• Xenforo Cloud will be upgrading us to version 2.3.5 on March 3rd at 12 AM GMT. This version has increased stability and fixes several bugs. We expect downtime for the duration of the update. The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version.

TTC #1 Hopeful and Obsessed! lol

Belle - Dang, 6 weeks? I guess there are some positive aspects of american medicine. Get what you want, when you want it, little to no wait. Then pay out the nose.

Puma - don't worry! We will both get our baby, if not this cycle, then soon! The wait is horrible, I totally feel you, but don't let it get you down!

Golden - that's great to hear! I've had symptoms, but I don't think they're pregnancy related. Today is a thirsty day, but I had a good cry yesterday and I'm probably just dehydrated

BFN last night. Here's the test :P

There's time for that test to turn positive yet Green! And ya, with public healthcare it's pretty much a hurry up and wait philosophy lol. Which is especially maddening for fertility because while you don't pay for basic testing, you pay for literally ALL the other services because it's not covered by our public healthcare system!

My temp today was the exact same for the 3rd day in the row (thermometer works fine, I checked it lol). I think its a little high for FP temps, BUT I think the stability has to be a good sign regardless. Hoping this will be my lucky month! It would be murphy's law.... If I got pregnant this month I'd be due right around the time of my brother's wedding... and I'm a bridesmaid, lol
 
Thankfully we don't have the bridesmaid dresses yet. They don't know we are trying though, and at this point I'm pretty cognizant that I could either be having a baby around the time of their wedding, or possibly hugely pregnant. That's assuming I manage to get pregnant of course lol. Fingers crossed!
 
Belle I am in one wedding August 20 and one Feb 11.

The bridesmaid dress for the August wedding was tight in April. So it's SUPER tight now with the bloat and all.

Hopefully it zips in a couple weeks !

I'm just going to order a maternity high like size 30 for the feb wedding. seein as I will be about 8 months then. WOWZERS.

Lol crazy!!!! I put on 100 pounds with my first due to health issues and I only went from a size 9 to a size 18. A size 30 would be a bit much lol

100pounds!!!! I cant picture you size 18:wacko:

I already gained 2 pounds this week:dohh: it just started:sleep:
 
Damn !!!! 100lbs??? That's a shit load of weight. How did you lose it ???
 
I was 21 at the time. Mostly starvation to get the bulk of it off followed by intense workouts. I HIGHLY recommend not going this route. Especially at our current age and our bodies inability to bounce back. It was dumb - but I was desperate and horribly depressed at the time!
 
Oh boy! I can't imagine a 100 pounds of maternity weight.

I'm feeling cranky today. Feeling like I'll never get a bfp. Ugh. I'm so done with trying!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Belle im positive that you will get pregnant once u get everything tested and know whats up. Even tho Im pretty sure they gonna call urs unexplained infertility and eventually give u clomid which im sure will work.

For me i went for testing really early, like my second cycle of trying because I love getting tested and being tuned with my body. Some ppl try for 3-4 yrs then seek for answers. I think you are doing the right thing to get tested early on:hugs:
 
I'm popping in hoping to hear some positive news. Crossing my fingers Green! That would be exciting....a wedding love baby.

I'm also gaining a lot of weight already. It always scares me. With my son I gained a lot 1st trimester and them slowed down. Gained 33 pounds total. I hope the weight that I'm gaining right now means my baby is sticking. I'm almost 9 weeks and that's about when I seem to lose my babies.

Good luck ladies! Baby dust. No a baby dust storm to those ttc.
 
Well Golden, if they don't find anything, I hope there will be something they can do to help. I'm hoping even more I'll manage to get a bfp before the 1 year mark rolls around so that we won't get a diagnosis of unexplained infertility. That would be so frustrating!!!

DHs SA is booked for Sept 8. Hope we won't need it.

Bella I'm definitely in need of a baby dust storm! I'm getting mighty fed up!

If you're putting on weight that has to be a good sign Bella! I can't wait for you to be out of the first trimester so that you can take a breath of relief!
 
Bella that does sound extremely promising!!!

Belle: I get it and totally sympathize! It will happen. Period. Whether a little added push is needed or not.... You're going to have your baby. My mom always told me she never wanted me. It was clear she didnt as I was growing up, too. Your baby is going to be so lucky because he/she will get to hear how hard their mommy and daddy worked to have them!!! :)
 
Thanks puma, I think you and I have a lot in common. My mom was 17 when I was born. I was the reason she got married. She told me she regretted ever becoming a mother and if she could do it again she wouldn't have had kids. She now lives in Mexico and we don't talk, so I guess she got what she wanted in the end.

I would love nothing more than to get to be a mother so that I can experience what motherhood is supposed to be like.

And honestly, I've made peace with the idea of possibly requiring help. IVF wouldn't be a deal breaker for us anymore. We'll try everything and if it doesn't work then we'll live a completely hedonistic life, which has its own benefits lol
 
You're going to be such an amazing mother. Its amazing how experiencing what you and I have had led us to become much, much, better, I'm really sorry to hear about your mother but I think you're incredible. It's she who has really lost out.
 
I think you're incredible too puma :hugs: I see how hard you work for your family (school, work, and everything else!!). You are an amazing mother already and will be again with your next little one :) I
 
D'awwwww shucks! :)

Did you guys see?!?! I'm so excited.they are creating a new Beauty and the Beast! And Hermione (Emma Watson) from Harry potter is going to play Belle! It looks amazing.
 
:O I had no idea!!! I am so excited!! That was my favorite movie when I was a kid!!!
 
Belle - we'll all get there! We'll all be awesome moms :)

Puma - I didn't hear that! I'll have to check out the trailer. Did you end up testing today??

Here's my 10 DPO test. Shadows for days....
