Ok so again... faint bfp. will have to check in the am again cause tonights test was negative. Still have high hopes since I am pretty sure implantation only occurred yesterday morning and the test had set for a while before turning positive. I know this particular test that I use quite well and have never ever ever gotten an evaporation line with it so if that is what happened, then it will be my first time. Good luck ladies!!! Hope to see many bfp's soon! ↑

Hey Bryandi, got my fingers cross for you what cd are you on I'm on cd 20.
If you get a chance could you and the other ladies go to Part 3 I didn't know it was a new thread. I tried to cut and paste but it didn't work.

Krissy, JJ had thought that maybe it was cysts as she had them. I personally felt discomfort and acheyness for about 4 to 5 days around o time last cycle (not this one that I maybe have gotten pg on) and then a couple of good days went by and it came back again. I was using an OPK at that time and got a positive somewhere in the middle of the first spell and then another positive when the discomfort started again. Sometimes your body can rev up like it is ready to release the egg and then nothing happens. When this happens your body could just give up or try again. It could be that your body just tried again. If I were you I would start bding again just to be safe. Another theory is that it could have something to do with implantation. I am on CD 21 and had some aching and discomort yesterday. I think I could have possibly o'd on the 17th or 18th but I don't really know. Everybodies body is different. I would ask your doc what he/she thinks and if your doc isn't concerned then it might not be anything to worry about. ↑

but if it is cysts it is a good idea to have them monitored to be sure they go away. Glad you were finally able to join us again. We went for quite a ride with yaya, but hopefully she is gone now. Good night ladies. ↑

Hi there Ladies, schar- and anyone else that does not know how to work Facebook etc to join the group all you have to do is register for free at facebook dot com (can't do the whole website, because it won't let me lol) and then in the search area to your left once you have your profile up and running type in my name which is Linda Pappas-Milton and my network is "Australia" I will come up in the search then near my name there will be a "add as a friend" button, click that then when that comes up a little area for typing etc comes up with it, just type in your nick name here and that you would like to be invited to the group and i will add you :). Also because it is a "private/secret" group you or no one else will be not be able to see the group on your profile so you may have to go to the "applications" to your left of your profile and there should be an area for groups, click on "see all" then the group "U/P Double Blessings 2008!" should show up. When i invite you to the group you should either get an email saying that i have and you can just follow the link from that or when you log into Facebook next you will see an invite on your homepage once you log in. Phew that was alot to type lol. I hope to see more of you over there, so far we have 11 members and counting :). Double Dust to you all~ Linda :). ↑

Name: schar | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 6:07 AM
I am so scared of having another chem pg I am going to try till at least 12dpo to test I hope all i needed was the b6 I did buy progesterone though ↑
Name: Bryandi | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 6:53 AM
oh ladies. I got a negative this morning. No hint of a line. It is early for me too, but I don't think it is it for me this cycle. bigfamiliesrock, I swear by the Wal-Mart brand. I have never ever had an issue with them before. I will not use any other test. I think I must have had a chemi because I looked at the test again today and it was definately a positive, not just an evap line. So now I have to wait a week for AF. Schar, hopefully the b6 will help you! I called my doc to get my progesterone today (that I no longer need) and it was 120 for 3 months. Without insurance it would have been 260. It is good for a while, so I will hold on to it and use it next time. ↑

linda, I didn't want to tell all you ladies on facebook until i was sure that I was pg. Now I don't have to worry as I am not. Maybe someday. ↑

Name: esmeraldausiahon | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 11:43 AM
hey bryandi i am so sorry about that, but it is still early days, so why not wait, when i was pg with my last, i got a very faint bfp, but when i went to the hospital at 9 weeks, it was still very faint, and the nurse asked me if i really was pg, i said yes, so they send me for ultrasound, and it did confirm, and at 9 weeks you know, so it may just be that your urine was very diluted this morning, and that it didn't show up, so wait a few days and then retest okay, i keep my fingers crossed for you! as for me i started my clomid today, and hopefully this will be my last cycle of ttcing because i am out of clomid, i had to reorder again but hopefully i won't need it, and i ordered it since last week, but i only had 10 pills left, so only could take 100mg, i really wanted to increase it, but hopefully there will be no need to use again after this, good luck all, and bryandi, what is your name on facebook??? thanks for letting me know! Twin dussssssstttttttttttt ↑
Name: Krissy68 | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 5:50 PM
Bryandi - Thanks for responding back to me. I wanted to say I'm sorry on bfn I thought when you said you were testing you were testing opk. dumb me. Not sure if I told you girls but in 03 I had a TR and then I had my 4th daughter in Oct 04 at the age of 36 but anyway I usually get AF like clock work unless I'm pg this time I tested 7 days before and got a bfp I took 5 test cause I just didn't think the test was right. I said this to say maybe just wait a few more days. I know it is hard but you can do it.
I have had cyst before where I was in so much pain I had to go to the ER. I'm feeling everything you describe I must be your twin because what you describe is me to a tee. (smile) Today I'm on cd 21 but can you tell me when I'm officially in the 2 week wait. I will assume that my o date was on cd 18. AF is suppose to show on the 12th.
YaYa is just crazy that is the only way to desribe her and she also a very miserable and bitter woman.

