TTC#2 and SO EXCITED! join me

[MamaMac123]

Totally off topic but had to share the laugh.

I'm at work this morning and on break with a few coworkers. One pulls me off to the side to tell me I have a whole in my jeans. When she says whole, I think a whole beside my pocket which normally happens with my jeans. Always has. So I go to the restroom to check it out. This is not just a whole, the whole side of my pocket is ripped!! My pretty bright blue panties just a shining.

So now I have a jacket wrapped around my waist and praying that this split doesn't run down my leg. Lol

Note: These jeans are not too tight and I just bought them a few months ago.

Lol oh gosh you poor thing! That stuffs the worst! GL!!!!!

 

[MamaMac123]

Alliesmom - I'm so sorry hun. Glad you came back to us though. Hang in there!

Happycpl thats a funny story!

I've now had a bit more spotting - probably 3 x 50p worth so have started a thread to see whether people think its soy related. Its just a bit strange that its after ovulation. I googled and people said they had it before.

 

[AllisMommy]

Thank you ladies for the positivity

I am 5dpo-6dpo now...I guess. Some people say it takes longer for their cycles to kick in after a miscarriage. but FF told me different the other day. Here's to hoping.

Hann...have you Bd'd a little rough at all lately? I have had that little spotting before, and it was always after sex...or later in the day or the next morning...sometimes I think OH gets ahead of himself.... lol!

My temp dropped again today, not a lot but it should have risen so either my previous temps earlier in the month were inaccurate because I took them at different times or I haven't ovulated. If I had started temping at cd 9/10 I had 3 days where I was 36.48/50, and my cd 1 was 36.48. My temps now are 36.68-72. So in theory I could have ov if you just look at cd11-17. However the temps I recorded from cd 3-10 were higher at 36.5-65.
I guess I continue to opk, BD, temp and see what happens. Next month I'll temp at exactly the same time each day. I'm annoyed now that I didn't do that this month but I didn't think an hour would have much difference. Also last night I had to get up twice in the night with my DD but I can't do anything about that, guess it may have affected my temp though?
Anyway all leads me to be happy that I have the blood test next week so I have more information. I'm really fed up now of not knowing if I'm even ovulating!!

 

[Hann12]

Just been sat here thinking about it and the temps I took between cd 3-10 were taken between 6.15-7.00am and I had had the odd glass or two of wine in the evenings as for a lot of that time I had AF. Then from cd 11 I've taken my temp at 5.45am-5.55am and had no alcohol. Do you think that would account for the discrepancies? I'm half tempted to dismiss the temps cd3-10 and see if FF says I've ov. What do you think?

I think so yes! Whenever I temp later i'm always warmer sometimes by 0.5 degrees! Boy sure about the alcohol really as I hardly drink. Bleeding stopped?

 

[Hann12]

Thanks, I'm thinking it must make a difference as it seems too coincidental that cd 2 was exactly 36.48 at 5.45am and then I got exactly the same reading at that time two days this week before ov. I might write the temps down so I have them to revert to in case it goes down again tomorrow but then dismiss on FF and see when it says I ov.
No spotting since about 2.30pm yesterday. I couldn't even say it was a bleed, just a tiny tiny amount of pink twice mixed with cm. strange!
How are you today?

 

[Hann12]

Just taken them out, looks much more like it now. If it ends up that my temp goes back down then I have them written down and will tell dr. I'll take my temp over the next few days at 5.45 and see how that goes.

yeah that looks better hopefully you will get your crosshairs soon!! I'm fine just feeling really periody which is normal and i have quite a long LP so AF could be tomoz or mon! Will be glad to get this cycle out of the way, it seems i've known for ages that i'm not pregnant this month

 

[Hann12]

Its funny how time drags at certain parts of the month! I think I'm now 2/3 dpo and its gone fast so far because its not confirmed. I'm lucky that in the 2ww this time its my DD 1st birthday so its going to keep me very occupied, plus she started walking yesterday (think in a couple of weeks there will be nothing stopping her!), so I'm hoping it will fly by. I don't have much confidence this month in a BFP however I feel like I'm better equipped for next month now I know what I'm doing. You never know though....

You'll have AF before you know it then you'll be able to start again! Plus you have your new plan this month which will hopefully work.

 

[melissasbump]

Faint line on opk this morning, woo hoo!

 

[Hann12]

Yay Mel that's exciting! And right on schedule - get BD!!

 

[ooSweetPea]

to you hann - temping is such a sensitive thing and so many factors can have a huge effect on accuracy! Fx'd you have already caught the eggy!

Issac I still have fx'd for you too - not out yet sweets!

Mel hopefully they darken up soon for you!

AFM got my + OPK this morning (2 days late) and so begins the BD marathon - thank god it's the weekend because this last work week wiped me out totally! Have been doing every other day for past week or so and now will do everyday til temp rise - fxfxfxfxfx!

 

[MamaMac123]

Hann, sounds like you're on the ball with everything. Hope you get your crosshairs!

Went for my ultrasound this morning. Naturally and as expected te ultrasound tech told me nothing! I had hoped they'd at least let me look at the stupid monitor but nope. So now I'm stuck waiting till the 31st till I see my doc. :sigh:

Hubby and I dtd yesterday and after I had quite a bit of bleeding, much more that the previous spotting. I got all excited thinking the Vitex was getting my AF going finally, but by the time we went to bed last night it had stopped and so far nothin today. Ugh! Seriously this evil devil of a cycle will NEVER end!!! feeling so deflated and frustrated right now

Hang in there babe, you'll be on to the next cycle in no time

 

[ooSweetPea]

Mama - where is that damn witch?! And so annoying about the scan - although expected not knowing anything can be so frustrating. Roll on 31st - and many to you sweets.

 

[melissasbump]

Good luck this weekend Sweetpea!

Mama, hope AF shows up for you soon so you can move on.

Hann, wow you seem to have all bases covered! Its all so confusing isnt it? Well hopefully you are in 2ww now. Are you having a party for Annabelle next weekend? Can you believe our babies are nearly one? where did the time go? So wanna be bump buds again!!

 

[Hann12]

I know Mel I want to be bump buds again too! Yes party this time next week - fingers crossed the weather behaves, or at least doesn't rain all day! When is H's?

Sweatpea - you have def got your bases covered with the BD! I haven't done it as much as you as DH was out during ov time (typical!) but there's always next month!! Good luck!

Mama - how frustrating, I would be annoyed about the scan too but hopefully the next 2 weeks will fly by and that its good news. Hope AF arrives soon too. I remember being so frustrated having no AF for weeks after I stopped BC - think it was 13 weeks, ended up drinking raspberry tea and taking vitex and I got there. I was worried too though.
Its so stressful not knowing whats going on inside you isn't it?

Issacralph -hope you are having a good weekend, not long till the dreaded witch

I REALLY hope tomorrow I finally get crosshairs! As long as these temps stay up. Once I get it I might stop temping, I don't think I can cope with a 2 ww monitoring it all. I know you only do the fertile week don't you IssacRalph? I have the blood test next week so if there's a problem I'll find out from that anyway.
