Let's grab that BFP with both hands and make it ours! January Testing Thread

[Wish4another1]

Erose - exactly - my temp didn't drop and I take it the same time every day 3:45am - that is when my hubby gets up for work!!!!!
Yes that's early but even on weekends that is when I take it...
I put my chart back until AF shows up in full force... not requiring a liner right now... just cramps and an occasionally something when going to bathroom tmi I know... but feels like any minute the witch will ride!!!

I don't understand what's going ... maybe temp drop tomorrow and then AF for reals...

I love as the egg turns terri!!!!!
Terri I think I would go to your appointment and ask about your lining - just in case Your uterus needs investigating!!! Just a thought...

Erose- I'm with Terri no investigating previous charts!!! I'm being optimistic for you!!!

 

[Wish4another1]

Well my chart on my phone is right... not sure why it didn't update

 

[Katie Potatie]

Terri, I'm like you, and just let nature take it's course. If I'm late by the 30th, I will test. There's nothing more that I hate seeing than the stark white abyss of a pregnancy test!

Wish, if this is your first month really sticking to your regiment don't despair just yet! It takes time for supps to really get in there and start working their mojos sometimes . Of course that doesn't mean you shouldn't cover all your angles though so hopefully you get some input from a doc that really knows their way around fertility issues ASAP .

awwww...lots of girls need today!!!!! Except ERose...she just needs heehee

AFM no symptoms I might test tomorrow morning.

 

[SweetPotatoPi]

Sprinkle, sprinkle Future Mom!

Have positive thoughts, the fact still no drop, is a GOOD sign?

FX for you and understand the white abyss (shivers)

Another FX, Oh wouldnt it be great if we got 3 BFPs just in the last week?

afm, what with DF home I cant get onto my laptop that often, plus I decided to start getting out more and have started ballroom dance classes and have also joined my local choral society! DF came to the dance class with me, but only lasted 20 mins before retreating to a bar! I also had to see my GP yesterday for blood tests for the fertility clinic appointment next month. She has been my GP for last 20 years and is a lovely woman. We talked first about my mmc and then she took my bloods for the hiv, hepatitis, rubella and other sti's. I asked about my hormone tests from last Aug & Sept, should I bring them? She went through them with me and was amazed that on my 21 day bloods I had a P of 66! Actually so was I! She recommended I get new tests as clinic might think they are a wee bit old now, so waiting for the big O then go in for day 21 & day 3. So that I am armed for the clinic! TBH I am not sure what they can offer me at my age, clomid I suppose and IUI, that's about it I think.... But as my GP said, seems I have no problem getting pregnant, just keeping it seems to be the issue and that is very much age related....

ps I should O today have eggwhite and CV is high, firm and open, now to persuade DF to boogie...

terri- for me step 1 isn't even fertilisation, it's ovulation! Except for my withdrawal bleed, I haven't had an AF that's more than a light flow for a couple days and really it's mostly just been spotting. I don't think anything is building up now. I hope my GP can figure out what's wrong and it's an easy fix. Still no sign of AF for me but my symptoms are going away now.

to everyone in limboland. It is so frustrating to be there!

Batty, that P result is awesome! That was in the middle of your luteal phase, right? Wow!

I was researching my newfound "condition" of POI (POF), and came up with this mind-bender. I had to show you ladies this, it is pretty extreme. Sliced and diced ovaries. Literally.

[Fezzle]

Oh, Futuremom- that is fantastic news!!! Big congrats!!! You've saved the thread and given us all hope!

 

[ERosePW]

Future Mom, best news ever!!! Yay! Congrats!!!!

 

[terripeachy]

Congratulations Future mom!! I am in shock, but I am SOOO excited for you. I'm in the dumps today at work (already and i've only been here an hour), so this really made me happy.

What are you going to do to tell DH?

 

[garfie]

Future - that's great news hun

Can we take a peak at the test (you know how we love to look)

I am so excited and happy for you

AFM - Thanks for all your support ladies - it looks like the road with my son is going to be very rocky hey though what's new



X

 

[terripeachy]

garfie-Stop crying, please. You're making me sad after such good news.

batty-Sad you won't be online as much, BUT, your classes and getting active with DH are good things. Hobbies are good things, and it passes the time.

Oldermom-I'm a little nervous to read your link, but I will still take a quick peek.

Fezzle-Did the witch get you? You seem a little down today when you talk about ovulation. Are you not ovulating? Girl, you better get your chart up next time so we can all sneak a peek.

Futuremom-Yeah...give us some lines to see. hee hee.

 

[Wish4another1]

YAY FUTURE MOM!!!!!!!
and I agree post that BFP!!!

batty - love the dance lessons - probably couldn't get my guy to walk into the joint!!! and yes - hobbies are good...

garfie sorry to hear you are struggling... we have a boy with autism in our family too...

fezzle - i worry that I do not ovulate either - even though I see the temperature changes and everything... here's hoping your GP will investigate and get you on the road to popping an egg!!!

AFM: well hello temperature dive!! it actually made me feel relieved - although AF has been teasing for 3 days - she still has not made her official arrival... but atleast my temperatures are more "normal" - NOW ON TO FEB!!!

this morning I worked out with my trainers and came home and knocked out time on the treadmill... felt great!! until I got to work and I forgot my breakfast...

I am thrilled about a BFP TODAY!!! what a great way to start Friday!!

Have a great day ladies!!

 

[Fezzle]

terri- No, still no sign of her! Not even a tinge. I at the point where I would welcome her to come and be normal, because it would indicate I had a normal cycle!

I've been doing OPKs since I got off the pill last year in July and still have yet to see a positive one on an ic, a smiley or even a flashing smiley on my CB digi, or a peak on my CBFM (I do get 'highs' for most of the cycle so far though). I'm not sure if you can see my previous cycles with my chart link, but they've been all over the place with length and bleeding.
