Omg Robin I am shocked??!!! You clearly had a line (with colour) in both tests and frers aren't known for false positives. Maybe the lab somehow stuffed up? Can you get your hands on a new test (not one from the same box) and test again? This just doesn't add up!

Mummy - thanks for sharing about your experience with prolapse.. Yea it's SO depressing! Mine is a cystocele mainly - he said I had a slight rectocycle but mainly it's the bladder that's the issue. He did recommend physical therapy so I'm going to look into that. Doing kegels and other pelvic floor exercises with the hope that they'll at least make things feel a little better. Bleck... This has not been a great past month for me, reproductive/female anatomy-wise!!

Pinkmama stop reading!!! Your numbers have doubled so at this stage the pregnancy is viable. Are they getting you in for more bloods to follow up? Not all pregnancies follow the same path, some are quick growing, some are slow growing. What's next did your doc/ob say?

My ob told my is not likely it will continue growing, and that he's almost sure I will mc sooner or later. He even told me about some studies that link low hcg at the beginning of pregnancy and mc, so I'm out of luck again... I'm literally waiting to mc. It's awful. It will be my second mc in less than 3 months.
I will have bw done on Saturday again. But he told me not to get my hopes up because the number doubled. I locked myself in the bathroom to cry, but I couldn't even do that because I had to go to a birthday party. So depressing.

I know!!! I'm totally changing my ob for another one, since my last mc he's been acting like such a prick. TBH, he told me all that kindly, like I wouldn't want you to get your hopes up because I'm taking care of you, but I need to be honest. But I have a consult with a new OB on Tuesday. I don't want to see him anymore. I guess either way is just a waiting game... I've read a lot in the internet and all the experiences I've seen with low numbers end up in mc. I know I shouldn't be reading!!!!!! But if you haven't read my posts from when I did HT, I went through a similar situation, having to get bw done and praying my betas were good. I'm just tired pnb. Nobody said it would be easy, right?

Pinkmama - I'm sooooo picky in my choice of obygyn - both when pregnant and not pregnant!! If I don't feel very comfortable & trust the doc completely I will change. So I'd say if you're not happy with your current one definitely try to find one you like better!! It's such an important doctor, especially during a pregnancy.

BFN, temps dropped yesterday. Waiting for CD1, which should be tonight or tomorrow. Thinking about making an appointment to have some tests done. DH is going to be gone for 3-4 months, so its looking like we won't have a shot for a while, then it's pretty much back to square one. I'm really bummed. My midwife takes a 2 month break in July/August, so if I get pregnant this next cycle, I have to find someone else. So I'm not sure I want to try, but I hate the idea of missing out on a possible pregnancy for that. I don't have a lot of options for HBAC in this area.

Oh Samish, I'm sorry it wasn't what you expected. Early pregnancy is such a stress. What did your obgyn said about the dates? Is it possible you miscalculated your O? Good news about the sac and yolk sac!

I agree that the yolk sac is a good sign. When I had my mc last year, there was nothing in the sac it was empty. The dr said if there was something there would be a chance. But sadly I mc'd a few weeks after the ultrasound. I hope everything works out for you!

Update on me:
I thought AF was coming soon so I could start ttc next cycle since i had all the pre-period symptoms (sore breasts, light cramps, bloating). I have never had these before or during O so it is so weird. I am worried since my cycle keeps getting longer. I dont know what is going on. I am not sure BCP messed up my cycle so bad or the prenatal vitamins caused it. Not sure what i could do to make my cycle shorter naturally?

We bd unprotected on CD34. FF showed crosshair om CD32. I hope ff is correct and my O day was not a day or two later, else i only had 1 attempt and that is not good at all for my blue swat

Pbn: i dont know if doc/ob would do anything avout it tbh. I went to see a doctor before since my cycles are so irregular and long. She told me that as i age (i am 26), my cycles will act differently than when i was 18 and there is nothing strange about it. And they said i could come back if i dont get pregnant AFTER a year ttc. Since i am also pretty new at this, i am not so sure what i need to do or ask for [emoji21] this is so frustrating

She said it happens Sometimes and I should catchup later in my pregnancy. She asked me not to lose hope.

