You ladies will understand how exciting a little line can be.... Its not the really exciting kind - but it's the first time an opk strip has given me a second line at all since my mc. (7 weeks ago)
Finally a chance of ovulation!
Should it get stronger than this to count as a peak?
Never used these before.

@MrsCristianoX december isn’t far now, I hope the bloods tell you what you need to know x

MrsCristianoX · 30/10/2022 14:28

@Everythingzrosie I'm in NI though and our government has just stopped 🤷‍♀️ maybe pharmacies in England are better equipped. CD4 here but still can't ttc until December, C'mon bloods to your thing

Everythingzrosie · 30/10/2022 14:23

@MrsCristianoX ah well thank you for the advice it’s helpful, so I may as well ask to speak to the gp so they can look into my ear then 😂 if you don’t have the equipment (damn you penny pinching government) I don’t know if it’s a middle or inner ear infection. I’ve had it 7 days now and that’s enough for me to see if it’s going to heal on its own. It’s not so time to ask for help x

MrsCristianoX · 30/10/2022 14:06

@Everythingzrosie yep. I've been looking into peoples throats with my iTorch on too many occasions. Give us the tools government 😂 I want an otoscope for ears!!

Everythingzrosie · 30/10/2022 13:48

@MrsCristianoX Ah thank you x it’s not painful, more annoying and itching, feels ‘full’ and I feel like I’m hearing echos rather than sound. The dizzy feeling is off and on. Are you a pharmacist? X

MrsCristianoX · 30/10/2022 13:20

@Everythingzrosie if someone came into my pharmacy with a loss of hearing and feeling dizzy I'd be recommending a doctor apt..sorry lovely 😕 that's not a waste of a doctors time and you've been feeling dizzy for a good few days now. Have you pain? Xx (sorry I wish I could switch my brain off on a Sunday, ignore me if you want 😅)

Everythingzrosie · 30/10/2022 12:21

Hello everyone xx

so my dizzy feeling is an ear infection 😩 I feel drunk, the room spins, I get popping and squelch feeling in my ear. I’ve yet to see a gp because I feel that’s a waste of an appointment. So I’m suffering in one ear silence 😒 will go to the pharmacy tomorrow.
anyway cd 6 and month 3 since MMC….

@TheBirdintheCave i didn’t realise that either!! Does it just effect the quality or ruin them completely?

HJA87 · 30/10/2022 10:07

@TheBirdintheCave is that right?!😩I didn’t realise it affected sperm like that. We haven’t had it yet this year but it’s inevitable with the little one in nursery 😔

TheBirdintheCave · 30/10/2022 08:44

@Bubblesandballoons No bfp before Christmas for me unfortunately :( My husband's sperm are all dead for three months post Covid now.

Bubblesandballoons · 30/10/2022 06:20

@MrsCristianoX yeah it would be lovely to see a run of bfps on here up to Christmas 🤞🏻

MrsCristianoX · 29/10/2022 22:09

@Bubblesandballoons same for everyone here 😘 Anytime before new year would be great 👍🏼😂

Bubblesandballoons · 29/10/2022 22:06

@MrsCristianoX ah no, but yay to December. I really hope you get your little Christmas miracle xx

MrsCristianoX · 29/10/2022 21:58

@Bubblesandballoons yea I'm ok. CD3 ugh so another month on the bench. I'm so excited for December though xx

Bubblesandballoons · 29/10/2022 21:44

@MrsCristianoX it’s ok, I had to have both, so needed the full bladder to start with. How are you doing?

MrsCristianoX · 29/10/2022 21:10

@Bubblesandballoons oops sorry for the hydration advice then..wand scanner does not like that 😅

Bubblesandballoons · 29/10/2022 13:52

@MrsCristianoX thanks, as I suspected it’s all good, but at least it’s crossed off the potential issue list.
@ROZRAXthanks, hope you get answers soon.

Sorry I have been quiet the last few days, suddenly got anxious about this ultrasound as the last one was where I found out the baby had gone. Thankfully the ladies doing it were lovely and made it as ok an experience of having a wand shoved up you can be 😂. No bloods today and said if I haven’t heard in two weeks to chase them up as I haven’t got a follow up appt. Never any rush it seems. On the plus side I have finally had a normal period, so hopefully my body is back in sync again 🤞🏻🤞🏻.

@emhope they will fluctuate but normally before and after ovulation there is about a 0.5c difference so you will see a pattern when you do it over both phases 😊 x

@FfayeN thanks 😊 I’ve only done maybe a week of BBT and didn’t start until after ovulation so results so far make no sense to me 😆 started at 36.9 and then kept dropping over a few days down to 36.5, then yesterday and today gone back up to 37. I did have a few gins last night though! Think you are right that it will help the 2WW as gives me something to do each day.

@emhope I'm glad you're feeling in a more positive place. I actually found BBT really helped with my anxiety and helped me not to POAS super early. Hoping it helps you too ☺️. It just added some structure to my whole cycle rather than the TWW literally being two weeks of waiting! I hope it has the same positive result for you too

Hi again everyone. Sorry went a bit quiet the last week after my message…appreciate all the responses. Was feeling so annoyed with life and TTC that couldn’t even bring myself to look on mumsnet. I’ve had a good talk with myself though the last couple of days 😆 feeling better now and will try and have more positive thoughts this next cycle. Decided I think I will bring back the OPK’s and I’ve started tracking BBT! Come on BFP!!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻
Hope everyone is doing ok, any big news I’ve missed?!

ROZRAX · 29/10/2022 08:43

@FfayeN Thank you

@Bubblesandballoons Thinking if you, hope you get some reassuring answers

MrsCristianoX · 29/10/2022 08:33

@Bubblesandballoons good luck today xx
