February 2ww

[yogi&booboo]

fivebabies,

I hope you get your bfp. I actually made the decision to stop. My dh is getting sicker by the day with his diabetes. I love him too much to loose him and is more important than ttc. I have planned to put him back in shape regardless of the outcome for sure. But id like to get on weight loss diet my self if no bfp. I've gained some weight and i need to stop gaining before my pant buttons start flying all over the place. Good luck! I think you still have a big chance to get your bfp

I'm so sorry to hear about your DH Hun! Good idea to care of him first. But maybe you'll get an oops.

And thanks! I really hope so too but I am not feeling very optimistic right now.

Yogi, diabetes can be a struggle.. But it's managable. My sister has an insulin-pump, it really helps her.
Good luck x

My AF arrived yesterday, just as i have always had it! ( first month coming off bcp)
My body just picks everything up as if i was'nt on bcp!
Ovulation right on cd 12, AF 13 days later. I'm very happy with this, it means all works as it should : )
Still cramps and boob-aches though.
So, a new round has started for me!

Fivebabies, i really hope this is it for you!
Don't worry, babies will arrive in their own time ; )
Hang in there, it will be okay.

Apologies for my grammar, my english isn't bad but i just miss some words and expressions as we all do when not speaking our' own' language, lol ( i'm from the Netherlands)
I have faith in is becoming pregnant with the baby of our dreams

[fivebabies]

Dragon~ So sorry to hear you're out this time around. Hopefully next round!!!

We're on CD16 today, but I'm not exactly sure when to start the DPO calc. I used the Ovuwatch this month to track my ovulation, and it says yesterday and today were my ovulation days, but I never did get a truly positive opk. The past 2 months I got an obviously positive opk on CD15, but this time the lines were never darker than the control line. I'm not sure if I just missed it or if I've been too hydrated on the blue sway, lol. Either way, I'm hoping I did ovulate like the watch is telling me and that it was just user error on the opks :-)

We missed our attempt on Tuesday as we were both just too exhausted, but did attempt last night and this morning, so hoping that timing works! Might attempt tonight or tomorrow as well, just in case, lol.

On a less happy front, I just got a call from my brother. He and his wife just miscarried :-( They were 9 weeks along, and it was their first. I know they are so bummed, and I wish there was more I could do for them! As much as I'm hoping we get pregnant this round, I will feel pretty lousy announcing a pregnancy right after that. Their doctor wants them to wait another month before trying again. They got pregnant in just 2 attempts last time, so hopefully it will happen quickly for them again! Fingers crossed!!

Welcome, crazycatcouple...sorry to hear about your brother and his wife. I'm sure they will be happy for you when you get your...you can also wait a little while to announce yours.

Yogi, I'm sorry to hear about your DH. Hopefully, this is your month, esp so that you guys can concentrate on his health and put the ttc stress behind you.

Dragonmother, I'm glad you are so optimistic about next month! I went off bcp in October and was excited when things went back to normal and I started ovulating.

GL to you fivebabies and sweetdream!!! The 2ww can be so draining...try to stay busy ladies. I've been doing good so far this month. It can be hard not to obsess or symptom watch but I've had ALL the symptoms the past 4 cycles so now I'm trying not to think twice about anything. I am checking my temps so that's helpful. I wish I wouldve done that my last 4 cycles...trying not to get obsessive though. I'm on 6dpo. One more week to go.

[crazycatcouple]

I see a lot of you ladies talking about checking your temps. I know how it works to pinpoint ovulation, but can you also see a pregnancy that way?

[MIka1104]

From what I understand you can. If your temps stay up, usually that means a BFP is on the way. I started temping last month and I never saw an IB dip and my temps started going down a day before AF appeared.

[sweetdream]

Still no AF. but again a BFN. I Will prolly get AF today. I forgot how crazy I Could get by symptoms. I feel like getting my period since yesterday morning. Still nothing. I'm comming back with a bigger respond later

[ltester]

Sweetdream, I totally understand that feeling of waiting for AF (even a day late can feel interminable!) and still getting bfns. I hope this is your month! I am back in the 2ww for likely the last time. I've done everything I could (exercise, LE diet, clomid) but really am limited by whether my DH has viable swimmers. He's taken vitamins for eight months and clomid for three to boost T levels, so we will just have to see. It is my own fault for not being more assertive about what I wanted when he had a vasectomy done--the reversal just might have not worked. I've said to myself that if it doesn't happen this month, it is just not meant to be, but I hope I can convince my heart of that if I get a bfn. Also, I've spent also most two years now, planning and preparing for this (with a whole lot of disappointment mixed in!) and I don't know how to put it behind me if it doesn't work. So, fingers crossed, and two weeks-1 day to wait!
