Ummm,I don't know what sister you're talking about kid, do you know what you're talking about? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/26#post-2874239 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 21:01:22 +0000 Jessiemuller88 2874239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kaohinani: of course!

Yea-it sucked, but was neat to see. I’m attaching it so you can check it out too. </p> [attach=9053/19/pnm3a2.320x600.7AB5EDA8-1A18-4587-9F0C-66E1CE0C1479.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/26#post-2874228 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 19:53:53 +0000 Sams Mom 2874228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Jessiemuller88: First and foremost,a totally crappy situation that effing blows. But I'm all for wild medical pictures, so the fact that you got to see it is crazy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/26#post-2874227 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 19:49:01 +0000 Jessiemuller88 2874227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: Interesting! This looks so similar to the pictures I received from my ovarian ectopic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/26#post-2874106 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 09:52:52 +0000 Kaohinani 2874106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Fibromyalgia flare-up is still "flaring." 🥺 (Not as bad as a few days ago, though!) I'm hooked up to my TENS machine while checking up on the boards. I loathe hormonal Fibro flares! </p> [attach=9021/19/pnlao4.407x600.20190227_095004.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/26#post-2874104 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 09:48:41 +0000 Kaohinani 2874104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: You know your body. I'm a "planner" so if I even assume AF is close, I wear a pantiliner (or also spelled "panty liner" 😂) and pack a tampon and heavier pad. That is just me, though.</p> <p>P.S. I had written back to your email ... Good luck! 🤞🍀 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/26#post-2874102 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 09:46:00 +0000 Sams Mom 2874102@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kaohinani: I'm tryin to decide if I should take AF precautions for my interview in an hour and a half </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/26#post-2874100 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 09:44:46 +0000 Kaohinani 2874100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: OR, it could just be a tiny dip (and not a drop). 🤷‍♀️ I'm really hoping you end up with a BFP, can't you tell?! 🤞🍀👍😁</p> <p>P.S. the March POAS board is back up and running ... I am so happy that it was fixed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/26#post-2874098 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 09:32:09 +0000 Sams Mom 2874098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Temp dropped some today, but nothing drastic. AF is probably on the way though 😶 </p> [attach=8928/19/pnl9pl.600x400.b_mXpbUU.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/26#post-2874084 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 08:43:16 +0000 LAZB 2874084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: that is amazing!

At first, a bit grotesque visually bit when one conceptualizes (I chose that word very carefully. 😉😂🤣 Pun, obviously, intended) that this is the process that allows for conception, it is actually awesomely fascinating! Thank you for the share! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/26#post-2874058 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 23:02:36 +0000 Sams Mom 2874058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally different topic... But saw a cool photo on one of my Facebook groups. Not sure what surgery this woman was having, but they caught ovulation on high res lap cameras. 😮 </p> [attach=8928/19/pnkgkd.292x600.Screenshot_20190226-215858.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2874057 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 22:57:13 +0000 Chuckles 2874057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskansas: I totally get it. I have a friend who has a son just a few months younger than my DS, and we bonded partly because we both really wanted second kids but our husbands weren't on board. Her husband changed his mind before mine did and she got pregnant a month before they even planned to start trying. Now her second son is *2 years old* and we're still at 1 kid. Also, the thing that kills me the most recently is seeing anyone out and about (as in, strangers) who have kids really close in age.<br /> ETA: Or seeing women with very young kids who are also very visibly pregnant. There was a woman at my son's swimming class on Monday who had a maybe 18 month old and she looked to be about 7 months pregnant. Ugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2874030 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 21:14:22 +0000 Sams Mom 2874030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskansas: o, I feel you on all of that!</p> <p>I have been to first birthday PARTIES, like plural, if babies conceived since we started trying. It sucks. I wish Facebook would let me filter pregnancy announcements sometimes. Like last week alone there was 5, 3 of them on one day. </p> <p>I know I don't know everyone's struggle or lack of to conception, but I get bitter. I am legitimately excited for people because I love babies, but I get so bitter for a period of time.