Hey girls here's the new thread

Hey Ladies,

Just back from Docs, I wonder why I bother going. She said, 'well at least your af is here now' just try again for next month When I asked about how it had taken so long to show up this time and a time before, she just said 'that's what happens sometimes' What a lot of help that was. She reckons the 'throbbing' in my tummy could well be a hernia, but since i have no pain she reckons it may have just been a delayed heartbeat through my stomach??? No idea, she has a prod about at my belly, but couldnt feel anything 'conclusive'

Anyhoo, Seany sorry the witch got you. Hopefully we will ALL have better luck nect month.
Whitty when are you testing?

whittywantababy6 · 27/04/2009 13:27

Hey all I havent tested Im trying to hold out, my temps are still high...I wanna go see elvis now lol...seany Im sorry af showed...but now you can get your bfp and maybe have a valentines day baby lol ...bubble i hope everything at the hospital goes great only good news....

Bubblebell1 · 27/04/2009 13:26

Seany its awful isnt it. you try and stay positive but each month you get lower and lower. Since my mc in feb ive started spottin pre af too. i dont know what thats about or if it means anything? has yours started since your mc?

We have been trying 6 months now so no where near as long as you and Rtuff! But both my boys were concieved the first cycle. Im worried that something is wrong? can things change so dramatically??

seanybosmummy · 27/04/2009 13:14

awww thanks bubble, it was 31 days so only a day later than usual, it was just the 5 days of spotting that bugged me, but at least now i can move on and try even harder this month.

Hi girls,

i hope it all works out for you bubble,please let us know how you get on at your scan today.

rtuff keeping my fingers crossed for bfps for us all this month

I guess im out for this month as af just arrived heavily - oh well onwards and upwards

OP posts:
Bubblebell1 · 27/04/2009 11:05

Thanks Rtuff. Its just when they arent going + i wonder if im ovulating. especially as i splashed out on a cb digi pack and there is still no sign of a +. There are so many things to worry about. Im getting slightly neurotic.

this month i have a day 21 blood test arranged so i will atleast see if im ovulating! (and then i panic that this month will be anovulatory and a waste of time) god i need to take deep breathes and calm down [nervous smile emotion]

Rtuff · 27/04/2009 09:58

Thanks guys, i've started taking it as of today so hopefully it will help my completely irregular cycles, and hopefully one day may get a BFP along the way...

Bubble
Elvis sounds fab!! and defo worth skipping the tube!!

I spoke to my doc about the OPK's as i've had a couple of months without a +ive and she said they aren't completely reliable so i'd bd anyway just incase....

Bubblebell1 · 27/04/2009 09:30

Rtuff I take agnus castus and it did wonders for my irregular cycles. i take it everyday and i did have a mc in feb. Maybe its linked?? Starting from my next af i will just take it for the first part of my cycle.

Seany Im going with my mum and some friends. There are 5 of us going and we are going to book a limo so we can get drunk before and not have to bother with the tube.

Ive been getting ov pain and ewcm but negatives on opks. Is it posible to still ovulate and never have a +opk?? I think im just panicing now. i dont want anything to be wrong.

seanybosmummy · 27/04/2009 09:25

Bubble takes angus castus and she said she only takes it for the 1st 2 weeks of her cycle. We had a discussion about it yesterday if you want to have a wee read back over the last page or so rtuff xx

OP posts:
seanybosmummy · 27/04/2009 09:23

Thanks rtuff, so sorry af got you. This month will def be your month, im sure of it!!!

Good luck today bubble-let us know how you get on. xx
I think it is def possible that ov is delayed because you havent been feeling very well.
pmsl at the elvis concert-that sounds fun!! Who are you going with?

Whitty how are you today? Have you tested again yet?

How is everyone else doing?

OP posts:
Rtuff · 27/04/2009 09:17

That obviously meant to say "take THIS" not his....

Rtuff · 27/04/2009 09:16

I've been reading into Agnus Castus and i'm just off to buy some, although there does seem to be a general consensus on the web only to take it up to ovulation as it can lead to mc, does anybody take his or heard anything about it??

Bubblebell1 · 27/04/2009 08:22

Morning all!

Rtuff so sorry that af got you! what a witch. I hope that this month is your month

Seany i hope that the spotting stops soon. what a pain.

Whitty i hope the temps are still high and that af stays away for you.

im feeling better today. its cd15 and still not had a +ive on my opks. I have my scan this afternoon and i hope that everything comes back normal. do you think that being under the weather before could of delayed ov.??