I don't know how to not think about this all and how should i keep myself relax. I still have no symptoms of pregnancy :( no nausea no morning sickness Nothing except dizziness ( that must be due to stress)

Hi! I am on CD17, 2DPO (I think). DTD the night before a strong positive OPK, it changed to strong positive hours later, so hopefully that was enough! This is our 2nd month TTC. I only use OPKs so I am hoping they don't let me down! I used an OPK to get pregnant with my daughter!

Was having trouble sticking with the LE diet a few days ago but that won't be hard today considering I woke up with 3 huge cankersores in my mouth!!

Good luck everyone!

OK just tried to catch up as I have been ill and haven't been on.

Robin - so sorry AF arrived, praying next month is your month.

Pokster - congratulations on your bfp!!!

Samish - Sorry you didn't get to see heartbeat on your scan. Hopefully it's its a good sign they saw more on this scan than you previous scan. Good luck for your next scan x

Pinkmama - Yay! Your numbers are more than doubling. How many dpo are you now? Have you tested again recently. I have everything crossed for you x

Shinay - so sorry you are having long cycles, hoping cd23 was your O day and praying this month is your month.

Teacher - Good luck ttc. I only used OPKs and they worked for me.


I am so sorry if I have missed anyone out.

I was ill last weekend with a uti and Dr gave me some antibiotics and I started to feel much better until I finished the antibiotics and bang this weekend I was back to being ill.
Back to emergency Dr's and got more antibiotics to cover me until Monday until I can see my own doctor.
As the wee sample has grown heavy bacteria they don't know which one is making me poorly so don't know which antibiotics are the correct one put me on. So 2 more samples have been sent off to culture.

I am now 5weeks and 2 days pregnant and not sure if it because I have been poorly or pregnancy related but I have been so nauseous for past couple of days :(

Hi everyone. Nice to hear from you happylea! Glad you are feeling better.
Praying for you Samish, hope your next scan goes well and you see a heartbeat. I can imagine the waiting is driving you insane! Hugs
Congrats pokster!
Fingers crossed for you Robin, for the next cycle.
Shinay, it must be so frustrating having long cycles, I hope you ovulated when ff said. Fx!
Pinkmama, those numbers sound good to me! Yey!
Welcome teachermom, good luck this month.
As for me, still not sure if I've ovulated or not.. ff says I have but my temps are much lower than usual and I never got a positive opk. I've been googling like mad trying to find something natural that will make me ovulate! I've been temping/ opks for over a year now and I've ovulated every month so these last two months have been so odd. And I feel like time is running out! Come on egg, hurry up!!

Pink numbers are doubling! Keep your head up!

I am sorry samish. I hope you get some answers soon!

I am so sorry you are sick happy. I hope you feel better soon and get lots of rest!

As for me. Cd4. Started Clomid at higher dosage last night and I literally felt like I was dying. Immediate hot flashes and felt overall very off. Like my heart started racing etc. I am not trying to sound over dramatic... it's weird bc i don't remember these side effects with my last round when I conceived.
since last month didnt work( and we knew it wouldnt) hubby wants to add an additional atempt. we are deciding to dtd night of trigger shot (o-36) and 2 days before that (o-84) or trigger shot day and the day of ovulation?. Our fettility clinic always reccomends dtd day of trigger shot, next night and the night after that. but obviously that sways heavy boy. we have always conceived our girls with 2 attempts. I NEVER get pregnant with one attempt. attempt #1 a few days before ovulation then another attempt #2 day of positive opk. my first daughter was actual day of "o" .

what do you guys think? i really want this to be my month since her/his due date would be almost same day as my misscarried daughter's birth.

Pinkmama
September 17th, 2017, 07:04 PM

Enviado desde mi iPhone utilizando TapatalkNo just bc I already know when ovulation is bc of the monitoring I am having done. This is the whole reason for doing e4d. It's basically the same as doing 1 attempt.
I need 2 attempts for sure.