</p> <p>I hate that anyone else has to deal with this crap, but know we're all here for a vent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2874026 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 20:39:03 +0000 karenbme 2874026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskansas: @Jessiemuller88: Like others here, Im with you. I’ve been trying for a year and a half, and in that time I’ve gone from having one or two friends who have kids to one or two friends that don’t have kids. June 2018 was when my first would have been due, and between friends and coworkers DH and I knew 12 people who had babies in May, June, and July. I don’t have anything to say to make it better aside from I feel you on how hard it is.💜💜 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2874004 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 18:00:53 +0000 Kaohinani 2874004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Jessiemuller88: :heart: It's so unbelievably hard to hear of SO many at once! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2874002 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 17:58:46 +0000 Jessiemuller88 2874002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskansas: I totally feel your frustration. There have been 4 announcements at my work this month, and my only friend that wasn’t pregnant is one of those 4 ☹️ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2874000 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 17:46:43 +0000 Kaohinani 2874000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskansas: I feel for you. :heart: :heart: :heart: While I am extremely happy for anyone who becomes pregnant, I am always a bit melancholic in regards to MY OWN infertility situation. Case in point, before my AF came, a friend of my husband's announced his wife's 5th pregnancy (Mind you, they are both OVER 40! 🤦‍♀️😱) .... I've been waiting over 3 years for my beautiful #3 and JUST turned 39. Why not ME?!?!?! My AF hit me hard even after ovulating 4 ovum (which none either became fertilized or stuck due to a thick uterine lining). 🤷‍♀️ I'm starting to wonder IF our third is meant to be. That stated - I always remain positive that it "could" happen bc it DOES happen to others with more fertility issues than my own. Stay hopeful. :heart: I'm certain @Sams Mom: @Yellowbeach: @Lazb: and @Jessiemuller88: can all both empathize and sympathize. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2873991 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 17:11:00 +0000 mrskansas 2873991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some days I swear that every woman can get pregnant but me. I know there are a lot of others that struggle with infertility but why must everyone I personally know get pregnant so easily?!<br /> UGH $#@!%@$# </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2873971 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 15:55:50 +0000 Kaohinani 2873971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@karenbme: *big hugs* Thank you! I'm so excited as it was a miracle to hear I was cyst-less and would not have to have a cycle on BCPs ... Now, doubly so, that I've been given the thumbs up to start Follistim (* Next hurdle will be getting to the Ovidrel trigger! 😉). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2873969 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 15:51:48 +0000 karenbme 2873969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: Sorry to see your :bfn: 😕 Hopefully you’ll have better luck in March.</p> <p>@Kaohinani: That’s so exciting!! Best best best luck in March! 🍷🍷🤞🤞 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2873966 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 15:39:58 +0000 Kaohinani 2873966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OK, since the March Board is defective (*I'm going to wait 24 hours and hope the Bee's can fix it), I am announcing that THIS CYCLE IS A GO!!! 🙏🎈🎉🎊👍😁😉 My lining looked good for being on an AF, however, my E2 was a bit high (89) for a CD3 read as the higher end cut-off for "normal" is 75. The RE isn't concerned (due to the fact I am AMA and, obviously, not in my 20's anymore) so, since I responded (in spades) to 75-IU Follistim, I will be taking 50-IU starting tonight. Instead of seeing me on CDs 7 or 8 or 9, they want me back on CD6 (Friday) to monitor folli development and my E2. I "eeeked" with excitement and the nurse's PA told me to go celebrate with a glass of wine ... she said after all have been through in February, I deserve to loosen up and relax! 👍😂🤣 I shall take her advice as more of PA's "orders." 😉🍷🍾<br /> So wishful and hopeful for this cycle to be a success!</p> <p>ATTN: @Sams Mom: @Yellowbeach @Paranundrum: @Karenbeme: @Lazb: @Jessiemuller88: @FuzzyPeaches @MrsKansas: @MsHangry: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2873915 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 12:22:16 +0000 Kaohinani 2873915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: Thanks! 👍💚 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2873914 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 12:19:33 +0000 Sams Mom 2873914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kaohinani: @yellowbeach: I posted on the help page 🤷🏼‍♀️🤞🏻 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2873913 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 12:13:50 +0000 Kaohinani 2873913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: I'm sorry you didn't get a BFP. 😭😭😭 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/february-2019-poas/page/25#post-2873912 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 12:13:18 +0000 Kaohinani 2873912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yellowbeach: @Sams Mom:</p> <p>I still can't access the 2 page on the March POAS board.🤦‍♀️ It is some sort of glitch.
