Need some buddies 1dpo, its a waiting game!

[laustiredttc]

hey sni, thats a really good way to look at things huni. Also good luck with the exams and let us know how you get on, glad those shots are not killng you

hw thats great news, bring on the pos opk.

hey mama sorry to hear bout the neg test but like the girls say its very very early days yet. you will get your huni i just know you will

ok question ladies: i have been doing the cbfm and opks, now both say i O and the cbfm really is reliable but my temps have not gone up by much at all?
started off 97.58 before apparent O and gone up to 98.17 is that enough?

 

[HWPG]

thanks laus! i have read that it needs to change by 0.4 or more (and stay up!), so i think your delta should be enough. i love your emoticons; they make me want to use them in real life.

 

[laustiredttc]

lol i think if i gave the thumbup to any of my friends in real life they would laugh and run away ha ha. But i most certainly do my happy dances when something turns good.

Dudettes i know i said i wouldnt ss, but i have been having some serious dizzy spells today, like was out with my friend (who does'nt want children) and i near enough went west into a store window. Scared the sh*& out of me.

ps checked and i'm only 4dpo

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

Sniz-your strong and awesome! Glad your feeling better even if it's slight.

Hw-woohoo! pos opk right around the corner, get bd!!!

Laus-That's is a good enough temp rise. Looks and sounds good to me! FX

Thanks guys...i want to test tomorrow but afraid it'd be bfn again....temps look good to me but last month it was still above coverline day before I started af. I don't know how far above coverline they should be to be considered "up" and stay up to be pregnant???

 

[laustiredttc]

hey mama i wish i could give you advice on that but i'm the worst at temping. I put my temps in ff though and t came back that i actually o and i am 4dpo as expected, woo hoo

 

[HWPG]

thru the magic of the interwebs (haha), i read that 18 days of elevated temps past ovulation for pregnancy - but seriously, who is charting bbt and waiting 18 days to test? i mean - if you're CHARTING, you prob already know your LP or thereabouts, so 18 days?! please! even i, the coward of hpts, would test! that being said, my temp didnt drop to coverline until at least 1 day after spotting/light bleeding. i even had to "fool" FF into putting it as my cd1. so yea.... nothing i just wrote was probably helpful!

 

[Snizuitz]

Hw-- haha! Loved the end of your post! That's how I feel at the end of most my conversations.

Laus-- Yay! You O'd! I'd say that crazy dizzy spell is definitely a good sign! Fingers crossed!! Oh, and my fave of your emoticons is the kissing couple!

Mama-- I'm sending positive karma your way!!

I use a lot of exclamation points.

Hey ladies - haven't been on much today. I got wrapped up in cleaning the whole house and then started reading The Hobbit. Such a good book. I actually finished it too. Haha.

Anywho - I am currently 6DPO still feeling little pinches right on the midline of my uterus. They're driving me batty! All hours of the day - pinch pinch pinch.... Pinch! And hmm. Oh my acne is ever so prevalent. Isn't that cute? I even have one sprouting in the corner of my mouth. So sexy.... Hmmm what else... OH! My boobs! They feel like they've been used as punching bags or something! Positively killing me! I can ONLY lay on my back! Not to mention my actual nip feels as if someone held a lighter to it then tried to soothe it with sand paper...... And ... Bloating. Frequently peeing. Extreme and ferocious irritability that ignites just as fast as it disappears. (my SIL caught the brunt end of it tonight and I have yet to apologize) because a) I'm still not feeling 'sorry' yet. And b) ... Well I simply just don't care. (See? I'm in a nasty mood. :-/ ) Run for the hills girls! Haha.

Btw missy, I hope your trigger is wearing off better than mine because I know my husband thinks he married a troll. :-/ Agh. I really hope this results in a BFP for my husbands sake.

 

[Brayr08]

So,this is to the ladies who took the trigger shot: (some of this you probably already know if you've read our previous conversations, but I just felt I should remind you) The trigger made me have almost every symptom you can think of. I didn't start feeling naseous until 7DPO and I thought to myself, "This might be it! If the trigger shot was going to affect me this way, then it would have from the start, right???" So, tested 10DPO, very faint went in for blood test . Very dissappointing. So TRY not to read too much into anything HA! I garuntee once I am 1DPO I'll be a symptom spotting maniac! Also, TRY and be strong and not test until at least 12DPO. Which I know I will for sure wait. Anyways, that was my preaching for the day. I'm sure you'll all get your (a REAL ), so none of this will matter anyways.