Robin - sounds like a good plan to add an attempt, since you want to get pregnant quickly and need to do so being on Clomid. What dosage are you on now? From what I understand an attempt on trigger shot day (0-36) would probably be your best shot at conception - better than O or O-84 - since Atomic has said that the odds of conceiving are usually best at O-1 or O-2. So maybe if O day has been successful for you in the past you could do trigger day & O day? Fingers crossed for you that this is your cycle.

Pinkmama - definitely sounds positive that your numbers have doubled!!! I know that it's so stressful though not knowing for sure.

Shinay and Mummy... Sounds like you both might want to talk to your doctors again... Seems like something like Clomid or Femara could get you ovulating sooner and shorten your cycles.

Samish - Praying for you... I'm sure this is incredibly stressful.

Happylea - Sorry you're still battling UTI :( Hoping it gets better soon!!

Welcome Teacher!! Congrats to you Pokster!!!!

My DH is back from his work trip (he has another one next week but it's a shorter one). Hoping AF comes in the next couple of days so I can go in for my blood test. Atomic thinks that regardless of what the hormone tests this cycle show, the doctor is going to give me Clomid. So, that would be great for my girl sway, but ugh, it means I have to wait another cycle before we try again :( :( So tired of swaying and waiting to be pregnant, especially after thinking I was done with all that w/ my pregnancy last month. Thankfully my cycles are short so it's not a terrible wait bet cycles. Hopefully if we do get Clomid we get pregnant quickly on it.

What is the earliest I can test with a WONDFO pregnancy test? It's so hard waiting. Plus I work from home so it makes it even harder! Plus I O'd super early this cycle for some reason which makes me anxious.

What is the earliest I can test with a WONDFO pregnancy test? It's so hard waiting. Plus I work from home so it makes it even harder! Plus I O'd super early this cycle for some reason which makes me anxious.

I would say 8-10dpo the earliest IMO. Keep in mind the lines will be very faint at that time, so don't be discouraged if that happens. Some have gotten faint lines as early as 8-9dpo, but I question if they ovulated later than they thought. I was pregnant with twins at the start of this pregnancy, and I got faint lines the evening of 10dpo with only a 2-3 hour hold.

🤞🏻for you!

I am going to try to wait until 10DPO at least then! With my daughter, I swear I felt implantation, it was such a strong pinching feeling I had for a few hours that I never ever had before at about 9DPO. Not sure if I would feel that again or if was just a one time thing! Thanks for the help!

Robin - sounds like a good plan to add an attempt, since you want to get pregnant quickly and need to do so being on Clomid. What dosage are you on now? From what I understand an attempt on trigger shot day (0-36) would probably be your best shot at conception - better than O or O-84 - since Atomic has said that the odds of conceiving are usually best at O-1 or O-2. So maybe if O day has been successful for you in the past you could do trigger day & O day? Fingers crossed for you that this is your cycle.

Pinkmama - definitely sounds positive that your numbers have doubled!!! I know that it's so stressful though not knowing for sure.

Shinay and Mummy... Sounds like you both might want to talk to your doctors again... Seems like something like Clomid or Femara could get you ovulating sooner and shorten your cycles.

Samish - Praying for you... I'm sure this is incredibly stressful.

Happylea - Sorry you're still battling UTI :( Hoping it gets better soon!!

Welcome Teacher!! Congrats to you Pokster!!!!

My DH is back from his work trip (he has another one next week but it's a shorter one). Hoping AF comes in the next couple of days so I can go in for my blood test. Atomic thinks that regardless of what the hormone tests this cycle show, the doctor is going to give me Clomid. So, that would be great for my girl sway, but ugh, it means I have to wait another cycle before we try again :( :( So tired of swaying and waiting to be pregnant, especially after thinking I was done with all that w/ my pregnancy last month. Thankfully my cycles are short so it's not a terrible wait bet cycles. Hopefully if we do get Clomid we get pregnant quickly on it.So maybe dtd 2 nights in a row. Night of trigger then ovulation day?
There's a part of me that wishes I could just continue with one attempt. I'd feel more confident. I just cannot wait months on for sanity reasons. [emoji23]

I am on 75mg Clomid this round. I am hoping it produces more than 1 egg!!

