14 DPO- Still No Period...

Hey Everyone, 

Hope everyone had a wonderful Turkey Day! I know I did. It was absolutely wonderful with all the people I love. I stuffed my self nice and full with Turkey and all the Thanksgiving Day fixings'. I hope you all did the same. 

As for me I am nearing the ned of my 2 week wait. I am currently 14 DPO and tomorrow and as of right now I still really haven't noticed much. I told you last week after my husband and I did the baby dance I had some spotting. Since then I haven't had any more spotting and I still haven't started my period. 

Things I have noticed... My breasts have been super sensitive... I haven't had any kind of morning sickness or anything like that as of yet. I have had really bad heart burn at times off and on. I have also had some really weird breaking out on my face. I don't typically break out on my face unless its that time of the month right before I start my period. This is different. Its all along the side of my face and on my chin. I actually thought it might have been a rash but my husband said that it looks more like a break out then a rash. So who knows. 

Like I said before I am not chalking up anything right now. It's a bit early for assumptions yet. Although I would be lying to you if I said I didn't want this to happen so bad. I can't even begin to tell you! I know there are a lot of you in the same boat as me and struggling with the whole pregnancy thing. It's the hardest thing I have ever had to go through. 

Oh, and another thing I have noticed. I have been having tons of clear "discharge". It almost looks like ovulation cervical mucus. I was talking to my friend about it and she said that it could be semen. Really?? Can semen sluff off like that?? I didn't really think about that. Anyways, those bad boys need to keep swimming damn it LOL ! 

Well anyways, wishing everyone a Happy Holiday's! And a happy 2 week waiting and happy bfp. 

XXOO,

Nicole

9 Days Past Ovulation... Symptoms... And more...

Howdy Ya'll! Is everyone getting ready to scarf some turkey and go in to major food coma's for like two days? You don't gotta lie, you know you eat turkey and all the fixings for two days. :) We do! I have no shame in my game! HAHA! 

As of today I am 9 DPO at the current moment. I haven't tested yet. I want to wait to miss my period first before I take a test. Here's a little TMI for you. November 23rd, Husband and I were doing the dance and I got a  bad cramp. Didn't think much of it continued on going... Once we were finished dancing I went to the bathroom and cleaned up. When I wiped I had LIGHT pink spotting. I thought my period was coming. I got really bummed. I went about my day was prepared to start my period... and nothing after that... We danced again the next day and normally if I were going to start having sex definitely would have triggered it and NOTHING... Still today... November 25 and still nothing. I am so keeping my fingers crossed that this is the month. 

Some recent symptoms I have had...

• Heart Burn
• Constipated
• I have been itchy everywhere
• my sex drive is out of control
• my back has been hurting
• I have been really sleepy

I got in the shower tonight... and like a ton of bricks I got super nauseated. I have been super nauseated for the passed hour... Sex drive is still going strong. HAHA 

So fingers crossed that this is the month! I have been praying so hard for this! Hoping you all are getting your BFP's and are at least enjoying doing the dance. Saying a prayer for all you ladies out there trying to get pregnant! 

Wishing you and your family Happy Holidays! :) 

Another Two Week Wait...

As I sit here at my desk enjoying some of the cooler weather that California is deciding to give us. I find my self wondering if I might be pregnant or not.  It's hard to not think about how wonderful it would be to be pregnant with our beautiful baby. It would be such a wonderful gift for this Christmas. I would love to do something totally adorable tell my parents that they are going to be Grandparents. What an awesome Christmas gift to me and Josh and not only to the rest of our family.

Then on the other hand, I think about how this just could be another set up for another let down. I don't look forward to doing pregnancy tests for the blow of the answer that it might not be anything. Its just a bitter sweet feeling I have when going through the two week wait. I sometimes don't understand how these young girls can "accidentally" get pregnant or these girls could have a one night stand and get pregnant or people who have multiple children and can't even take care of one of them. Yet, their are two people who love each other unconditionally who would love to be a mommy or daddy to a beautiful little boy to little girl.

Anyways, enough of the sad stuff thats not where I want my mind to be right now. I could sit here and dwell and think how I might not be or how I might be. However, until I am going to try and not read too much in to it until I have some pretty major symptoms and missed my period... as of right now... I just wait....

How do you entertain the time and your mind during this time? Its the hardest time of the entire "trying to get pregnant" part. I mean yah you have your period which suck and no one likes bleeding or having use tampons or pads... Bleh. Then you have the ovulation. Trying to get the egg at just the perfect time. At least doing the dance with your man is a little bit fun... But as soon as ovulation has happened... then you have the two week wait... I feel like that is more painful then any of the other hoopla... BLEH

Well sending baby dust to everyone! And keeping my fingers crossed for all of you out there in your two week wait. Waiting to get your big BFP! <3 Much love! 

Ovulating???Maybe?

Hey Cysters, 

Hows it going for you all... I hope everyone is getting their BFP's tonight. as for me right now... I have just been taking ovulation test after ovulation tests. LOL literally like a bunch of them.

So far... I have continued to take my fertile aide, Myo- Inositol, Ova Boost, and Fertile CM. I mentioned in my last blog I had started to bleed. I thought I was just starting my period. I was totally convinced thats what it was. It ended up being so weird. I was bleeding basically old blood and then one day I had like red very mucusy (if thats a word) blood and then went back to brown blood again. I had some weird cramping... I stopped taking ovulation tests during that time because I was convinced that it was my period. After thinking about it and seeing the mucus I thought you know what... I should take a ovulation test just to make sure that I wasn't ovulating. Low and be hold. my test had gotten a bunch darker then the ones from the start of the week. I couldn't believe it. It still wasn't positive but it was getting darker. 

