TTC #1 Hopeful and Obsessed! lol

[greenarcher]

I'm shooting for Tuesday, but I might break down and test tomorrow. I'm going to try really hard to hold off. I don't want to deal with squinters! I've had a lot of promising symptoms this month. If I get a negative, this will probably my first disappointing month. The others I expected negative.

Thanks Belle! 1 month, bummer! Does the ultrasound have to be around ovulation?

 

[BelleNuit]

They didn't specify the timing of the ultrasound, I think they are mostly going to check to make sure there are no structural anomalies. I try to time it for just before O though!

 

[greenarcher]

Negative test today (or line eye). I've made a testing thread in the pregnancy test gallery. I'll probably test daily now caved

 

[BelleNuit]

Oooh green I'll have to check out your thread Good luck with testing this round!!

Hey ladies !!!!!

Hope the weekend was eventful and you guys still fit some rest into those two days.

Belle , puma , and green I still got your back ladies. Belle. Hoping for positive results from the scans and testing , letting you know you can move forward without too much or any medical help from docs !

Puma , your Hubbie sounds hilarious ! He's so cute ! He wants to know already damnit !

AFM---my bff had a bridal shower / Bachelorette weekend Saturdday-Sunday so I made cup "Promotes to Auntie" mugs for my 5 besties. They were so excited and can't wait to hear more about my little gummy bear baby.
Ultrasound still scheduled for Thursday. Very nervous but very excited to see little one and the heart beat !

 

[greenarcher]

Aww that sounds adorable!!

 

[greenarcher]

I am trying really hard not to test today, but I've had heartburn all morning, which is a rare occurrence for me.

 

[BelleNuit]

Very special BabyC. Green I hope the heartburn is a good sign!

It's our first wedding anniversary on the 28th! We received an anniversary quilt this weekend which wad made by a close friend if mine. It is so lovely!!!! I have a short week at work as well as I took Thursday and Friday off so that we could properly celebrate!

 

[greenarcher]

I am so jealous! Congrats!

 

[GoldenRatio]

ohhh so jelly here too! i wish i had a short week, but at least long weekend is coming up. I literally fell asleep while driving this morning Seniors and pregnant women shouldnt drive

 

[BabyC4Me]

Belle. I saw the quilt on Facebook ! Love the rich colors ! Very nice

 

[puma1986]

BabyC, Bella and/or Golden: did any of you experience extreme thirst around 8dpo? Like feeling absolutely parched with a dry throat??? I feel so horribly exhausted and can't seem to drink enough water.

 

[greenarcher]

I've heard of that a lot actually! Fx puma!

Being thirsty is a great sign. I have been thirsty for weeks and I drink water alllllll day And my mouth is always dry. Apple juice helps. Kinda.

Keep tracking symptoms !



When do you plan to test puma ?

 

[puma1986]

I tested this morning but was running late so I only glanced briefly at the test. Nothing popped out at me immediately. I'd say I'd have a better chance tomorrow. I refuse to spend any more money on tests though. My internet cheapies will have to suffice until a visible line appears!

I hope so ladies. I'm tired of getting negatives! Thanks for the FX!!!

 

[BabyC4Me]

Cheapies work just as good if not better than those over prices FRER pieces of junk lol

We better get an update !!! I tested 2 days before missed period and got bold like.

9-10dpo may be a winner !

 

[GoldenRatio]

I read that being thirsty is a common and good early pregnancy sign!!!

I didnt get any symptoms before the positive. But shortness of breath and thirstiness were my main early pregnancy symptoms. I go up the stairs, and look like i ran a marathon. Especially would get thirsty during sex hahaha i would be like stoooop, gotta drink water.

 

[puma1986]

Man, guys. I really hope Green, Belle and I all get our BFPs this cycle. Seriously might break down if not.

 

[BelleNuit]

Aww puma I know how hard the TWW can be! I really hope we all get our BFPs soon! It would be so nice to get to be bump buddies and whine about pregnancy together lol.

As an update. It sounds like I'l be able to get all of my fertility testing done reasonably quickly. But there is a minimum 6 week wait for DH's SA because there is such a backlog. In a lot of ways I'm glad we got started on our testing a little earlier. I'd be super upset if we made it to the one year mark only to find out that it would be another 6 weeks just to get the stupid testing done... never mind the wait for the referral to go through to the fertility clinic!

Hopefully we won't need it. But I'm glad we got the ball rolling.
