@pumpkinpancake. My cycle was way off after my first MC and took about 3 cycles before it started to normalize which was a new normal. After my 2nd loss, cycle appeared to return back to normal after the first one. I wouldn't about anything yet. Probably body just trying to find it's normal.
@Mack2342 - can you link the coq10 you got on amazon? I'd really appreciate it. I'm going to go ahead and use up what I bought with the 100mg but it will go quickly as I'll be doubling up for DH and I. Besides DHEA which I'm not going to mess with right now what else are you taking?
@vlagrl29. Kirkland Ubiquinol 200mg 90 Softgels, 8 Ounce https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FY26GBA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_iKyW3J18zSbm9 Im taking two each day. I was only going to take 200mg but since RE said to take 400 I'm taking two. DH is only taking one. Not taking the DHEA yet. I'm waiting until next cycle if need it. Says you should stop taking both once you find out you are pregnant.
Thanks! @Mack2342. I'm getting out dhs pill calendar thing and loading him up for the week. It's so down to a science now! He asked me today when I will be ripe lol. I told him we should BD tonight and every other night thru the 20th. I'm glad he is on board. I told him if that's what we should do with clomid I sure want to try that schedule without clomid so I know we really did our best!
@crystal321@Mack2342 I figured that was the case. I'm hoping with my next cycle, my LP gets a little longer (unless, of course, FF was wrong and I didn't actually O).
Never thought I'd be happy to have a period, but I'm just happy AF finally came so that I know things are getting back to normal, and so I can be officially unbenched!
8 or 9 dpo (I did not track this month, since we had limited bd options due to dh traveling) and I am having some abdominal cramps, no bleeding or spotting. It might be pms starting
I'm going to go here now. CD 17 smiley face CD 15 am. We had good timing this month and I know I had a follicle forming. I'll get blood drawn next Monday about 7dpo. I think my OB will be checking progesterone- but I'm hoping she does a blood test for hgc- IF I'm lucky this month it would be super cool to know early. Here I am- getting my hopes too high this month... I HATE TWW. It F@*s with my head.
Ladies, I have a question as to early pregnancy symptoms: is it possible to feel very nauseated 2 days before missed period? I am very very sick today, no fewer, no stomach pain and ate the same dinner as my DH, who is feeling fine. I started having morning sickness in 6th week in my first pregnancy (that i lost) and my betas were normal at that time ? I kind of want to avoid POAS this early , since I am not mentally ready to cope with possible CP. I was wondering if it could be a new PMS symptom, but so far I am not spotting and my cramps stopped at 9 dpo.
it's possible @aga31 - with DD I was sick to my stomach way before a positive test. I didn't even know you could get morning sickness that early in. I thought I had anxiety that was upsetting my stomach. How many DPO are you? I would go ahead an test if you're at least 12dpo.
@vlagrl29 thanks for comforting words! I am exactly at 12 dpo. That's exactly how it feels, like an anxiety induced nausea. I will still wait until I miss my period few days to test. I will act until then as if I am KU, at least I will be happy for few days
@aga31 with my last loss I started getting bouts of nausea about a week before my BFP however my BFP didn't show up until I was a week late. After that loss I also had nausea as a PMS symptom for the next 3 cycles and it would show up about a week before. I also would get sore boobs. FX your symptoms are actual pregnancy symptoms!!
@aga31 I have my fingers crossed for you that this is a real symptom! Unfortunitly for me- ever sense my MC at the end of March nausea and sore breasts are a new PMS symptom for me. I am someone who never would get nauseated before this so it is quite unsettling. I've for my FX for you!
Thank you ladies for your support! Fortunately I will be camping in beautiful Lassen from Friday for few days, so even if AF arrives it will be in a gorgeous setting
Can it just be Friday, please? That's when I told myself I would test. I am having symptoms similar to the pregnancy I lost and get myself excited...but then I've seen several ladies post in this thread and others that they had pregnancy symptoms during the TWW after their MCs. I have no idea what my body is doing.
@GeekBeagle symptom spotting is the worst! I actually tried my best not to do it, but it is so hard to ignore vomiting in the morning. FX for both of us!
damn it, just started spotting it seems like I will have to live with crazy nausea every month now, since apparently it's my new PMS symptom. bleh, just bleeeh ....
aga31 and GeekBeagle After my first MC, I definitely had some awful nausea right before and during AF. I felt so ill one day at work a coworker (who knew about my MC) asked if it were possible I was PG again. Had I not been second day into AF and bleeding like a stuck pig, I probably would've thought maybe I were!

