New 2 Week Wait 4/26/09

Ok ladies. I can't seem to find the other thread! This is for all of those ladies who are currently on their legendary 2 week wait! Anyone who has questions, comments, or symptoms, please feel free to post them here! Remember: We are all in this together! Baby dust to all!

[isthisnormal]

Good luck ladies! I'm sending lots of baby dust your way!

[babybemine]

WOOOHOOOOOO 2ww!! I'm in, I'm in!!

[nickieb85]

Yay! Thanks so much for the baby dust***
And babybemine, like I said, girlie we are in this together!

[nickieb85]

I definitely Od! My temp is way higher than it normally is! YAY!

[babybemine]

Just took another opk, still surging??? Will def O sometime tonight. Wish he wasn't at work, so we could get another try in.  Let's hope those couple of times got it....grrrrr. the 2ww. Yeah the 2ww

[gokuangel]

I'm hoping im in! I have had cramps for like 4 days and my temps have been high past 3 days but only a speck of CM but still hoping!! Fingers crossed for me!!

[nickieb85]

My fingers are definitely crossed for all of us! My surge is over and I ovulated today so it was really a big relief for me!  Yeah for the 2 Week Wait! I can't wait! These two weeks are brutal and my husband is tired of having sex! Can you believe it? LOL! We have had a lot of the last 5 days though! I am happy that we got it all in before the big O! I love it! Lots of baby dust to all of us! THIS IS SO BRUTAL!

[babybemine]

Just retested on my opk. I OFFICIALLY OVULATED.  I'm officially in my 2ww.  We are def in this 2ww together girlie.  Add me as a pal, so we can keep in touch.  

[nickieb85]

Okey Dokey I definitely added you! I am so excited about the 2 week wait but it is such a long time! I really hope that it goes fast (although I am sure I won't lol) and I hope we both get our BFP's this month!

[babybemine]

We will have to do one new thing everyday. Wait. I know. Let's pass our time away by reading a novel together....an online bookclub for the 2ww.  You pick. I will read anything.

[babybemine]

I need someone to pact with me NOT to POAS until 12dpo. Otherwise, it'll be like a diet, and I will break.  BABY DUST!!!!

[Jenn102707]

Congrats to all on the 2WW. I am 10DPO and according to my cycles I should be seeing AF tomorrow.  Hope she stays away!!!! My temps have been going higher the last few days. This morning I was 98.2 and last cycle I never even went near 98.0 so I have my fingers and toes crossed. The first few days PO my temps were 97.7 consistently and the last three or four days it has been going higher.The only thing is I have no other symptoms, except for majorly bloated the last week or so.  I would love to say that my lower back pain was a symptom but I have some herniated discs so I can't say that was a symptom.  My breasts are not sore either. Sometimes they feel weird but then it goes away. I think if I am PG maybe my symptoms are coming late because my luteal phase runs about 11-12 days. What you do all think? Also, do you have to have implantation bleeding? Any advice would be appreciated! BABY DUST TO US ALL!!!!

[nickieb85]

Well I don't know what is going on with me... my temp today are lower than than they were yesterday... I just don't know if it hasn't kicked in yet but I wanted to know how long it has taken you girls to see results on your BBT... I am very concerned because earlier this month I had the same thing happen and didn't ovulate. I go back to the doc on Wed and hopefully they will be put on provera and then clomid. I just don't know what to do! As for the online novel I will have to look into that! But that sounds like an awesome idea!

[gokuangel]

I love the baby dust thing ladies i do but i saw a blinkie and it say forget the baby dust i need baby cement!! LOL!! It was very funny!!

[babybemine]

Here I am, 1DPO. Only 11 more days to go before I can test. I don't know why, but today I got so disheartened.  Just feeling like we didn't make a little lovey this month.  I keep thinking, 'we didn't bd enough during the surge' or 'maybe he didn't ej. far enough in me' or........... need I say more? These past eight months have me feeling as if it will never happen. This is going to be one hell of a long 11 days until I POAS....

[Jenn102707]

Ok, so I am 11DPO and according to last cycle I got AF on 11DPO and my temp dropped significantly.  However, today my temp was still 98.2 and no period as of yet (8:00 a.m.).  I did take HPT and it came out negative, but I am still staying optimistic. Of course, there always is tomorrow.  Am I correct in saying that the luteal phase is usually always the same or within a day? BABY DUST TO US ALL!!!

