@claireb707 that sucks. Sending you hugs.

It’s not going to help you at all just yet, but eventually I hope you can think that this is an answer, and means you know where you stand, & can look at options.

One of my dear friends has just had her second baby via ivf

Also, please allow yourself to grieve. I know when my ex received the same news, I felt guilty for feeling I lost a baby. And he was an asshole who kept saying I wasn’t allowed to be sad because it wasn’t me.

Lots of love xx

Oh @claireb707 I am really sorry to hear that 😢 sending you lots of love x

He's just rang 😢 good motility but very low count. He's been told to book in for testosterone bloods and we'll see what we can do after that. But it's very very unlikely we'll conceive naturally 😢😢

Eeeeeep good luck @89Ann

And good luck for the phone call @claireb707

89Ann · 25/08/2020 08:43

@claireb707 well that was what first popped in my head, cd23 ov was cd 15. Checked my apps and never had any spotting before cd 27 in the 10 months I have been off pill (only been ttc for the last 3) and always have headaches for a day or two before. Oh god this has really gotten my hopes up 🙈

@89Ann implantation?

Omg, I am bleeding at 8dpo 😬 someone help calm me down I have never bled this early and none of normal AF symptoms? I have a funny feeling in my tum but not AF cramps?! Its light pink at the mo

89Ann · 25/08/2020 08:12

Fingers crossed for you @Sansa87 like the others said if you ovulated then AF should not come yet regardless so your symptoms seem positive & it’s not surprising it was a BFN at 8 dpo. I am also 8 dpo and really trying not to symptom spot and obsess, and failing miserably of course!

LT103 · 25/08/2020 08:03

Fingers crossed for you @Sansa87!!

I’m officially in the 2ww! Although ovulating a week late means I’m technically not testing now until September but I’ll hang around here until there’s a September thread haha

I’ll probably test around the 3rd

MrsBtobe2020 · 25/08/2020 07:58

@sansa87 really keeping everything crossed for you now! Before my cycle was extended for 2 weeks, my fertile period was supposed to be right when oh was away for 4 days so I was hoping my body knew that and extended it on purpose

Sansa87 · 25/08/2020 07:52

@whambam89 every so often I feel like that too, but these are pretty intense cramps. I even googled about whether implantation hurts more after the surgical management, but no one is as crazy as me because I found no one asking 😅😅

Feeling quite nauseous, but I know it’s because I’m hot and wearing a mask, and my cervix now feels like it’s on fire.

Enough about me, how are you guys doing? X

whambam89 · 25/08/2020 07:34

@sansa87 if it was implantation then it'll take a couple of days before your HCG levels are high enough for a BFP - I feel like you might have got lucky! 🤞

Sansa87 · 25/08/2020 06:19

FUUUUCK!

I need af to come now if it’s going to come... our fertile week is the week we are staying in a cottage with his parents, his auntie, his uncle, & his cousin 😅🙈

It’s going to ruin our holiday because I know I’ll get shitty when we have zero opportunity to try, and knowing our luck the room we are in will have squeaky floorboards so neither of us will be comfortable.

Again, I repeat... FUUUUUUCK!

@whambam89 no af, but biggest bfn I ever did see this morning.

whambam89 · 24/08/2020 21:36

@claireb707 hope you get some answers! X

whambam89 · 24/08/2020 21:35

@sansa87 how are you getting on? Hope AF hasn't shown for you 🤞

MrsB2019x · 24/08/2020 20:44

Best of luck @claireb707, will be thinking of you d

@MrsB2019x

From what I know the luteal phase always remains the same no matter when you ovulated 🤷🏻‍♀️ I could be talking out my arse but I’m sure I read that somewhere!x
I'd heard the same, 🤞 for you @Sansa87

Partner had a missed call from the doctors today, when he rang back it was about his SA results. The doctor is going to ring him in the morning

Sansa87 · 24/08/2020 09:48

@MrsB2019x yeah,8dpo but it’s exactly 4 weeks since my surgical management. I’m usually a 28 day cycle, but I ovulated day 20. I was hoping for a longer cycle but it might just be I ovulated a week late and my cycle is still going to be 28 days.

MrsB2019x · 24/08/2020 09:29

@Sansa87 Aren’t you only like 8dpo though? Would be a bit soon for AF wouldn’t it?

Aww @MrsBtobe2020 so gutted for you & everyone else whose wedding had to be cancelled this year 😭 when were you supposed to be getting married?

Sansa87 · 24/08/2020 09:24

I feel like I’ve jinxed it wearing Victoria secrets underwear 🙈

I always knew there was a low chance this cycle after the surgery so trying to focus on that instead of being super disappointed.

Obvs it’s not official but it feels it

whambam89 · 24/08/2020 09:14

@MrsBtobe2020 ooh hopefully that's a good omen! Good luck 🤞

@sansa87 you're not out until AF shows, try to think positively x

Sansa87 · 24/08/2020 08:54

Think I’m out 😔 very crampy today, & cervical mucus is definitely tinged pink.

I didn’t get implantation bleeding at all last time, and this is showing all the period symptoms. My boobs don’t hurt, which the only thing different, but I definitely didn’t feel this crampy last time.

Pretty gutted, as I’d started to think that maybe we had managed it again.

MrsBtobe2020 · 24/08/2020 07:44

If my cycle returns to a normal 32 then I will be testing on what should have been my wedding day! Fingers crossed for you @whambam89 @MrsB2019x
