Cd11Star and trying to dtd a lot

Good luck @mama and well done on keeping up with dtdWink

So pleased for you @durez , glad all is looking well.

Also happy for you too @nim for af and a bunch. Best of luck this new cycle hun.

Ohh @foot, that is one heck of a combo you got there. Hoping it will be wellworth it in a few weeks. Will be trying the pineapple, folic acid and baby aspirin too.

Hie @tee, and good luck with your combo too. It would be really nice to all get our bfps this cycle. By Christmas, we just might be holding our bambinos

Mimilicious013 · 29/03/2017 18:08

Sorry you are feeling down @kate, but let's hope for a sticky bean in no time. Hugs

Mimilicious013 · 29/03/2017 18:10

Waves @kiki @earth @mob @russ .hope you are feeling just fine.

How are the babies doing @jod @radders @parney

Mamabooksbabynumber2 · 30/03/2017 08:15

Thanks for the ewcm advice everyone. It was still there last night. Which was cd21 and my cervix was very soft.

mimi I'm sorry to hear how down you've been. I can imagine just how demoralising it must be having tried for so long. Is there a chance for some investigations now? Any idea why it's taking so long?
foot that's alot of pills! Hope it gives you a boost and makes a difference.
How far gone are you now durez?
tee whereabouts are you now in your cycle?

Tee4me · 30/03/2017 08:49

I wouldn't object to faster growing nails and better hair Footy! If my new folic acid doesn't arrive today, I'm thinking about popping 2 or 3 of my standard dose ones at dinner!
Ah Mim sorry you've been so down, I second Mama, is it worth asking for help now? I have my appointment with GP this afternoon. I've signed to a new surgery because my old one closed down (so annoying, the gp there didn't hesitate to refer me to a specialist despite me having a DS and a miscarriage). Since I fell again at that point it was all dropped, so I need to kick off referral again with new Docs, but they may be more hesitant given my history.
Mama that's curious about all this extra ewcm! If it's really unusual and quite a significant difference, perhaps it's a sign for you!

CD16 here. Think I ovulated CD14. DTD CD8, 10, 11, 13, 14. Will see if DH is up for it later to cover us off a bit more.

Jam good luck with the move tomorrow! Do you have a test on stand by? Any sign off AF?

Mimilicious013 · 30/03/2017 12:23

Congratulations @jam on the new house. Good luck with the move and here's hoping a little one is on the way to warm up your home.

That's a good dtd pattern @tee.hope you caught the egg . it's becoming a tiresome road but hopefully we will get to the end soon.

Poas is around the corner for you @mama. Good luck hun

Tee4me · 30/03/2017 13:58

Make sure you're all making the most of the lovely day and getting lots of direct sunlight on your skin girls! Another tip from the book, vit D very important when ttc x

Footy1 · 30/03/2017 14:31

Yes feeling a bit pasty with my arms out! Need some sun. Tee good dtd pattern. I'm thinking of changing gps, as feel my one isn't very helpful. I've popped a few folic acid pills at a time- doesn't hurt me. My nails are long!! My hair is long!Smile

Day 4 of clomid metformin and the whole pill combos. Should ovulate 5-9 days after the day 5 pill. Let's hope so!

Jam did u test yet??

Mama- if your cervix is soft, high and u have EWCM it could mean ovulation?? Could it have not been delayed? Cervix usually toughens up after ovulation. Are u getting any twinges? Boobs ok?

My Dh just called and said I was moaning in my sleep and very hot. He was a bit concerned what I was dreaming! Haha must be the clomid. I keep having hot flushes!
Trying to focus on diet at the mo.. is hard though as it's not simple stuff. It takes time to prepare and sometimes I don't want healthy food especially when the house is full of chocolate eggs!!

Londonjam · 30/03/2017 15:06

Thanks gurls no tests I can't face the blank white stare

May as well go for one more for luck tee

Thanks for the tips I am logging these Smile

Sounds like clomid is kicking in footy

Mamabooksbabynumber2 · 30/03/2017 15:09

Haha footy that sounds hilarious. Your dh must of thought he was going to get lucky!
The ewcm has stopped today the last few days was very sparse but not what I usually have at the point in the cycle. Very odd. Deffo not ov now. I really don't think so as it's died down now. I don't like to symptom spot as it just leaves.you so disappointed. I had read a soft cervix can be due to conceiving but don't want to get my hopes up. mimi I can test a week today when af is due on the Thursday. I'm going to take a test with me on holiday as we are going abroad.

