TTC No.17 - Heres hoping for a very fertile New Year!

(((ernest))) - I'm not surprised your head is exploding. Agree with the others that waiting a few days and testing again would be a good idea. If no joy perhaps make an appt to discuss with your gp.

Munnzie - not sure I know for definite about cervix position but mine is hidden (DH calls it "secret cervix") and that didn't make any difference to me getting pg before. Just means I have to have the really long nasty metal thing when I go for a smear .

Good luck for whenever you choose to bd BellaLasagne

CD34 here and 13dpo (I think). Used to have a 35 days cycle but for the last three it's been getting longer and last month was 42 so no idea when AF due. Still, off on holiday tomorrow and don't know the spanish for HPT so will just have to wait and see what happens. If no AF by the time we get back I will be desperate to test!

ok girls I have a question, I don't know if you can help, or if i'll just need to wait for jeds/hest to come back over as a resident MV/HCP)

my Cervix sits to the left, or was it right? (ponders that thought) anyhow it sits slightly to one side, would this effect our TTC plans at all? I don't think it would do but am just wondering.

BL - yes they need to be the same strenght in coulor as it were. Just keep testin till that's what you see.

ern - ((hugs)) sorry about that hon, have yo had any thyroid probs in the past? Would really go with hula's suggestion, and sit tight until you can get another test and try again. how long did you leave it b4 u looked again?

(((hugs)))ernest. Not sure what to suggest other than trying to test again in a day or two if still feeling the same, or asking the GP to do a test for you? Lots of sympathies in the mean time.

Hi all, not really been around much lately but congratulations to mp (& anyone else?) & hope you feel better/ get some clearer answers jeddah. Hardly a great offer increasing your chances from 2 pc to 7 pc for a mere 4 grand. very sorry.

Guys, any comfort or consolation pls sling my way. My head is going to explode I think. OK, so AF was due last Mondat. Really thought I was pg, did test bfn. Af finally came eve of 3rd day. But was v. light. vv light. Still have pg symptoms, but also have toatlly ditched booze. Also read that thyroid probs can casue lighter periods. So now I'm having these symptoms that could potentially be attributable to either pg, or thyroid, or alcohol withdrawal (not all). My breasts hurt (sometimes). I'm waking up in the night for a wee, I'm incredibly thirsty. I'm v. tired (even going to bed at 9.30 & getting up at 8 still knackered. Im my prev pg thirst & tiredness were the 2 main symptoms.

But done another test & got bfn. But then looked at it later & it was pos, but I know you shouldn't look after 'cod they can change, but it has nevertheless thrown me up in the air again. I haven't got a chemist near me so can't just dive out & get more tests. I'm getting fed up. Any thoughts anyone> Sorry to go on.

I think for a positive OV on an OPK both lines should be at least the same shade? Maybe test first thing and then see what it says???

Help girls!

I'm using OPKs this month and am on cd15. I started testing on cd11 (for a 30 day cycle expecting to ov about cd16). On cds 11, 12, 13, 14 I had hardly any line at all, I had to squint and probably imagined a line. This morning I had a feint line but nowhere near the sample line in darkness. The instructions say to wait until the line is almost like the sample line.

I've had the odd mittlescmertz twinge and CM yesterday changed to wet (so sorry if you're eating lunch!! )

The big question is, bearing in mind that dh probably has a low count so we should only do it every other day, do we go for tonight or wait until I get a darker line on the OPK and possible risk missing the big O according to the OPK??

BLxx

Jeddah,from what I can remember,dh took Zinc,vitamin C & possibly vitamin D too.I understand that it takes 70 days for sperm to be manufactured & to mature,as after the poor sample,we were asked if dh had been ill or under stress 70 days prior to the test.

If it helps,I took Evening primrose oil & seaweed capsules which contain zinc in the few months before my 1st 2 pregnancies,as well as having acupuncture.

Wishing you loads of luck.If I can help anymore,please let me know.
Love
Mirage

sorry to be a pain. but what does a temp chart look like if you aint pg after ov?

OI!! MUNNZIEB hehe.love your style. i take your nomition and i am going to try my HHHHHardest to honour it hen.xx

wow!!!! MP. thank you so much hen.Thats going to give me a fair idea.
I am beginning to think that b/feeding is kind of interfeering somehow.especially that i still b/f at night.not so much during day but at night 1 or 2 times.and that may just f* everything up.excuse my language. any opinions anyone on this? would be greatly appreciated.

How about that? what do you think of that?

Too much prolactin. You might miss a period (or more than one) if your brain is producing an abnormally high level of the hormone prolactin. A woman's body usually makes prolactin when she's breastfeeding, which is why menstruation generally stops at this time. If this is what's happening to you, you may notice a milky discharge from your nipples. This condition can usually be treated with medication.

I am just getting at the moment a very yellowy discharge.

can one of your pregnant email her temp chart pls? i would just like to compare with mine and see what a pg chart is supposed to look like.thanks.i bet you i am going to bleed in the next 5 days.hope nothing wrong with me.dp was saying that (because i did 2 clearblue neg and a FR neg) mayb b/feeding may interact with the test and giv a false result? i doubt it somehow.i think we have hallucinated with the 'answer' tests.well, next tuesday seeing doc who may shed light on the pb.

sorry hula for AF

Hi everyone, I'm relatively new to this thread, posted a couple of times. Feeling low today, Due yesterday, just done a test (should have waited I know) negative. Doesn't seem fair. Still always next month

well girls I DO WANT TO BEST THE NEXT ONE!!!!.i did a first response test yesterday and was a bfn.still no af.now CD35.mayb a late cycle for me.can you have a cycle without af? tonight i will email my temp and mayb someone can have a look?

Sorry to hear AF arrived hula, It really is a pain in the as%!!!

O i'm down with a chest infection and laringitis (spelling) and i'm on antibiotics and a medicine, will this effect my persona?? Should have a test to do today (saved my mornings wee) I'm on CD6 and i really hope it doesnt effect using the persona.. Can anyone help ???

The lady in the chemist said the medicine will effect the pill (if your taking it) NO I'M TRYING TO GET UP THE DUFF WOMEN!!! but i did'nt tell her that..

I also said to the doc about my AF and she said that irregular af is when you have bleeding every couple of days and that with having a d&C my af could be like that for a while.. O GREAT WHY DONT YOU PUT ME IN A CONVENT NOW!!!

Ya spend year trying NOT to get PG and when ya want ta ya can't !!!..

O well not have a great start but i have found a choc bar in the drawer ha ha!!! that will keep the stess at bay..

too hungover to write much but - sorry about AF Hula

and

(((jeddah))) (that's all I can manage at the moment but just wanted you to know that I am thinking about you a lot)

I agree - need a new thread. Even on broadband it takes a while!

I know it goes so quick when you're having all that fun!

I think we need to start a new thread soon cos this one's takin ages to load on dial up... talkin of which.......

OI COCKENZIE - i'm nominating you as the most probable person to get a BFP to start the new thread, (then lurk and spread the dust about) have you tested yet or did you decide to wait?

Yes, OV has moved a bit, and FF not detected it past two months. OPKs used this month and they went +ve on CD15.

Can't quite believe we are on month 6 already.

sorry about AF Hula, set your sights on a spring baby! I'm assumin (if I'm readin this right u OV around day 15??)

CD 9 here and a big red light on my persona, no O yet thou.

AF arrived first thing this morning

Month 5's chart

So, CD1 of month 6 for me.