my nausea during pregnancy was so mild compared to this crappy PMS I used to have mostly emotional symptoms before, but who knows what is happening with my body now. I am just really happy we are going for a camping trip tomorrow, so it will balance out the AF sadness. Also looking forward to my CD 12 visit to rule out any uterine adhesions. Thanks lady for your support!
@aga31 I sorry AF arrived. This all really sucks. I hope your camping trip will bring some enjoyment and balance!
@mack2342 you're always a few days ahead of me! I routing for you and have all of my fingers crossed!
How's is everyone else doing around here?
This is literally the crappiest TWW Ive ever had... I'm about 4-5 dpo and came down with norovirus the day before yesterday. It's been rough. Some of you inspired me to start temping and even though I was around O I started to temp early this week... day 3 of temping and I shot up to 101.... and then the other symptoms of norovirus started. Yuk. I'm finally feeling slightly better but thinking I'll forget temping this cycle and try again next if I have no luck. Good news I lost some weight!
@katie121209 I'm only on folic acid and daily vitamins. Nothing like these other ladies... I would like to but just haven't put the time aside to look into it. Wow about your DH being off caffeine- is that for fertility? I mentioned to DH about reducing his beer intake and it was as if the world was going to end.... never the less THATS not happening
thanks @sprkls8506, I'm actually staring to feel better. I was just able to eat my first meal in two days!
@aga31 I POAS this morning. BFN. It is possible I tested too early, as I didn't get a BFP with my loss until 4 days later. So, I guess we'll see what happens in the next couple days.
What's funny is a woke up from a dream where I got a BFP right before I tested.
@jchpg thanks girl! I'm at 9DPO. No urge to test yet but I'm sure it will sneak up over the wkd. I'm usually good until around 10. Hope you are feeling better and congrats on loosing weight! You mentioned having DH cut back on beer. ****TW**** when we were trying for DS, both DH and I consumed a lot of alcohol on weekends and the only thing I took was prenatals. I basically ate whatever I wanted and drank caffeine. I got pregnant in 3 months with no complications. And I was 40 when I delivered him. It's only been since my losses and the fact that I'm 42 that I've changed diet slightly, I only have one cup of caffeine a day and rarely consume alcohol, DH is same. I've added supplements for myself and DH but basically because I don't have time on my side and I want to make sure I give it 100% everything. I'm not sure I would have changed anything if I had more time on my side.
@GeekBeagle sorry about the BFN. Hopefully it's too early
@GeekBeagle sorry about the BFN, with my last pregnancy I didn't get my BFP until 14/15 DPO! @aga31 camping this time of year is always so pretty, I hope it makes you feel better about AF showing up @Mack2342 I'm only 8DPO and the POAS urge is realllllll
TGIF ladies!!!!
DS born 04/22/15, Pregnant again 03/01/17 however loss due to PPROM at 20+6 weeks now TTC rainbow
@shri929 it is. I usually start going nuts at 10dpo but I'm feeling a little more relaxed and I think it's because I'm starting to lose hope. I haven't totally given up but have accepted that it might not happen. I'm with you on TGIF except I'm duty officer at work so I'm stuck here until 5...usually done at 330 and work from home most Fridays
TW Child mentioned . . when we were doing fertility tx for my first pregnancy his morphology was very poor. After a year he finally cut out caffeine and two months later we were pregnant which is when he would have been making new sperm. Can't 100 percent say it was due to that, but he was drinking tons of coffee and soda.
OK, so forget what I said earlier about the BFN. I had used an Internet cheapie and after 3 minutes, it had been stark white. I walked away and left the test and pee cup sitting out and went to take care of DS. An hour later (I'm gross) I went to clean it up and the test had a faint line on it. So I started freaking out, but thought that it might just be an evaporation line. I had also read some reviews on Amazon about these tests giving false positives. I had somewhere to be and was running late, so I just figured I'd test on the Clearblue I had when I got home. Well, I just did and the Clearblue test is very clearly positive! I tried another Internet cheapie and waited the full five minutes and it has a very, very faint line.
I am in shock right now and am hoping that I am indeed pregnant and it sticks this time.
