Katie
I don't want you to be worried reading my info for you.
It was to reassure you tho I worded it wrong.
I do and always have had over pains, especially as I get older!?! I would think it is normal for some women.
Google 'Mittelschmerz' this is a term given to ovulation pains !
Hopefully reassure you a bit xx

flowerbombVR · 12/10/2014 23:09

OV* damn phn Angry

Glad to hear your feeling a bit better and resting MrsE x

Treaclepie19 · 12/10/2014 23:18

Haha thanks sunbathing :)
Got to wait and see what happens tomorrow, if it goes back up I'd say I've ovulated. Fingers crossed :)

ChandlersFarang · 13/10/2014 03:58

Congrats freds!! That's fab news Grin

Nordic I'm sorry to hear AF got you again. Sitting here in a hospital fertility centre now so I do feel your pain to a certain extent. Thanks

Bovny - welcome! Sorry to hear about your long cycles. That was what alerted me to something being amiss - I was diagnosed with PCOS in July. Good luck for your HSG - I say it a lot but knowledge is power, so if there is an issue then it's best to find out about it ASAP! On the EOD shagging, are you using OPKs?

Good work xBlue on finishing the clomid - fingers crossed it works for you! Am waiting for my scan now. There's always a ton of women in this fertility clinic (unreassuringly called the IVF Centre..! The Thais and their English...) and one of them has bought their baby in to wait with them. I suppose some might find that quite insensitive... Meanwhile, I've never seen so many green-eyed monsters!!! He's getting obsessively stared at from all corners of the room EnvyEnvy the madness of women hey...

MaMaPo · 13/10/2014 04:05

Good luck with your appointment chandlers!

Trying not to obsessively go to the loo to check if AF has arrived. I suppose the bright side of this morning's bfn is that if AF is late it could mean that my cycles are lengthening a bit which would be good. 24 days is a bit too short for my LP, it would be good to get back to a 28-day cycle.

Treacle, let me see if I can post my weird temp chart for you... It is so jagged! Fingers crossed my temps stay high!

ChandlersFarang · 13/10/2014 06:16

Thanks MaMa but no joy, still no bloody follicles. So annoying!! I probably didn't take enough soy - or more likely my ovaries have just gone on strike having had enough of me swallowing various things to force them to work. I've got to go back for another scan in 10 days to see if anything's happened by then. Doubt it will though. Need a new strategy to enliven my insides! Might go on a massive exercise bender for the next week and see if that helps. Haven't done much more than walking in the last month so worth a try! If nothing shows up then Dr will induce AF again and on my next cycle we will be trying Injectables - these will definitely work, but might overstimulate my ovaries. If that happens and too many eggs are made she wants me to do IVF so they can be collected and not wasted! Jesus! So much for coming off the pill at Xmas and 'just shagging'. Lol. To be honest, as per my own advice, am getting ever closer to getting pregnant.... I just need to be patient, I guess!! Smile

Come on the rest of you, any more BFPs to brighten our Monday morning?! Grin X x x

spinningirl10 · 13/10/2014 06:28

Morning Grin

Chandler, hope you had good news at the clinic.

Treacle well done on the dtd, hope you get your temp rise this morning and you can take a break Wink

MrsE, hope you're feeling a little better today.

We didn't dtd last night, I didn't even mention it, dp knows the score and I get fed up of keep going on about it. Anyway no positive opk yet so all is not lost.

spinningirl10 · 13/10/2014 06:32

Ah Chandler, sorry by the time is read back and posted I x posted with you. Sorry to hear there's no follicles there, it does seem like they're on the ball and doing all they can so I hope it's not long until you get your bfp Thanks

spinningirl10 · 13/10/2014 06:35

Nordic so sorry that af has arrived especially after your faint linesThanks

Fred Congratulations Grin

Cariad2014 · 13/10/2014 06:45

Sorry to hear your ovaries are still misbehaving Chandlers - very irritating indeed. I really hope you can kick start them over the next 10 days. As Spinning says it really does sound as though your clinic know what they're doing. Fx you get your long awaited BFP very soon.