[nickieb85]

Yes ladies these two week waits are brutal! I like the baby cement idea! I am headed to the doctor tomorrow morning to make sure in fact that I did ovulate and it wasn't false this time. I couldn't take my temp this morning because I tossed and turned all night and was sick (yacking) twice this morning. I knew my temp would be way off but I am still hopeful. I will know for sure tomorrow what I have to do.
babybemine: where would you go to find an online novel??? I need something to do before I go crazy! I know it is hard to not get discouraged over the course of two weeks but all of us only have 22-25% of conceiving each cycle (22% if you baby dance every other day and 25% if you do it everyday that you are fertile). The odds don't look too good for us that have been trying for the upward of 9 or 10 months... Guess what that means...it means that we should be getting our little bean soon :) It will all be worth it when you get your BFP!

[gokuangel]

GL every1 hang in there!
Babybe..-You need the blinkie i saw that say "Can I POAS already"
lol they have so many i was googling them not too long ago so i could make a page on two week wait its a slow site but i love making the page!

[Limonada]

Can't wait to be back on the 2WW with you ladies!!!  After this weekend, I will be :-)

Babydust to everyone!! :-)  

[babybemine]

2DPO. Still feeling like I'm wasting my time.  Have to stop that. I know.

[nickieb85]

Ahhhh dont get too down on yourself. Like I said, it is totally just the timing. I have noticed, and even told DH, I feel sooooo inadequate. I have never had self esteem issues before but this is starting to get to me. I feel like this is really the one thing that I should be able to do and for some reason my body is fighting me. I can't stand it! I am worried what is going to have to happen at my doctor's appointment tomorrow and I feel like I am going to have to get on meds to make this work and the provera makes me crazy so I am afraid that the Clomid is going to make me a crazy woman. LOL! We will all do whatever we have do to get our little beans and we are all here to support one another. I am sorry that you are feeling this. This is our 10th month and I feel the exact same way. No matter how much sex we have it seems to just not happen.... Don't give up...

[babybemine]

And I don't know why I'm thinking this way. It is only 2DPO!!!
Just slap me. lol

[nickieb85]

LOL. I know how you feel. I was sick this morning so I am not even sure if I ovulated or not bc I was sick this morning and was tossing and turning last night! I go to the doc's tomorrow and I am afraid that it is not going to turn out in my favor. You are right! It is only dpo 2 and we won't give up! Baby Cement lol to you and me both!

[gokuangel]

Dont get hard on urselves guys! I do it too especially when i get symptoms i'm always like will they continue will they worse will they dissappear? Its always a question lol!! I got nipple sensitivity right now which i hate cus i know thats a big symptom and im sure it will stop soon which also ***** but doesnt!!
Ok i need a TMI question answered who wants to volunteer plz? I'm embarrasing you and me but here goes does any1 else have problems going #2 during the 2WW? I swear its the only time i get it and it drives me NUTS!! LOL!!
Baby cement guys!!

[gillianl]

I am now currently on CD 14 and feeling a little crampy this morning so hopefully tonight will be my night and i will join the rest of you lovely ladies in the 2ww i'm hoping this is my month as i have been ttc for the past 17months with no luck fingers crossed and good luck to everyone else ttc and in the 2ww!!

[k4d]

i also have been trying for the past 17 months and i just feel that its not for me and then i think no it will happen when the time is right but i am due my period on 3rd of may and usually by no wi have sore boobs but 6 days b4 i am due and still none but my nipples are sticking out like football studs lol and they are not usually like that and i usually eat my weight in chocolate at this point but i just feel like i am forsing my food down at the moment so i am hoping that these are signs that maybe just MAYBE this month is "THE RIGHT TIME" but lots and lots and LOTS of babydust 2 all

[k4d]

oh and 1 other thing i am kinda new 2 this site so could someone plz tell me what all the short letters mean i no some but others just stomp me lol thanks

[Jenn102707]

I guess I will volunteer to answer your question....I have never noticed it before but this 2WW has been really hard for me to go #2 and I have felt VERY bloated since ovulation.  I look like I am at least 4-5 months pregnant some days. I mean I am kind of a big girl to begin with, but never thought I looked pregnant before. LOL I actually had someone ask me when I was due (of course I was at a baby expo with an expecting friend, so I am hoping she wasn't lying when she told me she asked that because she just assumed I was expecting since I was at the expo). LOL Its crazy.  I sometimes have problems with the whole #2 thing but this is ridiculous. I am still able to go but sometimes it is every other day or it is extremely hard to do. I actually took a laxative last weekend to help with it and the bloating but it only helped for one day. Good Luck to you! I like that whole Baby Cement thing, so I wish everyone tons of BABY CEMENT!

