TTC #1- Looking for buddies!

[jmack54]

There is nothing worse than just waiting!! Do you have anything fun planned today? At least it's Friday!! I have a good feeling for you love! Everyone gets BFPs at totally different times so stay positive!!!

 

[SunnyBe]

Oh man, I'm horrible at seeing lines!! I hope the ladies in the other thread can do a better job of helping you out on that one!

Have you ever tested before? Did you get lines like that?

 

[babylights]

I do! We have friends in town so I'll be busy all weekend. I'm gonna have a lot of 'splaining to do about why I'm not drinking though!

How is everyone today?? Fun weekend plans?

 

[babylights]

Hi sunny! I don't think I've ever gotten lines on ICs. I'm kinda convinced this is nothing, I just checked my cm and it def has a brownish reddish tinge

 

[SunnyBe]

This not knowing is the worst!! Maybe you can use your hubby's urine to see if the IC's are just faulty or if yours look really different.

 

[jmack54]

Haha!! I'm so glad you have friends in town this weekend!! That will definitely take your mind off it. If the tinges turn into AF at least you can drink with your friends and relax and enjoy the weekend!! And if not, then we will all be celebrating your BFP!!

I also am avoiding some weekend plans that involve drinking haha! I'm hanging out with my baby niece who is my favorite person in the world. and hopefully enjoying some sunshine!

 

[jmack54]

You know what babylights- looking at it again I can see something on the tweaked FRER picture...

 

[babylights]

aww thanks love for your support!! I think I'm just on af-watch at this point. I did a Wondfo with my mom's pee and there's a slight line, much thinner and grayer than mine but still!! At this point I'm like efff this and Wondfos are the devil haha!

Yay for hanging out with your niece!!! You said she's pretty brand new right? Aww that sounds like it's gonna be a great time

 

[SunnyBe]

I hope it isn't so babylights You felt like you were out a couple days ago as well and you're still in the TWW so I wouldn't give up hope just yet.

If AF does show, well there's always next month!

This will probably be my most relaxed month of TTC as I'm way too busy (work, doing stuff around the house, hosting family) to obsess about it. I kinda wish every month was like that lol. I'll start OPK testing on Monday or so. It'll be CD13 so still a couple of days before I expect to see a positive.

Awww jmack, hanging out with your baby niece sounds so much fun. Watch out for baby fever though

 

[babylights]

So I had a huge temp drop, I had some very strange orangeish-red af that just stayed globs in the toilet (sorry), and two ultra-faint positives again. Am I really just that crazy?? Or unlucky?? Is this a chemical?? I'm thinking of asking my dr. if I can go in for a blood test

 

[jmack54]

I'm so sorry I missed this today babylights! I hope you are feeling ok...

Enjoy the weekend with your friends and some drinks! And remember you won't be on an airplane with morning sickness plus you are on the right track now for the first time with your new doctor. Everything is looking up!

 

[SunnyBe]

So sorry babylights It really sucks! Hope you'll stay positive. Like jmack said, everything is really looking up!

 

[babylights]

Hey girls thanks so much for checking on me! I had a bit of a cry but a really great talk with DH yesterday morning and you're both so right, things are def looking up! I had a bunch of symptoms I didn't get into but I'm fairly certain I had a chemical, which of course is sad, but is still heartening bc it means I can get pregnant! So we're counting it as a huge step in the right direction and look forward to seeing what my body does on its own.

jmack how was hanging out with your niece?? That's gonna be so fun when she meets her cousin, your little one, soon!!! And omg - I am so so glad I'm not gonna have morning sickness on that flight! My phobia of throwing up would have kicked in my claustrophobia and would have been a disaster!

sunny that's amazing that you have such fun distractions!!! I really have such a great feeling for you too, this month is gonna fly by toward your bfp!!

 

[jmack54]

Hey babylights! Hope you had an amazing weekend with your friends! Between your positive attitude and your supportive hubby, you will be able to get through anything!

I have such a great feeling for you now that you know what's up with the hormones and you are going on an incredible vacation. Can't wait to be bump buddies very soon

I had so much fun with my niece. She is 10 months old and I spent from like 10am-10pm with her so it was amazing and also exhausting haha. Now that she is mobile it's like a whole new ballgame! It's good preparation

I'm now just waiting for this week to pass by... trying to ignore any signs or temps or anything since I've gotten my hopes up way too much in the past. Just going to see what happens!! My temps should drop Friday or Saturday if AF is coming so just trying to pass the time until then!

When do you leave for vacation again?!!?? I know it's really soon!

Sunny- Have you O'd yet?? Are you using OPKs this cycle?? Good luck!!!

 

[SunnyBe]

babylights! In the end it'll all be worth it. Those tears and heartache, the uncertainty and doubt. Hopefully we'll all look back a year from now and complain about babies crying, lack of sleep, dirty diapers. I'm really looking forward to b*tching about those things!

Sounds like you had a great weekend jmack!! Good preparation indeed

I'll start using OPK's today. No need to use them any sooner in my cycle because I O late anyway. My temp usually goes down for a few days before I get a positive OPK and today seems to be the first of those lower-temp days (although it may be just the daylight saving time difference, who knows!).

 

[jmack54]

Ah gotcha!! Well I hope you get a beautiful positive OPK soon, there is something so satisfying about getting a clear OPK!!

Yes, the daylight savings is screwing with my temping too Glad it isn't a pivotal time in our cycles so we can get on a new schedule.

 

[SunnyBe]

Haha yeah there sure is something special about getting that blazing positive OPK. I always feel proud and have this "woohoo, good job body" moment.

How are you feeling jmack?

 

[jmack54]

Haha exactly!! I hope you get your positive OPK soon and time BD just perfectly this month! How long have you been TTC?

I am feeling pretty normal! Not noticing anything too out of the ordinary. I am feeling a lot more relaxed this TWW than last cycle, not sure why I am struggling a little with the time change though. Feeling sleepy and like work is dragging

 

[babylights]

sunny fingers crossed you get that blazing positive opk soon!!

jmack yay for more relaxed cycles! about a week left til your good news... !

I found out that a good friend of mine is pregnant with her third, and they got pregnant on their first month trying every. single. time! I didn't even think that was even really possible. I found out right after I'd convinced myself that I was completely okay, so today feels a bit...raw. I'm super happy for them, don't get me wrong. It's just.. 😔

 

[jmack54]

Ugh babylights I feel like everrrryone I know is getting pregnant! One of my friends just found out she is pregnant and they weren't even trying and they have been in an on and off relationship for a few years. It's really hard to be genuinely happy for people when you are feeling frustrated. I totally get it.

My BFF and I both went off the pill right around the same time and we are on the same schedule so that makes it easier. And talking to you and SunnyBe of course!

We will all get there!! How are you feeling?? Getting excited about your trip love?
