Lovely Ladies TTC

[carlywarly]

Hello...sorry I have MIA. I acatually have bad news. I had a mc early last week. I was very sick , went in because of very bad cramps and no bleeding at that point and did an us and baby stopped growing 6wks 6 days. I am doing fine now and have to realize when this happens something "wasn't RIGHT" I was VERY sad. But I am doing better now, especially since I am not sick anymore and I do have SOO much to be thankful for...7 beautiful children. I am so happy for all the BFP's and hope to join you all soon. Taking a break and enjoying what I have...Will try again in Feb/March possibily!! Again..I am doing good and will keep checking in on progress and I'll keep posting...hoping everyone has Happy Holidays..It will be crazy here with kids 10, 10, 7,6,5,3,1...BUT IT"S FUN!!!! talk soon. Thanks for all the constant support..you woman are GREAT!!!!

Awh Shannon I am so so sorry hunny!! No words can make you feel any better, but you obviously have a great mental attitude. Good luck to you, wherever you go from here and I wish you all the best xx

Thanx hun, to be honest i dont know if my doctors do it im gonna wait a bit longer before i go, gonna ask them though i would like it done

I had my US & first prenatal appointment today. The US was very quick, just to make sure the baby was ok. He/she is, the HB is 168 and measuring right on track again. I would post the pic but there's nothing to see except a big white blob. Still haven't told anyone except 2 close girlfriends, I'm waiting until my 2nd trimester.

Glad to see everyone is doing well. Looking forward to the holiday! Cheers

That's great news PurpleIve, so pleased the scan went well

 

[AuCa]

Great to hear PurpleIvy! Those are great holiday news

As usual I'm super stressed at work right before the holidays (because obviously everything needs to be done before). Took a test today at 9dpo and BFN. Not having any symptoms either, so I'm not very hopeful again (I had a temp dip at 8dpo but that was caused by changing time zones; so I think my BBT was actually higher).

 

[Smiler82]

AuCa I did not have a dip on my chart this cycle and I didn't have any symptoms either. I still don't, really, just a horrid taste in my mouth and thirst that has only developed in the last few days. I never want to get ppl's hopes up but still, I would not count yourself out just yet x

 

[PurpleIvy44]

Thanks ladies. I just wanted to say to not worry if you don't have any symptoms. I didn't get them to 6.5 weeks and they have been very mild. Some days the nausea is bad but I've had a lot more good than bad. I have times where it feels like I'm starving and it causes me to feel sick and nothing sounds good to eat. My bb have not really changed, I haven't gained any weight expect from bloat and my worst symptom is acne, which has still not calmed down, damn it. I do burp more than normal but that's just to help calm my stomach and my hubby hates it. It's not lady like, hahaha.

AF came flying in full force today. We weren't preventing anything this past month, and we were both a little bummed. However, I am glad that my body has gotten right back to normal. Today marks 30 days since the miscarriage which is the exact length of my cycles before I got pregnant. We are excited to start trying again! CD1, anyone else in the same boat??

 

[AuCa]

I still got 3 days to go until my CD1 (have a 12-day LP)...
Glad to hear that you are feeling good about TTC again

 

[minuet]

yay for you pregnant ladies with positive ultrasounds and symptoms!

glad you are all doing well.

Just bought supplies on Amazon! I got 40 OPKs and 10 HPTs. I also got 3 pack of Conceive Plus. Is it ovulation time yet?!?!?!

Hope all you ladies are doing great and enjoying the holiday season!

Nice!
I had ordered a whole bunch of OPKs as well lately, and still have around 30 HPT test strips lying around somewhere (another BFN today)

Do you ladies have any specific plans for the holidays?

 

[MinnieMcMoose]

Hello ladies, thought I'd check in to say hello, coz I've been off here for a month or so I think.

Wow, lots of you have got bfp's! Congratulations to you all! Actually, how many of us left on here are still trying?

I've had a month off trying, but will be back on it (no pun intended) this month.

 

[AuCa]

Actually, how many of us left on here are still trying?

I was actually wondering the same.....Glad to hear from you, as I started feeling somewhat alone among all the ladies who already got their BFPs (I am supper happy for all of you, don't get me wrong, just saying...you know what I mean..).

Anyway, I'm still trying, and bbanner19 is TTC again. And minuet is still here as well I'm wondering how AngelNoelle is doing, haven't heard from her in a long time....

So I'm 11dpo today and got another BFN in the morning. And for the first time since TTC (it hasn't been forever, that's probably why...) I actually feel quite depressed about it . I know I'm not 100% out yet, but AF is due in 2 days, so I'm thinking if I was pregnant I should have a BFP by now (and my temps haven't been rising). Stupid TTC .

 

[AuCa]

So, more frustrating news to report - DH just tried out this Micra home sperm test (it's a microscope to check sperm count, motility etc) - and we saw - nothing at all
So now I'm really starting to think that there is a problem (I think I had said earlier that I had a suspicion already). Anyway, I ordered some of those test strips for count (just to see if he really doesn't have any or if we were just too dumb to figure out the kit). And we'll see if we can get an SA done next year.

 

[bbanner19]

I'm still here TTC again! Only on CD3 right now.

I'm so sorry AuCa. I hope things look better in the other tests. Keep us updated!

Hi .. I am here too .. Still TTC .. Planning for IUI this month as DH's SA was worse than last time .. High viscosity and low motility .. We are both well into our 30s so don't want to wait too much longer .. It's CD12 for me and I have just 1 follicle 16x16. .. Am going to trigger on CD13 night .. On CD15 scan planned .. If I have ovulated by then it wud be IUI for me ..
But I don't know why I am not very hopeful this month .. Previously my follicles grew to 2.3cm to 2.9 cm .. This time in comparison it's so small

I am happy for all the girls with BFPs .. Baby dust to all who are still TTC like me ..

Babydust to you as well Nadhoo!
Sorry to hear about your DH's SA. The viscosity was st I noticed as well at home - DH's didn't seem to liquify properly, so I'm pretty sure there is some sort of problem there.

Anyway, keep us updated!

I had to change my account user name and everything I couldnt' remember my password and i couldn't get anything sent to my email so I'm starting over! I was apart of this group before and LOVED the amount of support here.

I'm back to TTC after a MMC @ 10 weeks (found out at 12). Still recovering from my D&C but looking forward to being able to TTC once i am done at my follow up appointment on Jan 8th! (Hopefully as long as the DR says we're good to go!). Trying to keep a positive attitude!! Still break down and cry every now and then but its getting better, just taking things day by day.
