Sticking Together Until We All Get BFP's!!!!

[Megamegan]

Daphne I hope you feel better soon and the docs figure out what is going on!

Fiza, I agree with Daphne- probably best to wait... I am very regular with my periods but I even had one or two that were 2 days and it freaked me out too. So I understand. I know it's possible to be pregnant still, but if I were you, I'd try to move on to the next cycle and just test in about a week to be double sure. I know waiting is really hard, but the doctor most likely will not order a pregnancy test if you haven't had a positive one at home (at least in my case). I hope you get your BFP soon either way

 

[Megamegan]

Oh and don't listen to the doc about the stress thing. They don't know how stressed or not stressed you are, but EVERYONE sounds stressed when actually speaking to a doctor because you're trying to figure out what is wrong- so to them, it probably sounds like the whole world is a stress ball, lol. If you don't think you were stressed, it could have been just a random cycle, or it's also possible you'll bleed a little more (I've had that happen too where it stops and comes back!). It's confusing right? Ugh.

I have a lot of catching up to do! No real symptoms to report here other than yesterday I was getting out of the shower and accidentally stabbed myself with my thumbnail on my nipple when I was drying off and about died, & last night I rolled over and woke up because my boobs were so sore. This morning they're still pretty sore and sensitive. I just keep thinking it's way too early for symptoms though. Buuuut with my last BFP, I got it clearly at 8DPO. Hmmm... Still holding out to test until at least 12DPO but I'm feeling a bit out this cycle because I didn't have any EWCM and I felt pretty dry during my fertile period. Did use Preseed on CD15 though. We shall see! Welcome new people and FX'd for all of us!

Daphne - did the hsg hurt you?

Megan - where's your beta results?

Mary - everything ok?

An - congrats. Time flies!

It did more than my period cramps. Especially the second time they put the dye in. I bled also but enough for a pad.... All i can think of is how excruciating giving birth is. So i have to be strong for this one....

I'm terrified of giving birth

Giving birth isn't that bad, well everyone is different but I'm definitely not nervous to go through it again.

I think I'll be discharged today! I can wiggle one toe. No clue about the rash. Bp still in the 130s and pulse still over 105.

Welcome new ladies. If you want to read my story check out my blog, link in signature.

I think I might be unexpectedly in the tww. I had those positive opk's on Tuesday and cramping before surgery on Wednesday. After entering in my temps of has me at 3dpo. We were able to do it twice Saturday, once Sunday, and once on Tuesday afternoon. I'm kind of hoping that some male sperm were up there when the eggy popped (team boy). Guess we shall see in about 12 days

Good luck! Fx'd for you! How are you feeling now? Hope your heart rate goes back to normal soon, if it's not already. Do you have a follow-up appointment?

 

[Megamegan]

Chelsealynn, I barely had any EWCM this cycle during ovulation. Like I thought I had maybe a tiny bit when I wiped once, so I wrote that down, but otherwise nothing, and I usually get globs of it. Doesn't matter as long as there's enough fertile CM on the inside (could just be watery and doesn't come out) to carry that sperm

ohh thank you so much megamegan..I feel so much better now..so its better I move on and be positive about this cycle..thanks a ton hun..
chelsea fxd for you!!

Yes Fiza as much as I want to see you pregnant, I also don't want you to be anxious over a short AF like this- better to just start fresh I think Sometimes it's good to get to a new cycle, and even better, when you do get your BFP, you most likely won't bleed at all (or just a light spotting) and will not be confused about missing AF or not

 

[aidensmommy1]

Do you people think that i need to get a beta hcg done. Just incase...Iam really going crazy

If you think it'll make u feel better, it wont hurt. My docs are great about seeing me whenever but as Megan said, some docs wont do it without a good reason.
The last few months I had veryyyy lights AFs so I would test 5 days after JUST INCASE but it was just a light AF. I'm not sure what from, for me, it may have been stress but there's many things that can cause a light AF. I too think ur probably on a new cycle, esp if no BFP yet. I actually just had my first REAL AF in almost a yr this cycle! I have a blocked tube so I'm hoping its a good sign for me. But yea, if u had even just a light flow for 2 days and no BFP yet, odds are it was most likely AF but, anything is possible! So if you feel that strongly and its really bothering you, it wouldn't hurt to ask for the blood test just to ease ur mind, u know? Ive had to have the docs ease my mind one of my cycles when I bled the least because I have a extremely high risk for ectopic so if I feel weird I like to be sure. Either way, I hope you see a BFP very soon! Id def start looking at it as a new cycle & make.sure u BD and such good luck!!

 

[aidensmommy1]

I was a little late with my response fiza lol.

