Flamingo hey! Welcome and happy bday to your valentine baby!! How long were you trying last time? I really hope you won’t have to go through this for a long time! Fingers crossed for a November baby!!!

How everyone else is doing? Haven’t seen scuba for a while! Girl how are you?
Lalou Any updates? Have you tested?
Nasake? Do we have a line?

AFM oh boy! I saw this dream last night where I was pregnant around 20weeks and I was soooo extremely happy! I was showing everyone my bump and I was so grateful for having a healthy pregnancy. It was so cruel to wake up really. I still can feel the heaviness of my belly

I've been super busy in the mornings rushing to catch a train, but I'm 12DPO and still got line eye, because it was visible only when I was squinting really hard, so I'm pretty sure I just have really bad line eye and I'm going to try not to take any more tests until my period is supposed to come. I don't wanna hipe myself up, the fall would be too cruel, I am already feeling sadness about not BFP. And I had similar dream yesterday, but I even gave birth and got to hold my baby and I was so-so-so happy, waking up was so frikin sad :(

Oh man, I so hope it's your month Alex, during work when baby was sleeping (I'm a nanny, so I've got amazing job and I love it!) I thought about you and the thought about you being pregnant, I would literally cry if you announce your BFP because I'm cheering for you so hard, you seem like loveliest person on earth.

to all! I still hold some hope for BFP in my heart. And if it's not my month, I'm having fertility doc appointment on March 6, I'm freaking afraid, because it will most likely lead to IVF, but I need to just go there (been thinking about canceling it so much, because I'm really afraid) and to think about it as a blessing to have an option for us to have a baby. My countrys health insurance even covers most of IVF cost, so we need to be thankful for that.

Sorry for long post, wanted to get those thoughts out of my head.

Hey ladies!! Just wanted to stop by and check in!!!

Congrats to the positives that have come!!! I am so happy for you all!!

Those still testing, try to be patient. I used to test every day from 8 or 9 dpo and would be so discouraged and sad when it was negative. I finally got to the point where I refused to test until AF was late and if my bbt hadn’t dropped. That was the best decision I ever made. Took so much depression away and helped keep me calmer. I didn’t get my positive until I was 14-15dpo and there was no doubt about it being positive!! You got this ladies!!!

I really want to see some more positives from you ladies soon!! Alex I feel like it is your time! Hoping and praying you get to live your dream soon!! Same with you Nasake!!

AFM: I am about 9w3d at the moment. Still waiting for my first appointment next week!! Dying to see our little one and know that everything is going alright! I have been stressing the last week or so because I have randomly started to drop weight. I don’t have morning sickness so that isn’t the reason. I am trying not to look it up or anything so I don’t freak myself out more. I am hoping it is just because I have been eating healthier and my body is adjusting to it. We have only told close friends and our parents so far since we want to wait until we have that first appointment done with. I will be 10weeks by that appointment so I am really hoping we see some great things!!!

Good luck ladies!! I am still routing for all of you and checking in even if I don’t say something every time!! If we get an ultrasound next week I will share the pic!!!

@Alex - It took us 11months unprotected to get our daughter, 9 months really tracking and everything. We were really close to going in for help. I know it's not as long as it takes some Moms but it certainly felt like forever at the time. I've got everything crossed for you to get your BFP. I had a friend in a similar situation and they adopted a little boy after trying without success for years and years. A year after their adoption they got pregnant with a little girl. I think it took them 6-7 years to get her. You just never know what will happen and I hope hope hope you get that little one you are dreaming off.

Hey guys, send all the baby dust! I've only had faint lines on opks yesterday and earlier today, but after noticing strong uncomfy ovulation symptoms I decided to test again and got a real positive - I'm ovulating a few days early!

Hi! I have been only reading this forum, but now I ended up posting as well, because I will need people who can help me stay sane for the next couple of weeks (at least). I have been trying for #2 for 5 months. Last time it took 11 months TTC to get pregnant. Now I'm 6 years older (34) and have fibroids - so I assumed it will take longer. BUT today I tested (8-9 DPO) and there is a faint pink line I am happy and also SO scared that AF will still come. I guess I read too much about the higher risk of early loss with fibroids The pic is here: https://www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test-gallery/?u=318778
Agghh and I can't of course tell almost anyone so early, so I'm making DH nervous too.

