I think I'm 11 DPO but my ovulation tests were not very conclusive to me and my cycle just hasn't been the same since the MC in Feb. I used to be 26-28 day cycles. Lately, I've been 21 days. I've been feeling sick the last few days, nausea, cramping, lower back aches. I hate POAS because it's always a disappointment and they are expensive so I usually say that I'll wait until AF is officially late to test. But since I'm not sure when AF is coming anymore it's hard to say what late is. I bought a test on my way home from work last night and it was so very negative. WTF.
My beta on Wednesday was positive! It was over 500 at 16dpo. I’m scheduled for a repeat on Friday, hopefully things go the way they should. I’m happy, but I can’t really feel truly excited yet. If people don’t mind, I’ll hang around for a couple days before moving on if things are good.
woohoo @lin0442! That's an awesome number! I understand not feeling excited, but I am rooting so hard for you

@rowedking6@justarius ugh I am so sorry guys. I hope this next cycle is the one that works for you!
@lin0442 congratulations! Praying that everything goes well for you!

My beta today showed a good rise from 70 to 202 today! Dr. Called personally to discuss the plan from here. I'm going to start on progesterone, get another beta on Monday, and our first ultrasound next Friday. I'm still so nervous, but starting to accept that this is actually real!
Thanks so much to everyone who has showed me support during my time here. It means the world to me.
*lurking* Huge congrats to @lin0442 and @sagems10! If you want to join the private TTCAL grads board, I put the directions in the spoiler:
You have to request to join the board first, then I (or one of the other mods) will approve your request. You should be able to find it on Page 3 of "All Groups" under "Community." Feel free to send me a PM if you have trouble finding it.
Thank you for the well wishes. My repeat beta this morning was very good, so as scared as I am to move on, I probably should. You ladies have been so great and I truly hope all of you get the rainbows you so deserve.
Thank you for all the support, you are lifesavers.
Moving on over to TWW. We made a valiant effort this past week. I think my cycle is still a little screwy from the MC and D&C but I’m pretty sure we are past O. Hoping this is our month.
I’m 10DPO and am apparently possessed because even though I can feel AF coming, I used a FRER this morning. BFN. We’re waiting on a call from the clinic to start the next round of IVF, but it will most likely be 2-3 months.
@bakerstreetboys so sorry about the negative, maybe it's still early?
AFM, my FB memory today was us announcing our pregnancy a year ago today. What a punch in the gut. Next week marks the 1 year of our second miscarriage. It's hard to believe it's been a year...
@Kath525 sorry about the upcoming anniversary. We just passed 2 yrs from our first loss. Today was a hard day me as I was busy this past week with ****TW**** DS Birthday that I forgot until this morning and then all those sad feelings rushed in.
@Mack2342 Thanks. Sorry you got hit hard with those feelings. It sucks. This is the week we were due with our second loss. I’m not very pleasant to be around right now....
@bakerstreetboys that’s totally understandable. These anniversary dates are hard. I know they will get less painful but they really sting. I hope you start to feel better soon!
I’m also just a peach right now. I started spotting today so tomorrow is CD1 it’s approximately 5,000 degrees outside and my school year is about to start (which is always stressful and I forget how insane it is every year)
Thanks everyone for the support! I'm very thankful for you ladies. It's nice to talk to people who get it. @Mack2342@bakerstreetboys sorry about your anniversaries as well. @mwmiller4 sorry about AF
So I POAS on Thursday (9 DPO) and Friday (10 DPO) they were both BFN. So Saturday morning I decided to POAS again because we were going to Kenny Chesney at Gillette and I was going to drink if it was negative, well it was a very faint BFP. I took a digital when we got home that night at like 3am and it said pregnant. I have major nausea, headaches, mild abdominal discomfort, increased fatigue, and a heightened sense of smell. I talked to my OBGYN and she did not want to do betas because she didn't want me to obsess over a number, but did want me to have an ultrasound at the start of 7 weeks to check for a heartbeat. I had a very small amount of dark brown blood on Tuesday with some mild cramping/abdominal discomfort (? implantation bleeding) and she did not want to get betas at that point either and was not too concerned. Well today after a coughing fit/gagging over smelling coffee, I went pee and some bright red blood was on the TP, so now I am waiting for a call back to see what the next step is.
@MelissaMay82 congrats! LAst time around for me I got betas done and just if they were normal range bc I didn’t want to obsess about number. Also it is normal to have some spotting so hopefully it’s nothing a
@MelissaMay82 fx for you that everything is a-okay!!

I bargained with myself last night. I decided that I would take my temp this morning and test if - and only if- my temp supported the potential for a positive. It did (highest temp I've ever had). I tested. It was faint, but its positive. I'm only 12dpo so faint makes sense. I'm freaking the freak out. After the MC DH are feeling cautious. I'll be testing with a FRER tomorrow morning since today was a cheapie. And then likely again when we get home from camping with my fam.

We got back from our weekend a few hours ago—it was super fun and relaxing and yet I am exhausted—which just makes me feel old
@Kath525 yay for ovulating! Fx this is your month