Saw new ob today, didn't like him at all! Although he told me things as they are. He said: Stop doing betas, if your pregnancy is supposed to continue it will, if it's not it won't, and there is not much you can do about it but wait. I think he is right. He send me to have a US done first week of October. So I guess I will have to wait!

Hi everyone!! I'm still lurking like a big bored fed up lurker lol
Dh is still popping painkillers like sweeties and has been on and off antibiotics. I'm thinking that if he's started making any swimmers they are well and truly drugged up and it'll sway pink. Maybe I should just give up ttc again.
Hope everyone is ok and hanging in there.
Happy, Hope u feel better soon
ABC hope time passes quick and you get ur bfp soon
Robin the extra attempt sounds like a good idea.
Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favour people x

ABC: If you really dont want to wait, you could still try this cycle without the Clomid. And I hope it would work out for you. If not, you could always go on Clomid the following cycle.

As for me, I don't want to go on Clomid to help since it might hurt my boy sway so i dont want to risk it. I have been trying to research around and I keep wondering if I have PCOS...I have most of the symptoms. So how do you ladies with PCOS know that you actually have PCOS? Did you ask for specific tests?

It might be best if I take some time to exercise and lose weights first since it is said to help regulate cycles tremendously. Since I started HE diet, I added in 10lbs so it made my cycles worse and worse. I looked at my charts before the weights gained and my cycles were 31-34 days. Now my cycles are all over the places 40-70 days. Okay, I'm gonna stop soon so i dont keep rambling on.

On a side note, I have a "mole" in the back of my head. The doctor thinks it is okay and told me to come back if it starts growing. It has grown quite a bit in a pass couple months, so will need to check it out and see if it's cancerous. I hope it is not and we could just remove it. Why are there always things avoiding me from ttc?

shinay
September 19th, 2017, 04:56 PM
Robin: good luck with this cycle. I hope this is THE ONE for you!

BBB: have you checked with atomic about the painkillers and ttc blue? Maybe she will have some suggestions on how to go around it.

Shinay hope all is ok with the mole!

Mommy we've missed you! I understand though - ttc-ing is really stressful sometimes and I know you've been waiting for that bfp for awhile now.

BBB - I'm sorry for the stress you're going through as well with DH's meds/sperm.

Ugh - hoping we get a lot more good news/BFPs on this board soon!! Feels like it's been a tough month! Thankful for happylea and the others here who got their BFPs recently!

My AF arrived today, pretty much right on schedule - 25 days after my m/c started, my normal cycles are 24. So I should be getting my first blood draw on Friday to check hormone levels... here's hoping this leads to Clomid and a bfp w/in the next few cycles.... tomorrow marks 6 months since I started my sway.

I still can't test for another 5 days minimum. I am only 5 DPO. I am hoping this is the month, my LE diet has not been very LE lately. Been under some stress so I have been stress eating! :-(

Also my husband is getting a new job in November and will be traveling 75% of the time. So I really hope to be pregnant before then!! That will make it so much more difficult especially with my 40 day cycles and short LH surge.

Hi BBB!!! It's good to hear from you but I'm sorry things aren't going well [emoji853] how long do you think dh will need to be on painkillers and antibiotics? If your sway is strong other than the issues with dh can you check and see if atomic thinks you should go for it anyway? I have always thought the female environment was the most important factor?

Shinay pcos can be determined via blood test I believe. Hope the mole is nothing to worry about! And also hope they just remove it so you don't need to be concerned about it [emoji53]

It's on your mind 24/7 and every single time you go to the toilet, and every ache/twinge/cramp has you wondering is it starting. Its both a relief and incredibly devastating when it does start.

I am trying to hold off until AT LEAST 10dpo, so Tuesday. It's so hard because I work from home so I could easily become a POAS addict! I think with my last pregnancy, I tested positive at 11 or 12dpo. But I KNEW I was pregnant because I felt so different. I don't have any symptoms currently other than cramping, but I am dehydrated (soccer games all day for my kids today and it's super hot here).

