Hi ladies,

How are we all? Sorry i have missed quite a lot, I don't seem to get notifications anymore 🙈It is actually so hot here today, I have had to come back inside as I was dying outside!!

Welcome to all of the new ladies, you have picked a good place to be 😃the ladies here are such a supportive bunch and between us all we have experienced most of the hurdles TTC throws at you!

@CoalCraft congratulations fantastic news!!

@XjustagirlX thats good to hear that your body is doing what its meant to be doing right now, shocking that the doctor gave you the wrong results though.

Has anyone thats waiting for testing been contacted to say when things will resume?

Mamainmaking · 06/05/2020 22:42

I have constant pain in right pelvis and also back pain? Is it a symptom..nevermind we will know in next 3 daysWink

Etonmess20 · 07/05/2020 07:45

@Mamainmaking I'm the same, everything feels like a symptom! Fingers crossed for you!!!

Annny27 · 07/05/2020 10:21

Morning everyone:) cd10 here and little bit of ewcm yesterday, low opks so ovulation probably in a few days!

@Lozzlepop yep the weather is lovely here now. Hope it lasts for the Bank Holiday!

@kiza not sure how much my DH produces but it always leaks out of me regardless 🙈 I used to get really worried about leakage but we managed to conceive the first time so obviously some of it gets to where it needs to go 🙈

@CoalCraft congratulations lovely that's amazing that you caught your window :D enjoy your pregnancy xxx

@orangeloo I really hope these suppositories work - either for a bfp or for less spotting :D that's fantastic!

@Etonmess20 I am actually giving up on symptom spotting this month because each month I am absolutely convinced I am pregnant when I am not 🤣

Etonmess20 · 07/05/2020 10:30

@Annny27 lol it's horrendous isn't it! 😂 I can't cope with the symptom spotting anymore!

mrsmumsy00 · 07/05/2020 11:05

Hi everyone! Can i join?

Currently around 7 DPO, ttc for 7 months now with our 1st dc!

Been feeling unusual yesterday and today! RHR is currently up a little and feeling some twinges and slight sickness to! telling myself not to test until 10DPO but i'm deffo a poas addict!!

praying for all the may BFPs💞

Mamainmaking · 07/05/2020 12:39

Yes @Etonmess20 I am praying for you as well,I am planning to test tomorrow or day after tomorrow Smile
@mrsmumsy00 try to wait till 14dpoSmile I know its really difficult and we all are more or less in a same boatSmile lets keep the boat floating

Etonmess20 · 07/05/2020 14:13

@Mamainmaking oooh let us know how you get on!

Had a call from my local hospital today & they have arranged for me to have the scan with dye to check my tubes are clear (unless I get my BFP before of course) so that's been a positive! When I was given my 4 months on clomid (in the first cycle of using it currently) I was told the scan wouldn't be until afterwards so I'm pleased that'll be another issue possibly ruled out

Mamainmaking · 07/05/2020 16:14

@Etonmess20 wow you got an appointment! To get an appointment here in Germany is a work of patience Grin

Etonmess20 · 07/05/2020 16:20

@Mamainmaking I hadn't realised you were based in Germany, is the health system much different there?
The only annoying thing is that if this 1st clomid cycle doesn't work we will have to stop TTC for a month as I'd been told you're not to have unprotected sex beforehand ☹️

Kiza · 07/05/2020 17:12

@Etonmess20 are you talking about the HSG test? If it is that and not the lap and dye test then with the HSG you phone them on the 1st day if your AF and they book you in within the next 10 days. You are then not allowed to have sex from 1st if AF until you have the test. However can have sex afterwards as the HSG is some after you finish bleeding but before you ovulate. The reason you cannot have sex from day 1 of AF until the test is they cannot risk you being pregnant. So you can still TTC that cycle and no cycles are lost.
Phone your consultant and clarify the exact name of the test you're having.

Etonmess20 · 07/05/2020 17:25

@Kiza I'm waiting for her to send my appointment letter through but she has booked me in on what should be approx CD17 of my next cycle. I imagine it's for that reason she's given that advice, she's also told me not to waste the clomid as I won't be able to DTD.
It didn't sound as if there was the luxury of phoning on day 1 unfortunately.
I'm only 27 so I'm not hugely worried about missing 1 cycle, a bit of a break might be quite nice after 18 months TTC.

Kiza · 07/05/2020 17:31

@Etonmess20 ahhh, could be the lap and dye your having rather than the HSG but I'm sure your letter will confirm. They are similar but also different 😄

Etonmess20 · 07/05/2020 17:34

@Kiza hopefully the lady sends the letter through soon because some clarity would be nice! I'm new to all this stuff & she was talking quite quick on the phone so good knows what I've signed myself up for 😂😂

Mamainmaking · 07/05/2020 18:52

@Etonmess20 the health system is super nice but to get that 1st appointment of any doctor there is always a waiting period of 1 or 2 months, until n unless you are dieing 😋
And be positive everything will fall in place..let's be hopeful 🤗

Etonmess20 · 07/05/2020 19:02

@Mamainmaking always got to be positive! Fingers crossed for the next couple of days for you x

Mamainmaking · 08/05/2020 04:55

Hey lovelies,
I got my bfp this morning!!!!!!
Baby dust to you all🤗

Etonmess20 · 08/05/2020 06:19

@Mamainmaking OH MY GOSH!!!! Congratulations!! Xx

Mamainmaking · 08/05/2020 08:33

Hey @Etonmess20 thank you very much! But right now i have constant mild pain in right side around ovary..hope this is no ectopic pregnancy..I am really worried

Etonmess20 · 08/05/2020 08:39

@Mamainmaking to be honest I don't really know why to suggest, perhaps get a hot water bottle to try & ease it & just see how you go but obviously if you're worried then go to a&e

lizzie198 · 08/05/2020 08:48

@Mamainmaking congratulations and hope the pain eases for you and is nothing serious xx

Annny27 · 08/05/2020 09:42

Congratulations @Mamainmaking :D with your one sided pain, if you get any shoulder pain or any bleeding then call the EPU xxx

orangeloo · 08/05/2020 10:51

Thanks @Annny27 me too :) x

Any symptoms I now have I think ooh maybe. Then I very quickly remember it means absolutely nothing haha.

@Mamainmaking congratulations! Hope the pain eases. Don't do hot water bottle. X

Annny27 · 08/05/2020 18:51

@orangeloo are you in fertile week now?

I had a very high opk today (nearly peak) so imagine it will peak tomorrow on cd12 and then ovulate on cd13. Managed to did yesterday and today which is good :)

@whatsthecraic91 how are you lovely?

orangeloo · 08/05/2020 18:56

@Annny27 no, not just yet only cycle day 6. I actually hate the fertile week haha. So much pressure.
That's good dtd for you, it's so nice when you know you've given that fertile week a really got shot! FX for you.
