Pregnancy Info HOME

Krissy - I am sorry you have a dork for a doctor. I hate it when they think their opinion is the right one. Good for you for telling him what's what. I am lucky to have a wonderful female doctor who is very supportive. Sounds like they are moving forward with your testing so thats good news. I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

Jojosmom - Any sign of pregnancy yet, you are roughly around cd27 ish right? Sending you lots of baby dust and I will think good thoughs for you. Let us know how things are.

Toothfairy - Sorry about AF, its always so disappointing isn't it? Have you found a new tenant yet? Being a landlord is a tough job, I don't envy you on that one. My Mom did it for 20 years or so and always had trouble. Hang it there on both fronts.

I am on cd12 and FF said I ovulated on cd 8 - I guess I am still regulating my cycles after BCPs. My DH left for hunting on cd7 so we bd'd on cd6 and cd7 so if I really ovulated on cd8 we should be in good shape. You never know :). My temps are not as high as the last couple of months so I am not sure if FF is correct or not, but I did have a thermal shift. I didn't get a chance to try the OPK sticks this month because it came early so I guess I am in the 2ww now.

Good luck to all ladies trying this month and keep us informed.

growingstjc - Hey girlie, how are you doing? Keeping everything cross for you. My doctor isn't normally so rude so i am taking it as he was having a bad day. Like I said earlier I'm not really trying this time around I think I need a break. If it happens I will be in total shock I'm not even bding like I normally would I have so far only bd on cd 8, 13 and 15 so who know and I think I ovulate anywhere between cd 11-13 I will let you know.

Hey all - cd 3 for me. boo - hoo. Oh well. Back to the drawing board. Busy weekend around here its prep for Homecoming for my daughter and 2 basketball games. I'll check back soon though to see how you all are doing. Lots of love ~

Hey ladies!!! I have the worst o pain this month. I hope its a good sign. Still going natural for now. That may change soon. Krissy68- Sometimes its ok to take a break. Its so hard when af shows up and you've tried everything to get pg. So take a break but not too long!! My tenants gave me less than a month and already found another place and are moving out November 1st. They said the house was too small and their kids are failing in the public school system.I think its a bunch of crap. To make matters worst they were and let me stress were my friends!! I'm trying to stay strong but this stress can't be helping me out with ttc. gowingstjc- No haven't found new tenants yet. I have less than 2 weeks to find some. I guess I'll just add that in during my 2ww. Does the BCP'S make you o early or are you an early o'er? Good luck and don't worry about OPK'S. They have never been accurate for me. Stick with temps and cm. jojosmom- Sorry af came but its just another lucky month to try!! Hope your daughter had fun at homecoming. Gosh!! Its been along time since homecoming for me. Oh, to be young again, lol!! Keep me posted ladies!!!

tooth fairy - I'm so sorry that your so called friends did this to you. I hope you find someone real quick to rent it out. What cd are you on? I am on cd 20 7dpo just waiting to see. I didn't take any meds this cycle I only used the opk and did my temp. I will keep you posted. I also had the worst ovulating pains and I had them on both sides. Let me know what's going on with you. Krissy68

Terri- my great aunt was 52 when she gave birth to her last child 10 years ago, so I have gfaith it will happen for you! My great grandmother had 18 kids, 3 sets of fraternals. Are you on any meds at all? My doc put me on Clomid this month even though I have no probelms ovulating, so I'm wondering if I will end up with another set of twins myself:) How long are your cycles usually? Mine are always 27-28 days like clockwork. I just had a tubal reversal done in April, my new husband and I would like one of our own. I have 6 already(crazy, right?!?!?) and I feel so blessed with them. Gabriel is 16, Alexandra is almost 15, Madeleine is 11, Sebastian is almost 7, and my fraternal girls Marie and Evelyn are 5. Long list! Anyway, good luck to you hunny and keep me posted on how it goes when you test. Love all you girls, and I hope we are all showered with babydust!-Tracy

Hey Krissy - you know since you are not trying this month you might be surprised and find yourself pg. A stress free month might just do it for you. Good luck and let us know when you test.

Jojosmom - sorry you are out this month. Sending babydust to you this month. Wow, your weekend must have been exhausting. Sounds like your kids probably had a good one though. Mine was nice and relaxing (no kids yet ). I'm looking forward to the busy weekends.

Toothfairy - Any luck with new tenants yet? I am sorry your "friends" did that to you. It has taken me 44 years to finally learn not to mix friendship and business - the friendship always suffers. I am dealing with a former friend and a leased car in my name right now. NEVER AGAIN will I help someone out like that. Anyway off my soapbox now. I am only 3 months off of BCPs and from what I have read it takes 2-3 months for your cycles to regulate again. Last month I ovulated on cd29 and this month it was cd8. So I hope the next few months go back to my normal cycle of 28 days. Have you tested this month yet??? Let us know.

