Testing in March?

[wifeybby]

Aww! That's exciting!! So happy to hear Clomid is doing its lovely job for you hun - esp x3!! Hope you catch one! Or all three! Wouldn't that be crazy!? I'm.so excited to see what happens! Best wishes

I'm feeling nervous too but trying to stay positive and optimistic provera has worked just fine on me last time I used it, but I've never taken Clomid. Hoping it works just as well for me as it has you, dm! My RE is going to do follicle tracking and all that, and I've got a box of CB digi OPKs from January still unused. I feel like I'm as ready as I'll ever be!

Hi ladies!! Can I join?? 3dpiui plan on testing on 3/14 when hubby and I are on our road trip along California coast! 😄 This is our very first iui!

 

[kristina21]

welcome Skyxyks! HOw long have you guys been ttc? I hope you get your positive!
dogmommy- i hope your progesterone levels are good! 3 large follicles.... sounds promising
wifey bb- when are you due to test?
sjab- does that make your test date next week or the week after? I know some women will not tell their husbands when they're Ovulating because of the pressure to perform. I may have to consider doing this although he's pretty smart and would likely figure it out on his own ...lol

Dxliana- that's so amazing! Did you use OPKs all the way through? I'd love to hear more about your story.

I'm currently 7 dpo as per my fertility friend. I have the premium version which the free trial period is about to end. Those of you who use fertility tracker- do you suggest buying the year membership? I like that you can search other charts and do the overlay. It's fun to play with during the 2 week wait...

We have been TTC off and on since 2011..but I have PCOS and wasn't ovulating. Took a long break, started getting healthy and taking supplements and 8/2015 started ovulating on my own so we have been TTC consistently since then!! 😄

 

[dogmommy]

Thanks girls! My progesterone came back at 56 so much better than before the clomid. It was at an 8! I got some cheap hpts think I might try on 13th DH bday!

Good luck wifey! Keep me updated!

Welcome sky!

Kristina things are moving along for you !!

 

[Dxliana]

Hey Sky and Kristina,

How things for you both lately? Hope you are doing good.

I did my test this morning on ClearBlue Digital and i got a
im 4 weeks pregnant if i were to calculate it correctly.
Still having cramps, back pain and extremely , lucky enough i dont have any nausea and vomiting

Lots of baby dust to all TTC!

 

[kristina21]

Hey Guys

My period is two days late but i also ovulated 2-3 days late this cycle which makes perfect sense. I misread my dpo yesterday which makes today dpo 9. I took a preg test and

I will probably just wait for AF to show at this point, I don't really want to test again. This is cycle #4 of TTC.

Dxliana- congrats to you!! and baby dust to the rest!

Dogmommy- how hight do they want your progesterone? That sounds like an awesome number! You will have a good shot now!

Kristina21 - I probably won't test until the 13th or 14th. Never did buy more tests and have about 4 left so those should last me this month. Been feeling crampy on and off and should be about 5DPO today although without temping this month I am totally guestimating. I didn't tell hubby that I was ovulating this month but he figured it out from the OPK's being in the trash. I will have to be more diligent next time with making sure they're not in sight.

I am still hopeful that this is our month. I was at a store today and they had baby boots (looked like Army combat boots) and they we're $8 on sale from $20. I just had to have them as both DH and I are members of the US Army. I thought to myself, how adorable of an announcement would that be with all of our boots lined up?? This is the first thing I bought and I'm not sure if I should have..

Anyone else bought things?

Eeekk.. this month has been going quicker than last month as last month I was fixated and it was all I could think about. This month I think it helped not temping to not be constantly thinking about ovulating and now the TWW.

 

[kristina21]

GUYS!!!!!!
this morning!!!
Can't believe it (period was 1 day late). Husband doesn't know yet..... Cautiously optimistic as it's so early.

In disbelief.......

 

[dogmommy]

Yayyyy Kristina!!!! So happy for you

 

[sjab11]

Kristina that is beyond EXCITING! Congratulations.

When wiping this afternoon there was definitely pink tinged CM. I put the toilet paper up a bit further and there is definitely a good amount. Period is not due until March 15 so it seems early for spotting and the beginning of AF. Today I should be 7-8 dpo depending on when ovulation occurred and we were able to BD 2 days during my fertile period.

I am trying not to get my hopes up but am hoping this is IB.

Gahh, now I really want to be able to test!