[selaiwa]

Hello Ladies, my name is Debbie and I am starting the tww today. Is anyone going to hpt on Mother's Day Sunday, May 9?  

[selaiwa]

Sorry, Mother's Day is the 10th .

[gokuangel]

Thnx Jen!! It's the same for me too I had to take the laxative i was super bloated and looked PG already too! But yep 1 day it worked and now nothing! I take fish oil and vitex so i usually dont have problems with this but it seems the past 2 cycles the  2WW it has got to me!
K4D-LOL! footbal studs? That's a new one!! Very funny! Mine are doing the same thing right now and they usually only do that if im cold and its not cold in TX right now!!

[nickieb85]

Ok ladies. I went to the doctors today. I have had a problem ovulating the last four months and I am moving to Las  Vegas and also have to have a leep done on May 12th. I took my temp chart to him and he said not to even worry about it because everyone is different and it might not work for me. I am supposed to be dpo 3 today so I will definitely be testing around mother's day! I am hoping that my body straightened itself out but I won't be sure until they do more blood work on the 12th... I am done with temping and opks (per my docs advice) I am just going to sit it out and wait... I hope we all get our mother's day surprises!

[Kt2222]

Hey I was wondering when the earliest pregnancy symptoms appear, I am 5 day post-ovulation and very curious...

[nickieb85]

It is different for every woman and it usually doesn't happen til after implantation (6-12 days) but they can be confused with pms signs too. I am dpo 3 and with all of the confusion that I feel after my doctor's appointment I hope I don't get any signs.

[babybemine]

3DPO. Was so busy today I barely had time to create symptoms in my mind. lol.
Off to bed tonight....  I think I will also test Mother's Day. Wouldn't that be super!!!!!

[Jenn102707]

I am 13dpo and took a HPT last night and it came up negative.  My temps have dropped but not past coverline, so I am not sure what that means. I think AF is creeping up on me that lil witch! But I am trying to stay positive but is so hard. I was due for my period about 3 days ago and like many I am not sure if I am having PMS symptoms or pregnancy symptoms.  This whole TTC thing is so confusing! UGH! I wish everyone much good luck and best wishes and I am keeping my fingers, toes, and eyes crossed for us all!

[nickieb85]

I think we all need baby cement! Somethings gotta give (dpo4 I hope)

[Jenn102707]

I think I may be out of it this month.  I just noticed VERY light pink discharge so I think AF is about to attack!  I think I am going to call and make an appointment to get blood work done to see if I even ovulate. How frustrating!

[nickieb85]

Hey I am there with you. I won't even get that chance until they do my leep on may 12th. I am going to call now to see if they won't see me next week for a blood work just to see if I ovulated. The worst fear in my mind is that I did ovulate and did get pregnant and they do the leep and it causes complications with the pregnancy (that would be my luck) I don't want to put it at risk if it is not necessary... these things make me so nervous.

[babybemine]

4 DPO and very tender BB's. Also have developed a runny nose and cough. Perfect time to feel like ****.  How many DPO are you all going to test????

[ladybug82]

13dpo here THIS is frustrating ahhhhhh ..... no af sympts but knowing that WITCH she is liek a "NINJA" and comes out of no where .. have me in your prayers at least a lil i dont think i have enough strength to cont'..

TIGHT HUGS

*:O)erika

[nickieb85]

I have the same problem. I have a stuffy nose and and sore throat and both my dh and son are sick. I thought maybe that I wouldn't get sick since they have both been sick for the last week and I had no problems. This morning I woke up with a stuffy nose and cough. I am hopefully going to get to go to the doc's next week to have my levels checked... I planned on testing on the 7 or 8th if the doctor has the news that I actually ovulated.

Ladybug82 I feel the same as you. I am in my 10 cycle almost the 11th cycle. It is frustrating for me too because I am moving in 2 weeks and my doc didn't want to start Provera or Clomid (which was recommended from my rnp) and I am so fed up with the run around that I just want to give up... I haven't ovulated in the last 4 months by myself and my doc told me that it was normal! Can you believe that?

