@Missgoldilocks @Gems7 totally! I get jealous/ upset when people talk so blasé about how quick and easy they fall pregnant like it is such a joke to them. They often say "we wish we had a few more months of trying hahaha"

No you don't you idiots 🙄🙄🙄🙄🤣🤣🤣

Missgoldilocks · 29/06/2020 18:36

@Gems7 yep everything you said basically lol

@Annny27 😂😂😂😂 they have no idea lmao!!

How are we all? Af started Sunday for me as predicted, I rang up the fertility clinic and it's going to be £600. Also I've been looking at what women say about the pain and I'm pretty damn scared! going to get my mum to give me her hardcore cocodamol before hand 😂 they'll ring me tomorrow because I have to do a chlamdiya test first because if I do have it they can make it spread to the tubes apparently (which I don't) lol

Gems7 · 29/06/2020 18:43

@Missgoldilocks they did a chlamydia test on me in hospital 😂 it's standard apparently but when I saw if on my file I was like WHAAAATTT!

CD7 for me now 😃 I officially started using my OPK's today, felt kind of weird! Should really DTD tonight but I really can't be bothered 😂😂😂 I'm going to have to get back into it though!

£600 seems pricey, but if it helps you in anyway then it's worth every penny, if you can afford it then pay it, I would!! XxX

Missgoldilocks · 30/06/2020 14:28

@Gems7 so glad you can get back to it now! Did you manage to dtd last night? Yes it is pricey 😬 but so worth it just to know plus it makes you more fertile for 3 months afterwards so that's always a plus. I'm booked in for the 9th July 11.15am I'm soooo scared but so happy they said my partner can come in with me! I'm going to have to firm this pain because otherwise they'll need to do it under general but I'm not paying more for that!! Xxx

Gems7 · 30/06/2020 18:43

@Missgoldilocks how does it make you more fertile afterwards? 👀 that's interesting isn't it..
What do they do?
I really hope it's not too painful for you, I thought I could handle pain until I attempted that MVA under local anaesthetic 😖 fuck me that was painful! You're a tough cookie though hun, you've got this!!
Yes we DTD last night, fingers crossed it doesn't take another 9 cycles (or longer) this time 🤞🏻
Xxx

Missgoldilocks · 01/07/2020 09:44

@Gems7 I'm hoping you get that spurt of fertility some people get after a MC fingers crossed 🤞 🤞
Interesting isn't it? Basically it clears out your tubes so if there was any left over stuff in the way it clears it, or if there is like light scarring the liquid can push it through. BUT annoyingly the oil substance is the one with higher pregnancy rate afterwards but I'm getting the water one I found out yesterday, which is still good because its flushing out your system and stoll a higher rate of pregnancy after but the oil based stuff for some reason works better. It might not make me more fertile some people still don't get pregnant after but there is a chance. If you Google hycosy make you more fertile? There's some info on it. At least I'll know either way if my womb and tubes are A okay 👌
So when are you due to test? Xx

Annny27 · 01/07/2020 09:48

Morning :) cd15, no peak yet but lots of ewcm so imagine its gonna be soon next few days!

@missgoldilocks yeah I have heard that about that procedure. Fingers crossed!!! Do they not use any kind of anesthetic then? Hopefully will all be fine!

@Gems7 yayyy you are back in the game! It can be totally different can't it. We conceived after 4 months and now we are on month 7 of this try so it really varies each time!

Missgoldilocks · 01/07/2020 10:19

@Gems7 also can't get the oil one done because its an old fashioned way of doing it with xray lol but when I see the doctor I will ask him if there's anyway he can use the oil substance instead

@anny27 no they don't give general and if you can't take the pain then you have to get it but it's more money and so I'm going to firm it lol get to dtd girl!! Xx

Gems7 · 02/07/2020 07:39

@Missgoldilocks yes I know exactly what it is now, I thought you were just having blood work done etc I didn't realise you were having your tubes flushed. My sisters friend had it done and she did say it was extremely painful, I also know somebody who was booked into have it done but that was before covid. It's pretty common so surely can't be that bad.. at least you will have that piece of mind knowing that everything is okay in there!
@Annny27 Defo back in the game, I had the worst left sided ovulation pains (I assume?) that I have had in months last night, only for about an hour but I had to take some paracetamol, usually I never take painkillers with any sort of pain I just get through it, then this morning I have just got a flashing smiley.. so something is going on in there!! Only CD10 today though and I used to OV on CD15 so will either OV earlier or have days of flashing smileys!
What CD are you now?

@PrettyTulip @Laur89 hope you girls are okay xx

Gems7 · 02/07/2020 07:55

@Missgoldilocks I would ask for the oil too, really pester them for it. I'm excited for you now, 9th July is only next week! 😬☺️ xx

Annny27 · 02/07/2020 22:13

Cd16 and got my peak today so probably ovulate tomorrow or the next day!

@Missgoldilocks yes not long atall untill the test now and will bring you so much peace when it comes back all clear :D

@Gems7 maybe an early ovulation for you!!

@PrettyTulip how are you lovely?

