Trying To Conceive #1 Only Vent Thread

[Mimzy3]

Dear body... I'm only 8DPO, please don't give me false hope by making me want spicy food to the point I had to dip bread in hot sauce just to get a fix. Hot sauce usually makes me dance like a Native American and I hate it, suddenly it tastes delicious. I even had to add black peper to my husbands perfectly spiced boeuf bourignon because it wasn't hot enough. If food is bland, I don't feel for it. Last time that happened this hardcore craving for spicy food was with my last and only BFP that ending in M/C but i was at least 14DPO before that started. Also been feeling the AF is due any day with major cramping but not due until the 21st-22th. 8DPO sounds too early to be having symptoms.... is it?

I don't think its too soon!

I've only been trying for five months, but already whenever I read about someone saying "Oooh, I conceived on cycle #1!" I get jealous and frustrated. It's not that I'm not happy for them (or that I wouldn't be doing the same thing in their shoes!), but... ah, well, I guess you ladies understand.

I have a doctor's appointment the day after tomorrow, because I've had some cycle issues in the past. So who knows what will happen there.

Ok DH and I are trying for #1 and this is so frustrating. AF was supposed to come today and I began with this weird pink/orange/red discharge. I did some reading and it said it could be IB. I got excited, then the flow increased around 3pm today. I went to check my tampon about 15 minutes ago. The liner was full of this clear liquid and the tampon barely had anything on it. Could this still be IB or is it just a light AF? Ugh this is driving me crazy!!! I know poor DH is worried and has no idea what to do about it. I cried today out of nowhere for about 30 min straight. Also I am eating more than DH is. I'm just ranting now...well baby dust to all!!!

Could still be IB. Until you get what you would consider a normal AF I say you aren't out.

Coworker got married a month after me and is already pregnant. Now everyone...keeps looking at me as where my kid is. I have had them come up to me and ask if i was pregnant, they have rubbed my stomach and said I am next and have also told me to get out and "make some babies"...they don't know we are trying and involved with a fertillity doc.

People should really learn to mind their own business. I think the big problem is infertility is still a very taboo subject and we need to make it known that it does exist and that not everyone is able to get BFP after the first try. They need to learn some sensitivity.

Been a few days need to VENT!!...So my FF is really messing with me think partly my fault with not being super consit. with temping, this is my first month charting. But anywho first it had my O date at CD23 then changed it to CD33 now its back at CD23. Either way I'm CD42, if FF is right then DPO 19. Have got nothing but BFN. But having a lot of watery CM think my AF is here and nope just watery. My cervix is till pretty high and feels more on the softer side. Been having cramps on and off since DPO 6 and DPO 10 sharp pains in my ovaries. If i was preg it would be showing up on HPT by now!? So I'm just confused what is going on!???!! Have to wait till next week to get into my Gyno.

I was about to say go to your gyno, but you already are! This happened to me this summer, and I eventually got AF... that was the only time AF was ever late. Now I'm a few days late and I'm scared it's going to happen to me again. I haven't tested yet because I'm too scared to see the BFN.

Did you have the watery cm and cramps too? When did your AF finally come? Do you know why it was so late? Sorry for all the questions!

I honestly don't remember too much, I think I tried to block that whole thing out of my mind because it was so upsetting. I think I had some cramping, but not too much, I don't remember my cm though. I had gone to my gyno, they gave me a quantitative blood test and it was negative so they told me just to wait until I got my period because I'm not pregnant, and if I didn't get it within a couple weeks or something they were going to do an U/S. I think AF was about 3 weeks late or so. I didn't believe them that I wasn't pregnant, I kept thinking "no I'm just one of those people that never gets a positive test their whole pregnancy" (because that DOES happen to some people btw). Then I thought maybe I had a MC because my HCG and prog levels were too low to hold the baby... I guess I will never truly know. This time I have been having cramps, and I have watery/sticky cm. The other morning I had one cramp that was so bad I had to squat on the ground and hold myself. I'm probably going to test on Friday, if no AF but I'm scared this is all just going to happen again so I'm really hoping for 2 lines this time to avoid pulling all my hair out. Let me know how things go for you, I'm really curious! Good luck!

Good luck to you testing soon! I'm still having cramps its just annoying not knowing! I'm prob not preg. just unlucky with a cycle. But if they tell me to just wait till my period comes i'm going to freak LOL I want answers!!! I have been doing some research online and some ladies once they get BFN at doc office they are given med to start their period..i think provera (spelling??) I'll be sure to keep you posted!

My doctor has prescribed me Provera before. It takes a couple of days to work, but it definitely worked for me. I hadn't had a period in almost 4 months when they gave it to me. It was a hellish period, but I guess I had a lot to make up for! They couldn't get my insurance to go through when I went to pick up the Provera, but it was only $4, so I just paid for it.

Just went to pee and had a brown spot on the TP. Praying it was IB and not AF creeping up... I really hope I'm not out...

Random FB vent...
So a pregnant friend of a friend posted as a status yesterday that she was pretty "disappointed" that her baby wasnt born on 12/12/12. She has another LO and she also said she is feeling scared and guilty for having another baby (something about how her baby is not going to be the center of attention anymore)



Wow. I wish those were the worries I had to deal with on a daily basis. Your life is just SOOOO hard

End of vent

Well your temps are still high so keep your hopes up!!!

I had my appointment this morning.

My doctor says because of my history, that if I'm not pregnant by the end of March, he'll start fertility testing. Really hoping we get pregnant before then.

Well no AF yet! But my temp dropped again today so FF changed my O day to cd 24. Which I don't know if that is right since I only have 26-28 day cycles and I had a positive OPK on cd 17... plus O cramps around that day too. FF and I hate each other, definitely not a friend. Hoping AF stays away, I want to test tomorrow before I go out of town, but now I'm scared if FF is right it is too early. I'll probably test anyways...

UGH I know me and FF are not friends LOL but I would trust your OPK's and symptoms vs what FF is telling you! FF changed my O date twice this cycle. Might give you a peace of mind to test before you head out of town.

Yeah that is what I'm thinking because I don't want to be drinking while I'm out and feeling guilty about it, and I won't be able to test again until after xmas. Who knew babies were so stressful before they are even conceived (possibly lol)! When are you going to test?

Yeah I totally know what you mean! I'm not testing anymore can't bare to see another BFN. I'm pretty sure I'm out and just having another wacko cycle. I go to my gyno next week wed. so she'll prob do a test there. Last time I tested I was DPO 18 and it was BFN so pretty sure I'm not DPO 20 now and no AF.
