Lisa, thank you SO much for writing back...you have no idea!!!

My first thought was PCOS, definitely. I have some of the other symptoms such as acne and weight gain (about 5-10 lbs in the last 6-8 months). When I asked my doctor (which was actually a planned parenthood gynecologist since I don't have insurance...but I'm getting some soon!) if PCOS was a possibility, she said it was highly unlikely since people with PCOS don't get their period at all.
20.gif


Here's a question for you: Will my thyroid levels show something is wrong if I have PCOS (since you said the hormones mess up the egg production...)? I'm waiting to get my thyroid levels back.

The doc kind of hinted that I would be better off going to a gynecologist or fertility doctor. She told me to keep monitoring my cycle for another YEAR and if doesn't change talk to someone else. Is it just me or does that seem like a long time to potentially have something wrong with you and not get it fixed?

I'm not TTC yet...and I'm well under 35 (I'm 25), but I think we'll be trying in the next year or two and its really bothering me that I'm not "normal". Sigh.

Thank you so much for writing back though...I really appreciate it. And your story about your friend getting pregnant with PCOS is very uplifting.

Lucky so glad I could help ease your mind a little.

Yes get thee to a doctor to have a full blood workup not just thyroid which it probably isn''t. The fertility workups usually gauge FSH and LH hormone levels in a series of tests according to a time schedule sometimes using clomid or other follicle stimulating hormones. Another friend had most of her workup at the gyno and started using clomid and bam was pregnant right away.

I would ask around one of the major hospitals in your area. Just call the Labor and Delivery dept. and ask a charge RN or clinical manager who the most favorable OB''s are.

Having worked in a hosp. they won''t mind telling you believe me. Explain the concerns and ask if they could point you in the direction of someone who deals w/ fertility issues.

I know some OB''s are more knowledgeable than others.

Also you can call the perinatologist in your area (hospital staff should be able to help). As a high risk doc. they know just about all the fertility specialists around and work w/ them sometimes.

This may mean some researching and digging around but I wouldn''t wait on the establishment to guide me. Afterall it''s not their fertility at stake!

If you don''t like a doc. move on. There are great ones out there and some pretty shi**y ones too.

And don''t let the "you''re so young" thing stop you. If you suspect a problem now better have it fully exposed to the light of day.

On the flip side PCOS people can have a slight tendency towards multiples as egg production is sporadic and unpredictable ie. my friend.

Good luck and glad you have tuned into your body. Don''t worry there are many options out there.

Checking back in....

Last night, I had the strangest, most vivid dream I've had in a long time:

I didn't sleep very well, waking up several times throughout the night. Each time I went back to sleep, I would have a dream about being pregnant.

The dream that woke me up was that DH and I went to see some family of his that I’ve never met. We went to their house, which was very big and rustic looking - like a mountian side home. It was beautiful. I was standing in the living room, being introduced to his family and for some reason, I was topless
6.gif


DH didn’t seem to notice and I didn’t seem to care. One of the women offered me a tour of the home and when I noticed the layout of the house was exactly like my grandmother’s house. Anyway, next thing I know, we're all climbing into a minivan to go shopping. I'm still topless.
Next thing I remember is that we’re back at the house and I’m waking through the living room where his family are gathered and I become aware that I'm totally topless and completely embarrassed!

I run to the bedroom and start looking for a shirt when I hear two ladies coming down the hall, so I hurry and try to get into the tiny closet and shut the door but I didn't fit. They found me on the closet floor, still topless, trying to shut the door. One lady introduces me to the other, like I was doing nothing out of the ordinary.

Then the next thing I remember is standing over the pedestal sink in the bathroom and throwing up prunes into the sink. I couldn’t stop throwing up. DH came in to check on me and I just continued to vomit prunes, over and over again.


DH said to me, "Your throwing up becasue you're pregant"


I woke-up with a jolt from that dream, feeling very sick to my stomach like I just might throw up from my dream. I also felt like mac-truck just hit it me.

I ate my oatmeal slowly this morning in hope to calm my stomach. Ugh, I feel sick thinking about it. And I WILL NEVER eat prunes EVER again! I swear, I could actually taste the icky in my dream, it was so vivid!

Wonder the meaning behind me being topless?
~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~

With only a few days to go before AF is to arrive (next tues/wed), I'm starting to freak out!

I haven't really been thinking about much until 2-days ago. I kinda started to freak out a bit. Well, okay, I'm not going to lie - I'm freaking out a big bit!
32.gif
But I know everything will be good, no matter what the outcome is this month.

