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

[jmandrews]

JM - I did something similar - nearly a week of no bleeding and it started again - and thought for sure it was AF but my OB confirmed that there must be a tiny bit of tissue still caught. All the same, AF showed up at CD 42! A longer wait than most, I guess, but my normal cycles range between 32-38 days so not too unexpected. FX that this cramping brings about good news!!

AFM - Peed on a wondfo HCG test and SWORE I saw something, so I dipped a FRER in the same urine... No definite BFP yet (OMG, I'm so scared to get my hopes up!!) but I swear just the slightest pink haze around where that second, glorious line should be! My symptoms seem to have gone away, so I'm taking that as a good sign since that's out of the norm for me, lately... Oh please oh please oh please!!

Thank you! That really helps clear up some of my questions. I feel more relaxed this time TTC. Maybe it's the fear in me that if I feel rushed it will happen again. So just trying to be patient and have faith it will happen soon.
FX'd this is your BFP! Can't wait to hear more.

Sounds like this is it to me! This is how it starts! Eeeeek! Congrats!!!

Squig: I'm sorry hun! This month is the one. How is your mouth sore?

Thanks Leinz! I had several, most of them are gone I think; one still there but on its way out. I think it was just from my medication though.

You deserve better squig. But I know your time is coming soon.

Thanks Confuzion. I still have hope that it will happen, but as you know, the waiting is so hard! Also, DH's best friend is getting married in June. I don't want them to fall pregnant before we do! I keep putting these deadlines on myself, which I know is ridiculous, but lots of people I know who got married after me and/or are younger than me have had at least one and maybe two by now, and I'm finding it harder to cope with

Krulci! Post your sticks in Confuzion's party thread so we can all squint too! FX!

JM - glad AF is nearly here. It will be good for your body to get another clear out and hopefully have lovely conditions for a sticky BFP next month

 

[Button#]

Sorry it didn't happen for you this time Squig. Just think when you have your baby all your friends babies will be older so yours will be the youngest and therefore the cutest!

Leinz - my pregnancy guru! My B complex has been delivered today, what's the rules on when to take it? Or do I just dive straight in and take it straight away?

 

[Leinzlove]

I would dive right in using the instructions printed on the bottle.

Don't just dive in the progesterone cream when it arrives... Instead you start it on 3dpo. If you take it sooner it might delay O.

Leinz : the pregnancy guru , love it!

[Button#]

Leinz : the pregnancy guru , love it!

I think every TTC thread should have one.

 

[Leinzlove]

Very happy to help! But very sad for the circumstances.

 

[jmandrews]

I think I may be OV. I'm pretty sure where the cramping was coming from with all the EWCM I've been having and no sign of AF. DH and I BD just in case.

One month ago today we said goodbye

 

[Leinzlove]

JMandrews: Sounds like O to me! Sending lots of sticky !

 

[Button#]

Started spotting last night. On the plus side I seem to be back to how I was pre pregnancy. On the down side I don't know whether I even ovulated and I'm spotting again!

 

[Squig34]

JM - good news for o, GL! for the one month

Button - sorry your body is being rather confusing. I hope it makes up its mind soon and settles down so you know what's going on. I've always found that one of the hardest things about dealing with m/c, you suddenly no longer know what to expect from your own body as things keep changing

 

[Button#]

The spotting is pretty normal for me so it may be that I ovulated and I just didn't catch it on an OPK as I only did a couple when taking hpts.

Good luck JM

 

[Button#]

Hmm just done an OPK (pretty sure I said a few pages back I wasn't going to use them 'til next cycle!) and it's darker than previous tests so maybe I'm still gearing up to OV and that has caused my cervical abrasion to play up a bit. I'll do another OPK tomorrow and see what that says.

How are the rest of you ladies today?

 

[Renaendel]

Confuzion, can you move me to Waiting for Mr. Period? With this fibroid we won't be trying again until June or July.

 

[Leinzlove]

Button: It just has to be so confusing.

Reanae: Eeeek can't wait until you are back TTC! Ready to see your rainbow!

AFM: Very happily Sick!

 

[krulci]

Krulci! Post your sticks in Confuzion's party thread so we can all squint too! FX!

A party thread?! Count me in!! How do I find it?

One month ago today we said goodbye

Oh, JM, I'm so sorry. Loss anniversaries are the worst. How are you feeling today? Any better?

Hmm just done an OPK (pretty sure I said a few pages back I wasn't going to use them 'til next cycle!) and it's darker than previous tests so maybe I'm still gearing up to OV and that has caused my cervical abrasion to play up a bit. I'll do another OPK tomorrow and see what that says.

I'm going to err on the side of positivity and say that O has yet to come!! Still time to catch that egg!! Get it, girrrl. Edited to add: I've read countless times that a little bit of spotting during O typically points to a very, very healthy cycle/egg release/I don't know the details but I do remember it being very good news!

AFM: Very happily Sick!

Sick? BFP sick?? Sounds promising, if you ask me!

 

[Squig34]

Button, all well there thanks. DH is home today - he's not often off at the weekends so that's been nice

Krulci - here's the link! https://babyandbump.momtastic.com/p...t-enter-if-you-cant-handle-strobe-lights.html

Renae - hope the next few months fly in (actually they probably will. As we all know, the TWW makes time slow down drastically. When I had to miss a couple of cycles last year between m/c & hsg etc, those weeks just passed normally cos there was no point symptom spotting!)

Leinz - glad you're still sick!
