Oh my gosh, Mrs. P and PFP- I jumped on here to post the crappy news that AF showed with a vengeance...but I got a good laugh from you girls! Hahahaha! Pee on anything that moves. That's how I've felt for the last ten days, LOL! Thanks for the cheering up.
Mrs. P, it's all you!! When was your last test??
My plan for tonight is a glass of wine, some cheese, a good movie and comfy pajamas. Then strapping back into my (looser) LE diet, and off to buy some more soy for cd 3-7. Come on, cycle six!
I am 1DPO now, congrats to you all that have got your BFP's this month, hope I am joining you at end of month!!
Full AF today. I eased the pain with a hamburger. I figure I deserve one :)

Morning ladies I think I am officially 1dpo today ( got my smile on tuesday morning) ? Look forward to chatting to everyone. I havent yet read through all the 61 pages so excuse the impersonal entry into the thread :-)
oh no sorry hun :sad: was really hoping it would be good news, if i've still not had af i will test again tomorrow morning - 17dpo it should be showing by then if its going toQuote:

I am currently on cd25 and we used FR and dtd on days 14, 16, 19 and 21 hoping to catch o. Any suggestions?
I'm planning a takeaway pizza very soon, either when I get my BFP or when AF arrives! If it's AF I will probably eat very little the rest of the day so I don't completely blow my calories as obviously I'll have to continue the LE diet! DH is away on business till tonight so I've waited to POAS till he was back - so hard to wait but I've managed it. Testing tomorrow morning! So scary!Quote:

I'm not sure when I O'd as the OPKs were a bit vague. But just going on my cycle I'm 11DPO so thought 12DPO would be OK to try first test. With both boys I just tested after I'd noticed AF was late. They were both conceived first try so I wasn't expecting them yet I guess. I've had lots more CM than usual, a headache for a couple of days and been ravenous! Fingers crossed! xQuote:

Well, I decided to take my Clomid days 1-5. I know it's crazy, but I am hoping it works this time! I am desperate to be over all this TTC! Now if I could get twin girls that would be a dream come true!

I totally agree! I had a blue cheese hamburger last night. Last meat splurge, on to cd2!Quote:

Thanks Cravin but only 16dpo today and not temping so idea on that one but i don't feel pregnant - i'm having lots of period type pains and weird brown discharge at various times throughout the day so its more likely my af is trying but struggling due to the clomid.
Still i suppose in 2 days time i'll reach 18dpo so maybe i'll get preggers by default - it seems on here though everyone has had a bfp by 13dpo and mine was def neg that morning
You have certainly beat me this last cycle on Clomid. Took it cd5-9 and did not O until cd18 and finally got my AF on cd32 which was 14DPO, so you certainly have a chance at making it to 18DPO. I am praying and rooting for ya!!!Quote:

So funny...
I think since they KNEW I was on my period, they didn't want to tempt fate, so they made sure they got me in there right away. LOL. I didn't have to wait - AT ALL.
Anyway, the ball is now rolling and I am SO NERVOUS about what these labs are going to say.
Thinking of you today. I'm glad you didn't have to wait, lol!Quote:

Navy - I had yellow ewcm and creamy cm almost every day after O. I kept saying to myself, "this is quite strange. I never get yellow cm or any cm for that matter". Rooting for you!Quote:

What are cd3 tests? what does the blood work look for?Quote:

Sounds right to me, Craving...
That's my understanding, too.
We actually did have my DH checked out recently...when I first started swaying a few months ago, his ph was high...it was right when I found GD. I mentioned it was high to Atomic and she told me that I should have him checked out, that it could be an indication of infection - which he is prone to. You should've heard THAT phone call...LOL! He made me call his urologist and tell him that I was checking his ph and found it to be high. LOL!! Grrrrrrrrrrreat!! After a pause, the nurse said, "Umm....you must be in the medical field or something."
Anyway, they thought I was NUTS, but I told them we were trying to conceive and wanted to make sure everything was in working order.
The doctor ended up ordering a Semen Analysis - which turned out to be completely normal, although on the VERY high end....as in, no doubts why we have boys.
So...I know he's not the problem...it's me. I just hope that my anxiety has been keeping me from conceiving and that once I find out everything is normal (which I'm praying that it is) that I'll relax and everything will fall into place with a BFP.
I really am anxious to know what this test reveals... :(
I hope I don't have to wait until the 25th to find out.
Hahaha! Beadin, what a story. Something to laugh at when you are holding your little bundle and talking about what it took to get there.
I had my hubby checked out when we were taking so long getting pregnant with ds1. He was fine. He was moooore than fine- I forget what his count was but something like 6x’s more (quantity) than what the threshold would be for “enough”. (No wonder we have boys too!) So I was kind of pleased that his output has been less this time around (noticeably). But hopefully he’s not shooting dusty blanks- that won’t sway anything!
What we actually *think* it ended up being was a blocked tube. We did the HSG (dye test) and I saw the dye shoot straight through one tube, but in the other it go to a certain point, slowed down, stopped…then shot right out. The tech said it might’ve been a little blob of mucus. A little mucus blob that gave me heartache for over a year! The next month I got pregnant. Coincidence? I don’t know. I do have two tubes but at the very lease that little blob may’ve cut my chances in half over the long term.
DS1 was 6 months when we pulled the goalie to try for #2. One month later, pregnant! I’m thinking of having another hsg test done to see if we can knock another blob loose… but I’ll give it a couple of months first. This month’s plan: soy and evening primrose oil! And the LE diet, but not going to go overboard with it like I was. Better choices, portion control, that kind of thing- versus the white rice/pasta/parmesan cheese/crystal lite diet.
I guess I’m on cd2 so I’ll stop posting in the 2ww about my stuff.
For all you other ladies waiting- good luck! Warm up those hpt’s for us and get the next bumper crop of bfp’s going! Meet you all in the due date club very soon (positive thinking, positive thinking). Especially you, Mrs. P!
Oh beadin really got my fingers crossed for you, hope everything is normal - i'm sure it is though given what the girls were saying on the other thread about how difficult it actually is to get a good sperm, a good egg and for it to stick added to all the swaying things were doing its no wonder its taking a while.
It is this just a wait and see cycle or are they going to try you on anything? I have a hospital appt next month my doc arranged but that was why i asked to try clomid (that and swaying reasons) i kinda figured it would be three months for the appt then a month or two of monitoring (and they probably wouldn't have given me anything anyway as if we were ttc normally there wouldn't be a prob)
Er no your still more than welcome in the 2ww you can wait for the 2ww here with me, i'm getting a bit lonely on my own now, last one of our lot left waiting i'll be all out of sync with you all next month :sad:Quote:

Love that!! Hope floats :) Great movie, too! (Even if I did cry my eyes out in the theater and had a date that night that I had to cancel because my eyes and face were so puffy. LOL!!)
Craving...my sister had the exact same thing happen with her with the HSG thing & got pregnant directly after! She said she was going to do it all over again last year when she was trying to conceive again and she never got to do the HSG...but she did deliver my nephew a few months ago ;) lol...
I hope next month is lucky for all of us!!
Mrs. P...all of our hopes are hanging on you, honey!! :) Wishing you lots and lots and LOTS of luck!!! XOXO
I cry every. Single. Time. That movie kills me.Quote:

FSH is the quality, AMH is the quantity. You can have a low amount (like me) but have them be good quality (again like me).Quote:
