| Answer: **Schar** Congrats on the BFP! What did they say at your appt today did they do another u/s? Why were you in the ER anyway? = |
| Answer: Hi everyone! WOW Where is everyone? Today is cd 15, opk still neg. By looking at my temp chart it looks as though I may have O'd on cd 13 but not sure. We did BD on cd 12 and cd 14 so I guess thats good if I did O early. Only time will tell right. I had ewcm yesterday and today which by my pattern means I might not O until cd 18 since I seem to have it four days before O. Weird I know. **Fatz** DH is back on board so we will resume "trying" for this month. YAY. How are you? **Hoping** How are you? **Schar** I really want to hear how your appt went. **Mama4* I guess you are still waiting... how are you though. I've been having hot flashes like crazy. Last month I only had them the five days I took clomid but this month it hasn't gone away. = |
| Answer: OMG Congradulations girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy! See all that stressing and you were preggo lol.. I was starting to think you were having the longest cycle in history...lol... So the meds you took to bring on AF won't harm the baby will it? Girl I am so happy for you. Lots of healthy sticky baby dust girl. I needed to hear a bfp from someone. It seemed like no one was getting one. So what are you wanting a boy or girl?? I know healthy. Oh i am so happy for you. What does DH think??? Are you due in Jan or Feb?? Girl if you ever need some advice about pregnancy or birth let me know. I have given birth to all 4 of my children naturally. I had all sorts of different pregnanies. Well for me cd14 pos very pos opk this afternoon. Called DH home to bd! SO i know we didn't miss it. For some reason though my stomach is a little crampy this evening. I think we bd too much last month. I was like wake up come home whatever every 24-36 hours lol. THis time we have only bding every 36-48 hours. So I am feeling better about this cycle then the last plus clomid is good and in my system. So lets hope Schar has started a trend for Donna, Kimmer, HOPING, Fatz, ME and everyone else. Lots of baby dust girls. Congrats schar! = |
| Answer: schar OMG! i read this post and was like "wait hold on what???" and had to go back and read the last post. press your doc for the beta results fast. it only takes 1 to 2 hours. = |
| Answer: oh yes and CONGRATULATIONS!!! = |
| Answer: **Schar** Congrats!! Let us know how the dr's appt goes! I'm excited for you! **Fatz** When is the next step scheduled? Soon right? **Donna** I wouldn't worry about no + yet.... last time I took clomid days 5-9 and didn't ovulate until cd 19....this time days 5-9 and ovulated cd 16....I think there are so many other factors! GL to you! **Teddy**How are you doing? I'm so glad to hear you stop in and check on us! I feel like we haven't heard from you in a while... **Mama*** Yeah, before DH's low sperm count, we used to BD like every day for 10 days straight... DH used to complain that his winky hurt :). And I'd say, in all sympathy of course, that he needed to take one for the team! :-). Ah the joys of ttc... **As for me ladies, cd 19--question. CD 16 had +OPK . CD 17 temps jumped to indicate surge... CD 18 had weird twinges... decided just for kicks to take OPK.... + again. No temp jump today-- at least not a significant one, still high. Am I 3 dpo or am I 1 dpo? This is confusing!Anyway ladies, hope you have a good day! Thanks Schar for starting the new thread! = |
| Answer: all they told me at the appointment today was my cervix was closed and they ordered lab tests which I just got drawn here at work and I am hoping my hcg has tripled!!! I will find out in a few hours pray for me please! = |
| Answer: hcg is now 283 it has been about 30 hours since my last hcg! It looks good keep praying for me girls and lets see some bfps! = |
| Answer: **Schar** Fantastic news honey. Try to relax I'm positive everything will go great for the next 8 and a bit months for you and your little one!!! Come on girls we need a few more BFP's - June's still not over yet!!! **Fatz** Looks like we CB's again I'm CD7 now - the same as you I think!! **Hoping** How you doing girl? **GL and fistfuls of babydust and sticky stuff to everyone** = |
| Answer: Hey Schar.. Thanks for the new thread.. The other one was getting too long.. Im so happy for you.. I hope we will hear more BFPs real soon.. CJ yeah, we cycle buddies again.. Im CD 7 today.. How you doing?? Are you doing clomid again this month?? Hoping.. Whats up girl.. I have a next scheduled appointment for the 14th July.. 17 Days left.. Cant wait.. I pray all works out for all of us.. Im so tired of this.. At least we know were we heading.. Lets hope and pray for the best.. Mama how you doing?? The bding alot gets a bit hectic for me... Eish im glad im not in that stressed mode again this month about when to bd... Donnam so glad you and DH worked things out.. Al the luck.. How long have you been TTC 4?? = |
| Answer: OMG!!!!!! schar, i didn't know you are! i am so happy for you! congratulations!!!!!!! i knew, i hope the provera hasn't harmed the baby though. as for me cd 26, 5 dpo, and i had a very faint bfp this morning!!!!! i can 't keep alot down also, but af not due until 10 days from now, so please pray for me? schar, rooting for ya girl, when are you due? god bless you, keeping you in my thoughts! = |