PrettyTulip · 03/07/2020 04:58

@Gems7 oh yay you're back to it! Glad things seem to be sorting themselves out for you & let's hope you get your static smiley soon :)

@Annny27 I'm okay thanks lovely. Hope you are too? Yay for your peak, it's finally the second part of the cycle ✅

I'm still very much the same. Was meant to have hosp appt yesterday which I obv didn't go to so still in limbo as to what's going on .. started bleeding last night but not enough yet to call it an AF but I hope it gets more as I haven't had a proper period since Nov/Dec (just spotting or very light bleeds that last 2/3 days) xx

Gems7 · 03/07/2020 07:48

@Annny27 the crappy TTW is around the corner for you then! Do you think the TWW gets easier or worse for you as the months go on?
@PrettyTulip I wonder what the heck is going on with your periods.. must be so confusing for you. Have they always been like this or just until you started TTC/came off contraception?
Could it just be a normal AF for you? I only have one day of medium-heavy(ish) bleeding with mine and the rest is not much at all.. xx

Annny27 · 05/07/2020 16:27

thats soo frustrating for you @PrettyTulip! Has your fertility clinic started back up again now?

@gems7 2dpo now for me and I am always calm and hopeful till about 7dpo and then I am depressed and thinking its NEVER gonna happen 🙈🙈 did you ovulate?

@Missgoldilocks I know you are taking a break this month from the boards but good luck for your procedure this week xxx

Gems7 · 05/07/2020 16:48

@Annny27 not yet, still getting flashing smileys, CD13 today for me.. my last cycle of TTC before my BFP I got my solid smiley on the evening of CD14.. so should hopefully be tomorrow 🤞🏻
Have DTD every other day since CD7 and will do it for the next 3 days in a row after today.
Getting really strong ovulation pain this month though.. sometimes it's really painful, and loads more EWCM than I've ever had before.. must all be related to the MC somehow 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yeah that first week after OV is quite calm isn't it and full of hope.. then as AF looms that second week out comes the crazy 🤯
We all deserve a medal really for what we have to go through
Have you had a plan this cycle when timing DTD? Or just random..
xxx

Annny27 · 05/07/2020 16:52

@Gems7 I have soooo much more ewcm now than I used to before the miscarriage! Really strange! Not long to wait then :D we dtd 4 days before ovulation, 2 days before, 1 days before, the day of ovulation and the day after haha. So 4 days in a row 🤣🤣 your dtd schedule sounds like a good plan! I wish we could do just random but if I am honest it wouldn't be enough with my current lack of wanting to dtd thanks to months and months of ttc🤣

Gems7 · 05/07/2020 17:05

@Annny27 isn't it strange about the EWCM... 🤔 I have literally had quite a bit for days now.. had loads earlier today when I went to the loo..
I was lucky if I saw any before my MC.. so weird!

Yeah randoms probably not the best way anymore is it.. scheduled sex is the only way.. if it was random it would never happen 🤣 xx

Missgoldilocks · 06/07/2020 10:27

Hey lovelies

Hope you're all well? Good luck to everyone this cycle

@Annny27 thanks for thinking of me :) if all is well I should get my tubes flushed on Thursday just waiting on the std check to come back otherwise they won't do it. Been taking it really easy and haven't thought about pregnancy or anything and it feels great x

Annny27 · 07/07/2020 10:13

morning :) 4dpo for me and still calm at the moment :p

@gems7 did you get your peak? 🤞🤞🤞

@Missgoldilocks will be thinking of you and hoping that the pain is manageable- are you allowed to listen to music/meditation when you are having it done?

Gems7 · 07/07/2020 13:39

@Annny27 hey hun, yes I did, im just a few days behind you now 😊
I got a second dark like last night and it was even darker today so I assume I will ovulate today CD15..
DTD 2days ago, last night, and will do it tonight and tomorrow so 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 we are both preggers by the end of the month!! Xxx

Missgoldilocks · 07/07/2020 14:50

@Annny27 my partner is allowed in with me so thankfully he can hold my hand and make me feel calm. I'm still waiting on these results though apparently they'll be back tomorrow but you just never know x

Gems7 · 09/07/2020 07:11

@Missgoldilocks good luck today mrs! I hope it is pain free and doesn't take long. Let us know how you get on, will be thinking of you xx

Missgoldilocks · 09/07/2020 09:52

@Gems7 thank you!! I'm shitting bricks! I get my results then and there so I can tell you girls around 12.30 or so xxx

Annny27 · 09/07/2020 10:09

Yes good luck!! @Missgoldilocks 🤞🤞🤞

6dpo now for me, no symptoms as expected haha. How about you @gems7

Gems7 · 09/07/2020 10:24

@Missgoldilocks it will all be over soon and then you can forget about it and get baby making!!

@Annny27 2DPO for me I think, I had really strong OPK's this cycle for a few days in a row.. and such strong ovulation pain. I've felt crampy and a bit bloated all morning too, what the chuff is going on! 😂 I definitely don't think it's going to happen first cycle for me after the miscarriage (I'm really not that lucky) so must just be my body getting used to it all again 🤷🏻‍♀️
You're almost into the obsessive part of the TWW then! 😁 xx
