Hey girls! So, this has been a great month for us! 5 BFPs! And, Schar - you need to let us know after you test again. You still got one faint line, and it's only 9 dpo, so early. Good luck girl! I think I'm officially in the 2WW! My temp went up.5 today! I'm so excited just to get this far...O'ing is a feat for me :) So, chart stalkers...you can check it out! And, hoping and Cj - we can all wait together!! Good luck girls. Hoping - I answered your ? on the other board...check it out. ***Sarah - Good luck today hun! We are all pulling for you! ***Fatz - whay don't you ask your doc to come in on Fri, April 4th instead for an u/s. If you have to go back, you always can, but that way you shouldn't miss o! Also, I don't know who is on the same cycle day as you... ***DJ - how's it going? I looked at your chart, and I'm still not sure. Hang in there! To everyone else - good luck with TTC or being pg! And, sammommy - I can't wait to hear all about your two girls when they arrive - they are getting big! Well, take care girls. Oh yeah, my official testing date is 4/11, but I may try to test before then. It's just that because I'm taking that hcg booster on 4/1, I can't test too early or I'll get a false +. Babydust to all :) ↑
Hoping-- I think we're Ovulating at the same time! I thought that I O'd on the 16th, but then yesterday (17th) I had EWCM and and my temp went up .8 this morning. Since this is the first month I've charted with temps, I don't really know what I'm doing. Plus, you know how I got the "sort of +" opk on the 16th? Well, I had one the 17th as well, so I think I actually o'd the 17th. The thing that sucks is that we BD on Sunday too, but able to yesterday because of my DH's work schedule this week. We'll BD tonight and hopfully it won't be too late and that will take care of it if Sunday didn't! Got my fingers crossed for both of us to get BFP's in two weeks! ↑
it is so nice to disappear from this forum and come back to so many BFPs, i hope all months are like this one. Billie and Teddy congrats girls no one deserves it more than you do. as for me, i'm starting a second trimester today, went to see the doctor and the baby was playing, moving legs, arms and head, it was such a nice feeling. kimmer you next :-) if we both believe that its going to happen. ↑
ashgirl and hoping - we all o'ed yesterday - crazy! ANd, just wanted to say thanks Bul! I do believe it! I'm next :) That's aweosme that your little one was playing and moving...it must be amazing! Good luck to all! ↑
One of the answer tests out of 4 is still light pink from yesterday but I tried a few other tests and they were all negative and I thought today was 10 dpo but it is 9dpo cause I ovulated the 16th. so it could be that the answer tests had one that was super sensitive thats why it is still positive or they were just all defective cause I was only 8dpo. So I tried ept walgreens brans the +/- and seen a line that was almost not there so maybe it wasn't I also tried an off brand like the first response
walgreens and it was -. So tomorrow the official 10DPO dummy me I am gonna test.
****Sarah35*** I have to know how things went I am praying for you and your family right now.
**Ash and Kimmer**Wow--this is like an all new record for cycle buddies to actually have multiple people o on the same day--yay!! Now we have 2ww partners like crazy!! **Ash** I have been doing some research and most sites say sperm lives 2-3 days after release, so hopefully we are both okay with Sunday night to Tuesday am surge. That is just over 2 days... I guess we'll find out!! How fun would it be to find out we're all pregnant the same day? What is your test date? **Kimmer** I am probably going to test 10 dpo, so probably next Friday or Saturday (which would be 11 or 12 days depending). Do you count dpo from today on since today was the day of our temp spike? Also, what does like LCM mean on your chart?***DJ** I have been stalking your chart religiously. I wish I knew what to say....how has cm been? and have you kept up with opks and just not been posting that? Hope things are going well!! **Sarah** I am waiting to hear how things have gone at the drs.... been thinking about you a lot today... **Schar** So is the plan to wait a few more days and then test again? Were you on clomid this round? **As for me, I came home and took an OPK this afternoon--it was negative. The only thing I can think of is that my window must have been very small. I tested yesterday around 3:15, negative, This AM around 5:45...positive (and temp spike) and then today around 3:30---negative.... At least DH and I Bd'd this morning and hopefully Sunday's work does the trick, too. 2ww here I go!! Anyway, I have to work tonight, so I probably wont be on until later or tomorrow. I'm gonna try to pop on and see what happened at your drs appt, Sarah. Hope you all have a good night!! ↑
Ok ladies, im back. sorry it took a while to get on, i had to cook something to eat for the fam.. Anyhoo, we got an US and then talked to the doc right after. US shows two Yolk sacks. DOc said this is good news and said babies are looking more like 6weeks then 8 weeks so we should hear a heartbeat next week. he said the sacks are growing as they should