Afternoon everyone!

Spent most of last night being horribly sick (no idea why or where it came from but I was watching OH chop peppers for dinner and my stomach just went "lol nope" and I ended up eating plain toast instead of my very yummy sounding fajitas...Boo)

Today I woke up, still nauseous and now I'm getting a little cluster of teeny spots on my chin.
Really, body?! -.-

SMA1588 - eeep!! Good luck, please keep us updated?

Spudtastic - love that name!! Sorry to hear about your MC, how are you doing?
I think I'm a late ovulator as well (if I actually do...!) so I'm really hoping you didn't miss it this month!

WoWndUp - I know how you feel! I know I can't take a test until the end of the month but my brain keeps saying "yeeeeeah but you could just...y'know....do one now..."
Trying to ignore it and it's not easy!!

 

[TwoTiels]

Gaine and Spudtastic- do you do anytning to try to track your ovulation, like bbt or opk's? They can be really helpful. Before I used BC I had a really predictable 28 day cycle. After stopping them, mine has ranged from 28-37 days. It's a different length every month. Anyway if your O is unpredictable it can help!
Wowndup- I expect the 1st or 2nd of sept as well. All I have is a 3 pack of FRER and since they're a bit pricey, lol, it's my motivation to just wait.

 

[Gaige]

TwoTiels - I track my BBT, CM and used ovulation tests this month. Got one positive ovulation test but my BBT is a bit all over the place.
My chart is in my signature if you want to check it out and see what you think

Actually I have a bit of an odd question for you ladies:
Does anyone else get really vivid dreams? I started getting them about CD18 and it's unusual for me to remember anything I dream - I can recall colors and if there was a song playing and sometimes the feeling the dream left me with but never the dream as a whole.
These have been vivid to the point of feeling incredibly real when I wake up.

 

[WoWndUp]

TwoTiels - I've stocked up on FRER too and am doing all I can to not pull one out every morning, you know...just in case?

Gaige - I have VERY vivid dreams. since I can remember, and usually I can recall them for a few seconds after I wake up but they just go away and all I remember is a strong feeling of happy/sad/fear/whatever it was about, but recently I remember more. it feels so real I sometimes have to check where I am when I wake up. hope you're having good dreams though

 

[Gaige]

See normally the only time I remember dreams fully is if they're really awful nightmares, otherwise I just get random bits and nothing else.
These though, they are so vivid I can remember everything. Thankfully they're good dreams...if not a little surreal.

 

[TwoTiels]

Gaige- not sure what to make of your chart! But then again I'm not a fertility expert I have vivid dreams but it's normal for me to have them. Is dreaming vividly some sort of pregnancy symptom?
Today's the wind down of 4 dpo and honestly I feel normal.
I so want to get pregnant soon cuz I hope to begin my masters next fall (2015) and want some uninterrupted mommy-baby time, especially those first few weeks.
Wowndup- One month when I didn't want to use a FRER I went to get the dollar store brands. It's satisfying to pee on something cheap when it's a disappointing negative rathern than knowing you spent 10$ on a pee lol.

 

[WoWndUp]

TwoTiels - I know what you mean! It's expensive for sure. I have the dollar store brand too but when (being hopeful) it's BFP I want to take more than one FRER to show off to the BF

Morning Ladies,

Sorry I have been MIA all weekend, crazy busy.

We just moved in to a new house (hopefully we will need the extra space for a bubs soon!)

Welcome to all the ladies that joined over the weekend. Look forward to being on this crazy journey together!

knobby and wowndup - you will love baby and bump this site pretty much got me through my first pregnancy. In fact the due date group that I was in for #1 still keeps in touch on the thread from Feb 2012!!

Spudtastic - good luck with ttc#2. I'm in that same boat. Would love to give DD a sibling

Gaige - I dunno...maybe some early symptoms? Eek so exciting.

For me this is the toughest week. Nothing really happening except finding out on Thursday if I did ovulate this month or not....next week has all the fun

*edited to say - wowndup - I just saw that you are from Cambridge...not to far from me, I am in Milton, but my fertility dr is in Hamilton! We are practically neighbours

 

[MolGold]

Hey ladies,
I am 28, TTC#1 cycle 8 .. I am 1 dpo and LP is 12 days which means AF is due 6th Sep - or not! Hoping to join you.. FX fr BFPs for all

I can't work my chart out at all I don't know if it's a pregnancy symptom or if my brain is so overloaded with everything that it's freaking out when I go to sleep!! Like I said, they're good dreams so I am not going to complain. I am writing them down though for something to look over at a later date. I quite like dream analysis and things like that so I'm oddly fascinated by it all.

Hey ladies,

Hi MolGold, welcome to the dreaded two week wait!
Fingers crossed for you!

**
Happy Monday, ladies!
I feel like utter hell this morning. My chest is killing me, my glands are up and I just wanna sleep for like, a week.
OH went out a bought sausages so he could make me a sausage sandwich as I've been wanting one for a couple of days now, bless him!

WhatToExpect - how did the move go? I hope you're getting settled in okay!

How is everyone doing today?

sorry you are feeling so down Gaige, hopefully feeling better soon

Move went well, pretty much settled...so exciting to think that the spare room will someday hold a baby...

Monday = uurgh

 

[littlemeorhim]

ok so here is mine. This is my 9th month TTC number 1. I am 27 husband is 34. Had an HSG last monday and am now about 3DPO. Keeping my fingers crossed.

And i must say - one thing i love about this site is there are women from all over the world on here and i think it is so cool to be able to interact with you all going through the same thing worlds apart!

 

[raelynn]

Hi ladies! Nothing new to report here. I'm at 5dpo and the only symptom so to speak is some dull cramping off and on but I'm on progesterone too so I'm guessing that is causing the cramping feeling. I thought I'd have no problem getting through this 2ww since I already have a little one around keeping me busy but it is just crawling by!

 

[whattoexpect]

hi littlemeorhim - it is really comforting to know that you are not alone, that many women go through the same struggle and that there are people that truly understand how you feel. Are you seeing an specialist? or ttc on your own?

raelynn, I hear you - chasing my toddler around keeps me busy for the most part, but its that pesky time all day at work that makes it hard to not obsess.

 

[knobby]

I am 3 dpo today. I know it is probably too early but I did feel pangs/small sporadic pains in my uterus very late last night - just left of midline (I ovulated from my left ovary) at pubic bone level. It was definitely noticeable.

I am not sure about vivid dreams being a pregnancy sign. I think it may be an old wives tale? I have always had vivid dreams and on occasion even have pregnancy/baby themed dreams that are insanely vivid. Like I swear I know what producing breast milk feels like because I dreamt I had a baby and my breasts were engorged and leaking milk.

 

[Domara]

5dpo today- have had a little cramping since My positive OPK on the 20th. Not sure what to think!

Anyone want to take a look at my chart? I'm new to charting and I think it might look good? https://fertilityfriend.com/home/4a8df1

 

[Tibbymomma]
