PMA Express to BFP Thread #5

[Hippychic79]

So we are rolling on to thread #five –
We are not giving up, our PMA is still alive.

Put pure and simply,
We want to have babies,
God, please help everyone of these lovely ladies.

We support each other,
We are funny and kind,
And we will not be giving up,
Until we see that thick BFP line.

Thanks ladies really appreciate the kind and encouraging words. I guess we will know more after we see consultant. Sorry for bringing the mood down x

No worries Blondie. We can't be PMA all the time especially when hit with blows like that. How come your AMH was tested? Is it because you were going for investigation due to length of ttc?

Fingers crossed your consultant appointment can be arranged soon an you can get the info you need! And then you will know where to go from there!

Xx

blondie make sure you get the support you need from friends, family etc and maybe try some holistic therapies ... big hugs xxx

Hi all, I bought the clear blue dual hormone OPKs today. When is it that I should start testing on a 35 day cycle would you say? I usually ovulate around day 25. Xx

Just catching up and this is proving to be a horrible weekend for some of you.

So sorry about AF turning up Hippy and Archies. Good PMA though. We are stronger than the witch, even if she is stubborn.

I am so sorry to hear your news Blondie. I really hope the consultant can give you some constructive advice of what to do next. I have everything crossed for you that there is something that can be done. Xxx

Thanks ladies. Yes AMH was tested because we were at fertility clinic. Age 38 and 8 months ttc - I would urge all of you over 35 to get referral after 6 months trying . You are entitled to it on NHS.

My dh is a rock. I am so thankful for my 6yr old (from another relationship) and it feels selfish being upset and so devastated when I already have one. Before my 6yr old I had a tfmr due to anencephaly and I was in a state of fear for most of my pregnancy after that. Really praying for a miracle so I can have more and enjoy a pregnancy with my now dh. I will allow multself misery for tomorrow and then try the PMA for Monday!

blondie you certainly are lucky to have a little one ... some of us 38 year olds are still ttc #1. Glad to hear dh is looking after you. Be kind to yourself and seek out that Pma .... I appreciate it's an utter shit blow but like I said earlier miracles happen daily xxx

magpie thanks for your kind words :)) my Pma is returning slowly... had a wonderful afterNoon with my best friend walking through the woods smelling the bluebells

Good evening lovely ladies.

Awww @hippy I'm so sorry af rocked up. Silly witch 😩 Just think another fresh start again ❤️❤️❤️

So sorry to hear that @blondie hope ur ok sending my love hope u get some answers when u see consultant.

Hope your all having a good weekend. I am 8dpo don't feel anything 😂 CD26 and af appeared on CD28 last month!

Just been baby bombed AGAIN 😩 I think CD1 is possibly the worst day to get baby bombed!

But my amazing DS kept coming up to me all day saying "are you alright Mommy? I make you all better with a kiss" He is so amazing and I am so lucky to have him, I just need to remember this when the PMA starts slipping 💙

Archie's iv been baby bombed 5 times this cycle not even kidding FIVE!!!!

Plus coming close to my due date soon so a BFP before that would help 😭

Oh god Amanda, 5 times, that's crazy!! Come on, this will be our cycle

hoping sorry I didn't reply yesterday - I would start opks on cd18 if you think you ovulate in cd 25 ... gives you plenty of time to catch it. Keep us posted :) and happy dtd

amanda thank you for your kind words and hugs and sorry to hear about your five bb's ... ffs that's just shite ... fx this is your month. Af rocked up early for me last month but at least it's a fresh start quicker. We just need to welcome her as she is a necessary part of the process.
archies hugs for you too - bb's definitely should be banned on cd1 .... fx your bfp is just round the corner.

Thank you hippy we are dtd every other day anyway just to be sure. Will keep you updated xx

hoping if your dtd every other day you should be covered and Lady Luck / Mother Nature should do the rest xxx good luck chic xxx

@AmandaP86 sorry about the baby bomb & due date soon approaching. It's the shittest thing. It's actually wasn't as bad as I expect though 💗

@asrchiesmamanird. Sorry about your baby bomb too. It's shit isn't it. I had one from very good friends few weeks back but they understand our situation an said we know it's tough for you guys after the loss. So at least they appreciated how we felt. I am suspecting more baby bombs to come especially in summer. Just praying to god we will have a BFP so it won't hurt so bad.