| Answer: ok guys a bit nervous here it still kinda hurts when I sit er doc doesn't know why, ob has no idea, and this morning lots of cramping ok for now but my bbt is down from around 99 to 98.1 pray for me girls and I will for u all good luck! = |
| Answer: **Schar** Do you have another drs appt today? Provera may be the cause of these weird temps... so I wouldn't worry about that just yet... I would ask your dr about these things... GL girl!! I'm hoping for you! **Fatz** Why do you not have to worry about BDing? B/c it is IVF month? Shouldn't DH still "go" every other day or so b/c of low sperm count so he can build up his supply? I am just curious how this whole process works..... **Esmarald** Congrats on your BFP! Wow!! 5 dpo is impressive! GL to you! **CJ**What is your next step? I know you and Fatz are cbs... are you moving to IVF too? **As for me, cd 19, 4 dpo. Nothing at all out of the ordinary.... will wait until July 7th to test if AF doesn't show... or at least I"m going to try to wait!! Anyway everyone--Donna, Mama, Teddy, everyone! I hope you have a great day! = |
| Answer: schar, that cramping is probably from your cervix closing. when i had a d&c all my cramping was from my cervix closing back to normal. just make sure they keep monitoring your progesterone to make sure it doesn't dip so you can take supplements if you need to. 19w3d today for me and i just wanna sleeeeep! = |
| Answer: Thanks all!!! The provera didn't hurt anything my temps have been jumping alot 98-99.6 during the day I take crinone gel for progesterone and it costs me 240 dollars for a 9 day supply OMG!!! Well I am trying to find other means of help trying walmarts plan gonna lie about my income though 800 a month for one prescription is sooooo crazy! Well just a bit more cramping had to call off work for a few days it hurts to walk much feels like pain in my cervix like it's swollen my doc said it looks fine just doesn't feel fine my uterus it tipped so that may be why and my cervix is filling with blood or something I just can't bare to lose this baby I did buy some baby clothes today just makes me feel better I guess. My next appointment is Wed. and then on Tues late night a friend of mine in the lab is gonna run another beta. I forgot to say that on my ultrasound my cyst on my right use to 6cm is now 2cm, but a new one on my left is 3.5 they think it's ruptured and on my u/s report it said 1.1cm cyst in culdesac which I guess thats in my uterus I don't know if that can cause a positive hcg or not but my levels were good also would it harm the baby with it being in my uterus hope not good look girls and baby dust to u! = |
| Answer: Hi everyone! **Schar** You are in my prayers. I have been thinking about you all day. just keep us posted. **Hoping** atleast you are hlaf way through for this month, now its just the waiting. **Mama4** How are you? **Teddy** Glad to hear from and I never told you Congratulations on the little girl. As for me its cd16 I got a pos opk today. Thank God I was so afraid I missed it. So good thing we BDed last night and the night before. Well the next few days we'll be BDing like crazy. Well until tomorrow. = |
| Answer: Schar congrats doll, don't worry all will be ok. and welcome to the world of mommies to be. its a nice journey. 26weeks1day for me. = |
| Answer: **Esmerelda** Congratulations on the BFP!!!!!!!! **Hoping** I'm drug free this month again. But I start treatment for IUI on 30th August. Here in the UK we get 3 full goes at it before the next step (if the drugs dont work its not counted as a go). I don't know if IVF is for me - too much pressure!! **Bul** great to hear from you, how you doing? **Sarah** Are you still keeping up with us? How's the treatment going? We miss you xx **Teddy** OMG I can't believe you're that far along already - its gone really quick. **Fatz** How you doing? **Schar** I'm sure you be fine **To anyone I've left out GL and babydust and sticky stuff to you all xx = |
| Answer: Hi everyone - i thought it was time i popped up and said hello. Ive been obsesively reading all the forums with clomid in the title ever since my doc said i'll start on it next cycle. Im very nervous but i was so relieved to hear everyone else's stories. SCHAR - what is happening with you? ESMERELDA - Congratulations on your BFP! And babydust to everyone else :) = |
| Answer: Hello Ladies! Where is everyone? BDing I hope...Its cd 17 for me and I got another pos opk today. YAY thats a good sign so back to BDing. I'm very tender in my lower abdomen right now and its making it painful to BD. I'm guessing thats b/c I'm Oing. I will push on though. Wish me luck girls.**Schar** I hope you are well little mama. **Hoping, Mama, and Fatz** How are you? **Kaz** Welcome. To anyone I missed Babydust to all. = |
| Answer: OMG!!!! My HCG went from 283 to 607 in 40 hours thats more than doubling!!! I AM SO HAPPY!!!!! I have an ultrasound on July 8th!!!! I am not sure how far along I am quite yet so maybe then 5 weeks 2 or 4 days my hcg should be over 10,000 by then good luck girls and baby dust to all of u I think I am due March 5th my 6th anniversary or March 7th! = |

