TTC Girl - February 2012

Prayfoeprincess- I think that's promising. Maybe this is it!! Fingers crosses for you.


Suregena - will check in tomorrow hoping eveything is ok with you!

Mocha- so glad to here baby is good! Left side is a good sign

I just had my first midwife appt and finally got the results form my u/s a couple of weeks ago. All was well with the baby so far - he or she was measuring 2 days ahead and had a heart rate of 175. They said I have a small corpus luteum cyst on my left ovary, which is nothing to worry about and just means I ovulated on that side recently. I'm hoping this means I ovulated on the left this most recent time since that could be a good girly sign (and I know this is just an old wives' tale - don't worry - I won't get my hopes up too much based on this).

Anyway, as I was researching these cysts I found this:

"Very rarely, the corpus luteum may form a cyst. A corpus luteum cyst will cause BBTs to stay elevated and prevent menstruation from occurring until it resolves, which could take weeks or months."
Basal body temperature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Could this be what's happened to you, suregena? Have they given you an u/s yet?

Glad you apt went well!!

Suregena-I was wondering the same thing, I think it can cause cramping too. Hope your apt goes well tomorrow, KUP.

Mocha, your baby is going great! Very happy for you.

P4P, FX for you. It is so hard not to analyse every little thing in the 2WW isn't it!

Well we ended up BD last night and this morning. Still no +OPK, but I was having O pains and my cervix started getting less soft, so I figured I may as well give it a shot. I am so frustrated that the OPKs didn't work this month, but in the end I had to listen to my body. I didn't get much EWCM at all this month, so that was no help to work out what was going on. It is DS1s b'day today (6). He will be all grown up if I don't get pg soon.

Any news Pinkin?

Suregena will still be asleep, so I'll check in later and see how her appt went. Mocha, that was very interesting about the cyst. It would certainly explain some of her symptoms.

mocha , the corpus luteum comes from the side you conceived from.
thats how they know what side you ovulated from when you are pregnant, because all pregnancies have a cyst in that ovary, its what produces the hormones untill the placenta takes over.

BFN for me this morning... 10 dpo but could say maybe 9 dp attempt.. Will test again in the morning.. AF is due on either 28th or 29th so still 5 or 6 days away yet.. Boobs are very sore but that is a af sign for me aswell as preg sign.. other then that nothing else to add to symptoms..

I am not sure my DH can DTD am and PM, but I think I might give that a try too. A couple of the AMs were actually like 1 or 2am, but not AM like after he had slept all night.

Share your chart?

I also didnt jump and dump this time i lay 15 mins each time after and once fell asleep all night! I figured that with diet and clomid i was immediately killing all the sperm?Next time i wont do 9 times leading up to o and just do 2x a day closer because those last few attempts we almost didnt do bcause it was enough!
im going to try to figure out posting my chart for u I might throw in the towel too if i dont as its been 9 months of this now!

Morning ladies, well we made our final attempt last night which i think was around O+21 going off pains and 1st +OPK. Our last 3 attempts were natural instead of splime which i feel nervous about but i went with gut feeling and what is done is done and we get a BFP and hopefully gets my egg.

Im just abit confused now with my OPK's, half way through i ran out but my new ones arrived just in time and they are ever so slightly different and now my OPKs have + for 3 days now??!! Making me doubt when i ov'd? We have gotten in 10 attempts but i really need to give DH a rest now.

Im our plan we BD'd through Ov but why do i still feel so nervous about this? even tho i dont believe in timing as DS3 was 4 day cut off.

GL to those making attemps and FX we see those BFP's rolling in xxx

[suregena]

HCG only 2. So... they had me come in to tell me to wait and see. Ugh. So that's that...

[PeonyPrincess]

Suregena, that is so frustrating. And they no doubt charged you for the privilege of telling you nothing helpful. Grrr.

[PeonyPrincess]

HappyLea, I think we are destined to question our sways. It is only natural. Just have to cross our fingers and hope for the best. GL!
