Softcups

[mybabystar]

Just checking if anyone has gotten a bfp lately? I'm still using the SC and hoping like crazy!

Doing exactly the same thing...came to find a BFP....but not yet... I am waiting too...until 9-10 November.... today I got a BFN, but only 9 DPO...too early I know.....but couldn't resist...

No BFP yet. Still hopeful.

I thought about reusing them. Don't know why I didn't. Hopefully I won't be needing them for ttc or af for a while.

I wish you don't need them for any reason the next nine months!

Just dropping in for an update....

SS 12DPO: Cramp-y. Gassy. Less Bloat-y. Feeling "wet" below te belt.

Stalk my chart!!! BFN!! I probably will wait to test again on Wed as that is when AF will be late... I am tooooo nervous!! Temps staying up, but are decreasing, which is keeping me nervous. My chart was possible Triphastic FF (Day 26) indicated until today's temp. Still missing a regular symptom of AF or BFP, sore bbs! Hope everyone's weekend is going well. I will jump right on here and update after I test soon.... Still creeping to the end of waiting... (that's tea) FXD!

Fingers crossed for you! Hoping for the best to happen!!!

Well softcups failed me!! Temp dropped this morning below coverline and has arrived now. Bang on Time. Didn't she have anything better to do today, seriously!?!? TTC break from now. Back to NTNP. The disappointment is too much knowing u've done everything right! I'd rather have a few mths of no expectations and try again in the new year.
Good luck ladies!!!

Sorry for AF....for the loss of your furbaby too...I have lost a dog and know how it feels... wish you better luck during your next try!

Aw Carly, sorry you're having a break, I've had 12 cycles of BFN's but can't give up trying, not yet anyway! Hopefully the clomid will do the trick!

Good luck MrsM, great to see your temp has gone back up! x

Same here...14th month....3rd on clomid....2nd with softcups... but can't give up trying....doctors find everything fine....but where is that BFP

 

[mybabyluv3]

Mybabystar, it will happen for you. I hope sooner than later. I'm 8 or 9dpo today too and also BFN. Not giving up all hope just yet. Like you said, it's still early.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Good luck on the clomid babystar, from what I've seen on here, most seem to get their BFP's within 4 or 5 months of the clomid, hope you get your BFP soon. And you babyluv. x

 

[MrsMM24]

Well... update:
SS 15DPO: Fatigued. Heavily Bloat-y. Gassy.

AFM...Stalk my chart!!! Losing any symptoms (well, except those that indicate AF coming) Trying to stay hopeful because... no ! Temps staying up, so I am not complaining. May try to test tomorrow if no AF tonight, just too nervous as I know that an irregular cycle now is due to the MC in July. It has only been 3 cycles so maybe things are not sorted out yet.... Still waiting... (that's tea) FXD!

 

[mybabystar]

Good sign that temps are still up! Fingers crossed!!!

 

[MrsMM24]

Thanks MYBABYSTAR, I hope that it means a BFP and nothing else!!! How are you holding up today?

SS 16DPO: Fatigued. Heavily Bloat-y. Gassy. Irritable. Nervous.

AFM...Stalk my chart!!! Trying to stay hopeful... no ! So far, longer cycle, and 1 day longer DPO.... Maybe testing Friday is it. After Fri, if BFN, then I am planning on making appt as after an MC, anything could happen... Temps staying up though. If you have read my journal, before MC you know my cycles use to be 3 days AF every other month with confirmed OV monthly. Maybe I am returning to this? Still waiting... (that's tea) FXD!

Stalking you MrsMM24! Your chart looks amazing this month! FX!!!

 

[fluterby429]

I'm rooting for you ladies. I did nothing this cycle except use the soft cups two days before O and on the day of O. I'm guessing on my O day too. I usually O same day every cycle unless on clomid. I just had too much going on to worry with it. I didn't even know what dpo I was until I made a post on here lol.

 

[mybabyluv3]

Well I'm out. Temp skyrocketed lastnight then took a deep plunge this morning. Weird it was high again the rest of the day. Spotting all throughout the day then tonight it's really here. It's only cd24!!!!

