monkey thank you, I'm trying to stay positive, the only way other than up is down, and that's a direction I don't want to go! I'm getting my tests 22nd July so very soon Smile With regards to symptoms of O after it has happened, its classed as ovulation sickness, symptoms can be before, during, after, or all the way through! But 'feeling' O definitely helps you to know when its happened,....saying that, you can actually get little O cramps before and after too! Confused X
carrot I really hope you get a strong line soon. X
Sakura your tww will be over before you know it...im assuming you're in your tww? X

Allmychildrenhavepaws · 12/07/2015 17:57

tft any news??? I hope you're enjoying your holiday! X

Mummyofonesofar · 12/07/2015 20:17

carrotV I'm sure a darker super drug one is a good sign.

paws both of you should start the vits now! You need them anyway. If the vits fix any problem he has then great but they take 3 months to feed into the sperm so any tests he has wont show them up yet anyway. Otherwise you are waiting for tests and if they say he needs to up his selenium etc then you are still 3 months away from them having an effect.

fruit I ov 2 days after my peak smiley and 3 days after a +opk. So could have been then.

6th day of flashy smileys. Kill me now Hmm

Sakura03 · 12/07/2015 22:48

monkey I got my smiley on Thurs Cd15 (not using the dual hormone so just had the circles and then a smiley face). We dtd cd13,15, 16 and 17, so I feel we have done our best this cycle (I don't tell my dh when my most fertile time is as I know he'll feel too pressured). paws I always find the last week of tww dragging... any tips?

Allmychildrenhavepaws · 12/07/2015 23:31

Just keep yourself busy, read a book, see a different friend every other day. Any odd jobs you've been meaning to do around the house etc etc... That's all I can suggest I'm afraid hun. It'll be over before you know it, and if you get a bfp then it's on to the next wait! X

mummy he's throwing a strop now and says a doctor told him years ago not to take multivitamins! Tried to explain they are not multivitamins, but fertility supplements.....nope, not having any of it! The man lives on caffeine, chicken nuggets, pizza, chips, cherry coke and biscuits! I give up. He I the most stubborn man I have ever known. I'm doing everything I can health wise to have a baby, but taking a pill is clearly too much to ask. Angry

Allmychildrenhavepaws · 12/07/2015 23:45

Hallelujah! He took it! Grin
Ahhhh...the power of nagging Wink

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 07:05

paws I find nagging works too. Glad he is taking them, get him to keep it up and in 3 months time his sperm will be improved Grin if we have all the worry and ov counting and testing the least they can do is take a bloody pill!!

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 07:06

Cd15 here. Day 8 of flashy smileys Sad no ov yet.

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 08:37

17 dpo now and a faint line on a Superdrug test, nothing on an IC. This is quite a waiting game! Not ideal with my bloody MIL lurking around all week.

Totally agree with what mummy said, paws. Taking a pill is the least he can do.

OP posts:
Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 09:10

CarrotV Was it showing up on ICs before?

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 09:13

Nope. I get a faint line on a Superdrug or FRER but nothing on anything else.

It's all very annoying

OP posts:
Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 09:14

How long is your LP usually? It is very odd

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 09:21

Pre-MC it was 14 days I think. My WTF cycle it was 12 days. I guess it could be really late implantation leading to test delays. Or more likely a chemical pregnancy.

I'm incredibly bloated today which could mean anything

OP posts:
Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 09:27

CarrotV I hope it is just late implantation hun, fx for the next few days for you x

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 11:19

Fresh red blood when I went to the loo - I guess I'm out for this cycle. I'm assuming chemical pregnancy

Having had a MC and now a chemical should I see my GP just so it's on my notes? The MC was dealt with by the EPU

Hey ladies, I was on the board a few months ago, got pregnant and then had my 2nd miscarriage.

I've just had the following....

Need talked down off the ceiling, I went to a spa this weekend, used the sauna, steam room, jacuzzi etc, and have pretty much drank non stop since Friday. What have I done?! I have no symptoms and was sure I wasn't pregnant so it would all be fine. Wwaaaaah.

Congratulations on your line carrot

AllThereIs · 13/07/2015 11:22

Oh no, carrot. Ignore my thoughtless post. I'm so sorry Sad

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 11:22

Sorry CarrotV I would mention it to the GP, maybe have a phone conversation with them or go in if you prefer face to face.

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 11:23

Don't worry about it allthereis and congratulations to you!

OP posts:
Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 11:28

Congratulations. My GP said the only thing that can effect implantation and early pregnancy is scuba diving - other than that - the odd thing before you test won't do any damage.

Adventuregame · 13/07/2015 12:22

Hi All

I've had a break from the site and was on holiday last week but just caught up and found the new thread !

Paws so sorry that you've been through this again. I can't imagine how you've got through it a 2nd time. Big hugs !

It's actually been really good for me to have a break from these threads so if you don't see me on here for a while you'll know why but I do wish everyone lucky BFPs !!

Allmychildrenhavepaws · 13/07/2015 13:28

mummy I agree, I'm relieved he's taking it now. Sorry no sign of O yet Sad it will happen sooner or later though, so hold on hun. X
carrotv I'm so sorry love, I know how shit it is. I'm getting tested as I don't have any children yet and have had two mc's in a row. If you don't have children yet, I would push for so we blood tests. But if you already have dc's I would imagine they will say Tha they cant look into it until you've had three mc's. Sorry for your loss hun Flowers X
allthere congratulations, chill out, I'm sure everythings fine. X
adventure lovely to hear from you, glad you are well. X

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 13:45

I have a little boy paws. I'm just not sure whether I should see my GP to get it on record or not.

OP posts:
Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 14:16

I would do it can count as mc number 2. Though I know someone who struggled to get their cp noted down as the GP hadn't seen a BFP themselves. So maybe take the sticks in when you see them.

Allmychildrenhavepaws · 13/07/2015 17:03

carrot I agree with mummy
Glad you have a dc to bring you some comfort. X
