BYOB: Hoping for some summer bfps!

View Full Post

Hi ladies!!

Lets start things off as usual.... with an introduction/update!

My name is Joy
DH and I are both 29
we've been together just over 10yrs
Got married and bought a house together in 2009
From Canada
I'm currently a housewife, but hope to soon be a stay at home mom

I got pg back in the summer of 2010 then m/c'd at 8 weeks
We ttc for 8 cycles after the m/c, (10 months)
We have a nursery room all set up waiting for baby

I got a BFP on June 30th 2011
Had a missed m/c on Aug 18th 2011
Since then I have been rushed to the hospital 3 times for excessive bleeding (once via ambulance cause I passed out)
I have had 2 emergency D&C's, 2 Folley Ballooons, 3 blood transfusions of 2 bags each, & a Hysteroscopey. (Not to be confused with a "HysterECTAMY")

I Finally got back to TTC in Jan/Feb 2012 and on March 21st I got my BFP!
I am currently 14 weeks 3 days pregnant!
My first ob/gyn apt was Wed April 4th 2012
He put me on progestrone and asked to see me in 2 weeks
My next apts were April 19th 2012 & May 3rd
At our May 3rd apt (at 9 weeks5 days) we heard the best sound ever - our little one's heartbeat!!
We went for our 1st non-diagnostic u/s on May 15th and saw our little ones heartbeat & he or she was VERY active!
Had another dr apt on May 22nd and heard the heartbeat again!
Next apt is June 21st... my diagnostic u/s is July 13th
We will be going for a non-diagnostic u/s around the end of June/Beginning of July so dh can see our little peanut before he leaves on his trip.
My due date is Dec 1st 2012!

This is truly an amazing group of ladies & I really hope our string of luck (& bfps) continues!! ladies!

xx
Joy

Hi!

So I haven't heard from the doc yet, but I have this wonderful online system with my healthcare that I was able to look up the results from the blood test yesterday. At 13dpo I was at 115 hcg. I didn't see a progestrone number and I wonder if they even tested for that. I was hoping they would since low progestrone can lead to a m/c. I will ask about it when they call. Also, I haven't had any more spotting since Sunday around noon. I really hope 4th time is a charm.

Sabrina - Hopefully those cramps are the beginning of a BFP and not AF. Either way I bet you are ready for an answer.

Elle - How long has it been since your DH had the test? It seems like over two weeks now. I would call the office and ask them to give you the results over the phone.

Snow - I swore I wasn't pregnant this cycle because I had no symptoms. Maybe no symptoms is a symptom of pregnancy. Good Luck with the potential jobs!

Kruchie - I still have hope for you. If this cycle doesn't work I bet the IUI will! Best of luck to you!

Joy - Glad you had a good time camping. Sorry it was a wet one. I hate when it rains while camping. Everything gets so dirty. I'll see you over at CMP soon!

just1more - I am sending crampy vibes your way for AF so you can get started again, stupid cycles haha last year I went 67 days without a period.My doc gave me a blood pregnancy test which came back negative. No idea what happened lol

gummybear - it will be 2 weeks on Thursday since DH did the S/A. So fed up right now

Well I've booked my 21 day blood test for Friday morning. No OV pains or fertile CM so I think OV is still a couple of days away...

morning ladies!!

elle, i would be getting on the phone to see what was going on with the results! surely they can tell you over the phone?

gummy, why dont uask for a progesterone test to be done... Can you request blood tests from your GP? Mine did a load of tests before I got to the specialist so it doesnt hurt to ask. you will be paying for it so why not!!

AFM, Blood test was a big fat negative yesterday which is hardly surprising! but i was getting a bit worried because the "bleeding" i had had was very light and brown, but I guess it was just my body in delayed mode because WHAM!!!!! Period pains and red flow today!!

So, DH home today and off to give his deposit tomorrow. then my next blood test is 18th which should be CD10 but now with the increased bleeding it might not be, but that is the beauty of blood tests! and after talking with the clinic, she said she will put us down for an IUI cycle but if DH is home we can change it to timed intercourse, so that is good. She said we can do IUI even if he is home and he just gives a fresh sample and they use the best of the sample, so will discuss with him when he gets home. She is posting out the forms so might depend on costs too.

Just about to book our flights to Bangkok! VVV excited and will go out at lunch time to get a travel guide of bangkok!!! it will be an excellent way to keep my mind off the TWW! by my calculations, i should be able to get the progesterone blood test just before i go and then just get a delayed preg test when i get back unless i have my period, which will be easier to take if we are on holiday!!!

krunchie - sorry it was after all. Enjoy your holiday!
I can't ring myself about the SA because they are classed as his results and he says he is getting a letter so wont ring *bangs head against wall* lol I don't think he knows how much I'm being driven crazy by it haha

Well I have no OPKs left. My surge last cycle was day 19 which is today and - OPK so my ovulation is later this month. boo! I'll be having a longer cycle again now I don't think I'll buy more OPKs, OV will have to be sometime in the next few days or it's not happening right? and my blood tests will tell me if I did Ovulate or not...

