Stopping BCP to TTC***Updates & Progress/Noted Changes Since Stopping BCP***24BFPs***

[CrazyCharlie2]

Danna I seriously have everything crossed for you!! And I think this will work! You've got this! It's your time!

Patience, you just have to be like me and count backwards from 14 days what your last CD would be and usually that's about when you O lol. Super scientific I know.

Rock Star, I would definitely push your Dr a bit and lay out your concerns. There is no reason they shouldn't give some help.

That's odd but great Danna, like you say take it! That's one good egg who will be waiting for those swimmers

Charlie I don't care when I ov once I get af, I could like you say count back & find out, for me I'd count 10 days I mean when I'm "late" sometimes it'll be cuz I O'ed late so testing is stupid I've decided the only way I can guarantee testing at the right time is by waiting till cd42, I ov between cd14-21 so that way it guarantees I test 1week late if I ov late. Haha like i'll ever make it that long without af I'm only at cd26 now how boring! For example I would have had af if i O'ed cd14, if not the rest is anyone's guess

Rockstar i was crazy the first year off bcp waiting to get help, I was still getting af each month but my lp is short and my period light which would suggest thin lining if you're like me there's a lot you can try, teas and vitamins, special diet etc, just be knowledgeable before you try something cuz the drs will say it's all on you if you get unwell from trying something "unofficial" I believe vitex is used to try and help people to ov, I myself used to drink fertilitea (yes that's the name lol) it helped regulate my ov which used to always be late but I can't get a hold of it any more if you have the cash I'm pretty sure acupuncture would help your cycle too if you go to the right person!

Turtle goes things your end? Is it bd time soon?

Being honest the idea of accupunture scares me a bit. But i have actually been thinking about starting vitex. I had taken it before and i remember seeing EWCM for the first time ever on it but i wasn't ttc then. I had just gotten off BCP and was trying to jump start my period. I shortly went back to the bcp. But i plan to pick up a bottle today and start taking them tomorrow.

Danna, that's fabulous news! What a whirlwind these last couple of days must have been for you!!! How did the trigger shot go last night? When will you actually inseminate? I'm assuming today? Eek, I can't wait to hear how it goes, good luck!!! That's amazing that it's free...I totally agree; knowing that, why not? I can't wait for your next update!

Charlie, I'm sorry that DH is having to have surgery so close to your fertile range (well actually, sorry that he's having to have it at all)! I hope it's nothing serious and that he has a quick and easy recovery. I have everything crossed for you that you manage to O before that time and can catch it!

Patience, I'm sorry that you're having such a tough time with not knowing what's going on this month. I imagine that's going to be the hardest part of the whole NTNP thing you've got going on, or it would be for me anyways. I have a hard time not knowing and not being in control!

Rockstar, that's a good idea to doctor shop if you're not satisfied with the one you're seeing, until you find someone who really listens to you and gives you the care you're looking for. Good luck, I hope AF starts on her own soon anyways but if not, that you find someone who is willing to help!

Patience, things are going well on my end, thanks! I actually O'd already, either Tuesday or Wednesday of this week. FF says Wednesday but I think there's a good chance it was Tuesday. Either way, we dtd on the Wednesday before, Saturday, Monday and Wednesday. I have no idea why but I'm all of a sudden back to feeling hopeful and "having a good feeling" this month, which is a total change from recent months where I've managed to not hope and therefore not be disappointed. I actually kind of wish I wasn't feeling hopeful, as I feel that's just setting myself up for disappointment! It doesn't help that I had a dream last night that I was about 6 months pregnant, and that it was this cycle that I had conceived. I even said in my dream that it was after 9 months of trying and on our 11th cycle...which is now. And that of course made me more hopeful, ugh! I guess we'll just see what happens!

Anyone have any fun plans this weekend?

 

[DannaD]

Thanks for all the kind words girls!!
It had been very stressful couple days for sure.


I took the trigger last night, and I couldn't stop shaking after! It didn't even hurt but I was so sacred of missing it :s

IUI is tomorrow morning, 36 hours exactly after trigger which is the IVF/IUI standard. Of course now I'm convincing myself I already O'd and it will not work, etc .... But supposedly that the trigger shot is very effective in timing O unless I was already surging (which I wasn't)

I had tons of EWCM earlier today too... I wish we could BD but doc said no BD until IUI so.... FX everything works as it should for once!

 

[rockstarlove9]

Turtle0630 thanks. I feel like if im paying them they should at least do a little investigating or heck even pretend like they care but that's neither here nor there. I have decided to start taking vitek tomorrow its suppose to really help with cycle regulation and may knock af on fairly soon. Im praying so anyway. Im tired of rushing to the bathroom expecting AF but only seeing small pools of cm. So i'll start my vitek journey and update about how it goes. I started a thread to do so if your interested.

 

[patienceiav]

Wow that's quite a crazy dream I always had pregnant dreams when I conceived, not the months I didn't! I hope that's a good sign for you, that good feeling can make the wait for af easier for some great bd run too! I'm one of those people who is convinced she's pregnant all the time, except most of the time that was true I've even had that inkling since like, Monday, which is maybe when I O'ed! I am silly

This weekend is going to be "live in pyjamas and play xbox one borderlands (just released here today) with hubby" weekend, I've gymmed hard 3 times so I can have the weekend off, I admit my boss brought everyone a slice of cake today so I had it then felt super guilty and was glad to go to the gym after! OK so not the whole weekend, we have brunch out with the hubby's family, at least there's no surprise pregnant people in their family for the foreseeable future!

What're you up to?

 

[DannaD]

That sounds like my kind of weekend Patience!! Hihi

Turtle that dream sounds very nice. I had pregnancy dreams yesterday too, I was having a girl and could feel the kicking, it was amazing. Let's hope it means something? : )

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

I just want to say I love you ladies. I'll post properly at lunch

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

I'm liking these dreams ladies! I'm hoping they mean good things for you!!

Danna I have everything crossed that this works!!! I'm so hopeful!!

Turtle I'm hopeful for you too!!! Sounds like there's a good chance you caught that eggie!

Rock star I hope something happens for you soon!!

AFM: going to start BD this weekend!

 

[patienceiav]

Well in a complete bomb today hubby told me he doesn't want kids, if I don't die of a broken heart you at least won't see me here again, bye ladies

 

[DannaD]

Patience! What?!
Guys react weirdly to losses and challenges. It can be a bad defenses mechanic, I hope you'll talk with him again about it soon
xxxxxxxxx

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

Um.... WHAT?! Patience don't take that to heart love. Please don't

 

[patienceiav]

He's thought this over for months and been certain of it for about 3, it's permanent. I'm still in dumb shock and can't stop crying, I am scared for the future now

 

[MrsHudson]

Whoa patience! I don't even know what to say.... After all your efforts that's a big one to drop on someone.

 

[DannaD]

That's so unfair after all you've been through... I wish I could give you the biggest hug right now

 

[twinkie2]

OMG Patience! I am so sorry, you must be devastated, I'm hoping he's in a rough patch and not in a clear mind now, after all the trying I can't believe he'd say that now! hun!

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

I really think that he's just stressed out no one expects to go through such a tough road to have a baby. Maybe yall just need a break from all the TTC it can be so stressful for both men and women. Maybe he's just hurting more than he's let on.

 

[LavenderLove]

Holy cow Patience! After all you've been through and after all your efforts. That's so unfair. I just hope he's stressed and is reacting to it all badly. Did he say why at all?

 

[Ms Elizabeth]

Oh patience hun....I'm so sorry. We are all here for you. I hope it's just a "phase". Please be strong.
