DizzyMerry · 21/10/2015 22:16

Dizzy just over 3 weeks now so it may arrive at some point next week fx.

Nomio I'll update my stats when AF arrives.

I'm keeping up with you and the grads silently on FB night.

Nomio23 · 21/10/2015 22:45

DizzyM, it looks like Glittery has taken over, so send them to her.

I really hope AF arrives soon & you can start to move on. X

Kirjava · 22/10/2015 05:16

boris I'm sorry you had such a crappy day. I hope your bro is doing ok. I like nomio' advice of getting yourself down on some waiting lists - might help you feel more in control and that it is progressing. Flowers

Kirjava · 22/10/2015 06:39

MN ate my post :(

Nothing much to report. Trying SMEP this month - have done the 3 days in a row now a day off and then dtd tomorrow.

Beansprout30 · 22/10/2015 06:41

Bfn for me this morning Sad

Kirjava · 22/10/2015 07:01

Sorry bean . How many dpo? When is af due? Flowers

loopylou1984 · 22/10/2015 07:11

I'm so confused! My temp this morning was 36.6 which would usually be a post ov temp for me, but yesterday's scan did not show that ov had happened and I still had a dominant follicle!
I'm going to stop temping now, it isn't doing me any good! Lol. Xx

Kirjava · 22/10/2015 07:36

sammy good idea to stop temping. You know from the scan that everything is ok, so not worth worrying yourself about temps. Like anything, temping isn't totally accurate Flowers

Beansprout30 · 22/10/2015 08:00

Think I'm 11dpo but possibly 9. Just been to dr for something else and we spoke bout fertility again and she said my chlamydia anti body result was on the higher side, so she took some swabs to test for it, even though I've had regular tests now I've convinced myself I have blocked tubes. This is gonna be a long day I just want to go back to bed and cry

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 22/10/2015 08:07

Wow so much to read back on. Day 4 of holiday here we are back tomorrow evening.

Lily so sorry. I hope your cramps have eased. Thinking of you.

Boris sorry you had such a rubbish day I really hope you have a better day today. How's your db? I agree with others I would start looking into IVF now no point waiting.

Hi to Sammy,Dizzy,Nomio,Pixa,Kir,Bean,wooly, night & Eskimo sorry to anyone I've forgotten

Hi to the newbies (oldies) Grin

I will catch up more when I'm home. Really hoping I'm travelling back with an extra one on board. Managed to dtd cd 9,14,17,19,20 & 21.

nervoussam · 22/10/2015 09:13

Morning everyone, so I had my appt with the GP yesterday. She admitted that when I called on Monday she was really worried that I'd not had a bleed after my second course of norethisterone. However, I told her about the browny discharge I've had and she said that reassured her a bit. But she doesn't want me to start the clomid (that's been sat waiting patiently in my kitchen cupboard for weeks now!) and needs to do some more investigation. New bloods on Monday and will be booked in for a scan, hopefully within a couple of weeks and we'll go from there. Fingers crossed a bleed comes in the meantime but I don't hold up much hope as the discharge seems to have stopped now too.

I was giddy when I was given this course of action a couple of months ago, after so long just waiting, it felt like we actually were getting somewhere but now we're back to not knowing what's going on, more tests, more waiting :(

DizzyNorthernBird · 22/10/2015 09:18

Morning!

Wow beaut that's a lot of sexy time! Enjoy the rest of your break!

bean hang on in there. Why do you think you have blocked tubes? Does chlamydia cause this? It's still too early for you though!

night the wedding plans still aren't underway, other than us agreeing we'll start looking for venues after Xmas! We've agreed on an Autumn/winter ceremony in 2017 to keep it cheaper and a ski resort honeymoon! Log fires....snow....hot tubs.....can't wait! Lol.

sammy I agree about the temping, as much as I love it, I think all its going to do now is confuse things for you.

Nothing to report here, dtd last night cd13. Found some opks hidden away in the cupboard yesterday and broke my rules and poas, got a strongish but negative line but I'm hoping it means ov will come early again this month. FX.

