[... Insert jazzier title here!]

The bus is still running, we're sick of bastard bfns, and crossing fingers (and some) for Feb 2019 babies. Come join!

I'm 35 yo
DD is 3yo
Cycle 25 (urgh!!)
Af/bfp due 18th June

After a few months charting and opk-ing, I've decided to chuck it all out and try and dtd every other day. Eek. Only two more cycles until we start ivf in August so crossing fingers we can get a natural bfp before then. Here's hoping!

@lithops....so what was it, did we manage a BFP or a stinking period ?

CD32 still nothing :(

LethargicButAwesome · 08/09/2018 00:15

@lethargic ohhhhh pants. So sorry. When's af due?

@mammy i also have completely unexplained secondary infertility. Our test results are A star. It's annoying in a way as nothing to fix. But means it can and should happen. Sorry you're disappointed though lovely xx

BFN FOR me

LethargicButAwesome · 06/09/2018 11:37

@mammy don't be deflated, if anything it's probably a good thing at least it's not a 'no' or there is not something preventing you from conceiving. I know it can be annoying as atleast of it was a deficient you could get it fixed, have you had iron and thyroid checked, it was thyroid for me last time.

I have two days to check, dunno why but am excited his month - I feel the pressure is on tho, husband said to me the other day 'oh four days two check' I usually like to kee it discrete and don't share, but with him tracking with me it becomes way too real.

Mammyofasuperbaby · 05/09/2018 16:12

Well another dead end. My bloods were all perfect and they can't see a reason as to why I'm not conceiving. Lh and FSH are within normal ranges s I don't understand why I'm not ovulating or having regular periods. Plus if I want more tests I have to see another person who only works Mondays and there are no appointments for months. I feel defeated

LethargicButAwesome · 05/09/2018 14:59

@catren try and relax it's all out of your hands now, there is a process in place and use these couple of months to wind down- it's been a long ttc journey but you have a plan ahead of you :)

Pudding01 · 05/09/2018 06:22

I'm so confused ladies. How can I have ovulated before my peak opk? 🙈 Such a weird chart! Please help me understand it..

Ohh having to wait until next cycle when you're ready to go is tough. But great that they got 10 eggs ready to go for you! Good luck 🙂

My update is that we ended up with 10 frozen blastocysts ready for transfer, but might have to wait for next cycle to transfer one as the genetic testing results might not be back in time. Crap! Im sooooo impatient!

Hey @pudding01 it looks like you ovulated on cd14, the big dip. It won't come up with crosshairs though until 3 temp increases so might appear tomorrow? Looks like you timed your dtd perfectly! Fx it's your month!

OP posts:
LethargicButAwesome · 04/09/2018 18:17

@pufdinn I admire your resilience and commitment to temping I just don't remember to do it :/ so cannot shed any light....

Lit hops is this a longer than usual cycle? Do you know when you ovulated ?

Pudding01 · 04/09/2018 09:44

Congratulations on the BFPs 😁

Has anyone ever had this? - I had my peak opk yesterday, but my temp had already started rising 🤷🏼‍♀️ I take my tests first thing, so worried my actual ovulation happened super quick after a long fertile window and we BD too late! Or it's an anovulatory cycle 😕

Congratulations @Pinky333777

Sorry for the negative @Lithops but you never really know until AF shows up Thanks

CatRen27 · 04/09/2018 09:13

Ah crap lithops, no one likes seeing bfns! But you could have ovulated really late do so knows how many dpo you are at cd36!

OP posts:
Lithops · 04/09/2018 07:29

Do you think not, @LethargicButAwesome ? Surely a test would be positive by CD36? I do wish AF would turn up now so I could ditch the vain hope 😒

LethargicButAwesome · 03/09/2018 23:05

@lithops not over till it's over! This seems like the longest week EVER

Lithops · 03/09/2018 21:34

Congratulations, Pinky!
Nothing to see here. No AF and I'm on CD37. I cracked yesterday and took a test - negative Sad

LethargicButAwesome · 03/09/2018 16:15

pinky, congratulations x awesome news and at 15 months they will grow up together, after age three you won't even notice the gap :)

Lithops any luck yet?

Pinky333777 · 03/09/2018 14:04

So happy to say we got our BFP today!!
My lovely little Ernie (5 months old) is going to be a big brother!
Not quite the very small gap we were aiming for, but small enough SmileSmileSmile

sodababy2 · 02/09/2018 14:52

So exciting for you @CatRen27!

Fingers crossed @Lithops and @LethargicButAwesome

Lithops · 01/09/2018 11:13

Hi everyone, I haven't been on this thread for ages. So nice to drop in and see some good news for some of us. Congratulations to those with BFPs and good luck with the IVF, CatRen - how exciting! I'm on day 35 with no sign of AF and desperately trying not to test. This is a long cycle for me, but not absurdly long and I refuse to get my hopes up...

mayago · 31/08/2018 23:51

@Mammyofasuperbaby a supportive GP makes such a difference

@LethargicButAwesome September is a good month!

@CatRen27 that's really fast! Fingers and toes firmly crossed for you

Digi and FRER progression. The darker line was this morning, and digital was in the afternoon 👍

Oh no @mammy that's really rubbish, can't believe your gp is such a misogynist! Although i saw a stand in gp once when mine was on holiday, old chap. I'd said in passing that my 18 months ttc when i had a polyp that was preventing conception was a 'waste of time', to which he replied "not a total waste of time, wink".. it was so creepy. Anyway hope the b12 supplements help and you get more info on the stuff you thought they were testing for!

@mayago a digital! Come on then let's see it! Sooo official now 😁🎉

@lethargic i have my fingers and toes crossed that September is your month!!

My update is that af arrived super early (day 16!) as predicted after my egg collection on Monday. So I'll have my embryo transfer in less than 2 weeks! Sooo exciting.

OP posts:
LethargicButAwesome · 31/08/2018 21:21

I know it's stupid but I have a good feeling about September I dunno why no symptoms or anything but since starting 6 months ago I've always said I think September will be the month!
