Hmmm maybe. I just spoke with the nurse and she said there was no point coming in today, if we've missed ov then we've missed it. I just have to wait until tomorrow's appointment. Xx

Trixielilac11 · 20/10/2015 12:24

Do you think you could be coming down with something, would explain the high temp and symptoms.

loopylou1984 · 20/10/2015 11:56

Went from 36.3 to 36.58. I normally get at least 2 days of positive opks...

Trixielilac11 · 20/10/2015 11:28

How much did it go up by? I haven't used OPKs for ages, I have a really short surge so I did miss it a few times when I was using the CBFM but with cheapies I would always see something.

loopylou1984 · 20/10/2015 11:14

I'm ok, still feel crampy, although my boobs aren't as sore. Not even a hint of a positive opk yet though.
The only thing that's worrying me is that my temp went up this morning, but I can't have ovd without a positive opk can I?? Xx

Talking of DTD - I'm really fed up of it! It comes to something when my parents refused to visit and stay over because Mum worked out it was the prime time in my cycle!

Trixielilac11 · 20/10/2015 09:45

Sorry I've been awol, for some reason the thread keeps disappearing off my watch list.
Try not to worry Sammy, I think during a cycle we pay far more attention to our bodies than usual, my boobs were quite sore the other day and I'm no where near ov. Easier said than done but try to relax. How are you feeling today?

Sali, like Lucie said, a private clinic won't turn you away regardless of how long you have been trying. We did our first cycle after trying for 18 months.

Not much to report here, would love a post CP BFP but DH is working crazy hours at the moment so finding time to DTD may be hard.

loopylou1984 · 19/10/2015 18:32

Right now I'd put money on AF arriving tomorrow based on how I'm feeling. I'm so scared this is going to be another false start cycle :(. Xx

loopylou1984 · 19/10/2015 07:15

Head boons????
That was meant to say sore boobs! Lol. Xx

loopylou1984 · 19/10/2015 06:53

Ok so temp still low this morning! Phew!
So my next worry is that I'm going to have some kind of weird second bleed, head boons, cramps and the headache I woke up with all suggest af is on her way...

Maybe not but I really don't think you would have ov'd that early, you never have before so I'm sure it's going to be fine.

loopylou1984 · 18/10/2015 22:07

Yes, I did one and it was negative. But say I ovd yesterday would the opk still be positive today? Xx

Have you done any opks today Sammy?

loopylou1984 · 18/10/2015 21:12

Sali - the private clinic won't send you away. The nhs are restricted, but the private clinics aren't.

I'm panicking slightly as my boobs are sore and I'm crampy and it's only cd8, I'm terrified I ovulated already for some bizarre reason. Xx

A private clinic won't turn you away sali if you are ready to get started now. Good luck, let us know how it goes.

Great news Sammy and Lucie! Fingers crossed for you both.

We're having another appointment with the private clinic on Saturday but am worried that they'll send us away and tell us to keep trying. So many people keep telling me that 14 months isn't long. :-(

Pikz · 16/10/2015 14:32

Glad it went well Sammy!

Definitely lucky Sammy! Glad it went well.

TheTravellingLemon · 15/10/2015 21:51

Lucky omen Sammy Smile

loopylou1984 · 15/10/2015 21:43

Hi everyone

The scan was fine. I had a follicle on one ovary somehow, but she said it didn't matter as lining was ok. Have to start opks from the 20th, scan on 21st and depending on ov transfer will be around the end of the month! Might fall on my birthday, and I can't decide if that's a lucky omen or just bad luck! Lol. Xx

I'm in the waiting room now, scan is at 1.
Yes I know, it just doesn't seem possible that things will go smoothly based on past experience! Lol.
Will update after. Xx

Trixielilac11 · 15/10/2015 12:04

What time is your scan Sammy? Remember it was the meds to blame for you being ill last time so hopefully without the meds everything will be ok.

Glad you celebrated last night Lucie Smile

Hi Pikz!

Thanks pikz and Sammy, we are just enjoying a bottle of wine to celebrate! I know one blast is not a lot for some but it means the world to me to get something out if this cycle and I feel the pressure is off slightly now we have 3 frozen.

Good luck with the scan tomorrow Sammy. I hope it's all ok for you this time and you are on your way to getting that bfp.
