Our journeys to baby #2

[FTale]

Lilac: CONGRATS!!! HH9!!


Divi: What a pile of crap. I can't stand ppl like that. She needs to get into a different field where her attitude and lack of fertility knowledge doesn't matter. Yes, please go to a private doctor and spend the money with ppl trained to listen. I'm so sorry you have to but it will be better than what that lady was offerin'.

 

[LilacPetal]

Divi I'm sorry your appointment went so poorly

 

[FTale]

Lilac: How are you feeling? What did you do differently this cycle? I know before it was so hard to get a good bd time in. When do you have appts?

 

[LilacPetal]

I'm not feeling too bad yet, which I'm thankful for but of course symptoms are always reassuring! Mostly it's fatigue, food aversions and insomnia
So this cycle we were trying SMEP but instead we ended up BD on CD 8, 10, 12, 13, and kind of on CD 14 (DH got a cramp and only partially finished? lol). I O'd CD 15 (which is late for me). We didn't BD again until CD 19, so I don't think that one was helpful.
Strangely, I think having alcohol helps me conceive... I'm not really a drinker, I don't care for the taste usually, but I think it really helps me to relax around ovulation. I don't know for sure but that seems to be kind of a pattern :/

I also was slacking off of my "diet" and I wasn't feeling great so I recommited to eating gluten free this cycle and I feel much better!

Just a side note, I *think* I had some implantation pain at 5dpo.

How long of a break are you taking Ftale??

 

[LilacPetal]

Oh! And my first appointment is supposed to be on April 17th (7+6) but I also just got scheduled for an US on April 10th (6+6) I think because my doubling time on my HCG was 36hrs this week... I'm not sure how to feel about it. It's always nice to check on the baby but I'm not sure this one is necessary :/

 

[FTale]

Lilac: 36 hours is a good time for beta to double. Not sure why the double scan. But still early so bean should be ok to take an extra scan. Either way FX for some good scans.

haha..alcohol..heheh I guess it did the trick. And I did giggle about your hubby getting a cramp..sorry It was just the horrible mental imagine I got..hahah sorry getting it again. Usually mine gets a leg cramp out of no where without bding. I hope it went away fast

As far as I can tell we can't do it on our own. Praying and going about it naturally until we see a specialist in May. Not as urgent as it has been in the past. I'm tuckered out and mostly quizzical at if its even possible.

I actually loathe the thought of even looking at an hpt...of my own of course. I'll eye google anyone else's in a heart beat.

Oh, and good go on going gluten free. It really does help the tummy.

Congratulations Lilac! I hope you have lovely sticky little bean.

Divi I am sorry the appointment didn't go well. When we were under the FS when trying for DS our problem wasnt necessarily getting pg it was staying pg. But our fs was really supportive. Sent us for a bunch of run of the mill fertility tests, which all came back fine, and was sorry that he couldn't do more. He said that if I had another mc then he would refer me to a different unit. Even if there isn't a lot they can do for you they should still be supportive. And a loss at any stage of pg is a loss. Hope you get the help you need and fx you get a sticky bean soon!

Ftale good luck for May! I hope it goes well for you and you get some answers.

Afm af is due tuesday. Ive got really sore boobs and feeling tired but I have been putting in a lot of hours at work recently. Thursday last week would of been my due date from the loss I had in July so that was tough. But I just hope I get a sticky little one soon. I really want DS to have a little brother or sister.

 

[FTale]

Flou: Thank you for the well wishes. May seems so far away but plenty of time to heal too.

I'm sorry you had a rough one last week. Praying AF stays away Tuesday and you get a BFP

 

[DiviniumLiv]

Thanks everyone. Don't really know what's up with my body this cycle, but it took more than a week for my temp to go down to pre ov levels. Normally it drops same day as af shows up and then goes down a bit more. I'm currently on cd 11 and it only dropped down yesterday. Well, I can only hope that this time different means something good.

 

[FTale]

Div: I always look for some thing different so I agree!! FX you get a clear O shift soon

 

[flou]

AF arrived on time so on to the next month. DS turned 3 on Tuesday and I am busy preparing for a party for him on Saturday. Just close friends and family. Keeps my mind of ttc anyway!

Divi good luck this cycle. Fx the difference means something positive.

 

[FTale]

Flou: I hope the party was a success. And a knocked out birthday boy at bedtime is proof enough.

How is everyone doing?

I'm doing my usual. Just about mid tww. Its funny how you want it to go fast but when testing time gets here you want it to slow down so you can have more time..lol I usually get like that when I see bfns and I think its till early but then early turns into 13dpo and I should stop squinting at tests but I don't.

 

[DiviniumLiv]

I am approx 3 dpo today, but it seems to be a slow rise of bbt. So far not much symptoms, the only thing I feel as if my uterus is "heavy" or something like that. Am still feeling really frisky, which isn't like me. But I guess my body just have "spring feelings". Love that it's getting warmer and I really like the warmth of the sun.

 

[FTale]

Div: LOL...frisky and spring go together.
Don't worry about the slow rise. Normally my bbt doesn't really get going till after 3dpo.

Are you using any meds to ovulate? I'm not this cycle? Normally I don't have a very good rise without Clomid. So far so good though. FX

 

[mdscpa]

Divi - I too am having a slow rise which of course I myself don't want to see. But still lots of pregnant charts have the same pattern so no worries. About your chart, I think you're only 2 dpo today and you'll have your CH tomorrow. FX this cycle brings you a Christmas baby.

Your bbt is looking really good. I don't see the slow rise but I'm not use to any patterns you might be use to seeing.

How are you feeling?

 

[mdscpa]

I'm thinking FF is wrong and I o'ed Saturday (2dpo) so I may only be 5dpo today which makes our chances low. My usual pattern on the first TWW is always good with higher temp rise each day by more than .10 degree F. and not less than that. I've no complains with having a slow rise better than seeing dips but I'm hoping it continues and go over 98.40 for me to be optimistic.

I'm feeling ok despite feeling like my blood pressure is getting high for the past two days and getting bouts of backache. Boobs hurt so bad not even letting DS and DH touch them


How are you? Are you taking progesterone this time? Your chart looks promising. FX it stays that way and you get your soon.

 

[DiviniumLiv]

FTale: Haha, yeah I guess it does.

No, I'm not using any meds to ovulate. My period is regular and I haven't have any problems with ovulating before.


mcdspa - Thanks. I guess we'll just have to wait and see when FF gives me crosshairs. Still rising slow and no CH yet. But my bbt this month has been kind of weird so..

 

[mdscpa]

FX you get a rise tomorrow and FF finally gives you CH.
