Reply by betsyf777 » May. 14, 2012 8:05am snowwhite: PLEASE stay on your meds until you can meet with your doctor. I am sure there is something they can find to help mitigate any suicidal thoughts/tendencies that is safer for baby, but anytime you change anti-depressants it is a delicate matter. Besides, you can't get pregnant if you aren't here! My update: I'm out this month. I finally broke down and bought some tests while I was grocery shopping Friday night and never even got a chance to use them since AF reared her ugly head yesterday morning. Oh well! There's always next month (and I'm REALLY keeping my fingers crossed since DH goes to second shift for 4 months after that and we barely even see each other, much less get to BD much when he's on seconds...) Good luck to all of you still in the running for a May BFP - sticky babydust/beans to all! Report	betsyf777 Posts: 16

Reply by _snowwhite_ » May. 14, 2012 10:58am Thanks for the advice ladies. I see my doc at the end of the month so I'll ask to be changed to something safer for baby. I went to get my cast off today and they said two more weeks. Sigh. No AF yet ladies. She's due today. I don't think she's coming. Fx'd!!! NAusea and a sore throat today. Good signs right?? Hey pregnant ladies: did you get shortness of breath or labored breathing when you got your bfp or even now? I find my breathing really short lately. Report	_snowwhite_ Posts: 482

Reply by angelbaby1028 » May. 14, 2012 11:12am AF came like 5 days earliy. I guess I must just be off balance this month. I didnt even get A ttw UGH. last month Af was a week late. It is so hard to track this stuff when its off track. Report	angelbaby1028 Posts: 7

Reply by GummyBear » May. 14, 2012 11:19am Hi Ladies, Wow, I've missed a lot. I don't have time to respond to everyone. FX'd for everyone waiting to O, O'ing, or in the TWW! AFM - I'm 12 dpo today and still BFN. I had some red blood when I used the bathroom yesterday morning, but nothing since. I think AF is around the corner. We'll find out Tuesday or Wednesday.

Reply by Popstarh8ter » May. 14, 2012 3:02pm Heya Ladies! Thought I would share an encouraging word with you from my cousin who struggled with infertility until finally conceiving through IVF: Happy Mother's Day. To the mothers without their children: You are strong, stronger than most will ever have to be. You are deserving, deserving of the children that your heart longs to care for and love, and deserving of the happiness that your child will bring you. You are a mother. You spend every day thinking about your children and you already put their best interests first. You would (and often do) give them everything. You are willing to go to the greatest lengths for them before they are even in your lives. Celebrate yourself, your growth, your spirit, your marriage, your love, your compassion, your dedication, and your strength. Happy Mother's Day. To the fathers without their children: Celebrate your wives today. They are sacrificing so much; often their bodies, always their hearts and souls. Treat them as the amazing mothers that they are and will continue to be once your family is complete. See the woman you fell in love with. Reflect on the qualities you saw when you began trying to start your family, the qualities that assured you that she would be the best mother possible. See her heart and the heavy pain that surrounds it but that she often hides to others. Forgive her. Show her love. Show her your support but more importantly show her your heart. To your marriage: Do not dwell today on what you do not have, but focus on the love that you share for each other, the bond that has been formed through your heartache and the strength that you can continue to give each other as you move forward. To the friends and family of those struggling with infertility: For just today, do not give advice. Do not fix, do not try to heal, and do not try to minimize. Be a shoulder to cry on, a hand to hold, and an ear to listen. Be encouraging, supportive, and show them how much you care. Treat them as the parents they are, recognizing that they just do not have their family yet. Do not shy away from wishing them a Happy Mother's Day. Mother's Day is just a day, it does not define you as a person and it does not determine your successes or your failures. "Happy" is the part to focus on, today and every day. http://justmacara.wordpress.com/2012/05/13/to-all-those-with-infertility/ Lots of to all of you wonderful ladies who are still trying, and Happy Mothers Day.

Reply by Sydnee's Momma » May. 14, 2012 10:31pm Hello ladies! Okay I know I've missed a lot so I'm not going to get everything in here. Joy: Its funny you said that because my Dad actually burnt the meat! ! But everything else was lovely! My dh woke me up with raspberry pancakes that he and my dd made. She was soo proud of herself, wearing her cute lil' apron. her! Kristine: Welcome back; I've been wondering about how you're doing. I'm sorry that things haven't gone the way that I'm sure you'd have liked them too. But I hope through all this you DO become a mom and that maybe a lil' miracle will happen in the heart of that stubborn dh of yours!!! Clare: Welcome! Your symptoms sound good! Jil: I'm glad you're choosing to stay on meds, there are safe ones out there for baby so I'm sure your doctor will have a good plan when the time comes. And hopefully thats sooner than later!!! Angel: Sorry about the stupid Gummy: that AF stays away! Maybe it was blood from IB?! Kat: thanks for the kinds words you shared with us all! AFM: 7 dpo. I am planning to test at 9 or 10 dpo and everyday following! So close and I can't wait! Had most cramping at 5 & 6 days and a little today. Been feeling gassy and bloated but also I have been eating so crappy with all the bbq's I've been to lately. So it could be that as well. But lets just pretend its just a really good sign instead! -Nicole Report	Sydnee's Momma Posts: 179