and after they see the fetal pole and heartbeats next week (we hope) then i will be more in the clear. But for right now he said everything looks fine-- just smaller then expected but he said that sometimes it can take up to 3 weeks for babies to implant-therefor giving you later BFPs and so forth. So i can breath finally. Im not in the all clear yet, but it definitely looks like there are two babies growing in my belly. i think shock of having twins is setting in. my DH too, asked all the questions he needed to ask to feel comfortable.... and now hes looking excited and nervous. Im so happy that we got good news today. i was really preparing myself for the worst. Doc said there is no way of knowing if they are identical or not until birth..... but if its boy/girl then i will know for sure they arent. anyhow-- thanks everyone for praying and thinking of me today. i know it helped having all you ladies rooting for us. I have another US next tuesday and docs appoint the following day.... so i will hopefully get that reassuring information i need to see two hearts heating.... beating at a good rate. YAH, im thrilled to be feeling more positive about it all. i will catch up later on all the posts.... but i see lots of OVULATION action:-) ↑
Hoping, Ash & Kimmers*** way to go girls. looks like your O days are here:-) welcome to the 2ww:-) Hoping, i would say maybe late tonight or tomorrow earlier would be a great opportunity for one last BD if you havent today-- good work. SCHAR**** you may have beaten my record for most tests taken in one cycle.... this last cycle i took one from 9 dpo on almost every other day...... till i finally got a + on cd32. It sounds like your pregnant to me.... just really early to get a firm pos.. Congrats girl-- as someone mentioned earlier today or yesterday....your like #6 for March. that is amazing. Fatz*** i would say based on my experience.... that you would O on the same day as the lower doseage-- i did. from 50 mgs all the way to 200 mg.... i always O'd about 6 days after my last pill. dont worry girl. just start taking those opks a few days after your last pill and you will be fine. DJ*** ive been chart stalking and havent seen O yet. I do see you have spotting..... only think i can think of is low progesterone BUT that usually happens in the post O phase..... for me anyhow. so i will continue to stalk until told otherwise. ***BILLIE- im happy that you got confirmation of baby being well. thats awesome news. i totally understand that. Jamie** how is the 2ww treating you???? CJ*** sorry your in limbo-- hope you get some action soon. ttcing can be like watching water boil!!! PL*** glad your getting the ms under control. im starting to get a little pukey at night before dinner. helps keep my food intake down. i havent gained anything all month--so im happy about that. **SAMMYS*** im excited to hear now too what your going to have...identical or frat girls. that will leave some excitement for the deliv room:-) OK gals, im off for the night. by the way, my beta were only like 6600 yesterday. but again. doc said as long as they are going up at a steady rate.... and seeing im a little behind on my dates.... things should be fine!! ↑
**Sarah--a cautious congratulations--you deserve it more than I can describe! Good luck next week, and I hope the twins do well. Drs think you are only 6 weeks along? Does that seem to fit with what you already know? **Fatz--sorry to hear about af. Good luck this cycle! **To all who are ovulating (simultaneously and otherwise)--sticky dust to you all! I am still spotting today, am still on what I think of as "light duty" and am bored out of my mind. Hope everything is okay, and that I get more info on Thursday! ↑
Sarah35** I am going to keep praying for you I had a feeling you would be pg I hope I can get a real positive. I was 8dpo with hose tests cause I ovulated the 16th so tomorrow I will test away! good luck to u and me!!!! ↑
hey ladies. sarah that's good news. hopefully everything will look great in 2 weeks and you can let yourself enjoy! i did have a question for the ladies though. my progesterone level went from 16 to 9 so i'm on progesterone cream. and i asked about beta levels, but she said they don't really need to do that. isn't that something i need to know, though? and she said they just directly monitor the little beanie instead of doing betas. i dunno, but i'm terrified. the progesterone cream has worked for tons of women right? i mean i'm sure it has, but i just need to hear it from someone who it has worked for or knows someone it worked for. anyway, that's my update so far. bb's aren't that sore anymore, heartburn like crazy, consipated, and sore stomach every once in a while, but then again i'm quite stressed lately. ↑
*Sarah* That is really good news! I hope for continued good news for you! Congratulations to all of the ovulators! Happy bd'ing! My update.... it's the end of cd 29 and still no af. The spotting started then stopped, then started again, but now I think it stopped again. Ack! I have had 1 neg. test but temps still up. I am so nervous. I have to take at least a month off from trying if I am not preg this month b/c dh has knee surgery scheduled for the same approximate time I would be doing another iui. Please, please, please no af!!! ↑
