Congratulations Gabesgrrl! H&H 9 months

ZoeJane's Mommy I hope AF stays away (because you're pregnant, not just to stay away )

I think I'm headed down the road to AF. No spotting, but PMS symptoms yesterday and today.

Val:  Yay for symptoms!  Even the yucky ones!  Although I remember really wanting symptoms with my DD and then a week later WHAM!  Debillitating sickness  lol.  Ah well, it is all good though, and I hope you get lots and lots of preggo symptoms to enjoy!!!

Chicajones:  When I have time I wil have to jump over to your chart... so you could just be starting your tww according to FF? 

ZoeJanesMommy:  Big hugs to you...maybe it is just residual implantation spotting? 

Luna:  TWO days til testing! :)

Hi!

The OB I saw after my 3rd MC a couple of months ago, said that he would give me progesterone if I requested it, but that there has been no conclusive evidence that it works, and there is no proof that it is safe for the baby. He would recommend a suppository if I asked for it....I dunno. I've heard mixed opinions about it-and I have had my projesterone levels checked (not during pregnancy though) and they were "fine" according to my family doc.

I have an appointment with the OB on Wednesday next week. Maybe I'll ask him if he can do a progesterone test and if it's low, maybe I will take the suppositories. Although he did say the side effects were PMS-like mood swings, which I'm sure DH will just LOVE! haha

Hugs to all waiting to know-don't give up! I was so surprised with this BFP I can't even explain it!

Just wanted to keep you all posted... still no AF today! I'm so surprised!

My boobs are starting to get really tender, but they often do before AF comes. Frustrating how early pregnancy symptoms are pretty much the same as PMS symptoms!

I'm not sure if I'm going to test tomorrow... If I go by when I actually had EWCM, I'm only 10 or 11 DPO today. I'm not sure that I'd get a BFP even if I was pregnant, do you guys think? I think I'm just going to keep on waiting.... something will happen eventually! LOL!

Maybe if I don't get my AF by like... Monday I'll test. That would be like 14 or 15 DPO. 

I'm just so confused!!

[ZoeJane'sMommy]

LunaLady - No kidding I sure wish pregnancy symptoms were completely different so there wouldn't be so much confusions. I really envy girls (like both of my sister in laws) who just know when they are pregnant it must be so nice.

An update on me still got a BFN today I have one test left for tomorrow so we will see.

[LunaLady]

Fingers crossed for you ZoeJane'sMommy! Are you late, now?

[jojobean]

Luna:  Well, some people get early bfp's and some don't...but of course my vote is for you to POAS and update us with hopefully positive news!!!  I hope this is it for you!  And yes, it super sucks that premenstrual symptoms mirror early pregnancy.  Sigh, it is THIS fact that I get so excited until about 10 dpo every month. Maybe next month I will try and relax a bit and do what you are doing and just wait a little.

ZoeJane:  I have the same question as Luna  :)

[LunaLady]

Update: Still no AF. I tested with a FRER this morning. BFN.

I'm just so confused! CD37 today.... I've never had a cycle this long in my life! They are usually 28-29 days. 

I guess all I can do is wait and see!

[jojobean]

Hmmm I wonder what is going on?  You think maybe you did ovulate later than normal? 

[LunaLady]

I think maybe I did. I didn't have EWCM until CD25. But, I was really ill during the time FF said I was supposed to ovulate, so maybe my body waited. 

[LunaLady]

PHEW!!

AF showed today!! Thank goodness, I was starting to get worried!

Fresh start 

[jojobean]

    and     I know that feeling of relief.  I was a week late one time (the first and only time I have been late without being pregnant) and I was honestly just happy to have started because I just didn't know what was going on!  So, yay for a brand new cycle  :)

[LunaLady]

Yep! It's kinda nice, though... now I'm due to ovulate over Valentine's Day weekend! And we're going to be on a romantic getaway... 

[jojobean]

Well that is the PERFECT time to make a baby!  Wouldn't that be neat, to conceive on Valentine's day?  (hmm.  the dancing veggie may not have been the best choice, but I'm going to leave him there!)
