@ Nicola, I am glad that things are so much better this time around. I just cannot understand some doctors :headbang: at least you know now for sure what the pain was about and now you can move forward. How long must you wait till you can start ttc again? Yes take it easy for a few days.

@ Chanti, any news for us?

@ Cands, I wish that I would do more exercise and gained 3kg this month! :swear: I always enjoyed walking and the fresh air does wonders.

@ Reece, when I got my BFP, I had a 1 degree dip at 4DPO and never again and I think that dip was just a fluke. So hang in there as people have no implantation bleeding or the dip and is still pregnant.

AFM, AF is on her way and of that I am sure. Oh well

HI ladies

@Chanti great to hear from you! Finger and toes crossed for you xxx
@Reese, @Jaybee, @Angel fingers crossed for you too!! Keep us posted

To all the other ladies having various appointments etc good luck!!!

AFM...am day 2 recovery after my laparoscopy on Wednesday. They found severe endometriosis on my left side and behind my uterus, now I know why all the pain was always on my left. I'll find out more next week at my follow up though! Such a massive weight off my shoulders I can't even tell you, after the last nightmare lap with the gynae who told me I was 'all clear' and the pain was 'just IBS'. I am just so glad I trusted my instincts and sought a second opinion with a specialist, wish I had done this from the start. Hopefully this now means no more pain and a baby in the not too distant future. Feeling strong and happy! Even my recovery is different, last year I was in SO much pain, my cut was infected and my body was just tight and sore. I am up and about now and not in a lot of pain at all, but am taking it very easy anyway. So all in all just feeling very positive finally!

Sending lots of love and babydust to you all

@Chanti, it's wonderful how God speaks to us through His Word! :-)

Aww, thank you for your kind words, I really hope that you are right. I know that I ovulated from the left this month, and I didn't experience a lot of cramping, only around 5-6DPO but not much really and even on my chart I couldn't see the infamous "implantation dip." This is also the very first cycle I didn't have any spotting - at all! So hopefully it will still come!
I'm going to pray that you are right and that I am experiencing late implantation. :-)

@Reese - The verse jumped out at me yesterday and has given me hope. You are definitely not out yet! You might only be implanting now. I had a cramp or two and some spotting at 10-12dpo and thought that it was AF on her way but it wasn't!

@Chanti, what a beautiful verse! I am praying that God will bless this pregnancy and I have a feeling that you will be okay. :)
Keep us posted!

My temp dropped this morning :-( did a test and BFN. I felt a little discouraged at first, but I know that I have to be patient. It might not happen this month.I'm not sure about these PT. I live in South Africa and honestly don't know which test is the best.

I am on 11DPO and AF due Monday (apparently). I have decided not to do any more tests until Monday. A promise I made to myself.
I have had some mild mid abdominal cramps (very light) and assume that it can be AF on its way.

Hope you all have a wonderful day.

Hey ladies,

@Jooste - Thanks hun!

So I got my BETA back last night and HCG is only at 16. I have another test tomorrow morning to see if the numbers are rising. I still feel very at peace about everything even though the lab technician says the viability of the pregnancy is not looking good. My doctors rooms had nothing bad to say and just said I must repeat the test again tomorrow. I will also test again at home in the morning and see if the test is darker this time around.

"So that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power." 1 Corinthians 2:5

@Reese - How is that chart looking?

@Angel - How are you feeling?
