Nursing Mamas TTC April - Page 3

post #41 of 282
so i'm 12 dpo and still getting bfns/bfms lol. I am not having any boob or nipple tenderness though so do u think that means i'm out?

I often hear moms say that the second they conceived their nipples hurt sooo much during nursing. I am nursing ds right now and they are not sore at all.

Well. I've conceived twice while nursing and my nipples always hurt WAY WAY WAY more when I ovulate than being pregnant -

I know about getting BFNs...ugh, I'm getting STALK WHITE IN YOUR FACE BFNS. Like not even a line to obsess, not an evap, nothing. I'm so depressed about it, I was hoping this month would be our month. Hang in there, it's not over until it's over, right?

Wow how exciting - 3 BFPs this month already and it's barely started! Awesome!

Congratulations to apmama07, edamama, and wildecat!!!!

Socali- yeah my charts always seem to be one day off each other also. Don't know why. But look how good your chart looks! FX!

Hollytheteacher- well i was nursing DD when I conceived DS last time. I had basically no symptoms at all except a few days before I found out, I was sure I had a uti. I even bought an at-home- UTI detection kit, which kept coming up -. I was sure I wasn't pg and was so disappointed, kept getting BFNs. Surprise! So to sum up, no nipple pain whatsoever that I took note of at the time.

Finnegan'smom- speaking of BFNs. I know, right? It's better to even have an evap than nothing. Except last month I had this pink squinter on an IC that got my hopes sky high. I spent a whole day thinking I was pg and had all these symptoms. Only BFNs after that, all my symptoms disappeared in a day or two and AF arrived on time. I was soooo bummed. I think I may think twice over wishing for any evaps from now on! It is cool to see a line- any line! but not to have that much false hope.

kalamos- likewise I am sorry for your losses. I have a 17 month old DS, does that count as older or younger toddler? Yes he nurses still at night and co-sleeps. I do barely sleep some nights, but found temping with a glass basal to be the most accurate regardless of sleep. For me, anyway.

zwitterion- hi, how are you hanging in? Still waiting on that infernal egg?

AM Boring just waiting to finish AF on CD4 here. No fun, really. I am considering not even testing anymore, just waiting to see if my temps stay up for like 9 months... well, at least 18 days. Maybe 15, that would be 3 days past my top LP. No wait, maybe if temp is still up on 12dpo... Or I could test on 11dpo, that's when I got a BFP with my son. Hey, 10dpo should be accurate for those 5-6 day before your period tests, right?
LOL! Well now you know my train of thinking. Who knows what I'll do, but won't read too much into any one squinter from here on. At the very least, though, I am going to wait longer to test, cause it's just going to be BFN for sure before 10-11 dpo. It has always been so for me. And why do that to me. In fact, I feel the burn so bad right now from last month, I am sorely tempted to just see if my temps stay up past 11 days and test if so... Whatever. I'll figure it out. Hmm, maybe this post belongs in the test and obsess forum... Hehe.

Anyone have any suggestion on the best online place to get pink-dye tests? I think they'd still be cheaper than getting them from the $1 store.

Hi Mamas! is there a sticky thread for all the acronyms?

help! i am lost. I am nursing a 2 yr old and AF (i am guessing that is aunt flow? lol) has yet to return. i have been supplementing Floradix (iron) and some acupuncture/herbs, also just started a homeopathic remedy and some additional omega 3s. i need a 101! i don't chart right now because i would not know what to chart othrer than my temperature, i did that for a while but it got depressing to me - also, can you get pregnant BEFORE you ever get a period ? i hardly got periods at all in the first place - any good suggestions? the dr of course says to wean my kid, much easier said than done. i have had 2 friends get pregnant while bf!

Hi! I just wanted to give you some hope because 6 months ago I felt the same exact way. My DD was 2 and AF was yet to show up and like you I rarely ever got my period or ovulated prior to pregnancy. Well, I started Maca and Vitex and my period showed up 1.5 months later so I highly recommend both of those supplements (BTW,I also take Floradix and B6.) I also tried to cut back nursing a little but that was not really consistent. Also, I never did temp because I didn't want to get frustrated. I just got my BFP 2 days ago and I thought it would never happen so please don't lose hope.

I just got my BPF and yes my nipples hurt right away (and still do) about 3 days after conception

to all of you for this month!
post #54 of 282
Please move to TWW. Thursday night I got O pains so I'm 1 or perhaps 2 DPO. I'm trying to keep a casual attitude so just using O pains to track my cycle is enough for now. If I just need to try to forget that I'm in the 2ww...
post #55 of 282
Please move me to the 2WW. I O'd yesterday. Sucks though because DH went out last night, so we didn't BD. Will try to BD this morning.

beckyand3littlemonsters~ oh no about the donor not being able to make the trip to you.


AF found me sometime during the night so i just counted it as showing up yesterday and had to override FF so it'd agree with the O date tcoyf gave.

post #57 of 282
Socali ~ on AF and to everyone who is struggling. I am with you.


It is exciting to see BFPs already, great way to start a new month! Congrats to those with BFPs!
post #58 of 282
Change of plans looks my donor can make it he's on his way now just waiting for him to phone cos he said he will need directions because he doesn't know leeds very well.
wish me luck ladies (again loll)
good luck to everyone.

Becky- Whew on the donor making it!?

Socali- I'm sorry AF found you. Such a downer when that happens. Are you ok?

Sorry I forgot most of what else I read already. Af is just ending here and I am already starting to feel hopeful about this month. Noooo. I don't wanna go there. Last time was such a letdown. I do feel like it could be the month for us though.