[nickieb85]

So I am dpo 5 today (i think if I even ovulated) and I talked to my doctor's office and today and they wanted to wait until day 35 (sunday) and she told me to call her monday and tell her if I have started my period or not and if not they would do a blood test in the office to see if I am pregnant. If not they are going to start me on provera again. Yuck I hate that stuff.

[NicoleW09]

Could it be possible that we are worrying ourselves to death over how many DPO we are and whether or not we O'd? Ever since DH and I decided we were going to ttc I feel like I've been freaking out over making sure we BD'd at the right time and that I chart my temps and CM. I'm 6 DPO right now, and I'm feeling bummed out. I don't want to be disappointed this month. I have noticed that I have an alot of white, creamy cm, and I never have white cm, and after o I'm usually dry. It doesn't make sense to me. And I woke up this morning with a terrible headache and I was nauseated. I feel like its hopeless. I hate the tww.

[nickieb85]

Yeah I know it is very depressing. I don't even take my temp anymore because my doctor told me to quit bc he doesn't think that it is sufficient in telling me whether I ovulated or not. I don't understand how we get so worked up after all of this 2 week wait stuff... We put things into our own heads that this is the only thing that is important to us and we want it so badly. Your head can make your body do strange things... Let's try to relax and enjoy our times with our husbands (I know its easier said than done :) but let's try anyways!

[babybemine]

5 dpo. Really sore
(.)(.) and feel zzzzzzzzzzzz and yuck. Swine flu or baby.  You pick. lol

[NicoleW09]

I think I must be about to start af or something. I woke up with sore boobs, only they were sore on the outside, then as the day progressed they got sore everywhere. And now im having af like cramps and I got nauseated after breakfast this morning and had a headache. I ended up taking a long nap. lol. I guess, I should just prepare since it seems like she's coming, but I'm wondering why it would be a week early, its strange.

Babybemine: I dont think swine flu gives you sore (.)(.) lol.

[nickieb85]

I feel both of your pain believe me. I have felt yucky all day and slightly nauseated and I am not sure if it is the cold or what it is. I am looking forward to my blood test on monday....I have noticed that I am way more tired now a days too. I am definitely bloated and headaches for a least most of the day. I don't really know how likely it is but I am definitely waiting anxiously.

[Jenn102707]

I am out of the running this cycle. Maybe next time! Good luck to the rest of you! I will be hoping for BFP for you all!

[nickieb85]

Thanks so much I am sure we could all use it. I am on DPO 6 or 7 and I am having a few symptoms. Headaches, dizziness, and bloated. I am hoping for the best and I am having a blood test done Monday and hope that they will be able to tell me something :)

[babybemine]

I MAY VERY WELL BARF.  Seriously.....

[nickieb85]

I'm right there with you! I thought I was totally going to yack last night after I ate. I had to go to walmart this morning and I felt that way again. I just wanted to sit down I was so dizzy. I had this happen in the beginning of my first pregnancy without me realizing what was causing it so I am keeping my fingers crossed for good news on Monday :)

[Limonada]

It seems to me like you're ALL having very promising pregnancy symptoms - I have a feeling that some BFPs are coming :))

I'm on CD 13.....BD'd on CD 11 (internet O calculator said that would be a fertile day..??  Is that true?  I mean I thought that sperm could only live 48 hours max??  

Will BD again today and Monday and Wednesday, doing the every other day thing....I promised myself that, whatever happens, I won't test unless I'm past the day that AF is due...I know I haven't been trying as long as some of you ladies, but I really want to try to make myself "oblivious", you know?  Like when I was pg. with DS and didn't know until AF was 2 weeks late........

[nickieb85]

Yeah they do sound like promising symptoms but I am not really trying to psyche myself out about it. My doc told me that to assume that sperm only lives for 48 hours. Every other day you have a 22% chance of conceiving and 25% if you baby dance every day that you are fertile. My doctor told me that 2 days before you ovulate and 2 days after, but what I have read you're supposed to "bd" for the 5 days before you ovulate and 1 day after. It is just a chance! We like to gamble don't we? LOL!

[NicoleW09]

I am so tired and bloated (7 DPO). I have a headache that wont stop and my cramps have gone away. After I ate lunch I got so queasy. I really hope some BFP's are coming our way. How's everyone feeling?

