Mama Bears TTC a rainbow - join us :)-- (69 ladies so far)-(29 BFP's!)

[Chrissi1981]

Chrissi - I'll admit that I have, but I don't know how much were real symptoms and how much weren't.

Lol ok hun. Well it's on my mind so much now that my dreams are also about my symptoms haha. Well back to work today with the kiddies so that'll take my mind off things !!

Have a great day xxx

Hi lovely ladies ! Do you mind if i join you too ?! I had a mmc at 10w4days on the 10th July 2014. Huge shock to know that is was potentially a blighted ovum.

Since that date and my scan to say that I had naturally passed everything. My body adjusted quickly and I got my very first period since April 4 weeks after the mc. Never thought i'd be so happy to see my AF ! Bled for 7 days (2 days more than normal). Now on cycle day 12 feeling warm (maybe because I am on antibiotics trying to fight a bad sinus infection), some dull pain on right lower abdomen. Hoping ill ovulate in 2 or 3 days. OPKs are getting slightly darker each afternoon.

Praying and hoping for a BFP this cycle.

Good luck and congratulations to all those expecting. With tears in my eyes I hope to join in on this wagon soon. Please Lord please !

So sorry for your loss and welcome . FX for your BFP!

Hi ladies, sorry I have been awol. I've been preparing for my husbands deployment. We managed to get a last go at ttc in before he left yesterday so I believe I will be due to test on the 6th September. This will be our last shot until he returns in 2015. No pressure haha.

Good luck to everyone else. Keeping my fingers crossed for you all.

Xxx

Wishing you so so much luck for this cycle

Chrissi - I think it could be any of those things, but I'm not sure which one I'd lean most towards.

I'm in a bit of unknown land right now. I'm 8dpo. Last night I was wasn't feeling all that great, and I woke up at 3:45 am really hungry (I had to eat some crackers since I felt hungry enough to feel a bit sick) and then was wide awake for about 45 min, which is typical of me in pregnancy but not normally. I took a Wondfo strip this morning and I think my eyes are just playing tricks on me, but I saw something. Right at 5 min I swore I saw something, but I think I was imagining it. At exactly 10 min I did see something, but it was still extremely faint and I know those tests can't be trusted past 5 min. I tried to get a pic, but they weren't good (seemed fainter than real life). I'm guessing it was my imagination or an indent at 5 min, and maybe an eval at 10 min? It's my first month ever testing with non-digi's, so I have a bit of a learning curve. I'll just have to wait until tomorrow to test again to see.

I really suspect it's nothing, but here's some POAS "porn" in case you want to check it out. These were taken at exactly 10 min.

*EDIT*: Okay, seeing them at that size once I uploaded them, I really think it was just my eyes playing tricks on me, I don't see anything now! But looking at the same pic on my cell phone, I do see something. But probably just an evap.

CONGRATS!

Just read reviews on amazon about it, sounds brilliant!!!!! I may have to order some! Thanks for the recommendation hun, and all natural too! X

I hope it works for you. I only use natural stuff. I use what God blessed us with natural remedies. Only take it up until you ovulate if you are trying to conceive. If not take it all month long. It may take up to 3 months to work so be patient. Also I find the tincture works better than the tablets.

My OH dont want me to try it because some of the reviews say it have them suicidal depression

 

[laurac1988]

Ok...nothing can "give you" suicidal depression. For a start, depression and feeling suicidal are two different things.

Personally, I had longer cycles in vitex and didn't ovulate at all, but I know it works great for some ladies.

 

[Pixiedust22]

I'm just wondering when you guys noticed a temperature change after getting an opk+. I had one four days ago and no temperature change yet.

 

[Chrissi1981]

Well I've never heard of that before ! X

 

[Renaendel]

I know I have been quiet here for the last month while I have been traveling, managed to keep up in my journal and a few other journals and that was it. Seems there are a few new faces, welcome!

Well, we got a surprise. Not a surprise as in we didn't try our damnedest to conceive, but a surprise in that I got pregnant when I only ovulated on the right according to the ultrasound and I don't have a right tube.

My first HCG yesterday is 10, I go in tomorrow for another draw. In this moment I am pregnant. Progesterone is 13 which sounds low but the RE said it is fine for four weeks. I am hoping that month 22 will actually stay lucky and I get to keep this kiddo. Please don't make this loss 4.

Next test is hcg tomorrow morning and then an early ultrasound at 5-6 weeks to make sure the Cherio is in my uterus and didn't try to implant in my ovary, tube or abdominal cavity.

Pixie, I get my temp change 24-48 hrs after a positive opk.

 

[laurac1988]

Congratulations Renae! I so hope this one is the stickiest baby ever xxx

Wonderful news Renae!!! I hope this is finally your rainbow!!!

Thank you, i think what ill do is wait this cycle just charting, because this is my cycle thats usually really long and messed up and im wondering if my chemical last cycle could have changed things, so I'll see how i go this cycle first x

 

[kategirl]

Congrats, Renae!

 

[Pixiedust22]

Congrats, Renae!

 

[LeahLou]

Congrats!!!

 

[confuzion]

Leah!!! I was so happy to see you posted. I've missed you! How have you been?

 

[RockNRollBaby]

Chrissi, Oh my gosh! That was so sweet of a comment. Thank you so much!

kategirl, Congratulations!! Stick bean stick! Keeping my fingers & toes crossed for you.

Renae, congratulations!!

 

[LeahLou]

Hey girl!!! I've been alright. A lot of drama went down and we had to move and pause TTC (not that we really did ). But we're settled now and I'm back into testing mode
Also found out I probably have hashimotos so that could explain a lot physically. Yay! Just gotta keep doing bloodwork to officially diagnose and treat it. But it causes TTC to be very hard so no wonder!

How have you been??

 

[Renaendel]

That explains so much Leah Lou! I know it isn't exciting to have it but it is extraordinarily exciting to be zeroing in on a diagnosis. Your autoimmune and mine share some similarities as mine can cause endocrine problems through malabsorption. You will be just amazed how much better you feel when you start to manage it. So happy you are getting your diagnosis!!

 

[LeahLou]

Thanks girl! I'm trying not to get too excited since they tried to diagnose me before and couldn't come up with anything conclusive. But this fits everything, so I'm pretty confident!

So excited for you by the way!

 

[nugget80]

Just dropping in to say am still here and still waiting! Have had a mad summer and back to work on monday at a job I love. We are not strictly trying but not protecting either so will just wait and see. Lots of plans for year ahead but nothing that wouldn't welcome a lo. Just not pinning my hopes to it and taking a much more relaxed view. Hope all you lovely ladies are well....

[Squig34]

Congratulations Renae and Kate!

Welcome, Erica

Good luck with the testing and diagnosis, Leah, I hope they're able to figure it out so you can get your rainbow.