Do you think I can take a test as early as tomorrow morning or do you think it's too soon?

Hehe I couldn''t help myself!!! Not sure if any of it is applicable to your life..but I LOVVVVE using dream dictionaries!

Prunes
To see prunes in your dream, symbolizes an emotional or creative blockage. It may also represent aging as implied by the metaphor "as wrinkled as a prune".

Vomiting
To dream that you are vomiting, indicates that you need to reject or discard an aspect of your life that is revolting. There are some emotions or concepts that you need to confront and then let go.

Topless
To dream that you are topless, signifies your way of showing and exhibiting love. You may be inviting love toward your direction.

Van
To see or drive a van in your dream, symbolizes convenience and/or practicality. Consider the load that you are carrying and what you can handle. Don''t stress yourself out.

Shopping
To dream that you are shopping, indicates your needs and desires. Consider what you are shopping for and what needs you are try to fulfill. In particular, to dream that you are shopping for food and groceries, signifies your hidden attempt to buy the attention of others.

Closet
To see a closet in your dream, symbolizes something in your life that you have kept hidden. It may also signify an unveiling of previously hidden aspects of yourself, as in "coming out of the closet".

Hiding
To dream that you are hiding, suggests that you are keeping some secret or withholding some information. You may not be facing up to a situation or not want to deal with an issue. However, you may be getting ready to reveal and confess before somebody finds out.

Pregnant
To dream that you are pregnant, symbolizes an aspect of yourself or some aspect of your personal life that is growing and developing. You may not be ready to talk about it or act on it. This may also represent the birth of a new idea, direction, project or goal. f you are really pregnant and having this dream, then it represents your anxieties about the pregnancy. Women in the first trimester of their pregnancy tend to dream of tiny creatures, fuzzy animals, flowers, fruit and water. In the second trimester, dreams will reflect your anxieties about being a good mother and concerns about possible complications with the birth. Dreams of giving birth to a non-human baby are also common during this period of the pregnancy. Finally, in the third trimester, dreams consists of your own mother. As your body changes and grows, dreams of whales, elephants and dinosaurs and other larger animals may also start appearing at this stage.

Embarrassment
To dream that you are embarrassed, signifies hidden weaknesses, fears and lack of self-confidence. This dream also suggests of insecurities about your sexuality.

Home
In particular, to see your childhood home or a home that you no longer live in, suggests your own desires for building a family. It also reflects aspects of yourself that were prominent or developed during the time you lived in that home. You may experience some feelings or unfinished expression of emotions that are now being triggered by a waking situation.

Thanks again Lisa. I am definitely going to investigate the matter further. You''ve been a lifesaver.

Prunes
To see prunes in your dream, symbolizes an emotional or creative blockage. It may also represent aging as implied by the metaphor ''as wrinkled as a prune''.

I can guess that I dreamed about prunes because I''ve been eating them alot recently, as part of my diet/exercise plan. Ugh, don''t know if I will be eating them again anytime soon though....Hmmm...I also feel that I''m since I''m getting older, that it''s time for us to have another child (now or never is my thought). So maybe that plays into it too.

Vomiting
To dream that you are vomiting, indicates that you need to reject or discard an aspect of your life that is revolting. There are some emotions or concepts that you need to confront and then let go.

I thought it had something to do with morning sickness. But to reject an aspect of my life that I find revolting...hmm, I''ve been trying to lose weight for the last few years now. This year I''ve been hitting the gym 5-6x a week. I don''t find my weight "revolting" but I am bothered by it.

Topless
To dream that you are topless, signifies your way of showing and exhibiting love. You may be inviting love toward your direction.

Another child perhaps
21.gif


Van
To see or drive a van in your dream, symbolizes convenience and/or practicality. Consider the load that you are carrying and what you can handle. Don''t stress yourself out.

The worry and stress of having another child - can we handle it?

Shopping
To dream that you are shopping, indicates your needs and desires. Consider what you are shopping for and what needs you are try to fulfill. In particular, to dream that you are shopping for food and groceries, signifies your hidden attempt to buy the attention of others.

Hmmm..in my dream everyone was getting in the van to go to the mall but the next memory was in the house. I don''t know - I have many needs and desires that I want to fulfill.

Closet
To see a closet in your dream, symbolizes something in your life that you have kept hidden. It may also signify an unveiling of previously hidden aspects of yourself, as in ''coming out of the closet''.