Now dont laugh girls. im so excited i have to tell you! i just booked tickets to see Elvis at the o2!! its his original backing singers and band and they project Elv on to the stage like he is really there. Its feb 28th 2010! I really cant wait

Rtuff · 26/04/2009 20:34

Hi evryone,

Seany Sorry to hear about you didn't pass!! Also you sound like your in real limbo land! Why can't AF just show when she's supposed to or not at all, why does she have a habbit of kind of showing but not really or not like normal or really late, arghhh she has such a nak of confusing us!!

Oh and to update everyone AF showed up for me Friday in full force !! So i am now on day 3, surely this is my month it's now officially been 1 year of trying!

I hope everyone else is well??

seanybosmummy · 26/04/2009 19:51

Hi everyone,

So sorry to hear af came ant,but like the others said at least you know now and can start afresh this month.

Im still spotting.its constantly stopping and starting-it is red now but its more mucousy and stretchy and streaky with blood, rather than full on blood, i just dont know whats going on.ive honestly never had anything like it. i wish af would just turn up properly so i can start trying again. Ive also just been getting tiny niggly pains not my usual cramps at all.

Im not going to test bubble, im just going to hold off a few days and see if af arrives in all her glory, and if not the doc said ive to go back and see him again (not that hes very helpful at all)

Your continued high temps sound very positive whitty-are you going to test again?

OP posts:
whittywantababy6 · 26/04/2009 18:06

Yep my temp is higher its 99.0 shocked Im cramping on off not painful...but we will see how are you today bubble

Bubblebell1 · 26/04/2009 15:32

Hey girls!

Ant im sorry that you didnt get your bfp but on the plus side af has finally shown up and you can get on with ttc instead of being in limbo. I hope the AC does the trick and gets you regular again. babydust coming your way for this cycle.

Whitty hope your well. is your temp still up?

Seany how are you today? any sign of AF? are you goin to be testing soon?

whittywantababy6 · 26/04/2009 15:23

hey girlies, Im kinda cheery today....feeling a little over heated though, so since af hasnt shown her face I took advantage of it and me and the mister got kinda busy lol...anywhoo how is everyone today....ant im sorry to hear about Af arriving but I look at it as a start to the new beginning...

Antdamm · 26/04/2009 15:07

Hey ladies,

Well, lo and behold as I hav Doc's appointment tomorrow, guess who showed up?? Thats right the Evil Witch is here, at least she's here now. But (TMI ALERT) when she arrived - this morning- I havent felt like it was a regular visit, I don't feel bleeeugh like I usually do, but the products(ahem) of her visit are thick and dark, like old blood. Very stringy I'd say. (I did warn you)

So, other than that things are good. Going to Doc's tomorrow and definitely getting some agnus castus aswell, see if that helps.

How is everyone else?

Hi girls,

Welllllll i have stopped spotting again wtf??? Oh i give up!! The doc said if af has not arrived prop by next week then ive to go back and get blood test done to check if im pg-lets hope the spotting doesnt reappear!

It sounds like you have some sort of virus bubble because of the cold sore+feeling ill. Don't they say you usually get cold sores when your run down? I hope you feel better soon xx

Is your stomach painful ant? A hernia sounds nasty-poor you x

OP posts:
Bubblebell1 · 25/04/2009 16:50

Whitty hopefully af not showing means a bfp is round the corner.

Ant i just take it every day. i will stop once i get a bfp tho and just continue with the pregnacare.

im on cd13 im waiting for a positive on my opk so i can get busy with dh. This coldsore is huge. really sore and my lip is swollen. i am feelin pretty ill too. i hope that i am better soon. I dont want to miss my chance this month.

Antdamm · 25/04/2009 15:47

Hey ladies,

Still nothing to report. Just waiting til I see the doc. Am going to get some agnus castus next time i'm in town. Otherwise, I might be having ridiculous length cycles forever!!!

Seany - sorry to hear about AF. Once you pass your test(next time obviously) the stress will have disappeared and you will get a BFP. I'm sure of it

Bubble - are you on the two week wait? When do you take agnus castus? Just up to the 2ww??

Weather is a bit rubbish here today, but dull and cloudy. Was supposed to be going to get DS a metal detector and take him to the beach for some 'treasure hunting' but might just leave it for tomorrow. Oh well

After some ridiculous amount of googling by DP and I, they say that my 'thumping' stomach may be a hernia!! Whooopeee

Well, have updated list for all to see
