[carlywarly]

Sooo sorry Hope Here's to a new cycle and hopefully a FX tightly for you xx

 

[Shannon30]

Well im out this month ladies the has just arrived three days early

AWWW CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope I am sorry. This ttc game sucks sometimes. The one thing I did different this monthwas use pre-seed on my fertile days. I have pretty good cm, but I thought why not add some more...lol Not sure if this is why I got a BFP...but it's the only thing I did different. Good luck sweetie....You will get your BFP!!!!!
Take care

Thanks ladies! That's why I love this group, I can always count on you for support and advice.

I ended up passing everything naturally this morning. It was extremely painful. I am just resting now to make sure nothing bad happens like hemorrhaging. I just have light bleeding like a normal period. I will still go to my OB tomorrow for a follow up and make sure that everything was passed and no tissue remains.

I am not sure when we will start trying again. We will at least wait one cycle to make sure everything is back to normal. Thank you so much for all your concern and support! You ladies are awesome!

Banner I am soooo sorry Definity take time to get back to normal and feel good. I had a mc and then got pregnant the 2nd cycle after it. I also wanted to have my body have one complete narural cycle. I know it will happen and i will be reading about your BFP SOON!! take care.

Hope - sorry to hear that hun

I had another BFN at 12 dpo, but also have been super sick since Saturday. There goes my temping (Temp went through the roof this morning, but pretty sure this was because I actually had a fever). Expecting AF in the next 1-3 days...but right now I don't even care that much since I feel so sick.

Question ladies - do you just always assume that you could be pregnant when it comes to deciding on what medications to take/of to take any? I was going to take my usual cold meds, but then realized that if I was actually pregnant (and I guess I can't be 100% sure until AF shows) I should not be taking any of these since they are not 100% safe for first trimester. So now I am suffering through this stupid cold because there is almost nothing a pregnant woman is supposed to take. Any thoughts?

I think you are doing the right thing not taking anything. Paracetamol is OK if you need them, right? I wouldn't take anything...just in case (but I am also a worry wart) haha xx Good luck!! Hope you get a

AuCa I know your temps are off because you're ill but that is a lovely dip in your chart

Yeah paracetamol is fine to take if pregnant. Surely there must be other cold meds out there that are safe! Or perhaps try things like hot water and towel over your head to steam it out...drink plenty of water too. Maybe a herbal tea - lemon and ginger mixed in with a spoonful of honey. Hope you feel better soon, and it's followed up with a lovely BFP x

 

[AuCa]

Thanks carlywarly and Smiler82! I've been taking paracetamol, drinking tea and using saline nasal spray like crazy in the past few days Unfortunately this stupid sickness doesn't seem to go away So I'll probably have to start a course of antibiotics, as I can't really take many more sick days from work.

And AF showed up today as well
So not much good news for me. Not sure if I should be upset about it or happy that I can take some stronger meds now (paracetamol has never worked very well for me).

Anyway, it is what it is - off to another cycle!

Sorry Hope, Fx for next cycle. We used preseed this cycle and also bd from my initial opk surge until my temp spike if that helps any. We know it worked

Sorry to hear your sick, one good thing of AF is that you can take all the meds you need. Feel better soon.

 

[bbanner19]

No cramping today!! Yay! I had one last episode last night where I thought either someone was slicing me open and ripping out my uterus or I was dying...I'm pretty sure one of those was happening. However, it is all over now...I think. I have been warned that once I have passed everything then my hormones will drop drastically and I won't have control over my emotions. Hopefully that holds off until after work tomorrow and I can have the rest of the week to worry about that! Looking forward to going away to my parents for the holiday and getting out of here! Hope everyone has a safe and fun holiday for those that celebrate Thanksgiving!!

Sorry for any AFs and BFNs! I will soon be joining you for hopes of a BFP!!

Hope you get feeling better AuCA!!

Oh no Really sorry to hear that AuCa I was very hopeful for you! I know it's not much consolation at all but at least you can give your bug a good kicking with some antibiotics now x

Oh bbanner that sounds horrid I felt the same with my last mc, but once it was over it was over, all the pain etc practically vanished within an hour or two, it was so weird. I hope it is all over now for you, it's horrible to be in so much pain. So you couldn't take any time off work before next week? That's a shame, hope you were ok going back. I know I found it hard after mine. But the trip away with your family sounds like just what you need, I hope you have a relaxing time x

Bbanner I am so sorry I hope you start feeling better soon and your emotions are ok. After my mc I was kinda all over the place with emotions but could handle them. I hope you recover quickly and have a nice holiday with your family...you deserve that..take care..talk soon.

[carlywarly]

Sorry you got AF Auca xx FX this is the cycle for you!! xx

 

[AuCa]

Thanks ladies!
I would have been very surprised if I would've gotten a BFP so early, as we've only been actively TTC for 2 cycles and are both beyond the 30yr mark. So I am ok with it so far, we'll see how long I can keep my patience
Started taking antibiotics yesterday and feel slightly better today.

Bbanner - so sorry about your pain. I hope there is some meds you can take to alleviate it.

 

[bbanner19]

Hey Lovely Ladies!!

I hope all is well!! Any more BFPs??

My doctor called and said that on Nov. 16th in the ER my hCG level was at 20,000 and then on Nov. 19th at his office it was down to 5,600. I will go in on Tuesday the 27th to do another test. Really hoping it is down to zero by then. I think DH and I are ready to just move on and see what happens. NTNP at first and then we will probably actively try after I have AF...if I have AF! I know I will still be hoping for a BFP during that TWW! For now I will just enjoy my time with the hubby!

 

[Shannon30]

Good luck bbanner!!! Thinking of you!!! I actually got pregnant right after my mc...same thing..ntnp and it happened..GOOD LUCK!!!

 

[AuCa]

Good to hear that you are doing ok bbanner! Sounds like a good plan

I'm almost back to normal now, but still on last day of AF And since I won't ovulate until CD20 or so, still a long wait ahead....
How is everybody else??

 

[Smiler82]

bbanner you sound so positive, you are very strong They do say you are more fertile the 3 months after a mc so you never know. It's really not an easy thing to go through at all so I'm sure you still feel emotional about it, but sounds like you have a very level head x

AuCa I have such a bad memory and chat to far too many people...you're not on any meds or anything are you? I keep confusing ppl on here with ppl on a clomid thread I'm on!! Is CD20 pretty normal for you?

I am CD14 and a bit disappointed that my lines aren't getting darker on the OPKs. Last cycle I had an almost positive on CD14 followed by a + on CD15. Rationally I know it's totally normal to not ovulate on the same day each cycle but I'm just getting nervous that I'm going to be one of those ppl for whom clomid works on some cycles but not others

No worries , I keep forgetting the details about everybody as well...

No, I' not on any meds, and ya, CD20 or so is normal for me. My cycles are between 30 and 35 days with a 12 day LP, so I ovulate anywhere between CD 18 and CD23, typically around CD20.
I actually had a chat with my mom on the weekend and asked her out of curiosity if she remembered how her cycles used to be, and she told me that she also always had slightly longer cycles (around 5 weeks total). But I also know that it took her almost 2 years to conceive #1. So I've always been kind of worried that I might have issues conceiving easily. On the other side I know that she's always had thyroid issues which I don't and I think that might have caused her problems.

Ugh, just don't know what to think. My plan is to keep trying for at least another few months and if we don't get a BFP get ourselves checked out by latest mid next year (as there is also a slight suspicion that there might be a male factor). I'll be 33 in December, so not much time to waste
