The 'OFFICIAL' Ex Mirena Thread

[sjones1125]

Liz- I'm sorry! This really flippin sucks!!! Soft cups sound like a great Idea!

BByo- FX'd that you guys get good results!!!

afm: I'm soo bummed!!! I am so sick and tired of not knowing what my body is doing!!! It's been 4 months since I got off Mirena, I would think things would be getting a little better for me and ALL of us!!!! I feel like crap today!

 

[RainyMama]

Stacey- your chart is very messed up. I am sorry you are sad. Can I just say that I think you are doing everything right? And, you are doing as much as you can, we all are great pre mamas, taking good care of our bodies, in stable relationships. No one here is heavily drinking or over caffeinating, we are all doing something one way or another to know when we ovulate.
Stacey- I am nervous about pcos for you and I think you should talk to you dr again ASAP.

Group hug!

bbyo-i wish we were all on the same cycle!! We really need to work on this. hehe its ok thought bc we are all rooting for you, hard core!!!!!

liz- again, so sorry about CD1. BOO!!! I will be letting your af know she has overstayed her welcome and is no longer allowed to return... for at least about 10 mos or so.

stacey- i want u knocked up, now you really are doing everything you can right now... I agree with Liz... I think you should make another appt. and ask about pcos.

afm, cramping hard core still... just waiting for af to make her appearance. I am working another 2nd shift tonight to learn some things they dont do on my first shift... so, I am just hoping she holds out and doesnt show in the middle of my shift. wearing a liner just in case!! took another test today... I am 11/12dpo... bfn. im just waiting waiting waiting... so i can move on to my next cycle!

 

[sjones1125]

I think I'll call today, she just doesn't think its been long enough to give my body time to get back to 'normal'. Maybe i should just ask for provera again and take it sooner than cd 40+ like she wants too. You guys think i should give it more time? Next cycle i will not be taking anything!

 

[LVnMommy]

Ok OB wrote me a script for provera. Take for 10 days if no AF then said to come back ASAP. Soooo anyone have experience with provera????

 

[OperationBbyO]

I don't have any experience with it at all. Sometimes though I think it would be nice to not see AF every 24/25 days. At this rate I'll be cycled back around with Rainy and Taurus in no time! lol


I"m back on my health kick. We got our first box of CSA food today. I have to say, there are a lot of weird veggies in there that I've never seen. Tonight we had radishes baked in cinnamon and honey. I've never eaten a radish. It was weird.

I'm going to start making homemade bread again too. I might as well go all out for TTC. It's clearly going to take a while.

 

[sjones1125]

Jessica- I took provera last month to kick start my period. I didn't get any side effects from them, took them right before bed.

Bbyo- I hate radish! Lol but I love homemade bread. I always make some.

I called the NP and she was suppose to call me back, haven't heard from her tho. But i already can hear what she's gonna tell me!

 

[LVnMommy]

Well I guess ill see how it goes// Feeling prettttttty down about having to take the provera I just dont know whats going on with my body and it really fusterates me!!! At this point i feel like my TTC is going to be put on hold forever. Well thats all just stopped by to complain/whine!

 

[sjones1125]

Made my appointment for may 30th. Thats the earliest she can see me! Blahhh

 

[RainyMama]

Stacey- could you speak with her over the phone to get advice as to what you should do until then? May 30th is sooooo far away!

Babyo- I have been on a similar kick, though cd1 is always my whatever I want to eat day, had Chinese food tonight
I have been thinking about signing up for a csa, as well. So far I have just been spending a zillion dollars at whole foods type stores.

I would love if we all start sharing what we are serving for dinner- I need some inspiration for new dishes and while we are at it, what does everyone have for breakfast?

 

[sjones1125]

Liz- i did, she didn't have much to say but my diet and excercise. They put me on a waiting list tho, if anyone cancels they'll call me.

Hmm breakfast- waffles with butter and cheese( dutch cheese) lol, oatmeal or a pear if i'm not too hungry, bagel, home made flour tortillas with butter or homeade fried beans(my favorite!) OJ, coffee.

 

[OperationBbyO]

Carnation instant breakfast and a banana or an apple. I'm always running late and that's all I have time to cram in while I'm running to work. I usually eat while we are driving in. DH and I commute together. We work like three buildings away from each other on campus. It's nice because I walk by his building all the time so I get to stop in and give him mid-day smooches.

It took us an hour, but we finally identified the super weird looking veggie: garlic scapes. No idea what that is!

 

[taurusmom05]

If I have time, a waffle with fresh strawberries... Or ill make a fruit n fat free yogurt bowl. If I don't have time, I love the carnation instant breakfast, too... And a bagel or banana.

So af has not shown yet, won't be testing tomorrow, as I think she will be coming in on me. I work 730a-4p so hopefully ill be nice and distracted. Still cramping a tiny place inside of me hopes I'm on of those people that don't get a positives until 14/15dpo. Lol my LP is anywhere from 10-12, and I typically have a 28-31 day cycle. It's after midnight and I'm on CD31 now... So she could show today or Friday. Pls stay away!!

I'll keep u guys posted. Hope everyone is doing well!!!

 

[babydreamers]

Hi guys -
Just popping my head to let you know I'm thinking of all of you. So sorry TTC is not going well this month. I hope your not getting too down about things.

AFM - still spotting, still tiny amounts. No cramps. Staying positive. I love cereal with blueberries for breakfast

 

[sjones1125]

I just love seeing the patterns on this one! Its never been this much in the mornings, which is Pretty exciting. https://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w47/Spnluv/55aae04a.jpg

 

[taurusmom05]

CD1... Enough said

 

[sjones1125]

i'm sorry Molly, looks like this isn't our month

Do you have a plan for this cycle?

 

[OperationBbyO]

So.....DH got a script for viagra this morning. The stress of TTC is causing some problems with his manly parts. I'm not exactly sure how I feel about this yet. I hate that I'm stressing him out so much with all my problems, but I'm glad he got some help.

 

[RainyMama]

Babyo- sounds like DH is very committed to TTC. Hopefully the thought of having it around just in case will be enough to relieve the pressure for him. However I look forward to whatever hilarious ttc funny comes out of this, should he decide to take it

Stacey- as usual I am hoping for ovulation!!!! Love that ferning!

Molly- I am sorry. I am in a small amount of shock seems like we have 0.0 BFPs to report and it positively sucks to be us right now!

Dreamers- I am so happy to have you rooting for us!

All- thanks for sharing your breakfasts, I often have a protein bar and 1/2 cup of coffee with 1/2 cup of milk.
Now, what's for dinner? We are having Dover sole, quinoa and a salad of lettuce and tomatoes.

 

[LVnMommy]

I am not feeling like myself at all today!!! this af is going to be hell! Im weepy,sad, emotional! EHHH
