Mill You have your bases covered girl! I cannot wait to see this bfp of yours! Do you temp? Any fluctuations to suggest ovulation?

Dragonfly Hopefully your hubby will still want to try in a few days again without pulling out. I really hope this will be a successful cycle for you!

AFM I’m 3dpo today and I just want time to pass...

@Alex. I agree. I hope your two weeks fly by and you caught the egg.

AFM, we are planning out our day on our anniversary on Friday. My aunt says that they can watch the kids so we can go out for supper, which now won't reopen until the next couple weeks. Now if my parents can watch them for the afternoon; found out that they would come over around supper time so there goes our plan of having alone time. Now have to figure out who to watch the kids and what to do for supper. My temping has sucked as I had to go pee overnight and then my thermometre's battery died. Argh lol.

@ Alex I get super anxious when I temp. I've always made myself a nervous wreck while doing it, so I try to skip that and at least cover the bases from positive opk till 2 days after. I did wake up last night super hot, so that is always a good sign I o'd.

Hello ladies!! I wanted to check in!! I am so sorry for those that AF has shown and excited for those in their tww!!

@E I am so sorry that happened to you. To get excited just to crash. I can’t even imagine! Your rainbow is coming soon!!

@alex your strength and courage is so amazing to me!! I am not sure I could ever be as strong as you! I am constantly thinking and praying for you!! You so deserve your little one!!

@lalou glad you are doing well and finishing up the school year. It is rough with distance learning and trying to do your own work too!! You can do it!

@mil I am sorry it has been so rough lately. I get your frustration. It took us almost two years to get our little one. I had no positives the whole time until the right time finally came!! You will get there!!

AFM: I am officially 20 weeks! Half way there!! We had the anatomy scan yesterday which was so fun. Little one didn’t want to cooperate for all the pictures so I do have to go back in a month. Unfortunately because of this virus hubby couldn’t be there with me. It has been hard on him. He feels so left out of everything. He has only been able to go to the very first appointment and now he can’t be at anything. He doesn’t know it yet, but we are having a boy!!! He will be very excited since there are no boys on his side of the family. We are revealing to everyone on Friday, so I just can’t wait!! I am somewhat feeling little one move but nothing strong yet. I miss talking with you ladies!! I am constantly thinking and praying for you all!!

Hope to see lots more positives soon!!! You all deserve it!!

Morning ladies. I hope everyone is doing well. Good luck to those testing soon. So, during the night, I woke up a few times and really having to pee but I didn't want to get up as that will change your BBT and make it inaccurate. I took my temp this morning and it was 98.4. Should I discard it as I woke up too many times? Even yesterday my nipples were sore which is very odd this early in my cycle. I expect to ovulate on Monday. Thoughts anyone?

@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.
