So we are rolling on to thread #five –
We are not giving up, our PMA is still alive.

Put pure and simply,
We want to have babies,
God, please help everyone of these lovely ladies.

We support each other,
We are funny and kind,
And we will not be giving up,
Until we see that thick BFP line.

Hi blondie think we posted at the same but yes had the hycosy on cycle day 11 of this cycle. It was whilst I went for that I got told my fsh levels were too high to qualify for IVF and was told to get my AMH tested. But I hadn't booked the AMH test in yet.
I did pin a tonne of hope on the hycosy which is why I tried to do everything else I possibly could do to help it along. so that's great news you've got yours booked in, I did lots of googling and there are loads of success stories so I've got everything crossed for you

Blondienut · 11/05/2017 17:56

Congrats rose , delighted for you and interested to hear did you have hycosy last month as I've heard you an be super fertile after them!

I'm moving back towards my PMA despite my shite AMH result. I needed the last week to let it sink in and I'm trying to look st only positive stories.

So my positives

1)I'm still having regular periods
2)my internal uss looked normal for my age
3)i seem to be ovulating regularly
4)hycosy booked for 31st may
5)dh having sperm analysis tomorrow

So things moving forward and I'm praying that we will have some options !

Roseandbee · 11/05/2017 17:54

Thanks ladies:)

Ive been off birth control since June 2014, we started with the see what happens approach, and to be honest I was in no hurry back then so no opks or even paying attention to my cycles. Im on Cycle 6 of using opks and timings.

well Moo this cycle it'd prob be quicker to tell you what i didnt do
rasberry leaf tea - but only a few cups as got it too late
Fertility bracelet and hypnoses - past two months
Evening primrose up to OV - past two months
Vitamins - folic, zinc, iron B and omega 3
conceive plus for the first time this month
pineapple core after OV for the first time
Have kept my feet in warm socks even at night and my tummy covered
No caffene, and no alchol from cycle day 11
and the big one was the hycosy where I saw little lefty. Hycosys are supposed to increase fertility for 3 cycles after.
DTD cycle day 11, 13, 14, 15 (positive opk cycle day 13) and stayed put with pillow under bum for at least 20 minutes after

Phase thats great news about your scan!, so stressful but at least you got a reward after it

Just quickly checking in -

Itsjustaphase84 · 11/05/2017 17:18

And Sophsta as well..
Can't remember if I congratulated you.

Currently 7+4 here. I had to have an early scan this week due to spotting and loss of symptoms and there it was. Heartbeat flickering away....and then symptoms ce back next day. There is some blood behind the sac which they reckon baby disturbed which caused the brown blood. Not got my booking in appt until 22/05-9 weeks.

Lovely see new joiners. Welcome xx

Roseandbee · 11/05/2017 11:03

Thanks to everyone who has sent positive wishes my way! I tested this morning as I finally got an urge to. Plus I'm off today and working Friday, so I thought it'd suck a bit to find out n then get straight to work. Anyway BFP! I cried, then DH cried and now I'm just in surreal mode

Crossing everything for you Amanda so we can be BFP buddies and sending out baby dust all round!!! #sunshineandbfpsallround #somebodypinchme

PMA Express to BFP Thread #5
AmandaP86x · 10/05/2017 23:09

Thanks @hippy @archies❤️❤️❤️

@rose well Ovia says my AF is due Saturday. But I'll be in Spain. So I'm home Monday afternoon obv if she's not arrived by then I'll test. My longest cycle has been 35 days however but they have gradually came down after last month was a bog standard 28 day cycle. So tomorrow I am CD31. I do feel slightly crampy though and I was so ill that cycle there I didn't DTD anywhere near as much as I would want in FW. Feel like I'm just being teased the now and it will come in full swing by the weekend. The tampax is packed anyway lol x

ArchiesMamaBird · 10/05/2017 22:33

Rose and Amanda I have everything crossed for you both, it's sounding very positive 😊

Hippy I have no idea where my PMA has come from today, I'd have thought that after 10 cycles I'd be ready to throw in the towel, but I've been super positive today! Maybe it's the sunshine, or maybe this is my coping mechanism, but feeling good so far this cycle. Sending you all my positive vibes in the hope that your PMA comes back super quickly 😘

Roseandbee · 10/05/2017 22:01

Thanks hippy. I think this is my slowest feeling 2ww so far. I wanted to return something yesterday and had a panic I'd gone over the 28 day period, looked at the receipt and I still had plenty of time because I bought it during the 2ww.

Amanda that is impressive, my DH only knew my period day was Friday cos he asked and that's what prompted him to be supervised it had come round so soon:-/ I'm tempted to go old school and try and miss my period. I am very regular, I'd know by about midday Friday, although then I wudn't have any fmu, so maybe Friday morning. What day will you test?

sarahboro1 · 10/05/2017 20:57

No problem. We're in this together now remember!! #bellasgirlgang #vivaforever

Hippychic79 · 10/05/2017 20:54