 

[wifeybby]

congrats Kristina!!
So happy for you!! Ahh!! That's so awesome can't wait to hear DH's reaction! Congrats again!! H&H 9 months

 

[dogmommy]

Sjab sounds like implantation spotting! Fingers crossed for you!!

Kristina how are you doing??? Are you having any symptoms yet?

 

[kristina21]

Hey Guys!

Thank you for all the positive messages.

I'm technically 4weeks 5 days. I go to see my doctor today, sort of nervous.

The first sign for me was that I had weird shooting pains in my boobs a few times. I normally don't have that during a period. Also, last night I felt super hot almost like I had a fever (related or not I don't know). They say the high progesterone can cause hot flashes when I looked it up last night. Also, I had some pretty decent back cramping 2 days ago which settled yesterday. It felt like period cramping but a bit different. Less intense than the worst day but more consistent. Yesterday I was SO exhausted by 5pm. I was at work for 12 hours and fell asleep as soon as I got home. Also not really interested in eating.

Sjab- any updates?? Did the bleeding stop? You're not alone in the buying stuff department. I have a big box of baby stuff. I use it for gifts for friends. Today is the 9th! You will be testing in 4-5 days?

Dxliana- how are things going for you?? Any symptoms?
Dogmommy- how you doing? BD time? test soon?

Have a good day ladies!!

Hi ladies :wave:

Sorry I'm so late, but can I join you? I'm 5dpo on my 1st cycle TTC, and the 2ww is killing me!

Kristina and Dxliana, congrats on your BFPs!!!

Kristina, your story is really inspiring me, because I'm also concerned about low progesterone. My high BBTs are not all that high, and I've been spotting since 2DPO. Did you have the spotting this month before your BFP?

If I'm not pregnant this month I won't be too sad, but I'm mostly hoping for a healthy LP! I didn't O until day 21 and I feel like AF is coming any second now... Also only been off BC for 2 months, so maybe that's why things seem a bit wacky....

Who is testing this week?

 

[sjab11]

Kristina21,

The bleeding did stop, it was only that one time I went to the bathroom and then nothing. No new symptoms it seems like and should be 10dpo today. I know it is early but I tested this morning and stark white test. Will plan on testing Saturday or Sunday. I'm super hopeful that it was implantation bleeding!

The waiting game is SO hard!!!!

 

[Dxliana]

HI Kristina,

sorry for the late reply.
I'll be 5 weeks tomorrow.
I feel extremely exhausted for no reason, stairs and hills are not my bff for now.

Extreme sore BB, mild cramps and constipation.

Hope you are doing good!


Hi sjab - Good luck dear! Fingers crossed!

 

[kristina21]

angelbride- I did not have any spotting this month, normall I would start to spot around 10dpo and it would be on off light for 4-5 days. Going back over the past year some periods were shorter and the flow would start right away. I've tracked my periods long before TTC. This was cycle #4 however, looking back we didn't do the best job for 3/4 of those months.

My temps were all in the 36.5 range pre-ovulation and then jump o 37.1 ish on ovulation. We had BD'd the day of my first positive LH surge. I tested at 9po and it was very negative. Did not test at 10dpo. By 11 dpo I was feeling a bit off and I tested with faint lines on cheapie tests so bought a first response which was def positive. I still don't believe it.

How long have u been ttc?

Dxliana- I'm 5 weeks tomorrow as well! it's incredible the EXHAUSTION. Your symptoms are exactly like mine. I'm not mentally tired but I have these waves of weakness that I have to sit down. I also find my heart rate is beating super fast. Boobs also sore very mildly and only at times. I had cramps earlier this week when I think it was implantation.

sjab- do u have children already? If so, did you have implantation bleeding with your other kids?

 

[sjab11]

Kristina21, this would be our first this is cycle #3 TTC and it feels like it is taking forever but I know it isn't and plenty of people have it take a few months or even more.

I am 11dpo this morning and took an ic cheapie test that came in a pack of OPK's and HCG tests from amazon and it was negative. I was really thinking that if what I had on 7dpo was indeed implantation bleeding that I surely should have a positive by now so I am feeling a bit bummed but still hopeful. No other symptoms for me other than being crampy and having some twinges here and there. AF is due on the 14/15 so we will see what happens. Gosh, that little bit of bleeding sure got my hopes up so I am hoping I am not overly crushed if it doesn't happen this month.
