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

[brunettebimbo]

Yay so happy for you

 

[sailorsgirl]

Hey ladies,

After spending time away from certain pressures and being able to actually have time to think about what I want, I have decided to wait a little longer to try for a baby. I need more time to grieve and I want to enjoy my two babies before we add more to the mix.

Plus I'd like a bigger age gap now. We've missed the small gap we were hoping for so have decided to wait until Cohen is a little older.

So I will be making a doctors appointment asap to go onto the pill.

I will be keeping my fingers firmly crossed for you lovely ladies though.

Great news, Unexpected!

Fertile CM has dried up, so I'm in the 2 week struggle......I mean wait. I usually start testing after one, though. So tentative test day is next Friday!

Unexpected212 - Congrats on the good news!

Starry Night - That stinks you have to wait on finding out, but glad everything is going great.

ESwemba84 - I am right there with you. I am also in the 2 week wait. I have good feelings about it all, but not getting my hopes up. This part of the month always go the slowest for me, lol. Got my fingers crossed for you!

Mariahsmom - Hope things are still going good for you. Are you still cramping? And how far along are you in your 2 week wait? Keep me posted!

 

[Mariahs Mom]

Hi everyone!

Had my early scan. I should be roughly 6 weeks 2 or 3 days today but I was measuring 5weeks 6 days so 4 days behind. She wasn't concerned at all and said sac sized matched baby size and there was a strong heartbeat I could see flickering on the screen at 121bpm

I go back in 2 weeks am so excited and nervous to go back

Not too worried about measuring 3/4 days behind as I measured way behind at first with my son then he caught up. Also she said a week either side is pretty normal at this stage.

She said it all looked perfect to her.

Also I was very happy she did it abdominally I was sure I'd need a transvaginal, but nope! baby was easy to find

I'm soooooo happy for you!!!! Seeing the heartbeat is a beautiful thing....enjoy your pregnancy. We don't know what the future holds, so we need to soak in these moments and appreciate them...You are truly blessed lady

So far the cramping was just the other day! I am 7 dAys in my 2 week wait today. I hope that was a good sign. The day I O I had sooooooooooo much of that Fertile CM and me and my fiancé BD everyday leading up to my O day; even early that morning...TMI LOL...but I'm hoping that we sealed the deal lol...

How is your 2 week wait going?

How is your 2 week wait going?

I got my fingers crossed for you! At least you are halfway through the dreadful 2ww. I just barely started. Not sure on what day exactly since I stopped doing the opks and temping. Today is cd16 for me and my cycles have been 31 days these last two months since my m/c. I already experienced the ovulation cramps earlier this week and my fertile cm has dried up today. so I am guessing today is day one for me, lol. DH and I didn't BD every day, but we did on Sun, Mon, and Wed of this week so I am hoping that will be enough. I just had to get sick this week! Oh well, if it didn't work out then we'll just try again next month.

 

[Tricia173]

Es- good luck, that two week wait sucks! Hopefully it will be worth it!

Left & starry - how are things going?

Good luck to all you other ladies!

Afm- made it to 32 weeks, feeling very blessed! Did find out last week I have gestational diabetes and it sucks to say the least! I check my sugar 4-5 times a day, and finding meals to make that work with it is insanely hard! Though it is not ideal...I will do anything to protect this little boy!

 

[qwk]

fantastic news unexpected!! very happy for you! I have my ultrasound on Thursday, should be 6 weeks 4 days. Hoping to see a heartbeat too

 

[Starry Night]

unexpected - congrats on the scan. having such a strong heart beat at this stage is such a super good sign!

qwk - good luck with your scan on Thursday!!

trisha - sorry about the gestational diabetes. Have you been getting much guidance on the sort of diet you should be having? I'm not sure I would even know where to begin.

sailorsgirl - I'm glad you reached a decision that gives you peace. TTC right away after a loss is not for everyone. Sometimes a break is necessary and once you are ready you have new energy and joy in the process. All the best!

