August might be pact might be madness part 2

@kirinm Sorry for the BFN’s. There does look to be a line in that test you posted but it doesn’t seem to have colour 😔 are you going to test again tomorrow?

@claireb7rg Glad they have put you on the urgent waiting list. Hopefully it won’t be long before they’re in touch with you.

I think I ovulated yesterday judging by my nips 🤣 I’m going to try and not count how many DPO I am throughout the TWW though so I’m not obsessing. AF due 12th October

Ugh rang the sub fertility clinic - we are on the urgent list but that's still got a potential 6-10 WEEK waiting list due to covid backlog. There is a chance that it will be shorter than that. They are waiting for consultant to review the referral but then they'll send out a letter to us with info about booking appointment.

Hate to think what the non urgent wait list is then

Morning girls.
That’s annoying @kirinm I was like that in August, usually have a 28-29 day cycle ended up with a 33 day cycle I was so upset but knew I wasn’t pregnant as was just getting BFN.

@MrsB2019x that’s so weird cause I was talking to one of my colleagues yesterday and she said the exact same thing 😆

@whambam89 I tried doing no opks last month and it was just a hit and hope so I’ve started taking one a day from Sunday and will continue and then do 2 a day from next week 😅

I’m cd8 today nothing new, I’ve started taking pregnacare vitamins and my clear blue sticks arrived so will start trying them out next week 🤣 xx

I suspect it's an indent especially because I did a FRER and that is a clear BFN. Annoying.

@kirinm at the moment it's much less stressful but I'm not sure how it'll be in the TWW! We'll see - I've started taking some different vitamins this month so it might change my cycle which wouldn't be ideal!

@whambam89 are you finding not using OPKs less stressful? I'm buying some today as the not knowing where I am in my cycle is too frustrating- typical that the one month I don't use OPKs my cycle changes 🙄

Ive avoided these boards for a couple of months as we started undergoing tests for fertility, turns out when you start doing things like that you get your BFP! I am so excited and just needed to share with people who understand ❤️

Morning @kirinm sorry that you think AF is on her way! I think I should be in my FW this week but not using OPKs and trying to just read the signs of my body, had a little EWCM yesterday, I think I'll probably ovulate towards the end of the week (hopefully as we haven't DTD yet this week 😂) how's everyone else?

Two very clear BFN today so I'm definitely out. Just waiting for AF to arrive. I had what looked a bit like EWCM on CD15 so if I ovulated around then rather than earlier which I thought, then I could be looking at a 30 day cycle as I normally have a 15 day LP. Urgh. Would just like to move on now!

How is everyone else doing? Into fertile week soon?

Congrats @PabsyPops ❤️

EEEEEKKKKKKK!!!!!

No AF yet. I'm normally 26 days but last month was 27 days so maybe I'm due tomorrow rather than today 🤷🏻‍♀️

[quote kirinm]@claireb7rg I'm pleased you've been able to discuss things and you think you could adopt. That would be fantastic. Do you know when your fertility appointment will be?[/quote]
Not a clue unfortunately, no idea if there is a backlog either 😢

If we haven't heard within a month I think we might give it up and concentrate on adoption

@claireb7rg I'm pleased you've been able to discuss things and you think you could adopt. That would be fantastic. Do you know when your fertility appointment will be?

We had a talk last night about things. We came to the agreement that we will see what options we have once we see the sub fertility clinic but we probably won't go onto ivf (suspect we won't get funding anyway).

I've been looking into the adoption side of things a lot more and I think it is where we are going to go. I've spoken to a few friends who have adopted and theyve answered some of my questions.

We both agree though that we would rather adopt than not have children. And that will probably involve sibling adoption.

I am now cd9 and got flashing smiley yesterday and today so potentially ovulation will be end of the week

Morning. Still wishing I knew precisely when I ovulated! I think AF is due to arrive today - last month it was towards the evening so we shall see.

Thankfully no AF cramps today so far. Does anyone else get af cramps a few days before AF is due and then nothing again until AF arrives?

@stickytoffeepud1991 My nips are like razors the day after 🤭😂

@Sansa87 thank you anyway!! X

@MrsB2019x thanks hun! Ohh how does your body know when it’s ovulated Xx

@kirinm It’s relaxing so far, but my body will let me know the day after I ovulate so it’ll be interesting to see how I am in the TWW! Sorry you got another BFN today x

Thanks @stickytoffeepud1991 I hope so! Good luck for yours 😁

@stickytoffeepud1991 the app doesn’t do anything that any other app will do. I just got caught up with how fancy it sounded 😂 it probably took more time having the sync it every morning than it would do just using another app tbh.

@Sansa87 thanks hun really helpful.
I haven’t got the Bluetooth one mind I’ve just got the normal sticks so I don’t think I can use that app. Xx

@stickytoffeepud1991 that’s my results. Mine was obvs a bit iffy that month due to the surgery, but the first month was perfect. I tested once a day, and as soon as I got the flashing smiley we started dtd when we could, & then dtd when we got peak. Obviously we were incredibly lucky and it worked both times.

Hi ladies.
Been absent for a few days only cause I have nothing to report. CD6 so about to start testing once a day using my cheap opks.
@Sansa87 that is amazing congratulations beautiful little bean. Also forgot to ask I ordered some of them CB advanced digital opks and just wondering how often you tested using them and if you had a static smiley did you dtd on that day? (I think static smiley is peak isn’t it?)
@kirinm so sorry that you’ve had a BFN 😔 so exhausting every month getting a bfn.
@Tigger1987 that’s an amazing line!! Congratulations lovely 😻
@MrsB2019x exciting!! I love fertile week only cause it’s exciting fx this is your month!! Xxx

@MrsB2019x good to hear you're enjoying taking a more relaxed approach. It is definitely the opposite for me as I hate not being sure when I ovulated!

@MrsB2019x no, AF is due tomorrow. I've had really bad period cramps and aches today and yesterday. Definitely worse than usual. BFN again today.
