Clavingirl its been a very long road - longer then I ever thought but who knows whats around the corner for us

Danielle congrats on your I hope more of us will be joining you soon.

AFM I am 11DPO and I think I am out. slight cramping today - no other symptoms - still have very weird vivid dreams but that is nothing new for me. will be here either Saturday or Sunday. I am feeling ok about that its getting easier to come to terms with it the longer I TTC.

to you all and to anyone testing over the weekend. x

Thanks Violet - that does help. I'm 2 days till AF is due, and I'm overemotional, but no other symptoms of AF coming. So that's good.

Tests are still BFN though, so that's not good. I probably am out. I have a Halloween party to go to on saturday anyway, and I want to drink, so maybe it'll work out and I won't have to be depressed about it. Plus next round is 100mg clomid, and it's something I haven't tried - maybe it'll work.

How's everyone else doing? Any testers?

I'm still only cd12 so poas twice a day atm and trying to bd every other day but df has been taking Maca root so it's peaked his interest so it's a but more often. Is it wrong to think on the off days I just want to snuggle up and go straight to sleep and really cba lol I know that when the Opk changes we will be at it like rabbits for a few days !!!
The GP referred me to a fertility specialist last week but we really want to give it a few more cycles on our own first

Fingers crossed for all those testing this weekend x I'm offline this weekend so am looking forward to seeing some bfP's on Monday xxx

Ladies, wanted to share some positive news. Got a BFP yesterday at 9dpo on a FRER Gold Digital. Have been TTC for almost a year, and this month is the first month my doctor had me taking oral progesterone. Wondering if I had been deficient all this time?

Praying for a healthy pregnancy and wishing everyone the very best!

Congratulations Ma'am! Good for you, especially after trying for a year. Remember to keep taking that progesterone till 2nd trimester.

AFM, is due tomorrow and it feels like she might be on time. Every month it just gets worse to handle. DH and I had a big fight because his contract just ended, so he's looking for a new job and he's stressed and bitching/whining about EVERYTHING. In the meantime, I'm pms'ing, and it's the couple of days leading to AF when I know I'm out - so I'm wicked depressed. I snapped at him to stop whining and actually DO something about it and now we're not speaking. He is the King of passive aggressive revenge, so I'm currently getting the silent treatment which is just making everything worse.

Man, I wish we could get pregnant without men. ugh.

Calvingirl,

Thanks for your kind words. I Called the nurse today and told her I only have 2 pills left and she told me I could discontinue. She doesn't want to run a blood test until next week... a little worried about this. Do you know if it's standard practice to stop progesterone after getting a positive?

Thanks!

hello ladies,

I was catching up on this post. Congrats to the BFP so far! and Good luck and to those still waiting to test.

I'm on cycle day 12 waiting to ovulate. Just got my OPK surge today. time to get busy

This is our 3rd cycle of trying after a MC at 9 weeks in March. I've been taking baby aspirin the last two cycles, and am trying Pre-seed this cycle...

Hello Meghan looks like we are cycle buddies, I'm cd12 also and poas twice a day - I haven't had my surge yet. Sorry to hear your story fingers crossed for you this cycle. What is baby aspirin ? I've never heard of it only ever the regular aspirin.

Ma'am - I don't know much about progesterone I'm afraid - but I'm sure if the nurse has told you to discontinue it must be safe x
Fingers crossed for you

Congrats, Ma'am!!! Wishing you a happy/healthy 9 months!!

AFM - I'm pretty sure I'm 7 dpo today, so still too early to test. Temps are still rising, so I'm hopeful but trying not to focus on that, which is hard.

My sister is 41 weeks pregnant and supposed to get induced today. I'm incredibly excited to meet my nephew, but I'm also struggling a little bit. She announced her pregnancy to us a couple weeks after my first MC, and after my most recent loss, our relationship has been sort of strained. I think she just doesn't know how to talk to me, and... I don't know either because some days I want to know everything about her pregnancy and some days it's hard for me to hear her complain about being uncomfortable in her last trimester because I would give anything to be in her uncomfortable shoes.

Anyway. I AM excited that my nephew will be here very soon. I already love him so much and haven't even met him yet. And that's all I let my sister see. But sometimes after talking to her and feeling that excitement, I have a lot of sadness afterwards. I can't help but wonder why in the time that she's been able to have a healthy pregnancy, I've lost two.

Sorry to put all this out there. I'm just feeling so many different emotions today with her about to go to the hospital to get induced. I can't tell my family because I don't want to be the dark cloud over a VERY happy day, and sometimes I think my husband needs a break from my crying to him about all this. I mean, he's been just as broken as I have been over our losses.

Anyway - I hope you guys don't think too poorly of me for this. I really am excited for my sister, and trying to stay positive. Just... needed to get that out. And hoped you guys would understand.

I'm thinking of all of you and hoping to see more BFPs from you guys this month!! Going through this difficult journey has definitely taught me what a miracle those two pink lines really are!

Tested today at 9 dpo, BFN :( Still early though! SO emotional today it's ridiculous. Can't wait for this TWW to be over, one way or another.

Congrats on the ma'am, how exciting!!
