Thank you ladies... still gonna hang out here on this board for now :)

I had a mmc in 2014. After my d&e, it took 6 wks to get af. It was heavy for 6 days. My periods are so light usually 2-3 days. The second was heavy and crampy but not as bad as 1st. 3rd was normal.

Midnightrose, i totally agree. In my 20s i just had fun and what er will be, will be. I didn't have my 1st til 37. It was a chore sometimes then cause after a long day at work its just not worth the effort sometimes, opks, fertility meds, adulting. Now, at 39 (40 when the baby will be born) i almost gave up. Juggling a 2 yr old on top of the same things as i did at 39 made it even more a chore instead of fun. Planning around naps, work, not having the energy i once did. Lol.

I am so excited that every time I check in there’s more BFPs. I’m still patiently waiting. I’m 8 dpo and I promised I wouldn’t text until I’m late! Eeeck.

@BB2018 - I think that happened to me to. I was really excited, but then they never got darker keep your chin up!

I read this thread almost everyday and decided I should start posting!
My husband and I are 25 & 27. Trying for baby number one! This is only our second month trying so it’s all so so new to us! I am using OPKs and haven’t gotten my smiley yet. We are bding every day/other day to make sure our ground is covered!

Congrats to all the BFPs so far. Hoping we all get one!

Yay! It’s so exciting trying for our first! I’m CD 10. :) expecting to O any day now!

Hey ladies just popping in for an update. I had my bhcg levels drawn last Thursday and they were 50, went again this morning and my levels are now 544!!! I’m so happy and praying that this pregnancy lasts!! FX’d. Have my first ultrasound booked for April 23. Praying I see a healthy heartbeat! ??

Hoping you all get your BFP’s this month!! X

Hi all! Just checking in to see how everyone is doing.
Photomama, i used the cup frequently and never bled. It helped me though! Hopefully, it wasnt that hurting you. Good luck on the new job!
K8mcm88, i had early symptoms as well. 6-9 dpo i cramped really bad. 8-10dpo nauseous and heightened smells. Now im 15dpo and just heightened smell. The cramps and nausea left.
Tryingafteraloss, i had mine done too. On Fri (11dpo, 3w4d) my levels were 101 and 3 days later on Mon (14dpo, 4wks) levels were 410. I looked up average levels and at 4wks that is high end of normal. That makes me feel better. I was worried about ectopic. I was a hot mess ttc now it's even worse cause I'm worried about mc. I'll feel a relief after i hit the 12w mark. My 1st ultrasound is April 27. Dd should be dec 9th or 10th.
Calvingirl, i had 3 day afs as well. This month i added maca and baby asprin and got bfp. That's the only new things. I was worried about progesterone and lining and they can help.
Shifali, 3 rupture! Wow. I'm impressed. That's good. I did well to get 1! Good luck!

Thank you everyone for the well wishes and prayers. Just have to keep positive thoughts in my head and that my baby is fine and growing strong. Will keep everyone posted.

Hi ladies I’m new to following this thread, but we’ve been ttc actively since August2017. I just started using OPKs this month and “supposedly” hit ovulation right on the head. I’ve been having so many strange symptoms since 3dpo that I’ve never experienced before! Took a HPT on April 1st at 9dpo and got a VERY faint line within 3min, but tested again the next morning and got a BFN. I don’t know what’s going on! I had a blood test done on Monday and waiting to hear back from the dr about the results.. Trying to not get our hopes up because everything I’ve researched can go either way. I’ve never reached out to anyone before, but always read comments and boards. If anyway has any advice I am ALL EARS! Good luck to everyone that’s still in the game this month!
