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.

Thanks guys, feeling ok, anxious sometimes but feeling positive.
@1992EM I just got them from a pharmacy in town, I'd been taking seven seas beforehand but couldn't find a boots so just bought these lol

Hope you're all doing well, cant wait to see your BFPs this month x

1992EM · 31/08/2020 20:55

@samibo hopefully it shows a BFP in a couple of days.

@kalecat glad AF was kind to you and you could enjoy your weekend. Fingers crossed September will be our month x

SamiBo · 31/08/2020 20:47

@1992EM That’s a good idea. I don’t want to waste one but I’d hope 4 days late would pick up on one of those. Thank you 🙏 x

SamiBo · 31/08/2020 20:45

@AnnaPosie thank you for the welcome! 😘

@Beepbeep42 Thank you for the advice 🙏 I will try to restrain from crazy person testing for a couple of days. Your line progression is very exciting and encouraging news. I hope they continue to get stronger!💕

Kalecat · 31/08/2020 20:44

@Nottherealslimshady congrats! That's a great line progression 🤍

@Amelia891 the bacheloretteparty was lovely! And AF was kind enough to hold off for 2 days.

With that said, AF has arrived today and I am excited to TTC again in 2 weeks :)

1992EM · 31/08/2020 20:42

@whilstwewait congratulations, its as if it was just meant to be. 🥰

@nottherealslimshady that is amazing progression. Congratulations 💕 I haven't seen those vitamins before but I may try them next month.

lovely to see some positive stories makes you feel like one day it will be you .

@samibo I would get a frer early response . some tests are not sensitive enough to be positive even if you are. Good luck x

@beepbeep42 I hope you are well and you line progresses

@amelia891 Good luck 💕

My oh has agreed to take vitamins they aren't the ones I got but have l the same stuff so thats all that matters 🤣 .No idea what our plan is maybe try every 3 days the full cycle and more when opks are positive .

Beepbeep42 · 31/08/2020 20:28

@Whilstwewait congratulations!

@Nottherealslimshady your line progression looks line mine, fingers crossed for us :-)

@SamiBo a high, soft cervix is a good sign, I'd wait a couple of days then test again - fingers crossed!

Amelia891 · 31/08/2020 19:21

@Kalecat how was the Bachelorette party?

I’m officially a day late and feeling a bit rough. But I’m too scared to test. I’m still having AF type cramps and normal AF symptoms so still fairly sure it’s on the way.

dogmam · 31/08/2020 18:24

@nottherealslimshady line progression looks great! How are you feeling?

@whilstwewait ahh thank you for sharing, I bet that was an amazing feeling especially just before Ivf.

CD10 today for me and other than planing on dtd every other day then nothing much else happening. Hope everyones ok x

AnnaPosie · 31/08/2020 16:35

@nottherealslimshady oh super thank you must look them up

AnnaPosie · 31/08/2020 16:34

@samibo welcome 😊 I would try and test again in a few days. I'm sure others on here will have good advice for you, I'm still figuring this all out 😂🙈

Nottherealslimshady · 31/08/2020 16:27

Oh and these are the vitamins I've been taking

So lovely hearing positive stories. Congratulations!

I’m a newbie here. We’ve been ttc our first for just 6 months. I’m 29. I’ve been trying to not get too serious too soon so haven’t been charting or using opks yet. I have however tracked cervical mucus which has been fairly reliable on day 15/16 of a 28/9 day cycle.

This month has been weird and my reason for posting. I have had sore, sensitive nipples for about a week now. Never had this before. No other definite symptoms. I haven’t felt hungry at all and have been making a LOT of stupid clumsy mistakes in the last week (actually picked up the hot side of the iron the other day, fortunately only mild blistering!) But of course that may not be related.

I was due AF on Saturday (29/08). I had light pink tinge in my otherwise white CM on Friday night. Then Saturday morning, a moderate amount of cramping and pulling in lower abdo for about 5 minutes and a small amount of red blood. I thought it was AF so used a tampon. By lunchtime I went to change it - barely anything on it and that was me done. No blood since, just white CM, my cervix has gone way up high and can barely feel it, it’s so squishy and soft. And I’ve had mild cramps most of today, occasionally enough to make me pause a moment. But... BFN this morning. (Using Internet cheapies)

Has this happened to anyone else? Am I out? Could it be implantation? When should I next test?
Hmm

Nottherealslimshady · 31/08/2020 13:40

Congratulations @Beepbeep42 !
My line progression is looking good. Today is 14dpo for me which last time is when I started spotting but no sign this time.

Good luck to everyone whose tests are coming up ❤

Congratulations @nottherealslimshady and @Beepbeep42

Sorry girls not posted for a while we have been having fertility tests done so i moved over to the infertility boards but have been keeping an eye out. We were due to start IVF next cycle. However found out today that I'm pregnant such a huge relief. All we did differently this cycle was I walked loads and i started acupuncture. However could just be a coincidence and this month was meant to be

Just wanted to update you with a positive story x

Beepbeep42 · 31/08/2020 07:10

@AnnaPosie I've only been taking them for my last 2 cycles (plus they were doing 3 months worth for a fiver in Asda haha)

AnnaPosie · 30/08/2020 18:49

I'll be testing around the 11th of September , hopefully it will be our month , best of luck to those who got their BFN this month ♥️

1992EM · 30/08/2020 15:08

@annaposie sounds like my oh. Its like having a child sometimes 😅

AnnaPosie · 30/08/2020 14:19

@1992EM even if I left them next to the bed he would forget so I literally have to hand them to him 😂 I've left over pregnacare so he's taking them at the moment, I had to stop taking them as they delayed my cycle but I don't think there is much difference between the men's and women's , apparently zinc is the most important vitamin for men. I might order the seven seas next.

AnnaPosie · 30/08/2020 14:13

@beepbeep42 big fingers crossed for you !!
How long have you been taking seven seas if you don't mind my asking ? I had been taking pregnacare but they delayed my cycle by a week so I don't want that happening again

Beepbeep42 · 30/08/2020 08:30

Thanks guys, line seems marginally darker this morning at 11dpo so finger crossed (AF would have been due 12/13 dpo). Feeling quietly confident this morning however I did have a 4am pee-on-a-stick freakout with an hour of analysis soooooo....

I'm taking 7 Seas trying for a baby plus Boots version of Berocca with the vitamin b and d.
When TTC DS I fell the month I started the 7 seas and last months CP was also the first month taking seven seas. Could be coincidence, maybe not (my diet is good but due to location I take D and I've long suspected I don't absorb B12 well).

1992EM · 29/08/2020 17:54

@littlebee1990 thats the ones I bought my oh . I am hoping because we are heading into cycle 5 he will consider it. I've also put them on the bedside table 🤣 so he can't forget.

Littlebee1990 · 29/08/2020 13:13

@1992EM My partner has been taking the wellman fertility ones, he thinks he’s now got super sperm 🙄🤣

@kalecat congrats on your wedding, a lot of brides don't drink on the wedding day as they don't want to be hungover so just start causally mentioning it and no one will think it's odd on the day then

1992EM · 29/08/2020 13:03

@littlebee1990 oh you have done well. I found that as well so thought I would try preseed. I like it but obviously not got pregnant. I still have 2 adapters left so will use it alongside conceive plus (on different days 😅) hopefully that will help. Going to plead with my oh to take the conception tablets and we might be in with a better chance.
