Jan 2016 TTC / Testing - New Year BFPs!

[Quinn31]

Tfahn Atomic told me a chemical wouldn't have much affect on my sway since I'm also swaying blue. I started bleeding about a week after af was due. I tried again this month and took clomid so hopefully it's okay but we don't have time to wait.

I'm only 4dpo and time is dragging!!!!! You would think I would feel confident after a cp but I've been reading a lot of stories about women who had a cp and then nothing. Plus I only had one good follicle. There's so much to think about and so much longer to wait!!

Quinn I've heard after a loss the body often puts out a really good quality egg. I'm pretty sure that's what happened after my first CP because I had the worst O pains of my life that cycle. I've got my fingers crossed so tight for you!! Really hope this is your month!

[tfahn]

Thanks Quinn. Yes Atomic also told me chemicals rarely have any effect on a sway and thought I should wait until my next period before starting again, she said that was nothing factual just a gut feeling since everything was so wonky this cycle. I too feel like I don't have time to wait, I will be 40 at the end of October so I know my chances for a BFP are lessening probably with every cycle I have.

I did take Clomid this month but since I was technically pregnant when I did take it I really don't know how that will effect my ovulation/eggs this month, if it will help it, hurt it, or have no effect at all. Also afraid that since it will be weeks since taking the clomid till I ovulate that I will produce super eggs or something and have crazy multiples! LOL I would be OK with twins, more then that I would have to quit my job that I love. But it seems it will be another week atleast till my HCG is under 2 and then I have to wait to ovulate. So if I wait till my next period before trying again that would be like 2 months away, or so it seems.

After my CP I TTC'd the very next cycle. You really only need to wait a cycle if there was some type of intervention like a D&C. Many docs recommend waiting a cycle or two but IMO that is more for allowing the mom to grieve than anything. If the body wasn't ready to support a preg it wouldn't O... obviously in the case of interventions it is a bit different but in a natural, uncomplicated loss (where the body deals with the loss on its own without assistance of meds or procedures), esp. a CP, I think it's safe to follow your heart. wait if you need the time to grieve, don't if you feel okay with TTC'ing right away. Women lose pregs all the time that they don't even know ever existed because they didn't test. The body knows how to handle it, and a natural, uncomplicated loss does no damage to the body (the heart yes, but not the body) so it is really up to you. (((HUGS)))

Thanks Twointow. I think the CP has me more determined to get a BFP now, mentally I think I am ready to TTC again.

Good luck this cycle , hope you get your rainbow baby.

Gagirl, thanks! Yes, unfortunately what you described could raise your temp artificially significantly. I have found it does so by at least .2 F. But everyone is different. In the future, you should temp before you go pee. I always temp after my biggest chunk of sleep.

Glad to hear a chemical shouldn't sway as I am going to try this cycle too & am also swaying blue. I am just waiting to o, thought I would have got a + opk yesterday, but nope. Fx it's today, I have more cm this morning then I have had so far this cycle so that's a good sign. Wanted to bd last night, but dh was too tired, he has been working long hours over the weekend & this week. 3 days since last bd(protected as DH is still keen to keep some shettles timing & not bd unprotected until +opk) so don't want to leave it any longer.

Tfahn - hoping your hcg levels go down quickly & O isn't too far away after that. It's sure been a crazy cycle for you.

Quinn - fx for you

Anyone know for the E4D pattern do we just pick a random day to start BDing? I'm on CD6 right now and AF is pretty much gone, just very light spotting.

Good luck this cycle Farmgirl!!

[tfahn]

Thanks Farm girl. I have been reading on the internet that your HCG doesn't always have to drop down to Zero before you ovulate again after a MC, some women did ovulate with low levels under 20. Guess I should start using OPK's daily again to make sure I don't miss it. The last day I checked was Sunday and the OPK was negative. My DH just switched to a new job on Monday and working longer hours so I feel you on DH being to tired. Will you do multiple attempts at +OPK or is DH against that too? Good luck this month.

You start once AF leaves. You can start if AF is light or if you have spotting. We always do this, but some people prefer to wait until AF is completely gone.

FX and GL to you!

BFN tonight at 12dpo. Stark white as usual. I was feeling awful, headache/nausea/feverish, thankfully much better now, but it prompted me to test. Plus food tastes weird today. Now I will try REALLY hard to wait until 15dpo.
