So after a month we finally have the SA back.

Normal forms come in at 2 when the minimum is usually 4. Think it refers to morphology. He has to do another sample in 3 months 😩 tried researching but not much comes up for morphology on its own. Don't know if it's bad or not. Doctors just gave us a complicated piece of paper. Anyone know anything on this?

Welcome @DayDreamer1707 sorry to hear about your MC but great news your all back on track now. Will have everything crossed for you xx

@ValidUser glad the result is better!!

FivexFive · 15/11/2018 18:14

@Delilah7, it's va really positive sign the dr said all looked normal :) Sorry to repeat, but try to relax and think positive if you can. We're all here for you xx

@cupcakesandglitter, omg I would be fuming if dh said 'nice' re new frillies!! Maybe 'niiiiice' would be acceptable, but not a one syllable 'nice' !! How would they like it if we shrugged and said 'nice' when they got their dicks out?! Sorry, that was a bit uncouth, got carried away :)

Ok ladies, I'm looking for opinions again, sorry!! So I'm due af on 23rd Nov according fertility friend ap. That is the day I go on holiday with ladies from work. Dh thinks I should test the day before (if af hasn't come) so we know... I'm not sure. I'm thinking I should just leave it, see if af arrives and test when I'm back home if not? I don't drink and the holiday will be super chill, so not like I need to know for safety reasons. What do you gals think?? Xx

FlapJackered · 15/11/2018 18:14

@KatBeCool it was darker (but def not positive) on cd15 but then went invisible and now just light. 😩
I am hoping your powers of premonition are correct! If I haven't ov'd by Monday I might do a fertility dance 💃 I have already bought crystals - what have I become!! 🙈😂

@cupcakesandglitter thanks lovely, sorry to hear your in the same boat. You can join me on my ovulation dance on Monday if we are both still waiting 💃💃. My cm is all over the place too, it was ewcm and now is back to creamy 🤷🏼‍♀️
😂 'that's nice'! I hope you told him what for! I had that the other day. Came prancing out in my best under garments ...he looks up from his phone says 'you look fit' then proceeds to go back to playing on his phone 😤

@ValidUser hurrah for the FSH! 👏🏻

mrsof20118 · 15/11/2018 17:15

@Delilah7 try to take it easy now. It's all still so promising and it's still so early for them to be accurate with the time. Plus even though you know you ovulated you have no idea when you im implanted xx

ValidUser · 15/11/2018 16:50

FSH down to 8.1. This is better!

DayDreamer1707 · 15/11/2018 16:38

Hi Ladies, I was wondering if I could join your thread as you all seem very positive.
I had a MMC on the 15th of October and just got AF yesterday and would love the support of you all for my first month actually trying to give it ago again. This will be our first time trying to actually full on TTC as we now know this is what we want for sure as last time we just kinda went with the flow....xxx

BabySquid · 15/11/2018 16:07

@cupcakesandglitter don't stress so much about your cm. I had the littlest bit yesterday about noonish, then nothing after that, even felt a bit dry prior to DTD.

stormtrooperjulian · 15/11/2018 16:03

@cupcakesandglitter maybe the ewcm was from yesterday and just worked it’s way out overnight

cupcakesandglitter · 15/11/2018 15:42

Okay so now I'm confused, I've just checked and it's white and sticky? What's going on 😩

cupcakesandglitter · 15/11/2018 15:15

Omg @stormtrooperjulian just seen the sarcastic comment - same from my DH 😩😩 as @FlapJackered Would day, i bought (and wore) some new frillies the other day, and I got "that's nice"...... NICE?! FUCKING NICE?! 😡 x

cupcakesandglitter · 15/11/2018 15:14

I'm with you @FlapJackered I'm CD20 and nothing remotely close to a positive 😩 hang in there ❤️

@sunshine1987 oh that's useful to know!! Hopefully it does it for me too! I've not had anything this morning but I'm so intrigued I think I'm just gonna have to use my fingers and check because DH isn't home for a while xx

@KatBeCool honestly you'd be so surprised 😂😂😂

Thanks @stormtrooperjulian - I'm off to go check again haha! Xx

stormtrooperjulian · 15/11/2018 15:08

@cupcakesandglitter that looks like ewcm to me 😊

@SullyWifey I’ve found that I get a very enthusiastic response from my dh when I get naked and lie on the bed waiting for him to come find me

KatBeCool · 15/11/2018 15:08

@cupcakesandglitter definitely ewcm. The orgasm fluids don't stay in as it's pretty much water, it comes out right away. And arousal fluids are slippery. I can only imagine the imagery that came up during your search 😂😂

@Delilah7 if there was a concern, the Dr would've told you. It's possible it implanted later so it'll be smaller now. It's still there, don't forget that. Hugs.

