Thought the old one was getting a bit full so I'd start a new one. I'll attempt tagging as many as I can

@Whatnext11 - so sorry you’ve not had great results; they can do a lot with that though, to trigger ovulation.
I’d think with results like that, the doc would want to retest to be sure, especially as your cycles vary?

@MrsH497 - congratulations!! Fantastic news 😀 so, so happy for you! X

MrsH497 · 11/09/2019 16:26

I caved and I'm sobbing. Did the cheap one saw that was a good line so though sod it and did the digital x

Hi everyone, I came off the pages for a couple of days as felt I was becoming obsessed! I didn't last long away!
I had a blood test last week - first one I have had, and results were back today - I was told all normal except. progesterone, so no ovulation. Gutted and confused. Currently in 2WW and my word I had not appreciated how tough this was! On CD26, DPO6 according to fertility friend.
At the time I wondered if the GP had booked the blood test for the right day - my last 2 cycles were 28 days, one before that was 33. Previous to that, not a clue!
Fertility Friend reckons AF is due 17th with a prediction of a 31 day cycle, and blood test was taken on CD20. So more than 7 days before AF due.
The test says serum progesterone 2nmol/L - abnormal.
Any ideas?

MrsH497 · 11/09/2019 09:25

@Anny27 not really but tired (works busy though), boobs a tiny bit sore and still got a horrid taste in my mouth but nothing else I could say for sure.

@kiza @absa I am in tww...3dpo so a while off from testing but doesnt stop the wondering and symptom spotting haha!

@MrsH497 do you have any symptoms?

@redmarchingband i use femometer and clue apps :)

Kiza · 11/09/2019 08:21

@MrsH497 holding onto lots of hope for you for the weekend!
I'm halfway through my TWW and trying to keep myself busy and distracted 😁

Absa · 11/09/2019 07:18

Morning @MrsH497 and all. I'm in the dreaded 2WW still, yesterday and today have felt bloated and stomachache, I wouldn't say cramps but more of just general aches across my whole belly. Could be AF preparing... who knows?! 😂

After this cycle we are away for my next probable O peak and I won't be testing with OPKs which is probably a good thing because it has confused me quite a bit. I'm kinda looking forward to a month of just seeing what happens without knowing anything!

MrsH497 · 11/09/2019 07:04

Thanks ladies. Seen a thread on here this morning about FRER giving bad water lines so don't want to get my little hopes up too much! Will try again at the weekend and hopefully it's darker by then.

How is everyone today? X

@MrsH497 I can see it! Fingers crossed for you!! X

ELW85 · 10/09/2019 19:48

@ValidUser - so sorry to hear last month was another chemical. It’s great that you’ve got a plan in place to get on the progesterone. Good luck for this month.

@MrsH497 - I definitely see it!! Keeping everything crossed for you!

MrsH497 · 10/09/2019 19:43

@Lottiepink thank you! It's definitely there so I've ordered a couple more frer to hopefully get a darker line. Hubby can see it which is always a good sign x

Redmarchingband · 10/09/2019 19:39

Lottiepink · 10/09/2019 19:39

MrsH497 · 10/09/2019 19:30

MrsH497 · 10/09/2019 17:55

Thank you @Anny27 it isn't coming up on pictures very well. I'll re test Thursday or Friday I think can't get hopes up just yet x

MrsH497 · 10/09/2019 16:44

Hello ladies,

How are we all doing? Hello to any new ladies this thread is full of so many strong and amazing ladies so you are in the right place!

@flossy12 that digi must be great to see, wishing you a very happy and healthy 9 months ❤️

@MrsH497 that must be really frustrating, are you going to hold off to test again! I’m hoping so too but realistically think we will be in for a wait! First day back from the hols wasn’t too bad but feeling really sick today so I’m struggling.

@Larrydavid sorry to hear AF arrived, What cycle are you on at the mo? Hope the tests bring some answers

@ValidUser so sorry to hear it was another chemical, sending lots of love your way I know how hard it is!

@Lemonysherbet I know exactly what you mean, our first MC definitely brought us closer and cemented the fact that we know how much we want to have a baby! That’s great to hear that you are back on TTC as I know it can be tough post MC great to hear you are feeling so strong ❤️

nobodyloveslava · 09/09/2019 22:18

Post obviously not lost!

nobodyloveslava · 09/09/2019 22:18

Thank you all so much! I don't lost very often but following this thread and others has kept me sane over the last few months.
ValidUser I can totally identify with getting a bit bored of it sometimes!

ValidUser · 09/09/2019 21:54

Thanks @flossy12 and @Anny27!

@MrsH497 I'm actually just a bit bored of TTC at this point! 😂

@nobodyloveslava that's brilliant!

Lemonysherbet · 09/09/2019 21:20

@MrsH497 I get that, we were also reassured by the fact it could actually happen as it was always a fear.

Everything seems to be ok post MC. My cycle bounced back to normal so quickly it's like it didn't even happen. Sadly it did, on my DH birthday, poor poor thing! I feel mentally strong though, which is an achievement for an anxious Annie!
