[mommax3]

O ya and he changed my Due Date.. It is now October 28th instead of october 25th.. I am not sure why he only moved it 3 days.. But I am ok with it.

They moved my due date with my youngest too and it was only like 2 or 3 days i just dont get the point
I think it's sweet your hubby went with you while you got your blood drawn. I think I asked before and you probably already answered but when was your TR? Im just curious because It seems it's like 6 months after TR that woman get there bfp and im approaching my 6 month mark so i hope I can join the preggo momma club that you and TTC are in When will you get your results from your bloods?

It's been a crazy couple of days, but a GOOD kind of crazy... Life is back to normal this week, thank God. I sure have missed you ladies!

Okay, I am going to try reading back to catch up...but I am so far behind, I don't know if completely catching up is possible! I am going to try, though.

I'll post again when I am finished reading! It may be a while...teehee...

 

[Sagapo75]

I am glad I am back today...your HSG is today! I am anxiously awaiting to see how it went...

 

[Sagapo75]

Hi Ladies! Okay, so I've done my reading:

TTCBaby: I saw your post about your family not knowing you are expecting. I haven't even told my family that I am TRYING...so I understand. My husband's family knows...and they are thrilled! My husband is an only and he has NO cousins...he's the last one in his family unless we have a baby...so they can't wait. I am very anxious to know how your appointment goes today. Let us know as soon as you know. I am sending good thoughts and vibes your way!

Tater: I am thinking of you and your HSG! Can't wait to hear how it went. And I saw what you said about no more testing before late AF and I am right there with you! No more testing for me until I am officially late... And I am SO GLAD you quit smoking! WOOHOO! Hopefully your hubby will quit too very soon.

Faith: SO SORRY THE WITCH GOT YOU! I wish I had started temping/charting before my TR too. It would have made things easier, I think. And I saw your posts about flat temps. I've had them a LOT too. Not this chart...but my past ones. My doctor said that flat temps are FINE...as long as you see a shift in temps when you ovulate, that's all that matters. He said flat temps to him actually mean that you aren't under much stress and that is good for baby making...I hope you are having fun in FL. It is so cool that your husband is a sculptor!

Momma: WHAT?!?! Your doctor thought he left a needle in you???? Holy moly! I am glad you scheduled your HSG. And I read your post about the forest down under...hahahaha!

Dash: I am glad your mom is better! And so glad you finally got AF! Now you can start TTC! And it took me until the middle of January before I felt good enough to exercise again...and my TR was October 15th. I am happy to report though that I have lost 9lbs in the last 2 weeks...just doing lots of treadmilling low fat/low calorie...I am going to lose 10 more...just because...I am either going to be skinny or pregnant this year...haha.

Sweetlissa: Yaaayyyyyy! A BFP! That is so wonderful! Congratulations!
And I think it is sweet that your hubby went with you to your blood draw.

Momma & Tater: Y'all cracked me up talking about your down under...hahaha... My hubby likes the landing strip...so that is the way I keep it ALL THE TIME...but what a pain! I would love to get it lasered off! The things we do for our men...and besides it being a lot of work and maintenance, this may mean I am nuts, but I always worry that when I have to go to the doctor...that they will think I am a hoochie because I shave down there...hahaha...

As for me... I saw you guys talking about AGE. I wish I was still 27...or even 30! I just turned 36 on Friday...AGHHHHH! But, thankfully, I really don't look my age...when I tell people how old I am, they are always shocked and think I am younger. So far, so good...no lines on my face....I attribute that to genes only...my family looks younger than their ages too.

My chart has been CRAZY this month. So much going on...and for some reason, I have had trouble sleeping and it has caused my chart to go insane. My chart actually had me as ovulating on day 9, but I took it off because I know I haven't really ovulated yet...I know it is coming soon though.

Last month, I tried primrose oil and mucinex to help with EWCM...I normally don't have very much. But this month, I have done absolutely NOTHING and I have had more than I have had in YEARS. Weird, huh?

Thank you! It's good to be back! Half the time, I forget to notate 'exercise' on my FF chart...but I try to do it at least 4 times a week...and at LEAST one hour each time...today I did two....

Hi, I had my TR on October 15th 2011. This was my 4th cycle. I thought it was never going to happen. I was also on my 2nd round of clomid. And my doc was going to do a HSG next cycle.. LOL.. I hope you get a BFP soon.. I hope all of you ladies.. I need some women to join me..

 

[tatertahelon]

Hiya girls!!! I missed a lot today and I'm sure there's NO way I'm going to remember what I wanna say all in one post...so there will be multiple ones for SURE!!!!
SAAAAGGGAAAA!!!! yay!!!!! SOoo glad you are back

