@KatBeCool @FlapJackered @Broodyaf @bunhead34 @RosettaR @MotherOfShihTzus @starkid @Lina365

I thought I'd start a new thread as the other one is full. Sorry if I've missed anyone out.

@starkid and @Maisy24 yes I am! Luteal phase always 12 days. My husband (I'm colourblind) says there's a pink line but it's not uniform.

Probably about 8.5 days past ovulation based on trigger. I feel really sick and chicken repulsing me, which happened last time I got a BFP.

starkid · 14/11/2019 11:06

@ValidUser - can't see anything yet xx

Maisy24 · 14/11/2019 10:44

@ValidUser hello! I can't see anything yet but photos aren't the best and it's very early days! Are you going to take one every day now? Have you had any symptoms? How many days is your lutual phase normally? Xxxx

ValidUser · 14/11/2019 07:21

Good morning all! 9dpo today of what I think is cycle 17. Officially ten days past trigger, so it's gone. First month on aspirin.

Squint with me!

@RosettaR that is so annoying!! Insurers always manage to wiggle out all the time. Especially when you've been paying month after month. When it's needed they're like oh it's not covered!😡

So I do need the polyp removed, and my health insurance won't pay, they would only pay if I was having acute symptoms - from what she said I'd basically have to be haemorrhaging, but obviously if I was I'd go to A&E so they wouldn't pay then either. I'm so annoyed! I will see my gp on Monday to get referred on the nhs.

Maisy24 · 13/11/2019 08:18

@KatBeCool thanks I'll cut down on both vitamin E and the gym. We all need a break from this ttc sometimes so don't beat yourself up about not doing everything. It really is tiresome. Xxxx

FlapJackered · 13/11/2019 08:04

@RosettaR that sounds good news about the polyp! Hopefully they won't have to remove it.

FlapJackered · 13/11/2019 08:03

@ValidUser I think I can see a faint line, good luck! 🤞🏻 It has been a while since anyone has had a bfp on this thread so hoping you are the next one!

KatBeCool · 13/11/2019 06:04

@maisy24 I cut down vitamin E in half post ovulation, no more gym, but still yoga, no more myo inositol.
This month I'm completely slacking on everything. I'm exhausted.

ValidUser · 12/11/2019 19:29

If anyone is still on the TTC baby one threads, I started a new one this eve.

@Maisy24 very well stocked. So stocked I shock myself!

Here's hoping the aspirin helped. Two good follicles on the side with a tube.

Maisy24 · 12/11/2019 19:15

@ValidUser I think I see a very very faint line!! But it would be at 8dpo! Are you stocked up on FRERs? I have everything crossed you get your BFP!!! Xxxx

ValidUser · 12/11/2019 19:08

Hoping this thread is happy to squint. Cycle a million, 8.5 days after trigger (gone since yesterday) and I see something.

Please ponder with me. Husband is also intrigued.

@RosettaR I think I remember your name? I'm the mug who used syringes instead of dtd when my back was out.

@Mrs71 I don't have much knowledge so don't read anything into the fact that I said towards ... looking at my results, they've got the normal range as 0.35 to 4.94 on one and 0.27 tp 4.2 on another, so that backs up what you've been told.

@Maisy24 my cycles are around 28-30 days. Last month I had a 31 day cycle which was weird but a lot of spotting from cd 26!!

@RosettaR what would you say is the normal thyroid range? The private endocrinologist was like it's high enough now for pregnancy at 0.48 even though probably creeped up slightly since then 3 weeks ago. She said 50mg every other day of my medication now. My accunpuncture lady also said anything above 0.4 is normal too. I'd be happier closer to 1 though.

Hopefully you won't need an op 🤞and it's a small polyp. x

OP posts:
Maisy24 · 12/11/2019 17:06

@RosettaR glad it's only a small one, fingers crossed you don't need the op! Xxx

starkid · 12/11/2019 17:05

@RosettaR - fingers crossed for you not needing an op/it not being big enough to cause any problems xx

RosettaR · 12/11/2019 16:33

So there is a polyp but it's small so one of the doctors will ring me tomorrow morning to tell me if it needs to be removed or not. Then if it needs removing I will need to see my GP to get referred for the operation. So many steps ...

RosettaR · 12/11/2019 15:21

@Mrs71 I'm glad your thyroid is so close to the normal range, that's great. And that you've found someone who will monitor it more closely. I know exactly what you mean about just not believing it will happen naturally, I feel the same way. I know it is always possible though. You hear of people suddenly getting pregnant after trying for years, even after trying ivf and other things. You never know.

@ValidUser I recognise you from another thread I think.

I'm currently waiting for a scan to confirm if I have a polyp on my uterus that will need removing before ivf. Send me polyp free thoughts people!

Maisy24 · 12/11/2019 10:46

@KatBeCool hi I have ovulated yesterday and been doing the things you said would help with lining. I've forgot what I need to do post ovulation, should I still be going to the gym? Do I need to cut down on vitamin E now?

Xxxx

starkid · 12/11/2019 06:48

@Mrs71 - mine are generally 26-28 days long these days xx

Maisy24 · 12/11/2019 00:10

@Mrs71 mine have been anywhere from 28 days to the longest at 48 days. But the last 4 have been 28-34 so I'm happy about that.

What about you?

Xxx

@FlapJackered thank you! I don't know because I haven't been using my clear blue fertility monitor this month. I did get ewcm sort of around cd 11 so I've been dtd quite a lot over the last week 💪 😂

@Maisy24 & @starkid how long are your cycles?

@starkid it's quite easy to miss that surge thought isn't it! I can't keep up sometimes with the clear blue fertility monitor you just do one stick in the morning which I find easier. Only downside is the sticks can get expensive.

OP posts:
FlapJackered · 11/11/2019 21:25

@Mrs71 good luck!! Have you ovulated yet?

@ValidUser that doesn't sound good, but good they know about it and can treat it. When did you start on the anticoagulants?

Thanks @Maisy24 🤞🏻
There is something very satisfying about the static smiley!!

Only cd9 for me so I am a bit behind the rest of you.
