Hi everyone!

Dew- sorry about bfn and AF creeping on Good thing about the testing though. May as well, right? Have they mentioned clomid at all to you and do you think you'd ever want to try anything like that?

Sarah- that temp rise looks good! Hope it stays! How come you need to continue bd every other day once you've already ovulated?

Cat- looks like fuN! I would have had to be awake at 2 am here for me to see the royal wedding, and I sure didn't stay awake for that! I have heard it was good though....

Preethi- cute bump! Its like mine, a little square lookin right now. I can kind of jiggle mine though so don't count it as real bump yet. I am thinking real bump wont jiggle!

Huggles- glad you are doing so well that you haven't that much to report. Sometimes no news is good news, right!

I had to go to the doc today unexpectedly. I walked my daughter to school this morning and felt a gush of fluid and some cramping. I was pretty wet feeling and checked when I got home and was not blood (whew!). But was watery so when I called they said go get amnio test to see if im leaking. Which would be a very bad case. So she checked and no amniotic fluid is leaking right now and listened to baby (which I do constantly) but was nice to have a doctor hear it and determine things seem fine. She said if our uterus is nearing belly button around now they are happy ad mine is at my belly button now so all seems well. They are running a test on my urine for bladder infection cuz i said the crampy is sort of feeling like my bladder. So that, we will see about but yay to not leaking amniotic fluid yet. She did say there was a bit of brown mucous near cervix but could be from all my old spotting? Im like, what, it just hangs out in there? Idk, that part scared me cuz i havent spotted for a while and don't want any blood or brown up there but not much I can do about that. As of today, im all ok!

Sorry so long, its been a rough day. I just finally ate my very first morsel of food at 2:30 in the afternoon! Bean was not happy!

 

[nypage1981]

Oh, and another thing. I started to cry a little bit in the office because she told me the rush of fluid was probably my bladder letting go?!?!? Ummm, so are you saying I peed? Yep, thats what she was saying. Obviously not 100% but she said thats likely what it was. So I teared up because no woman wants to be told she leaked pee at 15 weeks. Its not even begun yet and omg.....

hi everyone

dew: sorry to hear that....of course you are not out till AF actually arrives, but at least you are expecting that its coming and not having that horrible waiting game. you know Im so used to not being pregnant that every month I just assume I am not, so will be totally floored when it happens. I find its much easier for my sanity to just think it hasnt happened. it wont be long till you get another chance to try, Im amazed at how quickly the time has gone for me this cycle. and great that you are getting the tests, might as well as there could be something simple or nothing at all.
have a lovely time in your jacuzzi tub

mummycat: omg I think that is a cutest photo Ive ever seen!!!!

ny: remember how I was going to BD all month long every other night just incase I ovulate later, and you agreed saying you ovulated later than you thought? so I was going to do that, but its pretty clear by temps I have ovulated but I still want to try a little...usually we dont at all around this time. and wow that was a scare, glad to hear that everything is ok. and she thought it was pee? wouldnt it have smelt a little? not that my pee smells but you know what I mean.
Im wishing october comes soon for you!

my family has booked their flights over for end of august so Im soooooo happy...its my mum, my sister and her husband and my neices (age 12 and 16). my excitement from that overshadows any of the TTC stuff, and I really hope to plan a little trip if we can afford it.

Ive also stepped up the exercise, when we had that warm spell the other week I panicked at the thought of summer clothes and my flabby white skin on show!!!! I also would like to lose some before any fertility treatments, as I think they would be more effective. I have 25 pounds to lose to be back into my ideal BMI for height so thats my goal before getting help.

 

[flyingduster]

flying you only BDd on the day of ovulation and got your bfp?!!

haha. Yup. Freaky hu!? For all the work so many put into BDing before O and after and everything, and our timing barely scraped in and still worked. DH is rather proud of his lil men... lol!!!

I'd not worry about BDing more now hun. You got a smiley, and your temps CLEARLY say you've already O'd, even if it was different to what FF says, you have O'd now I'd say, look at how the temps are rocketing up!!! You've done it hun, relax and enjoy the TWW, BD when you want to but don't push for every other night now I don't think...


Preethi, omg your bump is gorgeous!!! How CUTE! I'm poking my flabby bits wishing they had a nice smooth bump too! lol. And YAAAAAAAAAAYYYY for 2nd tri fully, totally and unarguably! CONGRATS HUN!!!!


Dew, I'm sorry you got a BFN and spotting... Onwards and upwards though aey!


ny! omg! How freaky!!!! I'm glad things are still all ok in there, but still....!!! eep!






