Sorry I'm no help @H0peing should probably know more about this kind of stuff than I do to be honest.

Annny27 · 20/08/2021 10:09

@h0peing i took it 3 days after when I was SURE I had ovulated e.g. cm changed, slightly sore boobs etc

@babyghirl any sign of AF?

@kiwi17 I think I am about cd13....or 14 haha. Not checked the apps 😂

@HOpeing
Maybe phone your doc again this morning and c what they say I have heard of people taking it from cd21 aswell 💚

H0peing · 20/08/2021 08:55

I've just spoken to my doctor again who now has the letter from the gynaecologist. She said that in the letter from the gynaecologist it states to take 400mg pessaries twice per day from CD15, which was yesterday and just so happens to be when I had a peak smiley face on my Clearblue pink ovulation kit. I'm now a bit confused because the gynaecologist told me to take the pessaries after my peak smiley face this month because my last bleed was a miscarriage and I read online that it's usually 2-4 days after ovulation to take pessaries.

Has anyone else been prescribed progesterone pessaries after ovulation? Just wondering if anyone else knows how many days after my peak day I should take them. I'm a bit concerned about taking the pessary too early and making things worse as I know that when I was on the progesterone only pill in the past it stopped me from getting pregnant! X

Fingers crossed it was worth the effort kiwi17.

Thanks PeanuttyButter.

I'm not really sure why the overwhelm. I think there are lots of decisions to make here, and we came straight back from holiday into a really busy week of intensive swimming for the boys and grandparents visiting. We are also away again this weekend.

PeanuttyButter · 20/08/2021 07:09

@miscarriage39 it's often hard to jump back in once a certain times gone by isn't it. Don't feel overwhelmed we are all in the same boat so to speak. X

Babyghirl · 19/08/2021 22:50

@miscarriage39
Awwwww so good to hear from you, big hugs.

kiwi17 · 19/08/2021 21:09

Oh no @Miscarriage39 why so overwhelmed? Probably ovulation day today but turns out we've now done it 6 days in a row so tonight was hard work right when it mattered 😂

Miscarriage39 · 19/08/2021 20:32

Hi, I've not been on here in a while. We went away for a week and I've been feeling pretty overwhelmed since coming back.

Welcome to all the newbies, although I am sorry you find yourselves here. I hope the fabulous support on here helps you all through this horrible spell.

Fingers crossed you're not out PeanuttyButter.

H0peing · 19/08/2021 15:16

@PeanuttyButter I hope you're not out for this month! Xx

H0peing · 19/08/2021 15:11

@Babyghirl that is soooo sweet of him!Smile xxxxx

PeanuttyButter · 19/08/2021 12:38

Hope everyone is having a good day so far.
Pre AF spotting has starting with the usual cramping so looks like I'm out this month. Least I can have a glass of something at the weekend

Babyghirl · 19/08/2021 10:06

@Bundaberg84
Anything is worth a try, I just take the relax approach and don't stress out.

Babyghirl · 19/08/2021 09:49
This song brought a tear to my eyes better half sent me it yesterday and said its my song. 💚
Bundaberg84 · 19/08/2021 09:33

@EmiGoiko and @Babyghirl I know! But it seemed to have done the trick last time, so I might give it another go.

EmiGoiko · 18/08/2021 19:36

@kiwi17 fingers crossed this is your month, sounds like you need to get another ride in if you can then! Hope you enjoy your holiday, hopefully a chance to relax.

@Bundaberg84 welcome and sorry to hear about your losses. A loss at any stage Is heart breaking. Also have to agree the SMEP is exhausting!!!

EmiGoiko · 18/08/2021 19:31

@Babyghirl sorry AF feels like she is coming, glad you have am appointment though and not that long to wait!

EmiGoiko · 18/08/2021 19:30

@Annny27 and @H0peing good for you trying to be relaxed about it. Anything that takes the pressure off is good. Have to say I have also used the 'don't worry about me' tactic to get the DH to DTD. Whatever works! 🤣

@babyghirl you made me LOL. That's brilliant. We are literally so boring. Tbh the last 6 months we pretty much limit ourselves to the fertile window. Like @PeanuttyButter my husband is too exhausted the rest of the month. Lol.

EmiGoiko · 18/08/2021 19:24

@PeanuttyButter my cycles were messed up after my MMC, definitely shorter. Seemed to get better over time but I've also tried acupuncture and I think it has helped and got my temps up.

PeanuttyButter · 18/08/2021 16:55

Poor DH is done in from FW. Hasn't been interested since haha. We try to get out the bedroom but are limited...livingroom and dining room all in view of the front door and parents are known to pop their head to the window before knocking

Babyghirl · 18/08/2021 16:23

@HOpeing
Dtd gets less romantic when ttc lol.
@Bundaberg84
Horse riding in ovulation week tires u out I love when you can step off the saddle for a while lol.

Bundaberg84 · 18/08/2021 16:00

Thank you all! Appreciate it a lot. Last time I got pregnant we did the SMEP, but it's so exhausting :) We'll see how up to it I'm gonna be in two weeks.

H0peing · 18/08/2021 15:58

@ELM7 How are you and your mum? How many weeks are you now? Sending loads of love Xx

H0peing · 18/08/2021 15:51

@Babyghirl Quickie in the bathroom! That's great!Smile Haven't done that in years lol🤣🤣🤣 He's usually such a gentleman and 'waits' for me whilst DTD so our quickies are one less thing to think about whilst TTC and I think we need to get out of the bedroom a bit more lol Xx

Babyghirl · 18/08/2021 15:13
