thisisouryrfx18 true! That would have been horribly awkward if it was positive!

Well I'm just trying to build up courage to walk into the clinic now. Currently sitting on my car. Nervous wreck

Surprisingly the sonographer told me roughly what she could see. She said I have a good lining on my womb and my left ovary looks normal but the right one is a concern. I must book in with my GP within the next week. Not sure what to make of that?

OP posts:
DaisyMay25 · 22/05/2018 13:03

@TwittleBee it's a positive about the lining, will make a good home for a sticky bean! I'm sorry about the left ovary, perhaps it's just a cyst though. Fx it's nothing too bad though Thanks

TwittleBee · 22/05/2018 15:01

DaisyMay25 she said she saw multiple cysts and she isn't surprised that I've been experiencing pain. Really surprised by how much she was telling me, previously when I went in for a scan as part of PCOS diagnosis they said they couldn't tell me anything and only my GP can discuss results with me?

Idk, I've looked into it and I am relaxing a lot (surprisingly Google is helping me here haha!) and there's a very slime chance cysts are cancerous and only a biopsy can confirm whether they are. So surely that means sonographer couldn't have seen cancer at least!

HidCat · 22/05/2018 15:47

@TwittleBee that sounds like positive news at least. Hopefully they'll have them treated for you soon.

thisisouryrfx18 · 22/05/2018 16:07

@TwittleBee just seen ur message there gd for u that u had the guts to go in! it sounds like god news soo far i mean nobody wants cysts but its better than the alternative😊

sophi22 · 22/05/2018 16:21

@TwittleBee so pleased that you got on ok. At least you have some answers now x

TwittleBee · 22/05/2018 16:35

Thank you ladies! I'm taking it as a sign to fully commit to TTC. Although sonographer was concerned it doesn't seem it could be anything that bad!

How is everyone else today? When are people POAS? Wanna see some more lovely BFPs!

thisisouryrfx18 · 22/05/2018 16:44

@thisisouryrfx18 the wait is always hurrendous! Really got my fx for you.

@dee7409 sorry that AF got you. Not sure on b6 but hopefully someone on here can help 😊

thisisouryrfx18 · 22/05/2018 22:39

Thanks @sophi22 hope yr enjoying ur hols🌝🌈

italianwifey · 22/05/2018 23:05

@twittlebee I’ve been told
That before but also that my ovaries look normal! I think when you have lots of little cysts just means it’s tried to ovulate but maybe hasn’t managed it at one time? See what doc says though and I’m
Much better at dishing out advice than taking it but try to leave dr google alone as it often makes you worry more!
@dee7409 sorry about af, mines just finishing now I think - B6 I take 100mg but I also take a bcomplex because I heard your body can’t absorb it otherwise but don’t know how true that is?
@thisisouryrfx I’m with twittlebee on this get into a series...have you watched this is us? It’s on amazon... I started and got quite addicted but it’s a bit of an emotional one I blubbed nearly every episode but then i love a good cry sometimes!

thisisouryrfx18 · 23/05/2018 04:56

Afs on its way isnt it😭

Nutty fun loving TTCers [thread #2]
TwittleBee · 23/05/2018 06:33

thisisouryrfx18 hope your decorating is coming along nicely. Oh no temp drops aren't a good sign usually this close to AF. But maybe the 1st dip wasn't implantation (Just where you were on the sofa) and so this one is implantation. FX!

dee7409 sorry about AF Sad as for b6. Not totally sure on b6 specificaly but I've been taking B vitamins once a day and it has increased my LP by 1 day

sophi22 hope you've got a bean on its way to implantation. FX. How long you on the trial for now?

italianwifey thank you. I know I've got PCOS and have had a scan in my teens which showed multiple cysts on both ovaries. Cysts can come and go on their own easy enough.

Morning all!
Woken up with killer back ache this morning, I did ten mins pulling weeds yesterday but I didn't think I was this out of shape!
Considering doing the CB trial, reading through the stuff now, awkwardly will need to print it at work Blush

What is it about B6 that is good to take now? I take a general multivitamin that includes folic but not sure about the rest, I'll have to peel the label :)

TwittleBee · 23/05/2018 07:57

IsAnyoneElseMissingCheese

All of the B vitamins are essential during the pre-conceptual period. Research has shown that giving B6 to women who have trouble conceiving increases fertility and vitamin B12 has been found to improve low sperm counts

Also, you might not be out of shape but just twisted funny or not used your back muscles efficiently whilst pulling weeds! Hope it eases up once you get going this morning

thisisouryrfx18 · 23/05/2018 08:29

@IsAnyoneElse i was weeding yest to try n distract myself lol went shopping for paint went to the gym then done garden for a bit im knackered @TwittleBee i just know afs coming after that dip 😭

Cakelaur · 23/05/2018 08:33

@thisisouryrfx18 sadly it does look like AF is gonna show. BUT remember mine did that I go my bfp 3days later. But also if af does show take from it that you have your first full chart. You have a good LP and you defo ovulate. Now you know what to look for and roughly when you Ov. And the chart doesn't show signs of any issues.

thisisouryrfx18 · 23/05/2018 08:47

@Cakelaur i know rationally theres been positives this month and i keep trying to tell myself that but im currently in my bathroom trying not to cry..its gettin closer and closer to the 3yr mark and i just feel like giving up i hate my body for putting me through this torture

sophi22 · 23/05/2018 09:23

@TwittleBee thank you! Trial finishing end of this month and this is the second month I have been on it. Just have the dreaded TWW now! And thank you for the b6 info, may give that a go next month.

@IsAnyoneElseMissingCheese Trial is pretty easy if I'm honest, but then I am in the control group so all we got to do is test when they tell us to!

@thisisouryrfx18 you are not out until AF appears, but I am so sorry to hear it has been near to 3yrs. Fingers and toes crossed for you lovely!

dee7409 · 23/05/2018 09:49

well cd2 and i am throwing everything at it this cycle! thank you all for the info that you have posted...i am trying b6 60mg per day..is that enough? i am also trying pineapple...dont know how it works, but i love it ha ha..also folic acid 400mg per day and metformin 1000mg per day....what else? i dont drink...i dont smoke...i dont drink coffee...anything else might be helpful please let me know...thank you and good luck ladies!

TwittleBee · 23/05/2018 12:19

thisisouryrfx18 oh bless you lovely, have you started the talk with the GP yet? It could be your OH not even you that is causing the delay in getting that bfp Flowers

sophi22 not long to go then! Be lovely if you finish the trial with a bfp. FX

dee7409 its not just coffee but anything caffeinated (remember tea has nearly as much caffeine as instant coffee!) What about yoga? I keep meaning to start and stick with trying that! Good to get you relaxed but also build up some strength. Good luck!
