Good luck fairydust!

Jm, once again, great news!!!

Squig, how are you doing?

Afm - we had our first bd for this cycle last night. I am at cd7. The baby dance will start in a few days. Eeekkkk!!!!! Going with smep and will officially start from cd10, but will bd tomorrow as well.
 
Squig, how are you doing?

Squig - Did AF ever arrive? I hope not!! [-o&lt

Nope, no sign of AF yet, and no spotting, even - I've spotted in all my other pregnancies. AF was due Sunday or possibly Monday (Sunday being most likely) so now 5 days late. No idea what's going on - I've been getting lots of CM still, and today I've had lots, like fertile EWCM, don't know what that's about! And feeling a bit sick - we stayed in hotel last night for our anniversary and I ordered bacon and french toast with maple syrup this morning for breakfast, which I love, but the smell of the bacon turned me and the texture of the toast nearly made me throw up, so I couldn't eat it! Not like me! Monday and Tuesday are holidays with us, so if no sign of AF by Wednesday, I'll ring my doc to get referred to the early pregnancy unit for a scan. But that's still a good few days away! Thanks for asking :)

When is your scan, Krulci? Exciting!

Ooh JM that's exciting, FX for you that it's implantation and a BFP is on its way!

Good luck with SMEP Angel!
 
Ooo, squig!! I hope it's a sticky healthy bean for you!!!

Thank you. We wanted to dtd, but dd walked in so we had to stop with that idea..................................
 
I don't know what I'm supposed to post here, so I'm just going to tell you all my story, which I hope is okay because I haven't really told it at all, and I'm hoping to find some help, comfort and kinship here.--
Anyway I'm Bre, I'm 24, my boyfriend and I have been TTC for about six months, and just when I was starting to get nervous, stop tracking and freaking, just like they always say, my BFP came out of nowhere, on the seventh of last March. I didn't, couldn't even believe it. I was afraid if I started to believe it I'd wake up from the dream, or something. I went out and bought more tests and took a total of four, three equate and finally a digital clear blue easy. Finally, I grasped it and of course was thrilled, and my poor wonderful boyfriend was thrilled as well. We made the mistake of not waiting to tell people. We only meant to tell our closest friends and immediate, immediate family members, but those immediate family members thought it prudent to share with ALL of our family members. :growlmad: So for a while everything was alright, but I was EXTREMELY stressed at work, had been covering shifts that weren't my own for way too long, busting my butt for no recognition or incentive whatsoever, only to be asked for more, more, more. I was fighting with my bosses to get me onto my normal shift, as I was working wayyy too many hours and getting nowhere near enough rest. There was a lot going on at that time, but I was trying my best to do what was best for me and what me and my love called our little 'sesame seed' (as that was the stage it was at the first time I decided to look up a timeline and find out) but I was being stretched and pulled too far. At what we think was 5w6d I got into a major argument with a new boss at work, where he was screaming at me, at six in the morning, IN FRONT of my developmentally delayed client (who I'm sorry but they might as well be my children, my mother, my brother, don't make hostility in front of them!!!) after over 48 hours with no sleep, obviously I was hormonal, and wouldn't let me step away to gather myself, even though I was a crying mess. That night when I went home, I called the higher ups and called into work that night because after that morning I knew I was stretched to the max and needed to give myself a break. That same night, I started spotting. It wasn't too dark, or too think, and was only when I wiped, but I knew something was wrong, so I went to the ER, HCG Levels were 1400 and the ER told me that was fine and to go home and try to relax. Well I did just that, went home and layed around in bed. The next morning, although bleeding a little more heavily, I went in for a scheduled ultrasound at a care clinic. The ultrasound showed the sac, and the nurses said that everything looked okay, she couldn't find a heartbeat, though. She told me it was fine, my boyfriend was saying I was fine, but my body and my heart told me that it was NOT fine. So later after the ultrasound, I start bleeding much heavier, feeling it gush. I go back into the ER to be given the worse, most unprofessional and rude medical care I have ever, ever received, and of course they confirmed that I was miscarrying. I started spotting on the 18th of last month, and I passed my little 'sesame seed' Angel baby, on the 27th, the bleeding stopped the next day. Now the doctor's at the ER did tell me that I should give myself time to heal emotionally, before trying again, but that medically I don't have to wait as long as I passed everything naturally, and my body went back to natural. I definitely had the fear that my boyfriend (though he was completely supportive and amazing, heartbroken as he was he stepped up and dealt with everything!<3) was going to resent me somehow (like I naturally can't help but doing myself) for what had happened, so even during the miscarriage we were dtd, I was very afraid and thought somehow that if we were constantly dtd he couldn't hate me. Alot of other things were going on as well, I lost someone I thought was a friend because I wasn't there for her, during my miscarriage, and I also lost my job. And the worst part is the only reason I lost my job was because of said 'friend', as she was the one keeping in contact with the higher-ups for me, as I was not touching my phone, barely able to think, let alone speak to people. So I feel like I've been fighting a losing battle lately, everything has been insane. I have always believed that everything happens for a reason, and while I believe there is one, a lesson in all this, I can't see one right now. Anyway, things are rough and my boyfriend and I are both still very fragile, very broken. We're working through our issues and decided not to wait until my first normal cycle, and have been trying since the bleeding stop. I got my BFN about three days after the bleeding stopped( April 1st, haha..funny right?! :nope: ) and then I got a postive opk on April the 13th, about five days before I would O in my regular cylce, so now I'm in a very nerve-racking (which one isn't, though, right?!) 2ww. I'm confused though because I felt a little cramping earlier this evening, and my breasts are sore, which is not usually a symptom of ovulation for me, and if I did just O, wouldn't it be two weeks before my period, or could it be the MC making it different? Haha, wow I just realized just HOWWW long this post is, sorry ladies and I hope you don't mind me barging in, but I would love to connect with some of you who can understand where I've been and where I'm at! Thanks so much for even taking a minute (or hour or two haha) out of your day to read this, and I promise I'm not always this much of a babbler, but apparently this needed OUT! Haha, again, thank you and I hope to speak with any and all of you in this and any group here. Good Luck and Baby Dust to all, :hugs:<3 Bre.
 
