I was sad in away but what am I going to do I work in a high stress job and I know that plays a big part in my stress level which does not help in ttc. I have however moved to a new place at work with more help so I'm not doing all the work alone like I used to for the last 2 years, it was hell. I think this move is going to help me I won't be so stressed anymore and I might finally get my bfp. I haven't given up hope yet ladies I got to stay postitive.
thanks for being here for me ladies it means so much.

It will happen for you! And I hope you have fun at the party!

Morning ladies.

Andrea - great bump pic!!
My tummy was really hard last night. DF teased me saying it was only the big meal I'd just finished eating that gave me such a hard tummy!

Sandy - so sorry AF showed up. But please dont give up! I can defo say seeing that BFP makes the long journey well worth it!

Hope everyone else is doing well. I'm really looking forward to Wednesday morning - 12 week scan and hopefully hear the heartbeat!
I have been having more good than bad days so defo on the up. Feeling really tired again this morning. Will need a nap this afternoon!

 

[breakingdawn]

Have a great scan! I have a scan on Tuesday to see where my placenta is now since it was low in week 20!

 

[JBear85]

Hey girls!! I know, I've been gone for ages and ages and I've missed SO much -- but I've kept up with those of you who are my Facebook friends

So here's my update -- I've been with my new man for all of 6 months, and admittedly - we have NOT been careful lately. Not the brightest idea, I know.... and AF is due in 4 days, but my body is playing some horrible tricks on me!! Thinking I MIGHT be pg, but I'm really trying hard not to overthink it because we've all been there before!!

I've missed you all!!

 

[breakingdawn]

It's nice to see you around JBear. Hope your new relationship is going great! Keep us posted on how you get on and if you end up with a BFP. Hope it makes both of you very happy.

Small update on me. I had my week 28 visit yesterday. Boy was it action packed. I got my finger pricked, blood draw for the glucose test, tetanus shot, AND my rhogam shot since I am rh negative. Needless to say my arm is bruised! But I got the results from my glucose test today and I PASSED! HOORAY!

I also had an ultrasound since my placenta was low in week 20. Not anymore! It is nice and high now. Such a relief. We also got our date for the c-section!!! Baby Alice will be here on July 5th shortly after 8am. Excited but nervous! I will be 29 weeks tomorrow!

Hope everyone else is doing well.. I will leave you with a couple of updated u/s photos!

Calling all my friends those I know and even the ones I do not - we may get to know each other here and share our experiences with.

This is an official *IT WILL HAPPEN* thread. I know the words - IT WILL HAPPEN kills us when they say that to us deep down whilst we rant about our TTC process, get tired of receiving BFNs and the witch showing up when we are all so hopeful of it getting past and staying away.

But can't deny the fact that it is rightly said - stressing over may delay our chances in conceiving. Have a friend who was trying for 18 months with no luck and the month she didn't try because they were going on a holiday to abroad it was the month IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED! She is still in shock. So ladies stop worrying - be positive - hope positive - pee positive =

My AF showed up this morning after receiving a BIG FAT NEGATIVE 2 days earlier @12dpo. I'm devastated everytime the witch shows up and cry for hours thinking I won't be a mom ever - but I have made a promise to myself this cycle that I'm done with stressing over the CDs/DPOs dates or calculations and will just let it happen. Let the nature take it's course.

Who wants to join me - Calling all of you! Everyone is invited - come and share some positive thoughts, baby dust and your journey from WTT to TTC to Pregnancy & Birth. Keep it real, ladies!

P.s- It's not necessary that you have to stop Charting or using OPKs to join in. Don't let me feel alone and embarrassed here.

Just now saw this thread so haven't looked at everything yet but i like your encouraging words and i plan on weeding through this thread and check it out. I realize you started this awhile ago. Thanks for your wonderful words. I'm on CD12 today and just started BD'ing with hubby this morning. Let the fun and anticipation begin.

Welcome TTCbaby! We do have some great success stories in here. I had an ectopic pregnancy in August of last year... I had surgery on 9/3/11 and I lost my right tube. By a miracle I got pregnant again less than 2 months after surgery and got my BFP on Halloween! I will be 29 weeks tomorrow!

Wishing you tons of luck on your journey! Keep us posted!

 

[skweek35]

Hi ladies,
So good to see you around again Jbear!!
Oh just to update you - I'm now 12 weeks preggers!!
Had my 12 week scan today and all is well with Speckle! Looks like I will have one rather laid back baby on my hands.
https://i522.photobucket.com/albums/w346/strirrel/speckle/Scan25042012-1c.jpg
Speckle seems to enjoy laying with legs up and hands behind the head!
After about 10 minutes of scanning, Speckle decided enough is enough. Turned over (facing my back) and went to sleep!! Little sod!!

 

[breakingdawn]

OMG!! Look at your baby just chilling in there, SO CUTE!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

LOVE those scans Skyweek 35! So cute!!!

 

[skweek35]

OMG!! Look at your baby just chilling in there, SO CUTE!

Sure is just chillin in there! And growing really fast!! They bumped my dates up by 4 days!!
Either one big baby or having it earlier than expected

 

[breakingdawn]

Wow!! Cute pics though. I get to meet my baby on July 5th it looks like!

 

[skweek35]

Lucky you!!!
Seems like just yesterday you shared your sad news!
And now you are about to meet your rainbow baby!! I'm soooo happy it all worked out well in the end!
But as the saying goes - all good things come to those who wait!

 

[breakingdawn]

I know... it is hard to believe I am already this far after what I went through last year. We really did have a miracle.

LOVE that name!! So cute!! It's so cool seeing everyone's pregnancies and births playing out, and keeping in touch/keeping fingers crossed for those who are still trying!

I really think AF is going to hit me this weekend... all month DB and I have been going hmm... something's off -- but now I feel like myself again so who knows!! AF is due tomorrow so I guess I'll have my answer soon enough!

 

[JBear85]

WOW just noticed how off my ticker is now - guess I've had some messed up cycles since I've been gone!!

 

[breakingdawn]

When will you test???

 

[JBear85]

When will you test???

I'm really not sure... I'm tempted to today, but I'm trying to force myself to at least wait until Sunday.

It's just been such a weird month!! First I had wretched Ov cramps, earlier than I should have Ov'ed... then I was crazy craving random stuff and eating everything in sight, and having insane dreams.

But other than that I'm myself - normal AF bb pain, no cramps yet though. And I've had a really bad cold all week, so I'm attributing my exhaustion to that.

 

[JBear85]

Now my ticker says AF is due today, iPhone app says tomorrow... hmmm...
