Hey ladies! I’m still lingering here! Congrats PPP020 hoping the line gets darker!
Sorry to the ladies who had AF rear her ugly head! Hope you get your BFPs this cycle! Xx
AFM I am patiently (or unpatiently) awaiting my 8 wk scan on April 23. Had my bloods done to check my progesterone levels, dr said if they were below 60 she would put me on progesterone suppositories, levels came back at 70.9! So far everything is progressing normally and I’m just praying they continue to progress. Almost wish I was going for another HCG test to ensure they are still doubling normally, but then I’d just have something else to stress about! Lol.
It’s amazing how much you worry about every little thing when you’re TTC and then it doubles when you finally get your BFP!

@BB2018 - For me, with EPO I’d say it took 6-7 days too see an increase in cm. I really just observed more fertile cm during all my fertile days. Hope that helps!
@Tryingafterloss - Those sound like great progesterone levels! Can’t wait to hear about your 8week scan!
AFM - i’m Having trouble deciding if I should test in the morning or not. I’ll be 13DPO and DH and I just want to know if we conceived or not this cycle. I want to hold off for 14DPO, but at the same time I just want to test and get it over with. I can always take another test if I skip my period.

Flamingogirl I'm in the same boat as you... I had a tiny bit of spotting today at 8 dpo (honestly the teeniest spot of brown blood) and I'm no longer dizzy or cramping. I have an 11 day luteal phase so I'm thinking it could be AF on it's way so I'm tempted to test already just to get it over with. When are you going to test? I'm due Monday so will test Sunday and spend the day in mourning and then just get back on with it!!

Ooh, i can't wait to see if any of the hpts coming up are positive! I thought i was having period cramps but it wasn't. So, that may be good news?
Tryingafteraloss, im worried about my levels. I thought i was in the higher end but the nurse called yesterday and said they called the 4th and wanted me to come back in for 1 more hcg test. She said my levels low? At 3w4d it was 101 and 4w it was 410. Isnt that normal? I go at 9 this morning to get labs again. Now I'm a nervous wreck!

@Flamingogirl13 - oh no so I should’ve started taking it on CD1? I thought I wasn’t supposed to start taking it til after AF???? I’m CD10 today and been taking it for 3 days, I hope it still helps me. I did see extra cm this am, and I usually don’t ovulate til CD12-14 (I have a 27 day cycle) so I’ll just keep everything crossed it’ll all work out still????????

Happy Friday everyone! I don't have any advice to offer anyone but am praying for all of your BFPs!
Today I am either 4dpo or 6dpo. I don't track my ovulation because I stressed myself out with that. I was worried about drinking my coffee in the mornings but not anymore. I decided that it's not worth to get worried over and I will know soon enough whether I'm pregnant or not. Cancelled my HIDA scan. I'm sure my dr thinks I'm nuts thinking I'm pregnant every month but I decided after googling and talking with the HIDA acan specialist, it's better to err on the side of caution.
I'm glad to come to participate in this forum! Reading what all of you are going through and for myself to be able to post helps the TWW to go by fast. Staying positive, hopeful and busy does wonders. My only advice, DON'T symptom spot. It relieves so much unnecessary worries! :)
Have a great Friday!

Happy Friday! Just checking in & reading updates. I have had so many headaches and so much dizziness the last few days... I hope I’m not getting sick! That would not be good!
I’m still waiting on a solid smiley on OPK. Getting frustrated because all the signs of ovulation are there.
to all!
