Glad you're going to keep trying XX.

Hope your BP can be controlled, YB.

Out of my 4 pregnancies I have only had an implantation bleed with one of them so it can happen only once. Fx for you

Absolutely Purple! I am hoping and praying that Clomid does the trick!

Thanks for the well wishes ladies! I have a neighbor that has severe PCOS, and they have been trying for #3 before we got pregnant with our DS3 [emoji20]. I feel badly for her. She is even on Metformin and Clomid.

I just hate to see people struggle to get their babies [emoji20].

My best friend is one of those people and I really don't know how to tell her I pregnant with number 4 last time i thought I was she hung up the phone and cried told me later i shouldn't have told her and could have wait a few months. 2 days ago she was fishing for information but I wasn't going to tell her anything just yet because she has just bought her 1st house and I done want to put a downer on that. She also said she hates people who can just pop them out and even though I have had to have fertility treatment to get this one she not going to see it like that just yet and I know it's doing to upset her no matter when I tell her. Ahe has put offbtedting for so long she has only just now asked for help and the basic test have showed no reason why she isnt getting pregnant. I think she has a very short lp but won't look for when she is o'ing or record her cycles because that will tell her so much. I want to tell her about me but I also want to save her feelings. I wish nothing more than for her to have a baby!

Thanks :) I took it back in November last year as I got some leftovers from a friend. This time it will be properly monitored so hopefully I can get good timing.

DS1 is also a clomid baby and I took it once when trying for DS2 and got pregnant but miscarried.

So I went to a GYN appointment today for the first time ever in my life. I've only seen homebirth midwives with my pregnancies and family doctors for everything else including my annual pap, etc. I wanted to figure out what's up with my super heavy hemorrhaging periods, possible fibroids, and low iron. The doctor I went to had excellent reviews and specializes in fertility issues. She spent an hour with me! Anyways, she did a transvaginal ultrasound and said I do NOT have any fibroids, but that my uterus is enlarged (6-8 week pregnancy size) and I have a big golf ball sized mass on my left ovary! She said it looked like ovarian endometriosis, so a big blood and tissue filled mass (endometrioma it's called)! I guess they are also called chocolate cysts because when you cut them open it looks like a chocolate truffle! She said the enlarged uterus may just be from me having had kids. She did say it was lumpy though! But none of that is causing my heavy periods she said. She took a bunch of blood tests and wants to test me for blood disorders like sickle cell, von willebrand, etc. She also wants me to try and not have a period for 1-2 months to build up my iron stores. So she prescribed some progesterone only pill that's stronger than the mini pill and should stop my period. Then she prescribed another med, Lysteda, that's non-hormonal to take during my period that should make it lighter. That one I'm actually leary of taking since it causes blood clots and I'm already at risk for that due to my homozygous MTHFR mutation and I read a study where several women with the same mutation suffered strokes while taking it!!! So not sure about that one. She'll get back to me in a week to go over all my blood test results. The progesterone pill may shrink my ovarian mass (she'll recheck in 6 weeks), but if not I'll need laproscopic surgery to remove it since it's not normal. Fun times!

Well atleast you have some answers and hopefully everything will work out good and soon get your baby girl. Just sucks having to deal with all that.

How is everyone? it's gone quite here!

I'm still have light spotting. Seems probably like an odd AF coming off the IUD. So hopefully better luck in May!

Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Sooo, I've been much better with the diet and only had 3 off days during AF. Buh-ut, my temp is high this morning!! Like my in my post-O range! If it's high for the next two days then I for sure Oed. If not, then it could be a fluke high temp. I've been getting good sleep lately so lack of consistent sleep in a row is not the cause of my high temp. Good news is we only had one attempt so if I did O, I have that going for me along with the exercise. I have gotten pregnant before with an early ovulation on CD4-5 before with DS1, so I know it can happen. It's a high probability it is early O, since I had a delayed O last cycle.

And now I wait...

