@HappyVibes haha yeah definitely if you're doing vaginally skip AF xx

Thanks @VP91x I temped at the very beginning of TTC vaginally so I may just do that again. Put as I’m doing vaginally I think I’d prefer to wait off u tik after AF 🤣xx

VP91x · 06/09/2020 14:54

@Pugprincess Amazing news you must be so relieved. Loving the bi weekly scans definitely something I would do. Hope you're enjoying the fab news ❤️

@HappyVibes I temp orally, but vaginally is prone to less fluctuations. For example, orally you have to literally do it before even opening your eyes. Vaginally doesn't vary as much so you could get up to get the thermometer for an example. I temp during AF purely out of habit. Xx

@Pugprincess congratulations lovely, how beautiful of a Sunday for you. 💓

HappyVibes · 06/09/2020 14:29

Ladies who temp without Ava - do you temp orally or vaginally? Also, do you temp throughout AF, or wait for after AF to finish?

I temped are the very start of TTC but I didn’t understand it and was a faf so I gave up, & just stuck with CB digi. Xxxx

MinnieMouse4 · 06/09/2020 14:23

@Pugprincess that really is great news! So happy for you xx

chloedancer897 · 06/09/2020 14:07

@Pugprincess amazing news. Congrats!xo

Lollol86 · 06/09/2020 14:04

@Pugprincess oh wow that is amazing news congratulations xx

MichT4 · 06/09/2020 13:35

Amazing news @Pugprincess! So happy for you! xx

Runnergirl1 · 06/09/2020 13:12

@Pugprincess - that’s brilliant news. Bet you are relieved. Enjoy every minute x

Pugprincess · 06/09/2020 12:50

Thanks guys the scan went really well! Baby has caught right up. It’s grown 11 days in the past 9! I’m now measuring 7+3 and I think I’m roughly 7+4 today so baby is bigger than the last one now. She could see the arm buds developing ❤️ Really relieved and happy. I’ve booked in again for sat 19th lol. X

MrsK21 · 06/09/2020 11:01

I pressed send too quickly! Doh!

@RichmondLady1981 you've definitely not missed the peak! Get going today 💦
Like you pre MC my cycles were bang on 28 days. I had to wait 11 weeks for it to return and now had a 25 day cycle so it's really screwed things up. I'm going to try and get an average over the next few cycles and see what it does.

@HappyVibes so sorry you're having a downer. It's all so hard and all consuming, have you done anything nice just for yourself lately completely unrelated to TTC? Maybe it will help. Glad you're getting somewhere with your referral and gynae though. Hope they are helpful xxx

MrsK21 · 06/09/2020 10:58

@Northernsoul90 I totally get what you mean. I made a bit of a conscious effort to DTD outside of FW and also found OH was happier than we did. I think it made him feel less "used" but also I just enjoyed it rather than thinking right hurry up so I can get my legs in the air!

@MichT4 hope you had a lovely day at your sisters yesterday and glad to hear it's getting easier around the family. Sometimes you just need to disconnect a bit from them.

@Pugprincess hope your scan goes ok lovely! X

@Lollol86 so so pleased about your scan! You are definitely pregnant and try to enjoy these next few months xxx

chloedancer897 · 06/09/2020 10:45

@MichT4 I mustn't have had enough sleep! I'm not sleeping well at all. I'm switching between night and day shift so I think it's throwing me out of whack. I was hoping to see what my temp was like today, whether it went down or not. Oh well! Glad you are enjoying Loki, puppy stages are hard but you'll miss them when the doggy is all grown up. Much like baby times!

@VP91x no temp today so I'm in limbo!lol AF due Tuesday/Wednesday. My DH wouldn't let me buy tests but I have some of the easy@home ones in the cupboard that he doesn't know about... how early can you use them?😂

HappyVibes · 06/09/2020 10:37

Thanks lovely @VP91x Absolutely. I’m going to see what they say on Monday & what options they have available to support going forward - is more bloods, scans, etc. I’m going to ask about clomid, HCG & HMG so I know at one point they could be an option for us, if at all. Clomid is often prescribed to women who ovulate too but have unexplained infertility. I’m excited for tomorrow now. ☺️

Glad I have this appointment so timely or I would be struggling this month to get optimism and positivity back in time for FW. Me & OH have agreed not to really talk much about TTC now. Just let me do the OPKs and tracking, & obvs he would know when FW is through that. But other than that we are gunna stop talking about it in general. See how that goes eek xxx

MichT4 · 06/09/2020 10:35

@Tink20058 I just read back over to find your message about your double confirmation of a little girl 💗. Such lovely news. And your bump 💗 makes me melt xx

AlisonT13 · 06/09/2020 10:24

@HPenthusiast I'm sorry for your loss. Also, CD10 might not be your true peak. If your HCG levels haven't dropped to normal, then ovulation test might pick up HCG hormone and cause false LH surge result. Anyway, please keep testing to track. Good luck!