[ladybug82]

i am out GIRLIES ... the witch got here at 8:36am i hate her.. she brought along the crampy twins gosh i just feel so sickk .... monday i go in for the start of my IUI  HERE WE GO .. to another painful stressful, scarey journey .. much luck to all you that are still in   hugs


*:O( ERIKA

[nickieb85]

I am also on dpo 7 and am bloated and kinda dizzy... I feel queasy and hot all the time. I had some minor cramps yesterday! I am hoping for a big fat positive sometime this week! I go to the doctor on Monday (although I am thinking of rescheduling it to see if it helps with the dpo bc I am afraid that it won't show positive on dpo 9)... Maybe they will do more than one for me :)

[NicoleW09]

hmm...idk, maybe you should reschedule until you're dpo 12 or so. Then again, a beta can detect a slight rise in your hormone levels. Or you could reschedule for right before af is due. I'm not really dizzy, but I have been feeling what I can only describe as a hot flash, and then I get super nauseated and feel like I'm going to pass out or something. lol. And, my cramps are back...they've been pretty off an on. I'm not so sure what to think about it really, if this is my month it will be my first pregnancy. Let me know what your blood test says!

[NicoleW09]

Oh yeah, my cm has been all over the place the last few days. Yesterday and today its been ewcm again. Before that it was white and watery. I normally dry up right after o, so I thought it was kinda odd. I had ewcm during o too, it was just much thicker and more frequent then what I have now.

[nickieb85]

Yeah mine is the same way. I have had problems ovulating for the last 4 months so I am not sure what is normal for me anymore. I am going to call on Monday and talk to the nurse and see what she says would be the best for me to wait or not... It will definitely be the end of the week at least. I am excited but I don't know if I am really straightened out or not. I have had plenty of creamy cm here lately and I know that it should be that way in the beginning of pregnancy... so I am hopeful!

[nickieb85]

So a weird bit of TMI... I have had a bunch of crcm (sorry) and I just went to the potty and on my pantyliner the cm has gotten darker. This is something that has never happened to me and I am not sure if it is because of early pregnancy or if it is just my hormones acting up! LOL! Only time will tell...

[cmoretti]

I am now in that dreaded tww! Got the big temp jump today.

[babybemine]

7DPO. Mild cramps last night. Slept horribly. Saw a temp dip today. WHO KNOWS. Still preggers in right boob only.  What is THAT all about??? Nothing special to report..... except I am getting very anxious to POAS!!!!!
Baby dust loves!!!

[nickieb85]

I am feeling the same way about all of it! I am supposed to go to the doctor tomorrow but I am concerned about being only 9 dpo tomorrow that it won't show that early! I am going to ask the nurse to see if she thinks that it will show or not.
babybemine: That is odd (only preggers in your right boob :) I had some mild cramps yesterday also and I feel nauseous this morning too. Couldn't finish my breakfast this morning. My doc told me not to temp but I did anyways and it was definitely higher than it usually is so I am hopeful that I actually did O last weekend so I hope that my body has worked itself out! Only time will tell for all of us!

[NicoleW09]

Only preggers in your right boob...hmm. lol. That's very interesting. We're all right around the same day past o. My boobs have felt heavy and just slightly sore. maybe thats a good sign? lol.

nickieb85: I think it should be fine if you have already implanted. I'd definitely ask your nurse about it though. Hopefully your body is back to normal now so you can get your bfp.

My cousin and I are both ttc and we are both taking prenatal vitamins everyday after our dr's reccomended that we do. I didnt take one the day before yesterday, and all day I felt terrible. I had a headache that wouldnt go away, I just felt awful. I took tylenol and it didn't touch my headache, last night I took my prenatal vitamin and within twenty minutes my headache was gone. Isn't that weird?

I'm basically feeling the same today...crappy.

[nickieb85]

Yeah I hope my body is back to normal. I think that when you take prenatals for along time (I've been taking them for the last 3 months) your body gets used to what the vitamins are doing for you... The extra iron and vitamins are good for you :) Are you taking folic acid too? I am taking prenatals, folic acid, 81 mg aspirin, and Omega 3 fish oil... I feel much better when I take all of them like I am supposed to :) Maybe it's a mental thing :)

[NicoleW09]

I think I'm taking nature made (the bottle is upstairs. lol) and it has like 800mcg of folic acid, so I haven't been taking my folic acid with it (its also 800) and i'd hate to over do it. lol. I just started taking them regularly this month and I'm hoping it makes a difference. The vitamin certainly helped me feel better as far as my headache. Today, I basically feel like I did yesterday. I'm feeling kinda stupid because I just know that this month is probably going to be another disappointment. I suppose you can say I'm having a terrible case of the baby blues. We also bd'd like everyday the week I ovulated, but i feel like it's hopeless and that my symptoms are menstrual.

