Hi ladies,
Just checking in to see how you are all doing and sending lots of baby dust.
Mrs, I only dtd twice for this bfp so you never know.
Ready, I would definitely look into taking the meds, can't hurt if they worked for your friend.
Wishing, good luck. Hope your dream comes true.
Smommy, lol, your dh will get used to it. Hope you got lots of lovely things xx

 

[ReadynWaiting]

Ab-you only have 11 weeks left!! That is crazy. I hope you are doing well?

 

[ab75]

I know. It is flying in. I'm doing good thanks. Got a growth scan on thurs to find out if I can have a home birth or not xx

 

[MolGold]

Hey Hi ladies!
How have you been?

You know, even I BD'ed only twice for this BFP Funny how that happens, not when you are BDing your ass off!

 

[Wishing_]

I only bd'ed once. I thought it did anything. Af should come in 3 days. I been cramping like crazy & my back hurts a lot.

Ab-i soo hope u can have the home birth. I did with dd and it was amazing...having a shower in MY bathroom with MY stuff and no nurse watching. Laying on my couch nursing for the 1st time, eating my food...it really is such a better feel than the hospital(ds was born). Are you measuring ahead or why are you going for a scan?
MG-you are almost in to ur 2nd tri already...time seems to be zipping along here

Hey ladies! Here's something to chew on (literally). My dr just called to tell me my vitamin D levels are below normal (normal range is 75-250 and mine is 74) and i need to take a supplement of min 1 tablet (1000mg or mcg not sure which but standard tablet size) a day. So of course i googled it and there are all kids of studies done on how this can affect fertility. So for any of u not taking vitamin d i would recommend it. She suggested that i take 2 and she has some patients taking 4 to 5. She said it will do no harm. I'm picking them up tomorrow!

 

[Smommy013]

Ready- hope that works!!

Afm- baby girl has been moving since about 16 weeks. And I am now 26! She is a mover. Likes to kick a lot!

 

[Mommy_DK]

All of you are so sweet ! So glad I have such nice comforting women to lean on and get advice from. I just realized I am probably the youngest here! My mom isn't in my life so much so it feels really good to have you all

Ready- I'm so sorry to read that your gyns aren't performing the way that you need them to, I would def find another gyn and specialist ASAP. There are 'older women' out there who've had kids later in the game with meds and assistance..... It isn't impossible. Either way they need to test you. If not, I'd say yes take the meds after extensive research of course.

Bab- is the metmorphin a form of clomid? If so do you mind me asking how long you've been on?

Mrs- You're wall looks great! I love it, I can't wait to get some of the exterior work done to our house! It's so fun putting together big projects like that and watching it all come together

And to everyone who agreed with me about gender preference THANK YOU! Lol there is nothing wrong with wanting to balance your family and for some reason DH and I feel like more boys than girls gives a comfortable balance. BUT I will OF COURSE love who ever will be growing inside of me

Oh and ready- I double dose my v d for no apparent reason.... Think I satrted taking them because my skin looked dull lol but my dr said it was fine ! Good luck...... My skin does look brighter so v d is a plus all the way around

 

[Mommy_DK]

I had my appointment today for my hsg........ Went perfect. Tubes are clear ,Plenty of follies / eggs , ovaries look great, vitamin levels are good, hormones are perfect and DH is perfect. They are suspecting anovulation due to missing 1-2 periods every few months or so. My follow up is next week so I'm hoping they prescribe the clomid then and we will be trying in March for our baby boy



I am so in love with the name Killian and it goes well with my DS's name Jason. Just a little wishful thinking..............


Anyone else have names picked out for future bundles?

 

[Mrs. Burch]

Ready-do you already take a prenatal vitamin? I'm wondering if I should add it since it is already in my prenatals? Glad they gave you something though!!!

 

[BABTTC123]

Sorry for not replying for a while. I have been bogged down by work all week #_# to top it all off I came down with a cold! Aw maaan... lol

Too lazy to catch up past one page, sorry xD

Mommy- Metformin is technically a diabetic mediction though it can be used to manage hormones. Since PCOS causes hormonal imbalances the metformin can help to regulate things in the process it can help me to ovulate again but isn't guaranteed to do so...

I am going to catch up on everyone elses post tomorrow and share current events here I am pretty beat from today.

 

[Wishing_]

Ready - i might strt taking my prenatal if that's the case..
smommy - it most be an amazing feeling, feeling her move a lot.

