BYOB: Bring on the BFPs!!
Hi all!
I have been on this site for what feels like forever (2yrs+) The BYOB threads have always been a great place for ladies to come for ttc support, answers, suggestions & even venting our frustrations! We used to have a hard time keeping up with all the chatter & made some great friens on here! I would love for it to be that again!
Former BYOB ladies & all newcomers welcome to join us! Cant wait to chat with you all!!
I aill start things off with an intro...
My name is Joy
I am 29 (30 in May) & dh is 30
I'm Canadian
Was married in 2009
I started ttc in April 2010
Got my 1st bfp in August 2010 & m/c'd naturally at 8 weeks
Got my 2nd bfp in late June 2011 & had a missed m/c at 11 weeks (baby died at 8)
Many complications followed - including a nearly 3 week hospital stay
Got my 3rd bfp on March 21st 2012 - finally success!Delivered my beautiful baby boy on Dec 4th

Hey guys,
I haven't been around as much because I feel so discouraged about not Oing yet this cycle. (Currently CD34)
I really hoped that my body would get its act together in time for a 2 year age difference. That isn't happening. :(
Soooo yeah. I really need to focus on the good. I have special time with my little guy and he won't nurse forever. I should cherish it while it lasts. I don't want to look back with regret that I weaned him before he was ready because of my own wants. It's just really hard when I know that any OB/GYN would tell me to wean if I want to get pregnant. It's more complicated than that. Feeling feelings. :-/
Happy late bday to Joy!
How is everyone doing?

organisedchaos - hopefully soon things start getting back to normal for not in the fertility department :-)
Afm 9dpo nausea and sore boobs as per usual will have both til about 12-13dpo then af should arrive on Saturday. Been a typical clomid cycle for me the only difference has been the cramp/pressure pains which have been here five days now.
I hope youre al doing well!

Hi ladies!
Sorry I tried to respond yesterday, but wrote my reply and before I could sent my computer froze.... grrr, so I just gave up!!
Elle - Really hoping your af cramping/pressure is a good sign! I had that before finding out I was pg with ds! :D Fingers crossed!!
OrganizedChaos - Sorry to hear you still havent O'd at cd34! Thats crazy, but no reason to assume you wont o at all... have you been testing every day or how do you know? Any sign of af coming?
AFM - Still unknown as to what is going on with my cycle. Hoping I did O and that af will show at a more normal time this cycle... but not holding my breath!
Hope everyone is doing well!

tested 10dpo with a 10miu test and I feel a little defeated right now looks like 9 cycles of Clomid aren't enough
I just don't get it I have ovulated well every cycle and we have had sex at the right times why haven't I got pregnant yet?
We had my tubes and his sperm tested so I honestly have no idea what's going on.
My specialist told me today I can take a break if I like and I see her again in September I dunno what to do. I obviously want to keep trying but it's just not working!
Sorry guys just on a downer I should have just waited for

Hi ladies!
Elle - I am so sorry sweetie :( Seeing a bfn always sucks, but maybe it was just to early... fingers crossed for you. So sorry your feeling so down with all this ttc, I really do hope it happens soon for you! xx
m2b3 - Sorry to hear af came and is being so evil :( Good luck this cycle!
AFM - Been a crazy week... our old beater of a car started to die (still ran but was becoming death by a million paper cuts) so today we bought a new minivan :) So excited to have a vehicle that can fit dh, myself, da & our dog as well as having plenty of room for when we expand our family <3
Hope everyone is doing well!

Ladies I need so help or advise
I starting temping this morning. first time I have ever done this and I am a little scared. My basal temp was 34.4 C (93.92 F). I an not even sure how I am walking around. I checked again after I was up and about and it was 34.9 C (94.82 F), what the hell is wrong with me. That number isn't even on my print out chart I have to record it. It starts at 97.0 F.
I was at my sons baseball game last night til 10;30pm and it was raining and absolutely freezing. like toes were numb and hands hurt freezing. everyone was wrapped in converters to keep warm. I went straight to bed when I got home. Could this be the reason my temp was so low? I am going to check it again when I get home to see where I am at at the end of the day.
any suggestions of advise would be greatly appreciated as I am a little frightened there may be something wrong with me.

mommatobeof3 - are you due your period soon? mine is due tomorrow and my temperature is only 35° maybe it's something to do with that? Not really sure as I don't often take my temperature ha ha
afm 13dpo and my period will probably arrive tonight or tomorrow. I have my next lot of Clomid ready and folic acid. Not using opks now as I have found the last 9 cycles I have always ovd on cd 16-18