 

[MolGold]

How are you ladies, anyone in TWW?
Jess I hope you're feeling well now. FX for your lucky cycle!

 

[mdscpa]

Got home already and GP told me to rest. Bloodworks are all ok. Findings, i got vertigo.... Thinking this was triggered by all the medicines i'm taking..... She gave me medicines for that as well....

My OB prescribed me Fostimon 75iu (FSH). Need to take them today then tomorrow and see what my 3rd scan will be on CD13. I hope my follies get to the right size by then, i don't want to take these kind of medication again. But if this is what I need to be pregnant guess i have to endure them all. She told me if follies are at the right size she will give me trigger shots and BD once a day 24 hours after the shot.

FIZA123, i'm currently on CD11 today.

Yes you are right, this might be just a weird af and i guess it could be coz i just turned thirty and some harmones must be playing games on my body.lol
So Iam not going to be sad. And move on to the next cycle
Thank you soooo much..
Loads of love

mdscpa..I have had my af which was vshort..abt 2 days..but still hav backache and leg pain..
going by old cycle I should be on cd 34 and if its a new cycle then am on cd 5..all hpt negative..doc doesnt think I need beta hcg..says it is coz of stress. .but the fact is am not taking any stress..infact I was v v relaxed this month..as I took a break from work..cant really understand what is going on

I think that you might not feel like you are stressed, but your lighter than normal period is definitely stressing you out. I have 2 day periods every month, so I don't find it to be confusing at all.

How are you ladies, anyone in TWW?
Jess I hope you're feeling well now. FX for your lucky cycle!

Thanks. I'm still in a good deal of pain and had a breakdown yesterday thinking that they probably thought I was faking being in so much pain. My foot is still partially asleep too.

I'm so confused. Why did your follicles and lining decrease?

 

[mdscpa]

I'm so confused. Why did your follicles and lining decrease?

I asked the same thing i thought they decreased from my previous scan. They told me to take the first number as the measurement of follies.

Left: from 11x8mm to 14x11mm - (3mm growth after 2 days)
Right: from 10x9mm to 12x8mm - (2mm growth after 2 days)

She (radiologist) said my lining is still good and nothing to worry about. I think i read clomid makes your lining thin..... She also said, at this point it is good i have two follies growing and better that's it's from different sides. Coz there's a chance they will both grow. But she made sure that the one from left is much better. We'll go on my 3rd and hopefully last scan on CD13. Hope both of them get to the ideal size and they'll have me triggered.

 

[mdscpa]

Great chart so far Jess!!!!! FX this is your month...... And you'll have your baby to carry by March......

Hey ladies!
Sorry I've been MIA for a few days. I took the rest of my vacation to relax, enjoy pride weekend here in our city, and not obsess.

I have a call into my doctor, who I amazing at not doing anything until you are 12 weeks along, but hoping with my history of a m/c and crazy ass long cycles she'll find a way to make an exception.

My bleeding has, for the most part, stopped. It's light spotting now and I've noticed it only happens when I'm up doing things. I bled heavily for a day or so after doing a lot of yardwork and picking up and running after kids at our pride picnic. I only had one instance of bad cramps, and now have no cramps at all. The only symptom I've seemed to have lost is my sore bbs. I'm chalking that up to already having humongous knockers to begin with so they don't need to grow as much (I know that has NOTHING to do with it, but it makes me feel better haha).

Still nauseous, still exhausted, crazy dreams are back, thirsty and bloated and I have an intense need of a watermelon slushie.

Praying for a miracle at this point. It's been a week since my heavy bleeding stopped and my tests still show a quick strong positive (I think they're even getting darker). So there's where I'm at. Maybe some long breakthrough bleeding? Maybe an SCH? Maybe multiples? I don't know. Dads and I are being cautiously optimistic. I just wish I could enjoy my pregnancy like all those ladies you see on commercials, lmao.

Hope everyone has an amazing day! Lots of happy thoughts and baby dust.

Love
Jill

Daphne have you considered trying femara? I know you wanted the clomid because it worked before. But it may be worth a shot.

 

[Jrepp]

So I just read taking charge of your fertility by Toni weshler. It is a great book for people that are just starting ttc, and trying to figure out temping. It goes really into all of the details on each aspect of charting. I personally have been charting for a while and found that the information just confirmed what I already know about charting and whatnot. Highly recommended if you haven't been temping or if you just started

 

[chelsealynnb]

Took an internet cheapie (BFN, of course) and an OPK that turned out close to positive. Confusion.....

Ps) not testing again until 12DPO with a digi...I hate squinting at imaginary lines!!
