Starting to get excited

MountainMomma · #1 November 5th, 2008, 08:51 AM

I'm 9 dpo. My cervix is still high firm and closed and has been since ovulation. I've had a dull ache in my lower abdomen all along too. I have had a strange burning sensation in my boobs pretty much since ovulation and now they are painful to the touch and itch really bad. I had to nap yesterday (actually fell asleep watching a movie), and seriously considering it again today. I've had alot of creamy CM. This morning DH pointed out that I have be belching non stop for 2 or 3 days. Also yesterday and today both I woke up at 4 and 5 am STARVING and had to have breakfast even though I normally don't eat until 10, 11 or later!

I'm getting really hopeful that maybe Clomid did the trick. I'm waiting to hear back about the results of my progesterone test (should know in a few hours). Other than that, I am being stubborn and refusing to test until the 15th which is 19 dpo, so I figure if AF hasn't shown by then she probably isn't going to. I'm really excited, really nervous and already making plans to have myself committed if I don't get a BFP this cycle because I am seriously going CRAZY if all of this is IPS!

Can you pretty please send me some baby dust?!? After 31 cycles.....IT SHOULD BE MY TURN!!!

All your symptoms sound super promising!!! I hope this is it for you. I especially can relate to the being really hungry in the morning. That was always my first sign. Lots of baby dust your way! I'm proud of your resolve to hold off on testing...I can never wait.

sounds promising hun

:dust

is belching a sign of pregnancy? i know i have always had it from the other end but the last 2 days ive been belching so much and so loud that the kids have been in fits of giggles about it

I belched alot while pregnant with DD. With DS it was the other end though.

My resolve to not test is not normally so strong. Any other cycle I have started testing at 5 or 6 dpo. I just decided I'd had enough heartache that way though. I'll admit though....I made Matt (DH) hide my tests to that I can't test and made him promise not to give them back until the 15th. Otherwise I would totally cave.....probably tomorrow!

IDK... he is usually a bad POAS pusher, but he did hide them for me. I think if he stops and thinks for a minute and realizes that AF would be due on the 8th if I had a normal cycle (not sure how the Clomid is going to change that though so I am holding out) he will probably have me POAS on Monday or Tuesday.

Wee3monkeys · #11 November 5th, 2008, 11:29 AM

Tons of dust, Steph!!!! I soooo hope this is your cycle!!!!!

Mellza · #12 November 5th, 2008, 11:46 AM

i hope that this is it!

MountainMomma · #13 November 5th, 2008, 12:31 PM

Thanks ladies. Every time I start feeling hopeful though another test comes along and sends me crashing back down to reality. Even with the Clomid my progesterone is only at 10. We were hoping for nearly double that. Now all that's left to do is wait for AF and call the RE tomorrow and see what he recommends.

I seriously hate TTC.

Wee3monkeys · #15 November 5th, 2008, 01:21 PM

Why don't they call you in a supplement?!?!?!? I got pg, and mine was a 9 at wk 6; so there's still hope, Steph!!

Call and ask for a supplement!!!!!!

Steph what day did you get the progest done? If is was cd 21 like most dr's ask then 10 is great since you only Oed cd18 ( the progest number's is based on acually being 7dpo on cd21)
