Ovulating twice in one cycle?!

Something strange is happening; I got a positive ovulation test on the 17th and 18th and a negative on the 19th and 20th but another positive on the 21st and 22nd. On the 20th my temperature dipped to 97.44 and spiked to 97.88 on the 21st . This is the second time this cycle my temperature dipped and spiked. I'm not sure if I ovulated around my first spiked or the second time my temperature dipped and spiked. I'm so confused! I'm hoping that the reason I'm getting positive opks is because I'm pregnant.  The ovulation LH and the pregnancy hormone HCG are identical therefore when a opk is dipped in the urine it will detect the hcg hormone as well as the LH making the test line appear darker. I took 3 pregnancy test already and each one revealed that I wasn't pregnant. I'm still very hopeful though. I pray this is our month. I will take another test around the 27th; I would be around 10 dpo by then.  Anywhoo that's what's going on in my neck of the woods :) ttys

Grey

I have been thinking about baby names lately and I have officially fell in love with the name Grey. I am also fond of Asia too but I'm really loving Grey for my future daughters name. I haven't put much thought into boys name but I do like the name Elijah or Eli. My husband thinks it's only fair he name our next baby since I named our first two daughters. Guess what name he suggested! Go ahead, guess! Seven. Yep, you're reading that right don't go find your glasses or put on your contacts :) Seven,  S-E-V-E-N.. and guess what else! I kinda like it too!

Call me crazy!!

It's happening again! I am getting that feeling and I'm claiming it! I don't know if you're familiar with saying. My sister says it a lot. When she is looking for a job instead of saying I hope I find a job she would claim it by saying I WILL find a job. So I am claiming my blessing today I will be pregnant by March 30th 2013. I have a feeling I will be pregnant before that date. I don't really have any signs or symptoms..just my faith which is more than enough. I told  my husband I want to be pregnant by that date and he doesn't think its a good idea to put a date on it. I know he is trying to protect me from getting hurt in case I don't conceive by then. I bought some opks from early pregnancy test.com through Amazon website. It was cheaper; I purchased 40 opks and 10 pregnancy tests for 24.00 free S&H. On earlypregnancytests.com it was 24.00 for 25 opks, so I got a good deal! The only downside to that deal is its taking an extra 5 days to receive my package. I think I already missed my ovulation because my temp dropped to 96.80. I'll see if it spikes tomorrow!! Fingers crossed

It's 6 am

It's 6:00 am and I find myself on early-pregnancy-tests.com looking at pre-seed, fertility monitors ect..sigh.. I am so anxious to see that BFP especially after I just found out my sister is 8 weeks pregnant. I miscarried Dec. 5th and I found out she was pregnant Dec 10th. I'm not sure if I mentioned this before but when she was 15 she and I were pregnant at the same time. I went into preterm labor and gave birth November 18, 2007 she gave birth to her son November 29,2007. I cannot tell you how awful I felt. I was happy she gave birth to a healthy baby boy but I was severely depressed for months. So this situation seem all too familiar minus the depression. There are days when I feel down but I quickly pick myself up. Honestly, I don't have time to be depressed. I have a house hold to run, clothes to wash, food to cook, laundry to fold. You get my dreft, oh I mean drift. :) My husband is a great listener and he feels everything will happen when God wants it to. So until then I guess I will be charting, taking opk's and my prenatal vitamins. Oh, speaking of vitamins i went to my local health food store and bought New Chapter Perfect Prenatal. The prenatals were 25.00 for 48 pills; which you're suppose to take 3x a day. Kinda pricey, I know! But they are Organic and whole food based so I thought I would give them a try. I take 2 instead of 3 a day, one in the morning and one at night. I plan on getting some opk's, but I really want a fertility monitor.preferably an ovacue but I will settle for a clearblue fertility monitor. My husband don't think we need it. I will remember that the next time we're at Hastings and he is trying to buy a Madden Football Game (lol) Until next time ttys :)

Just Rambling

Lately I have been trying to decide which prenatal vitamins  I should take. I have the prenatal vitamins I was taking with my last pregnancy but I don't like them very much. This may be a coincidence but every time I take them I begin to spot. I know that sound crazy but it happened twice so I stop taking them completely and I haven't bled since. I have heard great things about New Chapter Prenatal Vitamins, but I also like Nature Made; which is what I took with my daughter along with Expecta Lipil DHA.  I also need to start back drinking more water,after the miscarriage I stop drinking as much as I should. As far as ttc goes I am charting. For those who aren't familiar with the ttc lingo ttc stands for trying to concieve..My temp is all over the place because of the miscarriage. I read in the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility ( I think) that your body might "think" your miscarriage was a cycle if you miscarried early. So things may return back to normal sooner. I am hoping this will happen for me.

The Beginning of Our Journey

After 3 years and 2 miscarriages later I finally saw that word I waited so long for.."PREGNANT"
 I couldn't believe it even though i had been telling my husband all October that I would be pregnant by the end of November. I'm not sure if he believed it though.. I
 saw this inspirational video on youtube about writing down your goals she also quoted a bible verse as well. Needless to say i was moved' i decided to write down all the things I hoped for and among those things was becoming pregnant before the year ended. On November 13th i started spotting and I immediately thought I was pregnant. I know any sane person would have thought that their cycle was about to start. It had been two months since my last cycle (my cycles are very irregular to say the least)
Long story short after i saw the spotting and I immediately went to the store after my husband left for work. I quickly came home and took the test. The test came back PREGNANT.. I sent a pic of the test to my hubby; we both were excited. That excitement was short lived after I started bleeding on December 1st. I had an appt on Dec 3rd an ultra-sound was done and we saw the yoke sac which measured at 5 weeks and 1 day. I left the doctor thinking everything would be ok. I bleed with my daughter and my first pregnancy which ended abruptly at 5 mth. i went into preterm labor and my daughter passed shortly after birth. With that being said i didn't lose hope when i began to bleed but then i started cramping. i kept telling my husband i don't remember cramping or being in any pain. i began to bleed more. i called my doctor and i basically was told i was miscarrying and to take  tylenol. I didn't want to hear that, i didn't want to believe that i was miscarrying. On December 11 i had an ultra sound appt and by this time the bleeding had almost stopped a little brown spotting here and there. I was hopeful and scared. Finally the doctor came in to do the ultra sound and as soon as h bega I knew I miscarried. During the ultra sound he said your uterus cleaned itself out nicely..seriously those were his first words. I tried my best to hold back my tears as long as i could. I wanted to run out as soin as i heard those words. My husband was in the parking lot with our daughter waiting; I couldn't wait to run into his arms. I was told i miscarried Dec 5th; which was when i began bleeding heavy. We are now trying to concieve our rainbow baby :)
