Renee~ Femara is a pill. Same idea as clomid. Take day 3-7. No increased risk of multiples and no bad side effects (like clomid). It is actually used for people with breast cancer. SO...... I am excited to try something else. I had thin lining caused by clomid, but I did release an egg. So bitter sweet I guess. OH well, next month. 2 days until testing for you.... I cant wait for some good news.
Ange~ That sucks about your fam being pregnant. I always feel that way at work. Everyone there is pregnant. I just cant get away from it -so my holiday was great bc I didnt have to see them all....lol What is new with you? Do you have any more tests or are you ready for IVF?
Vidia~ Great news about o. I hope this is your month. How long have you been trying?
Jade & Renee, Thank you girls for your advice. I will do that as soon as I can I will start trying. I mean after this af comes I am all ready for and I should start planning right away. I know that it might take a while for me to get pregnant again. I don't know that I am so lucky to get pregnant right away but will see what happens hope that this time I don't take long. I will do my best so that I can get that bfp soon. I will continue to take my temps and my prenatal vitamins and start taking green tea aswell because I know that it helped me last time. I will also buy more of those opk so I can get a better idea of when I will be O.
Ange, I know what you mean girl. It seems that everyone else is pregnant except us. :/ I don't know whats going on but lets keep our hopes up and have the faith that our turn will be coming sooner than we think. I beleive in miracles and I know it will happen to us. Lets be positive. We are not to sure yet but my dh sister might be pregnant because she has that look but she hasn't told us anything about it. Another one is my best friend and she just gave birth to her third child and it's a girl she had her very early this morning and I am happy for her but can't understand why it's not me. ALso my aunt is pregnant with her third one as well and she is due in February so it seems that everyone is pregnant except me and they are healthy pregnancies and I don't know why? I know what you all mean about everyone else being pregnant except us, why is that? But soon our turn will come, lets have faith sisters, everything is possible. Ange I will wait for this af to come and then I will start trying again.
Leslie, Stay relax and you'll get good news. I can't wait to her about your bfp! I am thinking of you girl. It's about time! have faith!
jade- this is my 14 month ttc. I am so glad that I found this site you guys have been really helpful. I am very excited about my O. I am so use to always having a N OPT. I have a feeling that this will be a very good month for a lot of us.
Well, I am convinced that the elevated temp was r/t my anxiety/stress during that particular day. My fertility monitor said "peak" again today, my temp was back to 97.0, and I FINALLY noticed ewcm today! Wow ~ what a rollarcoster ride this is!! Ups and downs, highs and lows! We were finally able to bd tonight, so I am hoping and praying that conception occurred We will keep trying for as long as it takes .......
Lili ~ you are welcome for the advice. I have faith that your re is leading you in the right direction. God is looking out for you and I am praying for you!
Jade ~ I am sorry to hear about the thinning of your lining, but it's def. good news that you o'd! That is a BIG step, for sure! I am praying for you, too!! I did take mucinex this cycle as well as green tea. I am confident that the combination has really helped me with my cm. If this is not my month, I will def. continue with the mucinex/green tea. I will prob. start ovulex too...
Renee ~ I hope this is your month! Keep us informed of your day to day progress/symptoms! I am praying for you! Also, thank you so much for the support. I was totally freaking out when I saw the 98. temp! It totally didn't correlate with my charting/fertility monitor. I am convinced it was stress-related. I hope I am about to O very soon. (fingers crossed!)
Vidia ~ Congratulations on the +opk!! That ROCKS! I am praying for you, girl! Also, thank you so much for the support/advice. I am convinced that the high temp was stress related. I am def. going to rely more on my fm and cm.
Hey everyone! How is everybody's night going? I had a little bit of brown in my cm tonight (sorry tmi) so I'm assuming AF is right around the corner. Oh well, better luck next month!
Ange~ The holidays can be tough when there are lots of other pregnant couples around. I totally understand. My DH has about 5 cousins who are all pg right now, and his great aunt interrogates me about when we're going to have kids every time I see her. It's so frustrating. But it sounds like you handled yourself well. Don't worry, it will be your turn soon.
Renee~ GL testing on Friday! I hope this month is when you get your bfp! You'll have to keep us posted.
Lili~ Thanks for thinking of me! I agree with the others that you should be good to start ttc again, since your dr. said it was okay. However, whether you're ready emotionally to start again is really a personal choice. I know that you will make the right decision, and support you no matter what.
Vidia~ Congrats on the opk and good luck this month!
butterflywishes~ Congrats, it sounds like you o'ed. This month was very confusing for me too with cm, it can be so frustrating sometimes. I'm wishing lots of baby dust your way!
Well, everyone have a good night! In a few days I should be starting another round of clomid , but hopefully it will lead to a bfp eventually.
Well ladies, my temp was 96.5 again this morning which is somewhat bothersome b/c I was sure I o'd yesterday. I think there might be something wrong with my themometer, so I am going to buy another this morning and double check. I first showed the LH surge at about 0800 on 1/2 and ovulation is supposed to occur 24-48 hours after LH surge... so maybe it will occur this morning and my temp will be higher tomorrow morning??? Not sure.. so we will see... Leslieanne ~ I am sorry to hear about poss. af. That is always a bad feeling; but like you said, there is always next month! Thank you for the support, encouragement, and babydust Much love and babydust to you, too!
Jade, thank you for the info. If I need to do IUI in May I will ask about that drug. So will you try that pill next month?
Lili, What was your temp today? You are getting so close.
Butterfly, Relax and take it easy and dont stress about O, a month ago I worried about O and I O late, I think because I was stressing about it. Relax and enjoy bd, this is going to be your month!!!
Leslie, Was you going to do IUI? Does your doc think that is safe to take clomid more that 3 months, My re said she wouldn't let anyone take it more than that. You might want to check on it. I'm sorry if that af coming, keep your head up it will happen, just keep thinking postive until af comes. I'm praying for you.
Well girls I'm on cd 32. I should have started af today, So I guess I'm 1 day late. My lp is always 15 days, if I O on the 19th, I'm 16 dpo. Unless fertility friend.com was right and I O on the 22nd, I'm only 13dpo. My temps yesterday was 98.5, today it was 98.4, I wasnt sleeping well and got up a little earlier. Af usual comes the day my temps drop down to 97.7. If temps are 98.4 or above I will test tommorrow. I'm so afraid to test, I dont want to see that bfn.
I'm praying for all of you girls. Jesus will make our dreams come true in His timing. Listen for God to speak to you and listen and trust in it. God spoke to me sunday in church and told me that He would make my dreams come true, just to trust in Him.
Jade, How are you? getting close to testing? Yeah I have a woman at work too who is pregant and had the same cycle as me and sadly they day I got AF she came in with a bfp stick asking me what does it say she didn't understand it. My IVF is still on hold they have to remove my septum first by day surgery. Also they doubled by synthryoid I need to make sure my levels at at 3 at least before I do IVF.
Lili, I so know what you mean. I try to have faith that it will be my turn one day. But sometime it is just hard cause you want to be in that moment of happiness and glowing as your friend is. My best friend has three kids I was her coach for 2 of them. We had the same doctor and he pulled me aside and told me I was a very strong person to do this with her and that I was very good at it and should become on full time. LOL I think not!!!!!
Leslie, sorry to hear about the spotting and possible AF! Your time will come. Faith is all we have.........

Ange, you sure are strong and I know that you will have success very soon, keep your head up and have faith! I know it gets hard at time but we have to be strong and keep on trying.
Renee, My temps today were 98.3 they are up high again and yesturday night I had ewcm and the night before I was having some pain so I am very sure that O time should be here soon and I will be having af very soon I can't wait! Hey so are you testing tomorrow? I am praying for you sister!
Butterfly, Your temps don't seem right to me but I don't know if you have had those low temps before? Maybe you should buy a new thermometer and see what they are then? I hope that everything gets figure out!
Leslie, I know what you mean about physically being ready I think that I am all ready because it's been two months after my m/c. It was two months this last 2 of January so I am sure ready to start trying again. I just get alittle scared at times and get afraid but I will keep myself positive and have faith that my next pregancy will be a success. If god permits and I get pregnant I will relax and always stay positive. I think that I am all ready to start trying again as soon as this af #2 comes. Also I am sorry about that, hope that it's just implantation bleeding, if not you know that we have to keep on trying and have faith that soon we will al get that bfp. Keep your head up and there is always nex month to try once again. I am thinking of you sister.
Have a great day!
Love you all Lili and thank you for all your advise you all are such a help!
Okay. SO the Dr called today and wanted me to rush in for more bloodwork. I guess I have critically high levels of potassium and my insulin level was less than 1. what ever that means. So there are thinking that they let the blood sit out too long before testing it. Who knows. I hope everything is all right. I will find out tomorrow. How is everyone?
hi All, Wish you all a very happy, healthy and Preggy New year!!
I was busy at work as this saturday we are leaving for our 1 month long trip. I wish all of you lot os baby dust. I am going to take it easy these 2 months as during O I'll be either travelling or visiting friends and family. Will atleast try it once or twice...
I am continuing Fertilityblend, Green tea and EPO supplements.
Don't give up girls... you all are great help and support...
Ange, Thanks for the baby dust, I'm so scared to test. I dont feel preg like I did last time. When will you have that surgrey?
Lili, Yes I'm testing tommorrow if my temps are 98.4 or above, I'm so scared, I just know I'm going to see a bfn, I need to stay postive, I want this so bad and I dont want to get let down like last month. I bet you O, yesterday, if your temps went from 97.9 to 98.3 and then ewcm the day before and O pain. That book I have said the last day of ewcm is the day you O.
Jade, I hope every thing is ok, is this the new doc or old one? I'm praying for you, let us know what you find out.
Postive girl, This will be a time to relax and get your body ready for baby. Will you try on your own a while or do iui? Good luck, have fun on your trip and enjoy life.
Talk to you girls tommorrow, thank you for all your support. Renee
