Cycle #6 ~ 5 dpo

 

My symptoms have definitely increased today.  I had a rough night of insomnia, I'm very irritable and moody. I feel like I'm fine and then bam I snap.  That's not how I typically am - I consider myself to be pretty mellow and not a lot upsets me, usually.

I had some pretty strong nausea this morning and it lasted all day but kind of off and on.  I didn't even want anything for breakfast.  And then I had to choke down my Subway leftovers and only ate a little of that.  

I noticed I have a little bump on the inside of my lip, left side.  Maybe a cold sore? Weird.  Decreased appetite again. Very itching last night and today, and oddly my NOSE has been itching like I'm allergic to something.

My temp was up again this morning....

 

Again still looking triphasic but that doesn't happen until 7 dpo at the earliest, per google.  Higher progesterone as a result of Clomid could be causing my symptoms to be amplified.

I felt constipated earlier today but I was finally able to go.  I have lost 4 pounds in the past week (without trying).

Craving chili and baked potato.  Dipped fries into my chili. Got teary eyed watching a Volkswagen commercial.  My right knee is bothering me.  And last but not least my boobs were really sore today, though maybe not as full?  Also still have the hat you can 

^^ ok see that last sentence?  I left it that was on purpose to show what happens when I doze off mid-type.  That's the 3rd time I've done that in this one blog entry but I kept correcting it lol.  So the last thing I was going to mention (how appropriate) is that I feel extremely tired and should go to bed soon.  As in now.  

Oh and I took a Wondfo hpt this morning cuz of all my crazy symptoms.  I thought maybe I ovulated earlier.  But alas....negative lol.  I didn't even take a pic cuz there was nothing to scrutinize.  It was stark white.

That's it!  Tomorrow I have to pay close attention to any spotting or temp dip that could indicate implantation, since I'll be 6 dpo!  Halfway through my LP!

Oh two more things.  My tongue is sore.  Probably not relevant but just saying.  And on FF I clicked "charts like mine" and it came up with this....

 

So including m/c, that's 68% of charts like mine resulted in pregnancy.  That got me pretty hopeful!

CD 17 & 18 ~ 1 & 2 dpo Just Ovulated!

I'm 2dpo today (April 21st, 2017).  I began this cycle on April 4th (my 3rd PP cycle).  I ovulated a day or two earlier than my usual, which could be due to some fertility supplement I'm taking - which I'll go into detail about in a future post. Here's my positive OPK progression:   My test on CD 15 around 1pm was the first one I considered positive, but then my 8pm test as well as my CD 16 tests were also positive.  My most positive test was on CD 16 around noon.  This is the only one where the test line was darker than the control line, though not dramatically so.  This is what I would consider to be my peak day, also the last day of ewcm and the day I felt ovulation pain (around 6-7pm that day).  I don't always feel O pains, but they were very prominent this month and on the right ovary. This is my chart as of today (2dpo):   I'm hoping to see my crosshairs tomorrow at 3dpo!  This is the best looking chart I've had yet - which gives me hop...

Cycle #5 ~ 10 dpo

  Ugh.  That's the only word I can use for today.  BFN Wondfo and FRER with FMU.  Like not even a hint of a line.  I really feel like this is the end of the line and AF will be here by Sunday (12dpo), Monday at the latest.  I'm just so fed up with it all, and when I get to this point in my cycle where I've realized the chances of a BFP are slim to none, I just think...ok let's just get on with it then.  I know they say 10 dpo is still really early but it's actually not.  Not when you have pregnancy tests that pick up extremely low levels of hcg.  And yes some don't get bfp until 11, 12 dpo or even later but they're the exception, not the rule.  At least it feels that way.  So yeah....just waiting on the witch to arrive.  I hope my Clomid arrives in time for me to use it.  It's sitting in customs in NYC at the moment.  This mornings stupid BFN's.....       *Update* I got some sleep finally, and woke up w...

Cycle #10 ~ CD 11

Well here we are in November.  I’m very conflicted right now because I’m just to that point where I don’t know what else to do to get pregnant.  I’ve done everything that’s within my power.  Part of me wants to just throw my hands up and give up.  I’m almost 40.  DH is 47.  My girls are 14 and 15.  Maybe it’s just too late.  I have to be okay with the possibility of not having a baby.  And I’m so not okay with that, but I don’t know what else to do. As the holidays creep closer and the anniversary of Jackson’s birth/death nears, I just feel this heaviness, this weight that I can’t seem to shake and the closer it gets, the more anxious I feel.  I don’t understand why this happened to me.  I so badly want to just erase it and start again.  I want my son.  And that, I cannot have.  At least not in this life. AF was four days long, fairly heavy.  Then there was four days of spotting.  I am not temping this cycle...
