We'll Be Over The Moon, When We Get Our BFPs In June! Newbies welcome :)

[asmcsm]

AFM, Kevin's specialist appointment is tomorrow at 11.20 and they're going over all of his test results and scan. Let's hope we learn something and aren't just told the same shit.

Good luck Cassidy! I really hope you and Kevin get some solid answers this time around! That way you can start treating him and hopefully relieve some of the stress. I'm trying to talk Chad into going to the Dr because the other day I found this little lump probably the size of a small marble right below his occipital bone But he hates the hospital. It could just be another cyst but you never know. I'd rather he got it figured out sooner than later.

looks like af is on her way.. i started spotting and my temp dropped again..this is just so hard

Sorry hun It sucks. We all go through it. It's very hard not to get discouraged but you just have to remind yourself how worth it everything will be when you do finally get a little baby in your arms

Okay well I wish SaturdayTestDay could just hurrrayyy bc I'm dyin over here!! And to make things better, my alarm clock didn't go off this morning. So sitting here half asleep with a bit of an afro.. ugh I neeeed cofffeeee..

Who all's testing soon? Any good signs? I'm tellin ya Amanda, leaking boobs (at least for me I remember it so vividly!!) is a faaabulous sign!!

I've got LOTS of CM and like.. light stabbing in my ovaries? Really not even just one.. it's both? And moodiness/exhausted but who knows, I work all day I don't know if this is just AF signs or more? Does this sound like anyone else's normal AF signs? I need an answer abt CM I'm so confused abt that, too? Aren't you supposed to "dry up" after O? Lol sorry I'm just lookin for things to bank on!!

Happy rainy junky Tuesday from Ohio

Good luck! Hope those are all good signs that you'll get your BFP!

Well bad news. AF showed up with avengence this morning. I'm so sad. I feel like a nut case now bc DH got so excited and now we are back to the drawing board....guess ill be picking up my clomid after all

Awww So sorry Rachel. I hope that you get another BFP with your first round of clomid

I have had really bad cramps for the past day and a half, and a really bad lower back ache that wont go away! My boobs are still ridiculously huge and sore. I'm feeling optimistic, but preparing myself for AF too. OH is getting antsy, and keeps asking me to go get a blood test-- hoping to hold out for a few more days.

I was at the drug store last night to pick up some items, and grabbed a big box of tampons while I was there. I figured that If I'm overly prepared, maybe AF won't show.

I've got my FX for you! We really need a good solid BFP this month! And Suzy better be right!

AFM, temp went down a little today which is different since it was going up before, but today I have EWCM? I am so friggin confused. It would be nice to go back to having a nice predictable cycle like before I knew exactly what day I would O and exactly when AF would show ugh

 

[morganwhite7]

are you using opk's yet Ashlee?

 

[clynn11]

Rachel- Honestly hun with lines like that on so many different tests I am thinking chemical too. I'm so sorry. FX you get a rainbow baby this next cycle

Ash- your temp didn't go down too much! And I actually always get EWCM after O for some reason...

Morgan- same to what I said to Ash, I never 'dry up' I always have EWCM or creamy CM after O up until AF. Idk why, just do lol.

BBW Sorry AF got you hun I understand the disappointment all too well. FX you get your BFP next cycle

I'll let you all know how DF's appointment goes, he's getting ready to leave right now it's in a town 30 min. away.

 

[Disneybaby26]

Oh, Rachel, I am heartbroken for you!! I'm so sorry!! Fx'd clomid does the trick

Sonia- are you having a BD-a-thon?! I already told DH to prepare himself!! Haha

 

[asmcsm]

are you using opk's yet Ashlee?

Yea, I've been using OPKs for the last couple months as my primary fertility tracking method and just started temping but they haven't really been much help this cycle. In my cycles before m/c I would get solid positives on days 15 and 16 and now I've had 2 days this cycle where they've been darker but not positive on day 15 and 35 so really no idea what is going on at all. I'm now on cycle day 37 and hating it I just want to know if I've O'd am going to O or if AF will just show up already. It's really really frustrating. I'd almost just rather AF showed so I at least know where I am

I usually only get EWCM when I'm O'ing then always get creamy CM after O until AF shows then dry But this is definitely EWCM But then again my body is completely whacked out right now so who the hell knows

 

[goldstns]

Rachel- So SORRY! you didn't deserve that. Crossing my fingers clomid does the trick.

Cassidy- thinking about you and DH. hope they have answers. I wish they would call you with answers instead of making you wait til and apt.

Morgan- I get both ovs hurting at once just before AF, but im talking about 1-3 days before... not 6-7 like you are.

Robert- I hope you have some good news soon!!!

