Nice to hear from you @kaylsd I'm delighted it's the weekend but you're working this one aren't you?

It's really good to hear all the steps your hubs is taking to try and boost his swimmers. When will he have his second SA hun? Have you had any other body signs or you just given up tracking all together?

I really hope everything works out for you and sooner rather than later. It doesn't seem fair that some people breeze through the process whereas others have everything awful thrown at them.

You are so strong though and I have been so impressed with how you have navigated your journey. Hopefully your time will be soon. I can't wait to celebrate with you.

I'm only just 5 weeks today so just slipping out of chemical territory xxx

@CycloGoose 😘😘 you know I'm always here for you girls best I can!

@minthumbugs thinking of you sweet xx

Happy weekend everyone, hope everyone's alright as I've noticed a touch bit quiet but I know how busy life can be for us all!

Hope the ones who are in FW are having the best time (I was going to write banging but then I thought it was abit too much of a crude pun 🤣) those who are in the TWW are relaxed as possible, our graduates growing nicely and those rare cases of me being in the long cycle club, well what can I say what I'm doing just carrying on as normal baby dancing for fun and waiting for the referral fertility fairies when the time comes next month 🙊

My hubs started taking proxceed and is going to take it twice daily until the BFP day! He actually doesn't mind the taste of it to say he was gagging at the wellman tablets which he said tastes like cheap gravy 🙈 so I'm hoping for good things on his next SA as after our carvan week which is in 2 week time with the pooch away he's going t total too to help as much as he can 🙈🤞🏻✨

Without my struggle though I wouldn't have come across some fabulous people on MN who make it all feel better that we are not alone in our journeys 🥰

@kaylsd you are literally the best.

@minthumbugs I'm holding you in my heart wishing for the best possible outcome for you. I don't know if I believe in all this stuff but it sounds like you might be meant to be taking that masters degree. Sending all the love in the world though I know it will never be enough xxx

@minthumbugs
Whatever the outcome we understand whatever decision you need to take for it to be time out for you both physically and mentally as it's a lot to take in, if you are having a methotrexate injection please avoid the sun for a little while as it can cause sensitivity to your skin & anti inflammatory pain relief like Ibuprofen as it can affect the way it works (if you've not already been told this), even if you want to stop the TTC bus and come on as a later passenger I'm sure we will still be here (or I will be with my ovaries been known to be there just for decoration purposes ;)) but sending you the biggest hugs and loves to you both & a speedy recovery and I'm here if you've got any nursing questions too if I can be of any use for you xxx

kaylsd · 10/06/2021 19:39

@CycloGoose hope your keeping well sweetie, can see that it's been a busy at work for you which is never a good thing 🙈 I'm in for a busy one these next 4 days at work too, working the weekend and it's predicting 27 degrees 😩😩😩 might even have to brave wearing my dress uniform without tights and try not to kneel down in carpets full of dead skin & wee 🙃🤣

minthumbugs · 10/06/2021 19:37

Thank you @palegreenandbrightorange ❤️

@cyclogoose thank you for all your support ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you @soontobeamama. X

@kaylsd thank you, that's so lovely 😭 with it being the second I feel a bit less scared about it but not able to get surgical management this time round because of the position. I just really hope and pray the medical management works out 🤞🏻

Don't know where this journey will take me now! Need 6 months away from TTC so I think it might just be back to study for me. I don't know if I can go through it all again but maybe it will work out for us in a few years time if we ever decide to try again ☹️❣️🌈

kaylsd · 10/06/2021 19:37

@Halpmer look at that beautiful bundle growing inside, absolutely lovely to see 🥰 I hope your pregnancy has been a smooth one for you darling ✨

kaylsd · 10/06/2021 19:35

@Veronika13 you may be a fellow cyster like me! It sounds amazing how the system works so forward with the fertility process it's a shame the NHS can't follow suit but least you are moving forward! I also have a high AMH a and being recently diagnosed with PCOS :)

kaylsd · 10/06/2021 19:31

@minthumbugs

So sorry about the BFN *@Veronika13*, it's really emotional and as everyone has said sometimes some months just hit you a lot harder than others. I hope you're ok. X

@PaleGreenAndBrightOrange getting your fertility checks is a big step so it's only natural to feel emotional about that. That's annoying about being forced into a month off but as you say it might be a big help! A month to DTD just for the fun of it can't harm your relationship Wink and gives you a little bit of time to reset. And you never know, stranger things have happened and you could ovulate slightly earlier or later than normal anyway and get a wee surprise!

