@Suki2020 is it worth you taking a pg test just in case?

@xoJellyBean I'm not really thinking about it all that much but according to apps I'm 4/5 dpo.

@hollywhooo I know.. The lack of symptoms is worrying, honestly thought at my dating scan they were going to tell me I was an idiot there's nothing there, but literally as soon as they put it on my belly I saw a little baby shape and I instantly relaxed. My boobs have never really been sore (which is surprising as pre af they hurt a lot) they hurt on and off but never unbearable.. I have noticed a bit of leakage every now and then now which is weird.. Aww good luck telling your parents! I told my mum at about 5 weeks! Have you contacted the midwife/gp yet?
I have my anomaly Scan on Tuesday and starting to get nervous now! Oh and I'm now officially over half way!! How crazy is that!? 20+3 today! X

@Newbie0818 I will test if af doesn’t arrive next week, but I don’t think I’ve ovulated as my temp is a lot lower than normal. I think my body tried but failed.

Does anyone else think I’ve not ovulated?

@Suki2020 it's difficult to say really because it is technically above cover, but not much :/

Hi ladies, it looks like I'm back in the TTC club. My BFP turned out to be a chemical and I started bleeding yesterday at 5+6. Trying to remain hopeful that at least I've proved I can get pregnant but I'm still gutted.

Pol96 · 08/09/2020 15:29

@JanQi so sorry to read this. Big hugs x

hollywhooo · 08/09/2020 19:17

So sorry @JanQi ❤️

Hello!

Long cycle Q! My last cycle was 53 days when I usually have 35ish day cycles?

For the last few days I've had a verrrrrry light period. I was expecting a bad one coz I was so late. But tonight I have really bad what feel like mid cycle pain. Definitely doesn't feel like period pain.

On my last cycle, I got flashy smileys for 7 days starting cycle day 15. Had I had a "regular" cycle, I think I would be around that time now. Do you think that even though I'm technically only cycle day 5, that I could also be in my fertile window?

I have no OPKs in the house or I would just pee on a stick!

Why is this so hard!

restingbface · 08/09/2020 21:41

Hi everyone, did SMEP & also took soy isoflavones last cycle and just got AF today! Usually have 43-53 day cycles and this one has only been 26 ! X

Suki2020 · 09/09/2020 08:13

Sorry to hear that @JanQi

Suki2020 · 09/09/2020 08:17

@doublecheeseburgermediumfries have you taken pg test?

JanQi · 09/09/2020 10:36

Thanks @Pol96 @Suki2020 and @hollywhooo ❤️

I feel a little better today and trying to see the positives. We're planning on trying again straight away, but I'm considering not bothering with BBT etc and just aiming to DTD every other day throughout the month to take some of the pressure off (although I'm not sure either of us have the stamina to keep that up long term 😂)

It's so frustrating having long cycles because I just want to jump straight back in and feel like we're moving forward immediately.

SarahTTC2020 · 09/09/2020 16:18

Hi everyone,
I got my Day 3 bloods back and she said they were normal. She's going to request my ultrasound, is leaving a pot to pee in at reception for a Chlamydia test and said to book in for Day 21 bloods when I think they might be (so I might track this cycle using OPKs). Also said for DH to request his SA.
She said in our area the upper age limit for fertility treatment is 34.. and I'm 32 and a half so I suddenly feel really nervous!

Neurotic90 · 09/09/2020 17:57

Hi girls, do you mind if I join?

We've been trying since March, but we were NTNP since September 2019 when I came off the pill. Average cycles have been 48-51 days since then, until this time when I'm on CD 93 Sad. No idea what's happening but going on the assumption I've skipped a period and hoping AF comes soon. Going to try temping and soy isoflavones next cycle I think.

Good luck everyone!

xoJellyBean · 09/09/2020 22:17

@SarahTTC2020 I didn't even know there was admit on the fertility treatment! That's ridiculous and puts so much pressure on people... 34 is still young! Hope you get your bfp soon❤️ we have a lucky thread here🥰

@Neurotic90 welcome 😊 I'm sure that's so frustrating for you! Feel free to rant here any time you need, it's been a great help for me at least lol

OP posts:
SarahTTC2020 · 10/09/2020 08:13

@xoJellyBean yeah I was surprised to hear it was so young, I was thinking 38 maybe. DH actually phoned the GP straight after to get referred for his SA so I hope he's not worrying after my bloods came back normal.

Newbie0818 · 10/09/2020 17:00

How's it going everyone? Sorry I haven't had a chance to scroll through so sorry if I've missed anything big x

xoJellyBean · 10/09/2020 20:51

@Newbie0818 heyyyy there how are you feeling?! @hollywhooo got her bfp❤️❤️

OP posts:
Newbie0818 · 11/09/2020 06:20

@hollywhooo yesss I saw!!! How you feeling?

@xoJellyBean I'm ok thanks, just getting back into the flow of work (teacher) and trying not to stress out. Im 10dpo today and had a bit of a temp dip so I'm not very hopeful.
How are you?

Newbie0818 · 12/09/2020 07:21

Af arrived after a spontaneous morning baby dance just now so I'm out :( means I can organise seeing the doctor now though☺️ how's everyone?

xoJellyBean · 12/09/2020 10:06

@Newbie0818 ahhh sorry about af! How long was your cycle this time? I'm on cd29 with sore boobs so af just around the corner for me too

OP posts:
Neurotic90 · 12/09/2020 11:24

Sorry about AF @Newbie0818! She arrived for me too this morning, relief given it was CD96 though.

Think I'm going to take the soy CD2-6 and hope it brings ovulation forward and shortens my cycle.

Plm28 · 12/09/2020 11:41

Think I may need to join ladies. Currently cd42. Second cycle after coming off the pill

Elakiya · 12/09/2020 20:15

@Tink2019 How are you? Did they check for the babies heartbeat yet?

Tink2019 · 12/09/2020 21:11

@Elakiya They scanned on Monday and there was a heartbeat ❤️ We're so so happy. 12-week scan is in 3 weeks, but we're going to wait until our screening tests are back to tell most of our friends and family as high HCG levels can mean a higher chance of a baby with Down syndrome. Hope you're doing ok x
