Any other DISers trying to concieve? Reread OP for the QOTD!

[left210]

Well according to my CPFM I am on day 2 of my LH surge which means I should be ovulating tomorrow. Wish me luck. I had a dr. appt last week to see what my next step is but the dr. got called out on a delivery so I am rescheduled for this afternoon. Hopefully I will get pregnant this month and wont need to do anything else.

 

[AllyandJack]

Hey, Lisa, did you get your Ovidrel? I get my stuff from Freedom Drug. They're up in Byfield, so I usually stop by and get it, but they deliver overnight and I've even had them deliver same day by courier. I hope CVS got what you needed.

Beck....that is so funny. Tests and tampons - what more does a girl need? Have fun on your vaca either way.

QOTD: Well, as anyone who has dealt with infertility will tell you, it tests a relationship in ways you can't even imagine. We've made it this far, so short of abuse and infidelity, there isn't much that can happen to us that can compete with what we've dealt with! It'll take a lot of stress off the relationship, which sounds strange since having a baby usually ADDS stress. But, as soon as all of this crap is over, a big weight will be lifted. I'm sure it'll be replaced with NEW stress, but it'll be a big relief when this is over.

ok, I hope this is ok to post this question for anyone who can answer its. How early can you get morning sickness. Hubby and I are trying for our 2nd child and we bd'd one day last week and on sat. I should have Ovulated on sat morning.. this morning I woke up fine but i just went to go eat lunch and the smell of food hit, me and I almost puked. I am so nauseated right now, my eyes are watering... with my daughter I charted for 3 months before I got prego and I new I was pg by my chart. this time,i didnt chart mainly because the online place i charted now charges a huge fee to use their message board and they didnt even let anyone know, they just started charging one day. what do you think, is it too early to be morning sickness?

I think the earliest you can get morning sickness is 7-10 days after ovulation once implantation occurs. Until that point your body doesn't even know it's pg yet.
Hope it's not that nasty stomach virus going around!

 

[LisaB]

Went in for the insemination today and another one tommorrow. Took the overdril last night. They could have ordered the generic for the other one but I found out yesterday that I needed it right away. The pharmacist did meet me though which was good. I will see on 5/29 if I am pg

 

[helenabear]

Thanks for the good thoughts. I was just really not in the best mood yesterday!

Lisa, wishing you all the best with it!

Beck, I am so jealous of your trip! Though I just got my DVC confirmations for Oct today. At this point 5 months pregnant or not, I would go

QOTD: I know it will change things. My DH is super with children though, so I can imagine that this will add stress, but bring us together. We baby sat yesterday for a couple with a 2 year old, and honestly, it was so cute to watch him. I think that will help me grow to love him more (if that is possible). We've gone through financial stresses before (when he was laid off) so I can't imagine anything worse than that. I know it will test us, but I am positive it would bring us closer.

 

[DMickey28]

Hi Girls ~ I have been kinda bummed today and haven't posted but I am better now.

QOTD: I can't begin to imagine how this will affect our relationship. I think it will bring us closer together and mature us, if that makes sense. We do well for ourselves now but we aren't the most frugal. We have made great strides in the last year and continue to do so... Our lifestyle is very condusive for a family. We don't go out a lot and party. Our vacations are cruises that are also good for kids. DH is great with his cousins kids and loves babies. I think he will wonderful and i will continue to love him more everyday for it.

So my day...
We are moving to Florida in late June. It's for DH's job and I would have to leave my job b/c we don't have an office in S. Florida, at least for the job that I do. I like my job and I make decent money for it, but it's not what I want out of a career. I love the people I work with, so the move would be hard on me. No one at the office knew yet except my supervisor who is also a close friend. So the other supervisor told me that there was a supervisor position open I should apply for. I went to our job postings and decided to look for Florida. To make a longer story short I saw a job for another department that would be a lateral move for me open in the office in S. Florida. So I applied and spke with the hiring manager today and set up an interview for next week when we are down house hunting. Before work this AM I took a EPT +/- test and saw a faint + but I have had problems with the +//- test before and didn't think anything of it. I stopped on the way home at Target and bought a FRER, which I also don't trust b/c I have never seen anything but a snowy white plain with a pink river on the right. So at 7:30 I took a FRER after three hours of holding my pee. I got a faint second line right away!!! I can't believe it. Dh even saw it though it was faint. I don't want to believe it until I see one tomorrow get a little darker and I miss AF on Thursday.

I have had loads of cramps today, so bad I put the seat heater on the car and it's 60 outside. That worried me b/c I don't get cramps until the day 1 of AF and she is three days out. I hope thtat my temp goes up tomorrow AM...

Keep your fingers crossed for me...

