Thanks @LondonKez @MrsLBear @MamaDane

No they didn't say what shape the sac is or any details...

Looking at dates, if I am about 6 weeks then I got a faint positive at 4-6dpo which seems unrealistic.

Just going to try and be cautiously optimistic... Unless I start heavy bleeding I will try to assume everything is ok(ish).

Thank you for your support I really appreciate it xxxxx

@chikitiki I hope you get some good news next week Flowers xx

LauraPalmersBodybag · 05/12/2018 23:28

Much love @chikiTIKI it’s so hard not to second guess and interpret everything isn’t it? Hope you can get through this next week and have some good news. Thinking of you x

Carastarchild · 06/12/2018 18:47

Chiki sending you the biggest virtual hug. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I really really hope next week will bring better news. I pray that your little bean continues to grow and develop 💜✨💜

Hi ladies, how are you all getting on? Xx

Whisky2014 · 06/12/2018 19:26

Hey, im back from honeymoon. So seemed lile last cycle last 35 days when my average is 32.
My app says i ovulate tomorrow and i did get egg white discharge today so think tha ties in. Although i did an opk and was negative.
Anyway we habe dtd so fingers crossed!

ChikiTIKI · 06/12/2018 19:59

Thank you @Carastarchild. Will let you know what happens. Trying not to feel too sad yet. Want to feel like I have tried to be positive and done my best. Just got to keep busy til Thursday.

Welcome back from honeymoon @Whisky2014 got my fingers crossed for a honeymoon baby! Xxxx

MrsLBear · 06/12/2018 20:42

@LondonKez I'm on CD11 today and been DTD every other day from CD5 (day after AF completely finished) even tonight which I think I deserve a pat on the back for as I'm riddled with what feels like the flu. Just know I would kick myself if I didn't stick to it.
What about you?

Keep us posted @ChikiTIKI sending you positive thoughts x

Welcome back @Whisky2014! Do you normally get positive OPKs around OD? Fingers crossed for you!

Whisky2014 · 07/12/2018 06:04

Thank you!

Eek bear this is only my 2nd cycle...am i testing opk at the wrong time? Should i test earlier?

MrsLBear · 07/12/2018 08:57

@Whisky2014 not necessarily do you do a few around when it says your ovulation day is? I'm no pro as I'm yet to get a positive (which is so annoying) so I'm literally testing every day from CD8 to make sure. I wouldn't solely rely on apps though cos they rely on you putting in data. Do you temp?

Whisky2014 · 07/12/2018 09:06

No i always forget in the morning!
I think the app is a good general indicator and then i also seems to get a fair dollop (eugh sorry) of that egg white discharge which to me seems a good indicator ovulation is imminent?

Carastarchild · 07/12/2018 19:14

I am CD 8 today and got a high reading due to an estrogen surge being detected. I am not telling my DH, and we are just going to DTD every two days.

So today I went to the clinic and I had three follicles, at 19mm, 12mm and 10mm, so insemination day is Monday! Woohoo. Had my final injection before the ovulation trigger tomorrow. Praying 5th time is the one and there will be a positive test for Christmas. Xmas Smile

@Chiki I know you want it to be good results but I think you're right. It's a bit too early to test for pregnancy 4-6 at dpo. Hoping everything is good though. Sending you some virtual hugs.

Carastarchild · 07/12/2018 22:24

Congratulations Mamadane that's great news!

Chiki how are you holding up? I hope you are okay x

Is anyone going to be testing over the weekend?

LondonKez · 08/12/2018 11:20

@MamaDane how exciting! Good luck!! Fingers crossed for you x

AF arrived this morning. 2 days earlier than natural cycles estimated, but completely aligned with when I thought I ovulated (nc has sinced changed O to when I thought it happened!). Gutted but expected given my temps.

Onwards and upwards onto cycle 13...13!!! Ergh. How did a year go by with absolutely nothing happening? 13 is lucky for some, right?! 😫

Carastarchild · 08/12/2018 20:33

Oh no London I was only thinking about you earlier and I was really hoping you would get good news this cycle 😔 Am I correct im saying your luteal phase length has improved. If it has take it as a huge positive sign 🌟

Newbie... Fifth cycle, two cycles ago had a chemical. Currently 10-11dpo. Had two evaps with Poundland strips and one BFN with FRER. AF is due Tuesday.

anitagreen · 08/12/2018 23:12

I've decided I don't want to try anymore, I have been struggling with my anxiety and what not for the past few months and hormones too. And it's just not the right time for us at the moment. I want to wish every body good luck and I hope you all get babies soon.
@ChikiTIKI I hope it all works out for you and everything's okay. Xx

MamaDane · 09/12/2018 10:38

@anita I understand. It is very emotionally draining to ttc. Perhaps you just need time to recover a bit? Otherwise yeah I get it. Sending you some virtual hugs. Hope you have a good Christmas

anitagreen · 09/12/2018 11:38

@MamaDane I did think of that but I think the way things are atm it'll just be unfair to bring another baby into our lives. Whilst I feel like this, I'm by no means depressed but I have been struggling with my OCD badly and anxiety and it's time I did sort it out x

38notcounting · 09/12/2018 22:12

@MamaDane best of luck for tomorrow x

@London I hope 13 is lucky for you X

Got a peak on my monitor today cd13 so going to get busy today and tomorrow and then keep fingers crossed for the next two weeks. What with all the craziness leading up to Christmas hopefully it'll fly by!

MamaDane · 10/12/2018 05:37

@anita I see what you mean. I think it's good you're going to work on yourself and improve your situation. Wish you all the best of luck in that Xmas Smile
@38 Thank. Just woke up with cramps. Perhaps I'm ovulating now. Blush
Good luck with the baby making!

Whisky2014 · 10/12/2018 10:22

Oh god i re read company policy and im still one cycle too early to get their package ! Well ill miss it by 2 weeks if this cycle works. Woops. I'm on my 2 week wait now

MrsLBear · 10/12/2018 10:43

@Whisky2014 surely they could make allowances for 2 weeks? Plus can't you fib a little with dates?

Whisky2014 · 10/12/2018 10:57

Maybe Mrs bear. It would just be risky if baby came early! Oh well dont even know if I'm pregnant yet so will just take it as it comes.
