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

[Jrepp]

Good luck jennuuh!

I just got a call from the nurse. The re thinks all of my pain is from the balloon, and they want to take it out today. My sister is picking me up on her lunch break and dropping me off at the hospital and they are going to remove it. I'm still going to try to get more Percocet though and I still go back Wednesday for a post op appointment with my pelvic pain doctor and apparently a 3d utlrasound on May 5th with the re to make sure everything is healed

oh good! I thought that was probably alot of ur pain..only because I remember how much it hurt to have a balloon clamping my uterus in place for just 20mins..i couldn't imagine having it in for weeks! I hope this helps u feel better now! Good luck hun!

Jrepp, I hope that eases some of the pain for you!

I'm at the lab right now getting my blood drawn. No more line guessing for me! I just want a definite yes or no one way or the other!

 

[Jrepp]

How did you get them to agree to a blood test?

Edit: it's out. The doctor said I kept it in longer than most. Mine was in for 10 days, the average is 3 and they prefer 21. I can stop taking the antibiotics and the estradiol so my period should resume in a few weeks. I'm back to temping and opk's and all that jazz.

Here is a pic of the balloon. It was filled with 8ccs of saline, but the pic is only a third of the size that it was in me.

Well my doc said he wants me to start Progesterone as soon as I get pregnant to hopefully keep me from bleeding, so I called and said I've been getting faint positives and he gave me a standing order at the lab.

Still - I couldn't wait so I picked up a more expensive test (I know, I know shame on me for getting a blue dye but that store didn't have FRER!) anyway - I see a faint line! Wishing - can you tweak it?!

 

[chelsealynnb]

Well, I just called my doctor's office and my HCG level is exactly ZERO ZIP ZILCH NOTHING!!! Urgh!!! I'm so frustrated and have also come to the conclusion that Wondfo internet cheapies came strait from the depths of HELL and I'm never using them again!!!

I see it!!!


Oh wow, Jrepp!!! That is crazy. I wasn't sure what you were referring to but now I understand what the balloon is. Ugh, are you feeling better now?

 

[Wishing1010]

WTH, it's zero?! No freaking way!!! I can't believe that Chelsea.

WTH, it's zero?! No freaking way!!! I can't believe that Chelsea.

I know!! I was almost positive I was pregnant after taking this stupid Clear Blue!!! Wtf! I've never had false positives before and now I get all these?! Urgh! I'm never testing early again!

I'm sorry . Right Before I saw this post ibwas about to warn u about blue dye tests. If u ever plan to pay more for tests, def stick w frer! (i know u said the store didnt have any ) They may show an indent sorta line at times but it doesn't have color so its obv its not a positive. Frer is pretty much the only brand I will actually believe. I'm still soo sorry. I now def know that hating the wondfos was a good choice. I got real lucky with an awesome batch but ive seen TOO MANY convincing evaps JUST this cycle. Its ridiculous. I'm sorry to u and all the other ladies who had these tests fool them . The blue dye test is to be expected. The dye almost always leaves a little tiny bit of a line behind, sadly. Ive even had one with a dark line. Its cruel. I hope u get ur bfp soon hun

 

[aidensmommy1]

Jrepp, I'm happy its out! And ur back in the temping business I'm going to remain temping so when I'm ready I am still caught up with my cycles but I already feel alot.more relaxed not thinking about when I'm going to O and all that norm ttc stuff. I bet ur already feeling alot less pressure with the balloon removed... I hope anyways!

 

[aidensmommy1]

Mary, you're right, last cycle I may have O'd a day sooner making my LP 14 days (it's actually 13 right now), meaning my period could be due today. Yes I do have a real fever and it sucks. I have hope but no BFP yet makes me think it's a slim chance. I also have zero AF cramps today, I just feel ill, basically none of this feels normal. It might all hit me at once this evening. I'll keep you guys posted. About to take off on my first flight. So glad I made it through the 1.5 hour drive to Laguardia. Feeling much less sick and had coffee and half a bagel. Next time I post I will be in Arizona!

I hope u have a safe trip and feel better! That stinks u have a fever right when ur going on tour! . I hope u feel better asap or at least get a bfp out of it! FX!

