AF due in 3 days.

Am sure I'm out this month - negative FRER today and I have the usual PMS acne.

Just want my period to come already so that I can get this useless cycle over with and have a commiseration beer.

Just frustrating as have been taking pre-conception vitamins for months, cut out caffeine, no alcohol during TWW, have DTD every other day, tracked ovulation and with no success.

Anyone else fancy a moan whilst waiting for AF to show up?

Thank you so much @Sunbird24 💗 can’t believe it’s happened finally! This is such a lovely thread, you’ve all been the most incredible support along the way 💗

Sunbird24 · 09/03/2021 07:45

Wow @Ughmaybenot those lines are beautiful! Absolutely no doubt there at all! So bloody chuffed for you I can’t even words properly... 💕

Ughmaybenot · 09/03/2021 07:35

@LS2020 the lady scanning me on the 25th said I would probably release an egg in the next 24hours so at the very most that makes me 11-12dpo. I need to don’t i?? honestly, only did them this morning so I could put the ‘what if’s to bed!

LS2020 · 09/03/2021 07:32

@Ughmaybenot omg those lines!!! You can’t even be that many DPO are you? What a lovely strong positive. Get a digital!!

Ughmaybenot · 09/03/2021 07:30

Thank you so much @LS2020 💗 can’t believe it even with the tests in front of me, keep thinking I’m reading it wrong somehow 😂

@Ughmaybenot this has made my morning ❤️❤️

LS2020 · 09/03/2021 07:16

@Ughmaybenot omg congratulations!!!! Send us pics of your tests xxx

Ughmaybenot · 09/03/2021 07:10

Congratulations @Sunbird24!!! This is just amazing, so happy for you!

Got two clear as day BFPs this morning. Crying, shaking, still in shock, and now doubting I can even read a pg test right 😂

LS2020 · 09/03/2021 07:04

@Lizbb yay! I’ve never temped but I think there’s apps you can log it on and they confirm O date?

@mrswilso oh no that’s sucks you’ve had a fall out, hope things are a bit better today ❤️

@Ughmaybenot have you seen the latest one - Jon Snow!!! He’s in his 70s, granted they talked about their struggles but still! There has to be hope 🤣 yeah you do get that hope, especially when they say sometimes these tests can up your chances too. We conceived the month after our bloods and SA came back as ok so do think some of the mental knowing it can happen helps.

@Sunbird24 thinking of you and glad all is well - when are you having your scan?

mrswilso · 08/03/2021 23:58

Yaaaay! @Sunbird24 🥳 chuffed to bits for you! 😘
I'm 1dpo and I've had a falling out with DH...still sad about it...it's been a shitty evening 😒 (excuse the bad, but justified, language 🤣)

Sunbird24 · 08/03/2021 22:10

Hi ladies! I’m 5+1 today, completely knackered and could cry at the drop of a hat. However whatever is going on in there it’s staying put...

Ughmaybenot · 08/03/2021 11:54

Seriously seems like it literally is everyone @LS2020!! What’s with that? 🤦🏼‍♀️
My friends are too tho, had to post off two congrats cards just this morning. Cool cool cool.
As an aside, I’m an idiot and I’ve got my hopes up. I’ve got sore boobs, I had a bit of cramping late last week randomly and I’ve been soooo tired. All because the consultant told me I had a couple of eggs ready to go at our appointment on the 25th, so we really went at it for a few days there 😂 realistically, I’m not pregnant but you still get that hope don’t you?

Ughmaybenot · 08/03/2021 11:48

How are you doing @Sunbird24 x

mrswilso · 08/03/2021 10:30

Wayheeey @Lizbb !! 🤣 hope you had a nice evening 😏🤣
I'm not really sure on the BBT as I haven't used it yet but I believe when your temp rises three days in a row after a peak ovulation test that means that you've ovulated?? Don't quote me on that...🤣
@Sunbird24 🌈✨ keeping my positive vibes flowing towards you! 😘

Lizbb · 07/03/2021 15:24

Hey ladies @mrswilso @LS2020 finally got my static smiley face and high opk today. Gonna have some fun l8r. 😃. Queation please. Juat started the bbt but temp still 36.44. When will it increase if indeed it does. After the mc in jan hoping I still ovulate. Have 2 kids already. Youngest 3. Came of pill in nov fell pregnant in dec but mc in jan. As explained above had 4/5 days slightly lighter period just praying I still ovulate. 🤞

@Sunbird24 did you get a scan sorted?

@Ughmaybenot honestly it’s a week until I O and I’m already bored of waiting for that! Sick of every celebrity bringing pregnant too at the moment!!

Ughmaybenot · 04/03/2021 19:18

Aww @LS2020 really feels that way at this stage doesn’t it?? Feel like I’ve been TTC forever!
Yea @Sunbird24 so I think we’ve decided we will continue on the private route until the NHS (hopefully) offers us the same treatment through then iyswim? So we might end up doing three or four months or whatever it takes of private before switching to nhs, depending on how these appointments go next week!

Sunbird24 · 03/03/2021 17:08

Fingers crossed for this cycle for you @LS2020!
@Ughmaybenot will you have your results before your NHS appointment?

AF was due yesterday, so I gave the clinic a call and gave them the good news even though I wasn’t supposed to test until Friday. Just waiting for a call back to book a viability scan, that’ll probably be week of 22 March.

LS2020 · 03/03/2021 16:27

@Sunbird24 how are you doing? 🥰

@Ughmaybenot so typical but NHS will be so much slower trust me!!! Hope your appointment goes well tomorrow, let us know how it goes. AF finished yesterday for me so getting ready for cycle 7000 😂

Ughmaybenot · 01/03/2021 13:28

Of course @Sunbird24 Altho the ignorant so and so had the audacity to bust his knee over the weekend, so it’s careful boinking now 😂 thank you x

Sunbird24 · 01/03/2021 12:55

Haha @Ughmaybenot I hope you took her advice! Good luck for next Thursday, hope you get lots of useful info that makes your way forward easier

Ughmaybenot · 01/03/2021 12:15

Oh congratulations! Keeping everything crossed for the stickiest of beans!! Xxx

We had our in-person appointment at the private fertility clinic last week. Made me laugh, when she was doing the ultrasound, she said that while one ovary was ‘clearly polycystic in appearance’ the other was just revving up to release an egg, so there was strong advice to hop to it with DH 😂 anyway, we get the blood results, SA results and scan results on Thursday next week.
Sod’s law, I had a call this morning from our local hospital to book me in for my NHS appointment... for Thursday next week 😂 after 6 months waiting, they choose the same day. I’ve booked it anyway, and decide on our route moving forward from there.

mrswilso · 01/03/2021 07:26

Oh @Sunbird24 I hope this is it 🤞🏻❤️🌈

Sunbird24 · 28/02/2021 20:26

There’s two beans, but I’ll still be happy with one 🤞

LS2020 · 28/02/2021 20:25

Ahhh @Sunbird24 congrats! I hope you’ve got a really sticky bean in there 🤞🏻
