reap- Thanks for sharing that- you made me feel better. Both blood and urine came back negative yesterday at the doc

I should have only been 9 dpo though, so I know there's still a chance but I feel myself giving up on this month and just accepting it and preparing to get my af on Sunday :/ I am trying to stay positive but holding out hope makes the disappointment that much worse.

hem- me too, negative at 9 dpo. boo. Hang in there!

dye and confused- CONGRATS!!! SO happy for you guys!!!

Monica- how sweet of your hubby

My husband keeps surprising me too with how much he's thinking about it. He sent me a Discovery article yesterday about some study with birds about how the habitat inside the mother can determine the sex of the baby? (he's going for a boy

) It made me smile that he was looking up that stuff online

Over- how are you feeling?

How did the doc go yesterday?

Sending all of you positive thoughts (trying to keep them up for me, too)

I'm feeling sore bbs today. Also completely out of it and finding myself needing a nap very early in the day (I'd be lying if i said i don't normally nap- haha). But i have summers off so i shouldn't be this tired. Also some sharp pains in my stomach and bbs. Hoping these are not signs of af that i normally miss because I'm too busy to feel them. Congrats to those who got their bfp.. I know there's still more of us to get one! Also, one question.. What does fx mean?

by **Ollimaraj** » Thu Aug 02, 2012 1:13 pm

FX means "fingers crossed"

i hope you dont mind me joing your group, ive been looen for a group that is very chatty and from the reading i did today you guys are. In my spare time im a computer junkie so i guess i take after my mom. (Rip)

Little bit about me were ttc our 3rd we recently married in may and were gunna wait till next year but when i missed my period cuz i messed up my bc i thought i was pregnant and was happy and when i got a bfn i was very dissappointed and the dh saw how i was and said if i wanted we could start trying i was filled with joy.

So i havent gotten my period yet they use to be irregular when i was on the shot but i been on patch since feb and i went from reg to 2 afs a month then in may normal and so since i missed it this month not sure when i ovulated i tried using fertility calenders or w/e but 2 diff sites gave me to diff ovulation dates if i was still wearing patch i would be getting my af tomorrow. So hopefully ill know since we werent sure when i was ovulating i mean i never notcied pains every time but maybe i ovulated wee n half ago cuz i was gettin all inds of pains in my lower adomen and sore boobs and fatigue. but we did bd we just been doing it everyday just be on safe side we skipped a couple of days cuz i had the flu. So hopefully af comes if not well idk lol. i mean when i had my youngest i just knew my boobs felt so sore n heavy. :wink:

Well my RE called me today and wanted to know if I got my bfp yet. Sadly, I have not so they told me that they would like for me to do another cycle with a higher dose of Clomid (150 mg). I already know DH will not go for that. He was very firm in telling me that this cycle is the last and I agreed so he gave it his all (scheduled bd). So I know I cannot expect him to support it. I might go ahead and do the higher dose of Clomid and just not track anything (not do opk) so I do not have to make it feel like a scheduled bd. However, the next thing is he is tired of all the medication I am on, Clomid, Estradiol, Progesterone, baby asprin, and high dose of prenatal, so he still might be opposed to trying a higher dose of Clomid. I will not be upset with him if he is against it because we have given it 10 years and if it has not happened (or sticked) then I know I need to come to the realization that it will most likely not happen. I know he is tired of seeing me depressed and to the point that I quit exercising and have put on way too much weight and I need to focus on me now. IDK, I am so confused and yet I feel like I have the answers right here in front of me. I would love to be normal weight again and not overweight, so maybe I need to focus on that. Again, so confused. Sorry for going on and on, I just need to put it out there.

Again, for all of you, I do hope you get your bfp, everyone deserves to have a family....it is such wonderful news to read about the bfp.....I love it..........It makes me jealous, but in a good way, really!!!!

GL and fx to all of you...

Ollie- that's a really tough decision. Have you tried IVF?

by **Ollimaraj** » Thu Aug 02, 2012 2:43 pm

I'm not a good candidate for IVF because of recurring miscarriage. We started with IUI because we could not get pregnant on our own but after the first IUI we got pregnant but miscarriaged, after that we had several failed IUI and then we started getting pregnant periodically on our own but each pregnancy resulted in miscarriage.

by **WaitinginNYC** » Thu Aug 02, 2012 2:48 pm

wow, that's so hard, I cannot even imagine the emotional roller coaster and heartache. I am so sorry. You must be an extremely strong woman to keep going and keeping up hope for so long. I admire that!

by **Ollimaraj** » Thu Aug 02, 2012 3:10 pm

Thank you Waiting, but I feel broken and inadequate because I could not give my DH something (baby) that another woman was able to give him 3 of. I am grateful I had a DD and DS with my XH (exhusband) but I really wanted one with DH. DH is fine with the way things are but he knew how much this meant to me. I'll be fine because God blessed me with raising 5 kids and a supporting DH, and in time I will accept his plan and resume my life with the joy he has provided me with. Eventually our kids will have kids and I plan to spoil those grandchildren, lol.

by **WaitinginNYC** » Thu Aug 02, 2012 3:13 pm

Your kids are lucky to have you

Grandkids will be super fun to spoil!
Good luck Ollie

Welcome Tiffany

oy vey, this is such a long wait, on the 5th I'll only be 10 DPO, hope I get a positive (AF is due on 8/6) I got some little waves of nausea/cramps this afternoon. Hoping this is a good sign, it's a little too early to be getting that from AF...

by **tiffany1987** » Thu Aug 02, 2012 4:32 pm

oli i wanted to say most women i know and im evidence of it so is dh and my kids that alot of women get pregnant when not trying so just focus on u and the dh and maybe god will bless u.
