CALLING ALL WOMEN OF STRENGTH!!!!

A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.
A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.
A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.
A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.
A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.
A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

Hi ladies! I got my +opk on Thursday (CD 14) and another one on Friday! So according to my tracker, I'm 2 dpo today, although I really think it's 3dpo b/c I didn't feel any O pains past Friday. Oh well, at least I'm in my 2ww! :) We bd'd Wed thru Fri so we'll see! I'm thinking I may follow bfromthed and have a progesterone test done just to make sure?? Although I'm pretty sure b/c I'm not having O pains at all anymore, and that's my key sign... I'll probably still have it checked though! lol!
Bfromthed- I'm sure if you would've waited one more day it would've been more accurate, and would've showed that you did in fact O! I would call and double check with your Dr. Maybe you can have another one done just to reassure yourself! :)

Dnikki- Mommyin10 texted me that too! That's SO gross! Uugh!! I put Addy on Enfamil and seems to be doing great with it! Hopefully Peyton will adapt ok too! :) Lucky you, wish I had some time off from work too! ;)

Krichar- Yayyy!! Look at you! I LOVE how positive you are! :) I agree, this IS your cycle!!! :) Good luck!!!!

Keyan: Nice to hear from you! Although we did message on FB lol :-) I have not had any experiences with a biopsy. I know what you mean about losing an ovary. I lost 1/2 of my right one when I was 18 from one. I hope it won't give you any problems and that the biopsy comes out clean. When is the biopsy? Good Luck!

Luvkayln: Oh my, laundry....!!! I had been fighting a migraine from last Friday until Tuesday...so laundry didn't really get done lol! I had a lot of catch up to do! Work went okay, just very tiring.

Bfromthed: Not sure about the progesterone. Can you call and ask them?

AFM: This whole formula recall thing is disgusting. Similac recalled basicaly al their powder formula b/c it may contain beetle as in bug parts and their larvae. Similac also said it's not dangerous but could cause GI upset and problems. That's DISGUSTING!! Of course Peyton was on Similac. I had  to up and switch her b/c her formula was in the recall. I compared between Enfamil and Up & Up (Target brand) and Target brand was the closest to what she was on. We'll see. I hope it doesn't upset her tummy. My migraine/headache is finally gone it seems (knock on wood) - that was the longest 4 days I swear!!! Anyone take seasonique before? My OB put me on it and it's been 3months so now I'm supposed to start my cycle. Well I'm 4 days after the last active pill and I haven't started yet. I took a test this morning and it was negative so I know I'm not p/g. I just don't know what's going on. And I have soooo much abd. discomfort! I'm sure it's from the endo though. Anyways lol.....Other than all that things have been pretty good here! I did hear from Mommyin10 today  - she texted me about the recall. They are all doing well and she's really busy!
Well I hope everyone has a great day - I have one more day of work tomorrow until I am off for a whoooooooooolllllllllllleeeeee wwwwwweeeeeeekkkkk!! I can't wait can ya tell lol?!

Had progesterone checked today (1 day early because I could not make appt tomorrow) it came back at 9.3....I have read it needs to be 10 on a non medicated cycle to show ovulation? Not sure if it would have changed if I had waited til tomorrow but thats what it is...so now we just wait for af....

Hi ladies! CD 14 today, I know my +opk is right around the corner! :) Been having O pains (I always get "gearing up to ovulate" pains! Haha! :) and my cm is getting more watery/egg white these past couple days! Getting excited!!! :) I'm hoping for my + today or tomorrow! Wish us luck! ;)

sbumblebeeo- I know with me, I started breastfeeding less and AF returned while I was actually still nursing. I only had the one cycle, and then got pregnant again. I know normally they say AF returnes 6-8 weeks after stopping nursing. I'm sure your body will start regulating itself. If it makes you feel better though, call your Dr. and see what they say! I really think it'll start in the next week or so though! :) I'll be thinking about your DH on Oct. 7th! How exciting you can start ttc'ing again then! I think it's awesome they we're trying again! It's exciting!!! :)

Keyan- Hey stranger!! We've missed you! :) Totally understand the needeed break, but we're glad you're back and ready to jump back into ttc'ing!!! That's exciting you went and saw an RE and you're going to do iui! What type of meds do you plan on taking? I don't blame you to saying NO to the surgery! That's great your RE agrees, as long as it doesn't cause any trouble for you. When do you think you'll have your endometrium biopsy? What do that entail? Sorry, I've never had one or I would give you my experience with it!

bfromthed- Saw your status! I'm sure you do O, but the reassurance will be nice! :) I'm praying for the natural cycle worked! :)

Krichar- That's awesome!! I'm so excited for you! :) Yep, no halloween party for you missy! But you're right, totally worth it!!!! :) Good luck!!