[gokuangel]

I need help ladies! I'm not due for AF for like 4 or 5 days im already spotting! This cant be good! What should i do? I havent started AF this early in i dont know when!! Yikes! It's bright red so im sure that means i out of the game!! Am I jacked or there is something i could do?

[nickieb85]

gokuangel: AHHHHH sounds like you are just starting early unless it is implantation bleeding... I'm not quite sure but if it gets worse than it is AF if it is spotting only then maybe it's implantation bleeding! Its always a sit and wait game!

NicoleW09: Don't get too down on yourself! I have been in this game for almost 11 months (this is my 10th cycle) and to no avail. I've been trying to do the right things also and sometimes it just seems like it isn't enough! I am right there with you no worries... I am almost to my limit with my docs here in TX and will be moving to Las Vegas Nevada and they have a great fertility clinic there so if nothing else by the end of this month I will have to take that step... I am ready to do whatever it takes to get my little bean!

[NicoleW09]

I know I don't need to be down on myself, especially this soon in the game. I just know that the longer it takes to get pregnant the more I feel like I have disappointed DH. I truly feel like I have a higher possibility this month than any other month we have tried, I just don't want to get him worked up if I'm not. I don't want to get myself worked up in case I'm not. It just *****. lol!

Sticky beans and baby cement to us all! We're still in until af shows! Hope she stays away!!!

[nickieb85]

Hey girlie! I feel the same way about disappointing DH. I was supposed to go to to the doc's today but all the nurse was going to do was a urine test and since I am only dpo 9 I am afraid that if was negative it might not be the correct result. They won't do a blood test for some reason... So I am just going to wait it out and test again on Wed and then on Friday then if it is negative I will let them give me the Provera when I go for my leep next Tuesday... I don't know if it is the best thing or not but I am trying to stay positive!

[gokuangel]

Well I guess I did not O or anything this past month im full on AF and 4 days early this just *****! I just hope i didnt actually get PG and did something to mess it up!!
GL Ladies!! SSBD!

[NicoleW09]

So, you're going to test 11 and 13 dpo? Af is supposed to come friday or saturday for me. I'm pretty sure it's saturday though. I've been starting on the eighth of the month the past two months. I've noticed some slight spotting from the fourth until the day I start. Today is the fourth...no spotting or cramping. In fact, my cramping has gone away, I'm just extremely tired, having headaches, nausea in the morning, loss of appetite, my boobs are slightly sore and look and feel bigger (only slightly), and my cm is the same. As far as spotting and cramping, I don't feel menstrual, but I know that all of the other symptoms probably are. I don't know what to expect really, I don't have anything to base it off of.

Yeah, I think today would have been too soon to get an accurate result unless you were off on the day that you ovulated. I looked up the leep procedure since I've never had one done, it seems painful. Stay positive, babe. you have a week until then, anything is possible! I'll be hoping for a nice bfp for you!! Let me know how testing goes! I'll probably be testing around then as well.

[NicoleW09]

Wow, four days early? I'm really sorry that af showed her ugly head this month. :( Don't beat yourself up about it. You did everything within your power, if you were pg then it's not your fault. I have a few days before I know whether or not af is coming, it's nice to have a cycle buddy. we just need to stay positive. There's always next month, and bd'ing is always nice! lol.

[britt97]

Hi, I am due for my period in the next couple days. I have been having cramps for the past couple days back aches, a lil sore brest and very moody. i have my fingers cross.

[nickieb85]

Yeah I am glad that I decided to wait to go to the doctor's until Friday or Monday and at the very latest before I have surgery on the 12th. It might be impossible but I would rather be absolutely sure, without a doubt, that I am not pregnant. Its just to me that seems the right thing to do. It ***** that PMS and pregnancy symptoms resemble each other so severely. I have my fingers and toes crossed for all of us! I hope at least one of us gets our BFP this week/month!

My fingers and toes are crossed for all of us. Hopefully this is our month! I think you made the right decision about waiting to go to the doctor, it's better to be absolutely certain than to not know for sure, and I'm sure you would have stressed yourself out about it. It's not like any of us need any added stress factors. It does stink that pregnancy symptoms are basically the same as pms. I had a weird stabbing pain in my right side by my ovary...but no spotting or af. who knows? Hope this is our month. How are you feeling?

