Thanks so much @Eka94

Our bodies like to keep us guessing don't they?!

Sending you lots of luck too Flowers

Eka94 · 23/11/2022 17:10

Hey @monsteramunch ! Great that you’ve got the smiley! Sounds like you will ovulate tomorrow. Just starting my testing this month , I’m day 13 today and negative so far but I got a positive OPK last month at CD18 so I’m not expecting it yet. Good luck for this month!

monsteramunch · 23/11/2022 13:35

How is everyone feeling today?

I've got from empty circles CD12 and CD13 to a static smiley today (CD14) so any positive vibes are very welcome!

Have DTD today and will make sure we do so the next two days as well, as I think the test result means I'm surging today so ovulation will be tomorrow?

Usually CD16-18 I get my static smiley so I'm glad I'm digital testing or I would have missed this month's best days!

@MrsCristianoX well if you’re never late hopefully this is a great sign!!

MrsCristianoX · 22/11/2022 07:54

@Hjudge56 I'm never late. I have sometimes come on early but not late. That's what's so weird but I'll leave it to Thursday to test again if AF hasn't shown. I feel ok though but I've been laying around for 3 days. Back at work til Thursday now

Hjudge56 · 22/11/2022 07:44

@MrsCristianoX if you need help having a look at the test you know I’m here! Do your periods usually work like clockwork? I didn’t get a readable faint line until the evening after AF was due!

MrsCristianoX · 21/11/2022 21:20

@Hjudge56 many faint ones..no actual ones🙄 💯 thought period due today like had every symptom but still waiting..maybe a chemical has slowed it down?

Hjudge56 · 21/11/2022 20:51

Any faint lines @MrsCristianoX ? 🤞🏼

Hjudge56 · 19/11/2022 16:49

@MrsCristianoX well fingers crossed the faint line is the start! I didn’t get a faint line fill 12-13dpo!

MrsCristianoX · 19/11/2022 16:32

@Hjudge56 not great. Really exhausted but I've had a few tough work days. Did an early response clear blue in work yesterday at break (10dpo?) and ended up with a vvvfl instantly but it disappeared in a few hours randomly

Hjudge56 · 19/11/2022 16:25

@MrsCristianoX 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼. How are you feeling ?

MrsCristianoX · 19/11/2022 13:22

@Hjudge56 oh don't even. I'm trying to hold off til tomorrow

Hjudge56 · 19/11/2022 06:55

Is today test day @MrsCristianoX ? 🤞🏼

Hjudge56 · 18/11/2022 13:27

@MamaSJ15 thats okay! Those cheapies are buggers aren’t they! Mine wasn’t really progressing but FRER was. Cheapie now looks like this so think we’re all good!

@MrsCristianoX how are you feeling?

@Hjudge56 🙈🙈 I'm so sorry I missed this whole thing!! But I have seen you over at the new thread. But congrats again!
My cheapie was really light compared to FRER too, will show you my tests now. These were taken on the same day, and my tests always seemed stronger in the evening rather than morning.

Yesterday was a day full of cramping and today I have had x1 episode of brown mucous spotting.
Today we also had our initial fertility appointment, they took bloods and completed a TVUS, which suggested the spotting today was AF as my endometrium was thin and in fitting with CD1.
Overall, the outcome was that I need to get my BMI from 34.8 to below 30 to be prescribed any ovulation induction.
In the meantime they’re going to send out appointments for OH to produce his sample and for me to have a HSG.
I guess we have to see how it goes for now. I discussed this with one of my good friends who went through similar a few years ago and she was very positive about HSG as they conceived their miracle rainbow that very cycle following HSG.
Has anyone had any experiences?

Ncl31 · 16/11/2022 14:40

@Hjudge56 thank you xx

Ive just started taking vitamin C and b complex too. Hopefully something will help with it all

Hjudge56 · 16/11/2022 14:27

@Ncl31 well I’m sending lots of baby dust your way and praying you get some answers tomorrow xx

Ncl31 · 16/11/2022 12:43

I’ve not spoken to the GP this time because last time it happened they said they weren’t concerned because I’d still had more than 4 periods in a 12 month period.
I work closely with gynaecologists so have spoken to one of them and he said to explain to the fertility guys, his prediction is I will be put onto clomid.
Who knows, hopefully I will get some answers tomorrow or AF will arrive… I’m still cramping but no AF yet x

Hjudge56 · 16/11/2022 11:34

@Ncl31 thank you! Yes my lines have got a tad darker this morning and very vivid so I am quite confident! I’m 6 days late too which never happens!

CD58!? Have you spoken to your doctor? Are your periods usually irregular? So sorry you’re in limbo I can imagine it’s an emotional rollercoaster.

Ncl31 · 16/11/2022 09:51

massive congratulations @Hjudge56 definitely looks positive to me! How exciting, fingers crossed for you it all progresses well.

CD58 for my today and still not AF or BFP.
I know I’m totally out this cycle but just want AF to arrive so we can try again.
I have woken up with mild cramping this morning so hoping this is AF on the way.
we have our fertility initial appointment tomorrow afternoon. I’m super nervous, I know it’s going to be lots of paperwork to fill in and very little of anything else but a big thing all the same.

Hjudge56 · 16/11/2022 09:45

@alwaysseeingstars thank you so much! I’ve done another FRER this morning and the line is slightly stronger than yesterday so I am feeling more positive. How far along are you now?

alwaysseeingstars · 16/11/2022 08:12

@Hjudge56 huge congratulations!! 😍

MrsCristianoX · 15/11/2022 17:14

@Hjudge56 you defo didn't mess up with the fertilily !! I'm feeling a bit ugh. Like hungry but don't know what to eat. And sweaty again

Hjudge56 · 15/11/2022 17:01

@Eka94 thank you for your reassurance! Still can’t quite believe it!
