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

[jessica716]

Lola - I felt soooooo sick just before ov, could be that coming? I came off bcp had withdrawal bleed and classed it as cd1, then at cd16 i ovulated.... get some cheapie opks, least it'll give you a better idea of where you are at.

Mermaid - I'm 4dpo, no symptoms at all, other than a change in cm but i was expecting that as been using thrush meds all week... Keeping my fx that its going to be a bfp and AF doesnt show for you

Wnt2be.... OOOooh ultrasound, exciting!! Can't wait for all that again!!

 

[Wtbam]

btw twinkie your chart is looking good!

 

[ms_lola]

You are all so helpful!!!

Mermaid: praying you get your BFP! From my constant reading of the BFP symptom thread, seems like many people didn't test positive until after 12dpo? Fx for you.

Want2b: I got so emotional reading your post, I'm so happy for you! Sounds like its all going well, I hope it continues that way

patience: Thank you for taking the time to write all that info for me! I am learning new things every day just by reading these forums, I honestly thought I knew the basics of pregnancy but evidently, I didn't! I think I will get my hands on some OPK tests, it really sucks having no idea whats going on with my body after BCP, I think I'll feel a bit more confident once I know when I've ovulated, what dpo it is for me, etc etc.

Jessica:Hopefully the nausea does mean I'm O soon! Been BDing lots just incase


I'm now 12 days off BCP and its not gotten any easier yet!
I'm having a lot of trouble eating, not wanting anything sweet and I normally have a massive sweet tooth. All I want is salty butter on toast!

I'm still having lots of cramping, especially at night when I'm trying to sleep. Its not super painful, more just persistant and annoying. TMI also, but I nearly passed out having BM this morning...I've had it once before (I think Vagal response is the term) wasn't fun! Also struggling to do my workouts at the gym, feeling very light headed and just spaced out most of the day. Honestly can't wait for AF to show, I'm having little to no CM so I have no idea where in my cycle I am, but judging from the cramps I'm guessing it'll show up this week or next. I never imagined coming off BC would be such a pain in the ass!

Just glad to have you ladies to complain to, and to stop me from driving myself insane!

Well ladies im on CD 55 no sign of AF and I haven't tested again yet. Not really sure what to think. I'm a little concerned that there is just something wrong with me rather than I might be pregnant. But I know everyone is different.

 

[patienceiav]

Sorry Charlie that sounds awful I'd be testing like mad if i were you hopefully you just had a late ov and nothing is wrong

As for me, I was so pleased when my opk started showing faint line a week ago, it hasn't gotten stronger since then my body is back to its pre ov *******ness! Bd last night and fertility visit tomorrow so next bd will be earliest Friday if hubby is up for it after this swimmer donation couldn't be worse timed so I hope they actually help me!

 

[jessica716]

lola - How are you feeling now? You ordered those opks yet :wink:

Charlie - Have you resisted the urge to test still? Like Patience said hopefully you have just ov'd late

Patience - Sorry to hear the opk didn't get darker, Hope it goes ok tomorrow at your appointment...

I've had some funny little low down twinges on and off for 3 days now, Sensitive teeth today and the odd dizzy spell yesterday and today...Not sure whats going on, currently 7dpo...Couldn't resist the urge to test haha...

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

Ladies, just bought some tests thus morning. The only reason I've not been testing like crazy is we are on a road trip which makes it difficult lol. I'm going to test either tonight or tomorrow. Still no sign of af at all.

Patience that's so frustrating! I hope your appointment gives you some answers!

Jessica, keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Lola, how are you feeling today?

Twinkie, how's it going over there for you? ?

 

[patienceiav]

ARGH! last night was another shadow opk, tonight was super stronger than control line opk so ov tomorrow or Thursday, no more chance for bd we got yesterday and Saturday though but that's not much help I'm scared of tomorrow, I don't know what to expect!

Oh no, what bad timing, I hope it goes well for you tomorrow, make sure you let us know how you get on

I've just put a post up in the 2ww section, my body is confusing me big time!

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

Well. Got a BFN this afternoon. Sigh. Something must be wrong with me. Damnnit.

 

[twinkie2]

patience and cc2, sorry things are being so difficult!

9dpo, maybe saw another super squinter, will see what the coming days bring. Tons of pinching, twinges and cramping, but after two early mc's this terrifies me

 

[ms_lola]

fx for you twinkie!

I'm still feeling rubbish. Got woken up early this morning by construction across the street - insanely dizzy all morning and horrible cramps (feel like they are shooting up my vagina and into my bellybutton!) just wanna nap for a while but the noise is too loud
Otherwise I've been really snappy, poor OH keeps asking me whats wrong after I stomp out of the room (for the 10th time in an hour)
and had a really insane dream last night that I got a BFP.
Got an opk ordered from the chemist, not going to bother testing though until after I get first AF.

Charlie - sorry must be very frustrating. Are you going to the doctors anytime soon to find out what could be wrong?

patience - hopefully those little swimmers will hang out for a while! Let us know how you get on today

jessica - Know what you mean about the teeth thing. Super annoying! Mine feel almost as if I've been clenching my jaw all day. Don't worry, I tested like 2 days after my withdrawal bleed knew it would be BFN but I was like "I'll just make sure...."

 

[Wtbam]

oh twinkie I have everything crossed for you xxx

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

Twinkie- fx for you!!!!♡♡

Ms lola- I hope you start feeling better!

I have a dr appointment set for july 1st for my annual. If af doesnt show up by the time we get home from vacation then I'm going to call to move up my appointment if I can. Which is highly unlikely but e will see.

 

[patienceiav]

Well that was interesting, got made to feel bad for coming before the 1 year mark but she started the ball rolling, won't do anything until the start of August unless the blood/sperm analysis comes through with something drastic but she checked me out, my lining was 8mm and I'm ovulating today, compared to last month was 4mm at 5dpo and she was blown away by my lovely eggy she showed me on the screen too she didn't steal hubby's swimmers though! But told us to go home and BD (= hubby can't manage) + since she did a ultrasound up my hoohah I'm full of sperm killing lube :/ will try to bd anyway!

She said the progesterone blood test can be done any time of the month but best right after af, so still not got my worries answered, but I'm delighted with the ultrasound

 

[twinkie2]

You should be delighted with the ultrasound!! Get to work woman!! And have fun!

 

[jessica716]

Patience - Less talking more BD

 

[twinkie2]

Patience - Less talking more BD

[jessica716]

Patience - Less talking more BD

That's great!

I'm just jealous cos I think i'm out and I've got another few weeks until Ov

P.s How you feeling Twinkie?

 

[twinkie2]

Bleh I am so impatient and I want an answer now!! I'm all out of my cheapie 10miu tests, so took a frer and think there is something but it is so crazy faint not sure if I have line eye, or it's the start of something. Will have to give it a couple more days for FRER to pick it up if it is bfp. 10dpo today, AF due by Sunday, so we'll see, hoping a test tomorrow night might have a decent line on it.
