Today I'm 10 dpo. I've been experiencing symptoms since 4 dpo - extreme fatigue, never ending appetite, a constant dull ache in my abdomen and lower, sore bbs, bloated, nausea, dizziness... the works! But as of today, all symptoms, with the exception of cramps and frequent urination, are not present. I am due my af on Thursday (in 4 days) and really hoping she doesn't show! Have taken 3 hpts and so far negative :/ one at 6dpo (i know impatient) one 9 dpo, and one today at 10 dpo. Sound like pre-menstrual symptoms or pregnancy? DH and I really want a number 2!

Maybebaby - im not charting. just calculated the fertile dates and went for it. now im just waiting to see if it works. going abt this the natural way without much aids... as for symptoms, my mom told me she dint have any noticeable symptoms in the TWW so .

Army wife - sorry to hear paid u a visit. hope u get ur in this cycle.

Congratulation Katie! We have a lot more success than in November I think.
Armywife and all bfn's hope you don't feel too bad.. It will happen for all of us! I just know it!

As for fertility food and supplements, I've done my homework, hope someone finds it helpful:
Vitamin b6 is great for endo linen, Omega 3 also.
Pineapple (especially that hard thingy in the middle) is great for CM, but you should stop after O. Primrose oil - the same thing..
Also, you should eat a lot of protein, especially meat before O for egg quality. I eat it every day.
Sea foods and whole grains are full of zinc which is great for little swimmers
I also take 100mg aspirin every day after O, cause it prevents blood clogs, and improve circulation which is important for implantation.
And of course foil acid is very important to take.

And a great thing I must recommend is fertility yoga. I do it every morning before I go to work. It is relaxing, calming and good for blood flow and hormone balance.

btw, 4dpo today, I am making the biggest gingerbread house ever to keep my mind of tww

Hello all...I have not been here in a few weeks but wow this forum already has 23 pages. An update with me...I am 6dpo I had intrauterine insemenation last tuesday so I am in the tww. unfortunately I have to take HCG to cause me to ovulate so right now if I test I will get a fake BFP the HCG is usually out of my system after ten days. As for symptoms, I am always nauseous after eating, I am having very mild menstrual cramps :-( I am having upset stomach every time I wake up. from sleep or a nap. Again all of these symptoms can be due to the fact that I have HCG in my system so it will give me pregnancy symptoms. So I am praying praying praying that I have a early Christmas gift. I am supposed to test on December 14th but yall know that aint gonna happen I already cleared walmarts shelf of cheapie HPT. So I'm hoping that the mild menstrual cramps is not a bad omen.

Wishing you all

Rita

Hello all,

Hope everyone had a good weekend. to those who have gotten and to those still waiting to test!!!

Armywife: DH and I have been ttc for 14 months now. We found out by accident back in March that I have PCOS. I was having lots of pain on my left side at the start of my period in Jan and Feb - so OB/GYN ordered a u/s to see if I had a cycst - maybe why I also wasn't pregnant. The u/s just happened to fall one day before O - I temp and the tech could tell my cervix was open - TMI sorry!!!!
Anyway, the results did not show any sign of cysts, but it showed my follile size to be only 7mm at O. They should be somewhere between 18-24 mm ideally. With my diagnosis they statred me on metformin and said to give it 3 months. When I went back in July the wanted to start clomid - but wanted DH to have an SA first. THANK GOD the sa came back great and DH doesn't have any issues!!!! We would have been in a ton of trouble if he had issues too!
I started 50mg clomid - to help my follicles grow bigger - in August. After 3 cycles and no I decided to see and RE. I love me RE - he's a very smart DR. This past month was my first month with him. He increased my dose to 100mg but still ended with a !
I am currently cd 28 and 13dpo but started spotting yesterday. The is due tomorrow or Wednesday. Still feeling pretty down. Very disappointed that we won't be able to get a before Christmas. I'm very impatient for to just show up so I can start focusing on the next cycle. This mponth RE is switching to 7.5mg Femara. this works better!
All in all - everyone is different. I'd say give it another month or two but if you still don't get ur to call ur Dr. And if ur regular Dr doesn't have a lot of experience with infertility or ur just not happy with his plan - to go see an RE. They specialize in infertly and I have learned a lot.
You get ur soon!!!!

Hey everyone, back from London and logged on to see who else is a BFP !?
Good luck to all those coming up to testing, and those waiting to ovulate!

I stocked up on HPTs today, going to test tomorrow, but I'm expecting a BFN. All my symptoms seem to have vanished. But we will see when AF shows I guess....

Goodluck to those about to test with me, and all those waiting to conceive/ovulate.