Hi, Im new to the forum. I've been reading the forum for a while now and I have a question. I just got my pills for the first cycle (50mg)...I am REALLY confused as to when to take them. I don't understand what cd3-7 or cd5-9 mean!! Is that days prior to menstrual cycle? After menstrual cycle? I have no idea..please HELP..lol...also, i have twins in both sides of my family..father is an identical twin and other twins from his side...grandmas side has couple of twins as well....does that increase my chances? ↑
Name: LittleLinda | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 7:34 PM
Hi there Anxious4twins- CD means Cycle day, CD1 being the first day of your period, so what CD3-5 means is that they take them on the third day of their cycle to the 5th day of their cycle. I hope that helps :). Hey Ladies if anyone else that is interested that would like to join the "secret" Facebook group i will put up the details again, so far we have 11 members and counting (well i hope) lol. Please add me as a friend frist on Facebook other wise i won't be able to invite you onto the group. My name is Linda Pappas-Milton and my network is Australia, please then either send me a message or type in the friend request who you are on here and that you would like to be invited to the group and i will happily invite you :). The more the merrier :). Double Dust to all~ Linda :). ↑
Name: LittleLinda | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 7:41 PM
I meant CD3-7 not CD3-5 lol, sorry. Anyway Clomid get's taken for 5 day's in your cycle whether it be CD1-5, CD 2-6 or CD 3-7 etc etc. I heard the the earlier you take the Clomid the better chance at getting multiple follicles which help to conceive twins. CD2-6 has a good success rate. I hope this helps :). ↑
Name: Anxious4Twins | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 7:44 PM
so I should take it during CD1-5?...i've read in other forums that taking it that early may increase chances of miscarriages??...umm..oh yeah another question if u don't mind...should i take it more than one month or give it a try the first cycle taken? ↑
Name: LittleLinda | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 8:01 PM
I would take it on CD2-6 as it increases the amount of follies, helps with not drying you your cervical mucus and helps not thin out you uterine lining. Give it a shot this mth and if it you don't get pregnant do it again next mth, just do exceed 6 mth's of taking it, hoefully it won't take to long for you to get preggers though :). ↑
Name: Bryandi | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 8:03 PM
Anxious4twins - Clomid is a hormone, so it will build up in your system over time. It is up to you if you want to wait 2 cycles or not. Often the first cycle you don't get pg anyway as your body is adjusting to the meds, but I have read about a lot of twin moms from clomid got their twins on the first round. HOpe that helps a little. Bigfamiliesrock, omg I completely missed that you were talking about this cycle with the tests!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! The equate test is the only one that matters in my eyes. Have you told your doc yet? Krissy you would be in the 2ww after you have ovulated as most people with normal cycles will have a luteal phase of about 14 days give or take 1 or 2. That means 14 days from the day you ovulated give or take a day will be when AF shows. That is why it is called the 2ww. Thanks esmerelda, I won't give up hope yet. Like I had said before the equate test has never given me an evaporation line before. When I have tested negative, that sucker is negative for like 3 or 4 days before the color completely fades out of it. All three tests I have taken have eventually shown positive. The first positive showed after an hour and my urine was very undiluted (is that a word?). Every other time I have tested my urine has been very clear. I think that to be safe I am going to start my suppositories tonight and maybe that will help my body with the hcg production. Any thoughts on this idea? Twin dust to all! ↑
Name: Anxious4Twins | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 8:10 PM
Thanks a Million LittleLinda & Bryandi!!!....I want to conceive ending July beginning of Agusut so I still have time....I will start taking the clomid in May then...I am surrounded by twins in both family sides and husbands....so I hope it happens, if not I am fine with a singleton as long as the baby is healthy!!!....I was reading the Caution label on the pill bottle and I almost peed laughing at my husbands face when he read.."Caution" May produce Twins Etc....as in possibly more than two...lol....well DOUBLE BABY DUST TO ALL...GOOD LUCK everyone...I will be keeping touch daily to see how you all are doing.... ↑
Name: LittleLinda | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 8:14 PM
Anxious4twins- I meant DON"T exceed 6 mth's of taking the Clomid not DO lol sorry, i hate that you can't go back and edit your posts. Bryandi- I would test again when your urine is nice and dark, try not drinking anything for a few hours and see what happens then, i know when i test with clear pee i get negatives in early pregnancy. Hopefully you are preggers chick, i will keep my fingers crossed for you :). ↑
Name: jenniferjo | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 8:16 PM
Hi, Anxious4Twins, wecome to our group. I've heard that its best to begin clomid either the 2nd day of your period or 3rd(cd2-6 or cd3-7). The 2-6 gets you more folicles, but they aren't as mature(I'm assuming mc or they won't implant is more likely during these days). The 3-7 has less folicles, but they are more mature. I took mine 3-7 and it didn't dry me out very bad. There are alot who really like preseed to help keep you 'moist' and I THINK it helps the sperm get to the egg. I didn't concieve that cycle, but I was only trying to regulate my cycle, pg with twins would've only been a plus. I haven't seen many posts here where ppl have taken it cd 1-5, cd 4-8 or cd 5-9. My doc advised 2-6 for me. Hope that helps. Some of the other ladies have had more experience with it so could help you more. Good luck!! ↑
Name: schar | Date: Apr 1st, 2008 11:54 PM
Hey all it's cd 6 in about 8min anyway and i'm on my last day of clomid and praying all will be ok. Good luck to u all. Bryandi got my fingers crossed for you. Not sure about the progesterone as it should be started 3dpo I think. ↑

