March/April BFP's who's going for it!! NEW LADIES COME JOIN IN!!

[Starry Night]

garfie - I'm so sorry to hear about your beautiful little boy. And I'm sorry the doctors were not more straightforward and forthcoming about the results, making you wait like that. I do think issues like that are rare though, especially if you had dh didn't have any issues with your genetic tests.

Take all the time you need to vent. Grieving is not a straight forward process. It has starts and stops and sometimes you have to start all over again.

Hi all,

I hope I can join you on this journey. Has been a long one for me once you take into account all my surgeries and so on.

Seeing my RE (last saw her post-surgeries for the "all clear" to TTC) on October 21, so we'll do natural cycles until then and hope for the best. My best guess for us is that I have a short luteal phase, or at least that's what my BFF thinks and she is an ob/gyn. I know that my tubes are both open, my lining is good thickness, etc. No real trouble getting pregnant, just staying pregnant.

I hope that Sept/Oct are lucky months for us all!!

Welp, HSG scheduled for Tuesday morning, 7 am. Bleh. I have a friend I haven't seen in a long time who works in the radiology department and she's going to try to snag my appointment, so I appreciate that. I'm still going to be bleeding by then but the nurse said it's fine. I'd rather have that than be too close to ovulation time.

Anyone who's done this before...think I'll be up for working that afternoon or should I cancel/block off my whole day?

 

[Starry Night]

Welcome, 3chords. Hope you get your rainbow soon!

eyemom - I guess it's a good thing that you were able to schedule your hsg so quickly. 7 is really early. How much earlier do you have to be there for? Good luck with everything. I hope it helps you get your rainbow right away.

 

[eyemom]

Hi 3chords, welcome. Sorry I missed you earlier. Wishing you the best!

Yes Starry 7 is WAY early for me. I have to be there ~15 min early. Thankfully my mom is going to keep my daughter the night before so I don't have to worry about her that early.

 

[eyemom]

Sorry to double post but I just remembered what I forgot to mention last night.

I was at Wal-Mart (I know, evil. My local mom's group refers to this place as "POH" ...Pit of Hell, haha). Anyway, they had 7-pack boxes of OPKs on clearance for $2! I've never used this brand so I hope it's alright, but I couldn't pass up that price. They're the kind you pee on rather than the dip sticks I usually get, so that's kinda nice.

I saw these at the store last time I was there, but at that time I was hoping against hope that I wouldn't need them. Now I'm going against hope I won't need more than 2 boxes. They expire in December anyway.

Hi 3chords and welcome.

Garfie so sorry to hear that, i dont know if its better knowing or not but one would hope if the chances of it happening were high that you would be told/advised/warned.

Eye, good luck!!

Starry, everything ok so far, you keeping our bean all safe and snug? I feel like this babe is 'Our baby' as i feel like we've all suffered on this journey with you ha ha

 

[ESwemba84]

Welcome 3chords! I also see an RE, and have issues with cycle length.

Eyemom, the I hope your HSG is inconclusive!

Kat, I hope they figure out what's going on with your cat.

AFM, since I officially reached 8 DPO, or what I think is 8 DPO, I start wasting dollar store tests. That's what they're for, right? So, I got another shadow line, but it was darker than most of the ones I've had before. I can't even tell if there is color to it, so it might be a defective cheap test. I still feel like AF will arrive any minute, so I guess time will tell. I hate waiting.

 

[ESwemba84]

Never mind, I think it was a piece of fuzz.

 

[eyemom]

I'm so sorry I laughed a little about the fuzz. I have never used anything but dollar store tests and ICs and they seem pretty reliable, though I have nothing to compare them to. Aww but I imagine you were cursing that piece of fuzz. I world have been. But it's still early you're not out yet!

 

[nevergivingup]

Hi ladies,

Welcome 3chords!! My FX'd for you, hope you get your BFP here soon!!!

Sorry Garfie about your baby boy. And to have to open that history again when you're trying again is too much. Just take it one day at a time. My heart is broken for you.

I will update on the ladies soon, in class wanted to give 3chords a warm welcome.

Ok bk to learning

 

[nevergivingup]

Ok in back for a quick minute.

Garfie: With time hope u heal, vent away that's why we are here.

Starry: Your ticker is awesome!! Thanks for sharing it! I love to see these!

Eyemom: That's what they are there for pee away!! I love opks, it gets me ready for hpt with less pressure and the positivity that I'm going to get it this time.and I love cheapies, they works for me, I tried both name brand First response and
Wal mart .88 cents and both works great. Good luck.

ES: Pee away, that's y we are called TTC women, that's part of our duty, we should be getting paid for it....I guess that comes in 9 months and everyday after that. Es did u really say fuzz, I agree with eye mom I giggled too. I never heard anyone called it fuzz. Es I got good Vibes coming, I'm so hoping its coming from you bc you're the only one in TWW right? FX'd

3chords: We were in the same boat, I have no problem getting prego the problem is keeping my baby getting s/he to stick. After 3 unsticky babies I finally got one to hang on (Thanking God) and I hope you get one or as much as u want too.

AFM: Depression is creeping in a bit. I'm trying to lose weight but my DH keeps feeding me bad food. And all I can see is I'm getting bigger and I so wanted to be bk down by my baby 6 month but I'm bk up. All I wanted to do is lose weight. And he's no help. Anywhoo, that's my little problems, have a great day ladies

 

[Starry Night]

never - my dh is bit of an enabler as well. He's always bringing home snacks (I don't buy them while grocery shopping) and telling me how good I look. Yeah right! lol It is depressing when the scale just won't go down. My weight loss efforts this summer have not been what they should have been either. We can both try to make good choices in the upcoming days.

And I think your comments to ES were accidentally addressed to me.

ES - darn that fuzz! 8dpo is still really early so I'm still hopeful!

 

[nevergivingup]

Haha Starry: Youre so right it was intended for ESwemba. My stupid phone is on auto correct and think it knows y'all now without me having to type the whole name. Your peeing on sticks days are on vacation right now unless you're one of the POAS addicts. I know I was but was too scared at times. But thanks for letting me know before I confused someone

And yes my DH loves telling me I look good when I know he just probably telling me that to shut me up. And you're right, we will but how do u plan on eating during your pregnancy? Are u going to try to eat for no weight gain?

 

[Starry Night]

I'm going to need to gain some weight. My bmi is about 1 point over the healthy limit so I'm not really THAT bad. But I am trying to eat fruit and veggies when I get hungry. But in the middle of the night last night I got really hungry and ate the last piece of lasagna. So much for responsible eating. This time around though, I seem to be hating salt. It's all I can taste so that should cut down on the snacking.

 

[ESwemba84]

Lol, yeah, I guess whoever put that thing together left a little piece of fuzz. I don't expect to see anything this soon. I'm still in, though. No AF!

 

[mowat]

Good luck testing Es---so exciting!

Anyone experience TWW pains that feel like ovary pain? Kind of hard to explain, but I feel like my left ovary hurts---pressure, somewhat burning, if that makes any sense. I guess I'd be about 8dpo today. And NO!, I'm not pregnant. Unless any of you believe in immaculate conception! I was a "good girl" this month and listened to the naturopath when she told me to wait.