Samish- according to Ramzi theory, transvaginal scans do not need to be flipped. The side you see the placenta on in your pic, is the side to guess off of. Since the placenta is on the right side, according to this theory the baby should be a boy. Again it’s not reliable at all- it’s on par with skull theory in my opinion.

I've not joined any of these two week wait threads yet but I hope you don't mind me joining as it'd be nice to have some people to share the stress with! I'm 7 or 8dpo at the moment. Ridiculously caved and tested today - of course BFN. I've felt pregnant pretty much every month since starting to TTC back in November so I'm trying to ignore any tricks my body is playing on me like sore boobs! I think I'm going to take a break from TTC after this month, as it's physically and emotionally draining but will be keeping a keen eye on you all getting your BFP's!

TeacherMom - congrats! That's a BFP!x

I haven't been swaying long, maybe 6 weeks but I'm at 119 lbs (BMI 18.6), my lowest weight in a while so I'm hoping that will help. We had one attempt at O-2 and I'm praying something sticks!

Has anyone done the hormone tests that you do before & after ovulation (LH, estrogen, FSH, etc)? I did the Day 3 test on Friday and am on CD 7 today. I thought my doc told me initially that I was supposed to have the 2nd test done on CD 7 or 8 but I haven't heard from him - he was out of the office when I went in for my Day 3 test on Friday and he hasn't called w/ the results of that one yet. I'll call the office tomorrow but I'm kinda panicking that I was supposed to go in today, or maybe tomorrow, for another test.

I get cd10, cd12 and day before ovulation.
I get told my estrogen level and LH serge numbers etc. I get ultrasounds to confirm uterine lining thickness and follicale sizes.
What exactly do you want to know?
My clinic does those days of testing when monitoring a cycle with ultrasounds.

September 26th, 2017, 06:32 PM
Abc I had cd3 and cd21 tests done. Cd21 because I ovulated between cd13-14 consistently. The blood test on cd21 is meant to be approx 7 days after ovulation so if you usually o later than this you may need to get the blood draw done later. Eg. If you o on cd18 then you'd go in cd25. I don't know what the cd7 or 8 test would be for sorry?

Ok my doctor called and I got more clarity. My CD3 tests - estradiol, FSH, and AMA (ovarian reserve?) were all normal. He wants me to do an ultrasound on Friday (CD10) to check follicle/cyst I guess. I normally ovulate day 13/14 (w/ 24 day cycle) so he's going to have me come in a week after ovulation (based on whenever I get a positive OPK.

So - It's good my tests are normal but I wonder if that makes my prospects of getting Clomid more bleak. I know I have a short LP so there's still that - we'll see I guess! If I have to wait out this cycle/not ttc b/c of these tests and then up not getting Clomid next cycle I'm not going to be super happy about that!!

Pbn3
September 26th, 2017, 07:48 PM
Glad its all cleared up abc! Maybe you can make a decision when you get your ultrasound as to whether you'll attempt this cycle or not. I'd actually ring back and ask him if everything looks normal on the u/s does he plan to try and extend your lp somehow and see if he mentions clomid? If he does then continue to hold off this cycle and if he doesn't then you at least have the option of getting an attempt in.....

My amh was over 4 - I think he said 4.4 or 4.8. When I looked it up just now it said over 4 may be PCOS. Should I suspect this? I have a few signs of insulin resistance (mainly acne and i struggle a bit with weight), which is why atomic told me to do PCOS LE. But super regular cycles and not really any other signs of it.

Abc you need to make sure you're looking at the right measurement. There are two ways to measure I believe. Mine was 1.8 which was very low considering anything between 14 and 28 (something like that, don't quote me on it) was considered normal. Yours sounds like its been measured the other way possibly?

I think he said that an AMH under 1-something is considered low - that you have a low egg reserve - and he sounded surprised that mine is over 4 b/c he made it sound like that is on the higher end of things. When looking it up it looks like in my age group, it usually is between 2-3.5. I guess the higher the number, the better the egg reserve but the more likely you have PCOS b/c there are more follicles/cysts, or something. Pbn - I'm wondering if you're talking about pmol/L measurement rather than ng/dL - the latter maybe is what the US uses and the former Australia? B/c if so that 14-28 normal range seems to be right for pmol/L.

