Looking for a buddy/friend?!

[Faith n Hope]

Thanks girls! I mean I'm hoping there's nothing wrong but the longer you wait its hard not to worry! Sending lotsa baby dust I hope things go well for you both if you test?! Its just so frustrating! Just I'm so irregular I haven't a clue when I'm most fertile? I had my withdrawl period and then it was about 18 days, then 21, then about 56 days? I don't know whether its common practice or what but I hoped she might be able to suggest a bit more than saying just have sex 2-3 times a week and that healthy couples usually conceive within the year! I also said its hard because if I don't know when I'm due you have no idea when u r due or if u r late and it was hard not having a period for those 8 weeks because everytime I tested it was upsetting? But u think what if? I'm trying not to stress but that's easier said than done? U can't help but worry! I'm not sure what's best to do? she said that if I do fall though I can't go for a smear test?! Take care everyone and thank you I feel like I'm going mad n its really upsetting n getting to me! X

 

[SuperLilWifey]

Try a different doctor then. If she is so unwilling to help you with this before a year is up even though you want the advice I'd say at least get a second opinion on the matter maybe someone else will be willing to get you the help and the information you want instead of having to go through this every time its not healthy to be stressed out and upsetting when TTC even Doctors know that. I hope you get the help and information you need and do find nothing is seriously wrong or atleast get some advice on what to do about the irregular periods....sending *hugs!*



So I'm sleeping alot but that just could be because I like sleep lol I sleep all thru the night get up when DH has to get ready for work go back to sleep for a few more hours then do some things and then take a nap. I had the oddest dream last night as well. I was back in the house I grew up in and DH shoved a box of Test on the door and everybody was telling me to TEST TEST TEST! and I did take a test and it come out a BFP super fast but then it started to get all gray around the test and I got sad in my dream that it turned into an EVAP....

Never had a test dream before...

Hope everyone is doing fine!!! fxd & babydust

 

[MrsAttard]

Oh a test dream! Lol, I guess we know whats on your mind! I never remember my dreams, which is a shame since I keep hoping for vivid dreams, which I guess are a symptom. As far as sleep, I've been sleeping a ton lately, like 9-10 hours a night, even when DH is still awake playing video games.

I took a test this morning, which was BFN of course. I was expecting it so I wasn't upset. I'm hoping that if I test each morning I'll catch it early so I can be aware when moving and bc of thanksgiving (to wine? or not to wine?) I'm 7dpo today, and I'm feeling a little crampy, more like a pinching on the right side ovary area. The spotting has stopped, which I assume is bc I haven't taken the EPO in a few days. I'm really hoping this will be the month!! Come on sticky bean!!!

 

[Faith n Hope]

Thank you I might try that! Hugs! I dunno if im over reacting just its worrying n upsetting me?!
Aww!
Guess its playing on all our minds?!
Just everyone seems to be pregnant! It seems so easy!
Baby dust to everyone!
Hopefully this will be our month?!
I hate the whats ifs and the negatives and should I do this or not or what if I falls?!
Lol!
Hope ur all coping!
x

 

[SuperLilWifey]

What ifs and negatives will bring the spirit down. I try every month not to let it get to me but then AF shows up and it feels like I've failed at something. But If AF shows up today or within the next few days I will try and make it thru it with a positive feeling that this just isn't my time yet and will go on with the, If it happens it happens its out of my hands. What else can I do? The full year of TTC is fast approaching and we might see a doctor and we might not. I'm not sure anymore.

On a side note, I got into this couponing thing like on tv haven't done anything like they've done but it is a rush to get a bunch of stuff for pennies on the dollar though!! Makes me giggle I have fun with it and gives me something to do while trying to take my mind off the negative side of things!

 

[Faith n Hope]

Aww well at least ur finding stuff to take your mind off things!
Keep us posted! Hope its good news!
Ur right its totally out of our hands!
x

 

[SuperLilWifey]

I think AF is gonna show her ugly head tomorrow. I had some brown spotting today so I don't know. Feel kind of down too its so hard to try and keep positive when it sees like no one else wants to be positive right along with you?

Hope everyone is doing well!

 

[SuperLilWifey]

AF got me I kind of knew it would. I don't know if I want to try anymore. I told him If we didn't get pregnant by the end of the year I'd be kind of disappointed in myself like I failed at something. and the end of the year is close by. Well Thats life I guess. Not sure I want to keep trying well NTNP maybe I just need to stop for a few months just to give myself a break with it all...I don't know.

GL & FX for yall!!

 

[Faith n Hope]

Aww im sorry hun! Hope ur okay considering? It does get to you! x

 

[MrsAttard]

Hey ladies! Been busy with the move and Internet not hooked up yet(on my phone now) so I prob won't be on much for a little while. As far as the move...it was horrid! DH's parents were getting a truck but ended up not getting it for some reason so we WALKED everything to new place using hand trucks!!! I mean, it's only five blocks but it was exhausting!!! Now I'm just hoping to get things sorted enough for thanksgiving this week.