Julie- welcome back. No day like today to get back on track! However, I can't talk.... pregnancy has made me put on the lbs already. I am pretty sure I have a girl in here because my hips are growing like mad... causing major hip/butt pain!

AFM, sorry I have been a little MIA, I read EVERY day however Iv been a bit sick. Light and computers give me a bad headache. If i am not eating like every hour I get nauseous. My hips/butt are having major "growing" pains. I went to the doc yesterday for a OBGYN check up and she said everything I am feeling is completely normal, so I am not worried in anyway. My next scan is July 1st (11+2). Doc said after that scan I am safe to spread the word!!! Counting down...20 days!

 

[RobertRedford]

I think AF is on her way. I am having the worst cramps and lower back pain, feels JUST like AF cramps. They normally start after AF arrives though. Who knows.

I keep running to the bathroom to check for AF, but nothing. So confused!

 

[morganwhite7]

Test Amanda test !!! Haha I am so excited for Saturday I can't see straight, and that's still 10DPO ugh prolly too soon but oh well comeonnnn weekend ! Anybody know any HPT (that you can get from the store) that detects lower than 25 hCG? Perhaps 10? That'd be awesome

You can still get a super faint at 10dpo! IC's are also known to pick up low levels! I think FRER's pick up 12.5? You might be able to order something for overnight delivery (like amazon prime shipping) that picks up less then 25...

I am going to have blood done in the am, if AF doesn't come before that. Holding out on testing...ITS HARD!

And, the cramping is gone. I am so very confused! Could that be really odd late Implantation pain? Maybe I O'd late and I am only at 10 or 11dpo? (over thinking this way too much!)

 

[BubsMom17]

Well Nikki, sounds like things are really taking off for you now! Have you ever felt more happy to feel nauseated???

PS: I hope you don't have the attack of the headache monster like me... it really sucks...

 

[RobertRedford]

Sorry I missed it Nikki, Is the pregnancy feeling a bit more "real" now that youre having more symptoms? Sorry that you're not feeling well, regardless.

 

[NDTaber9211]

looks like af is on her way.. i started spotting and my temp dropped again..this is just so hard

I am so sorry hun I know how you feel. I wish there was something we could do to make it not be so hard every month.

Well bad news. AF showed up with avengence this morning. I'm so sad. I feel like a nut case now bc DH got so excited and now we are back to the drawing board....guess ill be picking up my clomid after all

Sorry it was a chemical At least it is a start and you know it is possible for you!

I think AF is on her way. I am having the worst cramps and lower back pain, feels JUST like AF cramps. They normally start after AF arrives though. Who knows.

I keep running to the bathroom to check for AF, but nothing. So confused!

Keep us posted! FX the witch stays away!

AFM- AF is on her way out. I am debating on if I want to start temping tomorrow or not. I want to keep trying but I know we SHOULD go NTNP for a month or two. My prediction claims it's next cycle I would be getting pregnant yet, following my current pattern, that was is looking to be an anovulatory one so who knows.

 

[morganwhite7]

I think tomorrow and Thursday may possibly be the longest days of my life.. ahhh thinking about just making myself "forget" til then. But everytime I imagine those two pink lines it just feels sooo good?!!! Hahahaa. Ugh.. I hope my heart doesn't get broken but it prollllllyyyy will !!

I get what you mean exactly! I keep having to stop myself from thinking about a bfp! I dont want to be dissapointed The week always goes by quickly after wednesday, so hopefully this week speeds up quickly!!

 

[pdxmom]

Yeah I am quite confident it was a chemical...there was no denying those lines. And on so many different tests. I'm going to start the clomid on cd 5 and ask for an order to have my progesterone checked. I'm crushed. So is DH. Boo.

Rachel im so sorry hun...i was so sure this was it for u...im sure clomid will work its magic soon

I have had really bad cramps for the past day and a half, and a really bad lower back ache that wont go away! My boobs are still ridiculously huge and sore. I'm feeling optimistic, but preparing myself for AF too. OH is getting antsy, and keeps asking me to go get a blood test-- hoping to hold out for a few more days.

Hope the witch stays away cos all your signs look soo promising COMMMOONNN BFP!!!!!

Sonia- are you having a BD-a-thon?! I already told DH to prepare himself!! Haha

Hahaha...just started day before and goin to try doing it every alternate day...ive told dh no excuses and he knows i mean business hahahah...however im alil confused with my cycle right now...as i spotted for 3 days before very lite af for the next 2...my doc still counted the spotting days as af as it was induced by provera so thinking tht way im on cd 11 but otherwise im on cd8......this confusion also changes my clomid pattern cos counting spotting i took clomid from cd5-cd9 and not counting spotting i took it from cd2-cd6...so its goin to b a confusing mth...already makes me alil discouraged but now im kinda pretty sure my BFP is not too far away

AFM, sorry I have been a little MIA, I read EVERY day however Iv been a bit sick. Light and computers give me a bad headache. If i am not eating like every hour I get nauseous. My hips/butt are having major "growing" pains. I went to the doc yesterday for a OBGYN check up and she said everything I am feeling is completely normal, so I am not worried in anyway.