Hi again everyone. We've certainly had a bit of excitement in here since I posted... I'm not that sure what it was all about but lets hope she's gone for good now! Congratulations to those with BFP's!! Such great news and I hope you all get double blessings...
Good luck to all those waiting for O or in the TWW!
Our appointment at the bank went ok today so we should have a new (bigger) car very soon and then we can start TTC!! YAY! ↑

I'm so glad I ran into this website....someone to actually talk to who is in my same position!!...Thanks everyone....I have another question that maybe someone has experienced....Since I'm taking clomid no RX my dr is obviously not informed..lol...if i do get pregnant will it show up in my blood tests? ↑

Hi ladies I am not ttc twins but I just wanted to wish you all the best and I hope you all get what you want. I already have 2 kids a 3yr old dd and a 10mth old ds and I think they are a handful enough without being born at the same time, so my hat goes off to you cause I personally don't know if I could handle twins. My 3yr old was walking at 8mths and my 10mth old has been doing it for almost a month & what he can't reach she happily gets for him, they are thick as thieves, lol. I'm kinda hoping #3 will be more of a baby for longer (No I'm not pregnant yet but it could be in the works soon). I read some of the other thread and think it's disgraceful that a grown women (yaya I think) can act like such a child, with all that name calling and swearing, I feel sorry for her cause she’s obviously nothing more than a self loathing coward who feels the need to bring others down to make herself feel better. Ladies IGNORE her, don’t let her or others nastiness dampen any of the happiness you feel about making a new life (or 2). Anyway goodluck to you all and I hope you each get your double bundles of joy. ↑

Girls
I have read all your previous threads and I must say I am shocked. Some of you ladies claim to be xians but you are playing God, choosing this and that and prescribing medication for yourselves. I am not here to offend anyone but I think you women should let God do his work. I keep asking myself, who are you try and tell God what to do? Where is your shame, grown up women doing bs like this. You have ALL been having bad luck, not a single one has had a bfp except Jenniferjo and Lolo200. I looked at their comments, they believe in God, and thus have been blessed. Birth defects, do you think of them? Some of you here are in their 40s and late 30s you ae putting those kids at risk of downs syndrome. This chick called Schar, if you are having epeated chem preggos, give yourself time. Skip 2 months and then ttc again.This way you give your body a chance not to repeat them.You girls keep saying all these things about yaya, but you all forget one simple thing: some of the things she said about Schar not reading advice people give her and thanking people is very true. This yaya might be a bit of a bimbo but she was telling the truth. I do not agree with her name calling and all but she said a few true things. Byandi my god your spellings!! geez!!
The way you are so adamant about using the same tests when someone is trying to help you shall be your downfall. The reason why you are all doing the secret group is coz you know what you are doing is wrong, you have to hide. All of you are arse licking each other, but not even one has a bfp.Try letting God do his work. I am ready for the vitriole. Do you people know what this word means!! Let the crazy replies begin!! schar there are lots of babies awaiting adoption, did you consider it? ↑