 

[Jen_in_NH]

DMickey28 - Good luck!! I have my finger's crossed for you (which is making typing kind of hard, by the way)

Jen

 

[AllyandJack]

DMickey.... A line is a line.

helenabear....I'm with you on the vacation. I plan to go to Super Soap - 5 months pregnant or not. The only thing that would stop me is if my doctor told me I couldn't fly. I have a friend that flew to Rome at 26 weeks, so I think my short trip to FL should be OK. DH is freaked out about me being pregnant and getting bumped around by people. I'll just wave my big stomach around and use it as a battering ram.

Lisa....You're better off with the Ovidrel. The generic is Pregnyl and you have to mix it. It's a real PITA. It also gives me a rash....not just an itchy rash, a big welt that feels like a burn. If you can get away with the Ovidrel, it's the better choice. Are you going for blood on the 29th? Will you test before that?


Still waiting.....I have another week at least on the birth control pills before I start shooting up. I was going to bring this to the hospital at my egg retrieval and give it to my embryologist.

 

[DMickey28]

Thanks Jen... I find that when I need to type I cross my eyes and uncross my fingers. Makes typing easier but then I am not sure what I am typing!

 

[beckmrk04]

DMickey28- I am crossing my fingers too! RIGHT after I finish typing this!!!

AllyandJack- Baby Makin Music that is TOO funny! Hey- whatever works girls!!

Well I did not ovulate today but still have an LH surge according to my monitor. So maybe tomorrow I will ovulate. I had my dr. appt yesterday and he wants to test me for Polycystic ovarian syndrome. I have already been diagnosed with endometriosis and had two surgeries for that. Does anyone have PCOS that can give me some insight. I have to wait until after this month and if not pregnant then go in for the testing. The dr. said there are alot of things you can do for PCOS so that seemed positive but I guess I am still confused because of already having endometriosis. He also increased my clomid and said if I have PCOS then he will put me on Meformin along with the Clomid. Thanks for listening.

 

[LisaB]

It is so nice to have someone else who is going through the same thing that you are. I took the second insemination today DH count was 105 millon yesterday 95 millon. Boy was it a b**ch today--My cervix is very high and they had a hard time getting the needle in even with a snowman spectulum (sp).

My PCOS was diagnosed by trans-******l ultrasound, to detect the cysts on my ovaries, and by a fasting glucose blood test. The blood test detected mild insulin resistance. I started Metformin on January 7th and found out I was PG on January 28th.

Good luck to you.

That is very encouraging. Thanks.

Hi everyone!

GL to everyone going through with various treatments this week. Sending baby pixie dust your way!

And DMickey, good luck with the +HPT! Let us know what happens.

I took a HPT on Mother's Day (I think I was 12 DPO) and I got a BFN, but I wasn't too bummed. It just meant I could enjoy that mimosa I was planning to serve with brunch!

AF didn't come yesterday or today and my temps were still high this morning, so I took another HPT this morning and it was also BFN. Sometimes I get AF at 14 DPO, so I guess I'm only late by a day. I'm pretty sure we didn't have sex the right days this month, so I'm not holding out much hope, but we'll see!

If she doesn't come by Thursday, I'm going to buy a digital test since these internet cheapies aren't helping a sista out much. Message to AF, either come or don't - just hurry up and make a decision!!!

 

[helenabear]

Carla, I'm laughing at that thought of using your big stomach to push people around. Actually I figured a 5 months, you're usually not all that big so it isn't quite as noticable. I do think it is cute that your DH is a bit worried though

Best wishes to all this week going in for/doing various treatments and tests. I hope a few more BFP will be coming your way!

on a totally unrelated note... I totally hate it when I wake up far too early

 

[aces_babydoll]

I think the earliest you can get morning sickness is 7-10 days after ovulation once implantation occurs. Until that point your body doesn't even know it's pg yet.
Hope it's not that nasty stomach virus going around!

Yeah, That's what I heard too. Hopefully it's because your preganant and not just sick w/ something.

 

[DMickey28]

HI Girls I am only 14DPO right now and getting progressively darker (thought still very faint) BFP on the FRER's and then got a faint BFP on the AccuClear. Digital tests are still BFN.

AF would be due today and she is always here between 8AM and 11AM so I keep running to the bathroom but there is NOTHING. Check CP and CM and NOTHING so that's GREAT NEWS. Now I just need to keep hoping that my hCG levels go up. I am living with the Mantra that a line is a line...so hopefully they just get darker and sometime this weekend I get a PREGNANT with the Digital.

Vettechick - When is AF due?

 

[mickeyboat]

A line is a line is a line. Congrats! When I was testing all the time, I used to hold the tests up to a light bulb to read even the faintest lines!

Denae

 

[helenabear]

Congratulations! I saw your post yesterday and I agree... a line is a line. I hear that false positives aren't usually likely, so I am sure the digitals will read with a BFP soon!