Hoping girl how are you feeling?? Teddy how can you be almost half way there?? Time is flying. Fatz no time at all. I wish you great luck. But I don't like to think that July 14 is that close. My only girl will be 5. That means she starts school and is no longer any kind of baby. Its sad for me. For me it is cd 17 I think I am 3dpo. No symptoms or anything. Just waiting. In one week from today I can test. I am just really anxious. Well lots of sticky baby dust all! = |
| Answer: good luck mama4 If I can get pregnant then u can I got pregnant against all odds I'm sure you will to I will pray for you and I know ir will be soon My hcg yesterday was 607 but I have no pg symptoms thats kinda weird? = |
| Answer: hey all OMG SCHAR! you are due almost the same day as me, i am due march 6th! lots of baby dust to all! krissie how are you? kaz good luck! anyone who i missed lots of baby dust! as for me, cd 28, 7 dpo, i am feeling quite funny though, this morning i felt fine when i went downstairs, then i ate something, and wanted to vomit all out! ( sorry tmi) i managed to lie down ( with 3 kids around it isn't easy to lie down, trust me!) but got some rest, and felt alot better later. i do feel a bit crampy though, i tested again this morning, still very faint though, but just 7dpo, so still have a week! mama4, i know how you feel! my dd (#1) went from junior infants ( first class in primary school) to senior infants! ( second class etc!) when i picked her up yesterday from school, yesterday was the last day you know, i almost cried there! my little baby girl is growing so fast, i can remember the day they put her in my arms for the first time, and look where she is now! anyway i will keep you guys updated, good luck all! = |
| Answer: schar: just wait, girl. they'll get ya lol. and hey if you can hold out a little longer until the 18th, that's mine and my hubby's anniversary ^^ = |
| Answer: Hey ladies I don't have long to I'm literally walking out the door to go to our family river house for the night. I may not be able to post until monday = |
| Answer: well I hav had constipation for a few days and dizziness lots of it also tired this is prob from the progesterone , but today I am getting lower back pain and some cramps mild with bloting and I'm a bit worried about all the cramps/ back pain getting my hcg checked mon or tues just nervous
I am kinda worried about no nause cause I had it beforeand breast pain so we'll see I am not sure about my due date just guessing
= |
| Answer: Hi schar i hope everything is going ok for you and you are feeling a bit better :)
Esmerelda and Mama4 i know how you feel - my son (5) started school this year and i cried so much when i came home alone. thanks again guys i love reeading what happens on here. Keep the BFPs coming!!!!!!!!!!!
ps - esmerelda -what does tmi mean? = |
| Answer: sorry i just realised then when i posted TMI -to much info- im still only catchin up with the lingo - and i read these for ages before i got a log on :)
(no im not a stalker - i just wanted to know everything i could about clomid before i started it) = |
| Answer: thanks everyone for your well wishes I am doing ok think I had cramps cause the new prenatals I was on I will doing another hcg on mon or tues = |
| Answer: cramps are normal as long as there's not red blood along with it. you can have cramps all through your first trimester. it's probably your cervix closing up tight. you'll feel cramping when it does. and the lower back pain is normal and if you're taking progesterone supplements, then that's what it is. i had those exact pains when i was on them. boobie pains came and went and i had more nausea from the progesterone than the morning sickness i think lol. = |
| Answer: no the cramping was from the excess iron in my prenatals that my body had a hard time breaking down and caused me not to be able to go for 4 days I had cramps everywhere they were worse then any period I am taking otc ones there just as good anyway = |
| Answer: I'm hopefully getting my hcg tested tonight pray for me that it goes up I really need this baby to be ok baby dust to u! = |
| Answer: Well seems everyone is doing. Schar girl you are gonna be ok. I am so happy for you. So can I test yet 7 dpo. The digital test says that I have to wait 5 days before AF, but is there is chance I can test earlier? I have 11 days (counting today) til AF is supposed to be here. I am not for sure that I can go another 5 not knowing. My stomach has been really crampy though. So dunno if that means af, clomid, or implantation maybe. Last night It hurt sooooooo bad. Teddy hope you aredoing good. Esmarld what test did you use ?? Donna hope everything is doing well. Fatz only 2 more weeks for you girl! I am so happy to see everything is looking up for everyone. Yesterday at church I found out that Dh is one brother is having a baby, His one sister gave birth this weekend. Then his other sis (which I already knew) is going to have a baby is Jan. Seems everyone is getting pregnant. I just want to be next because that means mine would be the youngest! Well all Take care and let me know how everything goes Schar. Lots of sticky baby dust to all. And Take care of all those beans for the ones that are preggers. = |
