@Kaohinani: I'm outside the window and his pediatrician said tamiflu isn't really recommended for little kids because the side effects are so bad
-
@Sams Mom: Weird. T was prescribed it when she was 3 and both she and I came down with the FLU her 1st year in HI (December... it was the worst!)
-
@Sams Mom: Iβm sorry you have the flu! We had it in January and our dr recommended having everyone take elderberry and also recommended something called Umcka with Pelargonium for the kids. I forget how old your LO is and how old the brand says itβs for. Our dr is studying holistic medicine and said that those two things are proven as helpful for flu especially when given soon after symptoms start. I hope you all feel better soon!
-
@creativemomma15: Wow, that is great to know. My massage therapist (for my Fibro) and acupuncturist are holistic as well. Sometimes, it is amazing how well alternative medicine can work!

DAY 3 of chocolate
Tested, before I wanted to bc DH was insistent... BFN (* Why would anything change from the last 3 years, huh? π€£π€£
I told him that IF I am implantating today, positive results wouldn't show until 2-5 days post implantation. SO, now he wants me to test the 21st to the 24th. We shall see π€·ββοΈ. I'm super discouraged and feel like our #3 will never happen. All the weird cravings are progesterone-induced. What a bummer!P.S. still feeling ovarian cramps on the left no matter how much I drink. Thinking it is either a cyst or an atopic PG. This cycle is just NOT cool.
-
Hey ladies! So we were supposed to sit out this cycle (2nd one since ectopic) and try next month. Saturday night my parents watched DS overnight, and we dtd thinking we were safe because it was only CD 9 and I usually ovulate CD 15-19. Well I have been feeling crappy all day and have had a ton of ewcm, so I took an OPK just now and itβs positive. π€¦ββοΈ Do yβall think we are safe, or should I be worried of the possibility of conceiving this cycle?
-
Would yβall consider this positive? Iβve never had a positive this early before. Iβm kicking myself for not being more careful.
-
@Jessiemuller88: THAT is a BEAUTIFUL OPK! Yes, positive! And, in all honesty, although I know you are set to wait another month, I'd be thrilled if you were set to join this board.
That stated, if you have BD-ed anywhere from O+5 (latest in clinical studies) up until OV, you are "in the game."
-
@Kaohinani: Oh No! Iβm so sorry if I got you thinking you might be having an ectopic implantation. Itβs so rare, Iβm sure thatβs not whatβs happening for you.
-
@Jessiemuller88: This is exactly my situation this month! Thought we were safe and but took an OPK after the fact just to be sure and it was positive. Iβm a couple days out from knowing for sure, but I feel like weβre both βin the gameβ so to speak.
-
@Kaohinani: @Karenbme: thank you for your input ladies. I was fearful that we were βin the gameβ but itβs too late to stress now. I will be looking for updates from both of you in the next few days. Fingers crossed for sticky BFPβs!
-
Havenβt had time to catch up today, but just saw this and had to post...@yellowbeach: so glad your (adorable!) cake turned out the way it did!
-
@karenbme: Thank you.
Please, do not think that your words made me believe I am going to have an ectopic (* my phone keeps changing "ectopic" to "atopic" @Jessiemuller88: Thank you!
@bees_knees: That is hilarious!
------------------------------------
As for me, BBT is back up. (What a rollercoaster this cycle is!) I hope my TD doesn't adjust it tomorrow. This morning, I only have uber-mild cramping and some bloat.
@Sams Mom: Are you feeling any better this morning? π€ How are your temps... still over 100Β°F ? You know, a fairly large % of BFPs come to women who became ill during their cycles. Hopefully, your unlucky sickness becomes your lucky cycle.
@Yellowbeach: How is your chart this morning? I always look out for it first thing in the morning. I am still hopeful you could get a BFP.
-
@bees_knees: π€£ wow... I will never look at Peppa the same way again.
-
@Kaohinani: Your chart looks so good. Rollercoaster indeed! Iβm glad I wasnβt the source of the ectopic concern, but I hope youβre not stressing too much about it. Idk the stats for multiples, but I know when we were looking into IVF, greater risk of ectopic was still only 4%, so greater than 1-2%, but still not high.
@bees_knees: Those are ridiculous.
@Jessiemuller88: Are you worried about anything specifically related to the ectopic or just not feeling ready? I canβt remember if you did surgery or MTX (I think surgery?) but my dr lets people try again immediately if they had surgery, and I know 1 person that had an oops 2 mos after MTX that now is a perfectly healthy 4 year old. Which is to say birth defects are more common after MTX but not a guarantee.
-
@Kaohinani: still feel kind of rough, but my TD only put me in the low 99s
-
@bees_knees: not what I was expecting to see when I dropped in this board ...gave me and DH a great morning laugh!!
-
@karenbme: Thank you.
It is a rough looking chart even with the high temps, isn't it? @Sams Mom: I'm sorry you still feel "ick."

@bees_knees: omg someone tagged me on Facebook with this and I spit out the coffee I was drinking. So funny.
@SamsMom: How are you guys feeling today?
@kaohinani: Iβm working 6p-2a tonight, so was trying to sleep in some. But of course here I am awake at 8. Iβm glad your temp rebounded. Chart is looking great.
AFM, 11DPO. slight temp drop, another
on FRER this morning. That plus the preAF cramps smthat started in yesterday have me preparing for AF. Iβm excited for CD1 to be here so we can get started.
-
@bees_knees: LOL I saw these cookies on Facebook the other day. I've never considered Peppa to be phallic but now I can't unsee it!
(Sorry just popping in from lurking
)

again for me this morning.
Hawaii here I come!!