So I continued to take a bunch of tests and tonight I took my tests and I have to say, this is the darkest I have ever seen any of my tests get. I would say tonight I would be positive. We are going to baby dance tonight because I want to catch this egg. No doubt. 

There you have it folks. The last test on the bottom is my full on positive. I can't believe it. I finally ovulated. Now for the wait... now... to see if I am pregnant in 2-3 weeks. Longest weeks of my life is this whole waiting gig. Fingers crossed ladies. I really have high hopes for this month and I really hope that I am not going to be disappointed like all the times before. I would really love to get my BFP. It would be an awesome christmas present to the immediate family for sure. I would love to do something super cute to let them know we are pregnant. :) Anyways, thats just thinking a little to far ahead. Lets just wait and see how the next two weeks go and maybe I will have some awesome news for you all... I wishing you all BFP's and know that I have my fingers crossed for all of you out there struggling and trying to have a family. Post your OPK's in the comment box below I love seeing everyones progress... Love ya all! 

Interesting... Very Very Interesting... Maybe a Little TMI

I just had something very very strange happen. Not entirely sure what the heck is going on.  Anyway this might get a little graphic and a little TMI. So cover your ears and close your eyes if you don't want to read weird girl problem ish. LOL

Anyways, On the 9th I thought I started my period again.  I started to bleed old brown blood for a  day and then had I started bleeding red blood. It wasn't a lot. I didn't need a pad. However, when I wiped it was there. Here we are on the 12th and I haven't bled or anything all day... I go to the bathroom and I wipe and there was a little bit of brown blood with a little bit of red blood along with a whole bunch of cervical mucus.

Natually, I had kind of given up on this month because I had started bleeding. I didn't think much of it so I hadn't been taking my ovulation tests. I don't know if I am having implantation bleeding or if I am having ovulation bleeding or what. I am trying to suck down enough water to take a test to see if I get a positive ovulation test... Who knows! I would love to be ovulating right now. Even better I would love to be pregnant. So who knows! :)

Keeping my fingers crossed for all the possibilities right now. I would gladly and happily take being pregnant right now. :) So I am just going to go with it for now. :) Figures crossed for all you out there doing the dance and doing what you gotta do to have a little one :) Enjoy!

Cycle Day 12

Hey Guys,

So I have been taking my vitamins for about 2 weeks now. My period has completely stopped and so far things seem like they are going back to normal. At least thats what I am hoping for. That would be simply amazing is all I have to say about that. I want to say this, I have felt so amazing since starting the FertilAid, Myo-Inositol, OvaBoost, and Fertile Cm.  Since starting these vitamins I have seen a huge change just in 2 weeks.

So I have been taking the ovulation test since the last day of my period. I haven't had a positive ovulation test yet. Although I recently learned that women with PCOS can ovulate way later in to their cycle. I didn't know that. Although, this doesn't surprise  me because the rest of our bodies are out of wack why wouldn't this be too LOL. I plan to continue taking the tests until I get a positive OPK.

Here are the few digitals that I have taken. I have taken a total of 4 but I took one and it didn't read it correctly my little thing showed a book instead of a smiley face LOL so I tossed that test! So far these are really pretty faint. I have also heard that these don't really show the progression on these the same way the little wands I used above. Basically I am just using the digitals to confirm ovulation. 

Well guys, Where are you at in your TTC journey? How is it looking. Have any of you gotten your BFP? I am hoping to catch this little EGGY! Hope you all do too! Have an awesome Monday! 

So I thought I would post these as well... These are from tonight. The bottom one is from my digital and that is the darkest one thus far I have gotten (It's a lot darker in person believe it or not) and for whatever reason small wand I think was a bust. It didn't even show a second line... and the control line was all deformed and what not... It was strange so I just chucked that one out because I don't think it took... All my other ones have been getting darker as the days go by. Reminder I am not even in my ovulation window. Because I have PCOS I start testing right after my period. I am about to be in my window in ONE day... SO they should be getting considerably darker soon! YAY! Just wanted to update you all! Night Night Folks! 

So Far So Good... High Hopes For This...

Day 3. 

So this is day 3 of Myo-Inositol, FertileAid, OvaBoost, and FertileCM. I had pretty much been shedding old brown blood for about a month and then on October 23rd I actually started shedding regular period blood. I guess this was me starting my period. Not really entirely sure. Since it was red blood I counted it as my first day of my period. Its been just about 5 days and finally this evening it seems as though it may be tapering off.

I will say this, it is a lot of vitamins to be taking in one day. I am just praying they are making some sort of difference in me right now. I would love nothing more to try this month and hope for a possible pregnancy. 

It has just been hard the past couple months. It would be nice to be able to have something be normal for once.  LIKE MY PERIOD... No pun  intended HAHAH! I know my husband and I would love nothing more then to have a baby. I know he would make the perfect father. I want him to be a daddy. I know he would be amazing. I see him with our nieces and nephews and he's perfect with them. I know with our children it would be another story. I want to be able to take pictures with our baby. I would love to share the beauty of our holiday spirit. I would love more then anything to give my parents the joy of having a  beautiful grandson or daughter. I just have such high hopes. 

I am just going to keep hoping for the best and taking these pills. I would love to see a drastic change. As of right now, things are looking promising and if they keep going this way... I will be starting ovulation tests... If I can go one day with out bleeding then I will start the ovulation tests the next day. I will keep you all posted and I am sure I will be posting my ovulation test once we start seeing double lines. 

Fingers Crossed Ladies... And my fingers are crossed for you all out there struggling the struggle with me. XXOO!