@kaylsd every three years?! I did not expect that. Shows how much work goes into being a nurse and shows how high the standards are doesn't it. I have to say I have only ever encountered maybe one or two nurses who weren't absolute angels. CD35, not the longest yet there's still plenty time for you ;) have you ovulated do you think? Or are you just chilling out waiting for the fertility fairies to tell you what's happening in July? I'm visiting family just now for a wee break, it's been brill to be away from home for the first time and just be out of normal routine! X

@minthumbugs I am so sorry that I've only just seen this and just seen you post since, I know nothing what I'm going to say is going to make you feel better, I know you carried your baby for a little time but they will be loved for a life time regardless of them being an angel baby, we are here for you when you are wanting to talk and feel up to talking! But it's okay also to take time out for your recovery process, I've nursed ladies before with ectopic pregnancies so I can only imagine what you are going through, you are not alone on this journey, we are all here when you are ready 💖
soontobeamama · 10/06/2021 19:31

Oh @minthumbugs I'm so very sorry, that's awful news. Hope you are as well as you can be and are being looked after. Sending love xx

kaylsd · 10/06/2021 19:27

@PaleGreenAndBrightOrange good luck with your appointment sweetheart keep us posted with how you get on 💖

I can't even imagine what you're going through @minthumbugs. I don't really know the best way to support you but I will do anything in my power. I am so so sorry for your loss. 💔

Hey ladies thought I'd let you know it's not been a good outcome for me. Bad news, it's ectopic 😢Xxx

So exciting! @Halpmer Yes I've had exams all week and running a whole school themed week next week so it's all chaos. Glad all going well xxx

Halpmer · 10/06/2021 16:50

@CycloGoose great, had the 12 week scan a couple of weeks ago and all looking fine. Little one was wriggling around and giving us a wave. Sickness and nausea has died down (seemingly, although I'm suspicious of it's absence). Finding being back at school DRAINING after the lovely week off. The heat and the students and my fatigue are proving quite challenging haha.

Awww thank you @Halpmer how are you getting on?

@Veronika13 your clinic sounds great. Really good luck xxx high amh could be pcos related so hopefully treatable xxx

Halpmer · 10/06/2021 15:16

@CycloGoose how did I miss your BFP?! I've just tracked back through posts! Congratulations and hope all is well at your 6 week scan!

justwant2beamum · 09/06/2021 10:39

@Veronika13 really sorry to hear that but it sounds like you have excellent care, much better than here in the Uk! I have every faith they will help you get your little one ✨

Veronika13 · 09/06/2021 07:05

Thanks everyone, I went to see a GP specialising in fertility and she said my AMH levels of 69 are realllly high.

Even though I've been trying for 4 months she's referred me to fertility clinic (with my partner so he can get checked too). Never in a million years thought I would be at fertility clinic, but here I am 🤷‍♀️😀

I'm just focusing on the positives and being grateful at the healthcare system here in Australia, I choose any specialist I want, they help straight away without waiting times, never ever fob me off, they did my AMH levels and 21 day bloods all for free, before I even started trying ttc. I feel like I'm in good hands x

minthumbugs · 08/06/2021 20:00

Awww @Bookbug92 that is such unfortunate timing, how frustrating. I really hope they can squeeze you in for a cancellation space!

Bookbug92 · 08/06/2021 19:57

I'm really sorry to hear about your BFN @Veronika13, it can be so hard. Sending you lots of virtual hugs x

I came on 10 days earlier than I usually do so my HyCoSy has been cancelled 😩 So typical of my body to have my first ever 28 day cycle the month of the HyCoSy. I'm trying to look to the positive that maybe I'll magically have regular 28 day cycles now but somehow I doubt that!

I'm just waiting to hear if they have any cancellations for Friday's clinic, if not I have to wait until at least July 🤞🏻
