TTC after Miscarriage or Loss ~ April 08 #2

[ll80]

HI ladies

Thanks for all the well wishes, was only a mild stroke so physically he is not too much worse off than he was before. It's his dementia thats taken a beating but he seems to recall more everyday, worse but better at the same time, but that's how it goes with these sort of things.

Back at home now, got the results of my blood test last week, 147 HCG at 3w6d so that's not too bad, been feeling a bit nervous about it all lately, *****t!ing myself to be exact, I dont think I will feel any more at ease until I pass the 8week mark when baby stopped growing last time.

I'm really reluctant to move onto the pg after m/c threads, although I have posted a few times feels like I am jinxing myself if that makes any sense at all. Plus your all just so lovely and I want you all to be in there with me.

anyways....
Hiya to all new ladies, I hope your stay here is a short one and you get those BFP's.

AJC sorry bout af *fingers srossed* for next month.

pbstar *big Hugs* you're such a strong woman, *fingers crossed8 for you too.

plc, I guess if it's doctors orders you better keep those legs up and ready all week hehe I'm a bit cheeky!

tempus GL with the specialist, will all go well and you'll be UTD before you know it.

Big waves and hugs for Angel Babies and Nickster, hope you're both well and jiggy.

Hope you all have a good weekend

...Laura

plc--I love your thought about invading the PAML thread! Upon better inspection of my chart at FF, it's next Thurs. that I should test (or when AF is due). Not sure if I actually O'ed on the day that the calendar said I was supposed to, so I'm not sure if I should poas any sooner than that. Had been thinking that maybe on Sat. I might, but I just don't want to get too ahead of myself. Last time was so much easier--was like a week late before I realized I was a week late! I wish the week went by as quickly as the weekends! Glad to hear your feeling like your back in the game--game on!

ll80--Glad to hear about bt results! Also glad you want to stick around here for a while--I don't blame you. It's the same for me (when I get my BFP) I just want to get past that first 8 wks. then I think I'll calm down a bit--I'm already stressed about it and I'm not even there yet!

Emmy-Lou--Hope AF packs her bags quickly so you can get back in the game, as well!

mmteacher--Hope the clomid works it's wonders! Good luck!

Feeling very confused right now. Yesterday I noticed watery discharge (sorry, ladies, tmi!) and when I entered that on my chart at fertility friend, it popped up that yesterday was probably my most fertile day. Prior to that it said my fertile days were 6th-8th, with possible O on 9th. BD'd last on 14th, which I know doesn't take me out of the game completely as the spermies can supposedly live for 3-5 days, but all I feel right now is dread. DF was very sweet and said that for a girl your supposed to BD the 3 days before, so I hope he's right for a change! (Usually it kills me when he's right, but this time I truly hope he is!). Does anyone know if the spotting I had, which I hoped was from implantation, could actually have been from O'ing instead? Now I'm really not sure when I should test, or when to expect AF! This is so frustrating! I tend to like to be in control, so the fact that it's completely out of my hands is killing me! HELP!!!!!

Ok, so I POAS and there is kinda something. I used Crystal Clear which makes a cross, I have seen a lot of negatives over the past 6 mths, usually the negative line is dark all the way across, on this one, there is a hole in the middle of the negative line. I can JUST make out an outline of the positive line. It's like an invisible line is there, but DH and I agree there is definately something when we hold it up to the window. I am only 10dpo so hcg must be very low. Hopefully I will get a proper line over the next couple of days. I am taking it as a positive so I have to go off the medication I am (that's why I needed to test so early - Drs orders).

Jen - if you did O yesterday, you are definately in with a chance, pg 4-5 days out is definately possible. But your fertile window may still be open (up to 24 hrs after O) so BDing now might work too. Good luck.

Big hi to everyone else.
