Noemi maybe you do nee to ease up, especially in the exercise? Drop it to 4-5 times a week... have you checked in with Atomic lately for advice? Are you doing the upper limits of the diet?

I can totally relate hannah [emoji173] let yourself be angry and sad and disappointed and all the rest. Once things settle down maybe you can talk or pen a letter to your husband describing your feelings about wanting this last baby and how having this one taken away has made you feel. My hubby was not on board fully for quite awhile when we were ttc, he went through the motions and would mostly do the attempts when I asked but he had no emotions invested in the process, and I felt very alone in that way when I went through my losses. I don't think he was excited about our last baby until I was nearly due [emoji23] and now he cant imagine life without her...
Your hubby *may* come around and at least agree to NTNP for awhile if he has a clear understanding of how you feel [emoji173]

TP cannot wait for this 2ww of yours to be over!!! Are you temping? When will you start testing? From memory you seem to get squinters quite early right?

Fantastic news Abc [emoji113]
You can go into your ttc cycle with this knowledge and it will hopefully take away some of the uncertainty [emoji173]
Cannot wait for your sticky bean [emoji304][emoji322]

Thanks emshe and Pbn... I think just having all these tests done and not having to wait for any more results is enough to relieve some of my mental burden for now. DH told me last night he wants to try next cycle... I'm still leaning against it, which he will be fine with, but we'll see. I have a couple more weeks to decide. And if we do decide we want to but that cyst on my ovary hasn't gone away by then (they want to check it again right before we start ttc), then we wont be able to next cycle anyways.
Thanks, Pbn. I agree. Tonight's at 7pm looks clearer and the urine was less concentrated (Drank more water). I haven't had ewcm through the day but have been a bit dehydrated. This morning there was some creamy mucus. If we BD tonight around 1030pm and I get a much clearer positive tomorrow I might have another attempt... Will review my personal plan for details on that fr9m atomic.Attachment 39295

Hi ladies. Just a quick question. I am currently on progesterone suppositories. Got a digital negative after pregnancy tests were getting lighter. Should I go ahead and stop progesterone or should I continue u til I get bloodwork done? I feel like the progesterone May be delaying the bleeding

Hannah I'd stop. No point in waiting for bloodwork IMO (hugs)

Definitely positive gafan, go go go! 🤞
That's great news about DH's tests abc, bet you are both relieved. Your sticky one is surely coming soon.
Hannah I hope you are ok. I think pbn is right, stopping the progesterone makes sense. This ttc business is so heartbreaking sometimes.
Yeah I love this board, I've joined lots of groups but this is the only one I actually post in, it's so supportive and such a positive place. Virtual group hug lol [emoji23]

For all you ladies who have been through or are currently going through loss... my sister sent me flowers with this message after my 2nd loss which she was party too courtesy of our ill timed family reunion, she said when she read the quote in the paper she automatically thought of me and wrote it down in the flowers card. I found myself repeating these words over and over for the next few weeks and I'm sure in some weird bizarre way it helped. I'll never ever forget these words and the reason for saying them and that will stay with me for life. It's actually comforting for me, I think because of the emotional attachment I now have to the quote? In my own way, by saying these words, even just in my own head, I'm remembering and giving validation to my angel babies [emoji173] Thought I'd share it as I remember it giving me a boost of strength at the time [emoji173]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5c04769f5b.jpg

So sorry, hannah and nonerz, hugs.
Abc and throwaway_panther, just wanted to say I'm amazed by you, despite what you went through, you are so kind and thoughtful about others, and remain positive and bring so many positive vibes to us. You deserve all the happiness in the world, and the world deserves more children from such parents like you :) All the best to you and good luck!
Abc, I'm so happy that all the analyses are fine!
Verena, great that you could see so much on U/S! Keep getting good news!
Thanks everyone for support. I'm getting better, still not completely healed, I still don't know what to expect. The other day I was kind of sure I'm miscarrying, I had some strange pains and not feeling pregnant, but now I don't know. Tomorrow will be just 5 weeks. Oh, even after bfp symptom spotting continues, at one point I have one symptom, at the other - another, and then - nothing. It's crazy, what bad experience and loads of information can do to your mind, normal pregnancy with healthy babies seems like a miracle, not an ordinary thing.
Wishing all of us to get our miracles soon! :)
Pbn yes Atomic told me exercise less...so now im running 6x weekly maybe i should even less. It is cd9 and im still spotting, it never happend to me before, isnt it some hormonal disbalance?:think:
@PBN: That quote was my mantra before our second IVF cycle! I had forgotten about it because things got SO hard after that... thank you for sharing it!!
@sunstars: Omg thank you! You literally made me teary eyed!! I hope you're right and we get blessed with a healthy baby of our DG soon! Are you considering seeing a doctor about the spotting? I'm hoping bean stays sticky! Maybe just spotting from sex or a bowel movement?!
Abc that is great news your tests are fine:Flower:
Hannah, again, I'm so sorry. I had to decide to stop progesterone with m/c #2 and it was hard :(
Thanks Noemi!!! And I would agree with Pbn - maybe cut back a bit more on the exercise? I think even 4-5 days per week is still getting really good results!! I've done 5 days a week for most of my sway, but walking/exercise bike. You are one tough lady to be able to run every day!! I'd never be able to do that!!
Pbn - I love that quote!
Aw Sunstars that's so sweet of you to say!!! This board has been so important to me - especially the past couple of months. This last m/c of mine has been really tough to get through but having all the support and encouraging messages from all of you on here has helped so much!!! I do hope your spotting stops soon - as you may have seen me tell Girl Dreaming yesterday, I had early pregnancy spotting with DS1 and 2nd tri bleeding with DS2 and they both turned out just perfect!!! My 2nd trimester bleeding pregnancy is sitting here in front of me right now singing to himself and playing trucks!! Will be praying for this little bean of yours to stick!!!
Mummy can you post your chart link again? I saw something about your temps looking really good!!! :fingers:
Here it is I think 🤞

