That is very odd indeed, that's a long time. Well I'm sure everythings alright, that would be great if you were pg and the hormone just wasn't showing up yet. Let us know what the doc says. This wait for me until Monday is just killing me! Basically I was told there'e either no baby or 2 babies! A hard pill to swallow either way. If it's no baby I just can't believe I still don't have any signs of miscarrying on my own. I didn't think a body could go this long without "absorbing" or "disposing" of the sac? Also, do you or anyone else know if identical twins share the same sac? We only saw one sac on the u/s and so it's hard for me to believe it's twins??? Very weird. ↑
not sure about the sac .....I called the Dr today and he said come in tomorrow for a preg test......but I just went to the rest room at work and I have started......bummer....... ↑
punkin - sorry to hear about AF! That was a crazy long cycle. Well I went this past Monday for an u/s and there was no baby. The sac was measuring 11 weeks and there was a placenta, just no baby. Just a bad egg I guess (doc chalks it up to my age) I opted for a D&C which I had done yesterday. Dh wants to try for a girl now so I guess I'll be reading up on the whole gender selection thing. It'll definitely be our last so I guess why not try for a girl? Doesn't matter to me, it would be nice for ds to have dd or ds. Good luck with the b-ding this month! I'll probably wait at least a few cycles before ttcing but I'll try to stay in touch! ↑
hey BM5 and Krissy68 thanks for keeping in touch with me ....I was just so hurt over starting I have bee MIA for a while......I have never had to "try" and get pregnant before and it is killing me .....with my DS I was 17 no he wasnt planned and we were not "trying" ........now with DD I had stopped the dep shot 6-7 months eariler and I was told and read it took 12-18 months to "o" again after stopping it WRONG!!!! no trying again ...then with Joshua I was on the PILL again no trying!!!!!! then I have a friend (I guess) that everytime she calls or sees me her first question is "are you pregnant yet?" it is like she is rubbing it in my face ...she is pregnant too so that dont help........actually it makes me want to choke her because she was bleeding a few months back and was told to stay home on bed rest but no she come to work and when I questioned her about putting her baby at risk she replied "it dont matter I am still young (34) I can have more" and this past monday she had to go for a follow up gestational diabetes test because she failed her first.....so I asked her last night how did it go and her response was dont know and dont care......I (being familiar with gest. diabetes) tried to tell her why she should care and all and she said she didnt and would not take anything or watch her diet!!!!! I guess I am more tender hearted because I lost a baby and would give anything to have one growing inside me right now and she has one and dont care.......sorry I needed to vent...........I guess love yalll Shana ↑
punkin01 - I am so sorry that your so called friend is acting this way you have tried to talk to her and she don't want to listen then stop stressing over her and just focus on yourself. Hang in there sweety you will get your BFP soon. Sending you a hug Love you girl. Krissy68 ↑
BM5 I am so sorry for your loss......Sorry I havent responded but I have been busy ....I did leave a response but I didnt read you update until now......take care and write soon so we know you are OK ↑
Punkin thanks. It's hard even though there was never a baby there, for about 10 weeks, it felt like a baby to me. I ended up in the hospital for complications from the D&C. I guess my uterus didn't contract enough to empty out and it became very irritating to my uterus. Very painful. But all is good now, I just went Mon and got the ok to start trying again. He says we don't need to wait the 2-3 cycles that I thought we would have to. He says we're already at risk for blighted ovum, so just go for it. So, hubby was happy to hear about that! Hope all is well with you. I"m so much happier now that I'm hope with the little one instead of working a stressful job. You can never take back this time with our kids. Give my best to your family and let me know how things are going. ↑
BM5.....glad you are doing OK .....we are doing Ok we are leaving tomorrow around lunch time going on vacation.......I have a Dr appt in the morning ....he wanted to check my blood sugars for 6 weeks since high sugars can affect fertility ......I am due to start around the 2nd of August......I am trying not to get my hopes up ....but it may all be in my head....for about 5 days now I have been queesy when I first get up....to the point of dry heaves........I hope he will do a pregnancy test in the morning......and it will be + I will be so happy to tell hubby on our vacation......Kayleigh has a t-shirt that I will let her wear out to dinner or something that says on the front "I have a sceret" and on the back it says "I'mgonna be a big sister".........keep your fingers crossed for us.......Aug 2 will be Joshua's "angelversary" so I may be around or may not......take care and talk to you soon ↑
