TTC peanut where are you!?

[HopePeaceJoy]

Meg, do you mean your 10dpo not CD 10? Glad you are staying hopeful and calm.

I'm back from DC. On CD 31, still no AF. But since it showed up on CD 31 last month, I'm not holding my breath. No major signs of AF or pregnancy. My one breast did really hurt all Saturday night, this sharp, throbbing pain. But, trying not to read into it!

Happy Memorial Day!

 

[MegNE922]

Yeah sorry. I'm 11dpo today
Nothing crazy. To report. I just can't wait for this week to be over!

 

[MegNE922]

Happy Memorial Day to you too!!!!

 

[PeanutWhereRU]

Omg meg am I seeing your chart right?????? Cyber sibling eeeeekkkk

 

[HopePeaceJoy]

Meg, did you get a positive? I hope so, yay!!

CD 32, no AF yet....it's killing me not to test, was going to wait until Friday, but not sure if I can!

 

[MegNE922]

Lol! I'm not 100% sure but I think so!!
I test last night and thought I saw something so I used the invert app and the was a line!
I'm 80% convinced I'm nuts. So I deleted the pic & tossed the test and I'm waiting until it Sunday to test with a digital.

 

[HopePeaceJoy]

That's so exciting!! What brand did you use? One month my husband went crazy and bought me three different brands! I wish they all would just say yes or no and not all of the annoying lines! When you test next, maybe do it first thing in the morning? The lines might be clearer. Crossing my fingers for you!

 

[MegNE922]

I just used an IC. I would have used FMU but told myself I wasn't going to do it but once I got home from work I couldn't fight the urge and I just had to pee on something lol. Sunday morning I will be testing before vacation. With a digital. No questions! Lol.

 

[PeanutWhereRU]

Fx for you babe. Yaaayyy

 

[HopePeaceJoy]

Meg, did you test again? Or still waiting for Sunday?? I'm on CD 34 and wanted to wait until tomorrow to test. But, I was just at my friend's house and she's pregnant with her second and she gave me an extra hpt. I already have so many, so I was like what the heck I'll try tonight. I also get a lot of anxiety when I test in the morning, like I don't sleep well. So, I just tested and within like 15 seconds, even though, it says to wait three mins...I got my BFP!! I called my husband in because I was in such shock! Will be testing again tomorrow morning, just to confirm. I can't believe it and am just praying it stays positive and everything is healthy.

I hope when you retest again you get another BFP, Meg! Then we can all be bump buddies! Peanut, how are you feeling? How far along are you?

 

[MegNE922]

Aaahhh HPJ!!! Im sooooo flipping happy for you!!! That's so fantastic!! Xoxoxoxo H&H9 to you love!

 

[HopePeaceJoy]

Thank you, Meg!! After seeing so many negatives, it's hard to believe! How are you doing??

 

[maggz]

Hey guys - I feel like I know you already cause I've been stalking this thread for the last hour, haha...

Super big congrats to Peanut and HopePeaceJoy! Hope yours is on the way as well Meg

I'm 25 and we've been NTNP since December and I've felt so discouraged when all my friends' and family's stories are about how they just planned it and it happened right away... I was on the nuva ring and apparently some have had weird cycles after that but I started tracking my cycles in January and they've been very regular.
I had a 5w3d miscarriage on May 11th so I'm not sure how it affects my cycle, but I had a pretty messy af after the miscarriage which lasted about 3 days and then normal bleeding after that for another 4 days.
Do you guys know if it's even possible to conceive right after a mc? I don't wanna get my hopes up but I'm just tired of waiting!

Also I have a hard time admitting to myself how much I want this, so I guess by saying we're NTNP it doesn't sound like I'm putting as much pressure on myself. My dh is very nonchalant about all of this (although he was a great support through the mc) and doesn't want me to go crazy with temping or OPKs and all that jazz.
I just kinda feel like a failure that it hasn't happened yet when everyone around me is having babies. I know it's not my fault and it's not a logical feeling... but it's there.

:Rant over:

You all seem like such a great group of girls - I hope it's okay that I crash the party!

