Random question for you ladies: are/were you hoping to get pregnant for a certain life event or time? I would LOVE to tell my husband on his 30th birthday that I’m pregnant. Best.birthday.ever. right? It’s at the end of this month and I would know if we were successful or not by then. Was just thinking about it and was curious if anyone else had envisioned something similar ๐

Pretty sure I’m out. I’ve been spotting the last couple days and my temp dropped below the cover line today. AF is due tomorrow but I won’t be surprised if she starts today. Boo ๐

AmyintheTARDIS: Really sorry to hear this…hope that next month brings you good luck *hugs*
MrsTwister: Yes! I targetted our first wedding anniversary last year…but then it’s all luck. I’m sure your husband will be ecstatic hearing the news be it on his 30th birthday or any other day…best of luck ๐
I also need a bit of advice: with extremely aggravated PCOS, uterus lining shedding, I had my last period on 14th May, had a little brown spotting on CD 20-22 and then nothing. I went to a doctor who told me to start metformin 1000mg and put me on birth control too and since then I’ve had NO period with very sore boobs. It’s killing me now, I’m on CD 48 now technically speaking. and getting tired of not having my period. Any word of comfort or advice for me? ๐

Rabia: Thanks lady! As for you, could your spotting on CD 20-22 have been ovulation? Have you tested? My boobs get horribly sore after O.

AmyintheTARDIS: After having like a dozen BFNs I’ve just decided NOT to test anymore ( although I know it sounds crazy) but with PCOS and DH’s zero rapid progressive sperm combined, it just seemed too unlikely for us to TTC on our own. since April, my period’s been really bizarre with lots of brown spotting initially and then AF finally happening so I didnt give it much thought when it acted bizarre on CD 20-22 because it just sounded too good to be true and my doc also thought the same and prescribed me to metformin…now I’m just kind of HANGING…
It’s just that I was never really grateful to AF coming on time until now LOL :D…I’m kind of missing her to pay me a visit…but really I can’t wait…I have extremely low sex drive too although DH has not complained or anything but still…this is so NOT me not to want sex…and we’re talking about a streak of weeks here! argh :S

MrsTwister: Yes! Our 2 year wedding anniversary is on July 15th and AF is due on the 12th. I’m really hoping we have 2 reasons to celebrate that weekend. I’m scared to get too hopeful though. Good luck to you!
Rabia: When did the low sex drive start? I had a veeeery low sex drive when I was on the pill. It came back to normal a few months after stopping the pill. Maybe that’s the reason for you?
AmyintheTARDIS: I’m so sorry to hear that. Hopefully you’ll have good luck next time.

Hi ladies. I back with some bad news. I had my 2nd blood test today to see my hcg levels as unfortunately they dropped to 20. Drs office said I am having an early miscarriage. I am completely devastated and hurt from the deepest part of my soul. If anyone has any tips on how to cope with this please send them my way.

katie395: Oh no. I’m so so sorry for your loss. Miscarriage, even early, is just the most devastating thing. Take time to mourn, grieve, whatever else you need to do. And know that as horrible as it feels right now, it will get better with time. If you want to join us on the TTC after miscarriage board too, there are lots of helpful ladies who know just what you’re going through. I’m really sorry you’re going through this – you are in my thoughts.

katie395: I did not expect to see this. I’m so sorry. I can’t give you any outstanding advice, but take your time to grieve and then just be strong for each other. Continue TTC when you’re ready. At least you know it can and will happen for you. Again, I’m so sorry. We’re all here for you if you need us. Sending hugs xo