Punkin-hope your appt went well on 31st and that you and your family had a great vacation. I was reading on your other thread about throwing flowers in Tenn River. I hope you did, it sounded like a wonderful tribute. Happy Angelversary to Joshua! Hubby and I have been bding but no idea where I am in my cycle. Doc said I didn't have to have af before trying but not getting my hopes up. It would be nice to lose a little weight first anyways. Tomorrow I see a school guidance counselor about going back to school to be a child counselor. I've always been in the Accounting field and this last job was just too stressful. I really want to find something that I can do that I can feel good about at the end of the day. Although, taking care of the 7 of us keeps me pretty busy right now. I'm not sure how I did it when I was working? I feel like a maid, nurse, cook, and groundskeeper all in one. But right now I'm loving it. Let me know how your vacation went. My fingers are crossed for your bfp, lots of baby dust!!!! ↑
Hey ladiesd here is a update on me. I am on cd 5 and I decided to do my 3rd round of my treatment plan clomid cd 3-7, estrodoil (estrogene) cd 8-the morning on cd 12, bd cd 10-16 and starting on cd 17 start taking the progesterone gel once a day until either AF come or I get a bfp if I get bfp then keeping taking the meds until I am 10wks. I can do a hpt on cd 27 & 28. Today is my 3rd day of taking the clomid and no s/e but then again I guess my body is use to it by now. I hope everyone have a great weekend. Krissy68 ↑
hey everyone.....well no BFP yet.....and I found out why my Dr wanted me to come in for lab work on cd21 and cd28........so I went in on cd 21 and got the results back to show thyroid problems and I am not ovulating so I went back today to see him and he gave me thyroid meds and Clomid to take with next AF.......so wish me luck Krissy what can I expect on Clomid???? ↑
Hey Punkin-It's good you found out soon about your thyroid and not ovulating rather than enduring months of frustration ttc. Good luck on the clomid- it affects everyone differently, but it can make you emotionally crazy- I mean, I was crying all the time, bithcy all the time, upset all the time, and also hot and dizzy and my ovaries hurt like hell, to the point I had moments I couldnt even walk. But it can be very effective of course - I have 2 boys thanks to it! Keep us all posted on your progress!! ↑

Hi Punkin, I agree, I think it's good that they found the thyroid now, saving you months of frustration. Maybe you'll have twins! I think of you often, and am praying you get your BFP. xo ↑
punkin01 - I am glad you went to the doctor and he was able to find out your problems. Clomid effect everyone different but for me my ovaries starting hurting after the last pill, hot flashes, major headache, moody and it might dry you up. If this happenes then take some robintussin with the guffasian (sorry on the spelling) that will help you with your CM. You could be the lucky one and not have any problems I know for the last 2 cylces of me taking the clomid I haven't had any problems but then I have been taking it forever so I am use to it now. Good Luck to you! What cd are you going to be taking it I took mines at first on 4-8 then I moved to cd 2-6 now for the last 3 cycles I have been on cd 3-7. Keeping my fingers cross that you get your bfp after once cycles.
As for me I am on cd 23 9dpo I did test yesterday and I got a bfn don't know why I tested I was down in the dumps but I am ok. I did get my implantation dip on 7dpo which is the first. Krissy68 ↑
hey guys thanks for responding....i missed yall so much......I have been thinking about the twins and I think It would be kinda neat........Krissy my Dr told me to take it cd2-6......my fingers are crossed for your BFP ↑
punkin01 - I'm so glad you checked in. I have been thinking about you. Thank you for wishing me good luck. I will let you know the results. I did test on cd 22 8dpo and it was a BFN. AF is due on Sep 3. Have you started taking your clomid? Krissy68 ↑
hey guys ....well I took the clomid after AF and on Cd 10 I started testing with OPK's and on cd 14 and 15 (this past sat and sun)had + results and we bd''' several times.....tested this morning with just a faint line so Maybe I ovulated this time....I did have some funny feelings in that area for the last 4-5 days so maybe I did in deed ovualte this time around.......now just in the waiting part ...no fun wanting to pee on something and cant ↑
