Checking in!

TrixieRay · 22/01/2015 21:09

Me too Mumwannabe! Wish my cat was so entertaining!

Hi MissMrs, i would ask if you decided about getting any tests done but you are clearly pg so no need Grin
I'm ok, apart from some good old fashioned work stress and a leak in our bathroom - grr. Still I shouldn't moan, DH and I are off for a mini break in the sun on Sat (queue lots of DTD) have abandoned my OPKs and bbt and after 13 cycles of obsessing trying to take the laid back approach for a bit.

Who you spying on Pikz?

Nomio230 · 22/01/2015 21:44

Nomio230, age 37, ttc No.1 for about 4 years, cycle 3 of Clomid, af due 23 Jan.

59sound · 22/01/2015 22:06

Just adding my stats Smile:

59sound, TTC #2, cycle #5, BFP due 17th Feb.

Oh, and can I have some advice on my new vitamin regime?! I'm taking the Seven Seas 'trying for a baby' vits, plus 500mg royal jelly and 1000mg evening primrose oil. Sound ok or too much?

Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

Fx for those soon to test Smile

Mumwannabe82 · 22/01/2015 22:33

I just took seven seas trying for baby and bf was taking well man conception tablets, Definitely agree with vits for both man and woman xxx

Sparkly123 · 22/01/2015 23:13

mumwannabe hi! Thanks for stats list... I wonder whether I should be on it or what to say about mine! If I count cd from start of the mc then I guess today is either cd 5/7 for me. I have no idea. But either way, if we do try again this month my BFP would be due in feb.. But just not quite made it to feb bus yet as happier here with you lovelies at the mo!!

Purdey Urgh sorry to hear of your situation with the husbands work.but new year new opportunities and all that eh ? Let's hope so! You deserve some good news to come your way pronto!!! Are you doing the smep plan then?

Good luck to all those testing tomorrow, I'm rooting for you all xxxx

Mumwannabe82 · 22/01/2015 23:44

hi sparkly, I only left you off because I wanted to make sure you were ready and comfortable for me to do it so just let me know and I'll put you on xxx you are being very brave and I'm glad you have come back, well done on keeping positive Smile

Sparkly123 · 23/01/2015 00:05

mumwannabe oh I totally know that don't worry, I just have no idea what to put as my stats! How about just WTF?! Ha. And that's kind of you to say, but I don't know about brave! Husband has found me in a hormonal mess at various points over past few days I think!! Trying my best. Part of me desperate to try again but feeling so unwell and confused about when to try and if it's a good idea straight away.. It would be lovely if someone had all the answers wouldn't it!! How are you?? Sorry if you have already posted your update- my heads a bit all over the place so I can't recall!!

Mumwannabe82 · 23/01/2015 00:13

aww bless you sparkly, it's totally normal to feel the way you do and only time will tell when you are ready to 'get back on the saddle' xx
I got my bfp on Tuesday Smile but I want to stick around because I love the buses and the amount of support on it so decided to take over as stats queen lolol
really hope you feel better soon xxx

pulpi · 23/01/2015 00:29

Not pregnant. Inexplicably. Off for a good cry.

Nomio230 · 23/01/2015 01:10

Oh no, Pulpi, I am so sorry to hear that. I really thought you were going to get your bfp. It is so horrible when you have all the signs, but don't get the result you wanted.

Thinking of you.

