May BFP - roll up roll up!!

So what symptoms are we hoping for tmrw?! I'm still keeing a keen eye out for implantation bleeding, although from what I read earlier only a small % get it (this week off could make me insane with knowledge)!

So what symptoms are we hoping for tmrw?! I'm still keeing a keen eye out for implantation bleeding, although from what I read earlier only a small % get it (this week off could make me insane with knowledge)!

I'm eagle eyed for implantation bleeding. I've had it with all my pregnancies (not 100% sure for the first one but definitely DD and loss). If I don't get it by 10dpo I'll be counting myself out for sure.
My cm did have a very slight tint to it earlier and I almost got excited but I'm not sure enough to go down that path!

I'm hoping for something I didn't have last cycle. I had so many symptoms that may be a bit of a challenge but it would be nice to get something that makes me think 'hang on....'

I think honestly I'm just hoping for the 'bolt from the blue' and that 'feeling' of being pregnant. Ho hum.

A tint is good surely! If a tiny bit of blood mixes with everything else could it not just tint?
I know what you mean about wanting that feeling, I had it with both but it wasn't this early at all.

Yeah I'm thinking that the tint may have been a case of literal rose tinted specs!!

I got the 'feeling' super early like 2dpo with all of them and then discounted it until implantation bleeding made it seem possible. But every pregnancy is different right?

Who wants to step up and be the next Octomom???

So when DH and I got married, they told me that if you cut a ribbon on one of your wedding shower presents, that is supposed to mean that you'll have one baby. Well, I thought I was being funny and decided to cut 12 ribbons.

Then, at the wedding, there's this part of the Iranian wedding ceremony where they setup a bunch of stuff to symbolize certain parts of marriage. One of the symbols is eggs, and you're supposed to have one egg per each child you want to have. MIL and her friend put 12 eggs there!

So, I'm supposed to have 12 kids total. It's a fact. Since I already have two, that means I need 10 this time around. (What's the highest number of babies born at a single time?)

 

[LittleBird]

I haven't bought any yet or I know I'd have peed on them already!

I did sneakily pee on an OPK this morning - seriously, I worry about my sanity sometimes!

How do you pee in stealth mode? I need some tips so DH doesn't start to realize what I'm doing...

 

[Cornish]

Yes Hanskiz, they are def all different, don't count yourself out because something that happened before hasn't happened. You didn't mention the Rose glasses you were wearing! Haha! I'm sure it's a good sign though.
I can happily pee in stealth in the morning as oh is so focused on his breakfast and leaving for work!!! But I will not poas until sun/mon- all depends when I can walk to the shop really as not allowed to drive!!xx

10 might be a few too many for one round, how about 2 rounds of 5?!?xxx

Good evening to all!!

Congratulations to Hanskiz and the triplets and Littlebird and the 10!! Wow!! what a handful that'll be!!!

9dpo for me, is it normal to have felt so heavy and achey down there since OV?? Especially on my LHS. I am having the worse stomach aches as well. Dont know whether this is a good sign or not??

Im 'feeling it' this month although everything seems to contradict the way im feeling, temperatures all over the place and still not completely convinced with the +OPK last week!!! I just feel like i am!! AF will hit me really hard this month if she comes!!

What do you think??

yeah the receptionist is really working w/ me there and helping me get thru this finacially and helping me not working.... she said they will cover the test and so fourth like you said but just not the iui or the ivf or the ultra sounds...she said they might do the semem analyasis and they might cover it too... so im excited! I just want to do the test and everything tom....lol im so anxious... so when i wipe im having spotting today and i know its af b/c the cramps are coming. im so ready for it to be here in the morning so I can tell them my start date.lol.... never wanted af so bad! haha... that the last time ill say that! and i feel the only way to accomplish my goal is to be on the same page w/ dh and have a good attitude!! thank you for all your helpful info and support! so are you just waiting to ovulate now??? im excited for you!

I know, it's hard to stay calm when you feel like someone is going to help you get the thing you want so badly! And I understand what you're saying about being excited for AF. I can't believe that all this is happening SO QUICKLY after feeling gutted yet again by a miscarriage. It makes all the difference knowing that you have someone who's going to be keeping an eye on you and they have all sorts of tricks up their sleeve to try to prevent the same old thing from happening again. I am trying to be realistic and I know they can't guarantee a pregnancy that's going to make it to the end, but they're going to make sure the pregnancy gets the strongest start it can.

I just had my HSG today, I'll go back to the FS on Friday so she can take another look at my ovaries and uterus on ultrasound. The good news is that my tubes are ok. I wrote about it more in my journal but I'll spare you the details here.

Then I should be ovulating on Sunday or Monday! I'm kinda worried about the 2WW because I know I'm flying so high right now and I dread the return to reality if AF comes. I don't know if the HSG timing + Clomid (if it changes my ovulation date) will mess things up this time around and then I'll be on to my next cycle. But in the end, I'm glad I went through with it today and I am so happy with my FS.

