jojosmom - September 4

I hope you all don't mind me starting a part II but this new format makes it weird to find the newest posts. Sorry I've been MIA - we went on two vacations back to back and just returned on Tuesday evening. Yesterday was my dd's first day of high school. I can't believe I have a daughter in high school. So things have been really busy but its started to calm down now and I can get back online and check in with all of you. First off - congrats to little angelz on your bfp. How are you feelilng? Welcome to our newcombers tuesdaypm and gowingstjc - I think OPK's can be helpful especially if you're unsure if you're ovulating or not. Its nice to see that positive when you're working so hard to make this happen. As for me I'm on cd 16. Since we've been on vacation I didn't do any opk's so we just bd'd every other day. We'll see how it goes. Hello to toothfairy, MaribelsHope and Krissy - I hope all is going well and lets catch up ~

Hello Jojo...hope you're doing good chickie. Hey...hopefully you'll have your BFP this time. Vacation can sometimes do it!!! You know how many friends I have that had gone on vacation and came back pregnant!! Well as for me...I'm on cd4 and still waiting for my doctor to tell me if its ok to try this month. I doing pretty good with the last nerve block I got last Monday, but its up to him. I have to tell you that regardless of what he tells me.....I'm going to do Funky Tango with hubby!! Enough of the diet!! I'll probably end up with a bad back again (chuckle)!! Well its always nice seeing you!! Take care and lots of love and hugs for you!!

Thanks for the warm welcome. I have also heard of alot of ladies getting pregnant on their vacations - so good luck there. My husband and I have only been TTC for 2 months, but because of my age I worry that it won't happen. I am on cd12 and waiting to ovulate. I just started using OPKs a few days ago so I hope that will help us get the timing right. Thanks for listening, it really helps so much. And good luck to all the ladies trying this month.

jojosmom - Thank you for starting a new thread. Hey girlie how was the vacations? My third daughter started high school back in Aug and she is a cheerleader for JV and she cheered her first game yesterday and now she wants to quit I think she was just nervous I told her don't worry about just keep trying and keep your head up. tooth fairy - Hi and thanks for checking in on me. I am okay I had my cry and now onto a new cycle. I have decided to do clomid again just like the doctor said. I have already tried the natural approach for a year straight before doing the clomid. I will keep you updated. growingstjc - Welcome to the group and congrats on your marriage. I would buy the opk to help you figure out when you will be ovulating it has help me out a great deal.

Hi all - I'm sorry I wasn't on for a few days. The motherboard went out on my computer and we had to buy a new computer system. Yuck. Anyway I just got everything up and running. Here's my update, cd 22. No signs, no symptoms. Who knows??? I hope you're all doing well and I'll check back soon.

 

gowingstjc - September 11

Hi Ladies, JOJOSMOM - good luck to you and lots of baby dust to get a BFP. TOOTHFAIRY - Any news yet????? I look forward to logging on to find out if any of you has any good news to report. I am on CD18 and have had all neg OPKs so far this month as well as my temps staying low. It is only my second month off of BCP so I figured my body is still trying to regulate its cycles. I just hope I am still ovulating at all. DH and I have been BDing lots just in case I get a pos OPK. We'll see! Gook luck to all of you and flinging lots of baby dust!!

 

tooth fairy - September 11

Hey ladies!!! Krissy68 and gowingstjc-Well the b___h af came. I cried in my dh's arms. I don't know why I cried or why I thought I might be pg but I guess I was just hoping. I think I'm going to get more test done and see where I'm going next. Its just so sad. May have to go back to meds. Maybe even give up. I have a lot of thinking to do.Good luck ladies!!!!

 

Krissy68 - September 11

jojosmom - Keeping my fingers cross that you get your BFP./tooth fairy - I am so sorry that she found you I just can't stand her. Hang in there and take a few minutes to yourself and re-evaluate that is what I am doing? I am taking the estrogene right now and I guess I will start using my opk test strip on cd 12 and that is about it. I am not checking my cp or cm because I can never figure it out anyway. Sending you a hug. Krissy68

 

jojosmom - September 11

Hi all - thanks for the well wishes. I am cd 23 and still nothing...no symptoms either way. I don't want to get any hopes up. I hate feeling so let down. Sometimes I want this so badly then other times I don't know what I'll do if it happens. I'll have a lot on my plate. But in a few years when dd is in college ds won't have anyone to grow up with. I want him to have siblings to grow up with and be close to when he's grown. Does that make sense? growing- any positives yet? what brand are you using? I didn't use any this month but I usually use the clearblue kind with the smiley face. They are so easy to use and read but the are really expensive. Does anyone know where the cheapest place to find them is? Krissy - what cd are you? TOOTHFAIRY - I'm so sorry about getting your af. I hate that day so much. My heart always aches so much when that happens and nobody seems to understand the devastation when it happens month after month. I'm sending you a hug through the internet as we speak. Hello's to Maribel and anybody else out there. I hope to hear from you all soon.

 

Krissy68 - September 12

jojosmom - cd 11 and I will start using my opk test tomorrow I buy the internet cheapie. Everyone have a great weekend! Krissy68

 

gowingstjc - September 12

Hi ladies - Toothfairy - I' m so sorry that she reared her ugly head and I know how hard it is for you. Don't lose hope, it will happen. Jojosmom - I am crossing everything that can be crossed for you!!!! Keep us informed. I am using First Response OPKs and am on cd19 with no positive yet so I will keep testing. I will have to buy a new box soon though. Well I am off camping in the rain, have good weekends everyone!

 

jojosmom - September 13

Hi all - just wanted to post real quick. I think I'm out for the month. I was just starting to get my hopes up at cd25 and no spotting but I think I just got my first tinge of spotting. I'm really bummed about this. What to do next? dh does not want to push any testing so I guess i just keep trying. I wish this was the month for me.

 

Krissy68 - September 15

growingstjc - Did you get your BFP on your opk? I hope so. I got mines on cd 12 & 13 and I have been bding away. Keeping my fingers cross for you. How was camping? jojosmom - Did AF show up? I hope not. Please let u know and hang in there I know it is easier said then done. DH don't want to do any testing on hisself but I will test myself but so far everthing for me have checked out if I don't get pg this time I will be making a dr appointment and asking him for a hsg and go from there. Sending you a hug. Krissy68

 

gowingstjc - September 16

Krissy - No bfp on the opk for me yet, I'm on cd23 today. But been having fun bding all month. Camping was very wet - rained all weekend and I was glad to get home and be dry. Let us know if you have any news this cycle. And I am curious about the testing you might have done - so please tell when it happens. Jojosmom - sorry to hear you might be out, hang tough - it will happen for all of us!!!! Take care ladies