Morning ladies!! **Sarah** Well I am glad to hear things sound positive. I still can't believe you and DH only BD'd once and now twins! I guess it goes to show once is really all it takes!! Congrats! **Schar** Have you tested again yet? Results? **Jamie**How long are your normal cycles? Are you planning to test again soon? **As for me, cd 16, 2 dpo. Temps high again today, so that's good. Just waiting now. I've decided I will test next Friday or Saturday, 11 or 12 dpo. Ugh---the dreaded 2ww. :-). Have agood day ladies! ↑
**Sarah!** That's awesome news! I'm so excited for you! I'll continue to keep you and your twins in my prayers that they'll grow big and healthy! I has an u/s at 6 wks with my daughter and we didn't see a heartbeat, and of course I was worried, but I went back the following week and there it was! My little beating spot! **Kimmers** and **Hoping** this is so cool! I'm glad to have 2ww buddies! How long have both of you been ttc? We BD last night again, just in case the window of oportunity was still open. I'm not sure when I'll test... depends on if I feel pregnant or not. I've had 3 pregnancies (one baby and two miscarraiges) and I know the signs come on for me well before I can test. So, if I start to feel pregnant (I usually get dizzy spells, nauseated, and bloated feeling pretty early) then I'll test sooner. I'm pretty hopful now that I used the Clomid and have seen that I did O for sure with my temps and the OPK. That's really encouraging... so I'm sure it's just a matter of time! **Schar** that's so early to test... and since a lot of pg tests aren't all that accurate (read the recent Babycenter article... they said only 16% of tests pick up a + before your missed period) then I'm sure you're fine. The fact that you got a line at all is awesome! I bet if you give it a couple days, then you'll get a darker line on more tests...keep us updated! ↑
Hi girls! Congrats on some good news sarah! That's great! And, we'll still keep you in our thoughts through your next appt.! ***Teddy - I would take the progesterone! I do tink it works for lots and lots of people....good luck to you girl! ***jamie - I'm hoping you are #7 for March (I'm counting you schar as a BFP!!!) - good luck to you both! ***hoping and ashgirl - I think I o'ed on Monday, but now I'm confused. I still have EWCM, my cervix is still pretty high, and my temp went down to 97.7 (which is basically the coverline). So, not below...but still, it didn't go up. What do you think? And, everyone else too? Oh yeah, and the other weird thing is that the one follicle I had was on the left...and I felt pain on that side the last couple days, but now I feel some pain on the right... ***DJ - I saw you got a + opk....looks like you are just o'ing late this cycle. Good luck girl! ↑
Hi Ladies... Hope url all well. Been so busy at work havent had a chance to post. A quick question: I started my period on Sunday, I Saw AF sunday and monday, yesterday there was barely nothing and today there is just normal discharing? Im worried. Its the first time my period is like this? Is it the clomid 100mg. i started that on Day2. Today is CD4 ↑
Wow **Kimmer**... I don't know.... but if you still have EWCM then I would keep BDing just in case you didn't O yet. It wouldn't hurt anything! Also, when I read about charting yesterday (I've been trying to catch up on this stuff in a hury) I read that it's normal for some women to have a bit of a dip after they O anyway... not everybody fits the norm. But if I were you, I'd stray on the safe side and just keep BDing! I don't know what the pain on the rt side could be... sorry. Yeah **DJ**!! Looks like you're on your way to the 2ww too! Question for you guys on FF... how do you view each others charts? I've put in all my info for this cycle... but don't know how to share or see other people's info. ↑
**Kimmer** I think as long as your temp is at or above the coverline for 3 days, you count that first jump as your ovulation day. I am not sure about the position of the cervix. I never really figured out how to tell the difference so I don't check that. **DJ** I saw your +opk, too! That's awesome! I really wouldn't be concerned with it being later---this has happened to me two times when I was off clomid for a month--the almost ovulation, + opk, then no temp and then a little bit later, finally the whole thing... get to BDing there girl!! **Ash**How long have you been ttc? How old is your daughter? **Fatz**have you taken a pregnancy test? I am just wondering b/c of Teddy's experience with the whole little light period and then positive test. I would think it would be worth the money to try that first, especially if you've already started clomid.. ya know? Let us know!! **Have a good day ladies! ↑
Hoping********I havent, all ive taken is a OPK test and used Teddys method, if it was positve, then i wud know i was preg.. But it was negative. I didnt have any. Maybe i can get another tom.. ↑
