J- Lynn That is the cutest and most emotional thing i have ever heard.
I really hope that little guy sticks.

Calling tomorrow to see if my results are in, hoping this cycle is the one.
Pebble it sounds like you are having an alergic reaction to something, i have never heard of that as a pregnancy symptom. When is your follow up appointment?

Good luck, Myshel! Let us know what you hear! I'm not itchy, but follow up is Wed. I'm busy trying to figure out if I've already o'ed or not. Boobs suggest yes, temps suggest no.

Pipi did you ??

J, that's so sweet!

My OH just nicknamed it Shrodinger's ovulation.

 

[pipilotta]

Lol, Schroedingers ovulation
Pb_lge, i'm too chicken to test this morning. I have to work overtime today, so if I can get some courage, I will tonight. My temps still don't look great, and i'm kind of waiting for af. Also some cramps and other signs she could be on her way.

OMG, Pipi, I think your chart looks fabulous. Can't wait for you to !!!!!

Cramps can also be a sign of a BFP!

I just have a few doubts with my temps because the general trend is downward, it's always been like that with my past charts. I just don't want to get my hopes up to high to avoid being disappointed too much.
But I will test tonight if af doesn't show. I have an old test which expires in august, and I don't want that to happen, haha.

I feel your pain!! It is so hard sometimes. I thought after having the lap everything would be good... that was in January and still nothing. Hope your surgery goes well.

Did they find anything on your lap? How was recovery, date is getting closer and starting to get nervous ...

I have three fur babies as well! Two cats Lelu and Corbin, and our newest addition our dog Calla who we adopted when she was 9 months.

The lap went ok. They found some endometriosis and scar tissue in my right tube. It was removed and the doc told me that we should be good to go. Recovery wasn't great. The first two weeks were awful. But you just need to take time to heal. Get lot's of movies (we have Netflix) you will be spending some time on the sofa. I have no scars so i'm happy about that. The out side healed really quickly. I think the heating pad and the pain killers were the only thing getting me through the first week.

We have two cat's and a dog as well. I have a brown tabby name Gemini, a siameses name mouse and our dog's a red healer named rosie. there all rescue animals.

Cramps are DEFINITELY a sign of a BFP ... I still have them. It's different a big though now, it feels like a construction crew has started building a high rise in my uterus.

I am sorry about your tough recovery. Have you had any pain on the right side before a Lap? Did you have any endo symptoms before?
I have pain in my ovaries during period (new symptom)and I have cramping urinating after O and during my period( started few years ago). My RE wants to do a Lap.
Thanks! and hope you have a great weekend!

This would have been too easy...

Pipi,
I am here with you to hold your hand, sweety. Give you a big hug!
WE started to TTC almost at the same time. I feel your pain. It is a tough journey and we have to stay strong! We are going one little step forward, it is not an ordinary treatment..very Long and we need to be patient. Emotinally draining.
I and my DH used to test with video and photos together. All this excitement is gone. Now, not anymore, I don't tell him, I test alone....I am not going to test anymore unless I have to...( for procedures, for family visits, or July3rd I have RE appointment).
Promise, to take care of yourself

 

[pbl_ge]

Sorry for the bfn, Pipi. Apologies if I made it worse by getting your hopes up.

Thank you dovkav!
I usually dont test as well, but my cycles where usually super regular at 29 to 30 days, and I told myself I might test when I get to 32 days. This cycle I didn't feel anything anyway. It is a long drag, I know I'm going to have a little cry when af arrives. My Dh is really supportive, but he sais he would also be fine without a child in his life. I'm not at that point yet.

What has helped was seeing other couples at the fertility clinic, or being in this forum. It is good to know that you are not the only one.

Pb_lge, you didn't make the situation worse. It is nice to have some hope every now and then, because without I would have thrown in the towel already. And it is nice to believe of the possibility - even for half a day. And I had to use that test anyway, before its use by date. And actually it is nice to have some Lttc ers believe in you

I had to babysit my neighbours beautiful little two year old yesterday after the test, and while I was checking on him if everything was ok while he was sleeping I realised how much I really want a child, and I hope we will one day.

Hi girls...

I gave in this morning and tested (14dpo - AF due in two days)

4th cycle clomid, cycle before my scheduled lap... I'm nervous though because if I do have endometriosis I know that rates of miscarriages are higher.... wow, I'm speechless. Stick little bean! Praying so hard right now! I haven't had a hint of a BFP for over a year!

WoW!!! Congrats Ella & JLynn!!! Hooray!!!!

 

[Ella_Hopeful]

My tests aren't getting much darker - beta was 100... I don't know if that's normal for 14dpo? I'm so worried here it's like a super-intense version if the TWW... I thought it would be FUN and EXCITING but I'm a bundle of nerves - hope you're all well. Hope you don't mind me sticking around because I don't feel I belong on the pg forums yet :S
