We have been TTC/NTNP for about 2.5 years in total. We have mild MFI and possibly PCOS</p> <p>Did you spend any time NTNP? How long? Yes. Over the past 2.5 years we have NTNP and TTC, some months we actively TTC and other months we just NTNP </p> <p>Have you had any BFPs? Yes. Just over 2.5 years ago I had a miscarriage. I had no idea I was pregnant until it was too late</p> <p>How long is your usual cycle? 28-29 days</p> <p>Conception Tools (OPKs, ect.): OPK's, charting and I'm going to start temping this month. </p> <p>Fertility Aids/Medications: I have tried Fertilitea, Chinese herbs and vitamins</p> <p>Do you track 2WW symptoms?: No. I did for a long time but it made me crazy and PMS and pregnancy symptoms are so similar that it would just create more disappointment</p> <p>How do you stay positive? I try to focus on other things, and when I feel really down (which isn't that often anymore), I start planning the things we can do without kids</p> <p>CD: 28</p> <p>POAS date: I don't test unless I'm 3+ days late, which I won't be this time because I already have cramps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1490040 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 17:27:17 +0000 katieleigh_82 1490040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMcD: Awww I'm sorry I've been thinking about all of you and letting on the board waiting for any posts/updates from anyone. I am doing well so far had 2 hcgs done, one Monday and the 2nd today and it more than doubled so I picked up my lovenox prescription today. First appt isn't until 4/16.

I am hoping and praying that maybe I got the ball rolling and now BFPs are gonna start popping up on this thread like crazy </p> [attach=4722/14/n24piq.337x600.1394300791719.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1480299 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 11:56:41 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1480299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katieleigh_82: I think the mind shift would be so hard, and this is so huge! Even if you don't "get it together," I think your DH will be so happy he won't care. If you want to try, maybe watch some funny movie, go shopping, work out? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1480286 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 11:51:27 +0000 katieleigh_82 1480286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: I'm so sorry sweetie :( I never figured out a better way to cope, but wine sure helps! Today would have been the start of cycle#8 for us. Guess I can cancel all the tests and procedures that the RE ordered. I'm still kind of dumbfounded to be honest. I go from smiling/laughing, to crying (happy tears of course), but I'm just trying to wrap my head around this. Hopefully I can get it together before DH gets home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1480207 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 11:02:27 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1480207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katieleigh_82: OMG, that's awesome! So happy for you. How many cycles have you been trying?</p> <p>AF came, now on CD3. Trying to figure out a better way to deal emotionally so it doesn't hurt so much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1480192 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 10:55:12 +0000 katieleigh_82 1480192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm in total shock right now...AF was due today and of course me being the impatient one that I am, I decided to test...BFP :bfp: !!!I tested last Tuesday right before my appointment with the RE at 9DPO, BFN, but today it popped right up. I am hysterically crying right now and of course DH had to work today!!! </p> [attach=4722/14/n24k81.600x337.20140308_104757.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1480027 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 08:45:11 +0000 katieleigh_82 1480027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: Any news?!? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1471033 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 18:36:37 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1471033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Day 13DPO, and my temp is still up. AF due yesterday or today. I will probably test tomorrow. Hopeful, but a little of the "OMG, we're not ready for this!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1467628 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 18:04:34 +0000 katieleigh_82 1467628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is so crazy everyone is having BFP dreams, I had one the other day too and it just seemed so real to me!<br /> @Snowdrop: that is great you are starting to learn more about your body.<br /> Yes it's crazy how yesterday I was stuck in a TTC rut and today I just feel so much more confident about things. I'm nervous about what these tests and the surgery will show though...my last lap and HSG were 10 years ago so who knows how much worse my endo is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1467552 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 17:46:20 +0000 Snowdrop 1467552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crystal: kind of but i did pay lots of attention before anyway. Its just more documented now which is what the doctor needs to diagnose. For example, i knew i had light bleeding but didn't realise how bad. Ive had one day if moderate flow followed by 6 days of brown spotting!! Ive only been charting a week and a half so not learnt any more than that. I would really recomend learning it. We will use it for birth control one day hopefully :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1467533 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 17:40:31 +0000 Crystal 1467533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Snowdrop: Are you learning anything about your body? I am so happy you are starting the process to get your your amazing baby, </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1467492 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 17:27:08 +0000 Snowdrop 1467492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crystal: yeah its just this month we have to abstain to get used to cm tracking properly. I am tempted to just go for it on an importsnt day but then i think.... hasn't worked all the other months... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1467464 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 17:19:05 +0000 Crystal 1467464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katieleigh_82: that is fast, but great news!!!</p> <p>@AmeliaBedilia: I had a weird dream that I had a baby and was carrying it around in a carseat carrier. These dreams are making equally sad and hopeful. </p> <p>I really hope that your temps are up for a great reason!!!!! I can't wait to hear!</p> <p>@Snowdrop: Yay for starting blood tests this month! You don't have to abstain after that, right? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1467245 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:07:54 +0000 Snowdrop 1467245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: lots of people get BFP dreams when it's their month :grin: </p> <p>@katieleigh_82: Wow that is fast but really good too. K'm so glad things are moving quickly for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1467186 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 15:52:46 +0000 katieleigh_82 1467186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Snowdrop: glad you can start testing done than you thought!!<br /> @AmeliaBedilia: Any updates on your end?</p> <p>I am feeling great today, had my first appointment with the RE today and he said he was so glad I was there now. He said with my medical history I could have walked in there 3 months ago and he would have started testing then no questions asked (darn!) He drew blood today, I'm scheduled for an US and HSG next Thursday, and boarded for a laparoscopy on 3/18, he also gave me an rx for DH to get a SA!!! He is so on top of things I'm still in shock at how fast this is all happening. How is everyone else doing this month? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1461355 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 12:10:42 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1461355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Snowdrop: So glad to hear that things are looking up.</p> <p>I had some weird dreams last night, including carrying around a pregnancy test in the form of a watch, with two lines on it. I was really happy, then woke up and realized it was a dream. I also had some dream that involved a job I am trying to get that was positive, but I can't remember the details. I really hope this is God telling me it will all be alright. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1461342 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 12:01:15 +0000 Snowdrop 1461342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: I will be looking for an update tomorrow then :happy: </p> <p>As for me, I'm in such a positive mood after my lesson and finding out I can start blood tests this month instead of next month! Isn't it strange how things affect your mood when TTC? Really is uch a roller coaster! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1461299 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 11:19:49 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1461299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Snowdrop: Temp usually drips 11DPO. So nervous for tomorrow. I don't feel well, and it is snowing like crazy here. I had several things I wanted to accomplish today but feeling guilt over taking it easy today (which is what I probably should do). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1461292 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 11:13:08 +0000 Snowdrop 1461292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: That chart does look good, when does your temp normally drop?</p> <p>I understand, I found out on Friday night that a friend who started TTC same time as me just had a miscarriage. It was awful, I felt so much empathy towards what she is going through but at the same time I was sad for me because I'd never even seen a BFP and she had, the of course I felt awful and so guilty for being jealous of someone who had just gone through that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1461285 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 11:07:49 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1461285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 10DPO and been a little sick. I'm excited about my temps but nervous for tomorrow. We're on cycle 11, and it's hard to not feel that "it's never gonna happen." My chart looks good, but not sure if the higher temps haven't been my body trying to fight off this illness.</p> <p>I've been hoping that my SILs don't get pregnant before me. Last night, one of them had issues and I think is pregnant or just had a miscarriage. I can't even explain why this is hard, but I figured you ladies would understand.</p> <p><a href="http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/kg2014" rel="nofollow">http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/kg2014</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1455979 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 18:14:50 +0000 Snowdrop 1455979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tam: sending you a virtual glass of wine to help with the CD1 blues... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-1-support-group-6-months/page/8#post-1455712 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 16:43:51 +0000 katieleigh_82 1455712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tam: so sorry to hear that, hugs to you! </p>
