Still looking for our May Flowers...

Oh savvy, that is such a good strong line on 10dpo!!! Your little bean knew you had a short LP, so it made its way in there quickly so it could tell your body, Nope AF, it's my turn!! AF is most certainly not coming... Because you're pregnant! I'm ecstatic for you Hun!!!

 

[allisonmh]

Yay Savvy that's so exciting! I'm glad you were able to rearrange your schedule to go get the blood test!! That's actually darker than my FRER was at 14 dpo so I think you'll be just fine! : )

And Erin, I had some P left from the cycles before so when I got the BFP I started taking them then, just at a lower dose until they tested me. Even with what I was taking, it was still low, so they bumped me up to a higher dose again. I think they told me to stop them at 10 weeks but I was nervous so I continued a little longer. Lol

 

[savvysaver]

Thanks girls, I am at the lab now waiting for my turn. They couldn't order the p lab until the nurse calls with my blood results this afternoon. Also she said they will make sure the levels go up and get retested Saturday. The frer line makes me very hopeful!

 

[floridasian]

Beautiful line Savvy!! So excited for you! I was beginning to think that I was with a group of unlucky ladies with no BFP in months! LOL! I'm so happy things are finally starting to change around here!

 

[beaglemom]

That is so awesome! You didn't even need the specialist! I hope we are all soon to follow.

My OPK was definitely positive late last night at 11:30 PM and blaring positive this morning. I don't know what's going on with me. My temp was still high this morning. It was 98.08° the first time I took it. I didn't want to believe it as I was hiding under the covers and I was so hot I was sweating so I took it a second time and it was 97.9° so I recorded it as 97.9° otherwise my chart looks like I already ovulated on CD6. We BD'ed last night but I'm not sure if it's too late. This cycle is bust unfortunately.

So I have to tell you, Savvy. I was laying in bed this morning debating trying to get another half hour of sleep. Then I remembered you were taking a FRER this morning and hopped out of bed.

When I saw it, I teared up!! (Very HAPPY tears, not those bitter "why not me" tears that well up when that girl from high school puts yet another sonogram up on Facebook). I know you must be having such a mix of emotions right now, but just know that we are all thinking and/or praying for you. You're doing the best possible thing going to the labs and getting any help you may need...and I just know this is it for you!

Thank you Sarah, you really just made my day with that comment! Honestly I felt guilty posting my bfp..not because I didn't think you girls wouldn't be happy, but because I know how hard it is to see those bfp announcements. I know I feel the same way as you do about the bfp announcements here!

 

[savvysaver]

Thanks everyone! I am still in shock. I just got back from getting the labs done, I will hopefully have the results this afternoon. At least the labs should give me a better idea of how strong my hcg is, last time when I was late for AF my number was only in the 70's. I honestly feel so many emotions right now, I don't feel like myself at all and I am a bit worried about some cramping just because AF was suppose to start today. I have to laugh though, I am suppose to have a CT Scan of my abdomen for my GI doctor, I am very against the test and did not want to get it done, I figured the only way I wouldn't have to have the test done is if I got prego this month...seriously, I will do anything to get out of a test!

By the way, I watched the frer after I dipped it and the line popped up within the first minute, I waited the full 3 minutes before reading the test/taking picture. Not sure if that means anything, but I was surprised.

I am sorry, I really hope your temps are just messed up this month. It seems like I have been getting a + opk at night, then a + opk the following morning and then Oing the day after that. Fx'd that you haven't O'd yet, keep up the BDing!

 

[misaacs117]

Oh my goodness! Savvy is pregnant!! I am so excited for you! And what great timing; no RE! So crazy. I am sitting waiting on the ortho doctor smiling to myself I can't wait to be bump buddies!

 

[ERosePW]

I agree that its tough to see the FB stuff of girls announcing pregnancies or posting baby pics (especially when you know they probably only tried for a few months!). But it's so different here... I'm always SO happy when one of our girls gets their BFP. We've all put so much time, tears, and worry into this, that it is SO well-deserved when it comes! (not that the girls we know on a non-virtual basis don't deserve theirs too...they do! It's just different for this group. ). Plus, we've just established these bonds, ya know? I am SO happy for you savvy! I did the same thing as Sarah, lol! I closed my eyes to grab a few more minutes of sleep, and then thought of you, so I grabbed my phone off the nightstand and checked immediately. I totally feel like you are in the clear with this one savvy. Your BFP came so early, and the FRER has a really nice line, and like you said, it showed up in the first minute. I feel really good about this one deary!

 

[savvysaver]

Thanks Erin! I feel very positive about this bfp, especially with the frer so dark. I will post a report after I speak with the nurse.

Thanks girl! I kept saying to myself that this cycle would be excellent timing for a few reasons...now I am just hoping this one is a strong little bean that sticks. I would love to have a bump buddy!

 

[Suzy18]

OMG Savvy I'm so happy for you!!! I bet you almost feel like this isn't happening, like it's a dream or something. I think that's how I would feel after getting a BFN every month. This so great! And I'm so happy that one of our girls finally got a BFP! This is a good sign ladies
Savvy, the usual question: what did you do different this month? Any meds?
CONGRATULATIONS!!!

 

[prachipie]

Ahhh! Savvy, CONGRATS!!! So happy for you!!! Happy and healthy 9 months!!

 

[moni77]

Congrats Savvy!!!

Erin - love the plan!

Thanks Suzy, it is like a dream! I keep going in the bathroom to look at the frer to make sure the line is still there.

I did not do anything different this month, no meds, we followed SMEP like usual. I am looking forward to seeing lots of bfps here this cycle!

Not even preseed or vitamins? Sorry to be pushy... I just want to make sure if there is anything I can do that you did. Did you eat more veggies or fruit or something else? Anything at all that was different from your other cycles? Can you sense my despair. Sorry... Is the line still there?

Oops, yep we used preseed every BD! Love that stuff!
You are not pushy at all - I love helping out, I want everyone here to get a bfp!
