Found my TTC Friends #5
Hi ladies,
I thought I would take tori's lead and start a new thread. I hope this bright sunny V-Day finds you all in lovely spirits and lovely moods.
ad_06 - I've heard gas is a symptom! This just may be it!
Jen - I'm so sorry you got a BFN. The are so disappointing and frustrating. But look at it this way: Now you can have a sip of wine and enjoy a night of love without purpose! You and your Dh can, smile, eat, dance and love away the night without thinking about love as BD'ing. I know you were really hoping BFP would be a Valentine gift and you must feel so let down. But you ovulated without problems, your luteal phase was a great length, don't get discouraged - you just have another month ahead of you and it will work out. p.s. read the old thread, I think torismommy made some good suggestions to you regarding HSG.
Torismommy - It sounds like you and your Dh got it all planned. I will most definitely keep my fingers crossed that you ovulate soon. It really does suck not too. I had a Dr. friend look at my charts and he said that I might not be ovulating even though I'm getting my period b/c certain things aren't matching up well. I envy you your dh, at this point mine is lovely and can talk about the stuff but he is really leary about medications and procedures. He wants it to be all natural. And from the looks of things, it ain't gonna happen that way. I think you are right, you've been on clomid once before and know what to expect. That alone might help you control the side effects. Do you do yoga or anything of the like? I'm too lazy lately but that seriously helps me curb moods.
Ashort - The progesterone must be interesting! I think I'm totally wrong about twins regarding HCG. Your numbers look like they are right on track for baby (girl?)
How is everyone else doing? I forget who else posted now and I can't look back! Agh. take care and Happy Valentines Day to all!

ugh. the weather is crazy here. and i got to trudge up to the university. i am so not impressed. but it looks gorgeous!
ashort- your principle sounds like a donk-head. i don't even know if 'donk-head' is an actual description but it sounds apt. what an idiot. i was surprised to read that she's a woman. i'm sorry you feel like blah. hopefully that hard core stomach working pilates helped you a bit. ordering preseed sounds like a great idea. those two months will pass sooner than you know...especially with all those kiddies, march break and a nasty principle. how is your dh handling it all? is he doing any better? and you?
ad- you might as well start bd'ing anyways! so exciting, you should get your smiley anyday now! good luck.
well, i'm cd7 and finally got the monitor thing figured out. still low fertility but i guess that's good this early on.
how is everyone else?

Today I am on CD 12 and I haven't gotten a smiley yet! Last cycle on clomid, I got it on CD 11 and 12...I hope this cycle isn't going to be long.. I can't wait to get my smiley so we can start BD!! Good Luck to everybody...and welcome everyone that has joined.
HI girls...just stopping in for a minute. I feel so out of the loop...like I'm in a fog all day. I wish everybody luck this month ttc! Welcome SamLB!
Aweeone- Yeah, maybe the yoga will help. I'm trying pilates tomorrow night. Dh and I are so done. All day I feel like BLAH! I wish I could take more time off from work too but my principal wasn't happy about me taking 3 days. She actually asked my coteacher if I was in on Thurs (because she was out)...sure I was in...LOL...Yeah, I had a m/c on Wednesday and came in on Thurs...is she crazy??? I hope you get my sarcasm. I told dh that I just really don't care about my jjob right now. During a time like this you realize that jobs can be replaced your health cannot. Good luck with your fertility monitor! I think I'm going to order some more preseed for when we can ttc again!

sorry, i had a huge assignment due today and was pre-occupied when writing my last note. it's nice to see some activity on here today. Welcome Sam! How long have you been ttc'ing? You joined a good group. Earlier in the year, half the ladies got their bfp's!
So this month is my first month using an opk. And today was my first day poas for it! I am ridiculous!! I had to go pee sooo bad at 6:30am but my opk is this machine and I have to poas within a six hour radius~which doesn't begin till 7am...or so i thought in my sleepy state...my six hour radius actually begins at 6am. what an idiot! so i held my pee for half an hour, then poas, then I couldn't figure out how to get the darned stick into the machine! It was so ridiculous. LOL Anyways, I finally figured it out. My fertility status is still low. I hope it peaks soon cause I'm going away for two nights next Tuesday.
and it just dawned on me that you are still in the running ashleigh! yeah! i still hope this is your month. 3dpo is great jen. the tww will be over before you know it. and hopefully it will end with a bfp!
it's great to hear from all you pretty mama's! we should start keeping a tally of your baby's sex (or what you think it is). has anyone started to think of names yet?

lamb - i feel like we did a pretty good job bd'ing :) we used preseed this month for the first time and I think I'll continue to use it - not sure when I'll test - or even if I will - until AF is very late... last month she was late, and I got my hopes up WAY too high... so this month I think I'll just wait it out (or at least try :) Enjoy your semester off from classes!
