Sorry to change topic a bit but has anyone had 3 day bloods? I've had mine but I don't know what results should be? Gp receptionist just said "all fine" but tbh I don't trust them, so I've got a copy of the results, I'm worried in case some are borderline or not as good as they should be. Can anyone help?

@Bookbug92

Hi ladies, I was wondering if I could join too? (There seems to be lots of baby dust floating around in this thread! 😉) I'm on cycle 11 TTC #1 but as my cycles are irregular we've actually been trying since last April. All my blood tests have come back normal as has my OH's SA so I'm booked in for a HyCoSy later this month - unless I finally get a BFP first!
Hey and welcome hunny! I know right, feel like this is a inbetweeners phrase of being knee deep in baby dust this month on here, on fire 🔥! Your one month in front of me! I'm also irregular in cycles so it's a tricky one, luckily to hear though your results have come back okay :) and partners too! Have you had a USS to check if everything's okay? Welcome to the clang, I feel like I'm one of the OGs, here for the long run and a long ride 🍆😉🙊

@CycloGoose

Welcome to the wild world *@purpleskyssssss* !! Oooh I hadn't heard about grapefruit juice but you just reminded me that I did have pomegranate juice when I had my MC and also this time!

@kaylsd you proper crack me up! Loving the photo though I'm pretty sure you had sunburn the last time we spoke :D Hope you are feeling alright. Not long til first appointment. I'm definitely praying that you'll be one of those people who turn up for the appointment pregnant - stranger things have happened. Any news on getting a transfer at work? xxx

The sunburn calmed down! Ended up having abit of a nice brown glow in the end with just terrible strap line vibes what I've still got going off right now 🙈 in terms of work sweet they've just had a cohort of newly qualified nurses in the area so their staff ratio vacancy is full! Which is annoying BUT I've had a meeting with my management which I also wrote down in emails on my feelings to how they've been treating myself and the team and since then I've not been moved doing the tour de Yorkshire in other places and it's been quite pleasant! They are even giving me time paid to attend my fertility appointment which I find quite sweet of them as I know I wouldn't get the same back at the hospital.. it's swings and roundabouts in nursing it really is 🙈🙈🙈 so at the moment works tolerable, hard at times but tolerable, I'm just stalking the Jobs site considering moving trusts to try a new challenge that way :) how's things been for you at work? Xx

[quote purpleskyssssss]@kaylsd here here!! I feel the same when people say that 🤣

Very stressful I didn't realise they was so much to ttc! But feel as each month passes I am getting more knowledgable! How long have you been ttc for? [/quote]
I found by like month 6 I was like a fixture of knowledge from endless MN thread reading and dr google, who knows I could even write myself a little guide of tips for some 🤣🙈 for me sweet I've been trying coming up to 10 month 😳 oh wow times flown when I've just wrote that! I've been recently diagnosed with PCOS and we may have male infertility factor too (were a corking pair between us) waiting for our first fertility appointment from NHS in July :) I've took a step back from tracking ect in TTC times due to my hide and seek cycles until we know our treatment path I'm gonna save myself from the peeing on a stick addiction I once had 🙈

@kaylsd ⛲🌊💦💧 dive in!!!

@Kitty0389 thinking of you ❤️

@purpleskyssssss hi, good luck! It's crazy everything you end up learning along the way. This thread is brilliant for asking questions and sharing info though so I'm sure if you need anything there will always be someone here who knows or has been through something similar at least. Hope your journey isn't too much longer!

@purpleskyssssss

Hi everyone, could I join this group please - currently CD13 month 7 of ttc #1, currently doing SMEP plan, grapefruit juice, testing ovulation and the usual vitamins. I have started temping this month aswell so trying to get my head around that

I was meant to be having a 'relaxed' month this month but I'm sure as we all know that's a lot harder said then done 🤣

Hey there lovely lady and welcome! you are so right that it's so easier said than done to relax, I swear if I hear anyone tell me if you just relax it'll happen I may just sucker punch them in the eye 👀 how are you finding things so far? :)
kaylsd · 03/06/2021 12:21

@Kitty0389 I'm so sorry for you to go through what you have done, sending you lots of hugs over 💖💖 we are here for you if you need to talk to anyone xxx

No problem @Kitty0389 it's a horrible experience. I stepped away too. Always here if you need us. I'm only ever an @ sign away. Lots of love. Xxx

Kitty0389 · 03/06/2021 09:23

@CycloGoose pretty sure it's AF - lines haven't darkened since Monday, AF cramps, spotting like I usually get the day before AF and start of endometriosis pains I usually get along with AF... I think I might step away to process for a bit and come back when I've sorted my brain out a bit :-) thanks for all the lovely messages.

Nooooo @Kitty0389 I'm so incredibly sorry to hear that. Is it definitely AF? Speak to your GP if you think it might help.

Kitty0389 · 03/06/2021 08:36

@kaylsd @CycloGoose @minthumbugs Back to earth with an almighty crash - AF has just showed up so looks like it was a chemical for me. Hope everyone else is luckier this month

soontobeamama · 02/06/2021 21:22

18 weeks!! Omg that's nuts @els10 I can barely believe we've been on Mumsnet that long let alone one of our grads being that far along! I'm so glad you're here to keep us posted and to check in on us. I'm so excited for you! Will you let us know? I'm sorry you had to go through complications and I hope it's all feeling a bit smoother now xxxx
