Hey yall! Just checking in with everyones info and I hope we get some bfps soon!

Jillandmatt , if you don't mind me asking, what kind of cysts are they? i went to the er a few months after having our youngest because I had severe pain on my right side and they said I had functional cysts that formed from not ovulating. So instead of the follicle rupturing and the cyst shrinking, it just stayed and got bigger, but it did go away after a few months..those cysts are something else, arent they?

I have no clue. All I was told is That I had a small cyst on my right ovary and to come back to the ER If the pain got worse. Since I cann't see a doc on base till aug. He never ever said anything about it causing my periods to stop but common sense would say thats the issue.

I'm actually waiting on matt to get home so He can drag my butt to the ER again.

hmmm...that sounds like it may be the same type I had..those are usually harmless, unless they rupture or get abnormally large.
do u have months of anovulation?

Well, here is the update on our TTC journey. I think I MIGHT be pregnant, but I'm not sure. The problem with me, is that when I'm pregnant, I always FEEL like I'm going to start my period but then don't. That is where I'm at now. For the past few days, I've felt like I was going to start... but haven't.
I've also had the fatigue (could just be from the stress of moving, Punky waking up scared 3 or 4 times a night, etc...) and the sore boobs (I get that sometimes with my period) so there is really nothing to do but take a HPT to see.
Unfortunately, we are waiting for our money (bonus, DLA, regular pay) and are ridiculously BROKE until then. The move zapped all our savings. Roll Eyes
I haven't been this broke since college! Sigh.. So, I'm waiting to either start my period or get paid so I can buy a test. Ugh!
Good luck to everyone who's TTC!! Smile

Duty Station: Bangor, WA

Current Deployment? nope, and not for awhile, hopefully

Any children? just a kitty

How long have you been ttc? officially, this was our first month trying, but I've been off bc since march. He was gone for 3 months between then and now though, so it doesn't really count.

Anything specific you are trying to use to help? Just charting. I'm going to try robitussen this month to see if that helps. I had a cone biopsy done a few years ago for hpv, and now I don't have much fertile cm.

**baby dust for everybody**

Yep thats what I got ..some motrin for the pain and that was it. After I ovulated the pain subsided a bit...how long does it take to get an appt on base? We have an offpost pcm so it normally doesn't take too long.

That is a good thing. That way you won't have to waste money on a test lol. I can't even begin to tell you how much money I have wasted on tests because i knew I was pg lol. My husband has to hide them from me!! But like Jill said, The Dollar tree has good tests and they are cheap. Razz

hi Beth!! I tried Robitussen a few months back and I couldn't tell a difference...next cycle I am going to try Evening Primrose Oil. It is said to make your cm abundant!!

i don't chart per se..but I do have a "calendar" at mymonthlycycles.com...its kinda like charting, but I don't temp or anything...just track my cyle and note symptoms, period, etc...

I have no Idea its a new base. being brand new to the area I really didn't want to try to mess with trying to find a civi doc. I think all the pain was from starting my period... because the first time it came on was when I Ovulated. So hopfully its one of those freak things that goes away on its own. but we'll see.

the first time I was in pain was when I Ovulated. but for some reason it came back right before my period. Which I suppose is normal. But no one told me that.
