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

[runnergrl]

so sorry meggie

congrats MissMaternal!

 

[Starry Night]

meggie - sorry that you got a bfn this morning. I hope you're not kept in limbo land too long. The first few cycles after a m/c can really throw you for a loop in regards to feeling pregnant and AFs being late.

Miss Maternal - welcome and congrats!

Is it OK if I admit to being a teensy bit jealous of all the recent BFPs? Not that I'm not thrilled for everyone. Of course I am! I would never begrudge anyone their rainbow. I'm just so frustrated that I can't even TTC yet for another week and get scared I'll be left all alone in the TTCaL forums.

 

[runnergrl]

starry- its normal to feel this way.. I did too for several months until I got mine. Dont worry, you wont get left behind. I cant wait til its YOUR turn!

 

[mowat]

Sorry to hear about your BFN Meggie. So weird. I really hope you will get that BFP in the next few days.

I know what you mean about being jealous of the BFPs Starry. I guess when we get ours people will be jealous of us too!

I told myself I wouldn't symptom spot this 2ww, and I didn't think I was, but Google got me in trouble last night. All day yesterday my feet (toes especially) felt damp. Wet sock kind of damp. So, of course I googled that last night. First explanation was hormone changes! Really? Ugh, it's going to be a long 2 weeks!

 

[MamaTex]

Miss Maternal Welcome!

AFM I was freaking out about nothing yesterday. I went to bed and my back felt better! But I'm so mad at my stupid pregnancy test! I don't get it I should be 21 dpo I usually get AF at 14 dpo! If I don't have dpo right I'm on CD38 and i've never gone past CD35 without getting AF except when I was pregnant! It's been over 11 months since my miscarriage so I shouldn't still be messed up from that! I've felt really wet down there for about 2 weeks (tmi), had sore nips, and nauseated! Sorry about the rant.

You're not out until AF shows up!! I am sorry you didn't get the result you wanted. I wish that your body would cooperate and just get with the program already !!

ESwemba84: Ohhh!! That bloody Nyquil!! He should have gotten the non drowsy kind!!

MissMaternal:Well aren't you off to a good start in this thread!! I think the good luck is rubbing off on people here. I am hoping everyone in this thread gets their BFP sooner than later!! Spreading

HisGrace: Hello!! Ya missed me

bamagurl: Good evening!!

runnergrl: How are you coming along? Any symptoms or new ones?

Starry Night: All that patience should be rewarded. I believe it will!!! You are more patient than I could ever hope to be, that is for sure!! You will not be left behind!!

mowat: Dr. Google doesn't help with the symptom spotting, does he?. He is the most available, but stressful doctor !!

AFM: I went to a Christmas play at a local church. It was grand! A lot went into this Christmas production. The sets were elaborate as well as the costumes!! They had a fabulous choir, a symphony orchestra, aerial dancers, live animals, the works!!! I went with a friend and her daughter. It was so good to get out and connect with her again!! She just recently moved nearby so I hope to hang out more.

In baby related news, I am doing good I guess. Today has taken my mind off of numbers. One more day of waiting and I will hopefully know where I am at, but I am trying to not think about that. Today I had a thought that made me laugh. I have been so worried about carrying the baby to term that I kind of forgot that I will have to parent I let myself be a little happy today, only a little. I feel wrong about being happy, like I shouldn't, but I allowed myself to think what I would do with the baby and where I would take him or her. I didn't get too carried away though. It's hard to embrace this BFP because I am so scared it will go away, but it was nice to actually feel good about being pregnant for once. It's so wrong that I feel bad about feeling good. Hopefully I will get to a point, if I am blessed to get there that is, where I will enjoy myself.

 

[MamaTex]

And just when I start to have a little bit of hope, I start spotting in a house to myself with my husband away over the weekend. I feel frozen in place and don't really feel anything. I will have to wait and see what happens from here, but I had a feeling this pregnancy was too good to be true. I hope I am wrong. The spotting isn't completely brown. It has a reddish tint to it, though very slight. The advice I always give is to not try to worry about what will happen, so that is what I am going to try to do. It would be nice if this had a happy ending, but not holding my breath. Don't want to be disappointed...

 

[MamaTex]

If I lose this second baby, I am done. I want to get back to my life before TTC and babies and mental trauma!

 

[Sweetz33]

Mama you are in my prayers. .. if it is an consolation. ..I have been spotting at random times throughout this pregnancy and bubs is fine

 

[HisGrace]

Congrats Mamatex!!! Sorry I missed you. So happy for you. Try not to worry about the spotting. You weren't in the thread yet when I first got my bfp but I spotted and it turned into a flow. I was convinced this pregnancy was unsuccessful and had come to terms with it. Had an u/s at 7 weeks and we saw the baby and heartbeat. I continued spotting off and on (more on than off) until around 14 weeks. My dr said it still might come back. My bump buddy had the same thing. Turns out she had some old blood trapped in her cervix that had to make its way out and it happened slowly. She's 17 weeks + now and her baby is fine, too.

I pray your baby is fine too. How soon will you get to see a dr?

 

[garfie]

I am supposed to go in to see the doctor this Friday for another scan, provided my numbers come back good tomorrow.

 

[mackjess]

Tex, how are you feeling this morning? I had bleeding twice from IB. The first time it was red. The second time, about 10 days later, it was more brown. I hope you are doing good. I of course freaked out and cried all day when it happened to me, so do better than me!! I was convinced my first scan was just going to show an empty sac, but I was so wrong. Fx for you. It sucks how common bleeding is in the first tri.

 

[meggiemay93]

Miss Maternal Yay for your BFP's!

MamaTex I'm praying this is just left over IB and your little one sticks!

AFM AF! I'm just want to quit TTC!

 

[ESwemba84]

Tex: thinking about you and hope everything is ok!

No O yet. Temp was still low this morning. So I guess it's back to the bedroom for us! Lol, and I totally agree with the frustration of watching other people get BFPs, I feel left behind, or I just feel that sort of thing is just too far out of reach for me. I know it'll happen, I know all I can do is try. And be patient, which I'm absolutely terrible at. I hate waiting, and I hate not knowing when. But that's ok. I'm a little less stressed now.

Hope everyone else is having a good day!

 

[ESwemba84]

Oh, sorry about AF meggie. I know it sucks.

It's not going ok at all. Went to the bathroom, wiped, and saw dark red blood this time. I just feel like walking in front of a bus, but I don't have the energy to even do that. Think I am just going to take a very long break from everything.

 

[meggiemay93]

I'm so sorry MamaTex, but please don't go walking in front of any buses! Just remember you're needed here on earth. Your DH needs you and all the people you're helping at volunteering need you! I'm praying for you!

 

[MamaTex]

Just wanted to get on and let everyone know I am ok. I felt really bad earlier but have calmed down some. Seeing the blood in the bathroom was just a little too much. Sometimes I wonder if I have some sort of post traumatic stress disorder or something, because way too many emotions came flooding up earlier today. I still plan to try and de stress. I hope everyone has had a good weekend. Sorry if I made anyone worry.

 

[runnergrl]

I was (and still am worried) about you Tex. Its because we care that we worry. Please update us. Praying for you sweetie

 

[mowat]

Sending good thoughts your way Tex!