Tee4me · 31/03/2017 08:28

Jam don't lift anything heavy without knowing?! Any sign of AF?

I went to see my new GP yesterday afternoon, as suspected, she wasn't prepared to refer me to a specialist. Funny how it's completely pot luck who you get. My old GP didn't hesitate to get the ball rolling. I thought I might feel annoyed about that, but actually I left feeling quite boosted, as she was very confident about everything being completely normal. She said I can go back if I have a 3rd mc or have ttc without success for a year after the last bfp, which would be October (by then I'll be nearly 2 years ttc!). So it's just down to Mother Nature now! I hope she's right and the mc's have just been bad luck. She completely dismissed my complaints about ongoing cramps.

Mimilicious013 · 31/03/2017 09:31

Glad you are feeling positive @tee and that the doc didn't think there is anything to worry about. Mother nature please smile on usGrin.
Fx @mama hope you nailed it. Enjoy your trip.
jam , any symptoms hun?rooting for you
Good luck with the diet @foot.are you still training? How are you coping with the combo? Hope a great egg is in the making.
Dh out of town so pretty much enjoying the bed to myself

Lee1977 · 31/03/2017 09:35

Ladies do u think this is a positive ovulation test? :\

SQUARE ONE TO GRADUATES! Come on ladies we're huntin' BFPs!
Londonjam · 31/03/2017 10:45

tee there is such a lack of consistency in healthcare it drives me nuts! I suppose its reassuring that she feels confident it will happen naturally. Hope that takes some stress off you.

mimi enjoy the bed to yourself!

No symptoms really over here, PMS aside. My boobs hurt, I felt crampy when I woke up this morning, which always happens the day before AF, so I reckon it'll be here tomorrow.

Tee4me · 31/03/2017 13:49

Lee that's pretty close to positive in my book. Did you test this morning? Best time of day is 2pm as generally the surge happens in the morning and takes 4 hours to be as detectable as possible. I've had months where the test line is stronger than the control when I've nailed the timing, but if I got a test like you've pictured, I'd still expect OD to follow quickly and definitely DTD tonight!
Jam hope you are proved wrong about AF. She definitely made me feel better and drummed in that I MUST relax x

physicskate · 31/03/2017 21:05

Lee, you can probably count it as positive unless you test tonight darker...

Any news jam?

I've had a nearly positive opk. Only cd 15!! So looks like the soy is shortening my fp!! Hurray!! No more 34 day cycles I hope!

DuRezidal · 31/03/2017 21:24

Oh @Mimilicious013 there's nothing better than the bed to yourself!

Footy1 · 31/03/2017 22:16

Mimi i like have big the bed to myself too. Sometimes wish I had a spare room Wink

Kate great news if your cycles have hopefully got shorter!
I might try the soy myself if clomid fails.

Lee I'd do another tomorrow to see if it gets darker. I find sometimes they are really clear or a bit hazy so makes it difficult to see.

Jam got my fingers crossed for you x

Hi everyone else, been really busy this week. Getting back into shape as doing a bit of part time work. Finding it difficult with the metformin as I feel nauseous on and off (depending on what I've eaten and when etc..) nothing worse than jogging and feeling rubbish. Last day of clomid tonight so now it's just a waiting game. I need to stay positive Smile

Footy1 · 01/04/2017 07:25

Just re-read that and cracked up! Who's big the bed? Lol.. must have been tired..

Mimilicious013 · 01/04/2017 09:11

Happy Saturday everyone

Hahaha foot , you definitely did a lot of working out, but I kinda understood what you meant. How are you this morning? No more clomidWink crossing everything that a good ripe egg is in the making.

Happy sexathon @kate

Any news @jam fx

Hope you are a little relaxed now @tee .l just enjoyed my Friday nite with a little vodka and lemonade so relaxed this weekend .let's hope the tww flies by.

@lee hope you jumped your oh

Londonjam · 01/04/2017 15:57

Day 1 cycle 17 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

physicskate · 01/04/2017 17:25

Oh Jam! Hoping that thumbs up means positivity!

Tee4me · 01/04/2017 17:52

Sorry Jam, new cycle and new house to ttc in. Positivity on CD1 is a great start x

Footy1 · 01/04/2017 19:27

Footy1 · 01/04/2017 19:28
