Thank you Sparkley, that's all this is. I'm trying to come up with reasons why my bfp isn't happening.
I just called the hospital and tomorrow is just an internal so no full bladder required!

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 13:08

Sammy no full bladder is good! I hated that uncomfortable -I'm about to pee my pants- feeling! Ha. Tomorrow has come round quick, I remember us talking about it before and it seemed ages away!!

Nomio230 · 14/04/2015 13:09

Sparkly, I tested 2 weks after my CP & still got a faint positive. I a not sure if that is normal or not.

Purdie, we don't really have the money, it is coming out of our house fund. We will have to live without carpets for a while!

I just don't care. I am at the point where not being able to get pregnant is affecting everything. I have lost all my confidence and enthusiasm for life. All I can think about is why my body won't work properly.

Sorry, very me, me, me.

spinningirl10 · 14/04/2015 13:14

Sparkly, please stop apologising! I think it can take a week or more to turn negative but equally some are negative very soon. That's absolutely no help is it, as with everything in ttc it's very frustrating. And I'm good, thanks for asking, cd3 so very dull but I like this bit because I can exercise harder and not worrySmile

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 13:16

Nomio I think you are absolutely right to get help now and Star everything else! It totally does take over your life. You have been at this a long time time, now is the time to get your baby! And you will! I can't wait to see you with your BFP stick!!!

spinningirl10 · 14/04/2015 13:17

Nomio, carpets are overrated! I think you're totally doing the right thing going to see the private consultant. Sending a hug, sounds like you need one.

Sammy, good luck with your scan tomorrow.

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 13:20

Spinning that's great you are focusing on the exercise! The first part of the cycle is a bore eh! We shall be cycle buddies again now more or less! Yeh I guess there is no real answer is there! I think because January was so different- I had strong positive and then fainter lines over the space of about three days it happened quick. Where as now it's gone the other way, fainter first then stronger. Which is actually much harder to deal with!!! Grr! Didn't look at all last night at consultants, maybe I'll try do that today Smile

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 13:21

Nomio with a BFP stick , an actual stick.. Not a sticky BFP.. Although I suppose I do technically mean both! Wink

Nomio230 · 14/04/2015 13:23

Lol Sparkly. You are amazing to be so caring & enthusiastic even though you are going through so much yourself right now. You are a Star

Nomio230 · 14/04/2015 13:24

I mean that as a star, not as the word you substitute it for! You are not that at all!

lucieloos · 14/04/2015 13:25

Hi everyone, sorry I have not been on for a while. I am still keeping track of you all.

Brilliant news about your private appt nomio I really hope they can help you get your bfp soon.

Just said a massive congrats to vic on the april bus. Such amazing news

I updated on the April bus as well about my first scan yesterday but I thought I would post here too just incase anyone is interested in the ivf process.

They counted 8 follciles which they said was a decent number but I was a little disappointed with. Had been hoping for around 12. They said quality over quantity etc though so will just have to wait and see. I have my final scan tomorrow morning and will prob trigger thurs or fri for collection on sat or sun!!

Nomio230 · 14/04/2015 13:37

Good luck, Lucie, that all sounds really exciting! I was asking just the other day if anyone had heard from you. Which company are you using?

MelonMelon · 14/04/2015 13:38

purds US was November as well as bloods. Swabs done in February all clear. No hunch to be honest I've got no idea. I was very stressed a week or too ago but I feel a lot calmer now but apart from very sore boobs there's not a single sign of impending AF

spinningirl10 · 14/04/2015 13:41

Lucie, great to see you. Thanks for
Popping on to update. 8 sounds good and yes quality over quantity! When do you fly out to Czech? Please keep us updatedSmile

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 13:43

Lucie fantastic to hear you are in the process now. Exciting! 8 sounds good lovely. Wishing you all the very best. Please keep us updated! Your BFP is coming!! Flowers

Mummyofonesofar · 14/04/2015 13:48

Lucie I am glad everything is going so well!

Sparkly sorry for dimness - have we decided it is definately a cp? With the stronger test then the beta with the correct levels and the scan to say your lining was intact does it not point tentatively at a sticky bean who just likes to cause bleeding? I don't want to put your hopes too high incase of a fall obviously but I am feeling positive for you Flowers

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 13:52

Mummy thanks for your positivity. The proper red bleeding started after she was rooting around at my scan yesterday. I asked her if it was possible that was my lining coming away now when she called last night as there had been more blood and she said yes. So I'm thinking so. Thursday will tell for sure! Wish it was tomorrow! I stupidly did a IC today. I thought if it was fainter or going negative then it would help me to get into that headspace, but because it was stronger than Saturdays positive it's messed my head up a little. I know within my heart that I can't possibly be with all this bleeding still. Frustrating but just need to keep calm. Thanks for being so lovely Flowers hope you are ok and have formulated a plan of attack for doctors!

DizzyMerry · 14/04/2015 14:40

Nomio sorry AF arrived but great news about the private appointment. I will be interested in how this goes as I also have low progesterone.

Lucie fantastic news. Saw your update on the April bus and replied there.

Sparkly thinking of you Flowers

Cd2 here and I wish AF will just hurry up and leave. Have had 2 days of heavy bleeding and clotting (sorry tmi). I have started temping today so will hopefully have a chart soon to show Dr Purdie. Will be interesting to see what my body's doing!

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 14:44

Sorry for the rubbish AF Dizzymerry excited to see your chart though! Are you feeling better now? Flowers

Nomio230 · 14/04/2015 14:59

Dizzy, I really hope it gives you some answers. I have a feeling you may be like me & not always ovulate. That combined with low Progesterone means not much chance of a bean. Sad

The good news is that once you know for sure, you can do something about it. As the good doctor always says, knowledge is power!

Mummy, I hope you are just having a strange month & you OV on time next cycle.

DizzyMerry · 14/04/2015 15:11

Nomio my levels were lower when we were ttc DD. I got lucky one cycle and conceived. You will get your bfp and are taking positive steps towards it. It can and it will happen.

I'm feeling much better thanks sparkly and more positive today. It can and will be fixed!

spinningirl10 · 14/04/2015 15:14

Merry, yay for temping Smile

Victoria, when you come back down to earth and can tell us a bit more pleaseSmile your Dh has sperm issues doesn't he, what were these? Stories resulting in a bfp after some time trying and with poor sperm give me hopeGrin

frogbubbles · 14/04/2015 15:45

Totally fell asleep last night with phone in hand!! Sparkly your frog pants made me chuckle.
