light hearted ttc

[TTCwitPCOS]

Hi Ladies!

I'm back from my honeymoon. It was brilliant and the OH and I are now thinking about moving to Spain! It just seems to be so much better out there for us

Well don't know if i told you but the test at the drs was neg and I did a test a few days later before we went on hol and it was neg so i'm putting it down to an evap. I've looked at the signs I was having and found that it could have been ovulation around that time so that was nearly 2 weeks ago so just got to have my fingers crossed!

Ashley *hugs* I hope you're ok. As Patrice said, men just seem to deal with things differently. My OH has always maintained that he will NOT trust a preg test. I will not be definitley pregnant untill the drs confirm it with their tests and a blood test. I hope your OH will come around soon *Hugs*

Patrice That sure is a wierd cycle. I'm not sure what could be going on but I hope it's all good news!!! :-D

awh i am sorry you are having problems, men are daft sometimes

Hi ladies! Sorry for the lack of update but iv been here reading! Sorry about ur oh ashley. He will come around.

So im 27 today argh. Iv had a pretty shitty day tbh. Im on my period and its heavy, i had a filling the other day which is still sore and iv hd a stressful day last minute shopping for lo birthday party tomorrow cos i had to wait till we got paid. We have so many bills we cant pay right now but i had to ignore this. Shes 1 on tuesday. I also fell out with oh earlier in the week so im stressed right now arrgh. Lo refused to sleep in her pushchair so was up from 12 to 7.30 which didnt help matters at all

 

[mzswizz]

aww jo Happy Birthday and hope your day gets better and you sort things out with your oh.

AFM, still no AF just on and off brown discharge..its brown with stretchy clear cm Im just letting my body do its thing. I will take a hpt tomorrow morning just to rule pregnancy out because my cycles aren't like this normally. Cramps, heavy bleeding, clots etc should be here by now. This is day 2 of spotting and I can pretty much wear a panty liner or no pad at all because its even barely there when I wipe.

 

[AC1987]

Patrice, It does sound like implantation but since you didn't ov, as far as we know then I'm confused, is your body completely normal from being on bc? or was there still left in your system as I've heard that can mess up your cycles for a bit.

Katie, how sad that it wasn't a bfp, I was kinda hoping it was so that we could be pregnant together.. its weird this time around it doesn't feel like a lot of people are with me again I mean there are other girls on the forum who was pregnant around the same time I was with Cassidy but we didn't talk like how we do on this topic and such wow I'm mopey!!!


Jo, aww man I know how it is with bills it SUCKS!! Its like there's never money left over after paying bills. Yeah Cassidy is the same she will only nap either in her carseat or crib, but not in her carriage.
Sorry to hear about the falling out I hope things get sorted out.

Zoey how are you? Taking a break from ttc I think I read?


AFM I got my learners!!! yaaayyy I can drive now And we celebrated by going out for dinner and I ordered a steak omg I coulda eaten the WHOLE thing only Cassidy started fussing so had the rest to go.
I know my dh will come around but I do wish he'd get happy sometimes I think to him since he's not the one going through it that it doesn't feel real at all. Like he didn't even call himself a father til after Cassidy was born.. so that's how he is.. I mean I don't mean to complain about him all the time, he is really good in someways but in others gaahh he annoys me

 

[mzswizz]

Ashley-our men...we gotta love em and hate em But im pretty sure he'll come around and congrats on getting your learners!!!! And the birth control is completely out my system. I had 2 normal AFs around my normal cycle length time and my bleeding length time so I have no clue whats going on here. But I don't even think I o'd for both of those cycles and during those cycles...I had right ovary pain and cramps and all the symptoms in the world but just like clockwork, I had light bleeding and then BAM full blown AF but this time I just don't know. Because I had left ovary pain...which out of 23 years on being on this earth...I've never had. And then my temps are lower than the normal temps I have ever had, and now no matter what I do...AF is not starting. Its still brown spotting which is freaking me out because usually if I have an orgasm or something it just comes like I broke a wall And its like 10 days early than my normal cycle so who knows what my body is doing.

 

[magicwhisper]

sorry you had a bad night with your lo.

i am good, taking a break from ttc this month because we are both away around my fertile time next week oh is in manchester seeing friends and i am going to see my parents because is is going to manchester

i am just excited to see them, i haven't seen them in ages and i can only see them when the kids are off because of work *i work in childcare*

 

[mzswizz]

magic-yay for being able to see your parents. Even though my mom is terrified of flying (bad experience with flying on a plane)..they are planning to come around next year to visit DH and I.

AFM, im cd26 today and have no brown discharge last night. I was able to sleep with no pad etc and woek up this morning took my temp (vaginally) and there was nothing but white cm on the thermometer. Also, I would think that my temp will drop lower thinking that AF is on its way but its still in the 97s range and it really didn't drop as much. I took a test this morning and of course it was a BFN like I thought it would be (pics are below). I still on and off get the sharp pain in my left ovary which is weird. I seriously thought AF was coming because since yesterday (starting around 7 or 8pm) I was getting sharp pinching pains which made me think okay AF will be here later tonight or this morning. Currently, I don't have on any pads or panty liners etc..and there was no brown discharge as of right now. I used the bathroom this morning (which usually brings forth AF while im using the bathroom) and nothing but cm came out. Im not going to freak out or worry about it or stress about it anymore. I got my job interview today and I got my doc appt on Monday @ 9:40am so hopefully she can shed some light on why I had spotting. At first I was thinking maybe its my left ovary finally trying to work and this time around my pre-ov temps would be 96s degrees and my post ov temps would be 97s degrees. But that was just wishful thinking. The doc will be able to tell me if I o'd or not. These are the non tweaked photos so ladies feel free to tweak the pics

Last night:
This morning:
HPT from last night:

 

[TTCwitPCOS]

Good luck with your interview Patrice!

