The 'OFFICIAL' Ex Mirena Thread

[HarliRexx]

I had faint lines on pretty much all of my sticks. I tested every day and they stayed faint till I got a dark one and a smiley. I wouldn't test any less than every other day. I don't think the hormone it detects lasts very long, so I think you may miss it if you test less often than that.

Any tips on getting through the 2ww? It started quite positive but starting to get a bit anxious now.x

 

[HarliRexx]

Me too Lucy! I keep telling myself it's unlikely I'll get a BFP my first cycle but it doesn't seem to be making me any less eager to test. I really wish I was handling my TTC emotions better, esp since it's still so early. I'm just trying to make it through one more day, every day. I don't know how else to think of it.

When are you testing? I'll be testing on the 20th.

I really need to ovulate soon or get a period

So busy waiting to get to a point where can properly TTC that I have managed to go through half of my wool stash (which is ALOT) and have projects planned for the rest already! At this rate I will have no room for more!!

How is everyone?

How long ago did you have your coil removed honey?

I had mine out sept 2nd and had a proper period on the 4th but since then nothing just light spotting on and off when I should be having a period. I'm, hoping its just whle my body sorts itself out with not having the coils effects now.

 

[Daniele89]

i think iv posted in the wrong thread lol ... i never had a coil in ...

awwww its sooo annoying when our body plays tricks on us!

i hope u get ur BFP! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

HarliRexx, Lucy- I think that the first cycle is the most nerve wrecking for sure! At the same time it's nice to feel like you COULD be expecting a BFP. From my experience it seems like the earlier you are in your TTC the more impatient you get. I occupied my time in reading books to calm myself and get my baby fix. FX'D for some sticky beans!

I have evicted AF and my journey continues. On to the fun part! I felt like those smileys yesterday when DH and I were . I think my plan is just to BD every other day until the end of my cycle

 

[HarliRexx]

I actually think reading is a great idea. It really helped to occupy my mind in the past when I was stressed. It should certainly keep me from spending my time looking longingly at cribs and nursery decorations online! Fab idea, thanks!

Good luck to you as you move on to the next cycle!

We HAVE to be TTC buddies! Our cycles are spot on! Last night was our first night BD, as I too kicked the witch to the curb! We will be BD at least every other night, if not every night until the end of my cycle. We are trying to save money right now, so I think I am going to pass on the OPK's this month.

Thanks HarliRexx, its good to know Im not the only one going mad. Dont get me wrong megarice03 is right, its a stunning feeling that you might actually be pregnant, but at the same time your trying like hell not to get excited!!
Im on 6dpo today, I could test on sat, but Im not sure whether to wait to see if I come on next wed or not, save the disappointment of a bfn. What do you think???


BrandysBabies Id love to be ttc buddies, could so do with being drip fed PMA at the moment lol!!

Reading is a great plan! Might bury myself in the twilight saga again!!!!!
Lots of and for everyone.xx

Yeah! Sounds like a plan! I will take all the TTC buddies I can get! Ooooo, Twilight! I have read all 4 books about 3 times! Lol! I dont know how I am going to deal with the last movie being split in two!

And althought the 4th book is my favorite, I dont know how I will feel reading it again now that I am TTC! Hahaha!

 

[lucyoz34]

omgomgomg Im such a huge fan!lol (slight over-reaction!) I love the last book, totally my fav too. I so don't want it all to be over, Ill be gutted!! So are you team Edward or team Jacob??????
ttc buddies it is!! Where are you in your cycle now? are you charting anything??

 

[BrandysBabies]

I am Team Edward all the way! I think the reason is that I can't get it out of my head that it is not really Bella that Jacob is bonded to, it the baby, which really kinda weirded me out! Lol! Plus he's so needy and whiney! Lol! BUt he sure is nice to look at without his shirt on! Hahaha!

I am on cycle day 6 I hope! Lol! AF just left, so we will be BDing every day until the end of my cycle. Not charting or anything yet. Most likely will start next month if I dont catch the eggy this month. I want to see how my first cycle goes, number of days etc., before I start charting and temping and such. Where are you in yours?

 

[lucyoz34]

It has to be team Edward doesn't it! though I totally agree about the bod on Jacob! Cinema went wild when he took his top off in New Moon!! I just love the whole Edward and Bella thing, he's the perfect man! OH gets quite competitive when I start reading them!!!lol
oh your just coming up to the fun bit in your cycle then, yey!! I loved that bit, set my alarm early every morning so we could BD, OH thought it was christmas!hehe
Im on 6dpo today so should be able to test from saturday, but Im not sure I want to, think I might wait to see if I get af next wednesday instead!
Iv charted temp this month, just hope Iv done it right and been BDing at the right time!!!lolxx

FO' sho! TTC buddies all the way. I think this cycle is pretty exact for us, which is exciting!.. I think I'm with Lucy and wait until AF is due for testing.. Set expectations low = less heart break .

 

[lucyoz34]

Megarice 03 when will you be testing?? Totally agree about the avoiding disappointment, it was so vile last month, even though there was no chance of being pg cause mirena hadn't long been out, I was devastated, and used so many tests just fuelling the disappointment!!

 

[curly123]

Hello ladies....I am on 6dpo and don't want to test early either!! Well I'm going to try very hard not to - 1st month TTC ever!

Wishing everyone their s this cycle woohoo!!

xxxx

 

[lucyoz34]

curly123 Im 7dpo and its not fun!!lol Im sure Im imagining all these symptoms that are not there. Soooo frustrating!! Are you temping or anything?? when did you have mirena removed?

 

[BrandysBabies]

Yeah! Another TTC buddy!! I am finding this part of the month VERY boring and annoying! Lol! I dont know which is going to be worse, waiting for "O" or the 2wks after! Lol! I am really hoping this first cycle does the trick!!
