TTC#2 and SO EXCITED! join me

Banana - ugh the waiting is so hard! GL and fx!!!!

Afm - the spotting is back this afternoon, a bit more than last night and more brownish than pink....more like menstral spotting so now I wondering AF is coming. But if it is, does that mean I def ovulated or could AF show up without ovulating? Thinking if I do get AF I might give soy a try for the new cycle. Going to do some research. I can't stand waiting till Novemeber for a doc to give me clomid....I'm so done with waiting!!! Errrrrrr

 

[MamaMac123]

Isaac - fx for you this cycle! Hope all the test results come back good!

Yes mama I think AF can show without ovulation if you had an anovulatory cycle it would be pretty hard to tell without the bloods & your chart although looks promising on some days on others it doesn't but like you said it can be erratic if you have poas. Actually my good friend Lucy had just had a 50 day cycle & her chart is inconclusive too. She's seeing her homeopath again she was only on treatment for 3 weeks when she got her bfp with her ds. She's trying again in the new year & wants to get sorted before ttc! Have you thought about homeopath? Obviously the soy is going down that route!

Mama-sorry everything has to be so confusing for you. What a pain in the butt! I am keeping my fx for you that it is IB anf not AF!

Hann- so happy that you get to deliver in the hospital of your choice. Sometimes all you need to do is raise a little heck to get what you want!

Banana- hopefully your tww will fly by and end up in a BFP!

Isaac- Hopefully your DH SA will come back ok, but if not, there are lots of vitamins I have been reading about that can help that dramatically! My DH hasn't had a SA but I was thinking of getting him some vits just in case, and I figure, it can't hurt, right? It is quite amazing what vitamins can do (I never realized).

AFM- 10dpo today and BFN! My temp is still up but had the tiniest little streak of brown blood in ewcm last night and first thing this morning, but nothing since then. Isn't 9dpo a little late for IB? Trying to keep my hopes up and stay positive since there seems to be no other sign of AF! Hopefully it is just IB a little later than average! My temp usually takes a huge nose dive the day or 2 before AF, so we'll see...

 

[banana07]

Hey

Elt I think its between 6 & 10dpo normally for IB - all my fingers and toes crossed for you!!! https://www.fertilityfriend.com/Faqs/Implantation-time-and-signs.html

Hann was just thinking this evening your soooo lucky we're usually on the same cycle so you'd be in the tww now!!!

Mamamac - hows the spotting going??

AFM, I'm still only 2/3 dpo same as this morning!!!

 

[IsaacRalph]

Wow elt things are looking really promising for you, 10dpo is really early though your right! Your temps look fab & haven't you had short LP last few cycles? Correct me of I'm wrong hun! Hoping you get that bfp soon, testing tomoz??

My dh takes conception vitamins, has been got about 6 month or so! Hoping his SA is good it was excellent few years ago around 320 million of the little soldiers! He's given up caffeine to see if that helps get our bfp quicker, so who knows! I love this time of the month just leading up to ovulation & feeling that excitement build as i'm forever getting nearer to that bfp!

 

[elt1013]

Thanks ladies...looking through some of the preg charts on ff, IB seems to be pretty common around 9-10dpo. I always thought it was more common around 7, but apparently not. I did have a short LP until I started B vits and it went from 9 to 11 days last cycle, so definately better. I guess my temp tomorrow will be pretty telling since I always seem to get a drop 1-2 days before AF. Could be sneaky AF playing tricks on me, but I hope not!

 

[runnergrl]

I love this thread. I know I havent been posting a ton lately for obvious reasons, but you ladies are so open and honest and just genuinely care about one another. Its really refreshing in today's world. Thanks for welcoming me back in here and I am thinking about and praying for all of us to get our sticky BFP's very soon!

 

[Hann12]

Elt - your temps look amazing!! Really similar to my BFP chart!! I have high hopes for you this month! I got my BFP at 10dpo so you could test tomorrow (no pressure tee hee!!)

 

[IsaacRalph]

I love it too runnergrl! Lovely caring girls on here.I've joined some other threads but I've soon lost interest there're either just way too busy or the girls don't really seem interested in anything but themselves! I always come back to this one & its strange as its where I posted my first bnb comment! Love love love it! Just think in around 2 weeks you'll get your AF & then it begins!

