Hey ladies! It has been a while since I have been on here. Life got crazy with the holidays and my cycle just wouldn’t start again. Then around the 3rd of January I had some brown spotting and figured AF was finally showing her face. Well AF never showed and life got even crazier!! Our apartment caught fire and we lost just about everything a week ago today. We are now living with my in-laws and I jokingly thought “ha it would be my luck that we get pregnant now when nothing is going right.” I then realized AF never started and my chest has been hurting a lot lately. So I went and got an FRER today.......do you see it?

@Shay, sorry to hear your news of the fire. Yes, I do see something! Congrats on this wonderful news.

Yay!! So happy to see another positive @Shay. Sorry about everything else though! I got my BFP the day after Christmas. And had my first ultrasound Monday. Not much to look at quiet yet, but still very exciting!

TS I see the bub. How exciting. Did they give you an EDD?

I have been trying for 3 years. I am 41 and have only been pregnant 2 times. I had an abortion in college and a miscarriage in my early thirties. I have had a problem with fibroids and have had 2 myomectomies the latest last august. I am currently in my first cycle of doing IUI and i am praying it takes on the first go. I had my ultrasound on Monday and they saw 3 eggs on the right and 1 large on eon the left. I am on letrozloe and will do my shot on the 20th. Keep me in your parers I need this to work the first time! Good luck to all of you ladies!!

Well I am so very confused. That first test is a definite positive, but I tried a digital yesterday just to get a definite negative. Blah! I know digitals aren’t as sensitive so I am trying to wait till the weekend to test again. My chest has been hurting almost nonstop except when my bra is off. Had mild cramping back and forth and just exhausted!! I am really trying to stay patient and not get too excited yet since my cycles are all over the place. If I am actually pregnant I would have had to ovulate somewhere between the 1st and 6th of January. I guess it is just a waiting game now.

@shanta welcome and we are rooting for you!! It all sounds promising for you!! Keep us updated!
@TS I am so excited for you!! It must be so exciting to actually see something on the screen!!

EDD is Sept 6. It was very exciting. Now I’m just nervous for the next one at 8 weeks where we will look for the heart beat. I think I need to hear it before I can relax a little and finally take this all in as real! I’ve been super tired and had tender breasts since about 4 weeks, and nauseous since 5 weeks.

@Shanta for you! We are rooting for it to work the first time

@Shay I didn’t take a digital till I had a VERY obvious line on a FRER, just so I knew it couldn’t be negative

Thanks ladies and I will keep you update. I also have a discussion forum called ttc 2019 if any of you want to come give input@

Welcome, shanta! Fingers and toes crossed your first attempt works. I have a fibroid as well but doc says not to worry since he has delivered many babies with fibroids being involved.

@Shay I wouldnt be to upset like TS said it's better to wait on digital ones.

CD 11 inching closer to O time. BDing isnt happening like I want but hopefully I will get me some tonight.

Getting my hair done Friday. It's been since the summer that I had it done. Told my SO we ate having a date night Friday.

Anyone on here been thru IUI??
