TTC#2 and SO EXCITED! join me

[elt1013]

I called and got an appt for next Friday, so it is a little bit of a wait, but not as bad as I was thinking it would be. Atleast I will get some answers pretty soon.

 

[MamaMac123]

Morning everyone!

Marie - Love seeing that scan! So much fun!!!

Elt - glad you got a doc apt hopefully you get some answers. It's so frustrating not knowing what your body is doing.

Isaac - hope you get a good temp rise tomorrow! Fx for a bfp this cycle! You earned it for sure with all the "Monica" BDing!!!

Banana - I'm so sorry hun.

Runnergrl - fx and prayers for you. Hope you won't need that d&c afterall and can get right back to trying this cycle.

Hann - sounds like a fun weekend planned! That'll be nice. Good luck with te secret keeping how long will you guys wait before telling everyone?

Afm - well last night my mild cramping became wicked cramping! It was odd feeling though...sort of a cross between menstral cramps and the aches you get the day after a good ab work out. Really weird and the worst of it was in higher up abs where menstral cramps are usually lower. At their worst last night I could feel them in my low back as well. From what I've read this morning some women feel a pinch or twinge when the follicle ruptures and some feel cramps after that as the egg travels through the Fallopian tube. Some women just feel one or the other and some feel both or none at all. Also I guess soy can amp up the ov pain. I can't imagine ov always feeling like that...I had planned to b last night but was in too much pain to do it! We did it several times on weekend though and this morning the pains were still there but more dull so we dtd before we got up. Hopefully if it was ov we didn't miss the egg! But 2 things make me wonder...first off still seem way too soon to ov. 2nd, the pain was all over, not just one side. The only thing I can think is if it was ov then maybe I got an egg from both sides??? Not gonna lie, that would be awesome! But I doubt it cause I'm just not that lucky! Haha

I have a couple people's comments that said they had cramping with soy for days leading up to ov after taking soy so maybe it's still on its way. My opk yesterday was negative...wouldn't it have been positive if I was so close to ov??

One up...I took a warm bath last night and it totally made the cramps go away. I felt so much better...till I got out! They came right back just as bad. But nice to know the bath helped so much...maybe a water birth really is a good call or me! Haha Guess we'll see what my temp does in next day or two.

 

[runnergrl]

Good luck with your scan today Isaac! Hope to see that temp rise tomorrow. Sounds like you did your part BD wise

 

[IsaacRalph]

Banana- so sorry this wasn't your month, keep strong & think it will all be worth it!

Runnergrl- i'm excited you got your AF as hopefully it will clear everything away so you don't have to have d&c! Hoping they'll check your bloods when AF finished.

Mama- those pains sound horrid, I had to use hot water bottle last night as ov pains were off the scale! Hopefully you will Defo get to ovulate this month if you haven't already! Fx'd

Han- Aww your weekend does sound nice, I love just us time with me & dh but its a rarity! How exciting your going to your booking appointment, enjoy I loved going to all the apps & scans when I was expecting ds.

Elt- sorry about yet another bfn, looks like this cycle had just generally been rather whacky, but you should get back to your normal cycles as soon as AF shows! Glad you got gp app but hopefully you'll either have bfp or AF by then.

Afm- had my scan few hrs back & its all good news. Lining nice & regular & thick which is such a relief as I was worried cuz I have light periods. Sonographer who I knew quite well from previous scans also confirmed the likelihood that I have ovulated, probably yesterday, going from the fluid she could see surrounding my right ovary! She said sometimes the follicle can still be seen but sometimes they bunch up really quickly which she expects in my case, hence the fluid! Totally had awful right sided pain so I totally know which side I ovulate from too. Bonus as I was in such a good mood I treated dh to yet another BD just to wrap it all up this month! I'm feeling very positive now that its all just a matter of time & hopefully will get bfp soon along with all you lovely ladies.

Thanks runnergrl i'm hoping that I get bfp before they schedule me in for a "hycosy"think
that's how you spell it? ultrasound with die to check tubal patency! Hope your feeling a bit more positive hun

 

[Hann12]

Thats great news about the scan IssacRalph!! Really hope you get the bfp this month now.

Banana - I'm sorry she got you, I know you were expecting it but its still rubbish. Its nice that you and runnergrl get to be cycle buds though!

Elt - glad you have an appointment lined up

Mama - I reckon your body is preparing to ov, if the opk was negative it must still be to come. All sounds very positive for you. I really have my FX for you!

[MamaMac123]

Welcome back Mummyclo!!

Isaac - soo good about the scan!

Hann - thanks

Good news in my camp! Opk was still negative at 9 am and 1 pm today BUT I have been checking cervix and cm throughout the day...at 9 cervix was low, firm and closed and cm was sticky and opaque. At 1 cervix felt a bit higher, firm and closed and cm was same sticky opaque. At around 3 the sticky cm was gone and it was just wet and clear. Just now I checked again (it's sort of addicting like poas! Haha) and my cervix is high, softer but still firmish and definitely open! And my cm...perfect ew!!! Stretchy and thin and clear!!!! It's NEVER been that way! Anytime I've reported Ewcm before it was always stretchy but still opaque. I'm so excited really hope this means ov is on its way!!!!

wow mama this along with the ovary pains sound so promising that your gonna ovulate this cycle, so excited to see how this month pans out for you. Think my temp is looking like I ovulated, bit of a slow rise, so it looks like i'm in the tww again!

 

[IsaacRalph]

Hello!

i'd like to join if thats ok?

Welcome hun, tell us a bit more about yourself! Where are you on your cycle? see you are a fan of smep, i'm not too keen as it makes ttc a bit too scheduled but glad you like it & it worked for you

 

[MamaMac123]

Thanks Issac!

Today my cm is very watery and lots of it but not the ew like last night so far today. But my cervix is still high which is good and today I felt some mild twingy/crampy pains more localized. First on the left then an hour or so later on the right. Probably just guilty of ov symptom spotting but I noted it

Still negative OPK but I've heard and read a lot that pcos can interfere with the OPK so not sure how reliable it'll be for me. Hope I get a positive one eventually though.

 

[MamaMac123]

Welcome Baby!!!

 

[Babybplz]

Thanks guys!
I had + OPK yesterday 10am, 10pm and 10am today. By 5pm today it was v faint again. Cd 16 I think today, bd 14&15. Fingers crossed! Although I doubt we'd be lucky enough to catch first month!
Yes SMEP is v scheduled, but as we both worked long hours in stressful jobs, ttc DS wouldn't have happened without that push!! And as it worked first time last time, and our free time is now even more limited!!! We thought we'd try it again.

 

[IsaacRalph]

Wow girls its like a ghost town in here, where is everybody? I became an auntie again today, Isobel lily born via c section 8lb 7oz and she has thick dark hair & the biggest eyes, so darn cute. Come on guys I miss you, what's happening?
