TTC first baby thread 24

Welcome @IamHopeful2020 are you TTC #1? X

@Annny27 Thanks for the warm welcome, I've been following your posts; so sorry about your miscarriage.
Hopefully, we'll get our BFPs in this 5th cycle........ Baby dust to all of us.

Morning @Annny27

Congrats on the positive OPK!! Good luck!!

I have had some symptoms actually, my nipples look odd (a bit veiny & possibly darker) & are quite sore/sensitive,feel a bit sick every so often, incredibly tired & am a bit bloated. More than likely just clomid side effects but hopefully not. I'm 6dpo today so probably too early anyway

Morning all :) got my peak opk this morning so will make sure to dtd tonight as well!

@orangeloo yes fw is a lot of pressure! This time it hasn't been so bad because of the bank holiday weekend and the fact we are both wfh so aren't too tired haha!

@Etonmess20 any symptoms for you or are you staying fairly relaxed?

@whatsthecraic91 6 weeks that's so exciting :D :D only 2 more weeks until scan then!! Damn I miss my pregnancy boobs🤣🤣 hope they come back soon for me haha 🙈

@iamhopeful202 welcome:) hopefully cycle number 5 is lucky! This is my 5th cycle after my miscarriage in November but my 11th month overall from when we first started trying

Hello angels! I've been lurking around for sometime. I hope I'm welcome

I feel a bit calm to have people going through the same thing and there's a forum to share our experiences & pour out our minds. I really hope and pray our journey here will be shortened and move past this level soonest, as we we go through this stage together!

I'm 30 years, chemical pregnancy in February, cycle #5.

@Mamainmaking congratulations!!

@Annny27 hey! I'm doing great thank you! I am 6 weeks today 😁 I feel completely normal no sickness or anything yet thankfully! Only thing is my boobs have doubled in size and they are so heavy 😂 I have a private scan booked for 24th, I'll be 8+1 and I can't bloody wait! How are you doing? Fertile week I see 😇 x

@Kiza how are you? How many DPO now after Beltane? Fingers crossed it's done the trick 🤞🏼

I really miss you girls, I am still reading all what's happening 😚x

@Mamainmaking glad to hear you're doing ok x

@lizzie198 yes the pain is easing now

@Etonmess20 thank you for the advice and your lovely support
@Anny27 I don't have any bleeding, the side pain come and goes but your words gave me sigh of relief
@orangeloo thank you dear
😀

@Annny27 no, not just yet only cycle day 6. I actually hate the fertile week haha. So much pressure.
That's good dtd for you, it's so nice when you know you've given that fertile week a really got shot! FX for you.

@orangeloo are you in fertile week now?

I had a very high opk today (nearly peak) so imagine it will peak tomorrow on cd12 and then ovulate on cd13. Managed to did yesterday and today which is good :)

@whatsthecraic91 how are you lovely?

Thanks @Annny27 me too :) x

Any symptoms I now have I think ooh maybe. Then I very quickly remember it means absolutely nothing haha.

@Mamainmaking congratulations! Hope the pain eases. Don't do hot water bottle. X

Congratulations @Mamainmaking :D with your one sided pain, if you get any shoulder pain or any bleeding then call the EPU xxx

@Mamainmaking congratulations and hope the pain eases for you and is nothing serious xx

@Mamainmaking to be honest I don't really know why to suggest, perhaps get a hot water bottle to try & ease it & just see how you go but obviously if you're worried then go to a&e

Hey @Etonmess20 thank you very much! But right now i have constant mild pain in right side around ovary..hope this is no ectopic pregnancy..I am really worried

@Mamainmaking OH MY GOSH!!!! Congratulations!! Xx

Hey lovelies,
I got my bfp this morning!!!!!!
Baby dust to you all🤗

@Mamainmaking always got to be positive! Fingers crossed for the next couple of days for you x

@Etonmess20 the health system is super nice but to get that 1st appointment of any doctor there is always a waiting period of 1 or 2 months, until n unless you are dieing 😋
And be positive everything will fall in place..let's be hopeful 🤗

@Kiza hopefully the lady sends the letter through soon because some clarity would be nice! I'm new to all this stuff & she was talking quite quick on the phone so good knows what I've signed myself up for 😂😂

@Etonmess20 ahhh, could be the lap and dye your having rather than the HSG but I'm sure your letter will confirm. They are similar but also different 😄

@Kiza I'm waiting for her to send my appointment letter through but she has booked me in on what should be approx CD17 of my next cycle. I imagine it's for that reason she's given that advice, she's also told me not to waste the clomid as I won't be able to DTD.
It didn't sound as if there was the luxury of phoning on day 1 unfortunately.
I'm only 27 so I'm not hugely worried about missing 1 cycle, a bit of a break might be quite nice after 18 months TTC.

@Etonmess20 are you talking about the HSG test? If it is that and not the lap and dye test then with the HSG you phone them on the 1st day if your AF and they book you in within the next 10 days. You are then not allowed to have sex from 1st if AF until you have the test. However can have sex afterwards as the HSG is some after you finish bleeding but before you ovulate. The reason you cannot have sex from day 1 of AF until the test is they cannot risk you being pregnant. So you can still TTC that cycle and no cycles are lost.
Phone your consultant and clarify the exact name of the test you're having.

@Mamainmaking I hadn't realised you were based in Germany, is the health system much different there?
The only annoying thing is that if this 1st clomid cycle doesn't work we will have to stop TTC for a month as I'd been told you're not to have unprotected sex beforehand ☹️