| Answer: hey mama4, i used the internet cheapies, i bought them of from ebay.ie, the company is based in the uk, called fertilityplan, they are highly sensitive, 10mlU, but i know many of you don't know that i live in ireland, thats why the times i post are funny times against yours. anyway, i know it was so painfull, but today i tested again, it was bfn :(, i think i must have been evaporationline syndrome, i can look at the lines, and if i look at them still i can see them, but they are like a reflection, or shadow, i don't think that is normal, isn't it? anyway, i know it is still way to early, if everything is correct, i am now 8 or 9 dpo, so i still have until sunday, please pray for me girls, i just want this last baby, then i am finnished, i have had 3 c-sections, so this will be my last pregnancy, i really hoped for twins ( well still hoping!) but i just want a healthy bean right now, best of luck to all of you and good night! ( its 20 past 10 at night here!) = |
| Answer: try first response Mama4 good luck! MY hcg is up to 1850!!!! yah!!! I hope this is it and the baby is gonna stay! Ultrasound July 7th soooo nervous hope we will see a heart beat! = |

| Answer: Schar - Your numbers keep going up and up. I am so happy for you and I can't wait until Monday for the u/s update. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
Fatz - Hey girl well today I am 11dpo and I didn't test today I am going to wait until tomorrow only if my temp go back up yesterday it was 98.97 and today it drop to 98.72. Does this mean anything? AF is due on the 8th and my dr wanted me to do the hpt on cd 27 & 28. I will keep you all posted. Krissy68 = |
| Answer: thanks guys It really sounds like things are going well for us all I hope to see many more bfp's soon Where is kimmer and the other preggo ladies??? = |
| Answer: Hi ladies!! I just got back yesterday (we stayed an extra day) from my family's home on the river. It was so wonderful. I am 3 or 4 dpo. I don't know b/c I really have not been keeping up with temping. DH and I are trying to lessen the pressure, so on a whim we took off to the river with two friends. I needed the break so bad. Tomorrow we're leaving again to visit DH's grandparents 3 hours away. We'll be back on Friday and I don't know if I'll get to post while I'm there or not. **Schar** I was so happy to see your climbing numbers when I signed on today. What a joy. You deserve it. Congrats again. **Krissy** How are you sweety? The drop in temp doesn't really mean anything unless you know your coverline. I use fertilityfriend.com to chart my bbt and it will calculate everything for you including your coverline. However I would not worry about just one temp it means nothing. **Fatz** The days are flying by girl. July is here and just alittle over two weeks wil be your day. I bet BDing is so much better without the pressure. Hope you are well!! **Mama4** Hey girl how are you? I would wait to test. Its so stressful and 80% of women who test early do not get a positive until 2-3 days before AF. **Teddy** How are you little mama? **esmerald** I'm sorry to hear you got a false positive hang in there its unusual to get a pos result that early so there is still plenty of hope for you girl. **Hoping** I miss you girl where are you? **CJ** How are you? **KAZ** welcome, how are you? to everyone else babydust and sticky stuff to all. = |
| Answer: YAI YAI YAI.... BIG BIG CONGRATS TO BOTH Schar & Esmeral!!!! **Schar** very very happy for you, your beta keep going up, is a super good signs!! U might get the symptoms soon, but if you don't, don't complain, thats mean u r one of those lucky women who don have any symptoms :) **Esmeral** I'm sure u will see a BIG + when u do test again :) I'm so happy, 2 BFPs in June, who is going to be next in Jul??? It is going to be one of u girls, so don't give up!! As for me, 22 wks, little girl is doing very well, waiting to go holiday in 2 1/2 wks, can't wait!!! GOOD LUCK LADIES = |
| Answer: hi there ladies, still around **Fatz**, still reading whenever i get the chance. tummy is growing and fast, some clothes don't fit anymore. i wish you all the luck in the world ladies. baby dust to you all. **PL** i so enjoyed doing baby shopping last saturday, everything is just too cute to resist. = |
| Answer: Hey girls! Sorry I haven't been on in a while...been super, super busy at work. I missed a lot - CONGRATS scar and esmeralda!! That's fantastic news! And, rising hcg is an awesome sign. schar - I still don't have very strong pregnancy symptoms...I was really tired, slightly constipated at times, and my breats are still a little sore, but they haven't grown. I'll be 12 weeks on Sat. yay!! I'm getting closer to finishing up my first trimester. :) I still look exactly the same as before...hoping to start kinda popping out a little soon (so I can at least tell). Well, good luck to everyone! This thread is on a roll...who's next? Glad to see everyone is still around - Bul, Pl, teddy... Fatz - how's it going? London - how's ivf treating you? cj, ash, etc. - how are you girls? Everyone take care :) = |
