Still waiting for AF and drama for the house my husband and I are trying to buy!! I just want some resolution. .

When are you testing??

 

[highhopes2013]

Flou that is FAB news! Yay! So happy for you! Another bfp on your thread! FC for the rest of us xx

 

[Buttrflyl553]

Sorry about the drama callmeal. I remember those days last year when DH and I were buying a house!
No testing for me...AF came yesterday.

CallmeAl-- I'm about an hour north of Albany. It's funny I have yet to meet anyone who is close to me.

Buttrfly-- It is for sure. We did 3 more rounds of Clomid with IUI after that and nothing. It was very frustrating.

Thank you ladies you are all very kind. Wishing you all baby dust and safe & healthy pregnancy

 

[Buttrflyl553]

Cntrygrl- I live in ny as well but more south in the Hudson valley. I went to undergrad up north in Plattsburgh and have visited areas around it as well ( possibly close to where you are). I haven't seem anyone on here closer by until callmeal came onto this thread

 

[cntrygrl]

I was just down at Columbia Greene Community College the last 2 Fridays doing recruiting for a job we have going on down there.

 

[CallMeAL1982]

Wow, NY represent!

I STILL haven't gotten my period. I took another test this morning, negative of course. Is it possible that an early MC would have caused me to totally miss or seriously delay my period?

How's everyone else doing?

 

[MellyH]

I'm sorry I don't know, AL. Hopefully someone else can answer your question.

I had a really busy day yesterday and it seems to have caught up with me today, my hayfever is rotten so I am parked on the couch until I muster up the energy to go and buy some antihistamines!

 

[cntrygrl]

Callmeal-- Is there anyway you could've ovulated later than you thought?

 

[Buttrflyl553]

Cntrygrl I actually live in Dutchess county what do you do for work? Where are you in your cycle?

So sorry you are in limbo callmeal. I wish I had advice but I am not sure myself...I guess after a chemical or something like it your hormones could be off. Maybe call the doctor? Doesn't hurt to ask questions

Awwww sorry you are not feeling well melly! Hope you are well soon.

How are you feeling flou? I just realized you don't need your specialist appt which is great!
What about you mrsduck and itsawonder?
IVF soon highhopes!

I'm pretty bummed AF came because I completely convinced myself I was pregnant. I really need to stop doing that. Hopefully the rest of us get BFPs before 2014!

 

[cntrygrl]

Buttrfly-- I'm currently CD12. Using temping and OPK's. I run an office for a staffing agency. So place people in jobs, HR, reception. I'm a one woman show so I do the whole shabang.

 

[ItsAWonder]

Flou - CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! A BFP, how wonderful!!

Buttrfly - I am so sorry that AF came for you. How are you today?

Melly - hope you are starting to feel better

Highhopes - when is your IVF date?

AFM - had my NT scan. All went really well. I won't have my bloods for two weeks but the scan was so good the geneticist is not worried. My babes hands open and close, the NT is perfect, 10 fingers and toes, 4 chambers to the heart (which typically you can't see this early), organs working properly, three layers to the cord, to sides of the brain with proper division, nasal and jaw bone - it's all there, the correct size, and measuring one week ahead. He said they only change the due date if dates are ahead by 9 days or more so sticking with June 4.

We will start telling friends this week and told immediate and extended family last night.

 

[MellyH]

How was it telling the family?? What a special time.

 

[ItsAWonder]

How was it telling the family?? What a special time.

It was pretty amazing

 

[flou]

Callmeal im sorry the witch is playing games. Maybe you ovulated later than you thought.

Good luck for this cycle buttrfly! I hope you get a bfp soon.

Itsawonder im glad the scan went well. Finally being able to tell people must be so exciting.

AFM - we have told our parents and siblings. We did before and if it all goes wrong we've got some support. Also my Mum is helping keep me sane. I keep getting loads of watery clear discharge which has me running to the loo thinking AF is about to show. I didnt have this with the first pregnancy and my mum said she had it with me so hoping its a good sign. My bbs are quite sore and definitely bigger. I feel as if I have fake ones! Ive also been having bloating and constipation which i had before and today i felt sick all day. Not sure if its morning sickness or just the effects of the bloating etc. I'm just so scared about going through a mc again. But im just trying to take each day as it comes. 5 weeks + 1 today and just wanting it to be 12 weeks already! Got my first appointment with my gp next Monday.

 

[MrsDuck]

Itsawonder that's fantastic news I bet you are over the moon

Flou I had that too, all is going to be fine this time, 12 weeks will be here before you know it

 

[ItsAWonder]

Flou - I had that as well and believe it's a good sign. Mrs. Duck is right. 12 weeks will come fast!

 

[MellyH]

Think about it, ItsaWonder and MrsDuck were just getting their BFPs like yesterday and now they're 12 weeks and 18 weeks! It will be here soon.
