TTC 35+ thread 10

oh and was advised to stop using okps and just dtd every other day for the whole month no matter if i feel i know when ive ov.

@VixFromThe6ix how long have you been on progesterone? did you do anything else different? x

@VixFromThe6ix got everything crossed for you, seeing bfp makes me so happy and gives me hope xx

i'm all over the place atm got a very very faint bfp at 8dpo then a bfn today at 10dpo.
which definitely has me thinking its implantation failure.
also had appointment with gyne i was really excited that it was in clinic and not over the phone but was a total waste of time. they gave me a prescription for progesterone but other then that told me I'm unexplained and nothing more they can do for me.
she did suggest acupuncture and a fertility vit online called impryl, which funny enough I've looked into already.
and told me not to waste money on iui and to private fund IVF.

@got2be thanks, babe. Hope it's a stickler!!

How are you getting on??

@VixFromThe6ix congratulations xx

@A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 thanks a bunch 😌

Congrats @VixFromThe6ix!!!

@thislittlebird I don't know, mine has been for new prescriptions. But you're right, its just a repeat, you shouldn't have to go private for that.

@Misty84 yeah it wouldn't be one I'd be needing to force down for sure!

@A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 I agree, booze would be a brilliant supplement! I’d be a natural at taking that! 😛

@thislittlebird Yep, private= rock and a hard place 😫

@Geriatric1234 thanks so much!! You guys are making me excited. I'm trying to stay cool calm and collected till I get some darker results lol but it's so hard not to hope that this could be it 🥳😬

Aaaaaahhhhhh!!! Congrats @VixFromThe6ix!!!!

@notyetamumbuttrying thank you, love!! I'm holding myself from getting too excited. We just had a chemical last month so I'm hoping so much that this will be progressing 🤞🙏🤞🙏🤞🙏

@Marvellouslymadmum whoop, good to know! Aw bless him! Hope not too long for the results and that they're great 😊

@VixFromThe6ix congrats 🥳 what an amazing line for so early! That'll be very dark by the time your period is due! How exciting 😃

@A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 @Noodella18 mine is 12 days too!

@A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 can a private GP deal in repeat prescriptions? I’m not sure.

@Marvellouslymadmum so jealous of your good GP 😂. I wish my husband would go on a health kick, it’s annoying me he’s not trying to lose weight. He needs to shift a stone and I want to see if it helps him.

@AnxiousWannabe I’m already going private for everything but my GP at this point, it’s crazy. About six or seven hundred pounds on private dermatology and prescriptions to get the GP to help and now maybe a private GP too. Not to mention the thousands for private ivf we have planned....😐

I really resent private but what can you do, rock and a hard place.

@GuessHowMuch I hope you don’t need them again, not ideal.

Ladies... I'm cautiously optimistic. 9dpo

Of course couldn't wait till 12dpo cause when it comes to desserts and peeing on sticks, I am weak.

Please send me some positive vibes that this line is going to grow darker and darker over the next few days.

@Marvellouslymadmum ahh he got to do it at home. Bless him for being nervous, but good it gave him a kick up the bum to get ordering healthy stuff!

@GuessHowMuch and @Noodella18 do we have a new tried and tested fertility superfood - booze?! I'll happily take that over the sour pink grapefruit I had earlier

@thislittlebird I was on pred for both my pregnancies and for some of the time in between as well (I’ve got really crappy Rheumatoid). I put on so much weight - I definitely wouldn’t want to go on them long term again 😬

@A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 the month I got my BFP with DC1 was the one we completely gave up trying. We booked an expensive last minute holiday and spent the full two weeks totally hammered!

@Noodella18 maybe I should just go for it and take it as a good omen then 😁

@A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 I mean, I got hammered the night before I got my bfp with my daughter... 😂

@Noodella18 12 ish days too! I have a big night out next weekend so was hoping I could test before, but with this later ovulation this month I'll have to drink in moderation just in case boo

@a1b2c3d4e5f6g7 yes, cycle buddies! How long is your luteal phase normally? Mine is 12ish days, so I'm due around 1st June 🤞 don't know why but I have a good feeling about this month!

@Marvellouslymadmum amazing you’ve got your scan so soon! This is a productive week for you two. Good luck for the semen analysis. My partner got his through and was a bit surprised that they spelled out the sample is to be provided in the office 😂

@thislittlebird I am so sorry you had to deal with all these. I was about to say this too - probably go private for once to de-stress yourself and get your meds sorted. You shouldn't have had to go through all these...it's just madness

@Marvellouslymadmum ooh I've not tried goji but I love most berries so will give them a go should we move onto a 2nd ivf cycle. What time in your cycle are you supposed to have those or is it all cycle round?
Hope peaks still to come! Good luck for your OH's SA today and yay for your scan tomorrow, hope all goes well 😘