| Answer: Hey Ladies.. How url doing?? Hoping get your butt here girl?? Where are you?? We miss you?? How are the rest fo you.. As for me, im fine thanks.. Just a bit tired.. Cant wait to get home.. . = |
| Answer: Hi Ladies!! Just popped on to say hi and see more BFP and see my old friends. so happy to see more good news. Things are going good here, with me.... i guess, its the way you look at it i guess. Im going through Chemo, 3 rounds total. My oncologist said that next to the little tumor in my cervix some of the blood vessels were showing signs of the 'clear cell', so for safety sake we are doing just 3 rounds to make sure it didnt get into my blood stream and do more damage. On a lighter note (but still somber) i was just at a family party and one of my cousins shows up very pregnant. I was shocked cause usually i hear about these things through the grape vine.... Well, i guess they were keeping it a secret from me because she is pregnant with twins and shes due the same week i would have been in Nov.. So needles to say, i was shocked.... happy for her cause it was through IVF, but still very shocked. I had to try my hardest to fight back the tears when she was telling me. I felt like a total looser sitting there with my big floppy hat cause my hair is falling out. It was a low moment for me for sure.... even through everything ive been through... that was a emotional roller coaster. OK--- i didnt meant to be depressing.... just giving my honest feeling. ON a happy note, im greatfull to have my family and two beautiful healthy rambunctious boys. No matter what life throws at you--- youve got to keep your head up and be greatfull for what youve got. I missed ttc'ing with you all dearly. I still think about you guys often.... and will return to see babies being conceived and born!!! and hello to my old cycle buddies..... hoping and DJ-- where have you been DJ??? And for those of you who mentioned it.... yes, maybe adoption in the future-- but i think we need to get past this hurdle first. 2 kids is a handfull.... just not sure if im ready to stop yet:-) BABY DUST to all and Happy pregnancies to all the BFPers and to all the new babies being born.... know that you are loved cause we tried very hard to get you here!!! = |
| Answer: donnams83 - Hi and thank you for the encouraging words but I think I will be out of the running today is cd 25 12dpo and my temp went from 98.72 to 98.62 and I took another test and it was neg. I do use the fertility friend and I think my coverline is 98.20 does this means anything cause I am so confused. I will keep you updated.
Sarah35 - I am so happy that you stop in to give us a update and I just wanted to tell you that I am still praying for you and your family. Sending you a great big hug. Krissy68 = |
| Answer: Sarah good luck to you I will pray for you and I eally hope things get better for you. Are you going to be able to concieve again? My friends daughter is 10 and she was concieved when her mom was getting chemo for breast cancer by accident. Krissy good luck your temps look good if not this month there is always next month it will happen. Hows it goin FATZ I didn't get a cheri prediction I think I will know after I hear the heart beat which I hope will be monday. = |
| Answer: Hi girls! i know i dont really belong to your forum yet so i will pop back in when i start my next cycle if thats ok? Im going away for a while so expect to hear from me at the end of July! :) I'm wishing you all the best between now and then including baby dust!!!!!!!! If you'd rather me use a different forum just let me know - i understand you guys have been talking for ages and im just butting in a bit here... Kaz = |
| Answer: By the way Sarah - I was so sad to read your story - i dont know you but my heart goes out to you and your family XO = |
| Answer: Hi everyone. Sorry been mia for a while. This ttc stuff is really starting to get me down. **Sarah** It is so good to hear from you. I think of you very often! I'm sure seeing your cousin pregnant was hard-esp due the same week you would have been. You're such a great person and you really are handling this well! Thinking of you sweetie! **Fatz** What's going on girl? **Kaz** Do not be silly-- you are not butting in at all. We have all been ttc for different ranges of time-- some of us, like CJ Fatz and I , are kind of old timers, but we love new additions, and being on clomid at the time is not a pre-req...promise!! :-). Welcome to the forum and please pop in any time! **Mama** Donna** What's new with you all? **Ashgirl**Do you still check on here? How are things with you and being pg? **Kimmer and Schar and Esmerelda and all our other pg girls**Glad to hear thigns are going well! Send some sticky baby dust our way!**As for me, 11 dpo today. Temp dropped this am from 97.9 to 97.6. Kind of confirms af is on the way. I have not tested this cycle... I vowed I wasn't going to test until Monday, which would be when af was officially one day late... so I guess we'll just see what happens. I'm really getting frustrated ladies... with dh's low sperm count we keep getting conflicting advice--some to BD eveyr other day, some to BD every 3 days, some to only BD right at ovulation....