BabyBumpHopeful · 23/01/2015 03:47

shamelessly marking my place so when you ladies go crazy with the chatter while I'm off I know here I left off :)

Baby dust to all!

loopylou1984 · 23/01/2015 06:22

Pulpi, so sorry to hear that. Hope you're getting lots of tlc. Xx

Blimeygirl · 23/01/2015 06:47

Yep defo cd1 for me as AF has arrived. Pissed of as I tested pregnant but also really relieved to get back to normal again. Please God bring me back my 31 day cycles! Fingers crossed for the next one! Dh has said we will be more proactive about dtd so when should we time it? I know eod but from when?

loopylou1984 · 23/01/2015 06:56

Sorry to hear your news too blimey, I had a false positive once too, it's really hard.
This cycle we did eod from the day af finished up until the day of ov (later confirmed by temp rise) I wanted to get at least one more try in but dh really tired so didn't happen. Think if it doesn't work this cycle we'll start a couple of days later in feb. Xx

Mumwannabe82 · 23/01/2015 07:04

so sorry pulpi and blimey Sad Thanks Thanks Thanks Thanks

Marmite27 · 23/01/2015 07:28

Sorry pulpi and blimey :(

AFM at 6 DPO with AF due a week toda I have few of my normal symptoms. My boobs are usually VERY sore at this point. Not so this month, just feel a bit heavy, but no pain. Also some mild cramps on and off, and a lot of wind Blush
I'm so glad it's Friday, DH is home and I'm planning a lazy weekend :)

Bovnydazzler · 23/01/2015 07:46

Morning all, hurray for Friday!
purdey so sorry AF has reared her bloody head for you, hope the Feb bus is the lucky one.

blimey sorry you've had such a confusing time (presume chemical?) it must be such a roller coaster of emotions. Fx for this cycle being less wtf.

pulpi I had really been rooting for you with your brill willpower, sorry AF has turned up. Hope you and your DH have a lovely relaxing weekend (and wine!) to celebrate!

nomio when are you planning to test? If this cycle follows the 1st clomid cycle then AF should be due tomorrow so I'll either test then or wait till Sunday. I tested early at 9dpo but not since, I don't mind having an early negative as I can convince myself it was too early, I decided I couldn't face a later dpo morning BFN so waiting for AF instead. Not to say I'm not going mad thinking about it, vivid 'testing' dream last night (it was inconclusive in my dream, can't even convince my subconscious one way or the other!)

letsdothisthing · 23/01/2015 07:46

Sorry pulpi and blimey Flowers

Sparkly, nice to hear from you! I can totally relate to your posts as I had a mc at 9 weeks in Nov, the shock is horrendous and throws off all your plans (that you undoubtedly make when you POAS and see the second line!) It took a good while for my hcg to come down to normal levels, started off over 5000 then down to 200s then about 30 before dropping below 5, all together it took about 3 weeks I think! Then I tested negative, the docs said I would ovulate again and my period would return as normal afterwards! My wtf cycle was 50 days!!! And totally felt in limbo land but hopefully yours will be less as you will have had less of the pregnancy hormone being earlier on in the pregnancy than I was! Once I had my negative we tried again straight away but I didn't get a positive OPK throughout that cycle so not sure I even ovulated!

Now in first cycle post wtf cycle and currently 7dpo! No symptoms but temps are going up so I'm staying positive! Flowers

Bovnydazzler · 23/01/2015 07:47

Sorry pulpi I just read my message back. I didn't mean celebrate at all, mean to write commiserate Blush sorry xx

PurdeyBirdie · 23/01/2015 07:50

Oh I'm so sorry pulpi - and flabberghasted - how long was your luteal phase then??

blimey are you classing this as a chemical then? That was definitely a line we saw.

dojo123 · 23/01/2015 07:52

Sorry purdeypulpi and blimey Flowers

I'm still really suffering from this cold/flu and have booked in to see my doctor today to see if there is anything else I can take to sooth the symptoms. Had a coughing fit last night which ended with me being sick. Then this morning nearly passed out in the shower as I felt so dizzy, needed to lie on the bathroom floor for a few minutes to recover. Have had stabbing pains in my abdomen but don't know if this is cold related or pg related.

One positive is I've lost 4lbs this week! (Silver lining)

ninjabeer · 23/01/2015 08:18

Hi ladies, strictly speaking I should be on the Feb bus but just hanging out to see how you are doing. Sorry for the difficult time some of you are having. Sending Cake and Wine in abundance.
