July 2016 Babies!!!
Welcome to all who are hoping for July 2016 babies....a place for encouragement, a laugh, therapy, discussion....who else better relates to us than someone going through the same thing? Whether you're on cycle #1 or 100, ttc your first or tenth, each cycle presents its own challenges, highs, lows, heartbreak and hopefully happy ending. Let's go through it together!
Good luck and

I tested this morning and BFN probably. I'm only 8dpo but I had a big temp surge and was feeling lucky. I think I see a shadow of a line, but it could be line eye. I'll test again tomorrow. I got a positive at 8dpo last time which is why I tested so early, but every time is different so I know it's early days yet to be expecting a bfp.
I'll try to take a pic later and post.

Ooh, and softcups are these little diaphragm things that are meant to be worn during your period to catch the blood instead of a tampon. Really gross, I know. But for fertility I swear by them. You insert one after BDing, and it kinda scoops up all the swimmers and holds then all against your cervix so they won't fall out when you pee or walk. I leave it in for 8-12 hrs after bd. It's like laying down with a pillow under your but, except you don't have to! I used them for the first time when I got pg with Oscar and I'm hoping they work for me again.

kmksmd I am sorry showed. I did not do any lab test as Doctor said that at this point, she does not think any would help. Feel better my dear, I know it s really hard. Hope your DH is being very supportive.
Luna red your comment made me smile. But yes get at it and good luck
Jku I tried clomid 50 mg CD 5-9 last cycle and I had all these crazy symptoms that made me think I had ovulated and I was pregnant. I actually ovulated later than I thought and now that I am thinking about all of those symptons with a rested mind , I would say the most reliable one was my EWCM. I should have not even rely on my BBT. So I hope it will work for you. FX this month.
Calvin girl I have for you. Please keep us updated. Thinking about trying with soft cups maybe next cycle.
AFM: I am feeling much better ladies. I took some time for me this cycle and even though it is still hard, I am getting there. This cycle no clomid for me. Only metformin. Also I am doing a little bit of crocheting, it helps to relax me. Also with DH , we are not really BD , but we are not preventing it neither. We are taking it easy and having fun.

Hello Ladies,
As some of you may know, I got my BFP earlier this month on 9 DPO. EDD June 19, 2016. My HCG levels at 10 DPO were 13. On 17 DPO I went back to the doctor he told me to expect my levels to be around 300-500, they were 1200. So everything is looking promising. First ultrasound is October 30.
I will be creeping on this board, in hopes to see a lot of BFPs from you ladies. I just loved BFP stories. It also will help me pass time, just like it helps with the horrid TWW for you ladies. I have my fingers crossed for all you ladies & I pray this month is your month.

kmksmd: I dont have my blood test done until the 30th and get my results on Nov 6th. I'm not sure if they will be doing any hormonal tests but I think I will request that in my Nov appointment if they don't.
AFM: Just trying to keep the carbs and the sugar limited, I'm pretty sure my issue is inflammation. I think last month I was pregnant but the week of my period I was not feeling good and all I could eat was carbs and there for giving me bad inflammation. I'm trying to eat foods that reduce inflammation too, just started eating pineapple (according to the internet that helps). Has or does anyone else have issues with inflammation? In looking up inflammation it seems to be the cause of PCOS and insulin resistance but my periods are very regular so I don't think it's that bad right now. I may request to get an ultrasound to see if there is any scaring or cysts as I do get mild cramps when it's not my period.
to everyone!

MMCali- Congratulations! Thanks for checking in on us.
Lalou3tt3- Thanks for the info! :) So far I have not had any symptoms. I tried crocheting a couple years back- good luck with your creations. I was good at making the chain and then would get frustrated haha
Calvingirl- did you test today???
xoxojadorecouture- Welcome!
Luna_red- did you get to your marathon??? Today is the expected O right???
kmksmd- sorry AF showed up at the wedding. I am also on cycle 11 this month. FX 11 is a lucky number.
AFM- Sorry I haven't posted in a few days, I didn't have any news...but I've been lurking. I had my CD 10 follicle scan this morning. It was at 7 am, so the doctor wasn't in so they are going to call me later with the official results and recommendations. What the tech told me was that there are 2 larger follicles on the R ovary 15mm & 18 mm, and 1 larger one on the L ovary 15mm. There are also a bunch on both sides that are much smaller. I have no idea what this means or if it is good or what. So, I am waiting for my phone call. The 5 days of clomid went well, I had no symptoms at all. Which surprised me. I was advised to start my OPK's this morning, and for the first time there was actually a line! It wasn't dark enough to be considered positive...but there was a good and clear almost positive line. In 11 cycles I have never had anything close to a line especially on CD 10. I had been getting some faint lines (never pos) around CD 16.
Thoughts?
