Trying to Conceive Thread . . . .3!!

NEW THREAD STARTED!!!!!!!!!

Trying to conceive 4

see ya there!

Quackers, Thankyou so much for taking time out to find out. I called doc today and he said the tablets shouldnt have caused the bleeding and that implantation could have happened DPO4!!!!! I want to be so excited but must wait until next week. The cramping is still here but not so bad, a bit like AF but not if you know what i mean.

I am not ready for another let down

Hugs to all of you who didnt get the BFP this cycle but sending you lots of Baby Dust.

(((hugs))))

Sorry if this is being a bit bumptious, but could we think about starting up a new ttc thread soon? This thread is taking LOADS of time for my computer to load!

Cha Cha, just had alook. Good news is 3 out of the 10 pgcy charts I looked at had a dip/spotting 5 DPO, BUT the chances of a successful pgcy occuring were when the dip/spotting was 7-8 DPO. However there were plently of pgcy charts with a dip/spotting at 5 DPO!!!!
HTH you. BTW. a pgcy test will work best now 7 days after a possible implantation if that helps you!!!!!

Oh BUnny, I am sorry Well, new cycle, new Clomid, new set of sessions. Wishing you lots of luck!! You too Jellycat, Ermentrude and all of you!!!! ChaCha, if you're absolutley sure about your ov day then it is slightly early for an imp bleed as the others have said. However there are some charts on FF that do show imp on day 5. I'll try and have another look later and see if these reulted in pgcy or not.

Just found out another friend is pregnant! Happy for her but jealous (despite the morning sickness she is suffering!) Another OPK sucessful user.

ChaCha - sorry to hear about your cramps etc; how are your feeling today?

Bunny2 and Ermentrude too - I didn't realise AF had arrived. I've been temping for the first time this month (but only started CD7) - unfortunately have no advice about your low temperatures. I have noticed that after I temp first thing (normally in the dark - arrgh, why isn't the display back-lit?) and check it later, the temperature shown straight away is the accurate one, but then it defaults to 36.5. I'm in two minds about this temping business - while it is nice to gain a better understanding of your cycle, it makes you obsessed every single day of the month, rather than just ov-time and the end of the cycle.

Hi bunny - 35.1 is the lowest - but then I try afew more times and it changes to 36.something.

I am using a BBT thermomter and following the instructions religiously - the charts in the leaflet don't go as low as 35.something.

I have joined fertility friends but haven't put informtion in yet - will do that this evening.

Could I have a faulty thermometer?

Hi Ermentrude. How low are your temps? Is it a basal body temp thermometer? If you havent joined Fertility Friends, do so now. IT is free and they will analyse your charts and give advice/answer your questions etc. It is a very useful site.

Hi there folks! Been temping since sunday and arrival of AF but I think I must be doing something wrong, as my temperature readings are off the bottom of the chart! I have to do the reading about 6 times to get a stable reading. I am following the instructions properly. Any advice?

OK, just Googled and found some for £9.

Wow - not bad! Where are you getting them from and do they do Persona sticks (I've a feeling you can only get them in Boots).

I'm ordering a bumber box of 20 plus 5 pg tests for a bargain price of £18.69. Should keep me going a while.

Not yet - I was being optimistic and not investing my £10 for the next box of Persona sticks until I knew for sure. I'll get some on Saturday. It won't ask for a test until Tuesday.

Wow, we are so close. Are you well stocked up with pissy sticks for the next cycle?

Hi bunny, I've had about a glass and a half now, hic ! I ov'ed CD15.

ChaCha, if you are 5 dpo, it is unlikely to be an implantation bleed. Could you be a day or 2 out with your ovulation date? Perhaps you are 6 or 7 dpo, then an implantaton bleed would be more likely. Hope so, fingers crossed for you.

Hana, it sounds lovely over there, I like proper snow, ds would love it. I cant believe how insensitive some people can be. Fancy your sil going on about her fertility, I'd want to smack her!

Jellycat, I've had 2 glasses of wine already. Might have a third, after all if I strike it lucky next month, I'll have to abstain for nearly a year. When did you ov this last month? I was cd16.

Sorry - message took a long time to type (had to go up to ds and put him back in bed).

hana - sorry but your brother and SIL sound totally insensitive. People can be so horrid . Some friends of ours recently got pg straight away - she is now about 16 weeks and everything is going well. I really wouldn't want anyone else to have problems but I still feel upset by this - it's just so unfair.

ChaCha, it sounds a bit early for implantation to me - that's supposed to be 7-10 days after fertilisation. Could it be a side effect of the tamoxifen? Sorry I can't be more help.

Thanks for all the messages girls.

Hello bunny, well yes, synchronised disappointment at least! I know what you mean about the relief too, my first pg was a blighted ovum and I spotted on and off until 11 weeks before finally miscarrying. I suggest you join me in having a glass of wine - naughty but nice.

ChaCha, I assume you count the day after you ovulate as 1dpo, and so on. Of course, you may not ov the day your OPK first shows a positive so it could have been CD11 or 12. I suggest you wait until you think your period is late before testing. I know it's hard though.

Mum2Ela - I don't own a bikini so I'll have to look lush in my bra and knickers (non-matching at that). Sorry to let the side down

Oh please help me!!
I woke up this evening (CD16) and went to the bathroom only to find (sorry to be yucky) blood. A little bit, just like i've started AF. I had cramps all day to the point i left work early to sleep.

Is implantation like this or could AF have arrived 11 days early?

ahhhhhh

aww bunny - so sorry to hear that. And hearing about other pregnancies is SOOOOO very very hard, isn't it? My sil was laughing and joking the other day 'Oh I'm so fertile, I only came off the pill in Nov!' and my brother 'I must have good little swimmers' etc etc. I had to endure this with a false smile on my face! I laugh now - what else can I do?!?!

I'm still around to keep you company

And chacha - don't know the answer there - I've never really looked at my cycle in terms of DPO, have never really worked it out. It's so hard not to let it take over but I know what you're feeling. Lots of us do. Chin up, eh?

hana

(and just to let you know the province has declared a state of emergency here!! The snow is still falling, one of the cars is completly buried under the snow and it's still falling. Lovely. Can't wait to go out and play in it tomorrow..... )

sorry, synchronised

Af arrived last night, Jellycat we are def synchrinised! Just think we'll be bding away at different ends of the country at the same time!! I'm relieved really, I had so much spotting I would have written off any pregnancy as already doomed. Back on clomid tonight.

ChaCha, I really hope you are pg but pls dont read too much into early symptoms if you can help it. Try and hold out till 10 days past ov before testing otherwise you may get a false neg. Good luck xx.

Heard yet another friend is pg today and it really p*ssed me off. A creme egg did help a bit but not enough.

How's everyone else?

Sorry to hear Jelly cat

My friend who is pregnant has given me the rest of her Clearblue OPK sticks which she didn't need to use. There are 5 of them so I am hoping that they are lucky as the other 2 in the pack helped her get pregnant! I start using them next Wednesday so fingers crossed!
