FRIDAY TTC POST

CD 12 and as always not a thing to report. Thinking of saying bye to this Friday post. Most ladies here are new and don't know me. I don't feel the support that I did in the past. Most ladies that know me have been blessed with one and some two babies and have moved on. I feel left out and alone.

Tami~ I know that I am guilty of not being around as much for support. I struggle each week myself with whether or not I should continue the post or pass it on to someone newer that has more time to keep up. I genuinely care so much for those ttc and pray every day for the struggle to end in bfp. Sometimes I know my prayers aren't the same as a few kind words of encouragement. Please know that I constantly think of you and your cycles and miss when you don't post. I also pray all the time that you will get your blessing. I can't presume to know how hard it is, but know that I am a pm away if you need to chat or vent okay. Love ya. Shari

I know how long you've been trying for #2 and that this has been unbelievably hard for you.   I hope you do not leave here...though I do understand limiting your time here.  I still pop in several times a week, but often times any more, I am here more to provide support than to get it.  I wish there were easy answers and solutions...but obviously if there are, I don't know of them. About the only thing I'm pretty sure of is to tell you to keep trying...because it's not likely to happen if you don't.  No guarantees it ever WILL happen with all the trying in the world...but you do need to try. 

Have you found any other support groups out there for us old farts TTC?  Some place that fits in more with what you (and I)  need?  Not that we're not needed here...not that we don't belong here too...but just a group that meets our issues.

Hi Shari,

13dpo as of today and........





I guess the soy isoflavones worked this time...LOL

Congrats Sherry-Lynn!!   Happy and healthy 9 mos to you!

I, too, have a BFP to report, but don't know how to post a picture ;)

Sherry-Lynn~ I am so, so happy for you!! I know this has been a tough journey. I am praying hard for a healthy and strong pregnancy for you! That is a beautiful picture of your bfp by the way! I read your other post. Progesterone didn't bug me at all. I think my symptoms were pretty normal. And about the metformin. Please be sure you research and talk to your doctor. I took it for the first trimester only as the studies on added causes of birth defects while taking it in the 2nd and 3rd tri were so limited. My RE and I decided to go off of it after 12 weeks. I know it is a personal decision...but just make sure to educate yourself okay. Keep me posted on your pregnancy okay. I don't have much time here anymore, but if you are on fb maybe we could keep in better touch there. Shari

OK Shari, here's my update:



7/15 Beta 97, go back for 2nd Beta 7/19

Lisa~ What a nice picture! Congratulations to you!! Praying for a happy and healthy nine months for you and your bean! Keep us posted on the repeat beta okay. I am really happy for you! Yeah!! Shari

Thanks Shari!!   My repeat beta was 618 & I go for an u/s on 8/9.

Congrats to those with BFPs!!!!!!!!    Today is CD 15; possible ovulation on CD 13 but fertility friend hasn't locked it in yet, I guess waiting for more temps..  Last month I O'd on CD 13 and so far my temps this month I looked the same.  Hopefully I did ovulate.  We BD'd more this time during my forcasted fertile period.  Keeping the faith!  I know God is good and it will be in HIs time!
