@E I so sorry mama. I love the name Jo. They are heaven cheering you on. Pray that you will get that rainbow baby soon.

@mil I am very excited for you. I have all fingers crossed for you.

@Draginfly for you too. With husband cooperation.

@Alex yes you are really strong. You keep going no matter what. I am staying optimistic for you too. Currently ,I don t go out shopping anymore. Toddler and I stay at home. People are forgetting about all the rules.

@Shay so nice to hear from you. Congratulations on your boy. Next time, maybe Skype live with husband so he can see everything. I did that for 7w ultrasound. 20 weeks wow. Halfway there.

@Luana hopefully this cycle will be yours as well.

AFM Nothing much to say. Still looking for a new job. Still teaching . Still really tired but morning sickness is like a wave. Some days I have it so rough I barely. Others days it is manageable. I take ginger ale and some ginger tea. They help a bit. Family is really supportive. 1st trimester full checkup will be in 4weeks. I am getting super excited to see and hear baby again. I talk to her everyday. I think it s agirl but I could be wrong :-).

@lalou. Thanks girl. I had a feeling with my first that it was a girl as I dreamt of her. Then I dreamt of my son which came true. Next dream, I was having twins. I never had any morning sickness with either of my pregnancies. See, I can't take sleeping pills to help me to sleep at night as I get really bad restless legs. So I take half a gravol every night as it seems to help me to sleep. So, that could be a possibility of why I never got morning sickness.

AFM. I don't know if I should be pissed or sad. I'm a little of both. Hubby tells me he's back on the fence about having a third one now; WTF. His complaint is that he will be 63 this Fall and with his hip and all that he can't jump up like he used to. Just told him that I can either go on the pill, use protection or the last resort is to get my tubes tied. Why would he lead me on like this and then order cream on top of that when he asked me when my shipment should be in. I'm at a loss for words.

Hi Ladies, Has anyone of you guys ever done a hysteroscopy to remove intrauterine adhesions before? If yes, how was the post op?

Well, on CD24 and my average is 25, but my last few cycles have been 23 23 22. I was super irritated at work yesterday and this morning my bf woke me up at 3:30 tossing about and I couldn't go back to sleep. No IB or anything suggesting I caught this one. I hate that I want it so bad but have to mentally set myself up to be disappointed. AF is expected any day now.

I DID notice yesterday that I have a sore spot on my boob on the left side near my sternum. Is that even normal? I want to test, but I don't want to test. Lol

Hi ladies- sorry- I’m pretty behind on everyone here.
E- I’m so sorry for your loss! My heart hurts for you.
Dragonfly- sorry your hubby is back on the fence. Do your best to keep the communication lines open with him. Let him know why you want another so bad. It was hard for me- I’m not a communicator- but when I shared my feelings and told him how incomplete I felt without that last baby- he came around. His fears were valid- financial and being outnumbered- but we talked about all of it- and he decided he does want another. I really hope your husband does the same!

AFM-
CD7. I usually O around CD19- so another week before I even hit my fertile window. Hubby has been lifting weights- and his stamina and drive are improving! Hopefully it’s having a positive impact on his sperm quality, too! I’ve been staying more active as well- so hoping my eggs and uterus are nice and healthy, too.

Good luck to everyone trying to catch that egg, and everyone in or nearing their testing window! Hoping to see lots of BFP’s in the coming weeks!

Thank you all for your kind words! Glad you like the name @Lalou - we used a gender neutral nickname since we can't know whether it was a boy or a girl, just like the first (who we called Phil.) I've been keeping busy and trying not to be too down about it. The day AF arrived I went out and helped my husband varnishing our table and chairs, and I've tended that table every day since. It's beautiful, and I can't wait to use it once the poly cures! I'm throwing myself into our home improvements and working on taking care of myself better. I was able to talk to my priest too and that was very helpful. I tested today to make sure that everything had gone smoothly and there were no funky hormones left over, and got a nice stark negative - so this cycle is looking pretty good. I've heard that your chances of conception immediately after an early miscarriage are actually pretty good, so we'll see just how soon this rainbow appears! Test progression pic attached. Not included are 2 frer taken with incredibly diluted urine at odd times of the day, and of course the digital test from. 12dpo which has gone blank now.

Lalou it will be so great to have a girl so your boy can have a baby sister! I have an older brother and I couldn’t be more grateful. I always feel like I have someone to take care of me that is also close in age to me so he can understand me more easily!

Dragonfly I’m so sorry girl about hubby is having second thoughts again. This must be so nerve racking for you. Hopefully he’ll change his mind soon. Maybe you should tell him how difficult it is for you and your physiology to make you hope and then take it away. I’m sure you guys will figure this out!

Luana I’m sorry never done it so I cannot give any help! But I’m sure if you make a board here on the forum about it, there will be definitely some helpful answers.

Punk if you can hold and not test it will save you so much emotional ups and downs since before missed AF it could give you a false negative. I would suggest to wait it out if you have the power! Having everything crossed for you!

K+Nmomma happy to see that both you and your hubby are staying active and healthy! Good luck on this cycle! Hopefully you have your bfp!

E I’m glad to see that you’re back and you’re optimistic! I’ve seen too many ladies after a miscarriage getting pregnant right away and hopefully this will be the case for you too!!

AFM I’m 6dpo and still nothing out of my ordinary. Just hoping as usual...

Punk sorry you didn’t get any lines girl! Hopefully AF will stay away and you’ll get a late positive!

As I mentioned before I’m a very strong believer in energy and in the power of our mind. I also believe that if you pay close attention there are signs all around us. I don’t know if anyone else here is like this or you just think I’m crazy but in my entire life I never got wrong by reading signs. So whenever I want an answer I say for example if so and so is to happen I will see (lets say) a blue butterfly in X period of time.. and it might appear in a picture, I may hear a song naming it or maybe I read about one in a book or a magazine.. If I don’t see or hear, read etc any blue butterflies then what I asked for is not going to happen. Most of the times is so accurate that I cannot even believe how some things can appear to you. I usually ask for things that is very rare to stumble upon because let’s be honest if I ask to see a car is more likely to see it since it’s very common in our everyday life.
What I’m trying to say lol is that signs are not good for me this cycle I asked silently to see Borat if I’m pregnant or Mr Bean if I’m not ( I know this is so ridiculous but hey it works for me) well guess what? I’m freaking seeing Mr Bean E.V.E.R.Y.W.H.E.R.E I mean I don’t think I ever seen Mr Bean so often in my life lol
I know... I know... at least I hope I made you guys laugh

AF hasn't struck YET. My Flo app keeps changing and saying ' your period may start today' but I suppose it is definitely tomorrow? I don't know. I was feeling a bit emotional last night over something I wouldn't normally cry about. I didn't cry, but I was close to it. It's weird though. Holding off on testing again until my app says 'you're late'. Still been on a sugar binge and napped 3 hrs yesterday, but it doesn't feel like PG fatigue. Nips were itchy yesterday too. But otherwise, I'm just chilling. No back pain, no cramps. Just feeling ridiculously NORMAL. So I'm just enjoying a cup of tea (in my new mug) on the patio and I think I'll ask for my own sign. Maybe I'll get my faerie tarot deck and see what comes up. Thank you Alex!