[nickieb85]

im doing pretty good... feeling good. A little nauseous at times but seemingly ok. I am really hoping that I ovulated on my own this month at least. If not I already have a doctor in Las Vegas that is more than willing to help me with my fertility problems. I am taking this very seriously and I am really excited to get along with all of this stuff because I am young and seemingly healthy so this concerns me that I am having these kind of problems, but it will get better I am sure. My husband let me adopt a Puggle puppy today and we are adding to our happy little family regardless so I am very excited! He is a cutey named Mason and he is red and white and only five weeks old! He is such a sweetie and beautiful. I am starting to feel better about the whole situation!

I feel like this is our month. My DH said he had a dream that we were going to conceive this month so hopefully that is a sign.  He is going on the 12th to get SA and ironically I am going to see my gyno on that same day to get me set up for some blood work. Praying that it just hasn't been our time and not something else! Wish me luck!
BABY DUST TO YOU ALL and can't wait to join the 2WW club again!

[NicoleW09]

Aw...a puppy?!! DH won't let me have a puppy, we just have a kitty. It's good to get your mind off of fertility issues. It would be very frustrating to be so young and have so many problems. I'm glad that you have a doctor that is willing to figure out what's going on with your body and help fix it. I'm anxious for it to be friday, I'm so beyond ready for us to get our bfp.

8 DPO. Boobs sore as all hell, more slight twingy cramping today. CM....Tons of energy today, which is sooo not me.
Sticky baby gumdrops, girls..
Doc Thursday. Should I beg for a blood test???

[gillianl]

well i thought i was ovulating 29th April turns out i could have been ovulating 2nd May, had some cramping thursday and friday of last week so we tried on sat night if you get what i mean. Really hoping i've done it this month as i think i've miscalculated my ovulation days every other month i've been trying to early.

How are all you ladies getting on any signs or symptoms?  any positive tests as yet?

[nickieb85]

Yes I adopted a little cutie named Mason. He is going to be my new baby. He is precious. He'll only weigh a pound or so when I get him and I am so excited. I have decided to hold off on the Provera even if they give it to me. I am starting to think that I really didn't ovulate at all last month so there is really nothing for me to be waiting on but I am looking forward to my new doctor, home and puppy. Las Vegas is a very exciting city and I can't wait to move! My new doc is going to start me on Clomid as soon as I can so hopefully it will resolve my ovulation issue. Sticky baby dust to all you ladies
babybemine: sounds to me like you are going to get a bfp this month! Keep us updated!

[selaiwa]

I think you should get the blood test done on Thursday. If it is positive you will have a heads up on your hsg and progesterone numbers early.You will be 11 dpo  on Thursday is that right? If so, you can even start hpt testing at 10 dpo.  Why not! Go for it! The dollar store brand New Choice hpt can detect a 25! This is the same as frer!! You can't beat that for a dollar!
    **************************** Baby  Dust to you!!!!!!!**********************************

[NicoleW09]

hm...symptoms right now? i'm 10 dpo, my boobs feel heavy and my god are they sore, i'm extremely tired (i feel like i havent slept in years), im nauseated after i eat, and ive been having slight cramps (they arent so bad and arent too often), i have a bad headache, and in general all week i've wished that i hadnt gotten out of bed. i usually spot on the fourth or fifth of the month until the 8th when i get af. so far, nothing. i don't feel menstrual right now, but we'll see. i woke up this morning with a lot of ewcm...again. wth!? lol. i've been wet since o and its been ranging from white and creamy to watery to ewcm. what in the world is going on, im normally dry right now! oh well, we'll see in like three days whether or not af shows.

has anyone ever had that though and actually been pregnant?

[nickieb85]

I wish I would have paid more attention the last time I was pregnant so at least I would be helpful in all of this but with both of my boys (they were both unplanned:) but I didn't get a positive til I was 6 weeks out. Both of them were that way and I am not sure what causes that in some women but I am just one of them!

[nickieb85]

Ok ladies you all probably know my deal by now. Well I was feeling kinda crampy last night as I lay in bed and even told DH yesterday that maybe I was going to start my period. (I haven't ovulated on my own in the last 4 months almost 5) So I went to the bathroom this afternoon after dinner because I had to pee sooooo badly. I am constantly wearing a pantyliner because of the CM and I had a very light pink discharge today. That was it! So what do you think, could this be implantation bleeding?

