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

[Mariahs Mom]

Starry Night- Thanx. I will definitely continue to try with my DH. It's just so frustrating because I wish we didn't have to be apart at such a crucial time in my cycle! It's weird because my last cycle was 27 days when I'm normally 33! So if it's goin to be 27 days again then I should be fine but if it's the 33day, I will be cutting it close. This is only the 2nd cycle since I lost my daughter in Sept...

 

[Calitronagrl]

Thanks Starry Night! DH and I are hoping this next cycle will work out for us. Be a great way to start the year with a BFP. However, we are not getting our hopes too high due to all the complications we have had in TTC.
I think you are right that my body is still adjusting. Before I got pregnant I have learned what symptoms to ignore due to wishful thinking, which was practically everything.
The only symptom that I got that was different from before was hot flashes, which made me test and I got my bfp. I didn't experience any during my first cycle after my miscarriage. However, this cycle I had nothing but hot flashes that started about 2 weeks ago. I am still experiencing them now even after my AF has gone. My coworkers look at me like I am crazy, because they are all bundle up in jackets and I am over here fanning myself like I am in the desert in the middle of summer.

Calitrongrl- Sorry to hear abt the difficult journey you've been having trying to conceive! I was reading your post and my heart goes out to you because Endometriosis is serious and I know it raises doubts in your head. I lost my daughter in Sept (I was 6months along) due to an infection/short cervix. So just like you, the loss is still fresh!

We are both alike, as far as pregnancy symptoms, because the way I knew I was pregnant was because I got woozy in car rides & HOT FLASHES!! I'm only 28 so I knew that wasn't normal haha...so I'm hoping we both get our BFP!!!!

 

[Calitronagrl]

Mariahs Mom - Thank you! It's nice to know I am not alone in all of this. It has been nothing but a hot mess in TTC. Due to the complications I have had with my last surgery to remove the endometriosis, my new doctor does not want to operate on me if he doesn't have too. So he told me not to wait in TTC.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss I was 10 weeks when I had my D&C. It was a long and drawn out and it was horrible. I spotted for 2 weeks before the full on miscarriage happened. Unfortunately, my cervix wouldn't open on it's own and I had to do the D&C. It was heartbreaking, because the baby had a strong heartbeat at 175 bpm when it all started. The doctor thinks the placenta wasn't attached properly and the baby wasn't getting the nutrients it needed to survive.
I really do hope we get our BFPs soon! Sending tons of your way!

Calitronagrl- oh gosh I know the pain. It was so heartbreaking when I got to the hospital and I was already 5cm dilated ...I lost a part of me that day and have a big void! So I know the pain. I wish things could've been different for us!

Have your cycles resumed? Mine are usually 33 days but my last was 27 days! Who the hell knows what happened lol...how far are you in your current cycle now?

I know exactly what you mean. I am so sorry that you had to go through that. One day we will finally have our little ones, but of course never forget the ones that we have lost.
I got my first cycle 32 days after my D&C and I got my second cycle 31 days later. They use to be 28-29 days, but it is not so badly off. It is so crazy to think how your cycles can get so easily changed! I am now on CD4. I think I am ovulating around CD 16. So DH and I are getting ready for this month making plans for CD 13-17.

Thank you, I really appreciate your kind words. And yes we will never forget the one(s) we lost.

Oh it seems like we are in the same boat (as far as cycles go). I am on CD15 today, so if I got off last months cycle then I should've ovulated Saturday but if I go off my usual 32-33 day then I will ovulate Christmas Day or the day after (CD 17 or 18). But my fiancé and I will be apart starting CD17 for two weeks, so I hope that's enough to get my BFP lol

That should be more than enough time to possibly get your BFP. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed and saying a prayer for you! I still have a few weeks to go, but I am definitely counting down the days. I have still been taking my prenatals and also getting back on track of a healthier lifestyle of eating right and exercising. Which is really hard right now with the holidays and me starting a new job at a bakery, lol.

Cool, thanks for the prayers! I will pray and keep my fingers crossed for you as well!!

Like you, I have not stopped taking my prenatal pills so I hope that is helping. And I know exactly what you mean! Exercising is a constant battle for me lol. Luckily for me I lost 25lbs throughout my pregnancy, but I've gained abt 15lbs back (UGHHHH) lol. Congrats on the new job! Sounds like the perfect place if you have a sweet tooth like me lol.

Thanks Brunette. I just figure because I usually get an early BFP I should this time too.

Wow, your chart is looking great!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

Stalking If you want to follow my journal the link is in my signature

done. ;-)

 

[brunettebimbo]

FF said my chart is possibly triphasic. Temp went from 37.00 to 36.01. Tested BFN. I'm not out yet and I'm holding out hope as my BFP chart was Triphasic too!

 

[Kat S]

Good luck, Brunette!!

AFM, I got my period on 9 DPO. 9. 9??? Yeah, 9. At least it didn't show up ON Christmas. But I'm worried about having such a short cycle/lutal phase. Good thing we're looking into doing IVF with donor eggs this summer.

 

[qwk]

brunette - fingers crossed

Kat, I'm sorry it's coming so soon I haven't been on here that long, so you may have addressed this before, but have your docs talked about progesterone supplements for short luteal phase? I was also having spotting starting at 10 dpo in my cycles and I started B-50 complex and I think it helped.

AFM - got my 3rd beta count and it was 425 at 15 dpo So it went:

10 dpo - 20
12 dpo - 78
15 dpo - 425

Feeling pretty good about it right now Merry Christmas to you all, I may not get on to post much the next few days as we're traveling and etc.

 

[Kat S]

Qwk, those numbers look perfect!! Happy Christmas, right?!

My FS has told me over and over that my progesterone is just perfect. I keep asking because pretty much everyone says "how's your progesterone?" LOL! So I don't know.

 

[Unexpected212]

Kat S - Sorry AF got you.

QWK - They look amazing

Merry Christmas Everyone!!! (I probably wont' be on tommorow)

I have about the same LP......some cycles it's longer (by like 2 days), but usually it stays around 8-10. Even when I did a medicated cycle and did a trigger shot and used progesterone suppositories, it was only 8 days! I've been told my ovarian supply isn't great by the first RE, which at age 29 is disheartening. But I guess what it happening is when I release a lower quality egg, the corpus luteum is of lesser quality as well, and it produces less progesterone, or it produces it for less time. So I get excited when my cycle is longer than 24 days, because that means I probably had a good egg that cycle! Which means I still have some. I hope this helps!

 

[ESwemba84]

Also, Merry Christmas everyone!
