October 2017 testers - Having an Oktoberfest - 9 BFPs and counting

Forums New posts
8 dpo and resisted the urge to test. Im proud of myself. Lol I will start testing friday at 10 dpo as dh is going to new york to visit his brother for 5 days. I was hoping if im preggers Id get at least a faint positive by then so dh can tell his bro in person. If not I’ll hopefully have a surprise for him when he gets home! I was going to wait until af is due the 11th but dh going out of town gives me a perfect excuse to indulge in my poas addiction. :blush:

I definitely am not having really any symptoms (i had zero besides a slight sore throat with my dd). Last month the whole week before my bfp i would wake up feeling good and ready to get up. Id actually get out of bed before my dd would wake up. That is so not me. Im an awful sleeper and have fibromyalgia and lupus so my mornings arent always the greatest. Anywho the last 2 mornings ive woken up feeling good and up out of bed before my dd wakes. Hoping thats a good sign. I felt like a million bucks when pregnant with my dd. Praying another pregnancy goes the same way
 
Sorry about af corgi. Not sire if anyones started a november thread yet. I think some who af got already were hanging in for the end of october
 
Motherofcorgi, sorry that AF got you :hugs: If you start the november thread I am sure I'll join you soon.
 
Tove - your temp looks triphasic. FX this is it. I see you recorded a spotting today i hope it's IB from the temp drop at 8dpo. :dust:
 
Motherofcorgi- I am sure I will wind up on the November board too!!!
 
Motherofcorgi - :hugs: i hope this cycle won't be too long so i could join you in November.
 
So sorry, motherofcorgi! :hugs:

:lol: We've only BD'd once this cycle, so chances are pretty low so far of this being our month. Negative OPKs yesterday (negative at my usual afternoon, slightly stronger but still negative in the evening), though today would normally be my ovulation day, and I had my usual temperature drop this morning. Waiting for the afternoon to arrive so I can do an OPK today and see if I can expect to drop an egg tomorrow or what!
 
10-12 dpo. Had a dream last night that AF came lol. If it is coming I should expect to see spotting in the next few days. Hopefully the spotting will stay away! Otherwise I feel completely normal!
 
Okay so I’m 10DPO and am having very strong sharp pelvic and lower back pain that does not feel anything like AF. It’s so bad that I actually can’t concentrate at work because I can’t sit up or walk straight. I am very nauseous, my mouth is dry, and I feel like I have a lump in my throat. I am also feeling very shaky. This has been going on for about half an hour but I’m noticing that it’s easing up now. Has anyone else experienced this? I am hoping it’s implantation related and I don’t have some sort of infection...
 
The BFN dreams are less distressing than the bfp dreams lol. To get your hopes so high and feel that relief, only to wake up to infertility is pretty crushing. I'd much rather have a BFN dream :haha:
 
So I had an appointment this morning with a fertility specialist. He wants to monitor my upcoming cycle. CD 3 bloodwork, CD6-11 Sonohysterogram <-- someone tell me what that is please. It's a two day test apparently. CD 24 bloodwork. As well as a SA and Bloodwork for DH.

We will do all the tests but after I do the followup appointment to get all the results I won't be seeing him again. He was so impersonal barely looked up at his paper to me. In and out the door. Hardly asked me anything about my cycles or what I was doing to monitor them. On the was out he's like oh stop doing OPKs just check for clear stretchy CM. I'm like "great, thanks!". Loser. But it's fine, hes ordered all my tests and I'll make sure to get copies of our results to move along to the next doc. (if we need to)

Anyways, AF should be here Friday or Saturday. Next cycle coming up with be lucky #7. Depending on the results of this monitored cycle I don't think we will move forward with any medically assisted methods (unless something clearly indicates we should) but rather take our results and see an naturopathic doctor. My mom saw one that helped her conceive my little sister in her 40s (she remarried).
 
Is there a reason why you are having these tests done so soon Dream? Sorry your doc was so impersonal. I find that is often the case unfortunately.
 
Littlemiller - I don’t want to get your hopes up in case you don’t get your bfp, but I am feeling / felt just like you and I just got my bfp. 7dpo lower back pain, twinges in my pelvic area in the pm. 8 dpo slightly crampy. That afternoon I started to feel light headed, shaky and just an icky feeling in my stomach. 9 dpo shadow on test that turned to light line in the pm. Now I just feel icky all day long which includes that lump feeling in my throat that i want to swallow. It’s so much stronger and earlier than with DS and def my mc pregnancy so I’m hopeful this is a sticky bean. Fx for you!
 
Belle - I'm an impatient eager beaver. lol and although I note our official TTC start date as April, we were NTNP since September 2016...so our 6 months feels more like over a year. I'm fortunate enough to live in a country where these initial scans/tests are covered so i'm starting the process.