| Answer: hoping try preseed it works, how is everone i'm ok bad back pain though be on l8r = |
| Answer: hey girls, well it wasn't it again for me i guess, i don't know what is going on again, af was not due to show until sunday or monday, i am 11 dpo, and started spotting today, brown, it is quite heavy for implantation i guess, but i don't understand??? cd 32 now, i am so frustrated. it has been 1 year now, 3 kiddo's be4, conceived all of them in less than 3 months. i cried a bit but then again, i am so tired of the whole thing. i am going to give up, i just can't take it anymore, i will try to lose some weight, and then maybe from september will try again. i hope the bleeding stops, but if it isn't i guess i wasn't meant to have 4 kids. sarah35 i am sorry to read your story, i can't immagine how you felt seeing your cousin pregnant with twins, but hopefully the chemo will work out for you, and enjoy the time you have with your boys. my thoughts and prayers are with you. god bless you all, esmeralda = |
| Answer: Hey Ladies.. Sarah so glad to hear from you, we think about you alot.. Pop in more often to keep is posted.. U always in our thots... Kimmer whats up girl?? Hoping whats up girl?? Have Preseed i used it and it worked for me.. Or you can take premarin which is estrogen which helps with CM.. I use to take it from CD 9-16..... or until you ovulate.. Premarin 1.25mg...And dont stress.. Im holding thumbs for you.. Make this work sweetie... I need to hear another BFP... Dont listen too, too many.. BD every other day.. Thats fine..

| Answer: Well hello ladies I am just popping in today to update you all i went in for my ER and she retrived 8 eggs so about 2 hours after me and DH left the clinic we get a call that they will have to so ICSI on all eggs because my DH sample was low so I was upset but today i get a call that all 8 fertilze so instead of doing 3 day we are going to do a 5 day if they are still doing well by tomorrow! I tell you IVF is so stressful so please keep us in prayer I am really hoping that this is it for me and DH its been a long journey. Schar congads on BFP. FAtz how is it going let me know if I can assist you on anything I will update and ET. Sara nice to see that everything is going well. Well babydust to all and I will be back = |
| Answer: Hey guys just did an ultrasound I am about 5 weeks and we seen a 6mm gest sac and yolk that was forming so I am doing well I did the ultrasound early cause back pain . Esmerald I am over weight I don't think it's your weight some people just take longer good luck. Hey FATZ I'm doing good I think your on your way good luck! London I think you may get multiples good luck girlie! = |
| Answer: hey gals i am back, i just went to see my doc, and also the bleeding stopped, it was brown, i dont' know how many times i went to the toilet, but not a drop of blood at all, doc thinks it might be implantation, and told me to come back on monday, to do hcg test, that's the day af i due, so i just can pray now, he said if i am not pg, then they will do some more investigation into why, but he's not eager to, because i had a m/c before, and he said that because of that my gynea might not do anything, untill a year has passed after my last m/c. i just hope that it is implantation, because it is kinda weird to see af arrive 11 dpo, i did have implantation bleeding on my last ds, i was about 8 dpo then, about a week be4 af was due, it is just so difficult because i didn't have regular cycles be4, and schar, great that your u/s went good! i am so happy for you, take care all = |
| Answer: schar - Thanks for the support. Well I took another hpt this morning and just like I knew before taking it was NEG, my temp went down some more it is now at 98.39 I check my cover line and it is 98.20 so I am still above the cover line I guess that is a good thing. I went ahead and got my meds for next cycle the clomid/estrodoil/proceive 8% get (prog gel) that was the only med I didn't take this cycle cause I couldn't afford it. I will give you a update.
