[live_in_hope]

Hi lovely ladies! :wave:

Good luck and to you all xxx

So the verdict is in. "Hopeful" you can update my status! At the time of this picture my blood HCG was 23.7 (at 11dpo), so still low, but most definitely preggo! I'll go in on Saturday to get another to make sure it's doubling. Plus the doc said that given that I've had a MC he will do an early US at 8wks just to give reassurance, so that's only about a month away. Anyone post MC can relate to the excitement/anxiety of a new BFP, but I think that having more data will make me relax a bit.
Plus the appt was originally for a progesterone check to make sure it gets high enough (we were thinking about Clomid) and it was >20! Last time it was only 7, but that was 3dpo. So... the thermometer is going away. Knowing that it's nice and high right now I don't see any point in terrifying myself with a random low reading.
I even went and bought some yarn to make it seem real. A January baby in Wisconsin is gonna need some hats!
Baby dust to all of you. There is hope!

Congrats on the bfps girls! Yay!
Hopeful2014...symptoms sound promising!
I am feeling rough today. Tested this morning 10dpo as temp had gone back up after 2 day dip, bfn, so will try again tomorrow unless temps down in the morning and AF on way. Due tomorrow.....x

Thanks so much; I really hope so!

Last month's chart looks like you had a temp dip at 10 dpo. This month you had a dip and are back up by 10 dpo. I don't like to speculate too much, but that is definitely a good sign!

Just thought I'd give you guys an update - usually I have a 34 day cycle and ovulate on CD21. This cycle, I ovulated on CD14 and on CD18 and today I have had a little spotting which has stopped both times.
I have tested this morning although I am pretty sure it is too early, I only got an evap. Please can you decide for me when I should test? at the moment I think I am on the chart on the 14th or 15th?

I would assume you are 7 dpo if you did ovulate on CD 14. It takes 6-12 dpo for implantation. It depends on how long you want to wait. Some start testing early, but if you are afraid of false negatives you could wait until 11-14 dpo. 14 dpo would be May 9th.

If your usual is 34 cycle days and ovulation on CD 21, it would mean you have a 13 day lp. That would suggest May 8th would be next expected period.

Let me know which date you decide. Good luck!

Thank you so, much hun!!! I'll test on the 6th

Congrats!! Yay you're lucky- my ins. Doesn't do routine hcg- only if there is an issue. I am post 2 miscarriages as well, so I totally understand the excitement/fear factor.
At first I was bummed out that they didn't do hCG, but then I realize that I would probably be obsessing over that so I'm just going by my good symptoms

 

[want2bemommy]

I can't wait to see that list grow!

I am very blessed that I actually work for the same university that provides my health care, so I do have pretty good coverage. Course when we were considering treatments the coverage wasn't that great.

Congrats on the hCG level, melann13!

Please update my testing date to 13 May, I discarded two temps (taken at much later than usual time) and all 3 detectors now agree I'm 3 DPO today.

 

[RaeChay]

Congrats to the bfp's!! Gosh, this is starting to get exciting

Changing my test date to 5-10-13, as that will be the day AF is due to show.

Good luck to all !!

 

[pennymarie]

Just got some OTC progesterone cream. I'm going to wait until tomorrow's temperature to see if I'm going to use it. Still have to figure out how to know what is 1/4 tsp and what's 1/2 tsp. But my temperature is already dipping, and my cramps are bad, and my nipples hurt. These are all AF symptoms, so I'm just scared.

Any opinions?

Congratulations!! Happy and healthy 9 month! On another note, what kind of yarn did you buy?! Do you crochet or knit? I crochet and My kids have hundreds of hats x

AFM: waiting to ovulate, FF took away my crosshairs again as I thought they would. Should Ov in the next day or two, opk's getting darker.

Also, did someone mention ways to increase cm? As I've been trying grapefruit juice this cycle and it either works or its a huge coincidence as this cycle I have LOADS! I normally get a little, mostly when I actually check for it but this month there's no need to go checking!! Sorry for the tmi lol

So nice to see bfp's already, it's so encouraging.

Hi ladies. Well a littlw worried now as just been to the loo and wiped after and noticed a few drops of light pink blood on the tissue. I also feel a little tender in that area although I havent dtd for about 6 nights now. Any advice would be great. Xxx

It's "Seedling" Organic Cotton in a muted rainbow variegated. I also got some Bernat Baby for a hat for a friend who's expecting. I haven't been able to bring myself to knit baby things for anyone since the MC, so I've gotta make up for it!

It is very possible that it is IB. You are 6 DPO and it very well could that. One way to tell is it in 3-4 days and if it was then it would show a