 

[MegNE922]

Maggz welcome hun! I'm soo sorry for you loss love.
I've heard you're actually very fertile after a MC. I really do suggest using OPK. Go online and get the internet cheap'o ones. Maybe only use them on CD 8-16 just to see if you can pin point it? If it's not there then move a date or so. Or you could temp. Something less obv in your schedule might help you feel less pressure. 💕 I'm excited to have more people join us! Clearly this is the thread of positives! 2 BFP's 3 more to go!

I'm doing good. I'm 14dpo today and I'm doing good holding out. Had some crazy pregnancy dreams last night. Like I POAS and it was spinning like a slot machine at a Casino.....WTH?! Lol.

I just want to vent for a sec. I know there's a good chance I'll have a bfn but I know how devastated I'll be....I'm so nervous it's going to hinder how we go on w/ this whole process. I put pressure on myself bc I just think this Clomid is the miracle pill I've been waiting for. I don't feel stressed and I've been keeping busy trying not to think about it too much. I haven't even told hub about the squinter...I'm don't want to subject him to the heartbreak. Oye vey hey I'm Debbie...Debbie Downer! Lol.

Anywho! PEANUT how did you tell the family if you have already! When's your scan again? I want to see the peanut! HPJ how are you feeling ?

 

[HopePeaceJoy]

Hi Maggz! Welcome to the group! I'm glad you have joined us. This has been such a helpful thread for me. I'm so sorry to hear about your miscarriage, that's so tough. But, know it's common. I'm really worried about that now, but am trusting God that everything will be okay and healthy with the pregnancy.

From what I've heard it really depends on each woman if they can get pregnant right away after a miscarriage. I've heard sometimes it may take a cycle or two for everything to get back on track. However, my friend had one and then the next month she was pregnant. So, I hope that's the case for you! Did you see your gyn after the mc?

How long have you been NTNP? I know it can take women a while to be regular again after going off BC. I think that was probably the case for me. I was on the pill and feel like my body hated me after stopping!

 

[HopePeaceJoy]

Meg, sorry you are feeling down. It's totally understandable to be feeling that way, to protect yourself from disappointment. Hopefully, it will be a totally great outcome when you test next.

I feel like we can never completely let our guard down, that's the way I'm feeling now. Did the digital this morning because that's extra test my friend gave me and it came back positive! I know I probably should have waited longer, but I kind of want to schedule my first appointment and blood test as soon as possible. My friend had a ectopic pregnancy and now I'm completely paranoid! I know it's rare, but better to get things checked up soon as possible.

Crossing my fingers for you, Meg!! I don't know how you haven't given into testing again! Hope AF stays far, far away!

 

[PeanutWhereRU]

Wow ladies firstly welcome maggie. I have also heard you are most fertile after a mc so don't give up hope, a lot of ladies get another bfp straight after.

Peanut is fine, we bought a home doppler to hear the heartbeat and its crazy emotional feeling. I think I am at 10wks hope but have a scan on the 4th june to determine the exact time as my cycle was like 70+ days when I conceived.

We have a great group on called the tww to the bfp... there is only a few of us and we are all at different stages of our pregnancies come join us.. congratulations on your miracle, this is where the journey begins. I've had a rough go with extreme ms been hospitalised twice already fx it gets better soon.

meg just test already I can't wait another 2 days lol.. test take a pic and post it on here. Without looking haha x

 

[MegNE922]

Lol!! I can't I couldn't help but peek. Lol.
I will post Sunday morning once I find out

Thanks Meg! I got so excited last night thinking how awesome it would be if I'm actually pregnant, but FF (which I just tried for the first time) shows my ovulation happened on Tuesday, which would be excellent. I have an app that I use to track my af and that one says I'll be ovulating this weekend - and my husband's away so I really hope FF is right cause we bd'd before he left, of course

If af comes along as scheduled I'll try either temping or OPKs, which one do you guys like better?

Stay positive! It's hard especially when we google errrrrything and read all these forums, haha. Crossing my fingers for you!

Thanks HPJ, yeah it's really common especially so early, sometimes I think we shouldn't even really know about it this early cause it causes so much heartbreak if something goes wrong. All in all I was relieved that since it had to happen that it happened early on and not later.

Haven't seen my ob yet, we just moved and I'm trying to get a referral from my new doctor and it's taking forever for some reason. I'm gonna call him today and see what's happening with that.

I got off the nuva ring mid December 2013, so it's been six months now. My cycles got regular pretty quickly.

How are you feeling though?? Symptoms or no?
