Merry Christmas all. Here's hoping that we all have a new baby for the next one! 😁

FruitandNutty · 25/12/2017 14:31

Here here @BaliBound! Fx for us all and Merry Christmas!

Opk help needed - what does everyone make of this opk progression. So yesterday afternoon is the bottom one, then middle was late night with just a tiny bit of pee (might explain virtually no line?!) then top one is just now today.. is this a positive opk? My bbt temps don’t show ovulation has occurred yet...

Merry christmas beautiful ladies xxXmas Smile

sophherts · 25/12/2017 16:53

@FruitandNutty so I thought that mine was positive and it looked like yours. Then the next day it really was positive (pic attached) so maybe test again tomorrow until the lines are the same darkness?

@HoneyCake86 I'm so sorry you've had such a rubbish time. I hope the next few weeks are more peaceful x

HoneyCake86 · 25/12/2017 19:17

Thanks hun. Hopefully my scan will be clear so i can get back to normal. Id be happy this month if i can have a nice healthy cycle with balanced hormones. Ive dumped the pregnacare cos of the iodine and went for seven seas, hopefully they’ll be much better suited to me. Hope everybody has had a lovely christmas day xx

Can I hop on January bus? Was absolutely dead set positively convinced we had done it this month and AF started this morning. Happy Christmas. I have a clearblue advanced monitor thing which never peaked this month, just gave me 2 weeks if 'high' so I don't know what is going on.

TTC #2
Age 38
Cycle 6

Need to decide when to seek fertility help.

Owlpatrol · 26/12/2017 00:38

@FruitandNutty yes top one positive. Remember it only tells you the lh hormone surge which means the egg should release in the next 12-36 hours so be sure to dtd plenty! Fx!!

I've had a few drinks tonight not going to lie. Not drinking rest of the week though. Only 9dpo and may test in the morning! Wish me luck! I don't feel pregnant but I don't mind testing tomorrow it's not sure a pressure day. Had a good day to be fair and kept my mind off things

[username changed] Hi user1471134011 im super new to all this but i thought that up ton35 the GP said to Come back after 12 months of trying and if you over 35 then after 6. I had ovarian cysts and endometriosis surgery couple years ago and she said to come back to her after 6 months even if I’m not 35 yet. Hope this helps?

coastalchick · 26/12/2017 08:46

Arghhhhh! FW wasn't meant to start until tomorrow but woke up with EWCM and a flashing smiley, so we had to DTD which was difficult as my parents are staying (they leave tomorrow am)

Emelene · 26/12/2017 10:57

Annoyingly my AF arrived 6 days early (instead of 1st January) and I've had a random 27 day cycle. I came off the mini pill in August so I was hoping things would settle by now. Anyway I'm still on the January bus. Onwards and upwards. Smile

Age: 24
TTC #1
Cycle 3
AF/ BFP due 25th January

nk1605 · 26/12/2017 11:30

Hope everyone had a lovely day yesterday 🎄 @coastalchick glad you were still able to dtd! I'm CD8 now and officially back on SMEP today...fx it works out ok this time!

hungryradish · 26/12/2017 11:30

Joining you ladies here. Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas day!

Cycles haven't regulated since stopping the pill in September - only had af once since then & on am currently on day 47 of this cycle with nothing going on & bfn.

sophherts · 26/12/2017 12:37

Is anyone testing 5th/6th/7th January? Af is due 7th January but we're moving to our (hopefully) forever home on 5th January so I'm tempted to test then. I'll be 14dpo if FF can be believed

HoneyCake86 · 26/12/2017 12:57

@sophherts fx for you!

Owlpatrol · 26/12/2017 13:00

@sophherts oooh exciting times! Yep I'll be testing again around then if af doesn't show I'll be about 14dpo on the 1st. Having mixed emotions at the minute whether she will show or Not! X

HoneyCake86 · 26/12/2017 13:12

Never imagined id be so relieved to see a bfn (albeit a ghost of a line in certain light). Scan tomorrow morning to hopefully get the all clear then waiting for af so i can start afresh. Feeling sad but also positive. Thanks girls for being there for me during this rollercoaster Xx

Rioja2511 · 26/12/2017 13:19

@sophherts Yes AF due 5th Jan! FXd for us

@HoneyCake86 Hope the scan tomorrow can draw a line under all this for you and the new year is off to a better start x

sophherts · 26/12/2017 13:37

@HoneyCake86 you'll get there, we all will. But it doesn't take away from the horrible experience of a mc. Fx your scan gives you the all clear x

sophherts · 26/12/2017 13:38

@Owlpatrol @Rioja2511 fx for all of us!

PinkyPromise77 · 26/12/2017 13:41

I’m due to test 8th Jan sophherts! Excited and nervous as it’s my first month TTC so generally feeling like a rabbit in headlights :)

nk1605 · 26/12/2017 14:20

Anyone here used/using progesterone cream? I was looking into it as I have quite a short LP (around 9/10 days) and with my mc last month I'm keen to try anything that will help. It may have not been anything to do with progesterone but can it do any harm to use the cream? Or is it only for cases where you definitely know your progesterone is low?

HoneyCake86 · 26/12/2017 14:42

Following nk’s post. Not heard of that before, wonder how it works x

sophherts · 26/12/2017 15:17

@PinkyPromise77 fx for you!!