Ugh - now I'm sort of stressing that I DO have PCOS. Never been tested for it or diagnosed with it since I've had normal/regular periods & have been very fertile, but it would explain the acne (including neck/jawline) & the fact that I have 2 boys!

September 26th, 2017, 09:48 PM
I bet you're right with the measurements description abc! I knew there was two ways to measure but its been nearly two years since I was tested so I couldn't remember exactly. I did remember my result though because I was gutted at the time. I thought PCOS is something that can be diagnosed via blood test? Can you inquire about it maybe? And don't stress about it! Especially if you're ovulating. A lady on here Purple has pcos and she had a baby girl after two boys (and long cycles as well) so its definately possible.

Sent from my SM-G900I using TapatalkPbn3 - yea I might ask him about the PCOS thing. I need to be a bit more bold about asking questions esp if it may lead to him giving me meds. He does still seem concerned that my LP is not long enough based on what I've told him so I'm kinda hoping that this cycle will confirm that to him and that will get him to prescribe Clomid - since atomic says that it's the gold standard treatment for short lp.

I need to get much more strict again too on the PCOS version of LE. I started out doing well on it but lately my intake of sugar/ sweets has crept up, even though I'm still in the fat/protein/cal limits. I'm really struggling to keep up the exercise too. Sigh. This process is not easy!!! :)

I just had to have them day 3?? I did do a day 21 progesterone test at a different time but nothing else! Not sure if that helps. (Sorry suddenly lots more posts come up now. They wouldn't give me clomid despite short LP because tests came back normal but others seemed to have been more lucky).

Another BFN today - gutted as boobs feel full and sore so had my hopes up. Even took the test apart in hope I saw a VERY faint line but just wishful thinking I think. Hubby has said if it doesn't happen this month, he feels it's meant to be and we should just move on with our 2 boys so really hoped this would be our month and our sign from the stars we were meant to have 3 children but I guess it is our sign that we weren't x

What kind of hpt is that onelastsway? It would need to have a really high sensitivity like the frers to pick up hcg at 9 or 10 dpo (if you'd implanted 2-3 days prior). And regardless of how long your lp is, it comes down to what day you implant as to when you'll see a pos hpt :) Generally implantation will take place between 6-10dpo and then it'll be 2 to 3 days before enough hcg is created to register on a sensitive hpt. I only asked about your lp in relation to when af would be due. So fx she stays well away and you get a bfp over the next few days!!

I'm feeling completely full of anxiety today. DH is out of town again for work so I'm tired with all the single parenting duties. I'm a little anxious with these tests I'm doing & what will come from them. And I just in general feel discouraged with swaying - like there's just no way I'll ever get my DD. I know that's just me being negative but there have been many great sways on here that have resulted in opposites and I just feel like I'm destined for that too. Ugh. I think mainly I'm just tired!!

I feel the same ABC. I mean I have had FIVE girls do I really believe I have a chance of a boy? Also with the whole sperm count thing, why am I even bothering. Its not fair that we all have to try so hard for something that comes so easily to a lot of people.

BBB hoping you feel better soon. Why not go with eod during your fertile week if you feel up to it. Your temping so should catch when ovulation has happened and can cease then. As an example if you're better in a couple days then bd cd9, 11, 13 and 15.

Big hugs Abc and hope dh is home soon. Try and not dwell on the testing, so far so good, and I've got a really good feeling about your chance of clomid!

Robin how are you? Are you 1dpo? I post quite abit in this site so sometimes it feels like a week has passed when in reality its only been a day!