Ellie, I would be going crazy, I hope the results come real soon for you.x

Today I have had a lot of nausea, but I am not sure if it is just because of this headache which has started today. CD62 today, tested last night and again a really faint line, but I think it may be an evap, it doesn't seem to be any darker and its so light I am not sure if it has any colour in it or not.

21 days and counting until I can get a blood test!!!!

just1more - oooh a possible + test

Today I am... frustrated.
I got another letter to say my consultants appointment has been pushed back AGAIN! It was originally the 2nd of July then the 31st of July now it's the 14th of August! It'll have been over 3 months since my 1st appointment by the time I go IF they don't push it back again.
We still haven't got the SA results! it will be 2 weeks tomorrow. I'm at the doctors on Friday for my blood test so i'm going to ask if they can contact the clinic maybe.
Final frustration, last cycle I used OPKs from CD16-20 I had OV pains, EWCM and got my surge on CD19. This cycle I have had no EWCM, OV pains and OPKs are negative. I'm CD19 today so it looks like late OV or anovulatory cycle. Which in turn means a longer cycle and even longer to POAS/HSG test

meh this waiting is driving me nuts!!

Hi Ladies!

Elle - Grrrr to ALL of those frustrations!! I can't believe you STILL dont have the sa results!! And of course that your dh wont call about them... MEN they really dont get it do they?? Hope you hear some good news soon!!

just1more - Can you post a photo of these tests you've been doing so we can have a look? Also, what brand test have you been using? Hope you get some answers soon! (Also have you given any thought to lying? lol Tell your doc you got a bfp and get them to take you in for bloodwork cause your worried about a possible m/c?)

Katie - Boo to the negitive blood results AND to stupid AF finally showing up in full force. Mother nature can be so cruel! Hopefully this cycle will be your lucky one! SO exciting about your trip!!

Jess - Still so excited for you sweetie! I would definitely talk to your doc about starting you on progesterone or prometrium (same thing) asap! As my ob/gyn told me, it cant cause any harm to take it, so its definitely worth a try cause low progesterone can lead to m/c. Really hoping the 4th time's the charm!! I have a great feeling! Can't wait for you to join us back on cmp!

Jil - Thats so sweet that you got some $ left to you from your Grandpa. Glad it helped out!

AFM - DH is at work right now and I am just planning on doing some tidying and packing for this weekend. Got some $ stress going on right now, Had to take the pup in to the vet last week for shots etc and it ended up costing us a few hundred dollars (We were expecting closer to $50!) AND we found out he may need some dental work which could cost upwards of $500! Yikes! Seems like everything is happening at once and it all costs a fortune!! Should ease up soon though, thank goodness!

xx Joy

Krunchie - I sorry AF showed. I hope the relaxing trip will give you a BFP.

Just1more - Yeah! If you can post a test maybe we can see it. I hope this is the one for you!

Joy - I hate when that happens. And most people will do anything for their pets. I know I would for my cat.

AFM - Just got the second round of blood test results back and they are at 290! Yay, they are doubling. Doctor said the earliest he can get me in is July 9th, which I will be 8 weeks. I doubt that's the earliest, but I guess that's protocol. I'm pretty happy right now.

Hey everyone!

elle, why are they pushing you out again? Do they give a reason? can you go to another clinic? I am so mad for you right now about that and your SA results!! DH just made his first deposit today and they said we can ring this afternoon to make sure it was good enough to freeze and hopefully they can either say then or give a time when analysis will be done too! no way would i wait 2 weeks!! firstly because they need it ready for my first insemination which will be less than two weeks! I would kick him up the bum and make him call!

just1more, can you not go to another doctor and request the blood test? I cant believe the other one is making you wait so long!

what is with all the forced waiting out there at the moment! Do they not realise that time is ticking on and there is no time to waste!! I bet if it was their uterus they would hurry up!

gummy, great news! sounds like this might be a keeper!!

AFM, yep, first deposit done today! so just waiting for blood test on 18th to see where i am in the cycle. he only wants to do IUI if he is away which is a little frustrating but understandable. We could do IUI with him home so they use a fresh sample but i dont want to make him do anything he doesnt want to. He actually said at my next specialist appointment he wants to ask if we can go straight to IVF and not bother with IUI... Will wait and see what she says.
