#11DPO

[xlipstick-lover]

This TWW is brutal. I just wanna know if I’m pregnant or not.

Currently 10/11 dpo.

I know it’s early to test, but I’ve gotten straight negatives each time.

My period is due on the 10th.

Tonight felt like pre menstrual cramps.

If it’s my period, I’ll feel like defeat.

I’ve already had a miscarriage back in 2017.

Maybe it’s just not meant to be…

CD 25 11dpo

I really did forget how all consuming ttcing is. We’ve just been away for a week at centre parcs and had a lovely time. It was perfectly timed as it meant for most of my ttw I was away and not thinking about it. But the moment I got back yesterday I knew I was 10dpo and took a test. It was negative. Even my line eyes couldn’t make a line appear. I was okay with it because it wasn’t fmu so there was a chance that I’d get a line today. Well low and behold there was no line this morning so now I’ve been in a bad mood all day. Feel defeated and fed up. Feels like the first hurdle is getting pregnant and the next is staying pregnant. Part of me is relieved that I’m not going to have to watch the line disappear again. Or like the other month stare at tests that barely have a line but then come on two days late and mess with my head. But the other part of me just wants to take a test and see a dark line that reassures me everything is okay. My mood has been horrible and I’ve been needing to pee what feels like every 10 minutes so I thought that was a good sign. But nope. I think coming into this next cycle I’ll go back to taking the concoction of pills and trying to track my temp along side the ovulation tests. Maybe that will help, but the more effort I put in the worse I feel when it doesn’t work. I don’t know. Last month I kinda just went with the don’t think about it unless your in your fertile window.

Wish I was one of them people who could just forget about it and get pregnant. Unless you’ve struggled with getting pregnant I don’t think people understand. My sister doesn’t. She’s had 5 kids and gets pregnant at the drop of a hat. I’m jealous of that x

11dpo 13dpt- let’s talk about yesterday real quick and then today lol, so that exhaustion hit hard about 7 o clock. We were headed to dinner and I felt drained. I completely forgot where I was going and it didn’t help we were deep in conversation. I missed my exit completely and had to turn around.

As far as other symptoms they are pretty much the same, sore boobs and wearing a bra is fine, taking it off that is killer. I had some nausea yesterday. My sense of smell has been heightened. And today I’ve had some off and on light cramping.

Fingers crossed 🤞 this is it

11dpo

No one talks about the emotional toll surgery does on you mentally. I thought I was in the clear but it really hit me today. I’m walking around looking 7 months pregnant with a hunchback. I have to sit a certain way or else I’ll develop a pocket of fluid, (which last when after I took off my faja I discovered a pocket of fluid over my butt crack) and I quit sugar and coffee cold turkey so I think it finally caught up with me today. The only good thing is that at least it’s winter and nothing fun is going on outside. It snowed.

Tomorrow I get to change into my smaller faja, no more 360 foam but I’ll still wear my little square foams I got off of Amazon.

Get. Your. Massages. This week I have three massages scheduled with three different practitioners. I wonder which one will like the best and what packages they have. I already paid for one package that was 10 massages for $1000 but there are cheaper ones out there.

If you aren’t genetically blessed then it really is a roller coaster trying to get your dream body. Even if I worked out everyday for the past 10 years I still wouldn’t be able to develop hips. I keep telling myself as long as I can be abstinent from sweets for 90 days then it’ll be a real habit and I won’t crave it anymore. I’ll only indulge on birthdays and holidays (real holidays, not Presidents’ Day or whatever.)

I’m going to bed at 8:30pm tonight so I can wake up tomorrow well rested.

Here we are. Let’s bring you up to speed.

I met my husband in August of 2019. It’s a funny story, really! A story I will save for another day. When we met, my husband and I where both divorced with children. He had 3, I had 2.

I was absolutely sure I was not done having kids. He, on the other hand, had gotten a vasectomy 4 years prior. This is a very early conversation we had in our relationship as you can imagine. We both agreed it was worth pursuing and he would love to have another child and would pursue a reversal if our relationship developed. It did!

On December 10th, 2022 we got married after a quick 6 month engagement.

March 10, 2023 we drive to Arkansas for his reversal surgery. All went well!

We planned to start TTC right away but unfortunately I had a cervical cancer scare that pushed things back a few months. No cancer, thankfully!

I got the all clear in June, and I saw my fertility doctor and was prescribed letrozole as I have PCOS and do not ovulate on my own. Letrozole helped me to conceive my other 2 babes.

