New kids on the block! all welcome!! 7 bfps so far!!

[ready2Bmum]

Sahnie- sorry to hear you're out. You have a great attitude. I'm going to try and take some of that on board!

SMGP- thank you for thinking of me. I hope your first tri is going perfectly for you.x
Its CD15 today and no sign of O. I feel I'm out this month as we can't bd again until the night of 26th. If I O between now and then I'm out. Hoping for late O now, but to be honest I'm just going to enjoy Christmas at this point, have a few drinks and not worry about it. If we have to go again next month so be it. Its beginning to take over our lives and I really don't want that.

 

[SMGP]

SMGP, thank you!!

OH and I have both told a few close friends but we are telling my family Christmas Eve and his family on Christmas Day. I'm just afraid of my mom finding out before I can surprise her, I live in a small town lol. I framed some wedding pictures of me and him with each of our families for one of their presents from us. We taped a picture of a stork carrying a baby to the picture frame in front of the wedding picture with the word "SURPRISE!!" on it. I'm so excited for them to see it and figure it out!! I have also had a hard time keeping it a secret, especially from my mom and my sister!! I'm so proud of myself tho, I CANT keep a secret lol....

My back hurting is probably my biggest symptom right now. It's crazy how much it hurts. My boobs hurt too, but they do before AF anyways so I'm used to it. I find myself holding them while walking down stairs to keep them from bouncing too much. It hurts! lol

Have a wonderful day ladies!!

Have you done any due date calendars? Are you going to come over to the first tri forums?

 

[Ltruns33]

I am out too. This month is a hard one, bc I think about how if I had gotten pregnant our first month, this would be around when I was due. I knew the 9th month would be a hard one, I just never thought I'd get here! Really though, it's good I'm not pg this month bc if I got pg I would be due during cross country season, and I'm the head coach over four teams.

Also, i just enrolled in disability at work and it diesnt kick in till Feb. if i got prg this month it wiuld be considered a pre existing condition.

I may take Jan off of ttc bc I want to talk to my dr about doing more tests than just prolactin levels. I don't think everything's ok in there. But all tests say so..anyone know what else I should get tested for besides being cleared if pcos/endo/prolactin? They say I am ovulating, but I don't think my body is supporting implantation. Who knows!

 

[WantingChild]

Sahnie and Ready, I'm so sorry. Good luck next month, both of you.

SMGP, My due date would be the end of Aug./beginning of Sept. Last cycle was 11/25 -11/29 so I guess I'm around 4 weeks. I made a thread in the first trimester but haven't read many posts.

This is the cutest picture ever!! I'm so excited to do this with OH!

Woohoo for ovulation! (Haha this is prob the only place I can say that and not get funny looks!)

Good luck ready!! Sounds like you covered your bases!! Hope it brings you a bfp!

Also, let me know how you knew you needed Clomid. Just curious, I want to know what I need to do to get the show on the road. Trying for going on 9 months and doing all at the right times before during and after the opk says I'm ovulating and not getting a bfp is causing me to search for answers. I'm going to try soy isoflavones and acupuncture this month.

 

[Hellkitty]

Goodluck @Ready2bmum

I am 6dpo, felt myself ovulate on the morning of the 20th, my husband doesn't want me to be pregnant, but I already have a strange feeling that I am. We were not trying in anyway to conceive but he took a risk and I ovulated 3 days later... Either way, whilst it would be inconvenient for me it is something I would be excited about, I am 25 and we have been married for 7 years, I always imagined that I would have a child around now.

So, can't 'test' until the 29th, but fingers crossed it will be a !!!

Baby dust to all! (Here's to a happy new year!)

Ltruns33 - I came off bcps at the beginning of July. We werent trying in July as I was away most of the month. In August we started trying but were just having sex whenever we felt like it. I didnt know about dates or anything else. Sept,Oct & Nov I tracked every single thing my body did daily. documented everything. We told the doctor we wanted to be referred to a specialist immediatley. We met her on Dec 7th and she started me on clomid straight away. It was more a case of "we're not going to wait around and hope for the best". Ive said it on here before, and Ill say it again - its your body, you're paying your doctor, YOU tell her/him what you want. If thats clomid then ask for it. If theres any reason you shouldnt have it theyll explain why. Thats my attitude anyway!!

Hellykitty - thank you and good luck to you too!

Hey ladies! Everyone has been very quiet around here! I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and Happy new year to you all!!

I did a test today at 7dpo. I see a line on it but very unsure if its an indent or not. Its spiltting the votes over on the countdowntopregnancy site too!
If you have a second will you have a quick look and give me an honest opinion please? I know its very very early, I just cant help myself!!
Its 2 views of the same test.

I reckon the second link is definitely a line!!! Try testing with clearblue or first response, I reckon they will be very clear!!!

 

[HWPG]

Ready, sorry to say, but I'm split also! 50/50! Test again soon!

 

[Mitsy424]

I'm also split 50/50! Did you do another test this morning???

 

[ready2Bmum]

Hey ladies. I tested this morning with a FRER and got bfn. Put me in terrible humour for the day as I had my hopes up. Then tested an hour ago and got another similiar line. Im starting to think I may have got a bad batch of the internet tests as the frers are surely more reliable. A bit bummed..

 

[Ltruns33]

Ready, it's still early! When will you test again?

 

[WantingChild]

Hi girls, remember me?? I haven't been on here in awhile and I apologize.

I had my first U/S yesterday along with blood work. I am now 6 weeks 5 days. The U/S technician found 2 sacs!! In sac A, there was a little fetus with a flickering little heart beart.
In sac B, she couldn't find anything.

I'm waiting on the doctor to call me about what to do next and the levels of my HSG. I guess the levels are quite a bit more in twin pregnancies. Anyways, there's my update.

How are you all doing??

 

[HWPG]

Hi wanting! Thanks for updating us - what does that mean for the future? Congrats!

 

[WantingChild]

I left that part out lol. Basically it means that either baby b is hiding or has not matured enough to see it. Or it means that they tried to be twins but baby 2 just didn't make it and didn't progress at all, but the sac is still there. I guess the next ultrasound will probably tell us.

Good to have you back wanting! Hope baby b develops safe and healthy. I've always wanted twins- I think that's the coolest thing ever!

DH and I are good, just going through day to day not too focused on ttc right now. It's bball season and that's been tons of fun coaching and then it's almost my favorite season of all- TRACK! My "babies" all 100+ of them are 7th-10th grade athletes. Love em.

Signed up for another marathon in march! Love it!

So, it's not that we aren't ttc of taking a heal or anything just decided who cares when and not to worry bc I can't control my odds of conceiving anyways. I think after 9 cycles, I just didn't care anymore! Lol .

What's going on in all y'all's worlds?

 

[ready2Bmum]

Wanting child- I hope everything works out for you. Please keep us updated.

Ltruns33- I completely get what you are saying. I feel like a switch has clicked in my brain this month. Less obsessed, more relaxed and a "what will be will be" attitude. A healthier state of mind if nothing else!

AFM af arrived in full swing. just finishing today. So those lines I was getting were evaps or indents. I've decided no more cheapie tests as I got several of those lines and it got my hopes up.
i definately ovulated on the Clomid according to my bloods. Im back on 50mg of Clomid CD2-6 this month (the same as last month) if no baby this month I'm back to my specialist on Feb 6th. She's going to up my Clomid dose she says.

Going to try and have a peaceful month with no obsessing and if the evaps taught me anything it was NO MORE EARLY TESTING!!! Lol.

What point is everyone else at? Anyone waiting to O? Anyone in tww? Anyone on CD4 like me?