[NicoleW09]

Sounds like it to me!!! I'm so excited for you, I can imagine how excited you are! Especially since it went away, I mean usually spotting before your period sorta stays there right? Or you at least have it several times in one day. Wow, you better let me know what happens!

Im basically the same, except everything is making me want to puke. Ill think I want something, so I'll get it an then half way through it, I start to gag. Then I've had weird cramps and bloating, and when I peed earlier I swear it burned a little, but it didnt feel like a UTI. Still, no spotting or signs of af...i hope she stays away for all of us!

[nickieb85]

I hope that this all our month! It would be great since this is the last month without medical intervention as I am scheduled to see a fertility specialist on May 26th. I wouldn't mind canceling that appointment for a prenatal appointment! My pink spotting went away almost as soon as it started. I wonder if I didn't ovulate later than I thought... I am currently 8-10 days past ovulation... I am not really sure but I am going to be testing on Friday and then all weekend if I have to :)  Monday I am going for a blood test so we will have to just wait and see what the weekend (and mother's day) brings for us! I hope we all get to celebrate a little extra this year! When are you testing?

[nickieb85]

So I had a little more of the pink before I went to bed but nothing since. How is everyone feeling?

[NicoleW09]

um...my boobs are sore and feel heavy, my notorious headache for the most part is gone (usually during af i have migraines), im still so very tired, and last night I was laying down on my belly trying to go to sleep and it was so uncomfortable. It felt like something was pulling from the inside (like with a pulled muscle, it was burny too) at this one spot on my lower abdomen (right under my belly button). So, i rolled back onto my side and DH put his arm around my belly and my rib was tender! I was also very, very nauseated last night. Right now I just feel fluttery feelings in my belly. I don't know what to think. I'm supposed to start friday or saturday...I'm getting super anxious and sad and depressed. I'm probably going to test friday and over the weekend and pray to god I don't start.

[nickieb85]

I had what I think was implantation bleeding yesterday and today... I called the nurse and she told me that I needed to come in for a blood test so I did... I have to wait until for the results until later today. It is worth the wait though because I am supposed to have surgery in 6 days and I need to be absolutely sure. My boobs are definitely bigger. I had to have DH look just for another opinion! LOL! He totally agreed with me. I haven't had any cramps since the night before last and last night the pink stuff started and it was mixed with EWCM (sorry TMI)... From what I have read this sounds like implantation bleeding, it is definitely not the start of my period (I've never had one start like that and plus, no cramps; I would be doubled over in pain if I was going to start my AF) so just wait and see! STICKY STICKY BABY CEMENT TO US BOTH!!!!!

[NicoleW09]

I had something similar to that last month. I had O'd and about a week later I noticed some ewcm tinted brown. It went away and I was so excited, I went to the dr and my hcg count was a 2. :( Then a week later I had af, only I would have a steady flow for two days, it would stop for a day, then start back up. I didn't bother to test, bc I knew it would be pointless and just upset me. Well...this month I had a bad case of baby fever and tested 7dpo (im stupid, i know), and it was negative. So, basically I just want it to say positive so bad that I have developed poas anxiety. lol. Baby cement to us both!!!

[nickieb85]

Yeah mine was pink though so I am keeping my head up. I called to try to find out what the results were and my nurse is out so I am supposed to call back in 10 minutes to talk to another nurse. Like I said, I am supposed to have surgery next week so I need to be 100% sure! I hope we both get Mom's day surprises!

[nickieb85]

So my nurse is out and I won't get my results tomorrow :( BLAH!

[Jenn102707]

Good Luck Nickieb85! I hope you hear good news tomorrow. Keep us posted!

[nickieb85]

Ok so I have big news! I got my call back and I am in fact pregnant! YAY! My last month to do it by myself and we did it!

[NicoleW09]

Aww!!! YAY!!! I'm so excited for you! What were your levels of hcg? I'll bet DH is so excited! I'm glad that you caught the egg this month!

I hope I caught mine too, :( I'm having pain in my lower stomach now...no af yet, but I still have until the 8th or 9th. I don't feel menstrual at all, but I'm sure af will show like she always does. lol. BABY CEMENT!!!

[babybemine]

[Jenn102707]
