TTC first baby thread 24

@Kiza oh really? I haven't managed to extensively google just yet 😂

@Etonmess20 aaaah it's the hycosy you're having (think it's more advanced than the hsg I had).

@Lottiepink @XjustagirlX how are you both?

@Kiza thats good to hear you're now able to go for your blood test. Hopefully the results won't take too much longer than they usually would.
Happy days for no spotting so far as well,l 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I've had an appointment through today for a HyCoSy scan on 1st June. Should be CD15 for me if this cycle isn't successful. I've been told no TTC & no clomid for a month, will kind of be nice to have a break x

@orangeloo oohhhh haha that makes more sense! 10dpo and no spotting so far 🤞🏼

@Annny27 sorry to hear that, it's completely understandable though but awful to have such a mixed emotion. When I look at my tiny nephew who was totally unplanned (my sis didn't even want children) I still get sadness sometimes and a 'why not me?'

Found out my local hospital is doing blood tests so I'm going for my AMH test after work on Thursday. No idea how long it'll be till I get the results though

@Annny27 don't feel bad for feeling like that I've caught myself thinking why isn't it me when I've seen announcements from friends and family recently. Really happy for them but tinged with some sadness x

@Annny27 I'm 9dpo over here!
Oh no, really sorry to hear that ☹️ I'd feel exactly the same if I was you tbh, doesn't get any easier. Just try & be kind to yourself, you're not a bad person for feeling sad for you xx

I am 3dpo today :D @Etonmess20 how about you?

I am having a down day now as my friend just announced their pregnancy. I want to be happy for them, and I am, but also I am sad for me 😪

Morning @Annny27 glad you're feeling super relaxed at the mo! How many dpo are you today? X

Morning :) I feel super relaxed about this tww! We will see how well the relaxation is going when I get past 9dpo 🤣

@orangeloo ahh I must admit it would be quite nice to be furloughed so I understand your sadness of it potentially ending!

@kiza yes the countdown to pregnancy app and dpo chances have saved me from early testing a few times! Are you managing to stay calm?

@Etonmess20 oh yes some women are crazy testers....there's been a few months where I have been in of the crazy testers haha!

@kiza oh no that was supposed to say UN furloughed. I don't want to go back to work hahaha. I'm just loving being at home and not rushing around.

I think the progesterone will take effect as soon as you start taking it.
Ah yes do, hopefully they will book you in.
I remember that countdown to test. That is very useful and puts early testing into perspective doesn't it.

@orangeloo oh no, by the sad face you're not happy about potential furlough? Yeah I'm keen to see if the cream changes the spotting, do they say it should be as soon as the first cycle or does it take a few cycles?
I'm going to call my consultant tomorrow as today is the 11th (day govt said clinics can apply to reopen) and ask if I'm allowed to proceed with my AMH blood test as a patient of mine told me another local hospital has been doing regular blood tests during lockdown.

A few threads back someone posted a really interesting photo of your chance of bfp each DPO. I can't find it but found this which can ease your eagerness to test early 😄

@kiza weekend was nice thanks. Did lots of cleaning today as I think I may be in furloughed soon 🙁. About to enter fertile week and really feeling the pressure and nervous as this will be my first progesterone cycle. At least now I should be in with a real chance again.

How are you feeling? Any news about your referral?

@lizzie198 hope things ease for you. Personally I wouldn't worry about what I take in tww if I needed some relief.

@Kiza I can't have caffeine it gives me
Migraines so I've been on decaff for years otherwise I'd be giving that a shot tonight.
Glad it's helped you a little bit though 😊

@Etonmess20 thank you and lots of fingers crossed for Yours and everyone's else's on here too xx

@Kiza I think since I've been on MN I've learnt so much, I never realised some people tested as much as they do,trying not to let the craziness rub off on me but very hard at times 😂

@lizzie198 it's hard to know what to say when asked that question isn't it.

Fingers crossed the medication gets things moving & then fingers even more tightly crossed for a BFP for you! X

@lizzie198 oh bless you 😆 I had a strong fresh coffee this morning (strong caffeine usually works as a laxative for me) just to get some movement. I have been drinking fresh decaf for a while so had some proper stuff in the back of the cupboard. Helped a bit but still not enough!
I've also had insomnia the last 4 days (I'm usually out like a light) and felt really nauseas all afternoon but fine now. Sore boobs since 1dpo but easing off today. I know from previous experience all of this could mean zilch!!! 😂

@Etonmess20 I try to wait until day AF is due as like you I'd rather see AF than a negative.

@Annny27 ahh hopefully you caught 🤞🏼 that's so good having none in the house. About 6 months ago I gave all mine to DP but then sneakily bought IC

@orangeloo how was your weekend?

@Etonmess20 I know it's so hard!

The doctor said "so you might be pregnant?" and when I said yes and when my last period was I almost felt stupid but that's the problem with the TWW you might be and there's no way of telling 🙈

He's sent some stuff to the local pharmacy for me to collect tomorrow and gave me a lecture on fibre, which I already have a lot of in my diet and haven't had this problem before so really hope I get a BFP now to prove it lol x

@lizzie198 I feel like that sometimes, I haven't had a drink at all this cycle as it's my first on clomid but in other cycles I have, then you think if it was your lucky cycle would it have harmed things? 😬

@Etonmess20 not yet the dr needs to give me a call back this afternoon.

Tried Google and the NHS 111 site first as didn't want to take anything that might be risky if we have struck lucky this month and 111 just came up with call the GP lol x

@lizzie198 were they able to suggest anything? Nothing worse than feeling like that ☹️

@Etonmess20 that makes a lot of sense everyone deals with it differently.

I've just called drs to find out if I can take anything for the constipation as getting terrible tummy cramps and feeling sick today.

@lizzie198 don't be!!! 😂 I somehow just find af arriving less disappointing than seeing a negative test...not entirely sure why!! X

@Kiza thank you fingers crossed it is for that reason then 😊

Boobs a bit sore last night and today but really not sure if it just means AF is going to be mega early or if it's normal as I'm a numpty and not been recording these things when we had the break.

My Flo app has never been busier though this month as determined if it's bfn I will have a record of things so I will know if normal
Next month.

@Etonmess20 I'm in awe I don't have your self control x

@lizzie198 I am the opposite way, the last time time I tested was December as AF was 4 days late. Usually I am bang on like clockwork so hardly worth testing for me generally!
Yeah we didn't DTD as much as we'd have liked to in fairness as I've had a kidney infection ☹️

@Kiza would you usually test the morning af is due or would you leave it I til the next day?
I didn't know that about progesterone making things more difficult btw, the things you learn 😂
