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

[Hopeful2014]

@ClandestineTX I'm hopeful for you and glad that you had such a nice trip. Fingers crossed!

@newbie2013 Friday always feels better than Monday. How did it go with the homeopath?


Does anyone have any plans for Valentine's Day? I know the Fifty Shades of Grey movie comes out. My husband and I have been talking about finally reading it. My fertile window starts on Valentine's Day so that should be interesting. I've ordered him a surprise gift. We're both wishing for a BFP; that would be the best gift. I hope you all are having a good week!

LD, a homeopath takes a holistic view of your health and prescribes specific homeopathic remedies to counteract the source of various symptoms. Given that I've finally had my Issues nailed down to one or two things, I want to see if homeopathy can help with my cervical mucus issue. I'll pick up my remedies today but she will want me to order stuff from abroad as well, which is always challenging In a country where delivery services are questionable!

Thanks newbie sounds like s good idea. Xx

I like to buy a few presents for dh for valentines day. We usually cook a nice tea and I buy a few extra treats like candles and chocolates I love valentines day.

I like the meal deals you can get in the uk. They do main meals. Sides, drinks and treat bundles in the supermarkets. I like the marks and spencer ones.

I've bought my dh a card that says I love you yo the moon and back. It's one that that friend sells at her cute online shop.

Anybody else enjoy valentines day x

 

[ClandestineTX]

I swear there are holidays I do celebrate, but Valentine's Day isn't one of them! It's just another day to us around here!

I am barely ahead of Hopeful though, first +OPK yesterday, though temp still down (but another +OPK) this morning. Exhausted from work and keeping our bases covered.

Hey ladies! Hope all is well! I keep checking to see how everyone is doing

Congrats lazydaisys!

 

[Hopeful2014]

@newbie2013 I hope you're able to find the remedies you need. I imagine international shipping can be hard. I hope this helps!

@Lazydaisys I like Valentine's Day, too. My mother-in-law got me an indoor tulip. My husband got me a gift and made me a card. I'm excited for you and hope to hear wonderful news tomorrow!

@ClandestineTX We usually just get what we want throughout the year instead of just holidays, but we celebrate Valentine's Day just for the thought. Fingers crossed for you!

@nikkilucky77 Hi! How is everything?


AFM Ovulation is approaching. Fingers crossed for us all!

 

[Lazydaisys]

Thanks hopeful. I'm a stressed out state. I have my 6 week scan today and have been having pink spotting:-/

 

[ProfWife]

Spotting is apparently pretty common - if I base it off the number of my friends who had it.

Praying it all goes well today and you get to hear or see the teeny tiny heartbeat.

 

[Lazydaisys]

Thanks, scan went well They think the spotting is irritated cervix from progesterone pessaries.

 

[ProfWife]

That will do it. How long will you continue the supplement?

Doc happy with the way little bean looks?

 

[Hopeful2014]

@Lazydaisys I'm so excited for you!

@ProfWife How are you?

 

[ProfWife]

I'm hanging in. I took the trigger shot on Valentine's Day...we've DTD since then every night. Praying that one on each side + trigger + good timing = positive. We'll see in a few weeks.

Now the waiting begins...again...

 

[momwithbabies]

ProfWife: I hope you are doing well.

Lazy: I don't think I told you congrats! I'm hoping it's smooth sailing from here!

Hopeful: How are you?

I know I missed several of you, and I need to go back and reread. I know some of you were busy BDing over Valentines, so I wish you good luck!

I haven't been posting lately, but hello to everyone. I'm tired of winter, probably like most of you. I'm waiting for AF to arrive, but surprisingly, I don't have my emotional mood swings yet (knock on wood). Just feeling like she's on her way. She'll probably show up Thursday when I'm being evaluated. I'm hoping she'll show up today, so I can get through the worst of it.

I'm tired of this TTC journey, and I'm becoming more and more complacent that another baby may not be in the cards. This is a good thing. I don't feel like I've dwelled on it as much. I'm so busy with work and family, so I guess the true test for me will be this summer (even though I'll still be working). I'm still rooting for you ladies as you are courageous in keeping with it. I've been waiting for 5 years, and I'm praying God is allowing me to accept what isn't meant to be. I thank you all for replying to me, especially on the tough days, and never being judgmental.

Sorry for the long post. It feels good to get this out!

 

[ProfWife]

Complacent means you know something should change but you accept the bad. Contentment is what I wish for you. Whether you continue the TTC journey or not - I pray you'll find contentment with where you are.


AFM - Got news on Saturday that my uncle (Mom's brother) who lost his wife back in November passed away. He only made it 107 days without her. Then we got a call that my dad's older brother passed away (they lost their only sister the same week my other aunt died in November). Now we're waiting on cancer to take the life of yet another of my mom's brothers. It's been a really crappy weekend. :-/

 

[momwithbabies]

Thank you for the kind words, ProfWife. I'm so sorry for your family's losses.

 

[Hopeful2014]

@ProfWife I'm so sorry to hear about your family members. I hope they are in peace and can meet up again and that your family can keep them close in a meaningful way. One on each side + trigger + good timing sounds like an excellent plan. I hope it's the key to your positive! I'm waiting with you.

@momwithbabies Thanks! I'm good. I'm closing in on the end of the tww and hopeful. Exercise is good and life is good mostly. I completely agree with you about winter! I hate waiting for af to show. I have plans next week and wish if af has to come that it's earlier in the week so I can get through it before the event. I hope your evaluation was good! We're always here and never judgmental.



AFM We have had TONS of snow! I thought we would make it out this year with just a little here and there, but we got tons last week and it's still here. We got a tulip plant for inside and I'm patiently waiting for spring. I hope the spring brings better possibilities and a chance for rejuvenation and energy for us all.

 

[newbie2013]

Sorry to read about the sad time for your family Profwife. Thinking of you.

I'm on cd irrelevant! Dh was away for work until yesterday and I'm pretty sure I o'ed while he was away. We dtd last night but we probably missed it. I've got a friend coming to stay around the start of my next cycle. She's an amazing nurse, so I'm planning to try iui meds while she's here so she can help me with the injections at first! I'm too scared to try on my own!!

 

[ProfWife]

Okay ladies - I need opinions.

I was testing the Ovidrel out of my system, and I was STUNNED when it was just about a negative finally (around 8 dpo/10 days post trigger) and then we had a positive within 1-2 minutes on 9 dpo/11 days post trigger. Later that day I took a digital - negative! The next morning - negative! Today???

I'm 11 dpo. I cannot decide if I do see a line or not. Husband doesn't, but he couldn't see the trigger fade all the way either.

I loaded it onto countdown if you're willing to take a look to see what you think...

[nikkilucky77]

Prowife: I definitely see some positives but that last one was unsure for me. Keep us posted!! I'm crossing my fingers!

 

[ProfWife]

The first few (up to the first 5) are due to Ovidrel leaving my system. That's what I was initially keeping track of on the paper. The 6th, 7th, and 8th strips are all after the Ovidrel should have been out of my system.
