Anyone missing just let me know your next testing date xx

@Hopeful110 wow that's amazing!! That you were 17 weeks and had no idea!! I suppose as well everyone is different, my friend who has pcos didn't ovulate every month and she's now 15 weeks and it only took her 5 months to conceive! Yeah I could be one of those people who has hardly no symptoms but still have it! I might not even have it until I get my results back I won't know!! I need to stop worrying just in case but it's so hard, and it's my OH 30th birthday this weekend too so if I get bad news on Thursday it'll be horrible!!
Yeah that should work fine then! Ohhh really?? That's good to know!x

@Minster2012 i know 😫 yeah sometimes still feel nauseous. i definitely feel different but don't know why! 😂

@SmileyT yeah they've said those bloods now and not the other ones! oh okay yeah well it will be 7 weeks this weekend so by the end of next week it will have been 2 months 😭 omg saying it out loud makes it seem so long 😫

@lucyrp I think I would lie 🤭 tell them you are having pains and spotting, then demand a test because its affecting your mental health. Wales have relaxed a bit now so might be worth calling again!
I've had another peak this morning CD17, higher than last night, so now ovulation prediction has been moved to tomorrow! Decided not to jump on OH last night incase this happened, as it would then be too many days in a row 🙈 Managed this morning, and will attempt tomorrow morning as well, got to try to remain relaxed 💆🏼‍♀️♀️hope BJs are ok? 😆 (forgot about that whole spit kills sperm chat)
@SmileyT shower sex is soo dry 😩 so is sea sex 🤭🤭

Hospital were useless tbh. Will keep an eye buf everything seems to be calming down now so hopefully leading up to fw soon.

Nonidea what happened 🤷‍♀️ just one of life's mysteries I suppose.

Good luck to all those testing soon xxx

@blodyn91 oh god yeah sea sex & sand sex, great in films. In reality nah!! Good for another peak & having a break last night

I'm in agreeance @Lucyrp & I said that before about phoning & saying it was affecting your mental health & agree with saying you are feeling pain too - push for a scan I def would. Maybe a bit of shoulder pain??

So ladies how was the corkscrew???? Anyone done it?? You are all a bit quiet?

Do we need another challenge for those in FW??

How about the wheelbarrow?? Bit of deep penetration to get those swimmers where they need to be??

@Minster2012 @blodyn91 i don't really know what they'd be testing for though ? what can they do when i'm in limbo ??

Well the doctor just rang with my results for all my tests apart from the hormones one and the coeliac one! Said my iron and thyroid levels are amazing, my ovarian cancer and cysts one has come back really low which is good, I'm definitely not diabetic, he basically said looking at my results I'm really healthy and in good shape! Just waiting for my hormones and coeliac ones now which will take a bit longer and obviously the hormones one is the one I'm most nervous about!!

@lucyrp they should definitely be more on it with you than they are!! I bet it's so draining being in this situation! I really feel for you x

@Vil10 ooo so far so good! they really don't give a crap about me and my TTC obviously 😂😂

@Hopeful110 hi and welcome! As you have PCOS I wouldn't rely on the apps for predictions at all as they are based on formulas of people having relatively regular ovulation and unless I've misunderstood I don't think you'd know if you do?

Also, bear in mind OPKs are not at all recommended for people with PCOS as the hormonal fluctuations makes them unreliable (incl false positives). Tracking is super hard with PCOS and I think the recommendation is just to have regular DTD.

Have you spoken to your gp about going on Clomid or similar?

@lucyrp Id ask to get tested for everything @Vil10 has! That's so good that all results are perfect so far!

@Minster2012 I hate sand! 😆 I like pebble beaches best, or lakes even better, no salt.
Not sure I can get OH out of bed early morning for that position 🙈 might have to pounce on him during lunch before he leaves for work tomorrow. Can't handle another session today 😩 gone are the days of multiple times for multiple days

@Lucyrp I guess, as you've only had negative pregnancy tests haven't you?

