We’re nearly full so made us another thread!

How is everyone?

I’m 6DPO CD31.. going to be a 40+ day cycle.. as if 30 doesn’t feel long enough!! Nothing to report aside from that.

@Kalecat Ahhhh amazing!!!! Congrats!! Can't believe you got a 1-2 weeks on a digital!

@Littlebee1990 @1992EM Thanks guys 🤞🏻 Can't be smooth sailing though can it? Found out at 2.30pm that we couldn't exchange today because one of my middle names is missing... let's ignore the fact that the bank don't have enough characters to fit my entire name which is why it shows 3/4 on my current mortgage 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hopefully next week will be the week for good news!

1992EM · 16/10/2020 17:48

@smushty14 congratulations on your new house 💕

@kalecat amazing news, congratulations 💕

Littlebee1990 · 16/10/2020 17:40

@Smushty14 That’s so exciting! I hope it all goes well for you!

@Kalecat Yay! Super excited for you but also remember how petrifying it is ❤️

Hope everyone is having a good week!

Thought I would share an update that we finally had our mortgage offer through and we are now aiming for exchange tomorrow and completion a week tomorrow!

Can't wait to be in our family home so we can start trying 🎉

Flittingaboutagain · 10/10/2020 10:35

Oh she sounds like a brilliant doctor. Hopefully it wont come to that but reassuring to have her on board!

1992EM · 10/10/2020 10:34

I hope everyone is well and so nice to see those who are pregnant are keeping well . @annaposie i hope things work out well for you .

Good luck to.those heading into fertile week or just finished and now in the dreaded tww.

I should be ovulating next week. We are both off so hopefully I do and this is our month .

Kalecat · 09/10/2020 19:08

Saw my doctor today. She was wonderful in hearing out my concerns and booked me for bloodwork on CD21 (Wednesday) to check my progesterone and other levels to rule out any concerns that could be causing chemicals. She recommended I stop testing early (but I know I’ll never be able to do that...😂) and try to relax. If I have one more chemical she’ll send us to a fertility specialist, but said she doesn’t think it’s necessary yet, and is hopeful for us! 🤞🏼😊🌈

Fran2020 · 09/10/2020 13:52

@Littlebee1990 thank you! If it does come, I have my plan though! 😊

@dogmam definitely, so much waiting around! I had the day 3 and day 21 blood tests which were all normal and showed I was ovulating. My partner had a semen analysis which was normal. Then I had an ultrasound which possibly showed a few things which is why I have been referred to Gynae. That's good you can get going with some tests now!

Nottherealslimshady · 09/10/2020 12:02

@Littlebee1990 I'm so so happy for you!

@AnnaPosie if you haven't had any bleeding then I'd say it's all good, could have been late ovulation or implantation, or your urine just isn't as strong. I'm sure it'll be positive news at the doctors :)

Finally got my scan date for 27th October, excited but nervous, everything seems to be going well :)

dogmam · 09/10/2020 08:34

@fran2020 I think it's all the waiting around isn't it. What were the results of your initial tests? And any others you've had so far? We have been trying for a year so just on the early stages of tests.

Littlebee1990 · 09/10/2020 07:07

@dogmam Thank you! Good luck with the tests today.

@Fran2020 I’m hoping AF stays away for you and sending loads of baby dust

Fran2020 · 08/10/2020 22:35

@Flittingaboutagain thank you, me too! Keeping my fingers crossed for you too? When is AF due? Mine is due on Monday.

Fran2020 · 08/10/2020 22:34

@dogmam Thank you, me too, it's just been quite frustrating. Glad to hear things are moving on for you too. How long have you been trying now?

dogmam · 08/10/2020 20:43

@littlebee1990 I am super excited for you and pleased everything is working out this time! Xxx

@Annaposie hmmm interesting, maybe you just ovulated later than you thought? Yeah deffo contact your gp, let us know how you get on but fingers crossed this is it!

@kalecat wow that premom screenshot is impressive! This has got to be your month surely?!

@Fran2020 pleased your investigations are moving along!

Got my 21 day bloods tomorrow and my other half is booked in for his SA at the end of the month so hopefully get some answers soon as I am stressed AF as to why this stilllll hasn't happened for us ☹

AnnaPosie · 08/10/2020 19:59

@littlebee1990 thank you ! Yes I am seeing this said a lot so makes me feel better ! The chemists here only stock clear blue so I couldn't try first response

AnnaPosie · 08/10/2020 19:58

@flittingaboutagain

Yeah my period is always bang on but I could have mixed up my date you never know with me 😂 I've read a couple of places here that clear blue have not always been reliable with the week prediction and can be off a few weeks but I really don't know so just need to see a doctor . I get you, it feel like you can't win sometimes as so many new worries pop up then !

Littlebee1990 · 08/10/2020 19:56

Thank you all so much

@AnnaPosie Clearblue digitals are notoriously wrong and shit. I never got 3+ on one and have seen soooo many threads of people saying the same.

@Kalecat You enjoy the rest and I’m hoping for a BFP for you!!

❤️❤️❤️❤️

Kalecat After all that naked effort you deserve it Wink

Fran2020 · 08/10/2020 19:42

@Littlebee1990 Awww fantastic news! So happy for you 😊

Flittingaboutagain · 08/10/2020 19:41

Hi all.

Littlebee that is ace! I'll be keeping everything crossed for 12 week scan.

AnnaPosie are you sure of your dates?I didn't get 3+ until I was about 7 weeks I'm sure.

I'm in my 2ww and feeling weird about it. I know after my 12 week mc I'll be in such an anxious place if I get a BFP but also obviously would rather get one than not! Can't win haha

Great things are progressing Fran. Slowly but surely!

Fran2020 · 08/10/2020 19:35

Hey, sorry I've taken some time out! How is everyone? I'm 11DPO on cycle 16. Still waiting for my Gynae and fertility clinic referrals. But I did have a private consultation on Monday and going to actually get the rubella immunisation now in the hope it gives me SOME kind of immunity. Then after a month, I will have the HSG x

AnnaPosie · 08/10/2020 15:14

So I've done 3 strip tests and got positives and did a clear blue digital and got a BFP saying 2-3 weeks, now I would have thought I was more than that more like 7 as my period was due 17 September and didn't arrive , I'm going to try and see a doctor asap

Kalecat · 08/10/2020 07:19

Just finished DTD for the 7th day in a row... and the 10th time in 11 days... DH and I are TIREDDDD 😩😂. I don't want to see him naked for at least a week 😂😂😂
I think it’s safe to say that my fertile window was completely covered..... lol. If that didn’t knock me up, idk what will 😂