Believe me, I'm excited for you too! I know all of us on here are committed to getting our BFP. We want it so bad! We just gotta keep trying and we'll get there!

so went today and absolutely love the facility! real sad though..... insurance wont cover any test or anyting at the facility... not the blood work not the semen analysis.... but they charged me 200 for new patient visit today and gave me free ultrasound..... so nice of them! they sold me on that... my ovaries are good and young she said.lol and that ovaries are good size and uterus is good and lining is thin only b/c AF arrived last night at 11 pm lol... yah for af...so had bloodwork done today and get test done on the 10th day of cycle..... so guess im starting clomid on cycle day 5! im kinda excited and kinda nervous! hoping for the best! so I go back for an ultrasound next fri. the 13th and my dh gets his sperm analysis done same day! we are excited... not so much about the cost but my dh want this so bad and we are gonna give it a try.... went to have bloodwork done today cost 500!! i was like omg! but we are gonna give it a try and see what happens. and then an ultrasound is 130 each visit.... so we are gonna give it a month or two and see what happens... f/s showed me black spots on my overies and said they were good to have them not sure what that means... she said she cant actually see the eggs b/c they are soooo small but she knows that by the us i do have lots of eggs and im only 25 and she gave me the dose of 50mg. so fingers crossed we get our BFP!! praying for you! what cycle day are you now?? and does clomid effect your ovulation days?? they said they were going to give me a shot to make me ovulate too! are you having that done???

Unfortunately I have a stash!! I'm not sure how many I have though. Perhaps I could count them every day until I'm allowed to pee on them!!

I was craving millybar earlier so went and bought an easter egg for £1.50!! Took one bite and didnt like it!! WTF??? I LOVE chocolate!!

CRC-

Well, that's good that most of the testing will be covered. IUI isn't that expensive- both times it only cost me about $250 (not counting the u/s) but relatively cheap in the scheme of things. Who wouldn't pay $250 to get preggo??

And Femara is for sure MY first choice.. I'd push for it.. but sometimes you just have to let the doc do it how they want to do it. I'm pretty sure they'll let you start right away- no reason not to unless there is some sort of red flag in your blood work but it's unlikely.

Hopefully AF comes for you at the right time to get everything started this month! And that's awesome about getting the vitamins! They can only HELP and keep the in tip top shape and healthy! Better odds! Plus~ it will give you peace of mind with having your blood work done so that's a good thing too!

Well had the appt today and everything was good! really really liked the facility and the staff.... they did the u/s and said ovaries were perfect.... perfect size and they showed black spots on them and she said that was a good thing... not real sure what they were.... she aslo so by certain colors of the ovary it showed that I did indeed have lots of eggs! so that a postive.. she said my uterus was good, thin but only b/c af arrived at 11 pm last night.... so i did my bloodwork today and will do it again on the 10th day of my cycle.... and dh has a a semen analysis on next fri and my u/s is that same friday!!! and also prescribed me clomid at 50mg... so we are gonna give it a try... she said since my cycles are regu. and according to opks and temps and the vitamins me and dh are now taking that since im 25 and in great health that it shouldnt take long! so fingers crossed it works b/c insurance wont pay anything! no testing no infertility!!! so praying this works!!! how are you feeling? when you go back to fer. specialist???

I think your symptoms are good. And I took a look at your chart and I think you're definitely still in. The next couple of days of temps should make the picture even clearer. I really hope AF stays away and you get your BFP!

Wow, I can't believe insurance won't cover the tests... I don't know if it helps at all, but my BFF said that after she was 6 weeks and the pregnancy was looking good, they told her to start going to her OBGYN. So hopefully there is a limited timeframe for going to the FS. You'll go for a month or so, get your BFP, and then move over to your OBGYN so that things are covered under insurance. It sounds like they're moving really fast for you, too! CD5 Clomid -- that's just a few days away! I remember having a thought right before I started my Clomid and scheduled my HSG that things were moving too fast. But it just lasted a second, and poof! it was gone.

Yeah, the cost is less than ideal, but I think once you and your DH see some results you'll feel more comfortable about it. I'm CD11 now, starting my guaifenesin. Man, I don't know if it was allergies or the Clomid, but I was noticing some serious head congestion today. So the guaifenesin is definitely helping with that. Mucus be gone! Clomid can affect ovulation days, and I have also read that the HSG could affect ovulation as well. It's not supposed to, but it could I guess. I think the shot they're talking about is the HCG trigger shot that Holly had to take before her IUI. My FS hasn't mentioned anything about it, so I don't think I'll be getting that. We'll see though...

I'm praying for you too! We can be newbies at the FS together. 1st cycle Clomid together. I hope that all the blood test results come back fine and the Clomid boosts your cycle and gives you the BFP you've been waiting for!
