@vlagrl29 maybe there is nothing to fix but maybe they can offer more insight and maybe you can do medicated cycle to give you more follicles in hopes that one will stick! I didn’t think there was something wrong when I went I just wanted to speed things up since I’m over 40.

So I got a positive test on Christmas Eve, and then a positive digital the next day, and went for blood work on the 27th & again yesterday. My numbers look good (HCG 239 and 603, progesterone was 29 & 30). Cautiously hopeful for this one
Thanks so much everyone. I really appreciate the support. I hope it's ok if I continue checking in with you all - not to share my stuff, but to follow everyone's journey. I am rooting for you all so hard.
@BusinessWife I was just going to pm you and see how you were doing! Eeeek! I'm so happy everything is looking good for you!!!! Keep us, and by us, I mean me updated!!!

Still a dirty lurker because this was my first home. So excited to see all the BFP’s! Congrats! Tagging @NewMommyCoop so invites can be made to the private graduate group if you guys want to join. Also, a little selfishly, I’m surprisingly back in the first tri thread there and it’s so slow. I would love new friends!!

stuck in the box...my post seems to have disappeared! The Pregnany After Loss board seems slow, is there another group? I didn’t post much here because I was trying to think as little as possible about TTC, but now I’m freaking out frequently and thinking about it constantly!
Hey all. I’ve been gone for a while after having surgery to remove products that weren’t removed properly during my first D&C. I’m officially back in the game now though and in the TWW. However, Hubby wants to wait before doing any medicated cycles and I only got pregnant after taking femara the last time. Not too hopeful at this point but I guess we will see.
@BusinessWife No, CD1 today. I figured I’d been out for the past couple days with my negative tests. I’m usually very regular, but as they say, you’re only regular until you’re not! Thank you for checking in, though, and I hope you have an amazing and healthy 2018.
@mrsjcrane Welcome back! Hopefully you have a short stay here
Played games with some friends last night. One of whom is 10 weeks pregnant. She went on and on about how she was regretting their decision to get pregnant. How much pregnancy sucks etc. This is a friend who struggled with infertility with her first kid and got pregnant really fast this time around. She also knows what I've been through this year. I couldn't believe she was saying these things to me when she knows my history. It was really hard to sit there and listen to that. I don't think I'll be hanging around with her any time soon...ugh... On a side note it's a new year, so hopefully this year will be different for us all!
@kath525. Good for you, setting a boundary going forward with her. You definitely don't need to sit there and listen to that crap ((((hugs)))) I'm sorry she was so oblivious and insensitive
That is horrible @Kath525. Don't hang out with her for a while, I agree. If you need to vent about your pregnancy, fine I guess but know your audience FFS. How self centered of her!
@lumosmaxima and @BusinessWife Congratulations! Such a great way to start the new year! Hoping for a h&h 9 months for you both. I’m currently waiting for AF. If I’m right and my cycle is its typical 28 days (I am one of the few textbook women out there!) it will arrive on Thursday in 2 days. I am trying to be patient and decided not to test before I’m actually “late.” But DH and I decided that we were going to stop officially trying and just see what happens these next few months. I get far too anxious if I’m actively trying.
@lumosmaxima and @BusinessWife Congratulations! What a great way to start the new year off! @vlagrl29 Sorry for the BFN and AF @kath525 It is always shocking when people that struggle with infertility come out and say these things. I'm sorry that you had to sit through that.
AFM: I'm 15DPO with BFN, but no AF. We'll be doing 2 monitored cycles to make sure everything is balanced out and then likely moving on to IVF. I have decided to take a break from the bump for now. I truly do love seeing everyone's updates and the support that you all have given, but I do think that having it always available makes me constantly think about TTC and adds additional stress. Of course I will probably still log on here and there to check how you all are doing. Wishing you all BFPs in the meantime

@honeybeebub Thanks for the Congrats! I'm sorry you feel like you may be out this cycle, and that ivf may be in your future. Of course, take all the time you need, and good for you if you manage to find a good balance between ttc and "real life." I'm not sure I've done the greatest with that, tbh. Lol. But feel free to PM me if you find yourself heading down the ivf route, or any time. :)
