Sorry I haven't been around today. DH took me out for a lovely meal. We spent a lovely dinner not talking abt ttc or babies. It was a fab evening. I am feeling strange. No AF cramps. No AF. No spotting even. Horny as hell! So badly want to have a shag.

Took a test and didn't expect it to be anything but a bfn. Just wondering why I am so late. This is very late for me. Just hope it starts tomorrow so we can get started on cycle 10!

res it's awful hearing or reading about those pregnancy announcements. I thought I'd be used to it after hearing 5 but the 6th one got me even harder and felt like a punch and kick when you are at your lowest point.

thingy hopefully you never have to use that pot of money and it happens soon for you.

fatas hope you find out soon. Good luck for tomorrow.

winkle and when hope you keep filling up with sperm fluids Wink

kittykatsforever · 03/02/2013 07:40

Well done when!!! The times I've fallen pregnant I've dtd before Smile aswell so I think it is those few days before aswell as at time of it give you a really good shot!
Winkle I want you on our thread aswell and it will happen we will all be one again soon!
Red, glad you had a nice evening and sorry for bfn, it's so frustrating when you don't know what going on with your cycles

Hello everyone, hope you're all ok. I might lurk on this thread for a while if that's ok. I was on the BFP in 2012 thread (under the name of yikesherewego) and managed to get a BFP in Nov but had a TFMR in Jan as the baby had chromosome abnormalities and heart problems. So back TTC again. Would be good to have some company of familiar 'faces'!

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHopeful · 03/02/2013 09:21

Hi someday (aka yikes) I remember you. It's good to see you again but I'm so sorry it's because of such an awful reason.

How are you doing?

Thingymajigs · 03/02/2013 09:30

Hi someday. Smile
I've heard so many conflicting things about IUI's res but I think it'll be our only option if it gets to that point because IVF is completely out of our reach in financial terms. I'll feel better to have that money there just in case. Far too early to worry about that though.
red I don't know whether to wish AF stays away for you or not. It must be so frustrating waiting for AF after BFN's but I've got my fingers crossed for you.
Hope everything goes well today fatas

Hi yikes sorry to see you back here Sad remember you from the 2012 thread. Sorry for what you are going through.

No sign of AF - 3 days late now.

fatasbutter · 03/02/2013 11:29

Hello yikes - sorry to hear about what an awful time you and your do have been going through :-(
But welcome back...

Well my hormone levels are still rising so they think it might be an ectopic possibly - have to go in and be poked and prodded and have 'more investigations' - great Hmm

Thingymajigs · 03/02/2013 12:12

So sorry fatas. Sad Any ideas on what these investigations are and when they will happen? The waiting must be awful.

kittykatsforever · 03/02/2013 12:15

Hi yikes, I'm so sorry you've been through such a rough ride Sad
And fatas, what were your rises if you don't mind me asking? Do you know what they were ?
Red- is there no sign at all? What happened with previous spotting? Has it completely gone?

twinklestar2 · 03/02/2013 13:11

Hi someday, I remember you. Sorry to see you back and hope your stay isn't long.

Red - what cd are you on?

weechops · 03/02/2013 13:26

Hi someday I remember you too. So sorry to see you back here again.

Dh got word of a job near home today! It might amount to nothing, but just the possibility of him being home every night has cheered md up.

twinklestar2 · 03/02/2013 13:48

Wee - fingers crossed for OH's job.

Red - I don't know what's going on, but I do know those long cycles where you don't know what's going on are so annoying :( I've been there.

kittykatsforever · 03/02/2013 13:48

Well red I know we all talk about implantation and I know you'll probably think well its not that but you never know, I had it with dd and it was just 1-2 days very light and majority brown, fx it is as it wouldn't be unusual to still take another day or 2 to show up on a test if it was?!?
Fx for mr weechops that would be lovely for you!!

RedRobin1 · 03/02/2013 15:16

Will go to docs if AF doesn't start by Wednesday.

Tmi alert-I have very dry brown blood. It's not even liquid or wet just dry pasty stuff. It's less than a drop a day.

kitty I wish you are right but I have a feeling she's just around the corner and will come the minute I get my hopes up.

OP posts:
WhenSheWasBadSheWasHopeful · 03/02/2013 16:40

red it all sounds a big odd. Hope you find out what is going on soon.

weechops the possible new job for your dh sounds interesting.

twinkle are you busy dtd?

fatas thinking of you.

The opks were still positive this morning but have just gone negative.

It's a good job we dtd yesterday as I have some horrible virus today. Not feeling too optimistic for this month as I am sick and only managed to get 3 shags in before ov (on cd 11, cd 14 and cd 15). Ov expected tomorrow cd 17.

Will try and get a few post ov shags in once the illness has cleared up.

Hope everyone has had a good weekend.

fatasbutter · 03/02/2013 16:55

Ok after a brief episode of 'its an ectopic' (after the on call dr scanned me) the consultant came in and saw me and scanned me again and said doesn't think it's ectopic. More likely blighted ovum but sac has grown in 3 days so will be rescanned in a week.

Am actually relieved! Thought I was going to have to have my ovary/tube removed for a minute! A blighted ovum seems like a walk in the park compared with that (hopefully!!) so it's still a waiting game for now Hmm

Sorry to hear you're not well when - and red hang in there, have got my fx for you as you never know...

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHopeful · 03/02/2013 17:28

fatas that's good news. I never thought I would congratulate someone on having a blighted ovum at least it's better than an ectopic. Hope you are getting well looked after and can get back on the ttc bus asap.

I just have a bit of a bug, should be over it soon.

fatasbutter · 03/02/2013 17:34

Thanks when. Actually I am not being looked after at all! DH has decided his sore back trumps my gynae problems and has taken up residence on the sofa. Feeling really fed up and wish I had relatives near by who could come and look after me (I only want someone to be nice and make me a cuppa!!) but DH is being a shithead and I'm cross with him.

AF has finally arrived. Painful as hell, but glad it's started finally so I can move on.

fatas glad your not having an ectopic. Men are weird when it comes to ttc and don't really understand the emotional trauma we go through. Hope Dh comes around soon and looks after you x

Hi red I can't remember if you're seeing a doctor at the moment but do you think it might be worth keeping a diary of how af is in the days leading up to it, like what you've said about consistency/colour etc. it might help them with helping you to get pg if you are seeing someone, or do in the future? I'm sorry af got you. I was lurking with my fingers crossed for you.
