Ttc #1 Positive thinking buddies, sticking together. (13 BFPs, 2 angels)

Michelle have you gotten any news back yet? Hoping for the best!

Hanrh do you think you're close to O day? Can't wait for your tww!

Tiny have you gotten any other info? Maybe going in for a third blood draw soon?
 
Hi Laura - how are you doing?
I'm still waiting for o day. No sign of it yet as my monitor is still showing low. Very unlike me as I usually o on cd15 every cycle! But I suppose it's all been messed up following the misscariage. Not quite sure when to count cd1 from the be honest so perhaps that's throwing it off!!
 
Only went up to a 23 from an 18 3 days before. Still waiting on him to call, but I'm sure now it is just stop the progesterone and move on to the infertility specialist.
 
Oh tiny I'm sorry. How are you now? Did you hear back??
 
Just to stop the progesterone. He will write a referral letter tomorrow when he is back in the office. Will test again in a few days to see if it is back to 0
 
Oh I'm so sorry Hun. :hugs: this roller coaster of Ttc is so stressful and heartbreaking at times. I have been wondering how I'm going to keep continuing recently but we have to all believe one day we will hold our baby rainbows! I hope your doc can help. I'm so glad he is being proactive for you!
It might sound like something you really don't want to do but something's that have been keeping me going are booking myself little 'treats' every month. I.e. Yesterday I had a massage and facial, last month a pedicure, I've even done a cupcake making course! I've also planted a rose tree for all my babies outside my front door. It puts a smile on my face to see it flowering every time I leave and come back.
 
Hanrh that must be so confusing! Hope you get your o day very soon!

Tiny so sorry to hear :( maybe there is still a slight chance of it working out as it did at least go up? If not I hope you get some answers from a specialist, mine diagnosed me with pcos right off the bat!
 
Nope. I'm bleeding, so hopefully it will just go quick.

Thanks Hanrh, that is so beautiful that you have rose bushes for your babies. I thought about doing that, and I did get 2 and plant them last time, unfortunately I don't have a green thumb and they are dead :(

The treat idea is what I'm trying to do, but our "treat" after the second was a cruise, which was great, but I'm sunburned now, so a massage sounds awesome, but I think I'll have to wait for my sunburn to be gone. And I feel guilty spending money after the cruise, but what I told my husband is that each month I'm not pregnant is another month I'm working, so I shouldn't feel guilty.

I wish you were closer, we could do a girl day!
 
So sorry tiny :hugs: I think you definitely shouldn't feel bad about treating yourself a bit after what you've gone through. Most important part of all of this is making you feel good!! I know when I don't want to spend money I just buy a facial from the store and do a pamper myself day :) paint my toes, do my hair and makeup all nice, maybe then you and your oh can go out for a romantic dinner!
 
Aw I love that idea about the pamper day! Over here we have a site called groupon (not sure if you have similar?) and it shows lots of really cheap deals for pamper days etc. agreed we defo need to look after ourselves at times like this as hard as it might be!!
 
Yes, we have Groupon too, and I love it. I didn't think to look for spas on it, that is a great idea! I may book a facial for tonight, I've never had one.
 
I wanted to pop in with a quick update from my appt on Monday....

They were able to see the baby. Unfortunately, the baby is measuring a week and a half behind. It should be measuring 7 weeks 2 days and it was measuring 5 weeks 5 days. We also saw a teeny, tiny heartbeat.

The doctor is still pretty sure there is most likely a chromosomal issue and that it won't be a successful pregnancy, but doesn't want to do anything yet since we saw a heartbeat. I go back next Monday again to see how much/if there is growth by then. In good news, I don't have to get bloodwork drawn again! He will just go off of the ultrasound.

So fx again that the baby has a growth spurt in the next week and was just super-shy about growing.

I have been having really light brown spotting both today and yesterday, so that does worry me a bit. No cramping or anything though.

Hanrh, I love that idea! Pampering or giving yourself a treat is a great idea! If this one turns into an angel baby, I know I'll definitely be needing to treat myself.

Nope. I'm bleeding, so hopefully it will just go quick.

Tiny, sorry but I hope it goes quick! :hugs: Also, that's a great perspective to have!
 
Seeing the heartbeat is definitely a great sign! When is your next scan scheduled for?
 
Next Monday! Now I'm actually wondering it the spotting may be from the ultrasound on Monday.. Maybe it slightly irritated my cervix? Did some googling and it seems like it's happened to others.
 
Yep! I know as long as it's brown it's nothing to worry about, old
Blood :) Dtd can do that as well
 
Just passing by to see how you all are.

Sorry to hear your sad news Tiny :hugs: TTC is definitely a rollercoaster. Thinking of you.

Michelle, I hope your little bubs proves them all wrong!

Fingers crossed that baby grows for you Michelle! If you are not cramping, then I wouldn't worry. So great that you got to see a heartbeat!
 
Heartbeat is a great sign let's stay positive n pray for the brave baby fxfxfx!!!
 
Michelle praying hard that little bubs has that growth spurt for next week! Like all the other ladies say, a heart beat is a great sign!!! :hugs:
