Hello ladies! I was glad to see your group on here - can I join in? I officially have one week left - am on 6dpo today - will test on Valentines Day as well... I've had two very early m/c in the past - took Clomid for a couple months last year, but my doctor (I think) didn't really know what he was doing. Since found a much better dr and she put me on baby aspirin (to help with clotting) and am on my second round of Clomid (due to low progesterone levels). My prog levels were back up last month - and I go in tomorrow to have them checked again. I have no symptoms - I used to think I had all kinds in my tww, but now I've realized that I was just trying too hard to find something - and hoping too much. Now I'm just going one day at a time - and praying for a miracle on Valentines Day! Good luck to you all as well!!

I am 4dpIUI...my last one...I had 2 back to back....it is almost mid of 2WW, if you would like to count me in.

Jen,  Poor you sounds like you have been through it.
I am not sure if I will be allowed to take them then, as I have a blood disorder I dont clot well so I have to have drugs when I have surgery. Would that mean the drugs to clot my blood when I had egg collection could cause a early mc? i had to take medication after as well just to make sure I didnt bleed.
Worried now!!
love chrissie x x

Thanks Charlene,

I think it's important we stay healthy and positive. I really do believe that G-D has a plan for us and that it will happen when it is supposed to. It's easier said than done, I know. Last month i was really bummed out when AF came, but a week later I came down with pnemonia and was so thankful that i wasn't preggo because my body was so weak and it would've increased my chances of problems. All i can hope is that this month will be the one.

My best friend believes in the book THe Secret and in August she stopped taking her pill and said, "i think i'll get pregnant this month." I thought she was nuts...it couldn't be that easy! Then, BAM she got pregnant 3 weeks later. She said she knew it would happen because she never allowed doubt into her mind. She just believed that if she put it out in the universe that it would absolutely happen. Now, i am learning to do this and it is hard because i have been disappointed many times, but i went into this cycle beleiving that this was my month, so we'll see!! :)

Stay strong girls!!

HI gilrs I am 12DPO today.  I have some symptoms but they could be symptoms of af too.  The only weird symptom is I've had a few episodes where I felt dizzy, not like I was going to pass out but off balance.  Dh and I have been trying since Sept.  I had a m/c at 7 weeks in June.  I also tested positive for compound heterozygous MTHFR so I am also taking a baby aspirin and Folnate vitamins.  Good luck girls!

[Jen7900]

Lzzy is right...baby asprin prevents clotting between at uterus which can help prevent miscarriage. And since i've already had one the doc is being more conservative. The extra folic acid (2mg pills) is to supplement the vitamins because I have Crohns Disease/Colitis and don't absorb all of the nutrients that pass through my intestines. I had half my colon removed one year ago (literally today...its my year anniv of that horrible surgery) and have been healthy (knock on wood) since then. Still the docs think the surgery created the problems with my tubes not functioning right. I guess we'll just have to wait and see! xxx

hoping you get a lovely valentines BFP x

[jenandjon]

5 dpo with no symptoms yet, but amazingly...still positive this month...testing on Valentine's Day

[Chrissieanddan]

Love Chrissie x

I am 9DPO, beta on 2/11 also. I am taking IM injections of progesterone in oil, Del estrogen, Pre natal vits and baby aspirin. I take the prenatal vitamins all the time. It is my everyday vitamin...lots of folic acid. I think the baby aspirin promotes good blood flow to the uterus and placenta. http://yourtotalhealth.ivillage.com/baby-aspirin-in-ivf.html. Anyway good luck to everyone...fingers, toes, crossed xxxxx. baby dust baby dust baby dust.

hi honey
I dont really have any symptoms yet, I tested last sunday got a BFN obviously but it really upset me, I am now scared to test monday lol,

The only thing I feel is a bit sick & light headed.
I have been checking my nipples as well as my sister said they change no change there either.. I am on progesterone suppositories although they were bloating me so they told me change & use as pessary (sorry if TMI ha ha). It has made the bloating go, also taking folice acid, why are you having baby asprin?

Sending loads of baby dust to you all x x x

[Jen7900]

I'm 7 days past IUI (last Tues and Wed) and don't have any symptoms . I was prego once and miscarried at 9 weeks in Jan 2007 (a blighted ovum), but i wasn't trying and had no idea until the 6th week when i noticed my swollen ankles and bloatedness (is that a word?!). I just noticed some small bumps around my nipples today (sorry if TMI), but i'm not gonna make anything out of that. Like some of you, I have been convinced that I was preggo in the past few months and have been disappointed. This was my first try with IUI and i have been on Clomid for 2 months. I also started progesterone suppositories, folic acid, and baby asprin.

May the next week go by as smoothly and painlessly as possible!

[stillwaiting52]

I am 9 dpo and 6 hours, lol! I feel bloated too! I will not not test before 2/13 if AF hasn't already come! Good luck all, half way there!!!  I use to have 28 day cycles but now they have been 30 with Femara. I uses a trigger shot for the second time this month, last time I tried a trigger my cycle was only 26 days. Has anyone else experioed shortened cycles with the trigger shot?

[jzyj]

I am in the same boat as you (dpo8) due test 2/11. my 5th IUI and the 3rd on Clomid. I was so convinced that I was pg last few times and I don't trust myself any more. good luck everyone!

[sam75]

hi im 10dpo, im feeling like af is on her way already and im not due till sunday. ??? goodluck everyone.

[jessbob]

Hi, I'd like to join your group.  

This is our 2nd month ttc au naturale.  I'm 6 DPO and I have sore bbs on the sides but that's it.  I felt like this last month too but AF came.  It's weird b/c I haven't had sore bbs like this before or at least that I can remember!   So IDK what to make of it.  

Well, here's hoping for all of us!  

jessbob

[NovemberHope]

In the exact same boat as you (7DPO), except we are trying au naturale.  We miscarried in October and have been trying again for #1 ever since.  SSBD to you! Feeling any symptoms? I don't think I am, but it is too early, right?