Question for the hive, is dizziness a pre-bfp pregnancy thing? I'm seeing it as a pregnancy symptom, but this early? I'm holding off testing because my possible implantation pain was during the day Monday, but I woke up SO dizzy this morning, like sat up in bed, sat there for a minute and still had to reach out for the wall when I stood up. Otherwise I'm not feeling sick. Last night my boobs were so sore I had to sleep with them out of the covers, which has been my tip off each time. I've also been having crazy dreams every night since Saturday, and could not stop crying last night at an instagram video of a dog that lost her puppies in a fire but got a set of adoptive puppies who had lost their mom (crying in and of itself is not a symptom here, totally normal for me to cry at insta vids, but the not being able to get control of myself after a minute or two def. is).
I have to say if I do get a surprise
this month, I'll be totally excited. The timing could not be worse. I'll have to miss my best friend's wedding, I'll be out at the absolute busiest time at work, and there are 4 cousins with birthdays in the last week of Oct/first week of Nov, so we can forget about family birthday parties, but if this is a sticky baby, which we're still a long way from, I'll be SO happy, and now I'm tearing up at my desk...
-
@mrskansas: Sorry to see this, but Yay Hawaii! Snorkel with sea turtles for me!
-
@yellowbeach: Sorry you're feeling out. Fingers crossed AF shows up soon and you can keep moving.
-
@yellowbeach: Wow, your temps look great! I'm sorry for your BFN this morning; however, I am glad for you that you are revved up and ready for next FET cycle (SO exciting!).
@mrskansas: I'm torn - While I feel bad that you received a BFN, I am super excited (and envious) that you get the prize of a Hawaiian vacation SINCE you got a BFN!! π€
@karenbme: Holy pregnancy symptoms, Batman! (* I REALLY hope this cycle brings you a sticky BFP!
-
@Kaohinani: I was actually just thinking this morning that I feel like my life has been on hold for the past 2.5 years due to TTC. I put off going back to school because I thought I'd have another baby, but I finally wised up last year and did it.
We put off a nice vacation for a long time too but I just can't do it anymore. I am incredibly blessed to have my daughter and I need to enjoy life with her more!! -
@mrskansas:
-
@karenbme: just dropping in to say that dizziness was definitely a sign for me of my second pregnancy. it was actually my first symptom and my husband thought for sure i was pregnant--i wasn't so sure but he was right. that was right after O for me, though, so i didn't see a positive until probably two weeks later.
i have previously had a dizziness reaction to birth control pills and i think i was probably reacting to a surge in progesterone--i've read that dizziness can be a side effect of progesterone.
many fx for you!!!
-
@yellowbeach: I'm a propped up semi warm body at work today. I hate having no paid sick days
-
@Sams Mom: Iβm so sorry you are feeling so rotten.
-
@Kaohinani: haha, scandalous one shot club indeed.
Iβm DPO 8 but have a call schedule for the next week that will wreck havoc on tracking BBT. I want to wait for testing until AF is actually late but we shall see if Iβm strong enough. -
Ok, I think being forced to be upright for more than 30 minutes is improving my health... A little.
I've also survived on Gatorade, pills, water, Sprite, and the occasional tortilla shell since Monday.
Very very pessimistic about this months odds, so I don't know if I'll test. Might wait for AF to show this time around.
-
@Sams Mom: As I always like to say "I'm just one viral illness away from my ideal bodyweight."
-
@yellowbeach: definitely weighed myself this morning
-
@MsHangry: Thanks! I'm glad someone else appreciated my attempt at humor and the fact that we have had a bevy of ladies this month with "scandalous ooops' AND one-shot BD!" We've begun our own club!
AFY, that must be so frustrating to have a crazy schedule that does not avail you to properly temp! I become frustrated when I get woken (by dogs, kids, husband prepping for a training weekend, pee ... all listed causes at once!@Yellowbeach: I love it! "I'm just one viral illness away from my ideal bodyweight." Too funny ... I may just have to steal that to use with my bestie. She always says that she is a month-long hunger strike from an acceptable BMI ... since I am a small person [and FOREVER ill], your version is perfect!
@Sams Mom: I'm glad that sitting up gives you some relief.
--------------------------------
AFM, I'm crampy and gassy so IDK if the cramps (which are now centralized really low in my pelvic girdle and not on my left side) are due to the gas discomfort OR they are simply mid-luteal uterine cramps... so frustrating. I checked my chart overlay (4 cycles) and, with the exception of having the highest BBT I've ever had, I look pretty much "on-track" for my usual BFN by 16 DPO. π€£
-
@Kaohinani: @nwm: Thanks for the input, ladies. I didn't have dizziness with any of my other pregnancies, so hopefully this is a sign that hormones are rising and everything is on track unlike the last 3 times. I was a little freaked out that maybe I was getting the flu this morning. Hopefully I'm pregnant and not coming down with something...
@Sams Mom: Sorry to hear you're still so sick. It's awful that you can't take time off of work.
-
@karenbme: New symptoms could allude to great things! I can't wait for you to test! π€
-
Babysitter called: Sam is going 100 mph, ate a Clementine and applesauce for breakfast and 6 Dino chicken nuggets for lunch.

Good luck, ladies! 
on FRER this morning. That plus the preAF cramps smthat started in yesterday have me preparing for AF. Iβm excited for CD1 to be here so we can get started.