P.s. The baby in the fertility clinic reminds me of the several heavily pregnant ladies who treated me when I was in hospital with my ectopic. I know it couldn't be helped, but still...

Treaclepie19 · 13/10/2014 06:50

Thanks MaMa! I hope your temp stays up too x
Thanks English haha, we need a break. Both of us were determined this month.

Temp went back up so now 3dpo :)

Cariad2014 · 13/10/2014 07:00

So pleased you're 3dpo Treacle. Yay for ovulation - woop woop!

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 13/10/2014 07:05

Evap or squinter? Hurry up amazon with my FRER!

P.s morning ladies!

Treaclepie19 · 13/10/2014 07:08

Thanks Cariad :) Now the wait to see what happens. Eek!

Could be a squinter want, i really dont trust ic's though due to my own crazy line inventing mind.

Cariad2014 · 13/10/2014 07:08

Afraid I can't see anything on my phone Want but that's not to say it isn't there. How long did it take for the line to appear? If it was within the guidelines then it's more likely to be genuine than an evap. Hurry up and do an FRER!

rubyrubes13 · 13/10/2014 07:11

This bus is the lucky bus and its all down to sunbathingcat first post Grin now can I have some of that luck pleassse..

lucieloos · 13/10/2014 07:14

Can't see much I'm afraid Want but think I can possibly see a slight evap! Confused

lucieloos · 13/10/2014 07:18

Chandlers sorry that you didn't have much luck at the clinic today. It's amazing how quick it all happens out there though and they do sound like they really know what they are doing..maybe I need another holiday in Thailand!! It would be amazing if ivf worked out for you, you could be pregnant in a couple of months, how exciting!!

Boosk · 13/10/2014 07:19

Yay Freds Thanks

Chandlers sorry the scan wasn't good news, hope things improve for the next one Thanks

treacle good work on all that dtd. We only managed twice!

spinningirl10 · 13/10/2014 07:24

Wanttobe I can see a faint line but I'm very cautious after my Evap lines on ic's. Use a frer.

Morning ladies

Flower bomb and sunbathing thanks for ur response I'm glad I'm not alone and u both have gone on to get preg.

Cd17 here peak again and still ov pains. Yuk they r horrid. Going to head to gym this morning and see if excerise can ease them.

Tried to dtd last night but dh couldn't. I'm a bit sad about the whole thing but trying to 'man up' as we managed cd15 abd will manage it tonight we will we will!!! So still eod just not consecutive for peaks. I guess it can still work though God ttc is not easy Hmm

TheProofIsInThePudding · 13/10/2014 08:25

Sorry, want I can't see anything. It's still pretty early for you though. I think we're due on the same day and I'm not testing yet!

Very strange things are happening with me. Yesterday afternoon, I was convinced AF had arrived, as a reasonable amount of blood had collected in my mooncup over the course of the morning. But there's been hardly anything since then and it was dark brown - old blood - not like the fresh red stuff you get at the start of your period. I've also had absolutely no cramps, which I always do on CD1/2.

I told DH that I must not be pregnant, I was convinced myself and ordered some OPKs and lube from Amazon. But now I'm not sure!

If I'm not pregnant, I would like to be put out of my misery asap! If AF hasn't shown up properly today or tomorrow, then I'll be cracking open the FRER on Wednesday morning (by which time I'll be about 12DPO).

TerrysNo2 · 13/10/2014 08:29

nordic I'm so sorry you're going through this, it must be so frustrating and upsetting, on the bright side I suppose one element of TTC is working for you so hopefully they can concentrate on helping the implantation stage. Thanks

Fred huge congrats!!

chandlers ever since my ectopic I see pregnant ladies everywhere!! One of my friends (who no knows what happened) did point out that I'm probably just noticing it more now.Smile

I'm confused as FF says I am 5dpo but I thought I was 3 or 4dpo. But as I didn't put in a temp for thursday I can't rely on either day.Confused It does throw up in the air when I should POAS!

Happy Monday everyone, the perfect weather for a Monday today down in London! Wink

TerrysNo2 · 13/10/2014 08:31

sorry want I can't comment on your pic as I can't see it on my phone. Go get a FRER!!
