@ValidUser good luck today at the dr! What CD are you now? When do you get your trigger shot?

ValidUser · 24/05/2019 09:20

Thinking of you @starkid! It'll be good to have some answers. Getting my stuck together insides looked at was a great move here!

Hi sorry I haven't been around, not been in a positive mindset. Didn't get an email notification with my tag for some reason! But thanks for the new thread @LokiCat :)

Been away for a few days so not been on to see if there's been any bfp's in the last week?

Anyway:
Ttc#1
Cycle 10, but since may 2018
Day 6
Pelvic scan booked in 👍 possible issues due to past surgeries

Think that's it... AF almost over finally. Still probably writing on here for a bit until feeling more positive but hope to see bfp's from everyone :)

Welcome to the TTC madness @Alltheusersnamesaregone!

@Pinksunset1 Welcome back, I hope you are recovering well and it’s great to hear DH has been so supportive too ♥️

Good luck this morning @Mrskcam I hope AF stays well away!

Hi I was missed off last two threads I’m currently recovering from my laparoscopic surgery where they found stage two endometriosis and burnt it away. I have had this ongoing issue and pain since November so glad I have a diagnosis. Husband had been so good through it all.

Age- 28
Cycle- 6
Cycle day- no idea as still recovering

Mrskcam · 23/05/2019 22:24

Also welcome @Alltheusersnamesaregone as you've probably seen by now, you could say pretty much anything on this thread and no one would think you're mad 😂 so supportive 💖

Mrskcam · 23/05/2019 22:22

Still feeling a complete lack of pms, although I have noticed my skin seems to have become suddenly oily (usually very dry). Hoping af isn't here when I wake up, always like clockwork, comes bang on time the morning it's due

Lola871 · 23/05/2019 22:17

Welcome @alltheusernamesaregone.

AF due any time between tomorrow and next Friday, I thought I ov'd early-ish again due to EWCM, but then I seemed to have more EWCM later so who knows what to expect 🤷

MrsH497 · 23/05/2019 19:08

@Alltheusersnamesaregone welcome to the supportive and lovely group you could have wished for. These ladies have been amazing to me x

orangeloo · 23/05/2019 19:04

@Alltheusersnamesaregone welcome and you've come to the right place!
How old are you? How long have you been trying and whereabouts in this cycle are you? X

Hi everyone, just signed up to mumsnet as I need to talk to others going through this trying to conceive stuff!

ELW85 · 23/05/2019 18:02

@Purplefig - good luck with the trip and OPKs; it was nice to have you back even for a little while!

@MrsEG - what lovely friends, and your husky sounds adorable!! I’d love a dog, but DH says it’ll be a retirement present...just need to retire early now!
You are definitely facing a tough decision, but as a total cliché; maybe just take it a day/week/cycle at a time? :)

@ValidUser - thank you and good luck for tomorrow! You’ll have to keep us updated!

@cupcakesandglitter - I hope DH doesn’t have to wait long for the second appointment?

@MrsH497 - what a lovely tribute! They’ve done a great job :) really pleased you’re feeling a bit better too.

Plattsy88 · 23/05/2019 17:35

@MrsH497 love your tattoo! I'd love to have a tattoo like that if I wasn't such a wimp with needles! X

MrsEG · 23/05/2019 16:53

@ValidUser Wishing you all the luck I possibly can!

ValidUser · 23/05/2019 16:39

@MrsH497 I love your tattoo, that's inspired me - lovely and so nice to have something meaningful. Love the idea of the plants too - I guess the fact that the tattoo artist knew what it was just shows that more people go through it than we know x

@purplefig honestly 🙄 GP thought it was no big deal - so irritating!!!

MrsH497 · 23/05/2019 16:15

Oh @MrsEG what darling friends you have! Enjoy every second of your mini break. Xx

MrsEG · 23/05/2019 16:13

@purplefig Have a great trip!

purplefig · 23/05/2019 16:09

@MrsEG one silver lining of tough times is you do discover who really cares, and it can be pretty heartwarming. That sounds like the perfect getaway ❤️ enjoy. Right. I really am signing off now!!

MrsEG · 23/05/2019 15:33

@purplefig Yep, I agree - I think I’ve managed to convince myself just by writing this! Plus no baby wants a birthday in Feb, far too cold Wink I know, I was in pieces when the card arrived, it was such a lovely surprise. We go at the end of June, staying in a little hobbit hole and we can even take the dog :)

purplefig · 23/05/2019 15:24

@MrsH497 what a lovely tribute ❤️

@MrsEG oh my goodness - what special friends!!! That's so lovely. How loved you both are! What about taking a month to enjoy that and then seeing how you feel? You might have a bit more perspective and you never know, your referral appointment might not take the full 10 weeks. It's a really tricky one. Ultimately whatever you decide is going to be right for you two.

MrsEG · 23/05/2019 15:19

@purplefig Yep I really do agree. Part of me loves the idea of at least one month off too to just not think about it for a few weeks. All of our friends have clubbed together and treated us to a few nights away in the Lake District too (which had me balling when the card arrived last night) so we could really just fully switch off from it for a bit. But I just can’t shake the feeling of how long it’s been since we started trying, am I wasting a perfectly good egg, etc! Ugh. The ‘joys’ of it all!

@MrsH497 That’s lovely xxx
