Oooooh get a FRER @bwfcchick88 you'll know for sure! My fingers are crossed for you xx

[quote TTCagainHOPEFUL]@bwfcchick88. Hopefully it’s a positive for you. Get a pink dye test. Fingers crossed for you[/quote]
Thanks hun..I have a feeling it's just a random test and my period will start, but will see. It was our first month using the OPK sticks so far too good to be true that it would happen the first month. Will see how it goes x

[quote TTCagainHOPEFUL]@bwfcchick88 how long after doing the test did this line come up?

I’ve had trouble with these tests and sadly they were evap lines. I was adamant I was pregnant after seeing loads of them but then my period came 😩[/quote]
Ah ok, it came up within the required time but still a bit weird... I'll see what happens, thanks though x

Argh, guys - ever since we decided to stop making so much effort I’ve been feeling really guilty and like I shouldn’t have given up, and DH has pretty much lost his sex drive entirely all of a sudden and I don’t know what to do.
I’m on CD21 today which is the start of my two week potential ovulation window, felt like sex, and tried but he rejected me so hard and pretty much has now run off upstairs. It caught me by surprise.
Still waiting for test results, I really don’t know what to do. I was kind of hoping for a decent amount of sex this cycle without planning it, so there might be a chance, but things have just suddenly gotten weird. 😩

Blossom428 · 04/12/2020 17:07

Bonus with the drinks at Christmas!! I'm trying to come up with ideas to hide it, but it's going to be difficult. Least the pubs aren't open where I live haha! @Chlo2701

Blossom428 · 04/12/2020 17:07

Sorry to hear stark white- but there's still time!! @Chlo2701
One cycle it did push back ovulation. So I used to take b complex up till ovulation, some times stop that a few days before and then I would take B6 after ovulation.
I'm okay thanks, I'm 6+4 today. Time is going the slowest EVER! Scan next Thursday. Very mild symptoms so I'm fearing the worst, but trying to keep positive as I know some people jsut don't have many like you say with your friend.

Chlo2701 · 04/12/2020 15:57

Also @Blossom428 did the vitb's affect your ovulation do you know?

Chlo2701 · 04/12/2020 15:53

@AnxiousAnnie86 RHR plummeted today & I did a FRER & it was stark white so AF definitely coming tonight or tomorrow. I'm annoyed but at least I can have a drink at Christmas so that's a bonus! I'm CD31 today which is unheard of so @Blossom428 those vitb have given me an extra day so I'm pleased about that as my usual LP is only 10days.
@AnxiousAnnie86 that's sooooo shit that you're suffering with sickness again but it'll all be worth it in the end! Can't believe you'll be 10wks tomorrow!! Crazy how quick time is going. My best friend is 10wks on Monday & she's not had any sickness at all (lucky cow) she's just constantly hungry🙈🙉 good luck with the scan on Tuesday, please come bk on here & update me!😃
@Blossom428 how far are you now? How you feeling & have you had a scan yet? Xx

Blossom428 · 04/12/2020 08:57

@Chlo2701 my fingers are crossed for you lovely 🤞🏽🤞🏽 Bvits have me an extra day each cycle. How many days usually is your LP?

AnxiousAnnie86 · 04/12/2020 06:08

@Chlo2701 hey lovely!! How is rhr this morning?? What cycle day is it now? That chart looks really promising I hope it is still up for you!!

I'm okay, the doctor put me on cyclizine as my sickness was out of control, it took the edge off, but didn't "cure it" but yesterday and so far today no sickness at all so obviously I'm panicking, im 10 wks tomorrow, had a scan at 8+5 and all was okay, have a other Tuesday. Which is nhs dating scan so think they will
Make me come back x

@TheOrangeMonster that's brilliant news about hubby's sperm!! One less thing to worry about!😀

@AnxiousAnnie86 how have you been feeling hun? Is the sickness bad this time again? 😣 how far are you now?

I'm just over here waiting for AF🙋‍♀️ period was due Tuesday but I ovulated 2days later so really I suppose it's due today. I started taking the Vitb supps a wk and a half ago to try & extend my LP, so if AF doesn't come tonight I'm wondering if they've got in my system & given me an extra day🤞🏻

My RHR is the highest it's been today & it usually drops for AF, but hasn't yet🤷‍♀️ & I had a big dip yesterday & I did wonder today if that was potentially an implantation dip🤔 I really don't want to get my hopes up so going to see what my RHR is like tomo as might plummet right down by the morning😣

@TheOrangeMonster that's good news on husbands swimmers!! As if it is the man there isn't a great deal they can do there! So that's a start! It's insane isn't it the difference if you go private! Fingers crossed you will get some answers soon! It could be something so so simple! Xx

Hi everyone
Hi @AnxiousAnnie86

Quick update from me in case it’s helpful for any long-haulers here.

Had my adrenal gland test today - three different blood draws and injected with a synthetic stress hormone to see how my body responds. Results in about a week.

Some positive news - which brings with it a little added confusion: waiting list for NHS semen analysis was 6 months! So we paid to go private and had it done immediately. We got the results of that and it turns out that not only is my husband normal, he’s actually got a very high sperm count of 196 million (normal range is 20m-200m) and they’re normal shapes and sizes, and they swim really well. So......it ain’t my poor husband!

Hoping for quick results from my test today! 🤞🏻

AnxiousAnnie86 · 27/11/2020 06:13

Hey ladies, just checking in, hoping you are all well! How you getting on? X

Thank you 😊 @bwfcchick88

bwfcchick88 · 17/11/2020 18:35

@Blossom428 Congratulations! So pleased for you 😃

WaitingForEgg · 16/11/2020 21:13

@Chlo2701 Thursday/Friday time. I’m feeling very grumpy this week

mommyofone2019 · 16/11/2020 20:45

@Chlo2701 ah really, that's reassuring to know. Keep comparing to last time 😖

Peony20 · 16/11/2020 20:24

Hey @Chlo2701 yeah I have been but had No spike so I don’t think it will be my time this cycle but you just always Hope and cling onto anything 😬🤦🏻‍♀️ X

Chlo2701 · 16/11/2020 20:19

Ahhhh @Blossom428 that's a good progression! 🥰 it's really happening!😬

@Peony20 fingers crossed AF doesn't come & that spotting at 8DPO was implantation🤞🏻 do you track your temp or RHR?

@mommyofone2019 I had implantation bleeding with my first but never did with my second, so fingers crossed for you too🤞🏻

@WaitingForEgg when is AF due for you?

Blossom428 · 16/11/2020 19:53

Plus no symptoms at all

Blossom428 · 16/11/2020 19:52

7dpo is still early days, I tested at 9dpo and got a negative. @mommyofone2019 there's still hope 😊😊

Fingers crosssed @Peony20
