Looking for a buddy who logs in a lot :)

C Beary I'm sorry you tested bfn. How dpo are you?

I just started temping this month but what I've noticed so far is temping at the exact same time every morning is important. An hour changed my temp by .15 degrees! I just set my alarm for 6am and if it's the weekend I wake up temp and go back to sleep. Also I've learned it's important to temp vaginally and with an actual bbt thermometer. I didn't see the point or why I couldn't had a regular thermometer but it really helps for accuracy.

Thanks Mrs green. I'm 9/10 dpo so guess there is still time but it's hard seeing the bfn and squinting to try and see lines that aren't there!

 

[mrs.green2015]

It is really hard! But you do have time. With my bfp I tested bfn at 9dpo and then tested again at 13dpo with a bfp. I'm trying to not test early anymore because of that terrible feeling!

 

[Aayla]

Yeah, I'm trying to get back into the habit. it's so easy to fall out of it. I have to try and create a schedule for myself. I only work 3, maybe 4, days a week and they are graveyard shifts. I always keep a graveyard schedule but there are times where I have to be up a few hours early to get stuff done and the time I go to bed can change as well. I'm working on it. lol Hopefully I will have something down soon.

Happy New Year's Ladies! I hope you all enjoyed your weekend. I was a lil discouraged this weekend after my appointment on Thursday. AF is a day away and I am just ready for her to come and go... Not sure how much "active" trying we will be doing since doc is pretty convinced we won't be conceiving without the help of IVF and we def don't have the money for that venture right now. Aside from temping, OPKs and what not we will continue to enjoy each other (bd regularly as always) and wait on our miracle or the $ for help. I may not be as active on here for a lil while but I will stills talk and post from time to time. We prayed on our situation and we are leaving in Gods capable hands. As for the rest of you beautiful ladies, I will continue to pray for your blessing and will be checking in to see your progress. Lots of love and baby dust to all of you. XOXO Mel

Thanks for the update Melissa. I'm not giving up on the idea of you conceiving naturally! I've had friends told they would never conceive on their own, and they did! You're right, God is capable! Looking forward to seeing an update from you in the future!

 

[tcinks]

As for me...af is due today. Just waiting and waiting (and kind of tempted to run to the store for a test one kast time )

 

[MsH15]

I been doing some research this morning on IVF and insurance and what not. May try to schedule a consultation here soon, just to see what our options and if that is even a realistic option (since it's so costly) for us. *shrugs* I guess we'll have to just see.

TC - Thanx girl, I haven't completely lost hope on conceiving naturally, just MORE aware that is may not happen that way. Haven't lost faith just grasped a lil of unwanted reality.. LOL

 

[mrs.green2015]

Ms- so sorry about your appointment. I truly belive it can still happen naturally sending you tons of baby dust and keeping you in my thoughts.

Tc- I'm assuming since we're all poas addicts you've already tested?

Did they give you specific reasons why it's unlikely to happen naturally? My doctor expected me to need IVF after clomid "didn't work" for the first 2 months. But I got pregnant on the third month (albeit through clomid use not totally naturally) so it can't be ruled out.

Haha yep, I tested of course! Still no sign of af. I keep thinking She's arrived but it just turns out to be a lot of cm...which is odd for right before af...

KM - Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.. And most of all, your positivity. Thank you for the encouragement. We are going to continue bd'ing and semi-monitoring. Researching and discussing if we want to schedule a consult with IVF. My OB reviewed the surgical notes from my ectopic (almost 2 yrs ago) and since I ovulate regularly she doesn't feel it's a hormone issue or an egg/sperm issue. She felt based on my surgical notes and films that there was a lot of scarring and adhesion's (the doc who performed my surgery tried to do some clean up) but since I have not gotten pg again since with regulated cylces and ovulation, it leads her strongly believe that the issue is either that my remaining left tube is blocked as well or that there is a significant amount of scar tissue in my remaining tube that is preventing us from conceiving naturally.

MrsGreen - Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. There's power in numbers so I def appreciate it. And the encouragement def helps. Thank you so much.

Praying and hoping for BFPs for you ladies so we can celebrate soon!!! Routing for all of you!

 

[mrs.green2015]

Tc- well I'm hoping you just tested
Too early or have a late implant. With my bfp I was sure I wasn't pregnant so I kept feeling like she was coming but turned out to be tons of cm and a pregnancy! So I truly belive you're not out until she shows.

Are they doing a HSG on you to check if your tubes are open?

 

[TTC74]

I had my MMC on Dec 20th, and I log in a LOT. I have for months. Maybe even more than a year now. Here's to rainbow babies for all of us. I'm really depressed today about it for some reason. Maybe it's because it's been 16 days since my MMC and I'm still stark white on the LH stick.

If it helps my OPKs went from pretty close to positive 4 days after my miscarriage to stark white and then built up again over the last few days when I have ovulated - 17 days post miscarriage

However my hcg got to <5 two days after my miscarriage. So I ovulated 15 days after that. When did your hcg get down to less than 5?

 

[MsH15]

KM - OB referred me to a specialist about a hour away and said they would do the HSG to give a confirmed diagnosis. She was hesitant to notate "infertility" on my chart because insurances freak out and don't want to cover anything if they see that word... My OB was with the specialist group she referred me to for years and just recently brought her practice back down to my town. So next step is all of the fun testing to get my hard confirmed diagnosis and to see IF my isurance will cover any of it.

They didn't test out my hcg. So, I don't know. I just know that I bled forever.

 

[MsH15]

Fortunately I have a long standing co-worker (friend) who just went through IVF with his wife so he had lots of great info and encouraging words for me. They ended up having beautiful twin boys (who turned 1 y/o this past July) and got pg again shortly after their twins naturally with their 3rd beautiful son. So I feel encouraged and by no means have lost hope YET... Just have to keep pushing and praying.

Have you done a pregnancy test since to double check that the line is gone and you're at 0 now? My doctor told me that the bleeding would stop when I got to <5 which is exactly what happened. so depending on how long ago that was for you you might not O til 14 days later?
