@Lyndzo:  I’ve never had a good experience with the Brick. I just hope your bed is everything you hoped it would be! Also….you should write a review on Yelp too. 😉

@MrsPuddingface:  Thanks lady! It’s so comforting to know that these kinds of things aren’t just me overreacting. I really do want her to be happy, but it’s just a reminder of what I feel like is a failure on my part to have a child. It is somewhat easier that she she lives in California and I’m not all that close to her, so all I have to hear is passing conversation from my Grandmother.

Does anyone else feel like the days leading up to a possible test (like 5 dpo to 10 dpo) takes FOREVER!! I have had ZERO symptoms this TWW wait so far, which is good because I’m only 6 dpo. Last cycle though, I had worked myself into a frenzy over symptoms not realizing that your post-O progesterone surge can cause a lot of symptoms that mimic pre-pregnancy. Other than cramps, none of my symptoms have showed. Though this time I have really sensitive nipples, which I haven’t had before.

I haven’t had any dips yet since my temp spike, so I don’t think I have implanted, but that doesn’t always show on charts right? I know I have said this before, but I really wish you could just know the second you do the deed. The waiting sucks.

How is everyone else doing?

Hey you guys! Just popping in to say hey to you all! I’ve been trying to catch up and read all the posts, but you guys are just moving so fast with this board! I’m glad this board is really active. I was reading about some of you having a rough time with all the announcements happening around you. I just wanted to say it is painful no matter what, this infertility business is no joke and unless you experience it, other people REALLY don’t get it….at all. I don’t think they mean to be insensitive, they just dont understand on any level, but it still sucks. I still get emotional when I think about all the announcements over the last year and how I felt. i almost started crying the other day when I was talking with someone about my sister’s accidental pregnancy and all the planning and support I gave while silently struggling myself. It is a journey that totally sucks the life out of you at times, BUT you are all becoming stronger and more patient women because of it. (I know I would have said “but I don’t want to be patient and stronger….I just want to be effing pregnant!) It will happen for you all! I know it will and you will be better mothers because of this.

@MrsPuddingface:  Thank you, love face! I did feel like an ass, especially cause, like you said, they have no idea what Im going through and its not their fault I havent gotten KU yet, but you are so right, one day we will have our babies;))) How are you feeling? I keep stalking your chart hee hee just to see if O is about to happen ;| FX your wait list is less than 6 months.

@Mrs. Doily:  Im on TWW also, although is coming to end soon and this is the first cycle that I had no symptoms whatsoever, just acne on my face, which is AF symptoms and this morning my temp dropped a bit, so I think AF will be showing soon.  I hope, however, AF stays as far away from you as possible, lets just say as far as 9 months 😉

@august05:  Its so good to see you pop in lady, and thank you for your kind uplifting words, it means a lot.  How are you feeling?

@MrsPuddingface:  The bed is really nice, the footboard had a crack. They’re bringing a replacement Tuesday.  After my emailing head office and the BBB, Jim got a phone from their head office this morning.  We’re feeling much better about things.

 

@Mrs. Doily:  I agree! Today I am 8DPO and the time is dragging. Depending on if my LP stayed the same from before my BO, or if it went back to being shorter, AF could be here this weekend or Monday. I’m hoping she doesn’t come.

My boobs are soooo sore.  But they get sore before AF and they were sore before my positive test. Hmph.

@Lyndzo:  Hopefully they are sore cause your BFP is coming!

Ok so my opk was SUPER positive yesterday evening and I was having O pains, plus my temp this morning was not a post O temp (97.27) so I am 99% sure I am O’ing today and that yesterday morning’s temp was just a fluke. I remember I talked to DH that morning before I took my temp and didn’t get good/much sleep (we were up late doing laundry and packing for our trip) so I think it was elevated and I just went ahead and disregarded that temp. Hopefully I will see my true temp rise in the morning. I will be back in a bit to catch up with everyone, hope you ladies are having a good weekend!

@Mrs. Doily:  Yeah, I am over this.  Cycle 10 here.  I think I O’d yesterday, so I don’t have any crosshairs yet on FF, but I’m just tired.

@august05:  I did cry when my SIL announced she was PG after trying for only two cycles.  She thought she would have trouble since she has PCOS.  Luckily she didn’t.  I don’t talk to her about TTC because she hasn’t had the same experience and it’s really emotional for me, and that’s okay. One day we’ll be the PG ones!

@RoyalLime:  I too tried Softcups this month except I tried with my period and I COULDN’T GET IT OUT!! It took me 20 minutes and I almost had to wake up my husband for help.

*whispers* i didn’t want to say anything because i’m afraid i may get my hopes up for nothing (anything can happen at this point and my skin is breaking out like every other month)…. but my chart is kinda making me excited.

Posting from my phone, I’m up north…

I’m having the odd weird cramps. I guess AF is coming 🙁

@RoyalLime:  not an ignorant question!! And I actually think that being told that everything is ‘normal’ but not being pregnant yet is a GREAT reason to seek alternative ideas, seeing as you won’t get medical intervention easily. I found that my Naturo addressed SO much more than just our ‘fertility’ – she worked on our overall wellbeing and made us so much healthier in preparation for pregnancy. I credit her not only with my pregnancy, but also my lack of extreme morning sickness. Totally plan on seeing her in preparation for a natural childbirth, too. I was very lucky and had a friend recommend her after she’d got a different friend pregnant after trying for 4 years (yup – 4 years,including two different partners). But if I’d just googled I would have found her too – her ad specifically mentioned ‘fertility’ which I’d definitely look for. Sorry I can’t be more helpful than that though.

 

@MrsPuddingface:  that’s awesome that your appointment and results have got you feeling positive and proactive – I always felt SO MUCH better when I knew what was happening next. I’m a girl who needs a plan. Baby Hami seems to be doing very well thank you – I haven’t had an appointment to hear/see her/him for a few weeks, but if it’s growing at the same rate as my belly it is doing very well 😉 I’m now 15.5 weeks!

 

@MrsMonty11:  i had a weird ‘double spike’ on my chart (the month I got pregnant, actually) – was sure I’d O’ed, then suddenly got more EWCM and O pains…! It’s disconcerting, but not a problem (obviously!!). FX for you 🙂