Hi Ladies, well I think i O'ed between last night and this morning. Me and DH got some BDing in last night - just hope it wasn't too late!! **Sarah** thats fantastic news - I'm so pleased for you. Make sure you keep us updated **Fatz** dont want to put a dampner on things, but when I was taking clomid my AF was just like you explained!! **Cycle buddies** whats happening with you? xx ↑
yeah, Fatz, I'm the same way on clomid...really light af. I think it's because it can cause your lining to be thin. But, good luck! And, let us know... Oh, and great cj - you can join us in the 2ww too! ↑
**Hoping** My DD is two years old now. We've been ttc for about about the last year. I don't know if you saw in a previous post, but we were able to get pg again after my DD, but it turned out to be an ectopic. After the surgery where they had to remove my rt tube, we couldn't get pg again and my cycles were all over the place so I saw two OB's and the one I'm seeing now suggested Clomid. I'm all about anything that will help because I think either my cycles were just so out of whack that we weren't BDing at the correct times, or I just wasn't Oing any more. I just hope that when I do get pg again, that it isn't another ectopic. Cool **CJ** another cycle buddy! I guess we'll all be finding out around the same time! ↑
Schar - congrats all right this board is on a roll!! Congrats to all our mommy's to be! Teddy this is so awesome. London I would def. do the trigger & iui for sure. Sammy - I can't believe you are so far ahead I can't wait o hear aobut your little girls.!!! Hoping sounds like you covered it. Sarah - thank god!Jaime - sounding good gir. Fatz - I got very scant periods from clomid? Cj1 - good jub you nailed it! ↑
well, i had my ultrasound this morning. she showed me the sac and everything looked alright. she did see a little bit of hemorrhage though but she said it should be alright. so she got finished and i went to the restroom to clean up and as soon as i sat down i bled and bled and bled and passed pretty much everything. so, i ended up miscarrying today. i'm better then i thought i would be, though because i didn't see a heartbeat and she said the sac was a little small and she thought she should have seen something inside of it by today but couldn't. the important thing to dh and i is that we now know we can do it. if we can ovulate a healthy follicle, we can do this. so my doctor is so pumped about when i finish miscarrying and she's gonna put me back on clomid 150mg and she's determined it's going to stick this time lol. i think i felt worse for my family because my mom and big sister bawled and i hate to upset family like that when they're so happy. i don't mind, though, about all of this. this gives me time to lose a little weight, maybe colour my hair, indulge in my new passion (frozen drinks) and just spoil myself. the only bummer part is i still have the heartburn and the upset tummy. that will pass, though, i know. anyway, that's my update for today lol. sorry it's not a happy one, but these things happen and honestly, dh and i kinda felt something wasn't right. i'm just glad we weren't any further along. oh and for the record, we were 4w3d ^^ ↑
(i posted this on the Promlems ttc board also)....Hey girls..question for ya. I used clomid for my first time this cycle 50mg CD3-7, today is CD13 and RE did an u/s.. i had 1 dominant follicle, 15mm. I got my peak today on my fertility monitor, so im sure i will ovulate tomorrow. What do you think of 15mm?? Is that to small? I was disappointed today, RE was hoping for 18-20mm, but said i still have a good chance. Also, had a 20mm cyst, hopefully that goes away. I was dx w/ unexplained infertility... all tests, cycles, etc are normal. thanks for any input! ↑
**Sarah** that is a very very good news!!!!!! U sure going to see those heart beats next week...definately!!! On the other hand, **Teddy** I'm really really sorry to hear about your MC, it must be terrible when it happened right after ur doc said it seems alright. I hope u & ur dh can get through this together. U r in my prayer. **schar** sorry dear, i didn't quite get what u r saying, r u refering to Teddy or r u saying u have a MC too?? Sorry, I just want to clarify that. ↑
Ladies.. Hi... **SArah** Congrats Girl, i told you not to stress.. It all will all be fine. Im Ok. Cd5 today, Af stopped just a very light brown discharge. **Kimmer** Thanx man ,i think it is clomid. never normally happens to me like this. **PL** So glad to hear you ok... **Teddy** Im so sorry sweetie. I really feel so bad for you. Just be strong, and know that everything happens for a reason. Maybe there was some kinda problem thats y u miscarried. **Schar** from that msg i gather you also miscarried, im so sorry dear. Just be strong. It will happen for all of us sooner than we think. Next month will be a better BFP month.. **Hoping** How you girl? Wher you? **Rowan** Im scheduled for an IUI on the 7 April. i hope all works out. Please pray for me. I hope i will ovulate same as the last time. I bought a few OPK tests to start testing from next Wednesday or so.. Lots of STICKY BABYDUST ALL OVER....................... ↑
I had yet another chemical pg I had a lot of positives yesterday and the day before then at 2pm after I slept for 5 hrs the testes were all negative I do not know whats wrong with me
what can I do I can't afford infertility testing ↑
