Omg Kat those numbers are brilliant! You must be so relieved.

by **TwoToThreePlease** » Thu May 18, 2017 6:51 pm

Kat those numbers are great! I'm assuming! Haha!

Nothing on the pee stick from this morning. I was super tired when I got home from work though, so I took a quick nap. I thought my temp was crazy high this morning (98.27) so I temped when I woke up. It was 98.56 or .65... so I think it's safe to say that my temps are actually just elevated.

Temp drop today. Still well above the coverline though. We'll see what happens tomorrow.

MAGGIE - Your temp is still lovely and high though. Temping - It's such a mindf*** though isn't it? Oops might offend someone - its such a mindfart you know...? :mrgreen:

Well, I tested this morning and it was a BFN. I have also had a huge temp plummet and I am spotting. I am suspecting a chemical but did not have bloods done so I'll never really know. I'm taking this month off TTC as I have a lot of outdoor work to do and don't want to be in the predicament of not wanting to lift something heavy in case "I do damage during implantation" or one of the thousand and one other worries you have when you are TTC. You know how we all are. It's just for one cycle and I will still be here daily cheering you all on and looking and those nice shiny BFP's that are coming your way and the bump pics of course. We have a few acres of land and I am trying to grow some organic veggies so I really need to throw myself into that because in upstate NY, you'll blink and summer is over and so is your growing season.

This is only for one cycle though and I'll be back. Doc wants me to try Femara and trigger and progesterone this time so I will pick up my script for that at some point and re-commence with war on TTC!

Simone, you do you, lady! I'm sorry about your spotting.

But yay for home grown veggies! I live in town, and don't have a yard to speak of, but I WISH I could grow something. I'm really big on zucchini and peppers of all kinda, so I would love to have any of those. I'm already asking around for my gardening friends.

I'm excited that you have a plan for next cycle though! That'll be nice!

Yeah, It has dropped, but my room was also 70 degrees instead of 75, so I'm sure a tiny bit was due to the temp change. We'll see. Indiana is already 88+ degrees and muggy so we've been running our AC as well as the portable AC upstairs, but I think we're basically going to have to run the one upstairs 24/7. Say a prayer for our electricity bill.

My boss is going to be out most of the day, and possibly all of the day, so if you ladies need anyone to bounce thoughts or ideas off of, I'm your girl!

I know I'm late in saying this....Congratulations Kat!!!

by **Mamabear25** » Fri May 19, 2017 9:22 am

Blah! I think I'm getting sick guys

My throat is so swollen and sore. :'(
Hope everyone is doing well.
And yay for those numbers Kat!!!

OOOOH! That's a good sign, Taylor!

I've had some allergy issues, so I can't tell if the extra mucus is from possible pregnancy or just straight up pollen. I'm really nervous to test tomorrow. I don't know why. I'm worried that it's never going to happen and we're just going to be childless forever and blah. I would hate not to make my husband a father, but also I REALLY want to be a mom... ugh.

Thanks Dawn and Taylor! Sorry you're getting sick Taylor, hope you feel better soon.

Sorry Simone! Completely understandable, but you must know how I feel about breaks!! Go get 'em Tiger! #breakswork

Maggie, keeping my fingers crossed for you girl. Your last post really hit home for me. That's exactly how I felt. And I was devastated thinking about how I was the issue and I would be the reason that my husband never gets to be a father. It's so emotionally draining. Have some patience, hope, and faith. It will happen! Also, and I know it's not for everyone. But, maybe you tell a few people about your struggles and get some prayers on your side. I finally broke down and told my family and I couldn't believe I went so long without their support. But just sharing your experience is actually a huge relief. Several people in my family lit a candle for me including myself. And well, hey maybe it worked!

Keeping everyone in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Kat. <3 Our immediate family knows we're trying, and my mom knows, but she just keeps saying "Oh it'll happen, just relax" so that's frustrating. Whatever happens, I'll be ready for it, it's just scary, ya know!

Not super confident it's a good pregnancy sign haha. I've been around a lot of sick people lately so I'm thinking I just caught what everyone else has

non stop cough drops for me

Hi ladies! First of CONGRATS KAT!!!!!! That's so wonderful!!!

I've had a LOVELY week of not thinking about TTC much at all and it's been great! I was planning on having a few more days to a week, but was surprised with some early ewcm today. I've been focusing on eating well and doubled my water intake this last week, so I'm not sure if those changes are moving O up or just resulting in more ewcm earlier. Opk was negative today.

I'm having a hard time not wanting to BD tonight, as it seems like such a waste to let a potentially fertile day pass me by, but Russ and I decided on an every other day pattern as I approach O, so we'll be skipping tonight (unless we're in the mood, of course, but we've had a busy day). So I suppose BD will commence tomorrow for this cycle!

I did read through what I missed, but I won't try to reply to everyone. I'll just jump back in here and follow along.

Well. This stinks. I tested with a FRER digital and a wondfo cheapie. BFN. I would add pics, but honestly it's just start white... plus just " - NO" on the digital.

by **SEL** » Sat May 20, 2017 8:09 am

Awwww Maggie - you're still early girl. Hang in there.

Becca - lovely to hear from you!

Taylor- sorry you're sick.

Kat - thanks, I'm enjoying the break already. AF has finally come to visit. I welcomed her, thanked God that I still have her visits and took some painkillers!

Dawn - I have added you to my prayer list. I hope you get things sorted.

Hey eoe.