AFM, I'm going to see the midwife in 1 hour! I'm taking my camera to record the heartbeat! lol. So excited!!! I'm also hoping we can book in my next scan (the anatomy one at 18-20 weeks) while we're booking in all her next appointments too. Will share more when I'm home again.

oh yes I forgot it tonight my time, good luck cant wait to hear all about it!!

 

[nypage1981]

Sarah- yea I figured pee would be different and I totally think this was watery discharge so im not very reassured......i wish it was october. I seriously like got hives today im so nervous. I cant take all this stress about the damn pregnancy anymore!

Yes, I remember we thought you should BD later....however, I do think you've done it! Now let that egg and spermie meet, fall in love, and make a baby I so hope thats what is happening right now. Of course, BD doesn't hurt! So have at it! Just in case.

Flying- good luck!

 

[sarahincanada]

i just realized my period is due mothers day (mothers day is may 8 here in canada)
imagine getting a bfp mothers day, doubt I will be that lucky

 

[nypage1981]

Oh my that would be so nice wouldnt it sarah! Although, you will probably test before then, huh.

Oh, and doc just called back and my urine test was borderline for the quick test, so they need to run it to further testing I guess.....I find out monday if i've got a bladder infection. Im kinda nervous...ive never had one before!

I usually do one test around the 10/11 dpo to see whats going on, not sure if I will this time, depends how anxious I am.
Im only guessing its Sunday, last cycles were only 27/28 days but my ovulation was later this month and so the ticker worked it out to sunday
oooh good luck on monday, never had one of those either

 

[nypage1981]

I have fingers crossed for you!

 

[flyingduster]

omg! I'm still crying... there's a BABY IN THERE!!!! I HEARD IT!!! lol. I guess if you've got a doppler and hear it fairly often it'd be different, but this was the first time I've ever heard the babies heartbeat, and yes I was all teary over it. It's alive and well and omg I'm pregnant! (lol)

I peed on a stick (all normal) and checked my blood pressure (fine) and had a good chat. She gave me the form to book my next scan in and the book with all my maternity notes in it to bring along to all appointments. Also made our next appointment and she's happy to do a Saturday morning regularly which is great for me who works full time! lol.

The video is just a video of the wall of the hospital room (they had to move us from their regular room to a normal hospital ward room cos they're re-doing the floors!) as I wasn't trying to get a picture of anything, just recorded the sound for hubby!

omg thats so amazing!!!
just such a miracle
and I loved hearing the new zealand accents, so weird that you are across the other side of the world and we are sharing your journey

 

[flyingduster]

hahaha! Well my midwife is English so her accent isn't at all NZ (though it's not totally English any more either), and you only hear mine briefly... lol!

 

[nypage1981]

Oh yay flying! What is the heart rate? That's amazing and I sure take for granted hearing it each day that I forget how it is not to hear it! It's so cute.

 

[flyingduster]

Umm, think it was 160? Can't remember, wasn't really paying attention to the speed she said, was too busy trying to soak in the brief glimpse of life inside me... lol

 

[NDH]

Flying - how awesome!

Sarah - I hope AF stays away on mother's day.

Dew - It's good you're proceeding with the hormone checks.

 

[Dew]

Flying: that's crazy awesome Wow!

NY: sorry for the little incident Hope your other tests turn out fine.

NDH: it's sad you couldn't get that place, may be something better is waiting for you, good luck

NY: I really don't know the exact purpose of Clomid so wouldn't know if I can benefit from it in any way. My cycles are very regular 25-26 days and I ovulate every month about the same day-11 or 12 dpo so luteal phase is also about 13-15 dpo. My BBT charts always had perfect biphasic pattern, since I could get pregnant once so my tubes are not blocked either so I don't know what else could be wrong. Of course I have a fibroid which doctors say isn't going to interfere in conceiving due to it's location and my uterus is retroverted (tilted backwards) which I have read might delay chances of conception. Guess I will know more about my body after Day 3 hormone tests. Glad I got that scheduled, the thought was lingering in my head and then I read your post yesterday asking me for the same so went ahead and scheduled it....thanks for help in making the decision

Sarah, I'll LOVE it if you could be mommy on May 8th, it's Mother's day here in the US too

 

[Dew]

Mummy: just saw Lottie's picture...she is super cute so adorable Thanks for sharing the pic

 

[nypage1981]

Dew, I'm glad I could help you make a decision I also have tilted uterus pretty bad. I researched it and seems that position of bd really matters in this case. Certain positions allow for sperm to get to tilted uterus easier. I think this test you are doing will be good because pregnancy and, of course, miscarriage can change or mess up hormones. I hope not, but least you will know.
