Posted this already in the 2WW but adding it here too...
Ok, new thing happening and I'm totally symptom obsessive! I mentioned I was having a bad breakout on my jawline and chin...well, now I have a weird rash that is all around my bra line! Not on my BBs, but below and above where my bra is...no where else and it doesn't itch! It reminds me of a rash I had late in my pregnancy with my DS (!!!!) that the doctor called Pruritic Papules of Pregnancy. I'm wondering if this might be what it is??? I only had it that one time and it went away after I delivered him. The only thing is it came up the last month or so, not earlier.

Yayyyyyy bubba you lil miracle!!!!!!!! The dr thinks the reading of 3 may have been so low because the hcg had only just reached my blood in the previous few hours.

I'm so happy to hear this. I hope that your hcg numbers continue to rise and rise!

It's very hard not to get your hopes up. When there is a glimmer of hope it's inevitable to think that it might actually happen! And you know what Lola, there is hope so it is only natural to get excited. You're only human :)

Yahmama, the temp rise could be triphasic if implantation has occurred. See what it does tomorrow!

FX for you ladies in 2ww limbo... I know it's so tough to sit and second-guess symptoms, temps, etc

AFM - well AF has officially come, two weeks after the peak on the monitor! I am pretty sure my body tried to O but didn't b/c my temps didn't shift. Now I get to see if my cycles will be normal or irregular... I am happy on one hand b/c I will probably be able to lose the last of my baby weight now. But also bummed... Honor is so high-needs, nurses tons, etc - you would think my body would hold off on being fertile. Maybe having more kiddos makes you more fertile... Anyways, I hope cycles are normal and make it easy to TTA since it's this time next year that we want to try.

Hopefully your cycles will be normal Skrimpy!

I hope it's not an ectopic :( Your level does seem low but don't they always say it's not the value of the hcg that matters so much but whether it doubles appropriately or not?

Is your sister ok? How awful :(

FX for Hobber and Lola ... anyone else testing? Soni maybe? I feel like there were a handful of y'all testing on Saturday.

5 I think I said it on another thread but I'm thrilled this bean is sticking :) FX the numbers just keep getting better and better!!!

Thanks B :)

Oh, whoops, I went a little nuts with all the posts...

AF showed today. I was totally expecting her to so I'm not too disappointed. I had a blood test this morning for hcg and progesterone so just waiting to hear back from my doctor as to what the plan for this cycle is. Either another Clomid cycle or FSH injections. Either either, I don't care as long as it works!

I wish my AF would show up aswell, it's giving me false hope but I know there is no way I am pregnant.

What cycle day are you?
January 20th, 2012, 11:05 AM
LolaInLove

Morning, ladies.

Bec- thank you for the encouragement, you are a sweetheart. I am sorry you got AF....you think you may try the injectibles this time? How many months will your doc let you do Clomid? Mine said 6 months, but I only did 3. I know you'll get there, girl.

TTC5- how is your sis? I am so sorry!!!! Good to hear that bean is ok still. xxoo

LBAM- arg on the long cycle....I am sorry, honey. Why do you think there is no way your are pg?

3P1B- so happy Charlie is looking good and almost ready to go! I am so excited for you!!!!!!! And seriously, I saw your belly pic on the grads page and I looked WAY bigger at your stage with both, and I was a size 4-6 to begin with. I think you look great!

SO, I have this burning sensation cramp today (11dpo). Did anyone have that in the 2ww? Makes me think that AF is coming. So kinda bummed today. Yesterday, my boobs felt gigantic and sore, and not as much today. I resisted testing this morning because I am trying to hold out hope that I will get a birthday bfp in the morning, but I'm kinda doubting it now. :sad:
January 20th, 2012, 01:32 PM
Hobbermittens

Bec, sorry for AF! :( I hope the dr. figures out a good plan for your next cycle.

Soni, maybe you tested too early? FX you get a BFP tomorrow!

Lola, I hope you get that birthday BFP tomorrow!! Try not to feel discouraged yet!

3P1B, glad everything is looking good for Charlie's arrival!

TTC5, I am so sorry about your sister--I hope she is okay!!

LBAM, no AF yet? Can you test again?

I am pretty sure I am out. My temp dropped to 98.2 this morning, and looking at my chart, I think I will get AF tomorrow. I am not even going to POAS if my temp is down more in the morning. :( No point in wasting a test!

Oh boo, Hobbs. Well, better luck for next month. I'm sorry, hun.

Trying not to be down myself. Just not feeling it today.

Like has three phases of temps, or pretty much two rises....like it rises after O and then rises again dramatically after implantation.

You see two clear shifts after ovulation. This explains it better:

I feel lame for getting all excited the last few days. It would have been fun to have the same due date. Well, we are not out yet. Good to remember! I just went to lunch with a friend and her 9 week old, and she said she didn't feel anything when in the 2ww, so reminded me that being symptom-less isn't necessarily bad. She had to ttc for 7 months, but she had a vitamin d deficiency, she told me, and once she got more in her system, she got pg. At least you guys know you will at some point most likely conceive! I hate my limbo land of hell, especially since we decided we just can't do IVF....too expensive and not fair to other kids to be poor for 5-7 years paying it off just to have another one.