Squig: YAY! I'm telling AF so stay away! Its good to be sick! <3

Angelbaby: You'll have the DD thing. You are going to need a lock. :)

BrokenBee: I'm so sorry for your loss. :hugs: I'm sorry for how insensitive and all that you were treated. You definitely sound like you had normal O afterwards. Those cramps sound promising and like you are about to see your BFP! It has happened so soon for many. Sending you lots of :dust:!
 
Welcome bre and sorry for your loss. I hope you get your rainbow baby soon.

Angel you made me lol about your dd. Thank god c is still in a cot!

Afm, a lot of you will already have seen this on the testing thread but I got my :bfp:!! V cautious about it of course but fx...
 
BrokenBree I am sorry for your loss and everything else that happened as well. I lost a friend due to my miscarriage as well earlier this year. It sucks! :(

It does sound like you are ovulating. I get ov cramps. Xx

Leinz, I can't even close a door without DD standing on the other side crying, so that is not an option. We will need to wait until she is taking a nap. Lol I miss the days I could just put her in her cot with some toys or in the stroller with a book............ Haha
 
Welcome brokenbree I am so sorry you had to be surrounded by people like that :(
I will never understand. Unfortunately there are idiots in this world. I am so glad things are moving along quickly for you and your BF though. Keeping my FX'd for you. I lost my little bean at 10 weeks 5 days on March 11 but the baby stopped developing at 5 weeks. :( I found out one week prior during my ultrasound. It was the most painful and emotionally draining experiences I've ever been through. Now I am trying to figure out what my body is doing.
 
Conina, I think I missed that - congratulations!

Welcome, Brokenbree, so sorry to hear of your loss and how badly you've been treated by your 'friend' and your work. It will take you and your boyfriend a little while to grieve and heal, don't be surprised about that. A M/C can mess up your cycles a bit, or not, and can also change the symptoms that you used to experience normally for your period and ovulation. That's been my experience anyway, and it's frustrating not to know what's going on in your body. GL to you for next time (and maybe even this time!).
 
Hi Bre, so sorry for your loss, hope you get your BFP soon.

Congrats Conina!
 
Conina: CONGRATULATIONS!!! Eeeeek! :) x

Angelbaby: I know right... I have that here too. But, Chloe doesn't take naps anymore. I was having to have DH wake me up when he gets home at 5am for baby dancing.
 
Yay conina! That is great news! Your rainbow

Squig, I hope this is I. I bet when you do test your line will be sooo dark. Or I guess bloods at the hospital will be very high.

Welcome to our group Bree. This is a great set of ladies with excellent support.
 
Conina - congrats!!!!! What's your EDD?

Squig - 5 days late what?! You are so preggers!! Will you test again?

Brokenbree - so sorry for all you have been through. You will fit right in here :hugs:
