@Kaybobx lol!!! Whoops but yeah it only increases chances doesnt guarantee. Ahhhh how lovely for your cousin then to have two kids.

And having had a child already increases chances of fraternal twins if that runs in your maternal line.

Have a read its so interesting.

Hello all. I had complained to my GP about my treatment with my initial PCOS diagnosis. Long story short, the male GP completely dismissed me but after 2 months of pain, I had a scan which a female GP arranged and I got my diagnosis. I had received my medical notes in the mean time and I've got a 30min appt tomorrow to discuss. She said she will even give me another scan..... I think this is because I complained about the treatment and they will want to make sure all is correct.

I'm glad I'm getting the scan as hopefully any issues will be seen and can get treated (if there is anything other than PCOS).

I did a pregnancy test today just to be certain and it was negative. I will be telling her that I got a previous very faint positive on Thursday and will show her the pics of the result.

Hope everyone is okay xx

candycrush2298 · 21/07/2020 19:54

@ReginaaPhalange great to hear from you. Please let us know when you get the results from the scan. I am glad they are doing scans for you and checking whats happening.

Maybe they can even do a progesterone test to make sure you ovulated? Based on the faint positive followed by the blazing OPKs.

@ReginaaPhalange good luck with the scan, glad you are finally getting somewhere. Keep us posted!

candycrush2298 · 21/07/2020 20:07

@Kaybobx whaaat??? Really omg!!! You totally have an extra what 2% chance of falling pregnant with twins LOL!! But still how badass is that!!! Lol poor hubby 🤣🤣🤣🤣

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 21/07/2020 20:12

@candycrush2298 i dont want an extra 2%!!! Hahaha!!
It will definitely be poor hubby if we end up with 3 kids, he'll never get any ever again!! 🤣🤣🤣

candycrush2298 · 21/07/2020 20:16

Just catching up. Hope everyone's well.

I'm terms of age of first pregnancy 30 is young!

The oldest mother I cared for had her first at 44 and second at 46.

Kaybobx · 21/07/2020 20:35

@candycrush2298 oh yeah i didn't think of it like that!!! Hahahaha 🙈🙈🙈

@snapple21 Hey! Oh thanks, i feel better hearing that, although i feel old now haha. I had a csection with my first and my back has never been the same since. I think by 46 I'll need a walking stick never mind a child 🙈

candycrush2298 · 21/07/2020 20:42

@snapple21 wow really that puts things into perspective. Thanks for that.

@Kaybobx whahahahaah!!! Too bad!!!

I had my son at 24 and I'm 30 now and in much worse shape. I feel like losing a bit of weight my help things but I can't stop eating 😂

PinkRoseFlower · 22/07/2020 10:19

I'm glad 30 is young for having first child... I always worry I've left it too late. If I manage to conceive this year I'll be 31 when I have mine. Hopefully not older as I would like 2 before I'm 35😆 although I would be happy even having 1!

candycrush2298 · 22/07/2020 10:20

@snapple21 lol!!! If you're not crazy overweight, don't have PCOS I wouldn't worry too much. Obviously losing weight will always benefit your overall health. I enjoy snacking myself 🤣

@Kaybobx has AF showed up yet?

So annoyed I woke up so much between 4&5am that I just know my temp is incorrect today. @Elakiya how's your temping going?

What's everyone's thoughts on the ava bracelet? @snapple21 you're a midwife so would you say its just a gimic?

@mummyjojo19 any updates today?

@TTCandImpatient how you feeling? AF at least being kind to you?

snapple21 · 22/07/2020 10:44

@candycrush2298 I've never heard of the Ava bracelet!

candycrush2298 · 22/07/2020 10:55

@snapple21 lol 😆 so its a bracelet that you wear at night and it tracks your BBT so you don't have to remember to take it every morning, it also tracks your hormone levels to determine your fertile days and when you will ovulate and it tracks normal things like stress levels, sleep cycles etc (things that an apple watch or fitbit will do) it also tracks things during pregnancy.

But its only for people who have normal cycles (24-35 days) and is not recommended for people who have PCOS.

candycrush2298 · 22/07/2020 10:58

@PinkRoseFlower you're the same as me!! I also dont want to have children after 35. And if I am only blessed with one so be it but I would like 2.

mummyjojo19 · 22/07/2020 11:07

Hi ladies hope everyone is OK. So a new symptom has come and no sign of aunty flo yet. So basically the last 2 nights I have been woken up to a taste of puke in my mouth but just the taste. Has anyone else experienced this?' Xxx

candycrush2298 · 22/07/2020 11:20

@mummyjojo19 no not at all. How bizarre. Did you Google it? Lol I use Google for everything 🤣🤣🤣

OP posts:
mummyjojo19 · 22/07/2020 11:37

The only thing I found was about a sour taste so I'm not sure I feel really sick today though so will just have to wait and see xx

candycrush2298 · 22/07/2020 12:12

@mummyjojo19 hmmm alright definitely is different. Hope it means something. Keep us posted xx

OP posts:
candycrush2298 · 22/07/2020 12:17

@mummyjojo19 just having a think could the taste of vomit not be related to heartburn? Are you having any mild heart burn or indigestion as that is a common pregnancy symptom so was just throwing it out there lol

OP posts:
mummyjojo19 · 22/07/2020 13:11

I had heartburn a few days ago for a couple of nights but nothing since xx

Kaybobx · 22/07/2020 15:28