 

[MrsMM24]

So sorry that AF seems to be headed your way BABYLUC, hope next cycle is the one!

FLUTER, I hoped this was the one for you. Hopefully you will get another chance at it soon... GL

ASH, thanks for stalking, but I think that I am soon to be out of this chase.... Unsure of what's going on with my cycles at this point.... Thanks!

SS 17DPO:Heavily Bloat-y. Gassy. Irritable.

AFM...you can still stalk my chart, but... BFN!! I kinda figured a couple of days ago that the chances were slim, no sore bbs really did a trick on my hopefulness as with both previous PGs I had them and in fact is all I really ever get with PGs or AF. Still no but temps are declining so I expect her soon. The LP is still longer this month, my cycle is longer thus far as well, the first one after MC was 41 days, so, maybe that will be a positive thing next cycle... YES! I am going in for December! I did make an appt with my doc for a check up on things but that is in 2 weeks. Any good plans for you all this weekend? Waiting patiently for anything... (that's tea) FXD!

 

[mybabystar]

Mybabyluv3, I am sorry the got you... Let's hope that today will be counted as the first day of your pregnancy! CD24 is really early...

MrsMM24, let's hope she changes her mind last moment and leaves you alone...there is always hope until she appears!

Fluterby, it's the best thing not to know where exactly in your cycle you are...sometimes I tried to forget on purpose...even have managed to achieve it for the first week of the TWW...but during the second I always start to count...

 

[mybabyluv3]

Thanks girls but she's here in full force today. Hope things are looking better for you!!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Sorry AF got you mybabyluv.

MrsMM sorry no yet but maybe it's shy?!

x

 

[fluterby429]

So sorry mybabyluv

Babystar I'm trying real hard to not think about it at all really. If I'm out this month I cNt ttc in Nov so I'm hoping by Dec to have an appointment with an RE

 

[MrsMM24]

Hope things are still progressing well in here ladies...

AFM...Well, AF snuck in on me this weekend. She was roaring too. In fact, each one since MC has been progressively more rough. I am keeping my appt with my doc which is after Thanksgiving just to check things out as I haven't had an AF like that since I first got AF. I was put on BC to help that and regulate it. Not an option I am going for this time though so we shall see. Sorry that I was M.I.A on you all this weekend. The saddness that DW and I went through was rough and the internet was the last thing on my mind. As well, the cramps and flow was soooo very strong, I wasn't moving anyway. I am happy to say, that we have decided that we will try again regardless and move forwar dinto what looks like will be December! We just aren't to the point to take break yet. Since it is later, we will have some time to get the donations and shipments scheduled (you know I am a planner so I will start that work this week) and then we will get a few more tests ( have alot left as we wait to test) and get the ball rolling in a couple of weeks. Still alittle sad, but not as much and cramping has gone down quite a bit so, I am here! GL FXD! to you all in the TWW, and the act of Catch that Eggy!!!

 

[dodgegirl]

so sorry to hear MrsMM

your little bean is bound to come soon !!! we are here to support you !



As far as softcups go, when I TTC earlier this year, after insertion I put my behind up in the air on a few pillows and waited 30 mins. But since then, I've also heard that you aren't supposed to do that, that the swimmers will get to your cervix better if you just sit up normally ? Can someone clarify which way is best ??

 

[MrsMM24]

Hi Dodge, that is true, as to what I read. I mentioned to my fert specialist, and she said that either way they will get there with SCs as it hold into place. Basically, you can or don't have to. Legs in the air are definitely more so for those that DON'T use SCs as there is no barrier.... GL

 

[aidasmom]

have tried it and didnt get a BFP from that specific usage. however it is a good idea. why not....

 

[fluterby429]

Bummer MrsMM so sorry

AFM...BFN today at 10-11 dpo. I only tested because yesterday got a small bit of stringy bloody cm when I wiped.

 

[MrsPTTC]

I did a headstand this month! . I'll let you know if it worked though its looking doubtful x
