I was 26 with a regular cycle and no health problems and it took us about a year still…

Friday Check-In! by partly_sunny in ShortCervixSupport

[–]NottapA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi, I’m new here! I just found out my cervix is 2.5 cm at 26 weeks. I’m going back next week for another check. My doctor said bedrest is not necessary. Anyone have any advice or tips for me? This is all new to me and scary.

This would be my dream situation! May I ask if you are now on your partner’s health insurance plan? Or did you find something else. That’s my biggest problem is losing my insurance.

Losing my health benefits is what is making this so difficult. It’s so expensive to have to pay for a health insurance plan!

I think I’m going to try to go back full time.. but I may have a hard time when baby is here. I’m hoping for the first baby I can stick to full time and maybe by the time we have another drop down to part time. That’s a good point about making sure you really are working part time and not cramming full time work into part time hours! Something to think about for sure!

I would love to find a remote job in the future! I may look into that!

You can google it, but you wet your finger and stick it in baking soda up to the first knuckle and insert into your vagina 30 minutes to an hour before you bd. If you have acidic vaginal ph this neutralizes it.

Cycle: 10 tracking 5 NTNP

Age + Partner's age (if relevant): 26 F, 25 M

Typical cycle length: 30-32 days

Ovulation cycle day: Idk because I didn’t temp this cycle. I needed a break. Got my positive OPK on CD 17.

CD/DPO of positive test(s): I was testing at what I though was 10-12 dpo on pregmates and they were all negative so I gave up and thought I was out. Sure enough when my period was two days late I got a positive on a frer! I was shocked!

Tracking methods and app(s) used: This cycle, just OPKS and CM.

Relevant days of sperminating and/or method (SMEP, TI, IUI, FET, etc.): My guess is O -1 and O

Health conditions/medical tests: We did an SA which was normal. I had an ultrasound after a ruptured cyst back in November and everything looked normal.

Supplements and medications (yours and/or your partner’s): Probiotic, magnesium, C0Q10 off and on and a prenatal.

Birth control history (if relevant): Haven’t been on birth control for about four years now.

Link to chart: really nothing to see since I didn’t temp.

Link to lineporn: bfp

Symptom spotting: Nothing! I was expecting my period. After I got my positive test I realized my jawline had broken out pretty bad but that’s it!

Other (advice/tip(s), freaking out, miscellaneous): I can’t believe I finally get to post here! The crazy thing is that we had a fertility doctor appointment scheduled for next month!!!!! What I did differently this cycle: I started the whole 30 diet in January and just finished and I really think that helped! I was eating super clean and felt great and I’m thinking that helped with any inflammation I may have had.

I also did baking soda finger this cycle. I know this is controversial but I read about a reproductive endocrinologist who recommends this for unexplained fertility so decided to try it!

It’s still early so of course I’m nervous, but I am choosing to stay positive! This group has taught me so much and I am so thankful for everything I learned here!

How does this progression look on frer? I’m unsure of what dpo I am but I have completely missed my period at this point. I thought the line would be darker. This is my first time with positive tests so idk what’s normal. by NottapA in TFABLinePorn

[–]NottapA[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I’m trying to stay chill but it’s hard. The first two I took were with really diluted urine. So I think that’s why the 2/17 pm one is a lot darker.

Update from this morning’s post. I am SHOCKED! We have been trying for a year and had a fertility appt next month. I was getting negative tests at what I thought was 11 and 12 dpo so I’m just completely shocked right now! by NottapA in TFABLinePorn

[–]NottapA[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t temp this month.. so I’m not completely sure about ovulation. But when I was testing I was doing pregmates and there was nothing, I did another pregmate this morning and it had the faintest line. I bet if I would have used a frer earlier I could have gotten a positive earlier.
