TTC - Thread 2- a lucky one!

[Blossom428]

Hi guys....
Thought I'd set up this new thread for us.
Tag anyone else from the group I've not got.

@AnxiousAnnie86
@Spinksy9 (thought I'd tag for you to check in with us after your BFP 😆)
@Chlo2701

I know so Annoying isn't it.. just can't predict what's going to happen next! @AnxiousAnnie86

Ohhh let's hope the sickness stays away @Trying4one ! How was your test this afternoon?

@Blossom428 well I bought the wrong tests 🤦 so I ended up using a digital one that I had left over from my clear blue early detection pack.

Well that's good it's showing on the digital one 🙌🏼🙌🏼 congratulations!! @Trying4one

@Blossom428 finally got my static!!! Cd30!!! X

Omg!!! Yesss... been a long time coming, but get bonking quick!!! Haha. @AnxiousAnnie86 OH best be in the mood for sure.

@Blossom428 we dtd last night anyway, but we tried this morning and he couldn't ermmmmm complete the mission 😂 hopefully we will tonight

How you feeling? X

Ohh good!! Do you tell him that you've got your static?
@AnxiousAnnie86
I'm doing okay thanks, 6dpo today. I had weird stabbing pains down below yesterday and feel a bit crampy which I don't usually get. Dreading this week as I know I'll be symptom spotting like crazy! So hard not to!! Off on a walk today so trying to keep busy 😊

Wow, congratulations @Trying4one! Brilliant news x

AF finally showed up last Sunday and has been very heavy this week with loads of blood clots! It's virtually stopped though. I've got a blood test booked this week, do you think it's still worth going to see what could have caused it to be so late?

@AnxiousAnnie86 weirdly this month I got flashing 13-14 then static 15-16... last time I checked I didn’t get flashing til cd24 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ Is earlier flashing a good thing? I’ve no idea

@Blossom428 yeah he knows! Hoping I can convince him now!!! When it gets to Cd30 and we've been trying all month it gets tiring lol!!!!
Anything out of the ordinary is good so fingers crossed for you when is AF Due?

@WaitingForEgg at least you didn't have a long wait!!! It's the absolute worst waiting for ovulation, I hate it was more then TWW

Ow I can imagine!! Hope he gave you his sperm tonight!! @AnxiousAnnie86
Well last cycle was the longest Lp yet, I got brown spotting cd11 and 12 then AF showed properly on cd13.
So this cycle, Friday will be 11dpo.

I really don't know what to suggest @bwfcchick88 ... unless they take your bloods like the ones early on they do in the cycle. Maybe worth going and you can at least just chat to them, and so they are aware of the situation.

Thanks, Blossom.. my appointment is just for a blood test this week then I may have a follow up which will possibly be done over the phone.. Will keep you posted.

@Blossom428 he didn't he really tried abs then ended up getting so cross about it didn't want to continue!! This has been going on for a few weeks now, he started taking some supplements a few weeks ago and we read up and it says this can be a side effect! Typically something that was supposed to help fertility has effected it! He's not going to take it today abs hopefully tonight will be okay! Last chance saloon. Not sure it will be enough! Still getting positive opks so hopefully it won't be too late.

It's really good news about your LP phase! It's now classed within normal range so that's really great for you! Any symptoms yet???? X

Ahhhh... that's frustrating if you think it's something that is meant to aid fertility! My Oh was like that on the day of my ovulation- so it just didn't happen unfortunately.
I get guys sometimes feel pressured, or stressed, or not in the mood which is hard, as they can see how frustrated or sad we feel about that.
Hopefully tonight will be okay 😊🤞🏽 @AnxiousAnnie86

Yes I'm happy about my LP now, from taking the B vitamins, really helped! Had little cramps going on, but nothing more.

@chlo2701 @Gemster19 @TheOrangeMonster how you guys getting on, feel I've been disconnected this month.... some months are just so disheartening x

Hey @AnxiousAnnie86 I'm ok, CD6 here so at that really boring stage. Really struggled with this AF as first 2 days were heavy & painful, had awful PMT last wk & to top it off I ended up at the doctors so I'm also on antibiotics as turns out I have an infection in my boob🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️ was bloody painful! Luckily this week I'm feeling back to normal. Last wk was so shit I just needed to hide from the world for a wk🙉
I'm glad to see you finally ovulated even though it was bloody late! But at least it happened & it wasn't while you were away without OH👏🏼
Hope all you other ladies are ok?? Xx

@Chlo2701 oh my gosh!!! When it rains it pours right!!!? When are you expecting to ovulate? I absolutely hate the first half of cycle!!

It may as well of been when away!! We did it the day before OV and I think the day after so think I've missed it xx

I'm thinking I might stop wearing ava this month, I m pretty sure I ovulated now as had two days of positive opks and now back blank. I think the watching temps constantly heart rate etc etc makes me obsess I think I may just switch off from it all now for this month, and start again next.... I'm supposed to keep wearing it every night but feel I have had enough seeing as I'm cd31 and still have another 14 days!!! X

Yeah I'm the same with temping @AnxiousAnnie86 ... it took temp day after ov to check I had ovulated, and now I've just stopped, as it only brings more worrying or feeling disheartened. So just waiting to see what happens.
Might be good for you to take the Ava off like you say. Give your mind a bit of a break from constantly checking.
I also was the day before ov- so we shall see. I did see on another thread day before is a good one to have in as the sperm is already waiting. So fingers crossed for us!

So to hear Af turned up with such force @Chlo2701 ... I guess just waiting for ov now, you don't ovulate late though do you, so hopefully next week!

@Blossom428 temp didn't go up on ava today but think I only ovulated yest aft, but just gonna leave it off and assume i did!! I'm off next week from work so just gonna try really relax this tww! Would be lovely to find out this month if pregnant as it's my bday a few days after I'm due on, last year I miscarried on my bday! Think that coincidence would be too much!!!

Not long to go now for you!! Will you test early or wait for AF

Yeah! I'd say that you've ovulated and count today as 1dpo. It can take another day for temp to increase anyways.@AnxiousAnnie86
I'll probably test early haha! We'll leave as long as possible.
I've got a meal in Manchester on Saturday(12dpo) and staying in hotel with OH so kinda need to know if I can drink or not. (Not turns well if I come on, damn). Although I know that 12dpo can sometimes be early to test, but if I start spotting before then, then I will know it's not happens anyways.

As white as white come on FRER this morning - 10dpo, I know still can be a bit early.
But really think I'm out this month. I just don't feel anything, like no sore boobs or anything.

@Blossom428 what symptoms would you normally have by now? 10DPO is early, but it's good your LP Is extending!!! X

Ermmm, I don't know really. I don't usually get much cramping before AF. She's usually quite good to me and and don't suffer with any pain or cramps during.
Back when I first came off the pill before AF I did get tender boobs, but that stopped now. I've had some twinges, and I did temp this morning just to be curious (which it was still high). We'll see. Spotting started 11dpo last cycle.

@AnxiousAnnie86 how are you feeling not having ava on? Feeling a bit more relaxed?

@Blossom428 well no spotting and temp still high is a Great sign!!! I have everything crossed for you! When will you test again?

I'm only 3dpo 😩 but does feel better without ava!!! Although I know we didn't get timing right and have no chance, so kind of just want this cycle to hurry up and be over, gonna go without soy isoflavones next month too and just see what happens x