So can you ladies point me to some good advice on egg health starting CD1. We would love a girl but can ease on some sway tactics if needed.

Mummy - looks good!!!!
Hannah - Here's a post from Atomic about egg quality: http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...g-quality.html
I'm doing CO-Q10 (specifically ubiquinol - which is better absorbed), 200 mg per day. I think a lot of people do 400-600 mg per day - it is kind of expensive though.
After my 1st or 2nd m/c (I can't remember) Atomic advised me to increase folate (and no folic acid - folate only, and I'm taking 2,400 mcg/day), and take B12, zinc, and vitamin D - the lowest dose you can find of each - 3x/week.
I've also heard a lot about trying to avoid touching receipts b/c of the BPA in them, as BPA is supposed to negatively affect egg quality. I haven't exactly figured out how to do that though as it's kinda hard not to take your receipts when shopping! :) And obviously avoiding any plastics with BPA in them as well.
ABC, this is good stuff. Thank you! I did go ahead and buy CoQ10 and the lowest dose of D. I’ll add the others and invest in a good pill box!! Haha

Lol I just bought a new one recently and it has an "AM" and "PM" section for each day - makes me feel like I'm 75 years old!!!
Oh and with folate if you're taking a higher dose, atomic advises spreading it out over the day bc if you take a big dose at once your body will just pee a lot of it out I guess!
So my 5 year old just asked me at dinner tonight how babies are made and he also said (for the millionth time) that he wants a girl baby. And he tried out some baby girl names. LOL! This was all unprompted. So apparently I'm not the only member of my household with babies on the brain! :) :)
Abc, my 4.5 years old son bring this constantly for more than a year! He started to bring this couple of months after we've lost his sisters (and we didn't tell him, he had a sister in the hospital, well, I decided to wait for another day, but then things went downhill), and he wanted only sister in the beginning. If there was some small clothe or kind of girly looking toy he wouldn't want to play with, he would say we'll keep this for our baby girl :) He would ask for 3 or even 4 floor bed, not 2 floors as we planned, he would say "it's for our sisters" :) Later his "tastes" started to vary, now sometimes he says he would like a brother, and when indicating he already has a little brother he would say, "well, he's not a baby anymore or I want another one, a better one" :) So now it depends on his mood and the baby he sees on the streets, if he wants a brother or a sister, but the more time passes the more annoyed is his voice "When we will finally have our little baby?" To say the truth, it always made me feel good and not sad, and realize that no matter what, I'm still full of hope, that it will happen :)
My son hasn't been asking for a baby and that's been kind of nice because although I know only children are perfectly healthy I want him to have a sibling if possible.
How many days are you all testing for ovulation past a positive OPK?

I read "it starts with the egg" 2 months before my ivf cycle too.
I did coq10 and a TON of extra vitamins and also avoided plastics and receipts.
It worked for me as I had a total of 26 eggs collected and 8 made it to pgs perfect babies. 1 boy 7 girls!
I strongly believe taking these things before helped my results.

Still waiting for the opportunity to even try to TTC. 16 days post d&c, we got our baby's chromosomes back and it had turner syndrome. She was XO instead of XX or XY. Its hard to say if my sway truly worked since 80% it the sperm that was missing the 23rd chromosome (the sex chromosome, the X or Y). The other 20% it is the egg. But im calling her my baby girl either way. Anyways, since i am still having positive hpt i started quantitative hcgs. On wednesday the 11th it ended up being 105. So Im waiting on a 0 and AF before we can even TTC. I am thinking I will do another slight sway. Anyone think that miscarriage or d&c sway pink or blue for next pregnancy?
