Newbie to TTC, looking for other newbie buddies! :) 33 ladies, 6 BFPs!!

[Bee Bee]

Alright ladies, I need your opinions...

I am going to go ahead and apologize for the TMI: I woke up this morning, did my normal routine and when I went to the bathroom I had some blood (red, pink, and brown) when I wiped. I used the bathroom again when I got to work and it was just brown and pink. This has tapered off throughout the morning. This is highly confusing to me because AF is due until next week. I am fairly certain my luteal phase is around 13/14 days based on past history. AF is never early for me. I do have some mild cramps but not like AF cramps. Extra information: I had 3 +OPKs on Dec. 29th, 30th, and 31st. Either AF is early or something else is going on.

I need your help!!!!

It could possibly be Implantation bleeding! I forget if you temp. If you do, did you get a temp dip at all?

I wasn't able to temp this morning but yesterday my temp dropped to 97.9 where it was at 98.1 for the past several days. I am hoping that it is implantation bleeding but we will see.

AFM!!

I had one or two wipes the other morning of that brown tissue I spoke of and then never saw it again. :/ So, still in limbo waiting for O or some sort of AF.

I'm impatient when I think about it too much, but in general I am remarkably zen about it. Funny thing is that one of the psychics said that I would be playing a waiting game. Boy was she right on that! hahaha

It's alright! As I said, I'm doing alright despite being impatient! So, it's not a HUGE deal. But I would sure like to see some signs either way!

Hi, I am having trouble deciphering the abbreviations here, but I would love some buddies to go through this process with. I just joined yesterday. I am 35, trying to conceive my first child. I have never been pregnant before. My partner is 45. He has one child. I want so much to be a mom!!!! I have been using ovulation tests for the last couple months and just tested positive for the LH surge this morning. I changed the tests that I had been taking a couple of days ago. The tests that I had been using were not picking it up and I got really worried. I am glad that on a whim I decided to change the brand!!!!! Anyhow, I am hoping tonight may be the night and I am feeling hopeful for the first time in months. I would love some ladies to talk to. All my friends have kids, and have never had to go through the process of "trying". Good luck to everyone!!!!! T

Hello all!

I've recently joined this site and currently TTC baby #1. My husband already has a son from his first marriage so this would be our first child together. I'm really hoping it doesn't take too many cycles! I took my last bcp on Christmas Eve and I'm not sure if my body is gonna take time to get back on track. I'm guessing I'm 9 dpo but I could be totally wrong! I had breakthrough bleeding for two days after stopping the pill so not sure how that factors in. So confused but trying not to drive myself crazy! I ordered ic tests and they arrived today so I had to test. Bfn as I assumed it would be but I couldn't help myself lol.

Hello and welcome to the new ladies:wave: sending baby dust to you both

Jess: I took the bcp for a few months after my m/c back in Feb of 2013 and it took 3 months for my cycles to go back to my normal 28 days. I hope it doesn't take long for you and who knows I heard you can be really fertile after going off so you might get that bfp this cycle gl

Afm: day 6 of high fertility and my bbt chart is getting me kinda frustrated. I toss and turn alot in my sleep because our bed is just crap and too firm, I cant sleep on my stomach(which is my fav way to sleep) so I hardly ever get a good nights rest and sometimes I wake up 15-20 mins before my alarm goes off, so I try to go back to sleep but I move without even realizing it hopefully its not affecting my temp. Idk but we have been bd'ing so lets hope it pays off
Fx'd for you all

If I am a bit restless I have found so far that it doesn't really effect my temps too much. And if I do wake up a bit before my alarm, I just take my temp then. I really don't think 15-20 mins early will kill your temp for the day But I think laying there, waking up and slowly heating up will. Still, probably not that much though! Unless you are getting out of bed

Update: So it looks like this was AF. However, it's not my typical AF, but I believe it is too much bleeding (sorry for TMI) for implantation bleeding. This is extremely confusing and frustrating for me considering my luteal phase as always been around 14 days. This cycle, my luteal phase was 7 days. It has been a crappy week to say the least, and this is discouraging.

BeeBee, I do hope you have some clarity on your issues soon. Many many prayers go to you along this journey.

I think it does affect mine though because I tried temping when I got up the 15mins before my alarm went off and when I took it it was way low so I went back to sleep and waited until my alarm went off and then I did it again and it seemed accurate that time. I just have to go to bed later I guess haha. I did get out of bed before temping on cd1 by accident but other then that been pretty good with it. How are you today? any signs of o or af yet?

day 7 of high fertility over here yesterday I was cramping, my boobs were tingling and super sensitive not sure what that was about. I thought for sure it was o so I took a ic and another clear blue around 9pm but the ic was neg and clear blue still said high fertility we bd'd 2 days in a row then took a break yesterday so will get back on it tonight Im hoping all this pays off, I am starting to really regret spending all that money on these clear blues but I have to say that I really like the conceive plus. It feels so natural like real cm you produce, way better then pre-seed imo and recommend it to everyone
