@thisisouryrfx18 I'm only CD4 unfortunately, I wish I was already in the TWW although it won't be that long until I am, when is AF due for you?

thisisouryrfx18 · 27/06/2018 21:00

@DaisyMay25 im 5dpo aswell me u and @HidCat will b due af around the same time it has to b one of our turns this time surely?! @MrsV2018 i would go n c another gp for a 2nd opinion our gp said after 18mnths they can refer u for investigations at the fertility clinic x

MrsV2018 · 27/06/2018 19:59

They just said to keep trying. If I get no success by September then I'll go back to the Doctor and see if they can refer me to a fertility clinic.. but I really just want it to happen naturally. I'm giving SMEP a go and drinking grapefruit juice although I've run out so not had some today

DaisyMay25 · 27/06/2018 19:50

@MrsV2018 did they not say what the next steps for you could be?

MrsV2018 · 27/06/2018 19:48

@DaisyMay25 fx for you this month.. hope it's your month. I just wish I knew why it's not happening but I guess we all wish that

DaisyMay25 · 27/06/2018 19:27

@MrsV2018 how frustrating though after that long! At least wit all this sun you'll be getting plenty vitamin d. I'm alright only CD4, I do SMEP every month but decided to start CD6 this month just because I ovulate early.

MrsV2018 · 27/06/2018 18:28

How are you @DaisyMay25?

MrsV2018 · 27/06/2018 18:27

Yep had blood tests done and they said everything was fine apart from my vitamin D so they've given me a 6 week course of vitamin D tablets. But they just said to keep trying. Going to give SMEP a go this month

DaisyMay25 · 27/06/2018 18:22

@MrsV2018 I'm sorry you're not having a good time. Have you been to the doctor about it?

MrsV2018 · 27/06/2018 18:11

AF arrived today so on to another month of trying. 19 months of trying and I'm losing hope now

thisisouryrfx18 · 27/06/2018 09:37

@HidCat yh we do look quite similiar fx thats a gd sign lol x

HidCat · 27/06/2018 07:11

@thisisouryrfx18 You can still see a shift though. If you ignore 13 and 31 you can see there's a slight increase. I had the same so I binned a couple of temps that were high early on and this is my chart now. Weirdly I had the same big dip as you after ov lol

@HidCat OG crew 😹lol i keep thinking that why do i build my hopes everytime! Glutten for punishment i guess..my sisters gettin married at the end of the yr and i keep looking to c how far along id b at that point if i actually got bfp. I keep thinking might need a size up in a dress by then lol not that id care

HidCat · 26/06/2018 16:19

@thisisouryrfx18 brilliant - OG crew timing it together lol. Loving the OCD, think I might have the same problem. Keep trying to work out how many points I can get if I buy a FRER as I have my double points vouchers. (I think it's 80). I've been reading up on test statistics, false positives and CP to try to talk myself out of it. I think I'm overly excited as cycle 3 was the successful one last time. With DS it was cycle 2 so convinced myself this is it. I'm in for such a kick in the face aren't I - bloody optimism!

thisisouryrfx18 · 26/06/2018 14:55

@HidCat 5dpo prob is too early to symptom spot but it sure as hell doesnt stop me doing it at 4dpo😂 ive got a day off work today and i think thats when my brain turns into utter ocd mode. By that i mean obsessed with conceiving disorder! lol

HidCat · 26/06/2018 10:19

@lolacola13 don't worry lol. I'm due Wednesday so we'll hopefully be getting our BFPs together (she says, optimistically). Think I'll probably test Sunday. I found an ic 10miu buried in the cupboard so that should satisfy my need to POAS without getting a FRER and just use the normal ones when if AF is late. 5dpo isn't too early to symptom spot is it? 🙈

SoBoredOfWaiting · 26/06/2018 08:52

@TwittleBee I am so pleased it is all sorted for you! Lots of baby dust to you x

thisisouryrfx18 · 26/06/2018 08:44

lolacola13 · 26/06/2018 08:42

@TwittleBee !!!! It's you! Delighted your on the journey to recovery! Thank goodness your ovaries are fine. Such good news I'm genuinely smiling for u. Yes I'm plodding along still here testing at the weekend I think . Period due Tuesday, so a week today. Fingers crossed! Xoxox

HidCat · 26/06/2018 08:36

@TwittleBee OMG that's crazy! Thank god they found it in the end though. Glad it wasn't something needing a long term fix. Are you TTC again yet or having a breather?

TwittleBee · 26/06/2018 08:29

oh bless you guys lolacola13 and thisisouryrfx18 I'm doing all good. Just to let you know my health stuff got resolved, turned out ovaries are just fine but I still had stuff left over from 1st birth which had got all infected - shocking it took a whole year and going private to get that spotted and fixed!

Sorry to see familiar faces names on here still! Nice to see new people have joined in the nuttiness too! Hope you all have lots of baby dust and stickiness. Star