Ok had my HSG and SA today..let me 1st talk about the SA hahahahahahahha It's too funny!!!!! Ok, so after a friend told me that there was German porn and christian music I started praying!!! Praying that WE could get him done together and not rely on porn which he really doesn't care for AT ALL anyway...and God heard...we got to go in this tiny room together, had low lighting and a lil red leather couch!!! It cracked us up..we got a small cup for the specimen and got left alone!!! we laughed ~~A LOT and had fun ~really~not something we've ever done before!!! so he got done!! I showed him my (.)(.) and it didn't take too long..so that was that...off to the hospital for the HSG and it was NOT like any horror stories that I've ever heard...I'm thinking I'm the only one that's had one so far~right? Well, anyway it's just like a pap, only a lil more emphasis ...like the clamp was a lil diff and that was the part I didn't like~but he clamped me open and inserted all these things in and then that was that...he took the clamp out and we just waited...now it wasn't a U/S like I had thought..it was an x-ray..so we waited on the radiologist. when he came in he used the cath he had put in and inserted the dye..it's NOT radioactive or harmful in anyway and you don't have to put off ttc now once the dye started to hit the tube it became icky...all of you have given birth that was EXACTLY what it felt like for like 20 sec it was like a REALLY bad contraction at it's peak..but was much shorter and then that was it..it was done...the tubes were wide open
the doc pulled everything out, gave me a pat on the back and a pad and I was on my way...he was 1hr late so by the time he started to finish it couldn't have been more than 7min....it was totally doable...I had NO cramping after I sat up/got dressed and feel totally fine tonight..I did take a darvocet I had left over from the TR and I got real sleepy so as soon as we got home I crashed, then my puter was down, but I feel on top of the world!!! Hoping DH has some left for ME tonight
So, momma, your next..do NOT get yourself all worked up..the prep for it took longer than the dye test thing did, and you can put up w/ a really bad partial contraction !!!!!!

I DIDN'T get razor burn woot woot and looks nice down there, I must
say
I usually DO wax a couple times a summer, just bikini area for beach and stuff but never in the winter and NEVER a brazillian...hair IS put there for a reason, to protect, preserve and NOT itch!!!!!! My DH is kind of a dirty hippie...that's what I like to call him...sooo hairy legs and other areas DO NOT deter him...it's kinda nice b/c I don't have to rush to the every time we are going to make out..but It DOES feel really great to "clean up" and feel sexy too!!! he likes either, but doesn't care either way!!!!!

awww faith, sorry gotcha...figured by your chart..but Ugh, that lil up rise after those flats, I thought for sure.....

Dash, how you girl?! How's af...you feeling OK? i know a few of you said it was BRUTAL after surgery....just wanna make sure you're doing OK..you should be pretty close to done??

I don't know what anyone else said right now
but I'm burning my potatoes and my kids are beating the crap outta each other..I'll be back after dinner say more

love ya girls!!!!!!!

 

[mommax3]

Sweet lisa wow!!! there is alot of us october TR girls on here! I totally know how ya feel about thinking it's never going to happen Im starting to feel like that and if im lucky enough to get preggo again im going to be on such a high
Tater yay!!!! thats so awsome and hell yeah I can handle a little contraction for some tube cleaning I hope mine are wide open like yours!!!

 

[mommax3]

[chica0126]

ok ladies...i gotta a question for all of u...i was wondering what type of surgery did most of u have for ur TR??? did u have the laproscopy TR or did they cut u open like a c-section??? i am curious which procedure is better??? but as long as it works and u have healthy open tubes would it really matter what type of TR procedure is done???? i am all full of questions...sorry ladies...hope i don't bore u...

 

[FaithHopeLove]

Saga! welcome back girl!! we've missed you AND a belated H A P P Y B I R T H D A Y I hope it was a memorable one Congrats on the weight loss...I'm jealous I have got to get more disciplined

Tater: I'm soooo happy your tubes are open I think you'll be having a Christmas baby Glad the SA was doable as a duet

Dash: It's fun that our cycle are close, I know Momma will be joining us quickly Saga & Tater are pretty much on the same (opposite of us) cycle as well! Makes it kinda fun as someone(s) are always in the *near testing* and *near O* time...keeping things exciting around here

Sweetlissa, sounds like you have a very sweet little boy, looking out for his mommy..what a cutie

 

[TTCbaby2011]

Saga: Glad to have you back! Sounds like you are doing great!!

I had a small incision below my bikini line. Its was nothing like a c-section incision.

Yeah~hooray!!!!! I've never had a Christmas baby beforethat would be really fine with me

it IS really great how we are all either on the same cycle schedule or totally opposite, we do it the buddy system way!!!!! I like it...do NOT know what I'd do w/ out this lil family we got going on!!!! I love it and appreciate it sooo much!!!
I was trying to think what my dr office told me the cost would be for the HSG~ya know..JFF and It was just under a thousand but I don't remember exactly..they said like $965 or $956..somewhere in there..but I'm thinking I've paid more than everyone for everything so far and this is the 1st of the procedures the ins is actually paying....our ins is through the state..AND they even submitted the SA to ins and we didn't even have to pay a co-paybut I'm guessing we'll get a bill for that....

Hiya chica, where ya been girl!??!
I had mine done like a c-section...didn't bother me though, all my births have been c-sect's. He cut me in the same scar as where I deliver and removed the old one...so that was bonus..
You are NOT a bore...we all have LOTS of q's~never hesitate to ask!!!

Hi sweet girl!!!!!
Can't wait to hear about your blood work!! How ya feeling?!
Thanks~it DOES feel sooo free to NOT be smoking!!!!!
love ya girl!

 

[Dash]

On my phone, excuse the typos...

Faith- it will be awesome having somebody on the same cycle! I have been O'ing late for some reason...well, I guess I have. Been doing everything late.

Chica- I had the bikini line incision type of surgery. My incicison ended up being about 4 inches. Recovery was no worse than the laproscopic surgery I had before, and I requested the bikini line type of surgery after talking to my doc about what he preferred and why. The surgery is tedious even when you aren't trying to do it laproscopically....to me, the end result was most important.

I'm doing good! MS sure has being kicking my butt todaythumbup:which is a good thing!) I'm so glad that your HSG went great!! I believe you'll be pregnant in no time!! Plus not smoking will increase your health.

 

[sweetlissa]

I also had the bikini cut. It wasn't bad. At the time my doc also ran dye through my tubes to make sure they were open.