Off for a run in the countryside this morning after another cuppa Grin

DizzyNorthernBird · 22/10/2015 09:22

Aw nervous sorry you're back in limbo. But that's great you're getting more tests so quickly though. You will get some answers soon.

GlitteryClitoris · 22/10/2015 09:23

Morning everyone,

bean don't fret about anything until you know for sure. worrying isn't going to get you anywhere its a waste of precious ttc energy. Step away from the tests! x

beaut I have probably missed where you have gone for your holibobs - hope you have had a lovely time.

Not sure what stats everyone is using. but here is the link: stats

Beansprout30 · 22/10/2015 10:57

beaut hope you are having a fabulous holiday Smile

nervous this is pants that you are back to waiting for more tests, the whole not knowing what the problems are is the worst thing. At least once there is some kind of diagnosis you can look to move forwards to fixing it. Hope you get some answers soon x

dizzyn yes it can cause blockages if left untreated. I bloody hope this hasn't happened and I'll be annoyed that this chlamydia hasn't been picked up before when I've been tested. It's one thing after another! Dh is being great wish he was home to chat to properly though.

Hi glittery thanks for getting on the stats, I try to edit but even with the app I can't work out how to do it! How's you today?

Beansprout30 · 22/10/2015 10:59

God we need a bfp and some goods news on here! Smile

nervoussam · 22/10/2015 11:06

We certainly do! Good to know we have some ladies to share in our woes but some light at the end of the tunnel would be good too! :)

GlitteryClitoris · 22/10/2015 11:24

bean not too bad thank you. I am cd29 of a usual cd27 cycles and no sign of AF yet. No cramps. Feel proper shitty. Headaches, slight backache, knackered, completely no appetite and teary just now. It just gets frustrating - waiting for AF, waiting for AF to piss off, waiting to become fertile, then trying to fit in as much sex as possible, then the tww...gah! If no AF by Saturday then I will test FMU on sat.

lily how are you today? Did you go into work or are you having a lazy day at home?

Boris hope you are feeling brighter and more positive today.

nomio how are you today?

Sammy how are you feeling?

loopylou1984 · 22/10/2015 11:36

I'm ok thank you, just waiting for tomorrow.
I'm nervous that the 14mm won't have grown, but trying hard not to project in to the future as Birdie would advise.

The cramps have gone away now though I think, hooray! Xx

nervoussam · 22/10/2015 11:42

Hooray for no cramps sammy, fingers crossed for tomorrow, will be a lovely way to start your weekend with some good news x

Beansprout30 · 22/10/2015 13:20

Do you think you might be in with a good chance this cycle glittery? Fingers crossed af doesn't show!! All the waiting is shite, suppose we should b grateful that at least we have regular cycles!

nightandthelight · 22/10/2015 13:30

Ooh autumn/winter weddings are lovely Dizzy! And your honeymoon sounds great Smile

Any idea as to the kind of wedding you want? Church, registry office, stately home etc? Sorry I love a wedding! You can have some fabulous colours at that time of year Smile

GlitteryClitoris · 22/10/2015 13:59

bean any cycle has a chance (20%) it only takes one as my mum keeps reminding me....Smile Even though I have repeatedly told her my CD21's are low so probably not ovulating....but all hope is not lost.

Each pregnancy is a miracle in itself so there is always a chance. You've got to hang on to any hope haven't you Star

Oh yeah! I thank my lucky Star that my cycles are regular. That itself is a green tick. That's why I am not too keen on shoving agnus cactus or inositol or soy down my neck. I think most of the time we just need some tweaking. None of us have been told we will never have children so you just got to keep going x

MagpieCursedTea · 22/10/2015 16:58

You do indeed just have to keep going!
I'm so glad I found this thread as I find TTC quite lonely Sad
I hope it's okay to be a newbie on here, you all seem so close don't want anyone to feel their space is being invaded if that makes sense?

Dizzy I love a winter wedding (I got married in winter too), it's all so cosy and romantic! Your honeymoon plan sounds great too.

Nervous I hope you get that bleed soon. It's good your doctor is being proactive by the sound of it!

My bleeding seems to have slowed to spotting today, I'm a bit worried about how that will effect the clomid, on CD3 now and second clomid pill tonight.