I don''t know.

Hiding
To dream that you are hiding, suggests that you are keeping some secret or withholding some information. You may not be facing up to a situation or not want to deal with an issue. However, you may be getting ready to reveal and confess before somebody finds out.

Hmmm, that I''m pregnant, maybe! (or hope to be soon!)

Pregnant
To dream that you are pregnant, symbolizes an aspect of yourself or some aspect of your personal life that is growing and developing. You may not be ready to talk about it or act on it. This may also represent the birth of a new idea, direction, project or goal. f you are really pregnant and having this dream, then it represents your anxieties about the pregnancy.

Dreams of giving birth to a non-human baby are also common during this period of the pregnancy. Finally, in the third trimester, dreams consists of your own mother. As your body changes and grows, dreams of whales, elephants and dinosaurs and other larger animals may also start appearing at this stage.

Okay, I find it amusing that 3rd trimester women dream of large animals. Heehee...Oh, I remember dreaming about the birth of my daughter and that she came out talking to me. That totally freaked me out for days!

Embarrassment
To dream that you are embarrassed, signifies hidden weaknesses, fears and lack of self-confidence. This dream also suggests of insecurities about your sexuality.

I''m worried about being able to be a good mother to two children so far apart in age. I would hate for my eldest to feel left out or hurt by another baby. It scares me a bit.
Home
In particular, to see your childhood home or a home that you no longer live in, suggests your own desires for building a family. It also reflects aspects of yourself that were prominent or developed during the time you lived in that home. You may experience some feelings or unfinished expression of emotions that are now being triggered by a waking situation.

I want to to build my family! I want a happy family w/happy children!
Wow, luckystar - you''re so cool for posting that for me!!!

So my BFF just found out she's pregnant! (She totally didn't listen to me when I said her "period" was implantation spotting.
1.gif
Psh, doesn't she know I do nothing other than read about pregnancies? Now she's urging me to get going on BDing and checking the EWCM, and I'm getting into it. Damn her. :) I never thought I'd be this interested in MUCOUS.

Metro: You totally made me never want to see a prune again. Thanks!

hi everyone!
Well at the end of last week I was very frustrated with the opk''s as they weren''t showing the surge I thought I should be having. I decided to stop testing as I was confused and just bd''d anyway. I appreciate all of your comments on the opk experiences. I think it was janine and lisa- sorry if I missed anyone else. They have been helpful for me.
This week I noticed a change- increased ewcm which was weird cause I thought I already ovulated or didn''t ovulate but I thought I was too far through my cycle. Also, sorry if this is tmi but I was feeling a little amorous...So anyhoo this morning I decided to use an opk and low and behold- it turned out positive! That means I am ovulating or gonna ovulate at like 21 days, which I would have not imagined.
I guess now I start the tww! I was really excited to see a result on the opk and I am gonna try to relax now and just find something good to do for the next bit. I am confused now though cause since its'' so late in my cycle- last month I was 31 dasy and the month before 28, I''m not sure when I''m supposed to expect AF?

Fisher, thanks for chiming in on your experience of the tww. I did read your thread from a couple of months ago- I could really relate. I promised myself I wouldn''t test until at least 31 days this month but I guess that may have to change since it seems like I ovulated late...wish me luck with the waiting.

Well I hope you guys are all doing well in your journeys. Take care :)

OK so -- what is TWW? (I know I''m lame it takes me like 10 mins. to text someone hello)

Pave, I can totally relate. Last cycle was 22 days, I had all O signs--sticks came out dark lines, we did it a lot and ....................nothing.

Today, OPK shows 2 DARK lines (day 12), no other signs and I could care less.
38.gif


Everyone''s sick in the house. Olivia''s been shreiking at the top of her lungs and projectile snot comes flying from her nose when she sneezes.

I''m thinking, do I really want to do this again? And so soon? She just turned (1) 4/4/08.

I''m begining to think our pregnancy (Olivia) was a fluke of nature.

Strange how you spend most of you life trying NOT to get pregnant and then when you want to you can''t.
33.gif


I know these feelings will pass.

It''s just so frustrating not being able to predict or control this process.....

Oh Lisa, I''m sorry that everyone is sick and things are hectic on your end. I know you''re joking about doing it again with all you are dealing with right this minute- I feel that way sometimes when I leave my friend''s house since she has a 2 yr old and a 4 month old- sooooo much work, my gosh.
I just wanted to answer you cause I''m still on the computer(of course) and it sounds like you could use a hug. A cyberhug that is.
I know it is crazy how your feelings change about wanting to be pregnant instead of worrying that you might be like when we were younger.
I hope things settle down with your family and that you guys get some time for bd''ing if you are ready. Hang in there.