Argh so hard for you.

@vil10 that's really good so far then!

@blodyn91 give it a shot

I'm hoping I get my blood results back today though I'm not sure they will show anything 🤷‍♀️

Hm, got a proper high OPK result just now on fairly diluted wee so I'm gonna guess I'm ovulating tomorrow. It's making me second guess whether I should have counted my two days of spotting before AF as CD1 as I'm only on CD11 today and that doesn't seem right.

DTD on the 21st and 23rd so far so luckily we're covered! Hoping for more DTD today and tomorrow to cover the FW properly :)

@Minster2012 I've had one faint positive and then all negatives on another brand🙄

@Juno231 I remember reading not to count spotting, but I got highs yesterday on OPK, peak at night, bigger peak this morning so ovulation now predicted tomorrow, so you might be Friday? Adds another day to your follicular phase 😊

Argggghhhh so my day 21 bloods taken on day 19 show no ovulation. This was told by doctors receptionist so I've queries whether that's Cos they were early or just no chance whatsoever I've ovulated.

Can't help feeling shit though even if too early

So now bleeding has basically stopped 🤷‍♀️

Chalking this up to a weird cycle and moving on :)

Great news so far @Vil10 fingers crossed for the rest of the results xx

@Minster2012 what day are you on now? which day did you think you might have ovulated? I also have no idea what they look for in bloods to confirm ovulation?

@Minster2012 ah that sucks! Hope you get a clearer answer soon.
Everyone seems to be having a shitty time at the moment!

@blodyn91 yeah it's confusing as I've read it both ways tbh! I don't tend to have a dragging high so am expecting it to turn to a proper peak this afternoon/evening but I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

@Blodyn I'm day 21 now, was day 19 on Monday when bloods were taken, they check progesterone levels & something else I think. It should be about 7 days after you think you've ovulated and I think I may have ovulated either one Saturday so only 3 days before or on the weds before. So I think they are invalid anyway but they wouldn't let me go in today to do it as I'm too high risk and I HAD to have the other blood tests on Monday in advance of scans tomorrow

@lucyrp @blodyn91 @Minster2012 @catherinettc Thankyou so much girls! I feel a bit more relieved!x

@Catherinettc omg no way? this is what i'm worried about too. when i finally start bleeding and then think oooo af and then it stops 😬🙈

@Juno231 I think 11 days follicular phase is OK though, below 10 is when it is too early. But thats just me googling, and bet you have googled that already. The later my ovulation is pushed the more worried Im getting about my luteal phase 🙈 CD17 here

@Minster2012 lets just hope it was way too early! Annoying that you cant get them done again, stupid COVID

@Minster2012 that sucks 😫 I'm really hoping the bloods were just taken at totally the wrong time and it hadn't been long enough after ov to register, but can understand why you'd feel down. Can you get them done again tomorrow when you go for your scan? 🤞🏼🤞🏼 for the scan too!! I'll be thinking of you!

@Minster2012 haha I feel like the wheelbarrow is something that would end up with me in a pile on the floor. Funny little sex story for you all (you know I love these), at uni I slept with a lad who I was obsessed with and I'd fancied nearly all year, thought I was being dead sexy putting him on a chair and me going on top. Nah, just ended up losing my balance, falling back and him falling on top of me 🙃

How frustrating for you on the blood tests 😔 hopefully it was just too early for the test, all your signs have to mean something 😩

@Vil10 pleased your first results have come back all clear! Let's hope for more good news from the next lot ☺️

CD25 here, and got the static smiley yesterday on CB. Just as I'd come to accept us only doing it a couple of times before peak, OH initiated it last night 🍆👀 so I'm thinking my pestering has worked 😂 sooo not sure whether to class today or tomorrow as 1 DPO? Either way into the TWW 😬

@TTCmummy2021 nice to see you back x

Hope you're all enjoying this gorgeous sunshine x