Tracy - Thank you soooo much for the encouraging words. Everytime I hear a story like those I feel more confident that this will really happen. And it sounds like you come from a very fertile family so you should have no problems. Your family sounds wonderful - the more the merrier I say!!! Congratulations, your very lucky. I just worry that since I have never been pregnant before that waiting till 44 years old will hurt me.

Here's my update - I'm on dpo10 and tested on dpo8 but got a BFN. I am stopping tonight to pick up another test and will test tomorrow morning. I only have 3 cycles charted, but this month my temps are still way above my coverline so maybe that is something??? I will let you all know what the test reads tomorrow.

Take care ladies and babydust to all. Terri

growingstjc - thank you for your update I am keeping everything cross for you and I can't wait to hear about your update tomorrow. Also thank you for your support and it sure does feel good not to stress over your cycle.

Hey ladies here is my little update. Well according to FF I am either 7 or 8 dpo but I am going to go with 8dpo because I know that on cd 13 I ovulated. All I know is that I have been having 29 day cycles so we shall see. Also according to FF I can either test on cd 29 or 30. Also I am starting to notice that my bb are getting real sore and that under my arm pits are real sore and this never happens to me unless I am pg and I am feeling very crampy and I know it is way too early for this to be AF signs what do you all think. Not going to get my hopes up and I will keep you all posted. Krissy68

Krissy - That all sounds like good signs - I will keep my fingers crossed for you too. Looks like we are pretty close this month on our dpo's. Good luck hon!!!!! Terri

Well ladies - my test was a BFN this morning but I am still hopeful because usually when AF is coming my temps start to drop around dpo8 and here I am at dpo11 and they are still really high. I have absolutely no symptoms though, except a little crankiness - which could be PMS. Anyway, I am still in it this month. I will try to wait till Saturday morning to test again. Good thing I found those dollar store tests so I am not spending a lot of money, but that just lets me test more ;) Have great days and lots of babydust!!!

growingstjc - Thank you for the support. I just wanted to ask you what cd and dpo are you on? When is AF due? Do you think I can use the opk as a hpt? My temp went up from yesterday 98.62 to 98.67 and I still have 7 more days before I can test this is going to be the longest 7 days. Also my bb and under my arm pits are still sore and I am still crampy. I am on cd 22 and either 8 or 9 dpo. Krissy68

Krissy - Hey Girl! I am on dpo12 today and cd20. AF is due Saturday. So far so good for me except my temp dropped a little this morning. I think I will test again tomorrow.

What about you? Did you decide to test yet or hanging tough till your test date? Those signs sound promising. Sorry, but I do not know if you can use the OPKs as a HPT or not. I am sure some wiser lady will answer your question soon.

Let us know if you decide to test early, you will be in my thoughts and I'm sending lots of good baby vibes your way. Terri

growingstjc - How are you doing? Well I broke down and tested using my opk as a hpt and I got a BFP then I found a $1 store brand and tested with that one and it was very very light positive. I did use another opk with my fmu and I got another BFP. I didn't take a hpt because I don't have any more so I will pick some up on Friday. I'm currently cd 23 and 9 or 10dpo and my temp drop big time from 98.67 to 98.26 so I am hoping this is my implantation dip so please keep fingers cross that my temp go back up tomorrow. I will keep you posted. Krissy68

Krissy - How are you doing? Did you get a BFP yet? I have been thinking about you all weekend.

Well all I am out this month again, AF showed this morning.

Does anyone have any good news?

Jojosmom, Tracy and Tooth Fairy - Hope you are all doing well and keep us informed of how your cycle is doing.

Take care, Terri

growingstjc - I'm so sorry that AF showed up. Hopefully November will be your month. Sending you a hug. I'm doing okay I still haven't tested yet I think I am just scared. I can officially test on Wednesday which is Oct 29 and my cycles are normally 29-30 days long. My temp is all over the place on Sat cd 25 12dpo my temp drop all the way to 98.20 then on Sun cd 26 13dpo my temp went up to 98.46 and then today which cd 27 14dpo my temp went really high to 98.97 now in the pass my temp would start dropping when AF is getting close. I am having mixed emotion on when to test I might test tomorrow if temp is still high but if it drop way down then I will have my answer. If AF do show up that's okay too because my doctor said I could have a HSG when my new cycle start. I will keep you updated. Krissy68

Hey Krissy - any news??
