Thanks firsttimemommy! And a bigggg congrats to you! I checked out your gallery, that is so wonderful!

@felurian - well the challenge is I have an HMO that apparently doesn't like to pay for fertility stuff. I think they will cover the bloodwork - I have to get the karyotype test pre-authorized. My hubby has United Healthcare and I guess they are really good, so as soon as I can get on his that will be great.

He wants to do I think a hysteroscopy and a hysterosalpinogram. Apparently the hysteroscopy is really expensive. He said that the hospital charges like $12 or 13k (non contract fee apparently).

What have you had?

@first - thank you. He thinks I may have scar tissue from my D&C or some sort of malformation that could have been there from birth. He said there could be fibroids. He also said we could just be unlucky and have gotten three bad eggs. He said it is very unusual to have three losses in a row like this.

Firsttime: so so so happy for you! I think the cake idea is so awesome! Or the easter egg idea someone mentioned if you can't wait until the 25th! Lots and lots of sticky vibes to you!! You make me want to test now lol but I'm trying to hold my ground!

Congratulations firsttimemommy!! So happy for you!! I definitely think someone's idea of the Easter egg is the way to go! I think waiting until the 25th will drive you stir crazy! Also, if you're anything like I have been the last couple of days, the rage may be apparent to your husband!

I took a digital yesterday to get my ultimate confirmation and it's saying 1-2 weeks so will be ringing my doc today to confirm with her! I'm reeeaaally grumpy at the moment though. Everything is making me get quite stroppy which although is naturally hell for everyone I'm around, I was exactly the same 7 years ago when I had my daughter so hopefully that's a sign I'm progressing well??
Having a bit of a hard time with regards to my other half too. Clearly cautious because of last month all he is doing is saying "early days" "don't get excited" blah blah blah. Which is well and good, probably the ideal way to be at the moment I guess BUT that's not how I want to feel. I want to shout it from the roof tops, dance and skip as I walk down the round you know! It just feels like like he's sucking away from me what should now be a fab time. :-(

Firsttime - congrats! I'm so excited for you!

While - Hope you can get the insurance changed quickly. At least now you are finally getting answers.

Congrats to the BFPS! Sorry to those the witch got.

AFM - my temp dropped a few days ago so I thought AF was finally coming so I could get on with next cycle. My normal temps have been around 96.80. Yesterday my temp was 97.18, and then this morning it was 97.58. The last few days I have noticed increased stretchy CM. Yesterday was the most and then not much of anything this morning. Is my body still trying to ov even on CD37? I knew going on a diet would mess with my cycle, but I didn't think it would mess with it this much. I thought I wouldn't ov this month, now I'm not sure what is going on.

Hi everyone.
I'm so confused today. So temp dropped 2 days ago and the watery bleeding has gotten a little heavier and red so I just assumed that AF going to come full blast. But then this morning my temp shot up 1/2 degree! I have no clue if I should consider this a light AF or heavy spotting. It's heavy enough to fill a panty liner, but not heavy enough for a tampon (sorry TMI). I don't know if I should test again or just wait it out.

13 dpo and bfn this morning. I'll hold out for AF, but I will probably be heading to the January board. :(

congratulations firsttime!!

afm...AF is 6 days late today have not taken a test since Friday when it was negative and I was 2 days late I guess I am just scared to see a I think I am going to wait it out a little longer but not sure if I could do this...I have been having a lot of watery cum and gas I know tmi ..but it's just weird I keep thinking af is here and I run to the bathroom and nothing.. if I am pregnant I would be due around the same time I was supposed to be due last year but that pregnancy ended in miscarriage in May2013 we have been trying ever since and every month af has been here right on schedule except this month

tfor#3 - thanks!!! and i hope AF stays away!

khartt - thanks!!! and sorry about the BFN :(

hopefulmomma - really don't know what to say, but it'd be great if it was somehow implantation bleeding and not AF. FX'd for you!

hisladybug - thanks!!! and maybe you O'd finally on CD35 or 36??? i guess we'll find out!!

barely there - thanks!! lol so far no rage, i hope i don't! so those digitals, does the weeks mean total pregnancy, or count from conception? i'm glad you got a digital confirmation :) sorry DH is being a debbie downer, i understand being cautiously optimistic, but it's no fun when it's just you two together!

babydust85 - thanks!! lol, sure you can still hold out? ;) if it helps at all, not really anything different this cycle, i think that's part of why i missed the first positive. didn't see anything in a minute or two so i just put it away and never looked again.

while - LOL yeah i'm trying so hard to not freak out! didn't tell DH yet because I want to make for darn sure, and i want to video my surprise when i tell him :) so they're doing a scoping, right? that way they can visualize the inside of the uterus and if they see anything abnormal fix it right away? i really hope it's nothing big and that you can be up and ready to go asap, and get a sticky bean!!!

felurian - thanks!! so happy you have a little girl in your arms now :) i have a link below to my next test for progression.

skelly - aww thanks, you warm my heart :) tell DH thanks too!!!

rainbowbabe - thanks!! i hope your IUI went well!!

AFM, 11DPO. TWW symptoms are pretty typical. the bbs tenderness is dropping off like normal, nipples still sensitive. occasional shooting pains in the bbs which are new this cycle. also the last couple days i've actually felt full appetite-wise. i'm always hungry!!! and not craving chocolate as much. weird. anyhoo bloodwork scheduled this friday and next monday, hope they look good!!! i ordered a bday cake for my husband that i'll pick up tomorrow that says 'happy bday dad' on it, his bday is next friday and i just can't wait that long!!!! also i want to try to secret video his reaction :) here's an updated FRER shot for anyone interested to show line progression:
