Thanks for mentioning about the infertility threads I wouldn't have thought about those!

Symptoms for AF have gone except bloating/constipation, wee witch still hasn't arrived!

How are you all keeping?

thisisouryrfx18 · 22/07/2018 12:47

@MrsV2018 dnt b silly it actually helps me to know im not alone x maybe waiting until ur afs late is a gd idea seeing that bfn is soo depressing..let me know how ur OH gets on if he goes to the doc ❤

MrsV2018 · 22/07/2018 12:51

I spoke to OH half again late last night as couldn't sleep and he wants to wait another month before we go back to docs. He said let's just try another run of it. I like that he's so positive but I don't know if he sees the disappointment every month the same way I do. Hope you guys are ok?

cmdoran1991 · 22/07/2018 13:01

Bye ladies :) hope you all get your BFP asap!!!

thisisouryrfx18 · 22/07/2018 14:17

@MrsV2018 yh its gd hes positive but tbh i look back on puttin the tests off and i regret not goin sooner i feel like i wasted too much time but obvs yous have to do what feels right for yous if yous want to wait then wait x

MrsV2018 · 22/07/2018 15:04

Yeah you're right.. the sooner I go the better and we aren't getting any younger. I'll be 34 soon so age really isn't on my side but do you think maybe it will happen next month...ever the optimist!! After almost 2 years though maybe I need to just face my fears and go for further tests

thisisouryrfx18 · 22/07/2018 15:29

@MrsV2018 im the same age lol yh i get it i put it off for soo long ask any of the girls ive spoke to on here..its scarey thinking theres something wrong but i think ive just accepted it now. Dnt get me wrong i get down about all this ttc crap but i feel like i just want a solution now x the worst thought i think now is unexplained infertility or being told they cant do anything uuugghh

thisisouryrfx18 · 23/07/2018 16:48

Booked a little boat trip for me and OH were going way up north and staying for a couple of nights sumthin to look forward to we badly need it..how are u all today?! X

MrsV2018 · 23/07/2018 23:37

@thisisouryrfx18 that sounds lovely.. when are you going? How you feeling? When's your next appointment at the doctors?

thisisouryrfx18 · 24/07/2018 11:00

@MrsV2018 nxt month for a couple of days..ive got the gynaeo nxt mnth aswell seems soo far away. I feel like shit tbh how are u?

MrsV2018 · 24/07/2018 11:30

I'm just really fed up with it all atm.. am so scared to go back to the docs.. AF is due on Thursday so I'm still holding out just in case even though I know there's no point. I just go up and down throughout the day. I'm going to suggest going away for a day somewhere just the 2 of us I think.

thisisouryrfx18 · 24/07/2018 14:16

@MrsV2018 thats the best thing u can do get away for a day and TRY and keep busy and upbeat i know its harder said than done believe u me..i was soo scared to go to the docs, i try and look at it one step at a time now phone them up and try and get an appt today thats the 1st step x i just thought get the appt and i can back out at anytime i dnt need to go if i change my mind, then as the date got closer i thought fuck it i need/want to go for my own sanity.

thisisouryrfx18 · 25/07/2018 14:52

Im always saying on here theres no such thing as tmi but i have a question ladies, during ur fertile wk is it better to dtd as much as u can or wait until just before ovulation do yous think? I was just beginning to wonder when OH had his SA it said to make sure u ejaculate during the wk off it but dnt do it 48hrs before the sample, so i guess what im saying is dtd too much in the fertile wk going to effect the quality of the sperm?! Im thinking it must or why would the say that lol

HidCat · 25/07/2018 15:10

@thisisouryrfx18 I always followed the 48 hr rule - so sex every couple of days rather than every day. Every day shouldn't be necessary.

thisisouryrfx18 · 25/07/2018 15:14

@HidCat me too well we try dtd as much as we can but if we go a day without i do think well the sperm should b able to survive a couple of days..does make u wonder tho why they say no sexual activity for 48hrs before the SA it must b soo u have more high quality sperm to look at u know what i mean lol

HidCat · 25/07/2018 16:47

I think so - that seems to be the logic behind the 48 her rule anyway. Good luck with things, hopefully your time won't be too far away.

MrsV2018 · 25/07/2018 17:28

@thisisouryrfx18 good luck with OH tests.. that's a good point tho maybe we been dtd too much maybe we should do it every 48 hours instead of every day in the few

MrsV2018 · 25/07/2018 17:28

I mean in the fw

thisisouryrfx18 · 25/07/2018 17:46

@MrsV2018 his tests came back fine his sperm looked normal they said but im beginning to wonder if quality is better than quantity when ttc😕

MrsV2018 · 25/07/2018 18:39

@thisisouryrfx18 I bet your OH is relieved that they came back ok. That is great news.. so what's your next step now?? AF arrived today- 1 day early.. I'm devastated.. I'm going to try and ring docs tomorrow I think

MrsV2018 · 25/07/2018 19:36

@thisisouryrfx18 I'm so sorry... I already knew your OH results!! You already told us before.. been really sad today and think I just wasn't thinking... hope your gynao appointment goes well next month. I think I'm going to take some time out from ttc. It's taking over everything for me and it's all I think about. I'm getting really down about it so I think I'm just going to take a month out not doing any tracking or checking ovulation or anything and just get me and OH on track.. wish you all the very best of luck and really hope you get your BFP soon..

thisisouryrfx18 · 25/07/2018 19:40

@MrsV2018 its alrite hun i know u have a lot on ur mind especially when af 1st arrives x

Lubilu28 · 25/07/2018 19:52

Hi ladies can I join??

I’m currently ttc baby no 2! I’m on CD13 and was just curious if any of you ladies have had early ovulation symptoms? I’m getting cramps, higher libedo and my cm is quite watery! Done a opk but was negative?

We’re dtd everyday and perhaps twice if I get a positive opk on ovulation day. I know it’s not necessary, but we did this when we conceived our DS and caught first time so I’m hoping it will happen like that again!! Xx

XxBecxX · 25/07/2018 20:24

Evening ladies is there room for another!
I’m a bit of an old hand myself I’ve got quite a few children but I loved having the hand hold of other ladies last time I was ttc so thought I’d join in with you guys as I hop back into the crazy train that is ttc lol xx

XxBecxX · 25/07/2018 20:25

Oh lol I’m curently 3dpo!