Pave you unknowingly sprinkled bada-binging (bd''ing??????) thoughts through the computer and we, yep did it..

Surprise to me because he''s been in such foul spirits being sick and I have been exhausted and thinking he''s a jerk.

Day 12 + a positive OPK + sex =
emclock.gif
that damned 2 weeks!

And what is Tww???

And why not just do it every day to cover all bases? Whew, sounds like a lot a work.

Thanks, and sleep well or b''ding well yet again.

I really don''t know! But if I had to guess since my DH and I are just beginning to get into TTC mode it might mean the "two week wait" between BD and taking a test? But that is only a guess!

And PS, my hubby totally prefers your bada bing reference instead of baby dancing! He thinks it sounds so much more macho. Lol. And he is the least macho person in the world...

hello TTCers! just a quick update. so my cycles are still super long (about 42 days). i''ve only had AF twice since going off the pill in Dec. It really sucks not knowing when AF will be visiting.

at least we''re in no rush, as i just began a new job and would like to be there at least a year before having to take off for materinity leave (plus, I think it''s also a benefits thing). we''re planning to wait until mid-late July to begin TCC. I''m OK with that, as i have yet to begin charting and would really like to get a couple of cycles down before BD-ing. I just bought a basal thermometer and am good to go!

Pave, Lisa, Amber, BB, Tiffany & Lucky (sorry if i missed anyone)- here''s a sprinkling of baby dust for you

Hi Lisa,
those pictures are a hoot. I expect nothing less from my husband if and when we get to the diaper changing stage...He really struggles even to do the cat box and he is not happy about it, lol.
I tried to post to you at least twice today. I was typing from my iphone and had the whole thing written out to tell you what tww meant and I also thought of the sopranos with the bada binging. I like it. It didn''t work so I tried again but nope didn''t work. I guess I can''t post from my phone.

Neatfreak- so glad to have you join us! And Chargergirl too.Woohoo the group is growing.

Well I''m sending good thoughts everyones way. Have a great week everyone!

Hello Ladies - just checking in - thanks for the updates Amber Waves, Pavelover, Lisa, NeatFreak and ChargerGrrl! Sounds like everyone is just trying to get educated as they plug along... I think next month will be our official month to TTC. However, I am a bit nervous to start since we are going to Europe in July - hoping that I won't be sick on the trip.
2.gif


I started charting this month and unfortunately, I wasn't thinking and bought a regular fever thermometer so, I used that for more than half my cycle until I realized I made the mistake so, my chart is all over the place. I also bought some OPKs which I thought I noticed the surge last week for two days, but it's so hard to tell with those blue lines. I think next month I'm going to get the CBE Digital with the smiley face so there's no confusion.

Anyway, bottom line is that I have no concrete evidence that I o'ed so, I will try again next month. I'm also going for a pre-conception exam this Thursday. My mom had endomitriosis and absolutely no symptoms to alert her so, I want to chat with my doctor about it. I'm praying it's not something that was passed on to me or my sister.

Good luck to everyone TTC - lots of baby dust to everyone!

Oh Lisa - love the hubby with the nose plugs! That is hilarious!

So much for dreams....

I got my period this morning (a few days early). I should have known it was coming when I started crying for no real reason at all Saturday, then yesterday I ate an entire small pizza and a bowl of M&Ms
38.gif


This morning I feel horrible! I''ve feel like I''ve been bowled over by a mac truck. I''m misreable. Not only do I have my full on period aches and pains to deal with, but I''ve been dealing with a really terrible bout of allergies all weekend, which have now turned into a sinus infection
7.gif


My head hurts, my back hurts, my nose is dripping and raw from blowing so much, and my ears are about to burst everytime I blow my nose and when I breath in through my nose, I got into a sneezing fit which oddley enoungh, pushes my tampon out just enough that I have to go change it (does this happen to anyone else?) every 30-minutes or so. Oh, and let''s not forget those cramps!

Oh yes, and the cherry - it''s Monday.

Need I say more?

I want to go home. Today sucks.

Wow! I have a lot to catch up on. Lots of new TTCers, I see!
1.gif


Today is day 30 of a post m/c cycle, and I''m waiting for AF so we can start trying again! My OBGYN said we only had to wait one cycle, so I''m ready to go! I know that after a m/c, some women''s cycles can be wonky, so I don''t know what to expect.

