Dragonfly - Im out. I went to the bathroom and wiped again there was blood but a period blood. Otherwise, heightened smell, crampy, nauseated if I don't eat ( normal), more sad then normal. Not really feeling that I am pregnant.

@e_massey hey cycle twin!!! Let's get this!

@alex fingers crossed for you!!

Today is 7dpo and I had some acid reflux after having macaroni salad and pita bread for breakfast. Been gassy a day or two now and I'm trying not to symptom spot. Also have a combo of creamy/stretchy cm. My appetite isn't as strong as it normally is at this point in the 2ww. I'm just calm and ok.

@Hberry. What do you mean it was pink and then went dark? Maybe it is implantation bleed. Did you test? I sure hope it isn't AF. I still have high hopes for your BFP.

@Punk. I had heartburn in the throat area after eating pasta.

Dragonfly- it was dark like dried blood from last cycle. Also coming out in clots when I now pee and its bright red. Im so crushed

@Hberry. I'm so truely sorry hun. Everyone was rooting for you. Praying that next cycle is your month.

dragonfly - thanks. I told my husband and he knew how badly I wanted this. My daughter is even crushed which makes me hurt worse

E such amazing news! I’m pretty sure that the dream of every couple is their own house. I know at least that this is the case for us! Hopefully you’ll be having some more amazing news in a few days!

Dark so happy to see that you might be having your bfp! You can always share your tests here if you like a second opinion and also feed us lineaholics lol

Punk Thanks babe! Are you planning testing early?

Hberry I’m so sorry hun! This is so unfair after all these symptoms. That’s why I try to ignore “symptoms” cuz I’ve learned the hard way that our bodies are practically mocking us and giving us pregnancy signs even when not pregnant. The truth is that the woman’s body is indeed preparing for pregnancy each cycle hence the symptoms but again this is so freaking unfair! I really hope you’ll be feeling cheerful in a few days and ready for a new cycle!

AFM I really hope I had someone who have experience with Metformin cuz I’m pretty sure I’m getting some side effects. RE said to take 500mg for 7 days and then if I don’t get side effects to double it to 1000mg for another 7 days and then 1500mg same thing and finally 2000mg. I’m on second phase for 3 days now and I’m getting every time I take it super painful bloating and feeling of trapped gas. I mean the bloating you look like 3 months pregnant. I really wanted to keep up with the medication but it’s too painful.
Other than that I’m 3dpo and just today got my usual after ovulation breast pain. I also feel extremely achy on my muscles but again I don’t know if is the medication. Tiredness hit me hard but I’m sure is because I’m back to work after 3 months so yea... I’m very confused about what this medication give me as side effects and what is my body’s real different feelings. I for sure feel awful lol I’m not feeling my self at all

Alex I just read about someone who went through IVF, she got tons of problems- endometriosis, pcos and so on, but she refused to use metformin because it has ton of really bad side effects and overall are not good for you, thats what she said after doing ton of reasearch. So maybe think it over is this medicine worth it, especially because you don't have pcos or anything else like that. Her Instagram is mrs.katbb4me if you wanna check out her recent stories, she talked about it just yesterday again.

Alex- Metformin is a diabetic medicine and recently just discovered there is bad stuff in it. https://www.wsaw.com/content/news/FDA-finds-contamination-in-several-brands-of-diabetes-drug-570872871.html
AFM cd 2 and still super bummed out. I thought I had everything covered but guess not. I blame the kyleena for screwing up my body, I blame the stress and I am blaming myself. I never had issues conceiving before until now. My daughter had the worst time sleeping in her bed last night so we pulled her into ours and she stayed by me the entire night cuddled up. She must've sensed I was that very upset.

@Hberry. I think so too about your daughter. My son was wasn't feeling good yesterday and spent the majority sleeping; he's almost 18 months. Please don't blame yourself as you did everything you could. Stay strong.