Nasake oh my goodness! Your words make me smile! Thank you so much. Having in mind that someone in the other end of the word is thinking about my situation makes me so emotional. I believe that this good energy is coming my way if more people than me wishing for it to happen then it will. I know this might not make sense to some but I’m huge believer of this kind of energy and its power!
I really hope your tests to end with two bold pink lines so you won’t have to go to the doc appointment. But if you have to and you’re still afraid you should just talk about it with your doc. You shouldn’t just do something you’re not sure about. Talk about your concerns and why it makes you nervous and I’m sure you’ll be feeling better about it after a chat with a specialist! Hopefully nothing of this will be needed
I’m sorry if you said it before and I don’t remember but where are you from if I can ask?

Shay I’m so happy to see you babe! I’m glad you’re not having morning sickness and if you’re concerned about the weight loss I believe you should call your doc and just ask. Don’t let your self being worried. One week can feel like an eternity. We know that very well lol
Thank you for sharing your bfp story. It’s so encouraging and something very useful to keep in mind!
Can’t wait to see your little baby! Keep us updated!

Flamingo Yes! I hear this kind of stories all around ,e and this is what makes me still hold on to hope! So many couples had a baby through IVF, IUI, adoption etc and shortly after it they got pregnant. I somehow sometimes truly believe that I will be pregnant and other times I laugh at my self.. anyways I just hope for my miracle soon!
Hopefully for you it won’t take this long again. I heard before that after the first baby it’s easier to have a second one but of course this is not always the case! Praying that you fall into the first group

E-massey Yay girl! Go catch that egg

Kannike I see the line on your test too! Hopefully it will keep getting darker and darker! Those next few days I’ll be so agonizing and I send all my positive energy your way for a !

AFM Nothing really! 4dpo here and rolling.. I have 10 days till AF and I’m praying so hard that In few days I’ll start feeling and seeing something different lol Can I just say that I want a baby already? Haha

I havent wrote it, but I'm from Estonia. Thank you Alex, you are amazing and I'm going to send you big bunch of my positive thoughts before going to sleep, it's my time when I think about stuff and about how much I want to get pregnant and be mom, and about stuff I'm thankful for and what I wish for us to come and so on :) I really do believe you will be mom soon, you are too amazing so it's going to happen soon

to all! Can't wait to already see all these positive tests we are all going to get

K+N so happy for happy
@Shay so glad that baby is sticking
@Nasake also fingers crossed for you
@Alex I agree with @Nasake I am holding so strong for you. You so deserve a sweet bfp.
Positive vibes all around for everyone.

AFM sorry for having been away. I went for blood test on Wednesday. BFN. But got confirmed for ovulation with high levels. Today I'm 8 days late. I think that I might have ovulated later than I thought. No more symptoms. Side boobs hurt , boobs are still big , weight gain perhaps. Idk what to think. Although brother s wife who just gave birth 14 months ago , is already preg with twins. All my siblings without exception have inherited the fertility genes from my parents. I think I picked the short straw on that. Took us 4y to conceive our 1st baby. We have been ttc#2 for 19 months now. Trying to stay positive but it s tough.

Same with me, I've got three sisters and they all got pregnant pretty easy with their six babies. One got boy and twins- both pregnancies came thru pills! She had one miscarriage before. Other sister have boy and girl, both took least than year to conceive and she gave the first pregnancy news to me a month after I miscarried and when I told her about our miscarriage, she asked "So what did you do to cause this?" like omg, I was pissed at her for moths. And third sister have a boy, she had sadly miscarriage but got pregnant right after that without new period, and then there's me. In the beginning in my infertility journey it made me sad and pissed that I can't have a baby as easily as they, but later when I wasn't depressed about my miscarriage I pretty much made peace with it, and was really glad they haven't needed to go thru hard stuff. But sometimes I feel like I don't deserve a baby or something, uuuugh, I hate those mean/sad thoughts and emotions what we go thru during infertility That's why lately I'm trying to focus so much to think positive, believe in myself and not to lose hope, even while hard days (a week before AF is like cray-cray for me). My husband is amazing and really supportive, so I'm really blessed with him.

I'm having my fingers crossed for you so much Lalou3ett3 sending you some positive thoughts

Kahlan+NatsMomma what nice big fat positives