Elt- really hoping your temp stays up today & that hpt has 2 lines, fx'd!

 

[Hann12]

Hi just had my scan, everything looks great, heart was beating rapidly and strong and all looks normal. I mentioned the brown cm and she said it must be implantation related as she could see no other reason. She also said I had no cysts on my ovaries! Both looked totally normal! She was the same person that said I had cysts! Very weird!
Anyway over the moon and just hope it continues to progress well!

[IsaacRalph]

How come my cycle is so way out to everyones on here?? I Feel lonely & need a cycle buddy!

 

[HappyCpl]

Hann - That is wonderful news! How exciting!!! Thank you for sharing with us your little peanut.

Runner - Look what you started I have to echo what you and the others have said. This thread is filled with some amazing, supportive, and very kind woman. You ladies are the best. Hoping things happen fast for you Runner. FX'd!

Elt - Can't wait to see what the next few days bring you!

AFM - I'm completely down and depressed. AF got me yesterday afternoon. I spent the evening just terribly upset. I would have bet money that I was pregnant. I was just that convinced. What a surprise. I told DH I don't want to try for a few months. I desperately need a break. I have been so obsessed lately and it feels like its taking a toll on our relationship. I miss the romance. I miss the fun flirting we used to do. I miss the way we were always so ready to jump each other as soon as we were alone or as soon as we walked through the front door. We have been together 2.5 years but just got married back in April. I think we are going to take a step back until DH is retested and can see a urologist. Then I'll prob start looking into having surgery for my endometriosis.

I'll def be around and praying for you ladies. Thank you for all of your kind words and support.

that AF got you hun! It can hit you really hard when you've convinced yourself your pregnant with all the symptoms especially. I had this about 3 months back so I have learnt my lesson not to listen to my body anymore. As for the break In ttc I think that's fine as you sound done in by it all. Thing is your not really stopping ttc your just not going to be focused on signs & opk's etc but the good thing is you can still make love & still be in with a chance! I so know how your feeling cuz I Feel just about ready to give up! X

 

[runnergrl]

dont give up girls! It happens for MOST women, its just takes some time... Hopefully the rest of us will have October BFP's and July babies!

 

[MamaMac123]

Hey girls!

I love all the posts in here the last couple days warms my heart and I echo them all! I love this thread and am so happy to be sharing this journey with all of you

Runnergrl - thanks for starting the thread...I'm glad to have you back with us...not for the reason of course, but for your company fx for you!!!

Hann - soooo glad your scan went great! I got so excited to see your little bean! Showed DH and we both gave a big "ahhhhhhhh" hehe So fun to see!!!

Isaac- getting close to ov time!!!! Fx!!!!

Happycpl - Sorry about the bfn hun. A break could be a good thing. And so many people say as soon as they stop trying that's when it happens. Get back to enjoying your DH and destress about ttc for a bit.

Elt - temps lookin good!!!!! fx!!!!

Banana - how soon will you test!!?? Any symptom spotting??

Afm - cd1 here folks!!! AF is in the house! Pretty light today but def more than spotting! Good news is she came on her own Was worried I'd need to start taking something specifically to induce it but metformin seems to be doing the trick...great news! Bad news is I really don't think I ovulated. I mean it's possible, but looking at my chart I just don't think so and all the ff charts with pcos I've looked at, even if they have a dip or two, for the most part the temps are up and they clearly ovulate so I'm thinking I didn't. Soooo....I think I'm going to go for it with the soy. I've beenon the vitamins with Vitex in them and not supposed to take soy and Vitex together so I'm going to stop those (I haven't felt they've done much for me anyway) and then probably do soy on cd 5-9 to give my body a full 5 days without Vitex first. Not sure what I'm going to do for dosage....most of what I've read seems that you need at least 150 mg for each of the 5 days and can take up to 200 daily. I've seen a lot of people post that they'll do like 150 or 160 for the first 3 days then 200 for the last 2 so I think I may do that. So excited to have a fresh cycle! And so happy it was a 39 day cycle instead of a 97 day cycle!!! Now if the soy can get me ovulating I may have a real shot this cycle!!!! Yay!!!
