@minster2012 ivf I imagine!

Minster2012 · 25/06/2020 22:33

Ah, I assuming it was just natural TTC @Juno231

Cocoblue22 · 25/06/2020 23:02

@blodyn91 no I don't do bbt! Just the CB advance fertility monitor computer thingy that was expensive enough x

@lucyrp once a day is good going in this heat I'm hoping for that later!! Aww everyone is allowed a grumpy day wish your af would hurry up we need you back in the FW x

Cocoblue22 · 25/06/2020 23:05

I've read the last few comments and don't understand any of them might be because I've had a fair few gins this evening 😬 x

Vil10 · 25/06/2020 23:08

@lucyrp mines the same!! It is way too hot isn't it!!

Mococo1 · 25/06/2020 23:14

Sorry I've been so rubbish on here thought best to have a few days away to help my mental state and get over his horrendous clotttjng I'm having post CP or 'MC' as they put it at the EPU!

@skip86 massive congratulations to you!♥️♥️

@stabal so sorry AF has come it's such a let down ☹️ have you been to EPU? X

IM LITERLAKY MELTING IN THIS HEAT 😩😩😩😩

Stabal · 25/06/2020 23:44

@Mococo1 I rang after work and they told me if I'm still testing positive after my bleed finishes then to ring them and they'll have me in for bloods. I also asked about the HSG test I was waiting for before my miscarriage and they advised to go ahead and get it done as one tube could be clear and the other blocked.. So I'll get that done next cycle! Joy! 😂

Skip86 · 26/06/2020 03:22

Literally all the ladies on this thread:
"30 degrees! I can't even."
"I'm MELTING"
"Don't touch me, so sticky"
"It's just so HOT 😩"

The Aussie:
"Geez this 5th straight day in the 40s is getting a bit much, I'm actually starting to sweat."

🤣🤣🤣 you would all actually DIE here.

SmileyT · 26/06/2020 07:20

@Skip86 haha it's so true, but in our defence the country is not set up for heat or snow for that matter. My friend has just got air con in her flat and says it's changed her life, I don't mind it being hot outside but indoors in houses that are built to keep in the heat is a bloody nightmare 😩 plus us British just love to moan about the weather whatever it is 😂 how are you feeling today?

@lucyrp don't know why I was randomly thinking this morning about your temps, are you still taking them?

I'm so bloody hungover this morning it's not normal 😭 but had some drunken sex last night and actually tried the wheelbarrow without even planning to @Minster2012 💁🏾‍♀️ who is still in fertile period and wants to suggest some other things to try? x

OP posts:
lucyrp · 26/06/2020 07:27

@SmileyT i carried on taking temps until about 4 days ago so i haven't missed much i wouldn't think but my graph was getting so long. don't know whether i should carry on taking them or not 😬 and yes for the houses being built to keep heat in. my house isn't that old so the insulation is amazing on but horrendous ag the same time 😂

Minster2012 · 26/06/2020 07:27

@Skip86 true dat
We aren't made for this heat. We don't get born with inbuilt coolness & surfboards at birth 🏄‍♀️
You would drown in all the rain here though ☔️

I'm worse, Cos I'm a 🐆 I have to run from shade spot to shade spot (I don't, I'm an idiot) it doesn't seem to be disappearing either despite finishing my immunotherapy

Minster2012 · 26/06/2020 07:28

Yasss for drunken wheelbarrow sex @SmileyT how was it?!!

Cocoblue22 · 26/06/2020 07:53

@Skip86 I can't even imagine the heat where you are we would love to go to Australia one day! Do you have air conditioning everywhere? Do you have it in your house? That's the problem here we're not used to it so we have no way of cooling down. I had a very interrupted 4 hours sleep I was so hot! X

@SmileyT snap! I'm hungover too! Too many gins in the garden and stayed up with the log burner on until 2am when all the wood ran out! X

@Minster2012 is it the drugs that have done that to your skin? Did they say it would fade afterwards? X

blodyn91 · 26/06/2020 07:54

@Minster2012 do you use a special cream for your skin? One of my best friend skin was like that, I can't remember what she used but all the patches have gone now.
No wheel barrow-ing here yet sorry
Another slight temp rise this morning, so I think I have definitely ovulated, felt so sick/ had weird abdominal pain last night for a good 10mins, thought I had food poisoning, but google says thats probably not ovulation pain 😆

Newbie0818 · 26/06/2020 07:58

@Juno231 ugh I hit my mark on that chart already 😖

@Katao oh yes I remember you saying! Hmmmm. Might be worth taking a hcg test just in case? Or just keep dtd!

