Hi user

Sorry your unwell Pie that sounds painful, look after yourself Flowers

Sorry Basset that AF got you!

Good luck with the tests PJ its great that they give you the results after!

Its CD 24 here, have a small bit of brown spotting last night and a bit again this evening - so I think AF may make an early arrival for me, Its not due till Sunday/Monday depends on which app I look at Grin

Thank god tomorrow is Friday Smile

Blissfulignorance · 24/11/2016 18:21

Hi all, been quiet for a few days. Stressful week at work, 3 baby bombs this week too and DH has left his job due to stress today. The only positive is AF has finally left on cd 7.

Moonlight that pic is beautiful, how precious.
Pie that all sounds awful, hopefully you can get sorted soon, has anyone mentioned narrowing of the urethra to you? That can cause retention and can be easily sorted with a non invasion op to dilate.
Pj so pleased your blood results are good and I've got everything crossed for the next batch of tests.
Seahawk hope you're feeling well still and this waiting has driven you to insanity.
Sorry for AF basset, Kirsty and mouse Cake
Bluebell that cycle sounds very reasonable for the first let's hope the next is a lucky one or if not you at least fall into a regular pattern.
Hope you're feeling better wanting
Eva good luck for ov.
Hello to all the newbies.
Hope I've covered everyone. Baby dust or whatever to all.

WantingBaby1 · 24/11/2016 20:54

Thanks bliss, sorry to hear about the baby bombs, but glad af has left the building. Fx thus month is your month.

Fx you're not out yet hells, I need a testing buddy next week! Cd 25 for me today. Still tummy aches aches but I think I have a bug rather than a baby :(

Sorry about af basset Flowers

HellsBellsK · 25/11/2016 11:07

I'm out wanting AF came in full force this morning - Fx for you. Let us know how you get on.
I will be testing again on 21/12.

Even though I knew it wasn't my month I am pretty upset. Feel everything is messed up from the chemical last month. Only stopped bleeding 12/12 days ago and now AF.
Going to use CB ovulation kit this cycle and hope I get BFP for christmas.

Going to enjoy the weekend my brother is getting married so going to enjoy the wine Smile
Sorry to everyone else who AF got Flowers

LisaSimpsonsbff · 25/11/2016 14:22

So sorry about AF, Hells. I think we all sort of hope, even when you 'know' it's not your month, and especially after the rough time you've had. Hugs and hope that next cycle is your cycle. Enjoy the wedding and savour that wine!

WantingBaby1 · 25/11/2016 18:01

So sorry hells :(

bassetmum · 25/11/2016 18:13

So sorry hells. Enjoy the Wineat the wedding. Af is definitely being a bitch witch this month. Fx it will be lot of Christmas bfps all around.

I've caved and bought some opks to try next month. At least its something I can do without my OH knowing any different haha. Although my flow isn't particularly heavy but the cramps are unreal this month so who knows whats happening there. I could barely move this morning with the pain.

Piehunter · 25/11/2016 19:40

Sorry hells that AF got you, glad you gave something to look forward to!

basset killer cramps are so nasty, as if AF when you're ttc isn't bad enough.

blissful sounds like you're having a rough time of it! Hope things get easier for you soon. No one's mentioned anything..! I had an MRI of my spine about 2 months ago as there was concern about cauda equina after first retention episode but that came back clear, waiting on a new brain MRI appt, referral from before latest retention episode, I have quite complex/weird and partially undiagnosed health conditions, so it seems the retention could be related.. It's just annoying as I feel if I didn't have stuff going on already they would have investigated more thoroughly, and more quickly...! I fear the catheter may be slightly too big too as I've not had pain like this from one before Sad

bassetmum · 26/11/2016 18:55

Pie i hope you are feeling better. Never had a catheter but my mum has and she said they aren't the most comfortable of things. Fx the mri's tell you something.

Well af is heading out of the door for me so two fulls days of flow isnt bad I think. I do still think its strange I have such bad cramps but then the actual amount isnt that bad. Does make me wonder about endometriosis but don't really want to cross that bridge. Its strange as even when I was on the pill in mu late teens early twenties I used to have a really heavy flow.