Mommyin10- Miss you!!! Check in soon, k? :)

Dnikki- Thanks for doing an awesome job keeping the thread going! Haha, you crack me up though! You sound like me yesterday and last Sunday (days off). All I did was laundry! :) Hope you had a good night at work!!

Hi ....long time....sorry I've been away, been busy and needed some space...you all know what that is like....

anyway...I have an endometrioma...4cm...GYN wants to do surgery, of course I said NO, because I know I will loose part of the ovary so I insisted on going to an RE and we did go, and he's not going to do anything with the Endometrioma for now, as long as it doesn't cause any trouble. we are also starting treament, IUI, but before that I need to get an endometrium biospy.

Please, share your endometrium biopsy experience with me, how much did it hurt, recovery, bleeding, etc. etc. I am used to pain, that's normal for me, but I just want to know what to expect so that I can prepare mentally! Thanks in andvance for your help!!

Dnikki: I am CD 19, thanks for keep up with the thread!
Mommyin10: miss you!
Luvkayln: good luck TTCing! you will have another baby in your arms before you know it!
Guesito and Rachjas: I am so happy for you!! you guys have been blessed!!

Shelby is almost 6 months old and I stopped breastfeeding at 4 months and still no cycle has returned.  I had really hoped that having a baby would help regulate me but it's not looking like it at all.  :(  DH and I are talking about having another baby but not until his surgery is done.  October 7th is the big day.  Should I call the doctor about no period or just let it go?

Our 11 week appt went great.. Baby was measuring perfect once again moving around super cute!  C-Section will be scheduled for last week of March god willing unless we go into labor before. Also today they found a vanishing twin which made me sad but I trust god had a plan for us and we are just happy one made it. At first she was like wait there's 2!  My heart almost dropped, but then they realized the sac was empty.

Good morning ladies! :)

My d&c check up went well! Everything is healing perfectly! Our results from the lab stated that our m/c was normal, which makes me feel better. I am CD 11 today and have been having pain on both sides, so I know I'm gearing up to O! :)

Bfromthed- I was just getting ready to say that everyone's body reacts differently to a d&c, and then I read that you got a +opk! Yay!!! :) So glad to hear you are healing, and I'm sure seeing that +opk just put a big smile on your face! :)

Guesito- Good luck on your u/s today!! I'm glad your Dr is taking care of you! I was spoiled in that way with my Dr too, since I expressed my concerns about Kayln. Can't wait for an update! :)

Dnikki- Thanks! I'm sure that's what it is too! I talked to my Dr about it on Friday, and she said just keep an eye on the next couple cycles. I just want to make sure I'm O'ing, and not having shorter and shorter cycles. My Dr believes it's my body trying to get back to normal too. Wow, Peyton has 2 teeth now?! So does Addy! lol! I know, I will post pics, I promise!! Addy is getting so big, you guys need to see her! :) Oh, I'm CD 11. :) Hope you start feeling better soon!

I hope I got everyone's update's right!

Guesito: She is trying to crawl right now - she can go backwards, just not forwards lol!!! I gave her a little nibble of mashed potatoes tonight and she gave me this wierd look and then a big toothy smile lol! Priceless :-) It must have really been the weekend for headaches. Mine just went away (not completely, I still feel a nagging of it) - I've had it since Friday. Glad you are feeling better! What  a cute way to spill the beans!!! I bet everyone was so happy! Let us know how tomorrow goes!

Bfromthed: Congrats on the +OPK! Are you guys going to try this month or wait until next cycle? Maybe message Luvkayln about getting regulated? I'm sure it's just taking some time to get to normal. That's a long process to get through. I'm glad you are doing better.

Trh: How are you doing? 15wks!!! Congrats!!!

Hope everyone is doing well!! I'm exhausted - Been dealing with a migraine then to a headache, migraine again down to headache and now just a nagging ache since Friday lol....not fun. I'm going to try to get some extra zzz's tonight but I doubt that'll happen. I've got to be up at 6 then on the road by 730. My knee has been acting up so I finally am able to get into my ortho doc....anyways, have a good night everyone!!!