Hoping 1 - I totally feel your pain we are in the same boat I am on cd 26, 13 dpo and my temp is now down from 98.62 to 98.39 my cover line is 98.20 so I am still above it but I know if if drop again tomorrow then it is over for me this month and I will just have to face it that AF will be visiting. Hang in there!!!!!
esmeraldausiahon - I'm so sorry that AF is about to show. Do you alwasy have brown blood? Have you taken a hpt yet? I will keep my fingers cross for you. Hang in there
london - Hey girl thanks for updating us and of course I will be saying a prayer for you. How many are you going to put back?
schar - I am glad you got to get your u/s and see your little baby being formed. Take Care
esmeraldausiahon - I'm glad the blood spotting has stop and I will be keeping my fingers cross for you. I can't wait for Monday to get an update from you.
Hey Ladies I want everybody to have a Happy & Safe 4th of July. Krissy68 = |
| Answer: schar: yay! join the fluffy club =P that's why my doc doesn't want me gaining any weight yet. i've lost 2lbs from 2 weeks ago, so i've gained a total of 4lbs in 20 weeks. they said fluffier women don't gain as much as skinnier women. some skinny girl i know gained 86lbs when she was pregnant with her first and a friend of mine gained like 20lbs. we got this! = |
| Answer: I hope I don't gain much I'm trying to eat better good luck teddy! Krissy don't be so down you have next month if you obsess too much it is harder to get pregnant I have been there. One thing I did do the first time I got pg was bd right before bed and kept pillow under me till I woke up four hours later and bingo try that and try to calm dow a bit also preseed helps. This pregnancy I will be honest I did nothing no pills except I took provera to start af don't recommend, but I did everything naturally and had not even looked at an opk in over a week this baby came outta no where and is due on my 6th anniversary It was really when I was least expecting it and I even went straight to the restroom afterwards cause I didn't think I was ovulating but I do know I concieved either june 14-15th. Good luck all Happy 4TH!!! = |
| Answer: Happy 4th everyone! I just got back from a bonfire and cookout with some friends of ours. Its late so I'm not going to write much. *Krissy** Hang in there girl don't stress on it schar is right that doesn't help. **Hoping** I know sweetie last year around this time I was pretty down about ttc I even went to see a therapist but in the end I realized I wake up breathing everyday and I believe now God will give me a child and waiting patiently is my testimony that I have faith in when he wills it to happen. I'm praying for you! *Fatz** Yeah I'm in the 2ww I couldn't even tell you how many dpo I am. I think I am going to wait to test until Wednesday which I think should be 12 dpo. We'll see. This month I've just been trying not to stress being that its summer and there is plenty to do has helped alot. Well girls its off to bed for me. = |
| Answer: schar & donnams83 - thanks for the words of advice. I will keep that in mind. Well AF showed up 4 days early so on cd 28. I will start my 2nd round of my treatment plan. I will update. Krissy68 = |
| Answer: **Krissy** Its weird you said AF showed up 4 days early...Is this your first month on clomid? My first cycle of clomid AF showed up exactly 4 days early = |
| Answer: Hi girls, sorry haven't posted in a while, but have nothing to report - I have been reading every day though!! **Fatz my cycle buddy**, hows it going? **Hoping** Whats news? **Schar** I'm so glad everything is going well for you this time round. **Sarah** You are one very courageous lady who we are all extremely proud of.

| Answer: Hi ladies! Sorry been MIA--on vacation for the 4th... nothing new here... AF showed officially yesterday-so I am now cd 2. I am going to try preseed....where do I get it? I am also taking this month off of clomid. I have been on it for 4-5 months straight now, and I know I should take a month off, so I figure since we can't really know too much more until DH's urologist appt July 25, I might as well make it this month as my month off.... I hope I ovulate on my own! I guess we'll see.... **Krissy** I hope af hasn't shown for you girl! Have you tested yet? How are things? **Donna**Thank you so much for your kind words... that is exactly what I needed to hear. You're right... I need to trust more in God and know that it will happen in His time... How are things with you? **Fatz**What is the next appt for? **Mama**Hows it going? **Hope all our resident pg girls are doing well! Hopefully we'll all be joining you soon! Anyway, have a great day! = |
| Answer: Hoping: Hi.. You csn get Preseed from any chemist, really helps.. But if you not taking clomid you wont need it.. the clomid dries Cervical Mucus.. My appointment is to finally start with the IVF treatment and get all the dates finalized.. i should be starting treatment within a week or so.. I hope if all goes wel.. = |
| Answer: Good Morning! I hope everyone is well. I'm glad to see someone posting after the quiet weekend. Today is cd 27 or 10-11 dpo. AF is due cd 30-32. I don't want to test until Wednesday but this morning I don't what came over me I took an opk and very stupidly used fmu and of course it came out neg. So now I am afraid to test. I've had nausea but thats not uncommon for me just before AF. I haven't had sore boobs yet which normally happens before AF but that doesn't mean I won't. I'm afraid to speculate and pretty sure that I am having no symptoms to lead me to the conclusion that I am indeed pregnant. I'm going to test first thing Wed morning so cross your fingers for me girls. **Mama** How are you/ **Hoping** How are you feelin sweetie, I hope your spirits have picked up, I miss ya. **Schar** Are you feeling preggo yet? **Krissy** Whats going on with you? **Fatz** July is flying by. Your appt is next week already thats crazy. I can't wait to hear you say BFP. GL to everyone = |
| Answer: donnams83 - No this isn't my first time using clomid. I have done 2 cycles (mar/apr) took may off then I started back in jun but it was my first time using estrodoil.
