Hi everyone hope you are ok, I've had a reassurance scan two weeks ago which showed a gestational sac and yolk sac so they brought me back two weeks later which was last Friday they could see the baby which measured at 2.9mm and they said it should be 14mm going by my last period which I'm certain was 23rd January, got peak on 3rd Feb and positive test on 19th Feb, my husband spoke to his friends sister who's a high up doctor in Leeds and she said it's more likely I'm 6 weeks and those measurements match up. Had a horrible experience with the nurse who did my scan and for the past few days has made me feel quite down and scared, rescan next wed I'm praying to God the baby has grown and caught up. I'm so scared girls. A lovely midwife got in touch with me as she'd seen a question id asked on what's called maternity assist and I told her about my experience and she took it to the shift leader at the epau and texted me to say I'll be seen by a different nurse next wed.

@agteacht yes I'm living in Ireland :)

@HeartvsHead thanks for asking - no more bfps so I'm taking the positive opks as opks and going from that so I'm now 3-4 dpo. I honestly don't know what happened with that test but maybe a dud?! Because no af has turned up either.
Feel so stupid that I got my hopes up but I'm feeling positive again now.

HeartvsHead · 26/03/2019 20:09

@Kinsella82 any update or still playing the waiting game?

How's everyone else doing?

Yep @agteacht two bfp and one bfn. All on IC. My head is wrecked. But I got really positive opks yesterday and today so I'm either pregnant and the opks picking that up or I'm Ov?! And the bfp?! God only knows!!!! I'm gone totally baffled.

Ps are you Irish with a user name like that??

JadeSB · 23/03/2019 16:01

@agteacht ooo interesting! Well thanks for the info! 👌🏼

Well I have been taking a few things @JadeSB but problem is I can't say for sure what's helped.
I am taking medication for high prolactin but this month I also took soy inflavones which apparently are like Clomid and help you to ovulate. I don't know which one did it but I ovulated on day 16 when the last few cycles it has been CD25, CD30 and CD23. I think it was the soy. I took it day 2-5.

Angus castus and B6 are meant to help lengthen your luteal phase specifically. My issue was the pre-ovulation phase, whatever that's called.

I'm not an expert on all this so I don't want to advise anyone! But assuming that AF (or a BFP!) come 14 days after ovulation then my cycle this month will be 30 days rather than up to 44-46, which would be amazing. I'll continue to take the soy until I get to a BFP or give up because 46 day cycles means only 8 chances a yeast.

@agteacht i didn't realise you could take anything to length cycles 🤔 mine are 30-31 days so already quite long

agteacht · 23/03/2019 14:25

Oh I see @JadeSB
Have you tried any supplements to help lengthen? I have read about Angus Castus and B6. Mixed reviews sometimes but maybe worth looking up...

OP posts:
JadeSB · 23/03/2019 13:11

@agteacht apparently so. I doubt it'll be late, I usually ovulate (just the once) late in my cycles and generally only have 9 days until AF I think that's probably why I'm struggling to get a bfp because my bodies not giving the egg enough time to implant 🤔🤷🏼‍♀️

Oh no @Kinsella82 that's so confusing!! So two BFPs and one BFN? Was it a FRER?

@JadeSB how strange! So it can happen twice?!
Hmm maybe your AF will be late so as 9 days isn't very long..

I am now 4dpo...

OP posts:
JadeSB · 23/03/2019 11:28

@agteacht well apparently I've just peaked again so ovulation due in next 24 hours, so who knows what's going on, only 9days until AF though, so hopefully enough time to work it's magic 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sorry BFN I meant for this morning !

Kinsella82 · 23/03/2019 07:37

Update: after yesterday's bfp I spent all day thinking about it and couldn't wait so held my urine yesterday for over four hours and POAS again and it was a line again but this was a bit faded which was fine as it was not fmu but this mornings was a bfp :( which was fmu.

Kinsella82 · 22/03/2019 23:01

Had a proper af starting 5/3. Tomorrow morning can't come soon enough

Did you have a proper AF or just spotting two weeks ago?

OP posts:
Kinsella82 · 22/03/2019 22:25

@agteacht this is why I'm so confused!!! I'm getting positives on IC opks And pg now! But if I go by the Apps I should only be ov around now but when I look back at my notes I had pain and ewcm on day 8/9 and the same the last two months plus spotting at the same time?! So am I just a person who ovulated earlier? So hard to know. Gonna rest again in the morning

agteacht · 22/03/2019 21:48

@Kinsella82 what??
This is like @HeartvsHead all over again!!

When was your last AF and do the dates line up?

OP posts:
JadeSB · 22/03/2019 10:59

@Kinsella82 when AF due?

Kinsella82 · 22/03/2019 10:58

Thanks @JadeSB yes I'm going to hold off til tomorrow to do another one or a more expensive one! Not sure I can wait that long but I'll try my best!

JadeSB · 22/03/2019 10:47

@Kinsella82 looking at those id say it's a bfp, can you do another pg test to be sure?

Kinsella82 · 22/03/2019 07:25

Help!
I don't know what to think!
I decided to to a Pg test this morning along side the opk and it looks like there's a line on the pg test?!
As far as I'm aware I haven't O yet unless I did super early at CD8 or 9 as I wasn't doing opks then and had lots of EWCM?!
Is this a line? Kind of freaked!

Hi @JadeSB
I read somewhere before that your body can sometimes try to ovulate but fail so tries again. I don't know how true that is... hopefully someone else will know more... but that might be whats happening with you...

OP posts:
JadeSB · 21/03/2019 07:34

Hey guys! Has anyone had this before! I "thought" I ovulated last week, as that's what CB opk sticks indicated but this morning I took another one as I have loads of clear discharge and I a flashing smiley(high fertility)... never had this before so I'm confused/annoyed lol (light purple-high fertility & dark purple-peak fertility). You can't ovulate twice in a month 😩
