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

[nikkilucky77]

Raechay: Thank you! How are you doing?

Kkys9b: Thank you so much! Charles is such a cutie!

Hopeful: Thank you so much! I couldn't have done this without you ladies. I keep taking a test in the morning...definitely nervous but very happy . I am hoping for some bump buddies soon!! This morning I had a headache and felt nauseous...made it feel a little more real to me. DH is over the moon and telling everyone I swear!! I am like seriously you can't tell everyone in case it doesn't stick. Men haha.

Prowife: I'm very optimistic for you. You are right..it is only a matter of time.

 

[ClandestineTX]

@Nicki - test away, honey! I tested daily until 30 DPO, but if you start to feel like watching for progression is making you crazy (e.g. doing more harm than good) STOP. Otherwise, have fun with it!

 

[nikkilucky77]

I can see what you mean...my test this morning was slightly darker but not much so of course I was thinking is it not dark enough. I might have to do every other day until I have my blood drawn lol.

 

[momwithbabies]

Nikki: Congratulations! I'm wishing you the best!

ProfWife: Stupid AF...I'm sorry she's here. Praying it's next cycle for you!!! I know you've been praying for a long time. I hope AF leaves you soon and ovulation comes around quickly.

Hopeful: You have such wonderful optimism! I need some of that as well, lol.

AFM...AF needs to leave! CD 5 and fairly heavy bleeding. I feel exhausted!!! Surprisingly, I have never been diagnosed with anemia. Sometimes, I think I have it. It doesn't help that I've been on my feet all day. We had open house tonight. I'm pooped!

 

[ProfWife]

It's possible that you do have it but they've never pulled bloods at the right time.

I'm having a really heavy cycle myself. CD3 here. So far, the dex is actually improving my mornings. I'm just now getting really tired (I normally poop out early in the afternoon and need more coffee).

About to head to bed...

Hi ladies

I've been here stalking and posting short messages only. I'm reading everything and thinking about you all.

Clande, how are you doing today?

Profwife and MWB, I'm sorry af got you. Let's hope she clears off and you can each start afresh. I'm sorry she's being so annoying.

Nikki, I'd love to see a photo of your progression. Is af officially late now?

Afm, af hit with a bang yesterday, along with a cold, a headache and not much sleep. It was an awful day! Dh had an awful day too so we were bickering badly last night. Today is another day and I'm determine to make it a better one!

 

[Hopeful2014]

@ProfWife I love your optimism. It does feel like a fresh start!

@nikkilucky77 I'm so happy for you. I see that you updated your status. Let me know when you want me to update it on here and add you to the BFP thread.

@momwithbabies Thank you! The optimism comes easier on some days. I'll continue to have optimism for you as well and hope some of it reaches you.

@newbie2013 I'm sorry af came and about the argument. Those things mixed with being tired and sick are never a good match. I hope you feel better soon. You're right; today is another day. It is also another cycle and full of opportunity. Fingers crossed.

 

[ClandestineTX]

@newbie: I hope today is better for you. What you described yesterday sounds like a perfect day for a time out, just put up your feet and escape in a good book or a nice film. I am doing weirdly OK. I knew from the beginning things were a long shot at best and was very honest with myself about that, even when it seemed like it *might* be promising. Today is my second day in a row of no spotting. Waiting for reply from Doc as far as what to do next - whether or not we need to test anything or just monitor with HPTs to make sure the levels drop. I have a lot of work to do for the next two months, so I think that will make it easier to put this out of my mind and move on.

 

[nikkilucky77]

Newbie: I hope today is better for you. I hate bickering with my dh. I've been thinking about you as well. Here is a pic from Saturday morning...I'm officially late either Monday or tomorrow (my cycles varied from 26-28 days each month) I took a frer today and my lines were almost identical so I think that is a good sign.

Clandestine: Are you still testing everyday then? I hope your doc gets back to you so you know what to do next. Best of wishes!

Hopeful: Thank you! I might wait until I am at least 8 weeks along to change it on the front page but I am feeling optimistic. Will be exactly 4 weeks tomorrow and I am going to feel better and better as each week passes.

Prowife: It sounds like you are already motivated for next cycle. I really want you to get your bfp!!

Mwb: Ugh I hope af leaves soon .

 

[ClandestineTX]

I gave up daily testing last week, after we were sure it wasn't viable. Still positive yesterday, will likely avoid testing until at least Saturday. I am at a point where it's bothersome to still have a positive HPT, as ironic as that is, but I know as long as the line comes up - my body isn't going to fully reset and at this point, it's just in my way. It can take 2-6 weeks for the levels to completely drop, but mine we so low to start with, I am hoping it doesn't even take a full two weeks.

 

[nikkilucky77]

Clandestine: I hope it doesn't take two weeks either. Wow! Crazy it takes that long to get out of our bodies!

 

[melann13]

Nikkilucky, don't be worried if tests don't look darker to you. I didn't think mine looked darker but I had BW at the same time and my levels were tripling! And she's 7.5mos old now, so it was obviously fine

 

[ProfWife]

Clandestine - Are the numbers on the bloodwork still dropping? I wonder if they won't do a scan to see if you have something impacted or something else going on that is causing the symptoms (ectopic or something). Hoping that it just turns out to be nothing but a smooth reset.

Nikki - That makes three of us (hubby counts ;-) ).

AFM - AF is finally almost over after two very heavy days. I'm normally completely past AF except mild spotting by CD 4. Not the case this go around. I'm blaming surgery. ;-)

 

[ClandestineTX]

@ProfWife: I'm not worried with a max hCG of 126. Not doing blood work or HPTs at the moment - giving it at least a few days to see a difference, will monitor with HPTs, unless it doesn't drop noticeably within a week or so. And I don't have any symptoms.

 

[Dannixo]

Hi ladies! Not sure if you remember me but I started with you all on this thread way back the very first month. Just saw it again and figured I'd check in. We are now hitting the 2 year mark in October. Still not pregnant. Have never had a positive. Have really stopped caring so much. Last time to the fertility doctor in May. We may go back once we get new insurance in November. We became licensed foster parents in june. Still waiting on our first baby. Prayers to all of you still waiting. I see some familiar names from the beginning.

 

[kksy9b]

Hi Danni! Nice to see you again. I'm sorry that you haven't gotten your BFP yet but congratulations on being foster parents! My BIL and SIL became licensed at the end of last year and they absolutely love the kiddos that are with them.

 

[ProfWife]

I remember you, too! Yup, still here without a BFP myself.

Hope you are assigned some little ones soon to foster and love on. I know that you have so much love to give to any and all little ones you will touch.

 

[nikkilucky77]

Dannixo: Sorry that you haven't gotten your bfp yet. I am excited for you though for doing foster care. One of best friend's parents did that and they loved it

 

[Hopeful2014]

@nikkilucky77 I'm optimistic for you as well. Do you have any appointments scheduled yet?

@ClandestineTX I hope this resolves itself quickly for you. I know the waiting must be terrible.

@ProfWife It makes four of us! I'm sending lots of hope as well!

@Dannixo I remember you. I'm so glad you checked in. Congrats on becoming foster parents. Good luck to you as well.

 

[momwithbabies]

Hi, Dannixo! Welcome back to this thread. It sucks not having anything for two years, I know. And congratulations on becoming foster parents. The system needs people like you who love children and are not in it for money or anything else. I hope you get a kiddo sooner than later.
