TTC first baby 1 year + thread 2

[Mrs71]

@KatBeCool @FlapJackered @Broodyaf @bunhead34 @RosettaR @MotherOfShihTzus @starkid @Lina365

I thought I'd start a new thread as the other one is full. Sorry if I've missed anyone out.

@Mrs71 I'm glad your thyroid is so close to the normal range, that's great. And that you've found someone who will monitor it more closely. I know exactly what you mean about just not believing it will happen naturally, I feel the same way. I know it is always possible though. You hear of people suddenly getting pregnant after trying for years, even after trying ivf and other things. You never know.

@ValidUser I recognise you from another thread I think.

I'm currently waiting for a scan to confirm if I have a polyp on my uterus that will need removing before ivf. Send me polyp free thoughts people!

So there is a polyp but it's small so one of the doctors will ring me tomorrow morning to tell me if it needs to be removed or not. Then if it needs removing I will need to see my GP to get referred for the operation. So many steps ...

@RosettaR - fingers crossed for you not needing an op/it not being big enough to cause any problems xx

@RosettaR glad it's only a small one, fingers crossed you don't need the op! Xxx

@Maisy24 my cycles are around 28-30 days. Last month I had a 31 day cycle which was weird but a lot of spotting from cd 26!!

@RosettaR what would you say is the normal thyroid range? The private endocrinologist was like it's high enough now for pregnancy at 0.48 even though probably creeped up slightly since then 3 weeks ago. She said 50mg every other day of my medication now. My accunpuncture lady also said anything above 0.4 is normal too. I'd be happier closer to 1 though.

Hopefully you won't need an op 🤞and it's a small polyp. x

@Mrs71 I don't have much knowledge so don't read anything into the fact that I said towards ... looking at my results, they've got the normal range as 0.35 to 4.94 on one and 0.27 tp 4.2 on another, so that backs up what you've been told.

Hoping this thread is happy to squint. Cycle a million, 8.5 days after trigger (gone since yesterday) and I see something.

Please ponder with me. Husband is also intrigued.

@RosettaR I think I remember your name? I'm the mug who used syringes instead of dtd when my back was out.

@ValidUser I think I see a very very faint line!! But it would be at 8dpo! Are you stocked up on FRERs? I have everything crossed you get your BFP!!! Xxxx

@Maisy24 very well stocked. So stocked I shock myself!

Here's hoping the aspirin helped. Two good follicles on the side with a tube.

If anyone is still on the TTC baby one threads, I started a new one this eve.

@maisy24 I cut down vitamin E in half post ovulation, no more gym, but still yoga, no more myo inositol.
This month I'm completely slacking on everything. I'm exhausted.

@ValidUser I think I can see a faint line, good luck! 🤞🏻 It has been a while since anyone has had a bfp on this thread so hoping you are the next one!

@RosettaR that sounds good news about the polyp! Hopefully they won't have to remove it.

@KatBeCool thanks I'll cut down on both vitamin E and the gym. We all need a break from this ttc sometimes so don't beat yourself up about not doing everything. It really is tiresome. Xxxx

So I do need the polyp removed, and my health insurance won't pay, they would only pay if I was having acute symptoms - from what she said I'd basically have to be haemorrhaging, but obviously if I was I'd go to A&E so they wouldn't pay then either. I'm so annoyed! I will see my gp on Monday to get referred on the nhs.

@RosettaR that is so annoying!! Insurers always manage to wiggle out all the time. Especially when you've been paying month after month. When it's needed they're like oh it's not covered!😡

Good morning all! 9dpo today of what I think is cycle 17. Officially ten days past trigger, so it's gone. First month on aspirin.

Squint with me!

@ValidUser hello! I can't see anything yet but photos aren't the best and it's very early days! Are you going to take one every day now? Have you had any symptoms? How many days is your lutual phase normally? Xxxx

@ValidUser - can't see anything yet xx

@starkid and @Maisy24 yes I am! Luteal phase always 12 days. My husband (I'm colourblind) says there's a pink line but it's not uniform.

Probably about 8.5 days past ovulation based on trigger. I feel really sick and chicken repulsing me, which happened last time I got a BFP.

@ValidUser that's exciting! I think I might be able to see something v v faint but I can't be sure I'm not imagining it. Keep us updated!

@ValidUser I feel like can see something faint! But very faint. Best of luck x

10 dpo today and total bfn. Apparently a FRER would be positive for 80% of pregnant women by now.

Not thrilled, but okay!

@ValidUser I got a negative on 11dpo with a frer before getting a faint bfp on 12dpo when I got pregnant before my mc. 10dpo is still early to confirm a bfn. 🤞🏻

@RosettaR that is so frustrating, hopefully your gp will be able to get you fast tracked on the nhs.

I am peeing on sticks waiting for a positive opk. I am not going to miss it this time! DH is looking slightly concerned at my determination this cycle!! 😂

@ValidUser I lie, it was 13dpo before I got a positive!