That is wierd! Could you be ovulating? You can have ovulation bleeding? I don't know!

Update: Feeling very tired the past few days! Bit of cramping. I've been feeling like Aunt Flo is about to come but she never does! I just want either a BFP or aunt flo just so I know where I am. I haven't had a proper flo since March.

Back at the doctors on Tues for her to give me tablets to aid weight loss. Hopefully they will work and with the weight dropping off, I should have better fertility. Just gotta hope!!!

xx

 

[mzswizz]

Katie-I was thinking that could happen. I have never experienced ovulation bleeding/spotting at all ever in my life before. Usually once I start spotting, it means AF is coming so get ready. The only time I had spotting was, when AF comes or when I had fell pregnant years ago. So I been thinking that maybe its AF just taking its sweet ol time because I am still having the sharp pains and they are REALLY sharp so we shall see what the doc says Monday or FF. Whoever confirms faster And gl to you on the weight loss plan. I know you're going to get your bfp in no time.

 

[mzswizz]

AF is finally here!! I jump started it So this was a 25 day, anon ovulatory cycle. Cant wait for the docs.

 

[AC1987]

awww sorry to hear Patrice!! So will this coming month you miss your chance too since your DH is away??

Katie, best of luck!! I hope you get a boost in fertility


AFM... I'm terrified of driving, haven't started yet but maybe tomorrow I will haha

 

[mzswizz]

Ashley-Im actually glad that this is happening so that my doc can start from scratch with me and monitor me closely Also, actually I wont miss our chance this month because the bleeding lasts for a week (give or take a day or two) and then I most likely wont ov until around a week or 2 from then. By that time DH will be home because he comes back on the 23rd And driving isn't that bad really. You just got to be aware of the idiots

AFM, I went to my interview and I have a second interview on Friday So my plan is to either have 1 job that gives me a good amount of hours...or just work these 2 short hour jobs.

 

[magicwhisper]

sorry about your bfn, good luck at the interview
hope your okay ashley
im still headachy so i think a migraine os on there way if you are not meant you take iboprophen when ttc you are definatly not meant to be taking my migraine tablets but i can't handle pain at all! so if i get a migraine i will have to take them

 

[AC1987]

That was the start of pregnancy for me, AWFUL migraines.. it sucked!!
Now its pretty much over with, though I still have a lot of visual disturbances..
I drove today, in a parking lot, omg it scared me bahah and then the first one we were at someone called the cops PFFTT! and my DH wanted me to keep driving but I got so nervous I couldn't so then we left and then the cop left hmmph! So we found a bigger one and went there. But man was not what I was expecting

 

[mzswizz]

Ashley-Glad you are getting the hang of it though! Hopefully in no time you will be driving around

AFM, well actually its cd27 Flow didn't start yet. Thought I jumpstarted it because it was more brown than usual and it had a few clots (or what I thought were clots) but it only happened at that point of time. And now its right back to on and off spotting. So once again, I haven't started my actual flow yet Oh well, atleast I got my doc appt. tomorrow at 9:40am so she can see whats going on. Hopefully, she can jumpstart my AF and then we work from there because this on and off spotting is just a pain and a waste of pads. Well, I have my 2nd job interview on Friday @ 2:15pm. And I go back to work at my job on the 27th. So if I get this job, seeing as both of them are short hour jobs, I can work both. And DH will be home in 12 days yay So im happy for that. Hoping I get something to help with the ovulation. And through researched, learned that if you don't ovulate a cycle, it can cause spotting etc. So that's probably whats going on. I took my temp at 8:15am instead of 7am but I used a temp adjuster to adjust the temp. My actual temp is 97.33 and the adjusted temp put me at 97.06 so I used that one. And from comparing my cycles...this cycle has the lowest temps out of all cycles. So I don't know what went wrong this cycle but I sure want to find out. Hopefully I will tomorrow. Will keep you ladies updated.

 

[AC1987]

Do update with what the doctor says


AFM not much happening, seems like Cassidy is changing her schedule on me yet again...

 

[mzswizz]

Ashley-will do and hopefully Cassidy gets a good schedule.

AFM, today im cd28 and it looks like this might be a long cycle. Im still spotting, but this morning, it wasn't there but I know it will be back later this afternoon. I have my doc appt. in the next hour or so. I cant wait to go to the doc and see what happens. On a good note, im doing good in school and almost done with the program so that's good because I will be able to find a job with my certification and it will be perfect for when I conceive and also I get better hours and more pay so im focused to get the program and certification done in a month. So wish me luck on that. This cycle has its ups and downs but now I am focused to make sure my body is in tip top shape to conceive and hold a pregnancy. So let's see what the future holds. Im ready for #1 to come. I think after that I'll most likely mellow out about ttc because I would've had a first already. I think the first one is just the challenge. And I do like challenges.

 

[magicwhisper]

Glad about your interview! Awh she decided to change things up hopefully it gets sorted soon

 

[mzswizz]

thanks magic!

AFM, im back from the docs and they said I have PCOS. I am now referred to a gynecologist and my primary doctor told me I might have to see a fertility specialist.