Good luck to all of the ladies in the TWW!! I hope to be seeing more bfps in the near future!

I met with a diabetes educator and all I really got from her was what I shouldn't eat and how to poke myself.... I would be lying if I said I didnt cry multiple times this week, it is just difficult when you don't know where to start or when no one points you in the right direction for supplies such as test strips etc. at this point I think I have the hard stuff figured out but meals are terrible!

I have the same attitude you have. If not this month then we'll try again next month. But hopefully that was enough to catch the egg...with my 33 day cycle, I O around CD 17 or 18...well I think so at least. My last pregnancy I went in for an u/s when I was a week late and the doctor said I was only 4weeks.

Quick question to anyone: if they confirmed I was 4 weeks pregnant, do I count back 4 weeks to get my O day or is that my implantation day???

 

[eyemom]

Four weeks pg is four weeks from the first day of your last period. So you're about two weeks pg before you actually get pg.

 

[eyemom]

ES, good luck in your TWW!

Unexpected, glad you got some good news!

Calitrona, hope that was implantation cramping! Sounds like you had your bases covered.

Tricia, sorry about the GD but I think once you learn some tricks it won't be so overwhelming and maybe you'll even feel better. I have a friend who had it with her recent pregnancy. I'll try to think to ask her what helped her.

sailorsgirl, glad you found some peace with your decision. Wishing you the best now and in the future when you're ready to consider again.

AFM, I'm 12 dpo and I was going to test today (despite all the spotting) but I had a massive temp dip today (just barely above the cover line; haven't recorded it yet), so decided to wait. We'll see what my temp does tomorrow. I wasn't expecting a temp dip YET as my LP is usually 13 days, but this whole cycle has been totally weird so who knows. I'm still spotting every day, some days barely, other days a fair bit (like today), but always bright red. I just hope I can tell which day is CD1 because I'm supposed to start the Clomid on CD5.

 

[Mariahs Mom]

Four weeks pg is four weeks from the first day of your last period. So you're about two weeks pg before you actually get pg.

Yea that's what I thought but by that time I was almost 6weeks since my last period. But my doc said but judging by the u/s I was measuring 4weeks, the latest. So I'm assuming that means the egg implanted in my uterus 4 weeks prior? Which means I O'd the week prior?? Lol I'm so confused sorry!!

This cycle is weird but hopefully it's a good sign!!

Hoping for a good temperature for you tomorrow Eye. Some of my BFP cycles I've had crazy all over temps and super low too.

 

[eyemom]

Hmm, I don't know Mariah, maybe the doc meant 4 weeks gestational age? It can be so confusing!

Yeah mowat even before my first ever BFP with DD, I had a low temp on 11 dpo before I tested on 12 dpo (since my temp spiked back up that day). But with all the bleeding, I just don't feel all that positive about it???

Plus I had tender side boobs yesterday and my bra felt tight. And that's totally gone today.

Thanks for all the well wishes though everyone. I'll take all the PMA I can get because sometimes I'm bad at having a PMA myself!

 

[garfie]

Eye - What are your temps doing now?

Es - God luck in your TWW

Tricia - Sorry about your GD - have they given you any advice?

Sailor - It is so much easier when you come to peace after making a decision - I'm not quite ready to give up ttc yet and that's what hurt the most that me and DH were no longer on the same page a while back

Qwk - Good luck at your scan

AFM - I seem to be back in the TWW - anywhere from 3-7DPO (depending whether I put in the temps I missed out at Christmas - due to late nights and a glass of vino) So I guess I should begin POAS on Friday - just in case you know

[Kat S]

Good luck Eyemom and Garfie on your cycles! Waves to Mowat!

I think I'm 2 dpo today. Caught a nasty cold (or maybe it's a sinus infection?) and I'm hacking my lungs out this morning. Joy.
