BYOB: Lets Make Some Babies!!
Hi ladies!!
Lets start things off as usual.... with an introduction/update!
My name is Joy
I am 28 (29 in about a week), and dh is 29
we've been together 10yrs
Got married and bought a house together in 2009
From Canada
I'm currently a housewife, but hope to soon be a stay at home mom
I got pg back in the summer of 2010 then m/c'd at 8 weeks
We ttc for 8 cycles after the m/c, (10 months)
We have a nursery room all set up waiting for baby
I got a BFP on June 30th 2011
Had a missed m/c on Aug 18th 2011
Since then I have been rushed to the hospital 3 times for excessive bleeding (once via ambulance cause I passed out)
I have had 2 emergency D&C's, 2 Folley Ballooons, 3 blood transfusions of 2 bags each, & a Hysteroscopey. (Not to be confused with a "HysterECTAMY")
I Finally got back to TTC in Jan/Feb 2012 and on March 21st I got my BFP!
I am currently almost 11 weeks pregnant!
My first ob/gyn apt was Wed April 4th 2012
He put me on progestrone and asked to see me in 2 weeks
My next apts were April 19th 2012 & May 3rd
At our May 3rd apt (at 9 weeks5 days) we heard the best sound ever - our little one's heartbeat!!
We're going for our 1st non-diagnostic u/s on May 15th!
My due date is Dec 1st 2012!
This is truly an amazing group of ladies & I really hope our string of luck (& bfps) continues!! ladies!

First off, Nicole!!
Jill, do you have more tests? If you do I say go for it. I like the 88 cent ones from walmart. I don't feel like I wasting as much money when I use those! Although, all the stress of being in the hospital for so long could have done a number on your cycle.
Joy, I love how much time you spend with your Mom! I wish I could see mine that often. But she lives three hours away! Hopefully someday we can move back to that area.
Krunchie, what kind of spots? I hope you are feeling better soon!
AFM, I forgot to mention yesterday that my older fur-baby had surgery! He had some warts on his head that we decided to have removed. My poor puppy! Let me tell you, I don't think I can ever handle having a human child who had to have surgery! I almost started bawling when the vet tech brought him out to us! I was terrible! The warts that were smaller than the tip of my pinkey needed incisions about an inch and a half long. I hate that we decided to have it done He will be better in the long run but I can't stand looking at him knowing he didn't HAVE to get cut open! LOL
On a different note, to all you ladies that have gotten your bfp - did any of you experience cold like symptoms before a positive test? On monday I had a sore throat, exhaustion, body aches and slightly stuffy nose, tuesday just a bit tired, wednesday still tired but better than the day before and today the sore throat is back, stuffy nose, achey body and my nipples are slightly sore. I don't want to test as I am still 6 days away from my blood work test but could these really be REAL symptoms? Or from the progesterone? Or estrogen? LOL I feel like such a druggie with all the stuff they have me on!

Congrats nicole and Liz!!!!
So I had a bit of blood tonight. Just enough to see when I wiped but none on my pad. It stopped right away. Is it possible it's implantation?
Or. My cervix Was open on Sunday when we bd'd. Is it possible I was ovulating then and this is implantation.
I'm so confused!
Df says he thinks I'm ovulating NOW. I do have ewcm. So confused

Thank you everyone! So excited!
And Liza, ! When is your EDD?! Mine is Jan. 28th!
Cris: Thanks! I feel like I haven't see you on here in a while?! Unless I've skipped ya. How are you doing? It's been about a year since I started following this thread so you Jenn & Joy have been there since the beginning for me. I REALLY hope you'll be over on CMP with Joy, Jenn and I soon!
Alicia: I've had a stuffy nose for 3 days now! So YES it's totally a good symptom!
Jill: sorry about your confusing cycle. I agree stress might have thrown things off. So its hard to say where you're at. Hopefully it was IB!
AFM: Well, obviously I'm walking on cloud 9 today. PLUS, I text messaged my very dear friend who's been ttc since June to tell her the news. I felt kinda bad telling her though I knew she's be excited for me. She said that she wasn't going to be testing till Saturday but after my news, decided to jump the gun and she got a bfp! Her due date is the same as mine! So fun! Plus our kids our 2 1/2 weeks apart. We started ttc at totally different times back then and it just ended up that way so its fun to be due with her again!

It's exciting to hear from so many that things are working out well for you. YAY!!!!
Me: AF just left, so I am a little bored? Sounds weird, but now I'm waiting for O so I can wait for POAS... So I guess I want to hurry up and wait! LOL
Oh well, I'll have fun EOD and see what happens. Maybe some of y'all's luck will rub off on some of us who haven't been able to avoid the witch!
