MAY we all be blessed with baby! May 2013 and beyond (BFFs Seeking BFPs)

[mummy2o]

ClandestineTX: If I use any temp on FF under 34C they say its to low. I'm guessing I'm just really odd. Today it was a bit higher at 35.1

Hopeful2014: I'm not really sure when I o. My guess was yesterday, but I haven't had any of my usual o symptoms. I guess my body is just being weird as normal.

Thank you so much Hopeful2014 for asking me to join this thread.

I am just getting used to all the terminology used on this website and how the website works as I only joined yesterday.

I am 28 years old and have been married nearly a year.

I already feel better knowing that there are so many other women going through the same stresses and strains of TTC.

We started TTC in February 2013 and I think I always took it for granted that it would be easy to get pregnant. I have extremely irregular cycles which have ranged from 35 - 51 days this year alone. I am currently on day 41 of this cycle. I have tested once on Monday 17th June 2013 and received a big fat negative.

I'm still remaining optimistic as I do not have my usual signs for my period yet. I usually get a lump appear in my right breast a week before I am due but so far it has not appeared yet.

I am just trying to believe that I will get pregnant when it's meant to be.

It is so difficult though as I am extremely impatient and I am so desperate to be a mummy.

I do not chart my temps nor do I use OPKs as I have an extremely obsessive personality and I think it may do me more harm than good. When we first started in Feb, we did use a OPK and it showed my LH surge on day 22, needless to say we did not get pregnant and my doctor told me that she believes they are unreliable at showing when a woman ovulates. She advised us to have sex every 3 days as I have an unreliable cycle.

Anyway, I apologise for the rambling, I just wanted to update you all on my situation.

Welcome Lala!! This is a very supportive group. I've learned so much from the other ladies here already.

Congrats on the new BFPs and fingers crossed for those hopeful BFPs.

AFM, DH is abroad for work (chatting with him on Skype now) and I'm waiting for AF to stay away. Based on last cycle, I'm due on the 25th, but by average, on 29th or 30th. Will hopefully go for bloodwork to confirm I ovulated on the 25th and hold out for the 30th to test. Might get them to do a pregnancy blood test while I'm there . Love the flexibility of being able to order my own tests here!!!

@Lala8 Welcome to the group! I'm very glad you decided to join us. I really do think talking to the ladies in this thread will help. I've added you to the TBA section on the front until/unless you have a date in mind. I know that may be difficult to determine with your cycles. Nevertheless, I wish you loads of luck and fingers crossed for a BFP!


@mummy2o Have you heard of ovufriend or tcoyf? They are very similar to FF. You may want to try one or both to see if they give you any more information than FF or better results with the temps.

@newbie2013 Isn't Skype and technology amazing now? I've moved you to June 30, but I can update whenever you want. Get all the tests you can!

@Hopeful2014 what do you mean by a date? Do you mean a date I am planning on taking a pregnancy test? If so, I am waiting to see if this lump appears in my breast over the next few days which usually means I will see my AF a week later and if it doesn't I would like to take a test on Sunday/Monday.

I did the digital did it last night when I got home from getting it couldn't wait hehe.

Yeah, sorry. We have a list on the front page of when ladies expect to test or expect af to start. Of course, people start testing earlier than that sometimes. There are plenty of ladies in the TBA section because they are not sure when they will test or when to expect af or are waiting to ovulate. Either way is fine. I post a message/good luck testing/reminder on the day for those testing/expecting af.

Awesome news!! Let me know when you want me to update it on here officially!

Well my friend today announced she was early pregnant (4-5 weeks) which I am very happy for her but then she said she was in shock as they weren't even trying as hubby didn't want anymore. Why can't it happen that way with me. I dread the idea of another 2 years ttc as that is what it has taken to conceive my last 2 LO's.

I know it hurts. You will have another little baby. Just think - you already have loads of love waiting for the little one and he or she will be lucky to have you as you are lucky to have him or her.

I always try to think of how when it finally happens that the baby I'll have is so special and I would have missed out on that baby if I would have had another. I know; that's not completely comforting when you want it earlier and wouldn't have known that anyway. My sister-in-law tried for my niece for much longer than her others, but I am so happy that she had the daughter that took a while to come because she is my best friend and such an amazing girl.

You will get there and when you see two lines, hear heartbeat, see baby, and finally hold baby it will be so amazing and worth it all!

Congrats hunni. xxx

Thank you
fingers crossed it won't be long till you get yours

 

[Hopeful2014]

@burgbrandy Good luck! I'm glad to see that your temps look pretty average despite the different waking time. That's got to be somewhat comforting compared to what you thought they might do.

@littlesteph You can see it blinking by your name! I'm sure the digital words mean a lot as well! I'll also add the appointment info.

 

[littlesteph]

thank you yea it dose it mean a lot, hubby doesn't really like lines so seeing them there makes it feel so much more real

 

[burgbrandy]

Yes, im kind of surprised at how well my temps are doing with the two hour difference. Just goes to prove that adjusting temps isnt as accurate. I do adjust them on my tcoyf chart just to see what they look like. Lol! Since i chart in 4 different places, i figured adjusting them on one is a good idea just to see if there is any difference in o day. I have that chart posted on my journal if anyone is interested. It might be a page or so back. Link in siggy.

 

[Lala8]

@Hopeful2014 I will let you know when I decide to do a test.

I just realised I don't know your situation, how long have you been ttc?

 

[OurLilFlu]

Congrats on the new bfps, even the lurking ones!
