TTC #1- Looking for buddies!

[tbfromlv]

Oh no Amber. My heart goes out to you please keep us updated.

CT-hopefully that's what's happening! I had the same thing last cycle

Steph- so glad counseling went well!

 

[SunnyBe]

Oh no Amber I really hope the little one is fine! Are they always supposed to see more than just the sac at this stage? Could it be the tech just didn't do it right? I hope you'll soon get some answers. I'm keeping everything crossed for some good news this morning!

 

[CTgirl]

Sunny, how do you get your ticker to show? I've pasted the html code from Lilypie into my signature but it doesn't seem to work :/

Update: NEVERMIND found it! Hehe

 

[steph1607]

Ooooh I want a ticker like that, someone tell me how!!

 

[Dream143r]

Sunny - lol, glad we're on the same page.

TB - glad to know you use FMU with no issues, makes me more confident.

Amber - omg, this hurts my heart. I hope even tho she couldn't see on the scan that your tater tot is baking just fine.

CT - temp still above that coverline. FX

Steph - glad to hear the session went well. We knew it would. A couple more weeks for the blood test results?

AFM - Going to start the BD'ing tonight. Every other day. Party Time.

 

[AmberR]

HCG result was around 72,000. Midwife said that was a normal number and my gestational sac was normal size for how far along I am but baby is not showing up or is too small? I can't remember what she said. I have to get HCG drawn again on Friday. I guess my body might not miscarry naturally since it's still thinking it's pregnant so I may need a d&c, but I don't really feel comfortable making that decision unless I have another ultrasound to confirm. Thank you so much for the support it means a lot.

 

[SunnyBe]

I can't imagine what you must be going through right now That uncertainty is just horrible! When can you go in for a repeat ultrasound? The high hcg plus the normal sized sack sound really encouraging and it still seems there's a good chance that it's just some sort of error, right? I hope you can schedule something before the weekend!

 

[tbfromlv]

I am so sorry you are dealing with this right now. Let us know about your follow up HCG. I guess based on those results would determine if another Scan is needed, right? I am praying for you Amber!

 

[CTgirl]

Amber, I can't imagine how you must be feeling. My heart is aching for you. FX that it was just an error in the first scan. Hopefully you can get another very very soon.

AFM, I had another (small) temp drop today so am thinking it's AF. Feeling very emotional and despondent today. My psychiatrist said yesterday that the emotions could be due to an implantation dip, but I'm thinking it's more likely PMS (not that I usually get emotional before AF – I'm one of the lucky ones). ARGH!

 

[Dream143r]

Amber - I'm hoping the person who did your scan is just a dummie and made a mistake. Like the others have said, you're in my thoughts and prayers.

CT - I'm noticing a few open circle temps on your chart. Are you temping at the same time each day?

Nothing to report for me really. Just waiting to O.

 

[CTgirl]

Dream, I'm temping at 630 every morning without fail. I woke up at 5 and temped then and it was even lower but FF says to go with the temp closest to your wakeup time.

 

[CTgirl]

So it looks like AF has arrived. We were BDing and she came (sorry for overshare). DH says it might be spotting but I don't think so. Problem is it's really early at only 9DPO. This is the first time I've properly tracked my ovulation and always thought it was longer. Damn. I honestly thought the light cramping yesterday and today and the nausea today meant something. I'm so sad.

 

[SunnyBe]

So sorry CT It's pretty early for AF (and might still just be spotting). I forgot, but were you on birth control pills before TTC? I was, and the first couple of months after I stopped, my luteal phases (LP) were very short as well. It's only the last 3 or 4 months where I had AF consistently arrive at 12 DPO (still a bit short, but not as bad as it was a couple months ago). Could be that your hormones are still a bit out of whack? Stress can have a big impact as well.

I hope it's just spotting/implantation bleeding!

Dream, how do you feel? Any noticeable effects of the diet so far?

Tb, that must be quite the difference after a long summer break! I hope it keeps your mind off TTC stuff though

Steph, check out Lilypie to set yourself up with a cool ticker

Amber, anxiously waiting for some good news on your end hun! Please keep us posted and we're here for you if you want to talk!

AFM, still waiting on my blood results...

 

[tbfromlv]

CT/ I usually spot about a week before AF, but my doctor gave me progesterone to stop that. So you may pay attention to the spotting and don't call AF immediately! Just see what your body is doing. But like sunny said, it could just be your body trying to regulate itself.

CD 9 and done with the 100mg of Clomid, so hopefully I O early next week around CD 14/15 this time. After last cycle, I really am hoping for something to stick! My acupuncturist has been doing additional treatments with the original regiment so hopefully that helps too! My class is fun so far! Talkative, but that can be dealt with lol We are lucky that we are less than 2 hours away from being in 100% direct path of the total eclipse so we should get a real good view! Our whole class has special glasses for it! Fun!

 

[CTgirl]

I've never had spotting like this before (usually if it happens in the evening it's full-blown AF by the morning). And still spotting. Plus had a massive temp spike this morning. So weird. So I'm not giving up hope yet!

TB, FX for day 14/15! Glad you've got a nice class - and awesome re the eclipse!

Sunny, when do you expect results again?

Dream, how's the BDing going?

Amber, good luck for having your blood tests today. Am thinking of you!

Steph, let me know if you get stuck with the ticker – it's really cute to have!

 

[steph1607]

CT, that could have been implantation bleeding right?

Yes, I'm really failing with this ticker, I can get the link but not the image

 

[CTgirl]

Steph, I'm really hoping so! There's still VERY light spotting today. Trying not to get my hopes up. Haha, I took a pregnancy test yesterday and was convinced I saw something but DH just laughed at me. If this is implantation it would be too early for a BFP anyway (as far as I know) so I must have been seeing things!

For the ticker, after you've made it, you have a few options. The link you're seeing is the html link. Click next to it where it says "image url". Then copy that and put it into your signature. Save and you're done.

 

[steph1607]

Yay look at me go!

Haha yes, possibly a little early to test, but hey, why not! When will you next test/be expecting AF?

 

[CTgirl]

What a pretty ticker!!! Well done

AF is due on Monday so I will trrrrrrrrry wait for Tuesday. Pfft, who am I kidding?!?!?!

 

[tbfromlv]

CT I read that the most common day for implantation is 9dpo. I think that was when I had a little implantation dip last cycle too. fXd for you!!! You should wait two more days to test, but I'm sure you're like me and will want to test everyday lol
