Prayingfor1- yes TTC can be super hard stressful. I had everyone around me getting pregnant when I was TTC. It was so hard and I understand all those feelings. That's why I love these forums, you don't feel so alone.

Vtechgirl- wow that's a super early BFP. I can defiantly see it! Congrats and lee us updated!

@Holly860- Exactly, that is precisely why I decided to join. I work in a hospital and in the last year my floor alone has had 8 women who are either currently pregnant or have already had their babies. I try so hard to not be bitter but it's difficult sometimes. By the time I have my own baby, if I am fortunate enough to have one, all of my close friends kids will be in school already. I know that doesn't really matter but it does make me feel more alone.

Hi everyone,

Rather new to the forums, this is my 4th official cycle ttc, but 6 months total; had an Ectopic in May and was unable to try for 2 months.

Mostly here to follow

Fx for BFP this month and baby dust to everyone!

@holly680: that's what I thought. It's just hard when I have others on here saying it's an evap and that it's a false positive. Like come on.... keep the dream alive until blood results come in or at least until their period comes ya know? :(

Ruby0709- all they did for me was keep increasing my dose of clomid. The month I conceived I actually had lost some weight prior so I think that helped the clomid work. Even the month I got pregnant my 21 day progrsterone results were "borderline" ovulatory or "weak" ovulation. But hey i got a perfectly healthy boy from it. Ask to try femera if clomid isn't working, I Hear that works well sometimes in those where clomid didn't work.

Prayingfor1- don't get too down yet. How long have you been trying? There are many options out there you can try to help you get pregnant. It is hard when others "accidentally" get pregnant. When I was trying last time my SIL got pregnant while she had the IUD...I was like come on!!! Took everything in me to not fall apart when they announced it.

VTechgirl- don't give up. You never know. Maybe you ovulated earlier then you thought. I'm rooting for you!

AFM- I had a big glib of what kinda looked like EWCM?? We did bd last night so it might be from that? Next month I am going to start using OPK. Maybe clomid depending on what my dr says. Here is to hoping I dont need drugs!
I have to work all weekend but will try to stay in touch!
Have a good weekend

Holly 860 thank you for your kind words! I'm sorry to be so down and complaining. I'm just so emotional right now. And I'm scared that this may not be it.

@ Holly860- This is only my first cycle actually trying, I know it's rediculous for me to be this emotional about it already. Its just that I am turning 33 in December and I have PCOS and uterine fibroids. My ex husband and I were trying back when I was around 24 but never got pregnant so I guess I am just expecting that again.
Anyway, I forget what dpo you are but globs of cm could be a sign that you are starting to create a mucous plug. Do you chart your cervical position?

@ Vettechgirl- Keep being positive, I don't think people are trying to be mean or hurt you, I just think they are trying to be honest with what they think. I think that a lot of people on here have gotten their hopes up too far over nothing so feel that it's better to be hopeful but realistic, if you get what I'm saying. I hope when you retest it is a definite positive and there is no doubt.

I was able to bd as soon as my fiance got home from work yesterday so I'm hoping that we caught the egg. My temps are up, just need them to stay up to confirm ovulation.

@Ruby I talked to my naturopath about it and she sent me for blood tests to check my hormone levels. The lab made a mistake and forgot to do my progesterone. I was so upset and didn't want to wait another cycle so I bought emerita progesterone cream. It's all natural ingredients and a low dose so I'm not too concerned about using it. I just hope it works!

I'm 2DPO now, I started using progesterone cream after OPK's confirmed ovulation. I have the same sharp pain on my left side that I do every month from ovulation to when af shows. Super fearful I have cysts and they are the reasons why I haven't been able to conceive. I'm looking forward to getting in to see the fertility specialist. I hope they call to make my appointment soon!

@Prayingfor1 : I completely understand what you are saying. It would have been taken much better if you were the one commenting that. However this lady is a supposed doctor and is going around trolling and giving "free advice" which honestly is illegal unless you are an ACTUAL patient of hers. But still... either way I think I'm just emotional and I need to just stop believing what she says. To be honest I wanted to rip her a new one because can't a girl just have hope in posting a test instead of people ripping it up alive? Ugh whatever. All I know is that the next time she wants to post doctorly advice she better fix her grammar

welcome to the newcommers..
@vettechgirl11 how do i see your pic.. hoping for a bfp for you.