@Skip86 haha I know! I grew up in Dubai so 30 is nothing to me! Though we did have air con there, could do with that here sometimes.

Skip86 · 26/06/2020 08:38

Aah yes I do remember arriving in London on its hottest day of 2012 (30 I think), getting straight on the tube and thinking wtf?! Almost unbearably hot and stuffy!
@Cocoblue22 we only have an air con in the nursery, rest of the house just fans!
@Minster2012 hey I can't help my innate coolness 😎 aw that's no fun! Do you just get that in warm weather?
@SmileyT I'm good thanks! Just counting down to my day tomorrow of pigeon shit shovelling, but otherwise good 😄 how was the wheelbarrow?

Minster2012 · 26/06/2020 08:47

@cocoblue22 yes it's a positive side effect from my immunotherapy/chemo drugs in that it shows it's boosted my immune system (so weirdly they've over produced melatonin) to try & fight any cancer cells inside but it's quite a rare side effect, we thought it would go having been off it for over a year but no sign yet! @blodyn91 no I don't have any cream for that, just mega sun cream, which is an Aussie one I've found best! What cream has your friend used? Strange on the pains though, I think we are all just hyper aware when TTC 🤔

You are using your log burner @cocoblue22, sounds like a lovely night though!

We have a mini air con unit in our bedroom which is lovely, one we bought last year for £400 I think as our room is tropical otherwise

Katao · 26/06/2020 09:22

@Newbie0818 I did a hcg test yesterday, couldn't help myself, snow white. I think I may have been overreacting, I took another opk this morning and it looks the same as yesterday which really isn't near peak at all just higher than i would have expected. Maybe it just stays like that for a while after ovulation. I don't usually keep taking tgem after ov. They just are usually very light early in the cycle so expect them to be back to that after peak too🤷‍♀️ lots of dtd anyway so all good. We are enjoying our freedom now after the swaying attempt which was a bit scheduled 🤣

blodyn91 · 26/06/2020 09:38

@Minster2012 just messaged her, shes currently in NZ working so not sure when shell text back, as she was on nights the other day, 'll let you know 😊 It took months but it all cleared up, was all across her face.

blodyn91 · 26/06/2020 09:39

re pain, decided to just DTD in case 😆 It was definitely a bit forced, now we have joked we should call our child storm if we convieve this cycle 🤭

Juno231 · 26/06/2020 10:10

@Newbie0818 although I was pleasantly surprised to see the average was that high! So you'd still be in the normal range if that's just the average hopefully?

1DPO and feeling optimistic, even though we didn't manage to DTD yesterday as OH was dying from the heat. (@skip86 I'm in a south facing flat with triple glazing so it's a sauna!). We did still get O-1, O-2 and O-4 in so I'm sure we're covered!

Franklydear · 26/06/2020 10:23

I haven't catch up, I just want to say, boss called, she is giving me next week off, and to wait if the company will let me have July off, even without to fully shield anymore

Mococo1 · 26/06/2020 10:43

Hey everyone I think this is just my hormones messing

I've finished bleeding and HCG is now fully cleared from my system (negative pregnancy test from day2 of my bleed and with confirmation of a subsequent blood test at the doctors on tues) I'm what I would assume now as CD8 as I thought I would test LH to see if I'll ovulate next week. But this seems pretty high to me? Any chance I could ovulate before CD16 or do u think it's my hormones messing x

Juno231 · 26/06/2020 10:52

@Mococo1 that's registering on the very low end of "high". Doesn't seem like unusual amount at CD8, could still take you days to ramp up for ovulation. I would however guess it might happen before CD16 this time!

Mococo1 · 26/06/2020 11:08

@juno321 thank you..I guess I just figured I don't usually get a peak until CD16 so maybe it will be CD12 for day14 ovulation ! X
