Great news Jamie!! Well , I am fine. I am on day 3 of femera. Ready for thanksgiving. DH will be home sometime that afternoon for 14 days. I can't wait for the slaes Friday and to be off work for the next 5 days. Glad to hear from you Jamie.

Jamie...happy to hear the great news. Best of luck to you next month.

Hey girls, just wanted to see how everyone was. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I shopped till i dropped Friday!!! I am fine on cd 11 . Haven't started opk .

I just cracked and took a HPT....it said + but I got the HCG trigger shot on Nov. 12th, do you guys think that it's a false + before I get to excited? I should expect AF Nov. 4th if not.

Correction I got the trigger shot Nov. 14th

Hey ladies! Just thought I would drop in and say hi. I am on cd13 and feeling pretty good. I have not taken my temp at all this month and I am not going to use opk's. I am just going to enjoy this month and see what happens. Next month we will be starting clomid again. eb - I have a question for you. I know you recently just had an hsg. I am sorry if this is tmi but I need to know what you think. Since I had my hsg, every time my dh and I bd, there is a white, kind of chunky discharge. It is only after we bd - it is not a yeast infection. It doesn't smell or itch. I have never had this happen. I am thinking it is because of the hsg. It is getting better, not as noticeable each time. I did take an antibiotic following the hsg, so I am assuming this isn't anything to worry about. What do you think? Did you have discharge several days following? Other than that I feel great! How about you?

Hi girls! Hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving and stuffed yourselves with good food! I know I did! It's soooo nice to finally have my appetite back! And right in time for the holidays! JND, wish I could help you about the HPT, but I don't know much about the trigger shot. I think I read something about not testing within 14 days after the shot, but I could be wrong. I'd ask your md. Jamie, I think it's good that your not doing temps. or OPKs. I think that those things can sometimes stress us out more than help the process. Just relax and try not to stress about it. Enjoy the holidays and keep BD'ing every other day to keep you covered! eb, how's that Femara going? Still experiencing s/e? Are you going to do OPKs this month or not? You mentioned that you hadn't started that yet. I, also, shopped on Friday! My first time shopping on Black Friday and I couldn't believe how crazy it was! Packed parking lots, checkout lines a mile long, and rude people. But it was fun, too! And soooo cold! It really wore me out. I get tired very easily now that I'm PG. Normally, I start to wear down and get tired around 5 or 6pm, but Friday I was ready for a nap at 2pm. ~~~ So....I caved! I decided to find out what the baby is. DH has wanted to, but I held off because I wanted the surprise. But I've been itching to know and I'm not a patient person. I'm, also, afraid that I'll feel disappointed if the baby doesn't turn out to be a boy when he/she is born. I've been really feeling like it's a boy and now have the mind set that I'm having a boy. I know I'll love the baby no matter what, but I think it will be a big adjustment getting used to the idea of a girl after nine months of anticipating a boy. We'll be finding out on Friday! I'll let you girls know how it turns out! BTW, besides DH and I, you girls will be the only other ones to know! We decided not to tell anyone else, so we can still share our wonderful surprise when the baby is born. Well, I'm off to bed. Hope everyone's week goes well. *baby dust*

Jamie, I had that same thing after hsg. It should stop in a few days. Glad your doing okay. I haven't sarted opk yet, don't know if i will or won't. We just haven't been stressing over it. How exciting Anna , you get to find out Friday. Wow, time flies fast!! Back to work tomorrow . Talk to you girls then..

Hey guys i really think that it was the trigger shot giving me the false +, I took another HPT(clear blue in words) last night and it said + but then this AM I took first response and the NOT line was more visible and the other line was faintly there but nothing compared to the not line. I'm happy I didn't get so excited, because in my head I kept telling myself it could be the shot so I wouldn't feel so dissappointed. My boobs are starting to feel sore today so we will see if AF shows up on the 4th, if not great! If so then I will start 2nd cycle of Femara.

Thanks eb! You have eased my mind! I feel so much more relaxed this month with not taking temps or doing opks. It is kind of nice. I am trying not to think about it - just enjoy this time of year and get ready for Christmas!! I am so glad that I have someone who has gone through the same thing as myself. Anna - I am so excited for you! I cannot believe that you are already at that point to find out the sex of the baby!! How exciting! I would love the surprise of not knowing but I couldn't stand the wait. I look forward to finding out - thanks for sharing with us! JND - don't give up hope just yet - you could still be pregnant... but then again I totally understand how you feel about not wanting to get your hopes up. Hang in there, the fourth isn't too far away.

Hi girls, Well I am having ovulation pains, so i broke down and took opk and it was positive so we'll start bding like crazy tonight. I hope the 3rd month of femera is the charm for me. Jamie, it has really been nice having you to compare notes with. Our cycles are so close and we are experiencing lots of the same things. I am excited about Christmas ( it gives me an excuse to shop more) . LOL!! We put our tree up yesterday, and we'll put outside decorations up tomorrow. Plus the kids at school really make it fun, they get so excited this time of year.

eb - I know what you mean about the kids at school. I stayed after to plan some of the Christmas activities that we do. I love this time of year with the kids - there is so many fun crafty stuff to do... I really haven't felt like I have ovulated yet - it may still be too early for me. Glad to hear you got a +, take advantage of it and good luck. Like you said maybe we will really get our Christmas wishes!!!

I just took the HPT clear blue again and it said +, can the shot still be in my system still or what? Even if it takes 14days to get out of your system, I am past 14 days either way. I'm not to sure where you start counting from. Do you count from the 14th if so then I am 16days past the shot if you don't count the 14th then I am 15days past. What do you guys think? I think I'm going to call and get blood work done.Either way it is past 14days and I'm still getting a + result(depending which brand I use..LOL) What do you guys think?

Hey Gals, just checking in on everyone. I just got through putting up some garland with light around my porch railing. I just love this time of year. I am trying to decide what to get dh for Christmas. We didn't bd last night dh was helping smoke sausage with his grandfather. I hope this month isn't shot, but if we bd tonight and tomorrow maybe we'll be okay. I know opk can pick up lh surge up to 36 hours before ovulation. What do you guys think???

Hi everone i hope i can join in! Here is my story i am 21 husband is 26 we want a baby so badly.We have been ttc for 7 months now.I have been having really bad pain for about 2 years with my pelvic area and lower back.All my symptoms lead to a kidney or pelvic infection.I tested negetive for all of that everything.I dont have infection causing all this pain so the doctor says it would be endometrious or ovarian cysts.I am not sure which one but i have all the symptoms of endometrious and i have cysts on my ovaries.I am in so much pain everyday i just dont know what to do.Does anyone else have this problem?

eb- I think you might still be ok. I know that it can detect a surge early. Good luck - by the way are you still experiencing o pains?? Anna - how are you doing? You must be so excited for Friday! JND - It sounds promising. I would definitely go and get bloodwork done. I don't know anything about the shot, but if you are get a + I would think it would be accurate... then again I am not a doctor. Good luck and let us know what you find out!
