Trying preseed this time!

[Mrs.326]

Awe, hope so sorry to hear that. Keep your chin up! I know it's really hard to be excited for people who get pregnant when you're having such a hard time, but I'm sure it took a lot for your colleague to tell you, considering she knows your situation. Best of luck on your next round!! FX'd & lots of :babydust:

 

[MrsKibler]

Hope I'm so sorry it's so hard to be happy when you feel like that. Lots of positive thoughts coming your way! You will get your two lines, just have to put it in Gods hands.

How is every one doing??

Sorry I haven't been on much, I've been so busy! I've had a fabulous weekend with my DH for our 1st wedding anniversary. I ended up getting two days of positive opks (3rd and 4th), but kind of nervous because we bd'd only on 2 and 3. Going to bd tonight and hope that we catch it!!

 

[Mrs.326]

Happy Anniversary, MrsKibler! Glad to hear you two had a great weekend And your timing sounds good to me! Better odds for a girl, for sure GL!

 

[Mrs B.]

I'm a bit late...but Happy Anniversary MrsKibler!!!

How you doing Mrs.326? Not long till your boy/girl appointment now is it??

 

[MrsKibler]

Hey ladies- Yet again I've hit a painful part in my cycle. I can actually press down on my abdomen and there is a huge lump where my left ovary should be....When I sit I can feel everything shift around, and now the pain is starting to extend all the way from left side to right side. BDing is impossible and out of the question. We tried but then I had a really bad episode, almost went to ER (Ummm How EMBARASSING to walk in tell them we BD'd and now I'm in pain...to the people I work with......, but DH was great and got a bath running for me and kept pouring water over me...It finally calmed down after about an hour, but was seriously the worst pain I have ever been in. Makes me kind of worried what kind of stress that could cause if we did catch an eggie already. I had those two days of Positive OPK's, one day negative, then a couple positives again. Won't be having blood work done this month so now I'm really anxious!! And left wondering when we'll even be able to BD again....
Blah....Really could have used the weekend off... I'll be Debbie Downer....Just don't know what to think.

Hope- When will you be Ovulating again?? Should be pretty soon in the next week no??
Mrs. B- Will you test soon!?!?!
Hope everyone else has a Fabulous weekend!!

Sorry about the NOVEL
Oh and thanks for the anniversary wishes!!

 

[Mrs B.]

Aww, that's awful *hugs* Can the docs not do anything to help?

I think I will wait till Friday to test...I'm either 7 or 8 dpo today (which will make me 13 or 14 dpo on Friday)...but I had my Day21 bloods done yesterday and I should find out the results on Tuesday. Been a bit crampy today...though it doesn't feel crampy exactly...more like something is there. No doubt my wonderful wonderful mind playing ttc tricks on me once again! lol. I've been a bit of a grump this month - we didn't really try very hard (DTD the day before my positive OPK and 2 days after it as I noticed my cervix was high and open). I think because I knew I was getting bloods done I really just wasn't in a ttc place. I'm also a little fed up with the whole ttc thing! On one hand it feels like it will never happen and on the other hand I feel like I can't believe it hasn't happened yet! lol. Wow that was a bit of a ramble...sorry!

How's everyone doing?

 

[Mrs.326]

So sorry to hear about that, MrsKibler! Hopefully you're feeling much better now.

Mrs.B we find out on SATURDAY! This week is going to drag... but come Saturday I will finally know if it's a little boy or little girl

 

[Mrs B.]

Ooo yay! That's so exciting! I think girl...but that might have something to do with the fact that it says you're predicted a girl in your signature!!! You'll have to come and let as know as soon as possible!!!

 

[Mrs.326]

Everyone has said girl so far... some family thinks boy, but I think that's mainly because DH comes from a family of all boys (he has 2 brothers). I think girl from the ultrasound, but that could be wrong. I'm so anxious to find out. I'll definitely let you guys know as soon as I can

 

[Mrs B.]

Looks like I'm out this month my sore bbs are no longer as sore and had bit of blood in CM...and at 9/10dpo it's a bit late for IB...plus my body just loves to spot for days before AF arrives. Grr. At least I should get my Day21 results tomorrow...

 

[Mrs.326]

Sorry Mrs.B I hope it is IB!! One can hope, right? Also, just FYI, my bb's hurt off and on until about 10 weeks. Since then they've constantly been sore... but at first it was really inconsistent.