I had a bizzare thing happen. Dh & i dtd not to long ago. Af should arrive in 2 days, but we noticed my discharge was different. Not to sound nasty but it looked lk wip cream to me. To him it was foamy. It was pure white. There's no itching or odor. I burned a few seconds when i went to the loo the first time. I threw up a few times. I debating if i should test.

 

[ab75]

Test!!

Ready that's what I am hoping for. I've to go for a growth scan as dd1 was 6lb 13.5oz at 34+5 & dd2 9lb 6oz at 38+5. I think it'll be fine tho. Had natural births with them xx

 

[BABTTC123]

Mrs- your driveway looms great!! I am trying to figure out what I can do here.. not much since it is a rental :S

Ready- when do you plan on testing??

Ab + Smommy + mg- Glad to hear all your babies are doing great and growing fast!! I can't wait to see some pictures when they arrive :3

Wishing- test! It is the only way to know if it is pg or something else!

Mommy- I forgot to mention that I have been on metformin for a long long time... lol I started at 1000 mg of the regular release when I was 17 years old, I've never been able to take bcp to manage hormones, and was on the metformin for almost 2 years. Stopped for a while due to stomach upset and then started again. I was off and on for a whIle until I was prescribed the ER in April this year. I did 500 mg er for about 5/6 months and am up to 1000 mg again.

Okay afm...
been sick as a dog, busy with work and trying to find a home to buy!
seen one house that would have been perfect but it is in a trailer park so I would only own the house, not the land.

I think i ovulated on the 12th so I would have missed. Only bd two days before. Sooo just waiting to see if I was wrong or if af will show.

 

[BABTTC123]

I didnt mean 12th lol I meant 20th which would be cd 12 lol

 

[Wishing_]

I didn't have to test. Af showed up early.

 

[ReadynWaiting]

Sorry Wishing!
So I woke up this am and went to the bathroom (didn't test) and there was a tiny streak of pink blood. I popped in a tampon cuz I knew af was here. When I pulled out the tampon 3 hrs later there was some brownish tinge on the tip but not my normal 1st day of af blood (af due tomorrow). So I decided to test just for shits and giggles. Test one had a shadow so i dipped again and test 2 has something. I have drank 1.5 L of water plus 500 ml of smoothie so urine was diluted even though its been a few hrs. I don't know what to think and frankly if this is hcg its picking up im not too confident that it will be a viable pregnancy as im 13dpo. That would make for a late implantation. Here are some pics anyways:

 

[Mrs. Burch]

Hope you gals had a great weekend!!!

Sorry Wishing!

Bab-Yay for house hunting, I have never bought a house. DH bought our house before we got together and we will more than likely live there for the rest of our lives. So boo I'll never experience buying a home, I am sure it is fun.

Ab-keep us posted, hope the scan is good.

Ready-where are you? Have you tested?

AFM-we did more work on the circle drive this weekend, the rock came and we finished the table and moved it down, I'll posted pics later. So I have a shit ton going on. First off I am taking the awesome progesterone that I love so dearly....gag I hate this shit!!!! (Sorry for curse words I am having a rough time.) I cried 4 times Saturday, one because of a sad story with a dog, I have a dog but I am not one that cries over animals, sorry if I offend anyone that is an animal lover. I like them I am just not going to cry over them, oh wait unless I am on the devil meds that is. So anyways loving this tww and progesterone, they are awesome. I have two vertebrates out in my neck so I can hardly move it, it feels great too. I went to the chiropractor on Thursday and go back today, so hopefully they can fix it. Oh and the best news yet.....I am losing my hair. I have TWO bald, smooth no hair-bald spots on my head. So I will go to my reg dr tomorrow to see what the hell is going on with that. So anywho just chillin at my house. lol I think we are going to stop trying. Dh wants me to do two months on the fermara and then stop after that until March and start again in March. Ugh I am just over all this drama bs ttc crap!! But other than that life is awesome. So the big bonfire is this weekend which I am excited about-no sarcasm there, I really am excited. I will test on Friday and Saturday, which I am sure will be bfn and then I am going to drink it up!! lol So I think after the first of the year I am going to get off of here for a bit, I just have to for my sanity, my stress is out of the roof. I love you gals so much and am so thankful to have you guys to vent to that I know get it and don't judge, I hope aren't judging anyways. I have to learn to stop putting on the act of everything is fine when inside I just want to break down but that is just who I am. Maybe one day i will learn but until then hoping my hair stops falling out.

 

[Mrs. Burch]

Ready-I see a shadow of something.......I hope this is it!!!!!!!!!!!