@FlapJackered it'll happen, keep testing. Did it start getting darker? Since it's close, dtd anyway, at least every 2-3 days. Let me get my crystal ball... You'll ovulate on the 18th 🤔. At least I hope you do!

Delilah7 · 15/11/2018 15:08

Thanks ladies. Was just hard to get my head round x x now for bloods tomorrow!!

Bettyhop · 15/11/2018 15:06

@Delilah7 I know it's easier said than done but think positively. It is completely normal at that gestation not to see an embryo. I was scanned when i thought i was 5 weeks and they found an empty sac, 2 weeks later there was little one heart beating away. I'm now 13+1 and that anxiety never fully lifts when you've had a mc previously but things do get easier every day. Chin up🌻❤ xxx

sunshine1987 · 15/11/2018 15:01

@cupcakesandglitter pregnacare made me suddenly have LOTS of EWCM x

FlapJackered · 15/11/2018 14:57

@Delilah7 I am sorry it didn't give you the answers you were hoping for lovely, but it is a great sign that she said things were good, I am sure if she thought there were any problems she would have said, and you can take that as a really positive sign!

@KatBeCool @cupcakesandglitter it's so difficult isn't it. I just wish I ovulated on the same day each month or at least within 4 days, it would make it so much easier. As it is cd17 and no sign of a positive opk. Such a long slog!

cupcakesandglitter · 15/11/2018 14:50

@Delilah7 I get that sweet but I agree with @sunshine1987, a week is okay honestly - just stay positive until then and try to enjoy it xxxx

@SullyWifey oh brill thankyou, that gives me hope!! I've NEVER seen it like this before (makes me doubt if I've ever had EWCM as it's not ever been this stretchy)... I've started taking Pregnacare, maybe that's what's done it 🤔 same here, it's just wet but nothing really more to it usually! Hopefully I get a positive OPK 😭 I think I'll get my bloods done tomorrow but if I get a positive over the weekend I'll ask my doctor if I could get another one done in 7 days time x

SullyWifey · 15/11/2018 14:37

@Delilah7 great to hear everything so all good so far!! Try not to worry to much, you have to let nature do its thing!! You can't control it I'm afraid. As hard as it is you really need to try and not worry about things you can't control hun. Just use the next scan as a next milestone and don't spend the time between too much!! You need to try and let some positivity in!

This coming from me who after 11 attempts at ttc and absolutely zero sign of pregnancy is trying her best to push out negativity and pull in positivity, so I know how hard that is to do❣️❣️❣️

SullyWifey · 15/11/2018 14:28

@EltzBee yes me too so fingers crossed we work our charm!! Christ I must be so predictable with my come on techniques now, not sure how to mix it up anymore!! Iv kind of plateaued at the stroking technique haha.

@cupcakesandglitter yes so that's what my EWCM looks like so pretty sure that's what it is. Generally my arousal fluid is much more slippery than stretchy.

Also I get EWCM before i get a positive OPK so might get one today or tomorrow xx

Delilah7 · 15/11/2018 14:18

@sunshine1987 I will try xxx

OP posts:
sunshine1987 · 15/11/2018 14:16

@delilah7 see that’s good, you may ovulated later than you thought/implated later and everything is still going to be amazing. Keep positive lovely xx

Delilah7 · 15/11/2018 14:15

@sunshine1987 that's true. She must think I'm more near 5 though as my appointments in two weeks and she said the min I'll be then is 7 weeks she thinks x

OP posts:
sunshine1987 · 15/11/2018 14:11

@delilah7 but she didn’t say that though did she? She said you were measuring 4/5 which is probably as accurate they can get if you are less than 6 weeks currently. The scans aren’t accurate yet which is why they don’t advise before 6 weeks at earliest x

Delilah7 · 15/11/2018 14:06

@sunshine1987 I'm just concerned it's closer to 4 weeks and not 5! X