Dear husband also had a semen analysis which came back pretty good but with high viscosity (basically semen is too thick for the spermies to get through). They said we could try with timed intercourse for 4 cycles and then would recommend moving to IUI.

So here we are, at the tail end of month 4. I had high hopes for this cycle but today, at 11DPO, my tigger shot is gone and my tests are negative. We can expect my period for the weekend and alas, moving on to IUI.

To say I am bummed is an understatement. This has unlocked a whole new set of fears for me and I have been struggling with the worry and anxiety about it all. I am hoping that getting back into blogging will help alleviate these fears and pass the time while we wait for our little miracle.

Thanks for reading! ♥️

11DPO ancora molto blanda. Ma c’è

Non so proprio cosa pensare…teoricamente so che l’ovulazione c’è stata il 2 maggio.. quindi DPO corretti. Possibile che si è attaccato tardi? Mi sembra che non cresce abbastanza.. e che a questa epoca la linea è troppo chiara.

Paura di illudermi. È doloroso poi. Ho a casa soli altri 3 test. Non posso più sprecarli. Dovrei attendere il ritardo del ciclo, ma se l’ovulazione c’è stata il 2, il ciclo è più corto di prima.. quando sarebbe il ritardo??

Flo mi dice che il ciclo arriva fra 6 giorni. Il 19 maggio. Premom dice già il 16 maggio.

La mia testa mi dice di rifare il test il 16 maggio almeno. Oggi è il 13. Martedì.

Sintomi? Qualcosina.. un po’ la nausea, ma non sono sicura, a volte sento qualcosa nel utero, magari in generale “lo sento” come organo (ingrossato)?

Zero dolori al seno.

Uff.. come faccio a stare tranquilla?

Cautiously optimistic

I'd be lying if I said I was cautiously optimistic. I'm so freaking excited. I can't contain myself. I'm just jumping off the walls. Doctor confirmed the pregnancy today. I feel happy. I know I should be cautious because we're not even at the 4 week mark (that will be tomorrow). Today we are 3 weeks 6 days...that number seems so small considering how big of an impact it has made on me already.

Husband is more cautious than optimistic, which I understand. We both really want this baby but dealing with the heartbreak makes things difficult. I'm going to remain positive though!

11 dpo - CD 34

Walgreens brand and internet cheapie - Negative

I feel like I see a line trying to form in person but I am pretty sure I'm just losing my mind at this point.

I am really not hopeful at this point. With the amount of "pregnancy symptoms" I'm feeling, I would assume it would be positive.

Symptoms that I don't normally have before AF. so it's very odd.

I'm just kinda over the whole fucking thing.

[proudmama2015]

No period yesterday or today! I'll be testing the 29th if I still don't get it

This is so crazy If I get pregnant on the first try, we shall see

11dpo

First day home. Had a rough sleep. I just couldn’t get comfortable sleeping on my stomach but at least I was in my own bed with my own pillow. I was able to get a 2 miles walk in so I’m very happy about that.

I’m eating healthy and getting my water in. Still no coffee or sweets in my system. I wonder how long I can hold out lol I contacted about 5 different places that advertised lympathic drainage massages but one of them only had the sleeve (no), and the other didn’t do post op massages. So idk. My plan of getting one done before Tuesday probably won’t work out but at least I found one person. I was told to try to get massages does 2-3x a week, not sure if that’s possible where I live lol

Watched damsel and it was a cute movie. Millie needs to stop with the surgeries though. She’s looking like a yassified version of a princess.

Update

CD 26 DPO 11 Cycle 2 I've been gone for about 5 days, but here are my tww symptoms: occasional nausea, MOODY, back pain, cramping, weird dreams. Officially testing in the morning, CD27, and CD28. Fingers crossed wish me luck!!

[babyhearteyes-blog]

11dpo

No symptoms, no anything. Feeling pretty pessimistic about our chances this month. AF should be here around Thursday/Friday and on that day I have to call my RE to book my HSG. So many acronyms. Just wanted to also thank everyone for their response/support after my fertility appointment post! I haven’t actually told anyone in my life about our TTC journey or our fertility struggles so having you guys on here to talk to helps so much. I appreciate you guys so much and hope we all get our positives soon. <3

11dpo progression!

[ttcbbyr]

I ordered a pregnancy test for 11dpo so then I'll know and can just get over it

Why do I even think this will be any different than the last 34 cycles. I hate it

[babyvdiary]

Fuck ttc. Fuck miscarriages. Fuck period symptoms being the same as pregnancy symptoms. Fuck everyone who's pregnant. Fuck absolutely everything. I'm so fucking over it at this point. I can't do this anymore.
