Any mommies due in Jan, Feb, March 2013 looking for a birth group on FB to share experiences/pictures, share advice and become friends during their pregnancies, birth and after?

How long should post partum bleeding last? I called my doc around 5 weeks because I had an increase in very bright red blood. It only lasted about 8 hours and wasn't heavy kind of like the beginning of a period. I am no 7 weeks and have had red blood on and off for the past week. Should I be concerned. Of course when I went in for my 6 week checkup I had no bleeding and seemed like I was back to normal. Should I call my doctor again or just give it more time? I have no fever, cramping or any other problems other than the bleeding.

Anyone know a travel site that I can put in the airport I want to leave from and then get a lot of different destinations to travel to without picking one? I know what dates I want to travel and I have a price range just want somewhere random.

I have little to no side effects when I take 500,1000 mg but if I take 1500mg I feel sick and spend half my morning in the bathroom. I have found if I take 2000mg I don't feel nearly as bad. Maybe only 1 day a week I feel sick. Is this a normal reaction to an increased dose? I am taking Metformin for PCOS.

My son will be 2 in less than a week and he has no sign of any yet. Just wondering what the average age is for them to appear.

I had my IUI today looking for someone who is around the same day in their cycle. Either ovulating soon or had an IUI. This 2WW is going to be a long one. Send me a message and we can exchange emails or respond to my question. Thanks and lots of baby dust to all you TTC'ers out there.

I had my IUI last Tuesday so my 2WW wait is half over. Just wondering if anyone else is going through it and what they are feeling. This was my first month of injectables (follistim). I have PCOS and have been TTC for 9 months now.

I have polycystic ovaries. I also had a ganglion cyst removed from my hand. I just found out that I have a Bartholin Gland Cyst. The PC ovaires is caused by hormones and not sure what caused the other 2 cysts but just wondering if anyone knows of them being related to each other and if I can expect more cysts in my future?

I know the first shot is to be given at 12 months and the next is supposed to be at least 6 months after. Is there a maximum time between doses? My son did not get an 18 month checkup but will be going in at 24 months. Will he still be able to get his vaccine?

The top test is CD 10. This is my first month trying Femara, 5mg CD3-7. I did not get a positive one while I was on clomid until CD21. Just wondering if anyone else thinks CD12 looks like a positive test. Is there a chance it could have been a false positive? Never had a cycle with what looks like a positive this early.

My cycle last month was 37 days with 150mg of clomid. I took a pregnancy test yesterday morning it was BFN but still no sign of my AF. I got my LH surge on CD21. Anyone else had this happen to them while on Clomid?

This month my doc wants me to take Clomid and Femara. This is my 5th cycle of clomid and I will be getting a trigger shot and doing IUI. Last month I had a follicle check on CD 12 and I had two follicles but they were only size 10. I couldn't find any info online about anyone taking Clomid and Femara just wondering if its something new that my doc is trying. He is always on top of the latest trends and procedures. Really ... really hope this will be month.

When did you start taking it and how long did you take it for? My doc gave me a 30 day supply and I have read that most people only take it for a short time but my doc didn't tell me how long to take it. I am going to call my doc and Monday but till then would like to figure out if I am the only one taking for until he tells me to stop.

Just wondering if anyone else out there had an IUI on or near the 17th. Looking for someone to talk to during my 2WW. I get to test New Year's Eve Day.

I went in yesterday cycle day 11 for a follicle check. I had two follicles size 10 which my doc said is very small. We are going to wait till cycle 17 for the ovidrel shot and then 36 hours later for the IUI procedure. Last months cycle was 32 days long and I had a positive OPK on CD 17. I took the same dosage of clomid this month. Could that explain why my follicles are so small or are my chances of getting pregnant really not that good this cycle? Yesterday was a really tough day so I am hoping for a little hope that it could be a normal size if I didnt ovulate till CD17 last month.

How much did it actually cost you not just estimated costs? This is will be my first time trying IUI. My insurance does not cover any of it so I am trying to figure out how much I need to save up and if I can afford to do more than one month.

This is my 4th cycle of clomid and we have decided to try IUI with it. I conceived my son on cycle 3 of clomid 2 years ago. Just wondering what to expect with IUI and if my chances of conceiving will increase?

Is this normal or should I be worried? Everything that I have read says that this about the time they start saying no. He doesn't even really say mama or dada. He used to try but now he doesn't say them much anymore. He has sounds for more and sometimes he will say cat. When I ask him to do something he understands what to do. He knows what words mean he just doesn't want to say them. Should I be worried and does anyone have any advice?

My doc told me to take a pregnancy test 30 days after the first day of my last period and if I was not pregnant I could start taking clomid again. How do I convince myself that there is not a chance that I am pregnant? I took two tests one on day 28 and one today day 31 and did not get a 2nd line. I tested for an LH surge from days 10-21 and did not get one. Its very unlikely that I am pregnant but there is always a chance that I could be and I cant seem to convince myself to start my 2nd cycle of clomid. My doc is a great doctor and specializes in infertility and I know he would not tell me do something that he thought was bad for me but I always think the worst could happen.

I conceived my first son after 3 rounds of clomid. He is 14 months old and we have decided to try for #2. My doc prescribed medoxypr since I have not had a period for 3 months. Then to take clomid days 3-7 like last time. Are the chances of getting pregnant the 2nd time better or worse? I am also on 1500mg of Metformin but it does not help me to ovulate.
