Hope everyone had a good week! I felt like this week just dragged on. I am curious to find out if my 26-30-26-30 cycle pattern will continue. I would be due for AF tomorrow then. I think I will test because I am playing on drinking some adult drinks tomorrow...it's been a week and I finally have a weekend off YAY .

Have a great weekend ladies!

 

[newbie2013]

Still no proper AF for me. Spotting after dtd on thursday night and a small amount on wiping twice since. Don't feel like she's on her way, but spotting usually means she is. I was going to test this morning but couldn't remember where I put my tests so didn't bother. I'll look them out tonight if no af today.

Nikky, really looking forward to seeing if your pattern continues! If af comes, have a drink for me tonight!!

Any news pathos?

 

[nikkilucky77]

Newbie: I will . Hopefully af stays away!

I'm pretty certain af is on her way...but it would be nice to have a surprise on my test today!

 

[Lazydaisys]

Hey!

Thoughts are with hopeful and family. Hope she is ok?

I'm on day 30 waiting for af to hit too. I had handle most of the two the week wait, it's the last day or 2 that gets me stressed. is it coming??? Yeah it probably is as it usually does, but you never know do you?? (Tested yesterday and bfn.)Good luck to everybody else. Wonder how many are ttc on this thread now? Xx

 

[ProfWife]

I'm two days behind you. Also a bfn this morning at 12dpo.

 

[Lazydaisys]

It's so disheartening to not get a second line. I've been holding mine up the light and imagining lines like a crazy woman. X

 

[newbie2013]

I didn't test. CD1 for me. Funny how we're almost on the same cycle. Hope I'm the only one who has CD1 this time. Fxed for lots of strong BFPs!

 

[ProfWife]

Thanks Newbie.

Lazydaisys...I do the same thing. You're certainly not alone!

 

[momwithbabies]

I second the staring for a line. It's amazing how you can imagine exactly where that second line would be. Getting the negatives is why I rarely test anymore. It's too heartbreaking.

I'm about two weeks behind you ladies. I've had a little bit of EWCM since Friday, but today's was quite a bit and had a brownish tinge. I hope it's a sign that I'm ovulating today. BD'd Friday and hope to BD today as well. I really wanted to BD yesterday, but husband was too tired. Of course he works this weekend, lol. I'm praying the intercourse every other day will work. Best wishes, ladies.

 

[Lazydaisys]

Very other day should do fine. My doc said about three times a week. We only do during the fertile week now as ttc was great for the sexlife at first but now it's becoming a carefully planned thing. :-/

I feel like my cd 1 will be soon too. X

 

[Hopeful2014]

First, thanks so much to all the ladies who reached out to me and for all who have sent prayers and thoughts our way. It means a lot to me.

@newbie2013 I look forward to reading your journal. I'm sorry that af came. I hope it's the last.

@momwithbabies I hope you're feeling less stressed and better overall since your post about headaches and bad sleep. I'm sending lots of luck your way.

@pathos I knew that temp jump after ovulation looked promising. Congratulations! I'm so happy for you. Let me know when I may update your status on the front page. Remember we have the BFP thread as well.

@nikkilucky77 Have a great weekend off. I hope af stays away.

@Lazydaisys I hope af stays away. Fingers crossed for a BFP.

@ProfWife I'm sorry about the negative. I hope af stays away.

I’ve been avoiding writing this and it’s hard to put it into words. I was so blessed to have the perfect pregnancy and everything seemed to be going well. However, I developed sudden and severe preelcampsia without my knowledge or many symptoms. My doctor didn’t catch anything either. The preeclampsia caused my blood pressure to spike, which caused a placental abruption. This led to extreme cramping, which sent me to the doctor’s office. It was too late though. I had internal bleeding, my kidneys were shutting down, and the severe preeclampsia led to HELLP syndrome. I was very fortunate to have got to the hospital in time because it could have led to seizures or worse by that point. I had to get four bags of blood before delivering. I delivered naturally. We were very blessed in that I was able to deliver her and that we were able to see her beautiful face. She was still small, but so beautiful. I was in the hospital for a week. I think I’m fine, but we are still monitoring everything. My blood pressure is back down. I’ll have to have more blood work done in a couple months to see if everything is back to normal. As of now, and until we speak to the specialist, my doctor says we should wait 12-18 months before trying again. I’m heartbroken. I’m lost. I’m very lucky that I have my wonderful husband who has gone above and beyond in helping me with everything.

I do want to stay in touch and will be on here still. I will get to the other threads later today or tomorrow. You ladies are so kind and I appreciate your friendship.
