@Marmite83 OMG am I really doing this?

Asked the nurse about BDing and she said if we've BD’d around O probably best to wait for Af to start, but we’ve got all our prescriptions and a sharps box and needles ready to start IVF.

Wow this is gonna be a long 2WW 😳.

Which will it be (last minute BFP or legal druggie, by a week on Wednesday).

Good luck @doomkittycleo, I really hope you don't need all those sharps in the end!

Bad news for me today, our little baby's heartbeat is no longer there, I just feel numb. Surgery booked for Monday and then my clinic wants me to wait until I've had a natural period before we can do an FET. Just wish I could fast forward a few weeks!

@Marmite83 💔💔 heartbroken for you. No words

Marmite83 · 13/09/2019 19:38

Thanks ladies, feeling pretty heartbroken but I've been here before and know I'll get through it. Planning to eat my body weight in pizza tonight and will probably continue to eat everything I've been denying myself all weekend. Then back to behaving from next week so we can try naturally next cycle.

So I'm feeling a bit bummed out. Yesterday's internal scan looked good with 1x 18mm follicle and doc said I can start opk testing (I had started from CD9 anyway hehe) and said I should get a positive by weekend. I'm worried as they've been very light ever since I started testing, sigh* why would she get my hopes up!

@Rinoa, 😞 don’t want to worry you, but if no positive opk within 3-4 days you could end up with multiple follicles or a cyst.

That’s what happened to me on clomid when I finally got a tracked cycle privately.

Hence me stopping the clomid.

Hopefully that’s not the case for you, but definitely go for another scan if you don’t get a positive opk within a few days.

@Marmite83 I’m so, so sorry to read this. We are all desperate for that positive test but that is only just the tip of the iceberg.
Take care of yourself. Xx

@Riona just keep testing....it’s only Saturday so still every chance to could get a positive and it’s still quite early in your cycle, especially if you have long cycles.

@doomkittycleo yea I'm pretty worried. But the doc seemed so sure I would ovulate. I told her what do I do if I don't get a positive she's like "you will" lol if you don't call us. Which it's looking like I might have to 

@BinkyB4 yea I asked the doc if I will ovulate later as I have long cycles, she said no because the Clomid is meant to regulate the cycle so it should be any day now smh i hate not knowing! I'd rather hear the bad than keep in lingo.

@AmyMaria2 thank u!

Ladies! I opk tested this morning at 8am and the digital was negative but cheap one seemed to be darker from yesterday, then I tested again at 10am (yes I know very soon but I just wanted to use up tests as morale was low) then this happened ! I cried and DH didn't understand why LOL I'm glad he's not as stressed as me, one of us has to stay sane!

Now I will have to go for a blood test in 7 days to confirm if I ovulated. Wish me luck girls!
