I hope things work out English

Hi Ladies!

Englishgirl I hope everything works out for you as well.

An update on me.... I am 23 days late today, took a test about two weeks ago and it was a bfn. I don't know when I should test again.... The other night I had this very very vivid dream that I was going into labor then I was holding my little baby and I was very emotional. I have never had a dream like that before, I have only gotten as far as a positive pregnancy test. Do you think that this is related? Plus I have been really stuffy and mild headaches and backaches (Don't know if those last two are signs cause I get headaches and backaches all the time) I am just so confused right now. Any type of advise would help.

Hope everyone else is doing well....

Bby - sometimes people don't get a positive HPT but a blood test will show pregnancy.. So maybe test again and if you still don't have an answer make a doctor's appt.

English - Any news?


AFM- I took a test on my birthday (may 24) and got a positive! Birthday BFP I hope it all works out.. I already feel much more positive about this one, not sure if I'm just trying to be or if it's real intuition but we'll see. I will get an early scan at 8 weeks so that will be around the end of June..

AWWW!!! Congrats SM!!! Hope you have a happy and healthy 9 months! and Happy belated birthday! Best present ever!

Congrats Susan!! I'm so very happy for you! Praying for a sticky bean

Bby, like Susan said, sometimes the HPT's won't pick up pregnancies in some women. Maybe take another, I especially recommend the First Response brand or even some of those internet cheapos like you get from earlypregnancytests.com, those are really sensitive.
If you keep getting bfn's you can schedule an appointment with a doctor.....but...so you went from bleeding all the time to hardly bleeding at all, being 23 days late and all... did the doc put you on meds (sorry I forgot!) for the constant bleeding?
Oh and I had one of those dreams when I was TTC too, but I can't remember if I was in that TWW that eventually led to my bfp. Good luck and keep us posted!

As for me.........For those of you who haven't read my journal.... it's a girl!!

 

[MissSazra]

Yay! Congrats SM! What fantastic news! Xx

 

[flyingduster]

YAY!!!! SMFirst; CONGRATS!!!! Soooooo happy for you hun!!!

And bby, I'd be seeing a doctor or testing more... I hope all is sorted out for you ASAP hun!!! I had a really vivid dream like that when TTC too, but like Sideways, I'm not sure if it was on my BFP cycle or not!!


I'm looming in on half way tomorrow, which is a bit scary! But exciting...

 

[rducky]

English, fingers crossed for you! The wait must be very difficult.

Bby, I would test again with a First Response, then no matter the result, make another appointment with the doctor. Good luck!

Susan, congrats on your BFP! I'm so excited for you. It must have been wonderful to have that happen on your birthday. So, your doctor will be following you more closely this time due to your history?

 

[SMFirst]

Rducky - Well, I'll get an early scan, but I don't think I'll have to take any extra supplements or anything (I know some people take aspirin and progesterone..)

We'll see.. I made an appt with my doctor for next week (June 3)

Well, I have everything crossed for you! Please keep us updated with how things are going. Do you have any symptoms?

 

[SMFirst]

Well, my BBs have been tender, and I didn't have that last time.. And I have a very faint feeling of queasiness, but I could just be imagining that

I do feel hungrier lately, and I think my sense of smell is heightened (the cat food was not very pleasant this morning and normally it doesn't bother me) and I could smell this weird "wet wood" smell the other night that my DH couldn't - turns out it was a leak in a pipe in our laundry room! So good thing I noticed it!

But trying not to focus on symptoms - that's what really upset me last time, knowing I should have some and didn't...

 

[BbyLove5410]

Hey Ladies!

I hope you all are doing well....

AFM.... No sign of AF. I have been having heartburn, queasy stomach, crampy feelings in the lower abdomen and slight pains on my sides and the other night it felt as if something was pulling my naval from the inside.... However, no tender bbs. So as of today I am 29 days late and if I am pregnant I would be 8 weeks and 3 days. I am going to call my Gyno today and ask if I can request an ultrasound to see about the cysts in my ovary and to see for sure if there is a baby inside of me.... Lol. I have taken a test a few days ago and it was negative. So I am not to sure on what to think. Any opinions would be great....

Thank you all!

 

[SMFirst]

Bby - sorry for all the confusing stuff going on! Definitely a good idea to see a specialist.. I don't really know what a negative HPT and missing AF could mean, but if it means you are pregnant that would be spectacular! If not, then I think getting in to see someone will be good because they will be able to give you medicine or something to reset the clock and also put you on a better track to conceiving in the future...

Best of luck!

Thank you SM! How are you feeling?

 

[SMFirst]

I feel normal. BBs still a little sore.. I'll only be 5 weeks tomorrow (time seems to go so fast for everyone else!)..

Well just keep your head up.... I know the feeling though.... Just try to stay positive....

Hey Bby... I had a situation like that last year remember? The doc had to prescribe me progesterone for a week so my period would be jumpstarted. However, we both knew that I hadn't ovulated yet that cycle because my BBT had been in the 97's for several weeks. Most post-ovulation temps are above 98. Have you tried taking your temp a few mornings in a row to see where you are in your cycle? It would at least help you know if you are pre-ovulation or post-ovulation. Because the post-ovulation part of your cycle (luteal phase) is very, VERY rarely longer than just a couple weeks.

hey, ladies. So, things are moving quickly at the RE office. I feel like I live there! I've had 2 appts this week and have another test tomorrow morning. A painful one, so keep me in your thoughts. My hsg (another painful one) is on Monday morning. Then, I'm done! After Monday, we'll go in for a consultation and see what the tests showed, and hopefully schedule an iui.

 

[Sideways 8]

Wow Rosa! I've heard the HSG's aren't the most comfortable thing, what about the other test, what kind is that? Either way, hang on girlie because that baby is right around the corner!!