Was genuinely feeling really down yesterday and had lots of tears. Convinced I won't ever get pregnant an my period is short & stupid and just annoyed in general why I don't know it's working. But today I've woken up and feel a bit more positive. CD4 and AF will be done for me & just have some spotting when I wipe. So only 8 days until FW.

Think I might try CB dual hormone ovulation tests this month to see when my estrogen starts to rise and compare them with the cheap OPKs when a static appears. It's just something proactive for me to do.

Oh and DHs vitamins arrived and he took the three yesterday so right on schedule. Fx for a boost!

anna glad your Pma is back today ... I've had lots of tears this weekend too ... this journey is a bit rough at times but we will get there cycle buddie xxx

Hopefully hippy that's if we stick to that as we don't always get chance with LO xx

hoping it only takes one magical sperm so fx you get a few good well timed sessions in lol :)

anna glad your feeling better :)) cd1 was yesterday for me and equally filled with emotional hormone driven tears so we can be let off I think. Cd2 ain't much better but my period is a beut this month - sorry tmi ... lots of rich red blood so I'm loving it ... I don't like it when it's sparse and a half effort lol.
Pma for today
Sun is shining
Had a lush chat with a good friend who knows exactly how I feel
Come to the realisation that I'm text book cycle and I need to get dp's Doreen's up to speed so ordered him some magic pills ... could take a good few months for these to kick in .... so .....
I'm gonna enjoy a few chilled out cycles ....
Take the pressure off myself ...
Stop beating myself up for something I have limited control over
And concentrate on enjoying the pre baby life and wait patiently for my stop ....

Have a beautiful Sunday ladies

Oh girls just caught up on your weekends, I think we all need to go out and get drunk!! Apart from our grads obviously, they can be our designated drivers!! 😂

Firstly blondie I'm so sorry for your news but hippy is right, doctors aren't always right and I shall keep my fx for you. Please do seek advice and lots of opinions and maybe look at alternative therapies? Keep your chin up. 💐

Hippy and Archies I'm so sorry af has turned up. But your pma has been fabulous!!! Spoil yourselves and get ready for your next opportunity to make a miracle!!! 😍

And as I've just caught up with you all I've just noticed my pma crown!!!!! Thank you so much hippy!!! I shall wear it with pride as your longest serving pumpage queen!!! 👑

Hi everyone, just trying to catch up

So sorry Blondie, Im going to get my AMH tested soon as my FSH came back as high. I have been reading up on it lately and a lot of women do manage to conceive in the end despite bad results, so keep up the PMA although i can imagine how devastated you must be at the moment.

Im sorry to hear aunt flo has been paying more visits. Thats a great affirmation Hippy, I have a similar one in the fertility hypnosis i've been listening to and thanks for the extra info about the feet warming. I had two pairs of socks on today and a hot water bottle as i panicked i was feeling chilly lol.
Have felt really dizzy an woozie on and off today, im hoping thats a good sign. The one good thing about the tww is when ever you feel rubbish you feel like their might be a silver lining.

My period came on CD28 last month which is tomorrow and I pure have the fear for this week 😭😭😭😭

Hi all, I have been away this weekend and haven't been on mn at all, so a bit late in discovering the tough weekend some has had.

Hippy and archie so sorry to hear that Af showed up, I had such a good feeling about some more bfps. Gutted for you! But amazed by the pma from both of you. Hats off ladies. As others have said: we will get there!

Sorry blonde for not getting the news you had hoped for** on your amh test. It must be terribly upsetting. I'm no expert, but I also know about good outcomes for people with low amh. I hope you get better news when you go through your results with your consultant.

Amanda and rose, Fx for you both! When will you be testing?

No I don't think so I'm actually so scared this week I don't know why 😭 I go to Spain on Thursday so it's gonna make or break my holiday isn't it!!! Xxx

Thank you everyone

Amanda keep the faith, you could be going on your holiday knowing there's a little bean growing in your tummy. Or if not, at least you get to drink and relax ready for your BFP next cycle
