If mothering was easy, FATHERS would do it. Group: Members Posts: 5,687 Member No.: 8,444 Joined: 31-January 07	I'm in the 2ww, and it's so hard. I took mucinex and it really did make a huge difference in my cervical mucus. I'm wondering if that wasn't the problem all along. But what if I get to the end and start my period? What then? I don't feel like I can take it, to be honest. But it's amazing what you can take... I'm trying not to freak out, but that's what I feel like doing. I know I ovulated 3 or 4 days ago, but stupid fertilityfriend.com hasn't detected it yet. I think it's because the rise in BBT was gradual this time, instead of sudden. I know I'm rambling, but I'm upset. I love this board, but sometimes I end up sad, even though I'm happy for the pregnant people. And I LOVE looking at everybody's pictures. I hate being an outsider. Nobody has treated me that way, BTW...it's all me. There's something that's really puzzling me. My boobs are still so sore...they have been for over 2 months. The odd thing is that I never used to have this problem. The most was a little nipple soreness right before my period. But this isn't the nipples and it doesn't go away. I'm wondering if maybe something is wrong with me. Well, I'm going for the blood test on Friday to check hormone levels, etc...maybe I will ask her then. I guess that's all for now. Peace out. --------------------

Sounds like you might be onto something here. Anything that makes it easier for the little swimmers is worth a try!

Don't get disppointed if it doesnt happen this time, I am sure the doctors will help you find a solution!!! Sounds like you are healthy...you just need a good game plan in place.

I think you should take some meds to help out with conceiving....jmo. That way you can move forward with having your family grow, sometimes people just need that little extra kick.

When did you BD? Did you do it every other day before you ovulated and during ovulation?

I think that pretty much covers the bases, huh? I think there was another, too. We might have done it 4 days before, as well. --------------------

If mothering was easy, FATHERS would do it. Group: Members Posts: 5,687 Member No.: 8,444 Joined: 31-January 07	That's how I feel right now. I had it for a few minutes yesterday. Don't worry, it's not me trying to convince myself that I'm pregnant. I had a period with major cramps this last time, plus I'm only about 3 or 4 days past ovulation. I just feel so crappy lately. --------------------

Silver Member Group: Validating Posts: 818 Member No.: 5,175 Joined: 7-September 06	Is it blood work to see if you are pregnant or is it other type of blood work?? -------------------- Wife to Jay and mom of 3...soon to be 4!!! It's a boy! Jake Benjamin

Group: Members Posts: 5,687 Member No.: 8,444 Joined: 31-January 07	It's to check hormone levels...estrogen, progesterone, etc...I don't know what else we will do. I'm about 5 days past ovulation now, so I should know if I'm pregnant before too long. Even if the egg and sperm are together, I don't think a blood test would show it right now. I don't think it has even had time to implant, and that's when you start producing HCG. Anyway, I hope to know the results today. I'll update when I know. --------------------

If mothering was easy, FATHERS would do it. Group: Members Posts: 5,687 Member No.: 8,444 Joined: 31-January 07	I had to be stuck 3 times cause my veins didn't want to give up any blood. They had to move the needle around in all those places and it finally worked. On top of that, I won't have any results until at least wednesday...if then. My doctor's daughter is getting married and she will be out of the office most of next week. sigh Life is one big ol' waiting game, isn't it? --------------------

Man, I seriously daydream about being pregnant...I dream about it at night sometimes. I just think about it a lot. I wish I could stop thinking about it, believe me; its not fun, especially when everybody and their mothers are pregnant. I'm gonna be the happiest person in the world when I get pregnant! --------------------

Group: Members Posts: 5,687 Member No.: 8,444 Joined: 31-January 07	When I get home tonight, I will post my chart from my current cycle. it's on cyclewatch.com, and I have it saved on my documents. The mucinex definitely made a difference. I feel really good about this. Also, I have been having some creamy CM. It was a little yellow a couple of times, and I read that it happens during pregnancy...it doesn't mean i am, but you know. I usually don't get any. I will post that pic tonight, so get ready for it! It won't be til nearly 10, so you might wanna check tomorrow --------------------
