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

I know it does help sperm get to the egg, but i dont see what it could hurt during implantation...cervix is usually closed after ovulation so not many swimmers would be getting up there and im sure an orgasm isnt any worse on ur uterus than many other daily activities, like lifting, running, dog stepping on stomach (lol), or anything else. Hmmmm...will research more later.

I agree and really most of the rest of the population has no clue they are even pg in the TWW and their lives go on like normal and they realized :AF: is late

@AllStar I'm so glad it's a darker positive! I was afraid based on the temps that it hadn't happened since it didn't go up and I didn't want you to miss it. Good luck!

@pennymarie I agree; I wish there was a way to know almost immediately or at least earlier. It sucks waiting for af to show and I dread bathroom trips around expected time.

@Kwaggy I haven't heard that either. I wonder if it has any evidence to it. Let us know what you find @burgbrandy.


Ladies, I understand feeling out. I find myself struggling with that feeling too. I haven't tested yet and probably won't until intense symptoms show or I'm closer to day. Trying to think positively:
1. Lots of women are pregnant during tww/first month/first 2-3 months(!) and do not really feel pregnant or notice it at all.
2. Symptoms can be the same every month and still have a different result at the end of the month.
3. Symptoms can be different from what you may have felt in past pregnancies.
4. If af is not here---you are still in!
5. We are here for you either way.

Hi everyone! I tested this morning and it was positive! I wouldn't call it a BFP yet, but it is most definitely pos!

GL to all others in the TWW! I'm hoping it will stick...

OMG! 6 bfps!!!! Mies - congrats! Hope it is a sticky one!!

Afm, still no af... Was due yesterday. Won't test until tomorrow because I don't have any tests and I think af is trying to trick me. My longest cycle lately was 35 days when I was stressed and I was super stress this cycle, too.

 

[OurLilFlu]

Congrats on that BFP! Serious love-on for this thread! Must be in luck!

 

[live_in_hope]

As suspected, a bfn theres alot to be said about a gut feeling and I'm just no feeling it this month. My temp dipped slightly too and have very AFy cramps...i hope i dont start today as that will mean my luteal phase is only 9 days and thats not good really. Im not out until she shows so im still in the game...(my poor attempt at PMA) lol. Feeling bluergghh Xx.

 

[Hopeful2014]

Morning!

Congrats on all the BFP's. It's so exciting

Not to be 'Debbie downer' but I think I'm out this month. This is much harder than the previous times (this was IUI #4). I just feel this was our last shot as they say anything after 3-4 attempts is futile.

I took a HCG booster injection (pregnyl) twice, last one 7 days ago. I tested out the booster- watching the line get lighter. I did see it get darker once, but I feel the booster was at its peak point at that time of POAS.

As for current SS, I've been crampy pretty much everyday since the IUIs (today I'm 15 and 16 dpiui; 7 dp 2nd booster). Sore breasts- everyday and still. And I'm starving, all the time. I was hopeful these were pg sx's, but with the fainting line (nearly visible this am) I feel these sx's are due to the evils of the pregnyl. I don't beta until Monday evening after work. Still no AF, not even the prespotting I always have. Again- evil pregnyl will most likely delay AF, so I've heard.

I went through the emotional dealings myself yesterday. I haven't told DH yet. I don't want to ruin his weekend. So I'll tell him after the beta results come back, just in the small chance it's positive. I'll deal with the bulk of the emotional roller coaster and just give home the final news.

Sorry this post is soooo long. No one else understands as you ALL know. It feels good to talk/ 'type' it out. Thanks for reading

And congrats again to all these exciting BFP's!!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry. It is not fair that you have to go through this or feel this way.

I looked for some stories of ladies who struggled with this as well and didn't get their positives until IUI # 4 or 5. Don't give up. Nothing is futile that is still worth fighting for.

Has anyone else been told not to orgasm during the 2ww?

I've heard of this and last month was convinced this was the reason. I don't know why, but my sex drive sky rockets around 6dpo. So this month I was going to swear off orgasming until AF....it didn't go well. I got very and .....so I only have twice during TWW thus far (TMI). And I'm already scared because I got more crampy afterwards. Mood improved though

 

[Mies]

I can say, from my - albeit limited - experience, it doesn't matter...

 

[liz1985]

Mies- congrats on your BFP! It's so exciting seeing them all flashing on front page.

Good luck to everyone else, remember your not out till AF comes x

Congrats hunnni. H&H 9 months to you. xx

 

[lesh07]

Is feeling sad today. I got up at 4am this morning with a full bladder to test again and yet again another BFN. I think I am going to be out this month. I know I am only 9dpo but I am due on in 4 days and I know I O'd early so really thought some hcg would have been showing up by now. x

 

[AllStar]

Congrats Mies!!!

Loving this thread!

MAY , HERE WE COME!!!

Ladies, Remember
1. That it's not over until AF comes
2. That many ladies get false negatives
3. That implantation happens 6-12 dpo
4. That we are here for you no matter what

I know some of us will test early, so tell me when you post if you want to be updated as TBA for June or with your new June testing date or as a . I have an idea. What if instead of marking you as AF or hugs on the front, I just add your new date or as TBA? We keep adding to the list from May and on until we can see everyone have that beautiful beside her name. What do you all think? Good luck and fingers crossed!