BBB - I know it is frustrating... I had a few meltdowns with my DH about this shortly after my recent m/c. On one hand I know that those of us who can conceive easily (I got pregnant immediately w/ my two sweet boys and no m/c before or between those pregnancies), and have healthy bubs have so much to be grateful for. So many women struggle with infertility and recurrent miscarriages and I have nothing to complain about when you see their struggles. One of my closest friends who wants so badly to become a mom is starting IVF soon b/c she can't conceive naturally. I don't think I could ever tell her about all my swaying & how far my desire for a girl goes, as I'd feel so guilty as all she wants is a baby! At the same time, I know so many people as well that don't have any of those struggles, get pregnant fast, no losses and have both genders. My DH's siblings are like this and I get really jealous of them sometimes - which I know is terrible!!! But yea - I just want ONE little girl to complete my family, I'm working so hard for it but sometimes it just feels impossible! I REALLY do wish I could send you some blue dust!!!!

Thanks for the encouragement Pbn! I have a follicle ultrasound on Friday and then I actually have my annual OBGYN exam on Monday that I'd scheduled a long time back so I'll get to talk to doc in person then about the ultrasound & the tests. I think I may be bold and even ask directly about Clomid! I might tell him that I've read about it and have friends who have used it for similar issues (although most of those friends are my friends here on GD - haha!). I'd just like to get a sense - as you've mentioned - of what he might be thinking so far in terms of medication.

Robin - yes please update us!! Everything sounds so positive for you so far with this cycle!!!

BFN again today and boobs suddenly feel less full and sore (obviously just been killing me all week to get my hopes up). Feeling really gutted today and hubby said he won't try anymore. Hoping I can shake this sadness and just move on with my two boys but guess I have to let myself grieve for the third baby I'll never get to meet x

To be fair he was never sure about a third. He went along with it for me and he's given it a year. He feels it is a sign as we got pregnant straight away with the two boys. He is a lot older than me and doesn't want to be any older with a newborn. Our eldest son is very high need and our second isn't exactly a walk in the park, he feels we have enough to cope with, worries about the money...he has good reasons and in many ways it isn't the sensible choice but can't help the heartache. I really thought this was our month and it's just very hard to cope with right now, but I'm sure it'll get easier in time x

I think he'll be pretty careful! Will talk it over with him more but don't want to pressure him into something he doesn't want. We need to be in this together. Just wish this could be the month so it took it out of our hands I suppose instead of all this back and forth discussion. Thanks for the support ladies x

I am feeling this way too ABC. It seems like I am constantly reading about things that could possibly sway boy and I seem to fit every one of them - healthy, varied diet with lots of protein (although I've changed this over the last 2 months), heavy periods, low progesterone, hypothyroid, obsessive control-freak personality, naturally thin without a lot of weight to lose, etc etc etc. Part of me wonders if I'm just wasting my time with all of this and I'm just destined for only boys. I'm really thinking we're out this month anyways because I used Replens too close to our attempt. I'll probably start testing Monday or Tuesday.

Hang in there! The 2WW and TTCing really mess with your head! You absolutely can have a girl! Trust me- if I can, anyone can! I mean that! Ugh. I worried the whole time that my anxiety for being places on time and managing my boys’ behavior would wreck my sway. It didn’t. Stick to the diet’s limits, cardio if you can, one attempt in some fashion, coffee, and alcohol. Stay strong- you can do this!!

Thank you XX and congrats on your girl! The problem is I'm already pretty skinny and I can't afford to lose much more weight so the diet limits would put me way underweight. I'm really just trying to avoid breakfast, snacking, and meat for the most part and not obsess over tracking food. Because of my weight I don't want to add in vigorous exercise and really just don't know where the heck I'd find the time. So hopefully the small changes I've been making will be enough. We will stick with one attempt, coffee, and alcohol as well. And DH has been wearing briefs, avoiding red meat, and taking hot showers before BD.

That sounds fantastic! I think that is a fab sway and definitely one that you can stick to. If you keep getting BFNs, have your DH stop taking hot showers before BDng. Otherwise, I think your sway looks great. Definitely do what you won’t obsess over! I was such a hot mess with my previous sway obsessing over this and that [emoji849].

Hang in there! This is tough, and no one can give you answers or guarantees, which makes it even harder. Know we are all here for you, and you can do this!

