October 2015 Babies!!
Here I go again. Day 1 of a new cycle. Let this one be my month! Tired of being disappointed month after month. If it wasn't for the site I surely would have given up long ago.

MARGIE- I am so sorry! Hopefully you will catch that bean this month. FX for you.
DSINHA- I have felt those feeling just after ovulation before.
AFM: 3 DPO. Nothing much happening. Except recently I have felt major fluttering in my lower stomach. It's almost similar to when driving over a big hill and you loose your stomach. I Have felt it a handful of times. Anyone else ever had this feeling?

So I am now terrified. I have been putting off applying for promotions because I was hoping to have a baby and go on maternity leave. THEN apply for the promotion. But we have been trying for number 2 since July. However, a job has come open that would be great to have and pays about 10,000 more a year than I currently make now. Also, I can work a more flexible schedule in terms of hours. But I am scared because what if I get this new job and have to learn all the new programs, and find out I am pregnant. This is a busier job with more pressure, and I am scared they will be mad when I go on maternity leave for 3 months.
HELP...Should I go for the job or stay put for a little longer.

Anybody had this - am cycle day 17 (think I ovulated between day 12-14) and have a lot of cramping on left side of lower abdomen plus have achy lower back. not due to period for another 11-12 days... very odd never had this before only day of my period starting...
Anyone had like implantation/early early pregnancy signs and had these symptoms?

Nikki, I agree with Margie. If it's a job you really want then I would go for it. GL!!! As for the fluttery stomach feeling, I haven't experienced it myself so I couldn't really say what it is. But I really hope it's your body preparing itself for a little miracle!
I'm doing tons better today. My sweet SIL dropped by unannounced earlier and gave me a gift card to Charming Charlie's (a cute jewelry store). My brother had suggested she give me flowers when they found out about the m/c, but she thinks the same way as me: flowers die, but jewelry lives on!
I'm thinking we're gonna skip a month trying and then try for a November baby. We originally didn't want a baby in Oct, Nov or Dec because we have so many during that timeframe, but I'm thinking I don't care anymore. It's kind of like Nikki's job situation. I can't wait until everything lines up just perfect because that will never happen. I just need to let life happen.
(I'm still sticking around in the October forum because I like you guys!)

NIKI:
I think I feel kind of fluttering in my stomach along with lower back pain. It's a strange feeling. I am not sure if that is something from what I ate or something special. I guess we will find out shortly. I think we might be cycle buddies :)
I am on 3 dpo and I am feeling really weird with fluttering feeling in my stomach and lower back pain like a mild form of the one before AF. I am trying not to overthink it.
About jobs, I envy you for being able to stay at home. I hate wasting my days at work and coming home all exhausted and beat up to the point that I just want to go to bed. If you're up for a job, I think you should apply and go for it and worry about making a decision after you have an offer letter at hand. You cannot plan for everything especially about having a baby. If you take the job and get pregnant, the company will understand coz everyone knows that "Life Happens!"
MARGIE: So sorry to hear about getting so close to BFP. I'd like to believe that everything happens for a reason. I hope you get a big fat BFP this cycle.
HANNA: thanks for the tip about pineapples. Btw, I am allergic to pineapples just like ECESWEETIE What was the chances of that!
HOLLY: excuse my ignorance but what does metformin pills do? Who knows I may need it too. Sorry to hear it's so painful. I hope it works for all the trouble you had to go through.
KELLY: I am in the same situation. My bbt temps keeps fluctuating and now, I am not sure when I ovulated. It's not easy to detect the exact ovulation timing.
ECESWEETIE: I am experiencing similar cramping. I am on CD16 - 3DPO. AF is quite far away. I wish someone could just tell me what is going on. It's heartbreaking when you hope and hope and ends in bfn.
Wish everyone gets their BFP pretty soon!!!!

Desinah- metformin is to control insulin levels. Usually used with type 2 diabetics but also with PCOS. if insulin is too high it can cause you not to ovulate. But man it's side effects are a pain in the butt....literally. it can take your body up to several weeks to get past them.
I think we are cycle buddies. I am also having the lower back cramps too...FX this is our month.
AFM I currently work at a college. The job would just be switching departments. But after talking to the supervisor of the open position...I think I am going to wait and see after March. We move into our new house then and my dh will be home more and we can talk about me changing jobs.