I'm still getting stark-white BFN, but I haven't started my pre-AF symptoms yet, so we'll see. I pushed myself a bit harder than I prob should have with the move, but I couldn't help it. DH was concerned, but we're both so used to failing with ttc that we're pretty sure this isn't the month either anyway. Here's to another month gone! Statistically, one of us bound to get one soon!

 

[SuperLilWifey]

True I figured out this is like the 13th cycle I've had since TTC/NTNP. Good news though had me thinking about it. If I don't get pregnant this cycle (which probably wont) I can party it up for my birthday most likely!! I'll get another Period around Dec 17th which puts OV around Dec 3rdish I'm guessing. (still don't know the difference between ttc and ntnp besides ov test and stuff) sooooooo if AF does show up I am good to go to party it up on my birthday on the 28th! well in my book I am! I need to end the year with a good note and a few good parties its been stressful!!!


Sorry the move was so bad I hate moving i've done it so much back and forth state to state that I was too a point where I just wanted to leave everything and buy new stuff

 

[MrsAttard]

Well, we've got settled in nicely this week, and it feels very much like home already. We were even able to be organized enough to make thanksgiving, and for our first, it went very well! As cd 28 passed and then 29, I started letting myself get excited. But alas, af came on Saturday, full force.

I surprised myself in that I was neither surprised or very upset, I guess I just expected it at this point. I think I've really come to accept that no matter how much I hope or wish, or how delusionally optimistic I am, this may not happen all on it's own. I don't even think there's anything else new to try. When it's the woman's issue, there are a multitude of things to try, but for men.....

In any case, DH has his renal appt (annual check-up for his kidney that he hasn't been to in nearly three years!) in the morning, and we're going to talk to them about the effects of his medication and ask about getting an SA done. Otherwise, I think I'm going to try to take it easy this month, try to enjoy the holidays without officially ttc. However, I'm still hoping to bd as much as possible....just in case!

 

[SuperLilWifey]

I hope the check up went well!!! Yes I think I've come to the point also I wasn't upset too much it was kind of I accepted it pretty much...

On a side note. I'm not sure if my kidney is acting up but it doesn't feel like the infection I had last year.. Which was horrible painful I couldn't even stand let alone breath it hurt so bad. But it seems to me I've been going to the bathroom more than I usually do. (im going to watch the clock and count it up) AF started light monday but it was a bit light like it always ways then I had to some what medium to heavy days tuesday and weds then it just completely stopped which is kind of normal although it normally last 4 days to 5 days with end spotting of brown... Makes me wonder since my cycle is some what on the short if I would ever tell I am pregnant since implantation would happen a few days before AF would start that maybe AF or something like AF show up still since its short? But then wouldn't it wash it away?

Just some thoughts I've been having and thinking about it.

 

[MrsAttard]

So we had DH's dr's appt today, and everything is good with the kidney. When we said that we were ttc the dr said 'oh.....' as if she knew that it was going to be an issue. She has referred us to a FS so that we can get an SA done, but I think I'm going to wait until after the first of the year. She also said that it's possible to switch him off the medicine that's created the problem and that it should raise his numbers within a few months (hopefully) but DH doesn't want to mess with his meds. The med they would switch him to he's been on before and his body still rejected the kidney with it. So, that's sort of a last resort.

Overall, it's nice to get some idea of where we're going next, but I think I'm going to basically take the month off for the holidays. Any idea how much a FS appt costs? We have insurance, but I'm not sure this would be covered. I think I'll be checking out the Assisted Fertility section more from now on....

 

[SuperLilWifey]

I haven't a clue how much an FS appt cost but im sure someone else on this site can help you out though. Glad his appt went well. and taking a month off to enjoy the holidays sound wonderful!!

I've been feel so icky my stomach is kind of upset and i've been a little crampy but more of a bloated heavy feeling since my period ended almost. DH thinks I got a virus or a bug or something but I don't know I just feel icky. and I feel like im getting a cold but it just wont go into a full cold. Which sucks cause I wish it would so it could get over with already!!

 

[SuperLilWifey]

I hope yall are doing well!!!

I had some spotting Weds and Thurs, then nothing. But I didn't think nothing of it not going to think about it. I'm going to enjoy getting ready for the holidays!

 

[MrsAttard]

Things have been crazy here, and ttc has been the least of my concerns. DH got really sick, and we ended up taking him to the hospital. He only had a virus, but then they started doing some other tests and found that there's something wrong with his liver, and with his natural kidneys. So, he's been to the dr's three times in the past week and a half, and he has to go see a couple specialists next week, in addition to having a CT scan. Plus, on top of all that my best friend and her bf are visiting.

All things considered, I'm not freaking out and upset, but it is frustrating to put up with right before the holidays. I'm just going to keep focusing on Christmas and shopping, but I look forward to when we can ttc again.
