All ages and age gaps welcome!

I'm 29, have a 16mo DS, TTC since periods came back in July 2014, had a mc in Jan.

Anyone else?

congrats raeside Grin

mrsm that sounds frustrating (and insensitive) of the gp. fx for you this month

Raeside · 17/07/2015 12:13

I guess that's that. Confirmed.

In case you wondered I've had literally no signs apart from maybe 3 days ago an hour of nausea followed by a single episode of dodgy guts. Maybe implantation? Don't know. But boobs same as they ever are in terms of post-Ov soreness, etc.

Good luck to those of you waiting. I am bloody ancient and it took 13 months of concerted effort. If it sticks it'd better be as good a kid as DS1...!

I can't see pics on my phone app Raeside but hoping for a BFP for you!

So I spoke to the doctor who asked if I had any good news for her? Wtf? This is when I'm calling to discuss a blood test that shows I didn't ovulate! What kind of doctor is she??
Anyway she's advised to repeat the bloods to see if it was an isolated cycle of no ovulation so I'm booked in for bloods on cd19 and 22 to see if ovulation can be identified!

*pinkish in background.

Whiter one is the first one all dried up but the line stayed pink, not colourless like an an evap line.

Raeside · 17/07/2015 09:18

Morning all. A few pics here - one of FMU at between 6-8 mins, edited to show details, and another taken bout an hour later, the one still punish in background. Is v faint and took a few mins to appear.

Am I nuts? I can't believe it is real. Off to gym now but will scoot to Boots straight after to buy motherlodr of early testers and folic acid.

Shite. I bet it's a falsey.

CD15 here last shag of the cycle tomorrow I think! Then the joyous wait.
Mugoo I was totally taken aback when the Dr said to me maybe you are just not ovulating totally chilled like that wouldn't be a big deal for someone who has just said they are TTC!
I had my USS today they said you can't see everything with this kind of scan but what we can see seems normal. Am pleased it seems nothing is wrong but a bit bemused as to why my periods are only lasting a day and I'm getting such bad pelvic & back pain with AF and when I ?ovulate.
I hope everyone is ok and plenty more BFP's come our way!

mrsmugoo · 13/07/2015 15:47

I'm just waiting to be told that the odd anovulatory cycle is "normal" and to not worry about it - guaranteed that is what the doctor will say Hmm

Pixie2015 · 13/07/2015 15:36

CD 2 - cycle too many to remember exactly - statistically chances getting higher each month ! (I am trying to believe that) - starting to get paranoid that every random person I speak to is pregnant and just starting to show - AF was 48h hours late for first time this year - even cashier in supermarket rubbed her belly smugly as scanned pregnancy test !

Mrsmugoo everything just seems so unfairly random - good luck everyone

mrsmugoo · 13/07/2015 15:16

by the way - congrats to the BFPs!!

mrsmugoo · 13/07/2015 15:10

Hi all - CD4 here and AF is just about buggering off now thankfully.

I've just phoned the doctor about my bloods from the other day - I've been on holiday and have only just remembered to actually call them. Apparently the bloods show "no evidence of ovulation" in that cycle. I'm quite shocked to hear this :( Although I didn't temp or do OPKs last cycle, I did get EWCM so I would have expected to ovulate by day 21. But at least this might mean that the horrible doctor actually takes notice of me now rather than just brushing me off and telling us to have plenty of sex mid-cycle!

The doctor is calling me on Thursday to discuss.

EmFlat · 04/07/2015 18:39

Literally both today, Woundbobbin :) done loads more packing so felt I deserved it!

Strange tweaky feeling in my left side today, but more at the front than the back... does anyone else get that? Not sure if it's ov or not :s

woundbobbin · 03/07/2015 23:11

Yes marmite & carrot this is what we need some BFP's yay!
Wine and sunshine for the rest of us! Grin

EmFlat · 03/07/2015 21:04

Ps my app didn't show your photo either :s Or I'd've been applauding much sooner!! ;)

EmFlat · 03/07/2015 21:00

Yippeeee! Nice one, Carrot!! claps hands excitedly

So who's gonna be the third? ;)

Pixie2015 · 03/07/2015 18:26

Whoop whoop just like a bus! Two in a day congratulations carrot and marmite so exciting - and the sun even shines this weekend - if I knew how to insert a smily I would x

Raeside · 03/07/2015 17:31

Two! Nice work Carrot!

marmitemofo · 03/07/2015 16:57

Amazing carrot congrats! I didn't get it in your first post as photos don't show up on my app. Woot another BFP Grin

CarrotPuff · 03/07/2015 15:22

Yaaaaaay Marmite!!!! Good news :) very glad for you :*

We dtd after all last night and I noticed a (very) small pink smudge after going to the loo this AM: just the aftermath of an enthusiastic DH, or an IB from a Sunday afternoon quickie while DS napped? Wishful thinking >_

CarrotPuff · 03/07/2015 10:03

Congrats Marmite!

If anyone wants some inspiration...

Woohoo Marmite!

marmitemofo · 03/07/2015 06:45

12dpo and very very faint line today! DP could definitely see it too! so a tentative BFP for me Smile . going to test in a couple of days to make sure its stuck!

EmFlat · 02/07/2015 22:21

Woah, wait, what?? That's not what I wrote!!

Damn.

I basically said 'thanks Marmite' ;) We've been trying to move to a bigger place for almost a year, so I think we're both just shattered from it all.

Bit happier with each other tonight so may still hop on it ;)

Also hope it didn't sound - from my earlier post - that I was 'fed up' of the thread! Apologies, that wasn't what I meant... you lovely ladies are keeping me going :)

Fx'ing for all xxx

EmFlat · 02/07/2015 22:17

Thanks Marmite

Pixie2015 · 02/07/2015 21:14

Raeside - don't think the distance I will cover will make any difference - but I will you that as another excuse to put it off xxx