 

[Mrs B.]

I'd love it to be IB...but not holding out much hope. Honestly don't think it will happen naturally (if at all) for us. We will have been trying for 13 months on Thursday As much as I don't want anything to be wrong with my bloods, I kind of hope that there is some sort of hormone imbalance (that can be corrected!!) because then maybe we'll stand a chance at getting PG. Doc won't refer us to fertility clinic until November (18 months) either. Sorry to be such a downer!

 

[Mrs.326]

No worries... you're not being a downer, you have completely normal feelings. I'm sure you've probably mentioned this before, but have you tried clomid or anything that? You might also want to look into fertilaid (www.fertilaid.com). Is your DH taking zinc? These are all things that might help... at the very least it may help you feel as though you're doing something to help the process along while you're waiting for a referal to the fertility specialist.

 

[Mrs B.]

Unfortunately I live in the UK...so the doc's are really reluctant to do anything...it took me 13 months to persuade him to let me have the Day21 blood test!! I think if the tests come back abnormal then I am really going to try to persuade him to give me clomid. From what I read on here it seems ladies in the US seem to be given it from around 6 months if they're not PG, but in the UK you're lucky if it's before 12-18 months.

I've not tried fertilaid but I am on Pregnacare vitamins (and hubby is on wellman which has plenty of zinc in!) Fertilaid looks good, I may have to see if I can get that here...only thing is I am reluctant to stop using the vitamins I am on because they are wonderful...I haven't been ill since I started taking them over a year ago!!

Maybe I could keep taking my vitamins, but look at the extra's that are in Fertilaid...I've heard a lot about Agnus Castus...sounds like it could be good for me as I have a lot of spotting before AF.

Thanks hun

 

[mrswemyss]

Trying preseed for the first time tonight!!

According to my CBFM I am ovulating today... SO lets pray that the clomid did the trick!

 

[Hope1409]

Hi ladies, sorry i have been MIA. i have been checking in with my phone, but it's always such a pain to type on them. Mrs.Kibler, i am so sorry about the horrible cyst pains. hopefully they have gone away by now and your doing ok. Mrs.326, only a few days left for your ultrasound...im so excited!!!!

as for me, nothing new to report. i finished my 4th and last round of clomid on friday. i am cd10 today and we started dtd yesterday. i am trying not to stress but cant help but worry whats next for us if we don't get a bfp this month. i already booked my gyno apt for the end of the month but hopefully i wont need it. i have been driving myself crazy with a new thought that i cant shake...maybe you ladies can help....

what if my progesterone peaks after ovulation (as proven with the day21 tests) but then drops after the fact which doesn't allow me to implant? how do i find out if that's my problem? how do all those women know to take progesterone supplements and/or creams even before they are pregnant? i'm trying not to drive myself mad but i am so drained from this ttc business. i am coming up on 1 year since my miscarriage and looking back, i don't even know where the year went

 

[Mrs B.]

Hope, I've had exactly the same thought! Get my Day21 blood results today and they were taken on Friday when I had sore bbs etc (suggesting high Progesterone) and yesterday I had a bit of blood in CM, the start of my spotting before AF. AF due on Thurs/Fri...so it suggests that my progesterone levels are now low, before they should be...but they could potentially have been correct when bloods were taken! I guess I will see what the results are today. Any of you ladies had this problem? Is there a way to find out the answer??

 

[Mrs.326]

Good luck MrsWemyss

Hope & MrsB, I think that's a legitimate question that I would definitely bring up with your doctor at your next appointment. They could always prescribe it to be proactive, and it wouldn't hurt anything in the process. Maybe you could request it?

 

[Mrs B.]

Blood results are back but doc hasn't seen them yet...so all I managed to get out of the receptionist was that my Progesterone level was 34. From what the ladies on here have said the docs like to see it over 30? My concern is that my symptoms suggest that I have had higher progesterone this month than normal...so I am hoping the doc will let me repeat the test to confirm if my levels are fine or not. Don't yet know what the rest of the results were like!!

 

[Hope1409]

34 is a great number. I am not sure where you are but in the US, docs like to see it above 15 medicated and 10 un-medicated. Keep us posted once you find out the rest