Runnergirl1 · 06/09/2020 10:22

@Pugprincess. Hope everything goes well for you at the scan x

VP91x · 06/09/2020 10:19

@Tink20058 so lovely that you'll have a girl to add to the family. Haha although Bella has weed on my floor a few times so I'm not sure how much less stinky they are. Yeah officially 4dpo, can you believe it!

@Rb486 I hope you are feeling better 💕

@Bellabubble oh no!! I'm so sorry that you had such a crappy month, your poor pets 😔. We also lost both our rabbits! Definitely get on the phone to the docs and if they ask how long you've been trying just say over a year anyway and it probably has been with the miscarriage and everything. I'm still waiting for my gynae appt but I took soy iso again this month and finally I've ovulated for the first time since April! I've paid for two private scans, the first one which confirmed PCOS which I'm not sure if you were still on the thread for? And now this one just to see what was going on this cycle.

@chloedancer897 how are you this morning? How's your temps? I hope your daughter enjoyed her birthday day out x

@HappyVibes I'm sorry it was AF for you. Great that you have the gynae appt tomorrow. Careful with the clomid if you know you ovulate every month as it might hyper stimulate you. See what the doc says obviously, I'm sure they'll ahed some light. Sending you lots of luck for your new cycle 💕xx

@Hpenthusiast so sorry for your loss that is so so heartbreaking. Did you get a negative pregnancy test before getting those peaks? Sometimes you'll get a peak if still hcg present. I really hope you get your bfp soon x

@123feraverto welcome so sorry that you've also had two losses consecutively. Lots of luck for this cycle xx

@Diorissimo1985 I've been thinking of you, I hope all is okay? Xx

@Pugprincess good luck for today lovely ❤️

@RichmondLady1981 I'd normally get tests like yours LH surge starts in the afternoon and I would have about 18hrs of positive readings. Normally I would ovulate the 2nd day (confirmed by temps) but it varies by person, think ovulation can be 12-36hrs after the start of your surge then you have up to 24hrs after ovulation to catch the egg, so 2 and a half days from your 5pm test yesterday which would take you to Early Tuesday morning before you're out of fertile window👌🏾

Welcome to those that have joined sorry for your losses ❤️

@RichmondLady1981 I've atatched my chart here just so it always helps, but yes that's what happened! I got my peak on the afternoon at about 2pm of CD12, got an even stronger peak on the morning of CD13 which the sonographer confirmed I would have ovulated at some point later in that day by her estimations and then on CD14 I got a negative OPK by around lunchtime. The huge temp rise on CD14 also correlates with this xx

OP posts:
Pugprincess · 06/09/2020 09:00

It’s probably your peak peak now @RichmondLady1981 think with my cbd you expect to get two days of peaks so I assume it’s the same for those ones? The others will guide you more. I’m confident you haven’t missed it by not doing last night though. Good luck! x

RichmondLady1981 · 06/09/2020 08:54

Thanks @Pugprincess.

I’m working hard on trying to track everything but sooo time consuming and I’m not that knowledgeable. I’m guessing that I’d only ovulate AFTER peak on OPK? Which it seems was yesterday. Would be strange for me to have ovulated yesterday when I had a higher LH reading today? What do you think?

Thanks @MichT4. That’s great info on what happened with @VP91x.

Vp91 would you mind sharing what happened. Did you Actually ovulate on second high (peak) day?

Just getting our cycles out to go for a spin around Richmond park. Should blow away the cobwebs.

Lollol86 · 06/09/2020 08:48

@Pugprincess keep us updated xx

@MichT4 thank you, for the first time yesterday I actually thought to myself I'm pregnant. Next scan is the 26th of September which based on my lmp I will be 10 weeks. I'm actually going to contact the doctors tomorrow to arrange appointments as I haven't done that yet.
I'm such a lightweight now, I used to be able to drink loads but not anymore. I also find if I have a night out I feel awful for days 😂😂 xx