Yaayy Nikki..im so hapy your sick sorry hun...but as long as your lo is doin well its all gud...

 

[BubsMom17]

Well my OB/GYN just called. Baby looks GREAT, and all is good there.

Me, however... I have a marginal placenta previa. Meaning a portion of my placenta is either VERY close to my cervix or is actually covering my cervix. Same thing happened with Danny. This mean pelvin rest for the next 8 1/2 weeks, until we can confirm placenta has moved away from the cervix as my uterus grows. It took 10 weeks last time...
So no sex, no arousal, no climax, no exercise other than light walking or swimming until the next ultra-sound at 28ish weeks. I am sure it will correct itself. It is just frustrating....

 

[jury3]

Welcome back Julie! We missed you!

Thanks Emily! How are you feeling? Do you guys have a name picked out yet?

Welcome back Julie! I am glad you had fun on your trip. I've been sliding on eating well and exercising myself. Now with AF here it's been even worse. I salt and chocolate are my Achilles heel during AF.

Once aunto flo packs her backs and gets the *bleep* outta here, I am getting right back on it. I really need to get my body working better so I don't have anymore of these blasted anovulatory cycles. They are just the worst!

Good luck with your weigh in.

AF is always hard for me too. Chocolate/sweets are my weakness for sure. I actually lost 3 lbs at the nutritionist! I was very surprised. I didn't eat or drink all day though, lol. My body fat and my bmi have both gone down as well. I really have to get back on a strict track though...I hope you don't have an anovulatory cycle!

I just made banana bread with chocolate chips. I promised myself I wouldn't eat it. Ya right, 2 pieces later!

LOL! That sounds just like me. I had to make brownies for school a few weeks ago and told myself I wouldn't have any...yeah, definitely ate several lol Brownies are my ultimate weakness! Banana bread sounds so good right now...mmmmm lol P.S. I don't know how you are holding out...I would be testing for sure!

AFM, Kevin's specialist appointment is tomorrow at 11.20 and they're going over all of his test results and scan. Let's hope we learn something and aren't just told the same shit.

I hope you hear something too! I'm frustrated for you...

looks like af is on her way.. i started spotting and my temp dropped again..this is just so hard

I'm sorry It is very disappointing...

Julie- welcome back, we missed you!! Are you doin insems this cycle??

We are! We figured we might as well get back to trying lol We are going to do one tomorrow night hopefully. Then maybe one on either Thurs or Fri.

Well bad news. AF showed up with avengence this morning. I'm so sad. I feel like a nut case now bc DH got so excited and now we are back to the drawing board....guess ill be picking up my clomid after all

Rachel-I'm so sorry I would take it as a good sign though, you can get preggo and you've got to be close! I bet the clomid will get you a bfp quickly!

Julie- welcome back. No day like today to get back on track! However, I can't talk.... pregnancy has made me put on the lbs already. I am pretty sure I have a girl in here because my hips are growing like mad... causing major hip/butt pain!

AFM, sorry I have been a little MIA, I read EVERY day however Iv been a bit sick. Light and computers give me a bad headache. If i am not eating like every hour I get nauseous.

My next scan is July 1st (11+2). Doc said after that scan I am safe to spread the word!!! Counting down...20 days!

I can't believe you are so close to the 2nd trimester already! It goes by so quickly! Sorry you're sick...kind of lol

Sonia-Sorry your cycle is out of whack...hopefully it'll work out in your favor either way!

 

[RobertRedford]

Jury, goodluck with the insem this month! Im crossing my fingers for you! I have a good feeling for you this month!

I'm holding out from testing out of fear of a negative! I dont want to get my hopes crushed..again! I have to get blood drawn for other things tomorrow (dr is checking my thyroid and prolactin because of the random lactation) and my doctor just emailed to say that he also ordered a beta hcg as well. I guess Ill be getting answers tomorrow regardless! Yesterday's test was soooo negative.

Emily, no sex? oh no! But, in all seriousness, I hope it gets better really soon and that baby continues to be healthy as can be!

 

[BubsMom17]

Julie - Good job on the results!!! I hope hope hope everything goes will with insems this month.

Yes, yesterday we decided on a name. Gabriel James. As DH said, no "take-back!" LOL... I had been on him all weekend about deciding so when we FINALLY agreed, we decided it is set in stone. BUT we are keeping it a secret from everyone IRL.