Seahawk80 · 26/11/2016 19:15

Hi bliss sorry to hear you've had a rough time. Baby bombs are tough. I had a really awful time with work and other things a few months ago and alongside ttc it can make you feel really low.

Hope you get the catheter sorted pie - it sounds painful.

Doesn't seem like a good time for any of us. I've had more bleeding today so back to the epu for a scan tomorrow. I'm trying to stay positive, it would have been the time for AF and my dr said that some women do have a light bleed every month and that's why you get the articles in crappy magazines saying 'I didn't know I was pregnant until I gave birth in tescos'! Fingers crossed I'm just like that. We also DTD this morning for the first time in ages which can make you bleed, so hopefully it's just that.

Poor DH - he'll have gone from me demanding that we DTD every other day to a 2 month ban!

I'll let you all know how I get on - hopefully we all get some good news and Christmas BFPs soon!

Blissfulignorance · 26/11/2016 19:31

Thanks girls, starting to feel a little more positive now, apart from the humongous zits that are still on my face. Probably a reaction to the huge volume of chocolate and wheat I've consumed over the last week or so.

The baby bombs seem to be relentless for me recently. Is there something in the water that I'm immune to?

So hope everything is alright with you Seahawk do let us know.

Basset I always have suffered with horrendous cramps. So so bad every month for about 3 days. Drs told me when I was a teen that I must take after my mother.... no need for investigation Hmm

Sorry that AF got you hells.

We have to have some bfps this xmas!

JeNeBaguetteRien · 26/11/2016 20:31

Been so tired thanks to AF, last 2 days the worst but CD6 now so she can piss toddle off soon.

Hope all is well Seahawk.

LisaSimpsonsbff · 26/11/2016 21:01

So sorry that you're going through this worry Seahawk - really hope everything is good and reassuring tomorrow.

Piehunter · 26/11/2016 21:19

seahawk hope they're able to put your mind at ease at epu. Horrible to be so worried.

basset and baguette end of AF is a fresh new start, enjoy Smile

blissful bloody baby bombs... Angry

Seahawk80 · 26/11/2016 21:32

Thanks everyone. Really appreciate the kind words. Just wish I could relax and enjoy it. I'm staying calm though and hopefully it's all fine and I'm worrying about nothing. I think that from the moment you start to TTC you're just worrying and second guessing your body. I just stupidly thought that would end after a bfp!

Pyjamas81 · 27/11/2016 09:39

Hope your mind is put at ease soon seahawk

Me and DH are a bit worse for wear today after we did a mini pub crawl (just the two of us ha ha) last night! Ah well, was nice to let our hair down Smile

Was going to start opk testing with the CB digital this morning, but only remembered after I'd already been to the loo! Will start with a cheapie later. Will go to Lister's drop in clinic for my AMH test this week at some point. Get this finding answers ball rolling!

Seahawk80 · 27/11/2016 10:13

That all sounds positive PJs . I miss pub crawls just the 2 of us -
They can be the be best kind!

All is good with baby Seahawk- such a relief. DTD is now banned for a month - poor DH, probably feels a bit used at the moment but we're both just glad it's ok. This is all such a rollercoaster!

Seahawk80 · 27/11/2016 10:15

It's upside down but I love having a photo - finally feels real!

First time ttc - thread four
LisaSimpsonsbff · 27/11/2016 10:54

So glad to hear that, Seahawk - wonderful news.

MrsG280516 · 27/11/2016 10:59

Awww lovely photo Seahawk glad all is well!

Seahawk80 · 27/11/2016 11:04

Thanks - so gladness it was good news. Hopefully we get more good news on here now. Wishing for Christmas BFPs for all Wine

Pyjamas81 · 27/11/2016 11:30

Great picture seahawk!

Fingers crossed for all of us and Christmas BFPs!

Eva30 · 27/11/2016 11:35
