Hope everyone has a happy hump day with lots of BDing lol...afm that wont be happening for a few days because the evil witch is giving me hell this cycle. Cant wait for her to leave and not come back lol.

 

[Lanfear333]

I will also not be doing any BDing this hump day. Got a stupid YI.

Hello, mind if I join this group? I'm on CD15 now so I will be testing around the 7th (if I can hold out that long). We have been TTC for 2 years and all tests have come back normal. This is my first month of Clomid (even though I ovulate on my own) and my bloodwork right after indicated good results. So I'm feeling hopeful but only time will tell!

I hate those! I had one back in May. I used the monistat 3 day and it wouldnt go away so I asked for an rx and it was cleared by the morning.
Hope yours goes away quick. They are no fun!

 

[Turtle0630]

Hi MG, welcome! So sorry about your lengthy struggle to conceive. I really hope the Clomid helps and that this is your cycle! I've got you added!

Lanfear, sorry to hear about your YI! I hope it clears up quickly for you!

Orion, I hope that flies away soon, and yes, doesn't come back!

Afm, I got a positive opk yesterday afternoon! Wahoo! We had already dtd on Monday, and of course did again yesterday. I'm thinking we'll do it one more time tonight and consider that our 3 days in a row (even though Monday was before the + opk). I tested again this morning and it was just *barely* lighter than the control line. I'm going to test again this afternoon, just to be sure. I'm guessing I either O'd late last night or more likely, will be O'ing today. I'll wait and see if I have any more O pains today and what my temps do! (I had a few twinges yesterday but if I get some stronger ones today I'll know it was really today instead). Either way, I'm at least almost in the tww!

 

[peachcheeks]

Oh yay Turtle!! Seeing a positive on a test is an awesome feeling, even OPKs!

 

[Bing28]

No humping for me either as still spotting and waaaayyyy too tired for that!

I had an awful nights sleep last night and feeling tired and miserable today. A nice soak in the bath and an early night is in order I think.

 

[mommasboys2]

Sheylee i ve been pg 5 times and 3/5 i didnt have any symptoms but i still get sad n anxious when i dont feel them during the tww!
I took baby aspirin until w12 with my dd. i also used fur but you ll need to do your research on that!

Datucker i know, i keep saying to myself its not possible to have symptoms this early on but i still want them!!!

Yoga girl get busy girl!!! Thanks, i think of my angels every single day, they re up there looking out for their brother n sister

Mommasboys2 we re also ttc #3! Can i ask which MTHFR mutation you have? I have the A type but my doc didnt even look into it even after my 3rd mc so i m still a little suspicious of it.

Hope everyones doing good girls, smile cause this might be the month we get out THB

Chistiana I do not remember exactly what type of MTHFR they said I had it was a lot of information to take it all at once lol. She prescribed me Metanx to take though bc my body does not process synthetic folic acid and b vitamins due to the mthfr. I am also on a daily baby aspirin as both blood disorders cause by blood to clot more than it shoild. I was also instructed once I get a positive test to come in that day so I can start a daily shot of Levoxan so hopefully I will not habe another mc. I am so sorry that you habe had to go through s many mc's! I would definitely ask them to look into it. Dotheu have you on any meds or will you have to take any meds once you get your BFP?

Hi ladies, what a supportive group. This is my first post....ever! Been reading posts for support for the last few months and finally decided to join.. Ttc for 6 mo.... Totally felt like this was our month, decided to take hpt today, cd24, 3 days before AF due, and got a BFN. Am I out this month? Not sure when I ovulated bc me and DH were on vaca in Hawaii and didn't want to worry about temps and tests since in paradise
Any hopeful stories?

 

[Mrs. Bach]

I'm going to be testing October 1st. This is our last attempt with TTC. I've been trying for over 5 years and PCOS has made it so difficult. We gave up all the hormone pills and decided to let it happen naturally if it will. I've been having odd symptoms for the last two weeks and I swear I ovulated on the 12th. So we'll see! Good luck to everyone!

 

[SashaM]

Hi all, testing for me will be October 5!!

 

[Turtle0630]

Welcome to all the new ladies! Happy to have you joining us, and good luck to you all!!!

LilRu, welcome to the boards for the first time! I absolutely love this site, and this testing thread! Everyone is so nice and supportive. And it's great to have a group of lovely women to obsess with, and talk about the embarrassing details with that nobody else in your life wants to hear about! I wouldn't say you're out yet for this month! You're never out until that dang witch arrives. Good luck!

Mrs. Bach, I'm sorry that you've had such a long, rough go of it. I really hope that this is your month, especially since it will be your last one trying! Good luck to you!!!

 

[chistiana]

Mommaboys2 i m not on anything yet but as soon as i get an bfp i am to start baby aspirin, progesterone, extra folic acid and steroids as my nk cell count came back on the high end (but not abnormally high) after my last mc. It sounds like we have the same type of mutation so i might give my doc a ring and ask about the meds you mentioned, thanks! I m sorry that you too have had to go through mcs, hopefully that was our share of this and we re done and over with them!

LilRu i only got my very very faint bfp at 14 dpo so you re definitely not out! Kmfx!

Hello to aaaallll the lovely ladies in here, hope this is the months for everyone!

 

[Rach87]

Chistiana I would definitely ask the doctor more about it so you can take every precaution possible to keep from havimg another mc. I know that the reason I have to take the levoxan is because I also have factor v leiden which is another clotting disorder along with the mthfr. From my understanding the factor v leiden causes blood clots in the placenta which cuts off the oxygen and nutrients to the baby. So therefore it causes slow fetal growth and ends in mc. The hope is that taking the baby asprin already will help with implantation and then when I get pregnant I will start the levoxan (injections of blood thinner) to keep blood clots from forming during pregnancy. I'm not sure that if you only have mthfr that it would be the same or if the baby asprin would be enough. Definitely something worth asking the doctor about and maybe more blood work to rule out any other possible blood disorders if they haven't tested you for all of them yet. Would love to know what you find out when you do talk with your doctor! Fx'd for you that you will have your healthy sticky bean this month!

So far I have learnt it's much harder than I thought for people to conceive when they are trying to even for people in their twenties there seems to be at least a little wait...it's so weird that we lived in fear of getting pregnant for so long...only now to find it isn't all that easy (for some). I have my fingers crossed for all of you, especially those that have been TTC for some time! Good luck and baby dust to you all!

 

[juscause]

Yay Turtle! Love those positives even on an OPK!

Welcome Lil! I would say you aren't out yet- sounds like it's still early.

Feeling a bit down over here. Still no temp rise two days after o. I'm thinking maybe I didn't this month, which would mean I am out already.