cj1 - thanks for the support how are you doing?
hoping1 - AF showed up at 11pm cd 27 4 days early go figure. On cd 2 I started back taking prenat vits, ba and today cd 3 I added the 50md of clomid. I was able to get all my meds for this cycle and I am going to follow the chart to a T since I didn't do it for the first cycle I didn't have the money to get the progesterone gel. I will keep you upated. Krissy68 = |
| Answer: I don't really have much to report but I am hoping my post generates a few others. I still have no symptoms of AF. cd 28 11-12 dpo. I'm testing tomorrow first thing. Please cross your fingers for me. I'm anxious but I'm also scared...I'm sure everyone can relate I hate seeing the BFN. **Mama** haven't heard from you. How are things when are you testing? **Hoping** Glad to hear from you I hope taking a month off clomid will help. Just like it did with Schar. **Schar, Teddy and Kimmer** How are our preggo girls? **Esmer** Haven't heard from you, how are you? = |
| Answer: well I'm doing good a bit of nausea back pain and constipated but other than that just normal I have an ultrasound tomorrow I'll be around 5 weeks 6 days so hope we see a heartbeat good luck! = |
| Answer: Hi ladies! ****Krissy** So are we only a day apart again? Weird how this works out.. I am cd 3... I think. Ladies, I am really confused. Sunday had some cramping and little af...enough to warrant me putting in tampons, Monday.. barely anything and extremely sore nipples... today, Tuesday, barely anything again and still sore nipples. Any thoughts? **Fatz** I found a website online for preseed and I bought some. Unfortunately, clomid aside, I think cm might be another issue I struggle with anyway, so I figured I might just give it a shot. We'll see... it wasn't too expensive... 17 for 6 packets... anyone know of a better deal for next purchase? *Donna ** Girl, you have patience patience patience! I can't wait to hear about your BFP tomorrow! Is AF late yet? ***Hope the rest of you are doing well! Sticky baby dust to those of us who need it! :-) = |
| Answer: Hell ladies well Saturday Morning I had the ET she transferred 2 8 cell embyros she said they were average>.well I hope this it for me I really am. This weekend I did some lounging but not too much i kept getting up doing stuff I would not sit down I guess it was my nerves. I have had some cramping but just very mild. Fatz its almost time girl you will be ok! Do you go in on cd21 for BW\sono? Thanks Schar I would not mind having twins at this point how are you? = |
| Answer: Well I just started spotting just a very very little bit which means AF is probably going to be here tomorrow or the next day. I read that implantation bleeding only occurs in about 30% of women. So there is a 70% chance that I am not pregnant. Here we go again. = |
| Answer: I did not have implantation bleeding with my first two pregnancies but this time I had one spot of pink and brushed it off cause I thought af was coming but no I think if there is more than just a spot or two then it's af. 2 EMBRYOS UHOH! Twins are very possible good luck and try to lounge around for the first week I hear it helps good
luck! = |
| Answer: Thanks Schar I'm not ruling it out. The spots were almost non existence (If I wasn't trying I wouldn't have even noticed) However I normally spot before so the odds are against me. I'm testing tomorrow morning first thing so I'll be sure to let everyone know. Cross your fingers and say alittle prayer for me.
= |
| Answer: donnams83-Keeping my fingers cross!!!!!!!!!!!!
schar-Can't wait to hear how the u/s went and I hope you get to see the heartbeat.
Hoping1-Yep it seem that way we are a day apart once again. When was or is AF suppose to show? Have you tested yet? Krissy68 = |
| Answer: Hi ladies... well, I tested this am---BFN. I don't understand. I temped this am, and it was higher than avg. Normally my temps are 96.8, 97.1 at the highest during af, this time it was 97.6. Also, my nipples are still sore and af hasn't really made an appearance since her brief showing Sunday. I guess I am cd 4? I dont know... I can only think of 2 things. 1-Sunday was implantation bleeding. but that would be 14 dpo, isn't that too late? or 2-I'm all out of whack b/c DH and I have started exercising regularly..running m,w | | | | | |
