TTC chat 2

@laura2093 it’s so hard isn’t it but that’s brill that you’ve managed to get referred quickly. Did all your initial tests come back normal? Just wondering if they’ll knock us back if we asked to get referred if OH SA came back normal.

@LRW26 hello lovely- he was nervous also but just did it because we wanted answers.

We are now on cycle 12 😞

I’ve never heard of pineapple core? 😂 we’ll try anything won’t we haha.

This is cycle 13 for me and just over a year and a half of BC but I was on it for 10 years so feel that might’ve done something 🤦🏻‍♀️

I think if the OH gets a SA test and it comes back normal I might see what we need to do to be referred but they might not refer us if our tests are normal.. who knows 🙈

@LRW26 this is cycle 6 of properly trying now, but have been off bc since July. Not as long as some, just feels like forever.

I know the feeling, I've spent so much this month on different vitamins & preseed (which we didn't even end up using!). Also been forcing myself to eat pineapple core haha

Hi ladies! Please can I have your expertise... I don't a hpt this morning but my 2yr old woke up so I couldn't read the results in the time frame as u got distracted doing breakfast etc. Could this be a bfp or evaps?? Has anyone had evaps like these before? I'm trying my hardest not to get too excited. It's been a long time trying!! Af is due tomorrow and I will take another test in the morning.

@Tabbycat92 I know exactly how you feel. I know you’ve probably mentioned in the group but how long have you been TTC?

We used pre-seed this month (we’ve used conceive plus for months and it never did anything) so I really thought it might happen for us so it’s just so disheartening. Especially when you’re spending so much money every month on everything 🤦🏻‍♀️

@LRW26 I know. I'm always convinced I can see a line 😩 I feel the same after testing negative yesterday at 7dpo, which I know is far too early. I just think I feel like it's never gonna happen now

@Tabbycat92 I know but I just have a feeling like I know I’m out. I thought I saw a really faint line yesterday and though ‘oh it’s just early’ so was hoping I’d see it today but nothing. It’s so hard 😞 xx

@LRW26 it's still early! You're not out yet. I know the feeling though ❤️

I just did an easy@home at 10dpo and it was stark white so just going to assume I’m out 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’ll never learn to just wait and not test.

@laura2093 I think my OH is going to ask to have a SA but he’s just a bit worried on how awkward it’s going to be. Sorry if you’ve mentioned before but how long had you been trying before they referred you?

Haha that's true @DNpink82

I wouldn't recommend it! I'm forcing myself to wait until the weekend at least!

@Tabbycat92 I was just thinking of doing one in the morning at 8dpo 🙈 and on the bright side at least you not wasted a good one 🤷‍♀️🤣

Just depressed myself by doing a IC at 7dpo 😩 when will I learn... 😂

Not just any old IC either, this one was also 7 months out of date! 😂😂

@LRW26 hello, no so far he has only been for SA. Currently waiting on our initial phone call to book an appointment x

@apwilso so sorry to hear AF turned up 😞 yes, definitely speak to your GP see what they can do for you. Look after yourself xx

@LRW26 I'm out it came this morning 6 days late. Gutted. But we are looking into it further possible testing etc

@apwilso I’ve read some people don’t get a positive test for a while so you’re not out until AF shows. Hope this month is your month.

I’m 8DPO and trying so hard not to test just because I know it’ll be negative and I’ll just drive myself insane 🤦🏻‍♀️

@laura2093 good to hear you've been referred and hopefully get some answers. Did your OH have to get any initial tests before you got referred?

@Tabbycat92 I’ve never done BBT but I would think you have ovulated if you’ve had positive OPKs?

@Tabbycat92 I don't record my temp. I'd go off the opks to be honest as I think that's more reliable.

@laura2093 fingers crossed

6 days late me at the minute. Negative tests. Constantly bloated. Extremely tired. Nauseous on the weekend. Lower back ache. But god knows

@apwilso cycle day 13 today 'predicted ovulation'. See what happens!! X

Has anyone ever had a bbt chart like this? I've got my dip and rise for ovulation, but by now my temp has risen up around 98 (you can see from last months), but it's still kicking around 97.7. I'm worried I may not have ovulated, even though I had positive opks

@laura2093 let me know if you do and I'll let you know how it goes! What day of your cycle are you on?x

@apwilso thankyou! Hope this month is the one for you! I might try the tablets next month! Xxx

@laura2093 that's what this month for me was. I stopped testing etc due to getting obsessed. I recommend the conceive plus vitamins apparently there miracle tablets?! I'm just still waiting to see it there done there but😂

I can't comment on referrals as I've done not that yet. But I've got my fingers crossed it all goes well x

Hello ladies ❤️ I hope you are all well? I took a bit of break from here whilst I got my head in a better place. We are still trying this month, now using conceive plus lube and my partner taking macca root as well. I take seven seas too. We are not doing opks or temp. Just going with my normal cycle... less pressure and bulking DTD around one week.
We have now officially been referred- just waiting for a phone call to book the initial appointment. I'm anxious but pleased things are moving forward. Any ideas what to expect at the first appointment? Xxx
