Welcome to the 'Two Week Wait'

[EMC00P]

AF should have shown up yesterday. She has been out of whack lately...not showing up on and being light the last 2 cycles. I will be giving her a few more days and then I will for sure be testing this month. FXed~!!!

 

[Spindlette]

Hey all, I'm new on here, joined as I'm going crazy waiting!!
Me & hubby have only started trying this cycle, last period started 13th July, I'm 10 dpo today, got headache & cramps but nausea seems to have gone and not as tired as I was last week, just wondered if anybody else had pinkish CM just a tiny bit today but period not due for 6 more days!!( sorry if tmi) Could this have been imp spotting? Or do you think it's period coming early?

 

[MIZZYD]

I am 9DPO and have some light brown spotting, any one similar or had something similar to this and if yes what was your end result (BFP, AF, MC)?

 

[IceQueen86]

Hi ladies!!! First i want to thank you all for your support and advice i REALLY appreciate it! I've been gone for days, because i had a huge meltdown for 2 days. Let me start with good news first- told my Dh on friday and he was very happy about it Then i started looking for private insurances and discovered that they don't cover women who are already pregnant So i'm screwed now, i can't pay out of pocket for everything. So my only chances are home birth with midwife or go back to europe ( i don't think i can get any healthcare there since i have not lived there for 8 years).

Does any of you living in U.S. know any affordable private insurances who accept already pregnant women? I found one insurance but i don't understand exactly everything. I think they accept pre-existing condition (pregnancy) but not sure, and how much do i have to pay in a month? Could somebody plz explain it to me - https://www.colorado.gov/cs/Satellite/DPA-DHR/DHR/1213025226825 , first and second link there ...

LovingMyGirls - how are you doing? Getting ready for the beach?

 

[LovingMyGirls]

Spindle- It could definitely be implantation. That usually happens from 6 to 10 days. Are you charting your temps?? I do want to say that it is actually quite rare to get implantation but it DOES happen to women.. 6 days early if your cycles are regular sounds like it could be a good sign if its very little spotting.

Mizzy- It could be any of those.. But I don't think M/C Because I have experienced this and its BIG clots and steady bleeding and btw nothing is TMI on here. I would wait few days and test... FX for your BFP

Ice- You can get insurance here in US but all states varies in prices. I am in PA and if you are pregnant you would probably pay around $150$ a month. If you give me a state I can research it for you. So glad you finally told your DH, im so happy for you guys. btw if you have a planned parenthood there , they should be able to help you and steer you in the right direction on where to go for affordable insurance. GL babe

 

[LovingMyGirls]

EMC- If you AF is already late then TEST!.. your results are 99% at this point.. SO GL!!!

 

[LovingMyGirls]

Oh and Ice- yes I am SOO ready for the beach.. Hoping my Af is gone.. wish my cycles weren't so damn long than I could get some it at the beach

 

[IceQueen86]

Hahahahha you are hilarious . Hopefully this stupid AF will be gone by the time you go to the beach. I hate to go to the beach while on period

I do have Planned Parenthood here but i don't even bother with them anymore,when ever i have needed some information, they never know anything

I'm in CO, and in my last post i added this some kaiser HMO insurance i found, but i don't understand these insurances so well, so i wasn't sure if i could get it. You see if you click on the link then there's first and second link, if you click on them they will open up as pdf file, then you click open and you can see that insurance plan.

Here it is - https://www.colorado.gov/cs/Satellite/DPA-DHR/DHR/1213025226825

I chatted with a representative from Kaiser on-line. Apparently, with them, pregnancy is still a pre-existing condition and you'd be declined for their regular insurance. After being declined, you could appeal the decision and if that doesn't work, you could apply for a HIPPA plan.

Kaiser offers a HIPPA Plan and you can call 800-634-4579 and select option 3 for more information on their HIPPA plan.

(You need the denial letter before you can apply for HIPPA, but you would qualify for HIPPA being pregnant already. They couldn't give me the details of HIPPA online, so you'd have to call the number to find out more information.)

Hope this helps! Sorry insurance is such a pain....

 

[EMC00P]

I am going to hold out another day or so. AF has been late before. I'm just trying not to get my hopes up. Soon though...promise.

EMC- If you AF is already late then TEST!.. your results are 99% at this point.. SO GL!!!

I need a break. I'm done with the disappointments. DH and I have a concert at the end of the month out of town and it's going to be a big drunk fest. We made the decision to take this month off for this...one of the reasons, there are many other...i would be testing again right at that time and i don't want to be worried that my drinking could cause damage to our unborn baby should i conceive this cycle so i'm not doing it. NOT going to worry about it. I'm tired. I'm depressed. All i do is cry off and on. I know in a few days i'll be back to my normal self (my new normal anyway) and i'll be sad we're not trying but it's just one month. 28 days. Not that long in the grand scheme of things. I will not do clomid this next cycle, no temping, no peeing on sticks, just DTD when we want this month (not around O days though) and just having fun. Then we'll start fresh with the September cycle. So I'll have that cycle to up my clomid and be monitored and then if that doesn't work, I will know the very next month is our specialist appointment so will have that to look forward to. I did just change my appointment to September instead of October that way the October cycle will be done during the right times and on correct cycle days so I'm excited about this.

I will continue to lurk in here and see how everyone's doing. You all keep me going.

I just saw your photo, you have a beautiful smile!
I am proud of you that you chose to take a break. Relax and enjoy your life.
Your appointment is almost here. You'll be in good hands.The knowledge is power. Once you know what's going on with your body, you'll feel at ease. Because in this century almost everything is possible!

Aww i'm so sorry that you feeling so down . You definitely need a break, try to relax and keep yourself busy with the things you like. Then when you are ready you can start fresh and be more positive about it.

Ladies,
My first fertility appointment is tomorrow, and DH and I have to drive 3.5 hours to another town to make it. So, we're leaving today, having dinner at a great pizzeria, staying overnight, dropping off the dog at doggie day care, going to Trader Joe's tomorrow, having a light lunch then heading to the appointment.
We wanted to surround the appointment with happy things we love, to help us get through the day. It was DH's idea - he's super worried about it.
I wanted to ask for all your good and positive thoughts for us!! This forum has helped me so much, I thought I'd reach out today and ask for some much needed good vibes. Thank you SO much!!!
to all of you!!

I Am sorry you have been so down and out!! Maybe a month to have some good times drinking with your DH is just what you need!! I no that I am excited when I go on vacation this weekend I can have some mixed drinks of the beach. Your apt with specialist will be here in no time!! Stay positive and please don't cry... The less you stress the more things go easy for us!! hang in there!! and also have a GREAT trip

Ice- My Gf said she just didn't tell them she was pregnant until after she was accepted. That's your right which is same as an employer you don't have to tell them during interview. SO if all fails maybe a white lie isn't such a bad idea. If your DH has insurance threw his work than yes ABSOLUTELY he should be able to put you on his insurance. If you planned parenthood is being difficult , try calling one that's not near you and explain your situation and see what they suggest. Im sure this happens a lot with people.. When I finally get pregnant I will go threw this same thing as you are. I hopefully will get accepted for medical assistance and they will only cover me while pregnant, after baby is born I get cut off within weeks but baby will be covered so that's all that matters! I would call that number about hippa that DBZ says and see what they say. GL girl!!!!