 

[laustiredttc]

hey girls glad your all well

got up this morning and temp dropped to 98.04. sometimes i wish i never did charting it confuses the hell out of me and quite frankly sends me a bit

Got a tx today from sil got her christening soon. The other bro's pregnant girl will be there, i am gearing up for it but not sure how i will cope with all of it

also got a tx from my husbands, friends wife today as well, JUST after the sil tx. 'howz the trying going? she started same time as me wish these stupid feelings would just leave me alone. Or the stupid witches of eastwick

 

[HWPG]

morning! laus, i also hate my feelings. woke up this morning crying - is that possible? life is SO unfair, gr. then i put my big girl pants on and went to work. good luck with your family events; i usually end up surly and people avoid me without having to tell them to, ha.
my temps are confusing me - last month i had a nice 97.0 for 3 days before O, with a jump to 97.4 right after - beautiful! this month, i've had 3 days at 97.6, no pos opk. i guess i have a higher coverline this month? does that happen? and this morning i was like, "preseed? ewcm? semen? well, whatever's coming out of me, i had sex last night so i should be covered" (sorry, gross, but it has to have happened to others). TTC is so exhausting - "whats my temp? whats this goo? what day is it?" - i must say that OH is being ridiculously supportive and loving, esp after my bf's preg news. Here's to many BFPs on this thread! I'm sorry i'm so far behind you guys, but appreciate you letting me stick around!

 

[TaylorDF]

Yeah I know my symptoms are all trigger. I got triggered on August 1st and am not testing until the 16th. I am not in ANYWAY going to risk a false positive. I hate the way the trigger makes me feel. --- all of the symptoms of preg and no reward. Haha. I'm just ready for it to wear off or be real. I feel like I'm in purgatory.

I know what you mean with the temping. I quit because I had bloodwork and stuff done for pre-O and post-O and everything so I was like - bump this crap... No more temping. And my temps looked like a two yea old's scribble anyway... and I can't use OPK's because of the trigger.

[HWPG]

taylor, i'm so sorry you're having all those symptoms/reactions. 9 more days... you can do it!

 

[Snizuitz]

Taylor-- Ok, sometimes your posts look like I wrote them! I have exactly the same thing going on with the pinchy feelings in the uterus area the last day or so. Sometimes it downright hurts! My boobs aren't that sore, just a little. But I'm lucking out with the mood stuff so far-- not too witchy, just tired and foggy at the end of the day.

Bray-- Yeah, it's good for us to remember! It's easy to feel like, "Maybe...?" but there's no way to tell. Last month I started testing at 8dpo (I think) and kept testing until I got a clear negative so I would know how long the trigger stuck around. It was a full two weeks! Triggering is going to save me so much money on tests since I can't rely on them until I'm late for my period anyway! Lol.

I'm so glad right now that all of my friends who were pregnant had their babies earlier this year (except for one-- dang her!!). I don't have to hear about how wonderful it is to be pregnant. Now I just hear how horrible it is not to get any sleep. Serves them right, the jerks! They got preggers before me!

 

[wanttobemum]

Someone please enlighten me....what's a trigger? I thought i knew every trick in the book but obviously not

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

bfn again today...temp went down a little more, no symptoms at all of anything...i don't think i'm gonna get my bfp this time, i'm starting to give up and just accept the 2 girls i do have, i've thought before god didn't want me to have more than 3..and the only reason he blessed me with being pregnant last time with my baby boy at 18 weeks was to prove i can carry a boy since i thought i couldnt. why did he have to take him away, why??? i'm getting sick of trying, i don't know if i can keep doing it anymore.

 

[HWPG]

oh Mama! i'm so so sorry you feel this way. i'm so sorry you're sad and frustrated. i have not had a loss but i do understand the feeling of literally how do we keep going on? and then tomorrow comes and it starts all over. hug and love on your daughters today. and love on yourself also.

 

[JennyBLove]

Hey all! 3DPO here, this is the first month we are really trying...been trying for few months but more in tune with body and more detailed this time. also hit right on with BD'ing since he ws home from work for week of fertility and ovulation.

Symptoms 3DPO: Last night was having cramps in right side and lower back just for 10 mins or so. little cm, and had to pee like 3 times in middle of night....not sure if just drinking to much juice but i know thats early to tell n lol. when should we all test? hard to wait ;/

 

[HWPG]

i apologize in advance for all the posts - i need to talk....
got a text from best friend "dr confirmed pregnancy! baby due in april!" then another one saying "you and OH need to get busy so we can have babies together!" - so i wrote back "it's not for lack of trying" - but i wanted to write: i know that you are trying to be lighthearted and encouraging, but really, you know we're trying and your comment is a bit insensitive. oh yea, and a reminder that you did what so far i have not been able to do.

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

i guess we both feel helpless hw...i'm sorry and she shouldn't have tx you that. At least the tx wasn't all about her, at least she mentioned having a baby same time as you, but she should know your trying and how bad you want it and the less talk the better! sorry, i had too! Hope things get better soon and I'm here to listen and vent all you want, post all you want cuz I will too and I don't care...just getting it off my chest. If my temp doesn't go back up tomorrow i'm not testing tomorrow.
