Losing Weight While TTC

[todmommy4568]

I think that would be helpful even just for peace of mind to ask your doctor to check it

I think I will go in the start of next cycle and ask.

The spotting was isolated to that one bathroom trip so no idea what's going on now.

But I decided not to binge eat my feelings. Instead I went to a new store and found 3 lovely tunic tops. Everything in the store is less than $15 so it was awesome. I could spend a lot of money in there and think I might use it as a reward.

Nice! Retail therapy is always good!!!

Ok so I was feeling discouraged and in a moment of weakness I stepped on the scale. I am down 2.2 lbs since Monday!!! I am super happy about that since I didn't lose anything last week!!!

 

[krissie328]

That is great Ali!!!

I have avoided the scale since Tuesday.

 

[Ali33]

Thanks! I have also lost 7.84 inches overall since 5/11. I am staying off the scale until Monday.

 

[krissie328]

You are doing great Ali!!!

Well, I got my bfp this morning!! I am in shock to be honest.

 

[Ali33]

That's awesome!!! Pics!!!!

I am so happy for you!!

 

[krissie328]

Old style frer with smu!

 

[Ali33]

I see it! Congratulations!!! I am so happy for you! Now you just made my baby fever 10x worse! lol

 

[krissie328]

Yea, funny how that happens.

I really did not think we would get pregnant without clomid.

I called dh to tell him. I could not wait until morning when we saw each other face to face again. He just keep saying I am so excited/happy.

 

[Ali33]

Aww I am sure he is. That is so awesome!!! Now if only AF will show so I can get working on mine! LOL

 

[krissie328]

Fx she arrives soon. Didn't you mentioned you were starting npc?

 

[Ali33]

NPC? Is that progesterone cream? If so, yes, I started that on Monday. Provera takes up to 2 weeks so I am hoping this also works the same way.

 

[krissie328]

Yes, progesterone cream.

I have taken it for 10 days in the past (twice a day) and then stop. Af usually arrives 3-5 days later.

I am currently using it now. I will keep it up until my doctor puts me on a prescription (which I did not need with ds) or 12 weeks.

 

[Ali33]

I am doing it now twice a day. Should I stop after 10 days? I didn't know that. I thought I needed to use it until AF arrived?

 

[krissie328]

I have always stopped because I was told the reason af arrives is the drop in progesterone. I believe on provera I took it 10 days and then stopped as well.

 

[Ali33]

Ok I will try that then. You take it again when you ovulate, right?

 

[krissie328]

Yes, I temp so I always wait until I get my cross hairs at 3 dpo and start taking it then.

 

[Ali33]

Ok I will start doing that. I think I have to wait for AF before I ovulate though. Took an OPK yesterday just to check and the test line was pretty light.