Lisa- Adorable pictures!

blushingbride- While I know that a BBT is more accurate in predicting temp shifts, I''d think that a reg. therm would also catch it, though not with as much precision. Maybe I''m wrong? There''s still time for O!

metro- I''m so sorry- AF sucks, especially when you don''t want to see it. But think of it this way: Onto a new, fresh cycle!

Good luck everyone! I''ve got many pages to read to catch back up.

oh Metro, what a fun way to start a Monday. I''m sorry to hear that you are sick and having pms(or I guess it''s ms?) You painted a graphic picture though and it''s not that I''m laughing AT you, but I did giggle a little. Did you go to the dr for your sinus infection? I think I have had good luck with some sudafed for the congestion in addition to abx if it''s really an infection. You probably already know this but just in case. Last month I was CONVINCED I was pregnant and was disappointed when I got my period, so I can relate. Hope you are feeling better soon!

For all the ttc-ers and already moms, I have a question regarding opks- I thought I understood them but realized this morning I am still confused. If you get a positive opk for two days, are you supposed to baby dance those two days and the following day? I read the website and the insert and I know it points out your two most fertile days, I just don''t know which two they are, lol.

So, I know this is way TMI, but as far as checking my EWCM, I''m really not getting a whole lot of discharge. In reading TCOYF, they show you how to check by inserting two fingers, but I really haven''t been too keen on doing that. I''m really not sure how much I should be looking for and if I should be concerned if there''s not a whole lot. AmberWaves - I''m thinking like you are and just diving into to all this stuff. It''s so much to keep track of and I can totally see how it would drive you nuts!

Hehe...I am spending way too much time on this thread and the preggo thread.

Last night I had a dream that I was 9 months pregnant, but I didn''t have a belly at all. I went to the doctor and he gave me a medication that was supposed to make my belly pop out. So I take it, and all of a sudden I''m walking around with this huge belly. I''m like, "hey everyone! I''ve got my preggo belly finally!!!" I''m showing everyone I can.

Then I start worrying about what you all are going to think, because I''m still two months from the wedding. I wonder if I should keep it a secret from you guys so you don''t judge me!!

And I was worried because I couldn''t feel the baby. I was telling FI that I thought something was wrong, and then I felt the baby flip in my tummy (which was weird because it was a dream, and I''ve never had kids, so it was like an imagined feeling).

When I gave birth in my dream it was extremely easy. I didn''t even push. The baby just came right on out! lol.
Here''s to hoping!!!

Hello Ladies! This weekend was downtime BD-wise. It was so hot in LA I didn''t even want to sleep beside him, much less actually initiate sex. No thank you! Hopefully it will cool down today and I can see what we can do. I believe my peak ovulation days are today with a sprinkling of goodness tomorrow (but I may be off as this is an initial guess), and my CM looks a little grosser than usual.

Metro: So sorry to hear it''s one of those days. I can relate. My allergies absolutely killed me this weekend, too.

Lisa: those pictures are hilarious! I can''t wait to see my husband''s initial reaction to the stink! Good luck for the 2ww!

Nice to see you here, NF!

Charger: good luck in July and congrats on the new job!

Pave: good luck to you, too, and happy baby-making!

Ebree: I wish you luck on a speedy AF! Never thought I''d wish for AF to appear ASAP.

But I know, last night was the kind of night where snuggling equals touching pinkies, or touching toes. You don't want to be any closer. Luckily it looks like it's cooling down again. We're not TTC quite yet, but it makes me wonder how much time we'll actually have to accomplish this in the hot, hot summer! ha

Welcome Back Ebree!!!! Glad to see you. I posted asking how you were doing on a nother thread last week but I don''t think you saw it. This thread has been getting a bit more busy over the past few days. It''s great to have the support and have people to bounce things off of. I''m so happy for you that you are ready to get going again- I think my first af didn''t come until about 6 weeks after my m/c but I kinda lost track because I was not interested in trying right away. Hopefully you will resume your cycle normally. Babydust for all!!!!!

Hi pave! I didn't see your message- I seem to be working all the time lately, so I have less PS time now than when I was a full time student.

I'm doing well, though, thank you! Feeling what might be the beginning of AF cramps (which would be about right for a normal cycle), but I know post m/c cycles can be weird, so the light cramping could be anything.

Baby dust to you, and to everyone else!