 

[Wishing1010]

I am still holding out hope for you girls! FX you get surprise bfp's!!!!

Mary - I am 100% convinced the balloon was not the issue as I am still in a lot of pain. Actually in more pain now that the balloon was removed. The doctor gave me 20 more Percocet to get me through to Wednesday and my normal pelvic pain doctor can give me more when I see her for my post op visit. But at least the contraption is out and my vagina doesn't have a billion things going on in it.

Chelsea - I am sorry your beta was at 0! Did you use the wondfo opk's as well or just the hpts? I wonder if half of them are good and half are bad. I started the wondfo opk's today (even though I took the estrogen this morning) because I have to chart again so the re knows what's going on.

 

[Megamegan]

Jess- yay for getting balloon out, possibly there is still pain from removing it? Atleast they are giving you Percocet. Ugh. Good luck :/

Chelsea- so sorry your levels were 0!! That sucks. Yeah I think the best thing all of us can really learn from all this crap is that the best thing to do is wait for a late period. Mine is late and I'm still not testing positive so who knows.

Afm- arrived in AZ, no AF (feels wet down there but no blood), and no cramps still, still feel like I have the flu, nausea and fever, and I've been taking Tylenol and Dramamine today. So I'm sure I would feel much worse if I hadn't taken those things. Will update if AF shows.

I'm so sorry ur in more pain! What the heck! I hope the problem can be solved ASAP!! I know it'll be solved but it just needs to happen already! Its insane it just feels worse. I bet its pain just on the inside.of ur uterus from having that GIANT thing removed in surgery! The lining/inside of ur uterus is probably still healing and that may be one reason why you have to wait to try..? Ugh get better Jessica! This has been a horrible month! FX everything gets better from here on out!

signs always have to be soo confusing huh?! Some women on here get bfps after getting alot.of wet/watery CM but then others like me get wet/watery the day before/day AF shows her ugly face. It should be the same for all of us to make it easier to predict!! Lol . I hope your someone who gets it before a bfp! Estrogen is produced by progesterone in small amounts so I think that's what causes watery CM before a bfp but once again, before AF it happens alot because of the falling progesterone and the estrogen starting to filter back in ur body. I'm bored and figured id share the info I read in an article about watery or EWCM before AF or BFP lol. There was an article on it with a huge thread following it and pretty much every other person had dif experiences CM wise. I am kinda bored not focusing on ttc myself so I apologize for these long tutorials lol. Once aiden gets back home I won't have so much time on my hands! Lol and the weather is getting nice...im excited for the next couple months. Good luck Megan!!! The signs for AF and a BFP are identical alot of times but right now, u have more good signs than ever (especially a late period!) I hope you get to go.home to dh with an awesome surprise! Plus itd make my month seeing one of u girls get a bfp as well FX!!

I used the Wondfo OPKs, too. They seemed to work for me. I'll attach a pic of this cycle. Sorry to hear that your pain wasn't resolved

 

[Megamegan]

Yes Mary that's all so true... I know this CM could mean either AF or BFP! All I know is I am ridiculously sick. The time zone here is 3 hours earlier so with it being 9:30pm to my body, something is definitely up that AF is not here yet. I'm so tempted to keep testing and testing but something tells me it won't show up til 18dpo or later. I might give in along the way but temping should also give me a good idea of what's going on (unless being sick affects my temp, no clue WHY I am sick so I can't figure that one out!).

This is just torture!! I want to celebrate! But instead I have to perform all week (how?!!) and feel sick 24 hours a day. My coworkers here all know I'm TTC and late so they are being super supportive and I'm hoping we will get to celebrate later this week. If not, let's get this show on the road, aunt flo.

 

[aidensmommy1]

Good luck Megan! And I know, I hope u either get ur bfp & soon or if ur bodies just being wierd, just let AF show! It gets to that point like uhh Ok...whats going on here?! I'm feeling anxious for u! Missed AF is a very good sign. FX!
I do know travel/time change can have affect on the menstrual cycle but u just left today so Idk if it could be that. We obv know you are very sick and that didn't happen because of travel, that's for sure! I hope u and jrepp both feel better asap!
