Everything crossed, Penguin! 5 weeks is too early for a heartbeat. My doc says he's impressed when he sees a heartbeat at 6 weeks on the dot.

 

[Kuawen]

Fingers crossed so tight for you, Penguin!

 

[RedRose19]

ive everything crossed for you penguin!!

so ive not been great at taking the opks, been taking them different times of the day and def not every day, but 2 days ago i took my opk very late around 11pm and it was nearly positive but the next day (yesterday) it was much lighter so i assumed no ovulation but yesterday i had major cramps i thought af was gonna show, and i even had a small bit of pink cm so wondering if i ovulated! last time i had these bad ov pains i got preggo with jamie i though af was on its way so made dh dtd with me to hurry her up as was in agony same story last night. i have a feeling if id taken my opk earlier i would of been positive but i will keep up the opks just incase

I would bet anything that you did indeed ovulate! Yay!! Hope you get that bfp in two weeks .

 

[Mrs. and Mrs.]

It's so easy to miss an ovulation on those stupid pee tests. They can change in a matter of hours. If you had one positive one, then most likely what you felt was ovulation!

Yippee!!!!

I just got put on progesterone today to induce my next cycle. Still drinking my spearmint!!! I've been pretty good about getting at least two cups a day, but i'm re-using tea bags. Normally I get three cups a day with two fresh tea bags. My skin is still looking good! I just have one big painful zit on my neck? I never ever get zits there... super odd.

Any who, I hope you're all having a great day! It's 5:55 AM here in Kansas and I'm getting ready to go watch a friends toddler while he goes to parent teacher conferences.

 

[Penguin20]

Thank you ladies just excited and worried at the same time but think that's normal in early pregnancy

Mr and mrs - Glad the tea is working

redrose - hope you ovulated

 

[rebeccalouise]

Glad its working redrose and fx you ovulated rebecca

Laura - Scan went well, we saw the sac and yolk and she said that she very happy but didn't see a heartbeat so going back in on Monday to see if they can see one, we think i'm 5 weeks so she said it could be to early and hopefully they see something Monday when i should be 6 weeks, got my fingers crossed we will see the heartbeat

hope you ovulate soon

thank you! have my fx for you penguin. it'll be 3 weeks this weekend since my last period, so it's looking positive for my second "normal" cycle! however, I've seen 4 pregnancy anouncements on facebook tonight, so I'm feeling slightly down right now.. does anyone ever feel like it's never going to happen for them? or is that just me? x

 

[laurac1988]

I worry that I'll never have kids, but I guess we have to take each day as it comes

 

[Kuawen]

I often struggle with those feelings, like I have more chance of randomly levitating than growing another human being within my body I look forward to the day that I'm proven wrong.

I feel this way, ive been trying for baby two since jamie was 6 months... hes 3 in june! I still am waiting to see a fertility specialist!
I just try remain positive and think my bodys done it once and it will do it again!
Weather trying for baby 1 2 or 5 long term trying to conceive is so hard because you just want it now, that not knowing when it will happen is hard. My sils have both been pregnant and had babies in the time ive been trying. my niece is 1.5 now lol and sil got pregnant the month I started trying so its hard to think so much time has gone by. But ive stopped thinking about trying for now concentrating on the tea and being healither and hopefully a miracle happens!

 

[Penguin20]

I don't want to be one of them women that go don't worry it will happen, relax as that used to really annoy me and because I been trying for 14 months I came to the point where I thought it never going to happen to me as I always had this feeling I would never get pregnant
I think it's a natural thing to feel if you been trying for so long but then taking tips of here like drinking spearmint tea, staying in bed longer, my oh took maca for a few days and here I am with a shock bfp as I thought I didn't ovulate and i'm praying it will be a sticky bean
I just want to say stay positive ladies and good luck.. I really hope it happens for all of you

 

[laurac1988]

The way I see it is that it WILL happen. Whether I have our baby, my wife does or we foster or adopt. We WILL have a family

 

[RedRose19]

I think supporting each other is the best thing we can do I have tk say when I was ttc my son so many people told me to relax I wanted to kill them, but soon as I did it happened, finding it hard to do it this time! But im hoping by concentrating on loosing weight it will help me relax.

Im feeling very nervous jamies got an appt with early intervention tuesday! He still isn't talking and a few things hes behind in so they have mentioned the possibility of autism, im hoping it's just a delayed learning from his birth but anyway I guess I have to wait and see

 

[GingerPanda]

I still feel like it will never happen for me! I think I'll keep believing it's impossible until the day I push a kid out. Guess I'm just to scarred by LTTTCARL.

I hope everyone here gets super sticky BFPs soon!


Redrose, good luck with Jamie!

 

[Fern81]

I worry that I'll never have kids, but I guess we have to take each day as it comes

I also feel like that, have been feeling that way for years. It's hectic. Like winning the lottery is more realistic. Unfortunately DH does not want to adopt :/.

 

[Fern81]

GL redrose xxxxxxxx thinking of you!

On a positive note, I finally found a shop that sells good quality herbs but it's not too expensive. Got a huge pack of loose leaf spearmint tea today. I've stripped my poor plants down and they are quite small still; so I will just give them some time to grow.

Cd13 and hostile cm for me!!! Urgh. I blame the clomid.

 

[Penguin20]

Good luck everyone
