Aww sweetie, I'm sorry you got the bfn, but don't give up...you can still retest in a few days like you said. If this isn't your month at least you have all of us here to keep you company through the next one

Even though I am really sad

about it being a

I still have hope. I have now gained more hope

, since I'm just not ready to give up on my miracle I researched what possible things could affect fertility that I could try to work on well during this researching period I think I might have actually found the reason why I'm having trouble!!!!!

Well my whole life I have been anemic and while I was researching I saw a web where it said that being iron deficient can cause infertility! I did consider the possibility but I never really had it confirmed as a cause but now it is.

They were talking about some research that had been done where it showed that 1 group of women took iron supplements and the other group took none and 40% more women from the group taking supplements got pregnant than the other group

. If this is my cause than maybe if I take supplements that might help me I hope so!! They also said that when you are anemic your nails can be very brittle and my nails could get long but after a certain length they would break off, they would bend I mean really bend when I slightly pushed on them. These past two weeks I had noticed that my nails are long and they don't bend and none have broken off!!!

The reason I am anemic is because I don't eat much of anything at all that I should be eating, basically I don't eat iron rich foods, the foods that do have a good source of iron I can't eat them for some reason

I don't think I ever learned to like them, I don't eat vegetables at all or fruits and only some meats only if made in certain ways, I mean I am the pickiest person ever. After I met my fiance he has helped me eat better I've learned to eat some more healthy foods and I haven't checked if I'm still anemic but maybe since my nails are much prettier and stronger

that might mean that I'm getting better

I hope so.

Also we might be buying our first house this year yay!!!

but we will be living with my parents for a few months before we do but that's ok cause my family is cool to be with and fun. My mom got a WII from my dad for Christmas lol so we've been over here playing it a lot. We are renting but Ants mom lives with us and she's about to get married so we might just let them finish the lease cause she wants her fiance to move in the house. We'll see what happens

If any of you guys know anything about this iron deficiency issue please let me know.

Thx, baby dust to all!!!!

Right now I want to test again but I'm scared to, I really don't want to see the BFN. Before I did test early but I was hoping for my

.

since so far it came out a BFN I really don't want to know that it really is a BFN...Confusing?

Yes. In the other hand I really really would love to know that I am. It just hurts to see that BFN

Today we went to a Chinese buffet with my fiance, mom, dad and pregnant sister and we got our fortune cookies I had two fortune cookies to choose from, I was just gonna pick one up but Ant wanted to pick it for me. So there he was with his hand going back and forth over the cookies to see which one gave him a better vibe lol, finally he chose one and the fortune read " If your desires are not extravagant they will be GRANTED" I sure hope so

I think that if AF don't show up by the end of this week I will test I just pray I finally get that

Capuru · Jan 9th, 2008, 21:08 PM

Well today is here

so far AF has not arrived unless her broom is lost

I wanted to test today but my fiance wants me to wait till the 15th to make sure that if it shows up a

then it is a BFN. If this does happen I will be using an opk on the 20th though I hope I don't have to

Well I'm gonna get a full time job now hurray for me..I guess

It's not that I don't like working but now I probably won't have much time for anything hopefully this doesn't cut into my

time. I'm sorry but if I take an opk and I see that I'm about to ovulate soon I'm calling off from work

I really don't wanna loose any chances.

I'm sleepy right now so I'm gonna say bye.

Tishimouse · Jan 10th, 2008, 11:04 AM

Wishing you lots of

and fingers crossed for you this month. One of us surely will be a Big Fat Positive very soon. There seem to be so many of us waiting to test, etc right now. I can hardly wait.

Capuru · Mar 25th, 2008, 20:24 PM

Hello, I have not written for a while that's because I was just so sad that I hadn't gotten my

and I didn't know what to do. I'm still trying and praying but I haven't had any results yet

. I tested this month on the 15th and of course bfn! Yesterday was my fiances b-day

and on the 23rd I took a test in the morning for just in case and it was a BFN....I was hoping I could give him the greatest birthday present.

Well I've been looking for hope all over the web for tips every single day and reading peoples success stories. I found this interesting thing about cp and cm, how you can monitor both to detect possible ovulation and this month I decided to try it. It was soft and high on the 23rd but cm was not ewcm type but it was a little stretchy so I

just in case, I checked today and my cp is low and medium!

Did I ovulate? I usually am supposed to 25th-31st in the month maybe it happened early, and I only bedded once and the cm wasn't so good.

I might have missed my chance

I did try something different this month because I have a tipped uterus so we tried it doggy style on that day hopefully maybe that helped. A weired thing also I have not seen

af since January but it happens sometimes where I miss her for a month but not two, I eventually bleed sometime in the next month. We'll see this month maybe she won't visit for a very good reason.

If anyone has any tips they can give me that would be great

. Thnx

Wondered where you had been hunni!! Glad your ok!!

Capuru · Mar 25th, 2008, 23:15 PM

Ok just now I checked my cp and cm and my cp is higher and I have more watery cm so that is a very good thing it's not a whole lot but that might mean I didn't O yet so we got more time to dtd

I'm gonna temp in the mornings to see if I see any dips or rises I do try to temp regularly but sometimes I don't, I used to temp like crazy but recently I've laid off of it. I soooooooo hope this is our month!!

Capuru · Mar 26th, 2008, 20:24 PM

Today I plan to dtd, the signs this morning were good. I did do a lot of studying for me and It looks like a might have a 29 day cycle this stuff can be very confusing, so I'm on mymonthlycycles.com and it says I might ovulate on the 28th

well I'm going to

all these days just to cover all opportunities.

Right now I feel like little twitches near what feels like might be my ovaries and I feel a little full, I also feel (tmi) a little wet

nothing hurts and I don't feel weird. but I hope this month his warriors catch the egg or eggs

We are moving this week to my fil's house while we're there we're going to save up. It was supposed to be to my parents house but his dad has an extra room. Ant might be getting a new job in Sarasota County and he would have to go live with his cousin up there for a while till we get an apartment over there. It's not for sure yet but his friend is trying to make a job opening for him and it is a great job with good benefits.

I still have no luck with jobs but maybe if we move over there I'll have better luck.