What the heck?!?!!!!! I got a positive opk today on CD10 - I NEVER get them that early!! Usually its bet day 11-13 and then I ovulate 2 days later, which then with a 24 cycle gives me an LP of 10 days. OF COURSE the cycle I'm doing testing w/my personal hope of getting Clomid I'm probably going to ovulate early & have a longer LP and the doc will say no medicine is needed everything is normal!!! Grrrrrrrr.

I'm sitting in doc's office now waiting for follicle ultrasound. Guessing it will show that I'm about to ovulate any day now.

BBB - I'm ok, just as you can see above a little frustrated with everything :) Where did you order the hcg from? Can you follow up with them?

Ultrasound update: The tech literally said "wow, your uterus is beautiful!". Great lining, large follicle growing on the right, no cysts, will ovulate any day now.

Sigh I KNOW that should make me feel great, but dang, I really don't think I'm going to get Clomid now!!

Abc I wouldn't worry overmuch just yet. One really good looking cycle doesn't mean they all are so you'll still have a chance of clomid. I know it will be super frustrating to miss a cycle if he doesn't end up giving it to you but in reality you are only missing ONE cycle plus you have short cycles so next one will be here before you know it! I wouldn't specifically mention clomid to him either as he may shy away from it if he thinks you've been consulting Dr Google [emoji53] clomid is pretty much the first thing all obs try to help fertility with even for those ovulating as normal. Loo forward to hearing how your appt goes! Not long now!

Sent from my SM-G900I using TapatalkThanks Pbn - you're always so positive :) I need to be more that way. I mean I'm about to turn 34 and from the looks of things so far, I'm still pretty dang fertile. Lots to be thankful for. Maybe if my progesterone is low - which I still suspect it might be - that will help in getting Clomid. With as short as my cycles & LP are - and they've always been that way - you'd think something isn't quite right. And my BBTs pre-O are SO low. Anxious to get the doctor's take on Monday!!!

Ladies!! help me!!

I am nervous! i am 8 weeks plus but I am still not having any pregnancy symptoms.No nausea, MS or Sore Boobs! (usually these were my signs even before bfp with previous 2 pregnancies)

There was little heart pumping all the love last week that put me at little ease but I am still anxious.

I am also eating a lot and getting worse hunger cramps if I am hungry and i don't get my food in next 5-10 mints. I have already put on a lot of weight due to HE diet and I am afraid this "hunger game" will make my weight go crazy

Samish - I was really hungry during the first trimester with both my boys but it was really bad with DS2. The hunger is definitely a pregnancy symptom so you are having symptoms! :) :) I was also sort of convinced that the hunger meant DS2 was a boy because I think there's maybe an OWT that boys make you hungrier. Well it was true for me so hopefully that's a little blue bean in there for you! As far as lack of sore boobs, I never had sore boobs with either of my boys. Remember each pregnancy can be very different symptom-wise! When is your next scan/appt?

Samish loads of people have no symptoms early on. I didn't have any with dd1 until 8/9 weeks and never had sore boobs with any of them! Unless you were bleeding then try not to worry. Little one is all good!
I have to have the day 21 progesterone test repeated because I had it done too long before the cd2-3 test ( they couldn't fit me in for it so I had to wait til next cycle to have it done)

XX and ABC - thank you! I really hope you are right that my sway looks good. I feel like its not much. And while I feel like it's good that I don't have much weight to lose, I thought I read that being naturally skinny isn't as good for a sway as losing weight is. And at some point soon, I'm going to want to put some weight back on. Friends and family have commented on how skinny I am recently. I really wish I could just be pregnant so I can start stuffing my face with whatever I want! 9 DPO today and BFN. I feel completely normal so I'm guessing I'm out this cycle.

ABC - I think it's this diet that makes us get these earlier positives. Normally I O around CD 20-22 and this cycle I O'd on CD 16! I panicked when I saw that my opk was positive on CD 15! If your luteal phase is short, I doubt you will have a hard time getting Clomid. It seems like for most OB's that is their first go-to.

Samish - with my first son, I had no symptoms! I was mainly just hungry like you. But no sore boobs, nausea, nothing else. Try not to worry!
