Reinstating the gin deck from a previous bus for AF arrivals, and stocking up on pineapple juice and Brazil nuts, fx for lots of BFPs this month.

Oh sammy wow! Five! :)

Aufwiedersehenpetrarch · 19/07/2015 13:47

Wow I missed DizzyN's matrimonial announcement! Good on ya! And welcome back too!

DizzyMerry · 19/07/2015 14:12

Sammy Five is excellent. Hope you feel better soon. You've been through a lot physically and emotionally. It can't have been easy but hopefully the frozen cycle will be a breeze.

That's frustrating dizzy. Hope you can work it out and get the blood test done on the right day.

Thank you everyone. There have been a lot of tears, but we're alright, now just hoping AF arrives quickly so we can get on with things. Dh has been amazing as per usual. Xx

5 now Sammy, fantastic! I'm sure you'll be successful and won't need to use them allGrin

Nomio230 · 19/07/2015 17:26

5 is great, Sammy. I really hope you feel better soon & are able to get one growing inside you!

DizzyN, do you have a feeling about which day you OVd on? If so, I would override FF & go with that.

We just walked to the gym to go swimming, got changed & then found out the pool is closed for training. Grrrrr. Back home we go!

Hairstylisttoboris · 19/07/2015 17:37

5 is awesome sammy. Hope everyone is having a lovely Sunday. I'm being very lazy, and loveing every minute of it.

DizzyNorthernBird · 19/07/2015 18:10

Thanks auf!

nomio I really don't know. I had a 0.2c rise after cd19 then a 0.28c rise after cd21. So it could be either. Annoyingly I can't use my cm as a guide because I was so busy all day on cd21 I didn't notice what was going on down there. I input it as ewcm that day anyway (even though I'm not sure what I had) which is what first confused ff. maybe I'll delete it again and see what happens....Grin

I've had a lazy day too boris, we've been to a family fun day with the kids and had a takeaway pizza for lunch. But then I got moaned at for reading my book rather than helping DP with clearing up in the kitchen so he's gone off out in a huff. Ugh.

DizzyNorthernBird · 19/07/2015 18:15

Actually thinking about it (tmi alert) on cd22 I had stringy yellow cm which looked like ewcm which had dried up..... Stretchy but not slippery or wet, more springy and rubbery. So would this indicate I would have had ewcm the day before and cd22 was my first day of infertile cm, meaning ov on cd21? What do you lot think?

chopsface · 19/07/2015 18:28

sammy hope you're feeling better today? One of those 5 will be your baby :-)

DizzyN - what happens if you take all of your cm entries out?

Chops - yeah, feeling a little better I think. Had some puppy therapy earlier which definitely helped! X

Nomio230 · 19/07/2015 18:38

That sounds logical to me, DizzyN, plus you had more of a rise after day 21.

Sammy, how long now until you get your little puppy?

Technically we could bring her home next weekend, but we're waiting until the 23rd August - it seems like ages and will now probably coincide with embryo transfer! X

Nomio230 · 19/07/2015 21:06

At least it will distract you from the waiting!

Reluctantnympho · 19/07/2015 22:40

Congrats on your engagement dizzyn. Sammy I am so sorry you have had a tough time and that you couldn't do the transfer, but how fantastic that you have 5 little beauties ready and waiting.
I've had a busy weekend. It's been dh's aunties retirement and 60th this weekend so we had a massive party last night. Followed by a fantastic meal at a posh country hotel today. Copious amount of alcohol have been consumed which is bad timing really as I have ovulation pains and dh's performance has not been up to his usual standard due to drunkeness and hangovers!! He is currently snoring next to me!! So no bding tonight Hmm

Morning all! Monday again SadAngry but at least in only doing a 4 day week cause it's my birthday weekend!
Had a nice weekend, lots of time in the sun. And now it's rain rain rain.

8 dpo. No symptoms to report, although dh is convinced my sense of smell has ramped up. All I can promise is I won't be testing on my birthday, but any other day is fair game Wink

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 20/07/2015 06:28

Sammy sorry everything's so stressful at the minute but 5 sounds more positive.

Has anyone used any supplements at all. I tried epo this month I did notice slightly more cm than usual so I think I'll keep using it for a while. I'm thinking about trying agnus castus as well

Aufwiedersehenpetrarch · 20/07/2015 08:15

Morning all! Hurra-a-ay for progesterone! Grin

Aufwiedersehenpetrarch · 20/07/2015 08:18

O-oh happy soon birthday, Kir. I agree, don't test on your birthday.
beauti this month I've basically done off all supplements. Doubt it had anything to do with the frer-positive, but I only took folic acid, my thyroid meds, a general multivitamin, and then the meds that the fertility clinic gave me. I have to say I felt a little less stressed about the supps. It was also a bit of a worry for me that I might miss a day of B6 or of eop or whatever and that that was screwing it all up.

Kirjava · 20/07/2015 08:38

Omg auf congratulations me dear!!!!! Fx that this is a lucky bfp week for all of us!!!

Kirjava · 20/07/2015 08:39

How many dpo are you auf? Nice clear + there!

Aufwiedersehenpetrarch · 20/07/2015 08:46

Thank you kir 10 dpo. I'm so happy. :)

Kirjava · 20/07/2015 09:25