I'm working on just getting my fertility back... saw a naturopath to work on adjusting my thyroid levels. I've been feeling like garbage lately (because of my thyroid) and she said that may be definitely contributing to my fertility not returning. So hopefully may...

Waxing or threading in pregnancy safe?

Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Threading is fine. It's just a thread pulling out hairs. Waxing is probably fine too.

Waxing is fine too!

Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I just got turned away from the brow bar to wax my eye brows and lip with with them saying it's too shocking to the body during pregnancy. I went to the threading bar to enquire and they said it's safe but I find threading more painful than waxing. I barley feel the waxing.

Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Really odd. I have gotten a bikini wax while pregnant! I barely feel eyebrows either.

Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I'm very jumpy with threading. I'm quite upset about it because I feel like I'm walking around looking like a gorilla lol

Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I'm sure waxing is fine but they probably just didn't want to do it as a CYA type deal. I'm sure they don't want to risk a potential lawsuit.

Hiya, has anybody started up a May ttc/2ww thread?

I had a look but could find one yet X

Hey BR, it fine to wax during pregnancy,I'm a beauty Therapist and have never heard of being turned away bcos your pregnant, they are full of it!!! Weird salon . Its probably related to the oils they use after waxing, cause some arnt safe during pregnancy
I know women who book in to get a Brazilian a week before there due

Yes I have 3 boys. I would like to hear them say girl too but if not then I am going to be a little upset but I know I will get over it I did before. I also know then I was only ever meant to be a boy mom and I did everything in my power to shift the odds. How many children do you have I can't see your signature on tapatalk

If I was attempting once in the fertile period when should I have BD'ed? if I had attempted today would that be too late? would I have already ovulated by the time the monitor gives that reading? I usually get 2 -3 days high fertility, 2 days of egg symbol (ovulation) and then 2 days of high fertility. Would I be better attempting on day 2 of high fertility and hope the swimmers hang around for ovulation? Many thanks

The egg symbol does NOT mean O. It means you are having your LH surge that triggers O. On average, it's most common to O 1 day after your surge (so the day after you first see the egg symbol), but O can happen 2, 3 or more days later. It sounds like at the very earliest you Oed on CD13.

I think you most likely Oed on April 1st which lines up exactly with your dating scan. I think you must have conceived from the pull out on CD25! Good odds for pink :)

essnce, so sorry to hear about the endometrioma and lumpy uterus.i hope the meds are able to shrink it. I bet it is entirely to blame for your heavy bleeding and low iron.

XX, I think it's unlikely that you've Oed yet, based on your CM. You have had a past cycle in which your temps during and right after AF were similarly high, so it's not unheard of for you.

I've read up but will post about myself in the May thread! Just wanted to address those few things.

I have 3 my son is 8 my daughter just turned 7 and my DS is 2
Whole reason I did this was for my DD the child asks me for past 4 years for a sister daily lol.
The other day my husband and I were discussing purchasing a trundle type bed for the boys once, but my youngest is still small and won't sleep away from me.
But she got so upset she started to cry that it isn't fair that she doesn't have a sister yet to share a room with.
I just felt so bad.

I know feel like I messed up my sway, I BD 3 days and 1 day before o and day after o which prob didn't mean anything.

I just didn't think I would of gotten pregnant. But in all reality it is what is meant to be. So for my daughter I pray God gave her a little sister.

Aww my son's are asking me for a sister too. And they probably need a bossy littlea sister keeping them in check too. I may have actually away boy with my exercise in the end because i couldnt dit it in all the time. But i have pcos so any exercise is still great. I was ok on my diet did have some cheat days. I bd tge morning before I o'd and on the morning I od on atomics advice we had to catch the egg after I had fertility treatment. but just really really hope I get a girl this time.

yes as soon as I possibly can so either we can get over the disappointment or I can enjoy every moment of having a girl pregnancy. Are you finding out? I did see your dilemma in another post.
