@HE88 ah ok, hopefully you won't have to wait long for a scan xx

VP91x · 15/08/2020 18:30

@Northernsoul90 bloods haven't come back yet, hopefully Monday! They are more to confirm what I already know - not ovulating. More ammo for gynae on 16th Sept. They will be the ones to put me on a metformin/clomid combo and go from there. Hopefully the clomid will make me ovulate. I'm hoping that if I actually ovulate I will be able to fall pregnant, without anything further. Xx

@VP91x Me too I really hope you get the outcome you want and that things move forward for you 🤞🏼. Did you just work out you weren't ovulating by doing opks/bbt? Xx

VP91x · 15/08/2020 18:43

@Northernsoul90 yeah that's the only way really I've figured it out, plus my cycles are so irregular so I never know what on earth to expect. On most cycles too I've had spotting about 4 days before AF xx

@Northernsoul90 I do feel sorry sometimes for our OHs, they just get so worn out but I've told DH he needs to be on top performance for when our fertile week comes up! You sound like you're well covered and got a good plan in place. Have you done anything nice so far this weekend?

@Northernsoul90 @VP91x I'm doing ok today, I'm CD5 today and I think AF will be gone by tomorrow. I've had a really nice chilled day, got my hair balayaged and cut which feels amazing after so long without any pampering! I wanted to pop to The Range to buy useless tat for the house but it was almost Monsoon weather so have just been chilling at home.
Has puppy arrived @VP91x ?

@MichT4 totally get when OH winds you up for no reason. Sometimes I can't stand looking at mine lol poor guys probably wondering what they've done to deserve it 🤣

VP91x · 15/08/2020 19:00

@MrsK21 oh your hair sounds amazing! I haven't dyed my hair in years and it's just dark brown and boring I think, haha. Glad AF is nearly over for you. Will you do OPKs this month?

Not yet! I really cba to cook tonight 😩 xx

OP posts:
Will867 · 15/08/2020 19:04

@VP91x no I haven’t done another tbh I just kinda thought that’s probably it because of the blood test, not sure how sensitive they are. Not sure if a&e and the hospital do them automatically while doing the Routine bloods as well, they asked if I might be pregnant but I said I had a negative hcg so dunno 🤷🏻‍♀️

HappyVibes · 15/08/2020 19:07

@eclipsechips oooh what is ferning please hun? I’ve never heard of this but find new things interesting xx

VP91x · 15/08/2020 19:08

@Will867 no absolutely not, HCG blood tests are about as sensitive as a FRER so about 6-10miu still needs to be present. I would definitely do another test tomorrow! No they probably wouldn't do them routinely. Xx

OP posts:
Will867 · 15/08/2020 19:19

@VP91x ah ok I just assumed, thank you. I probably will do another in the next few days.
When do you get your new pup? Tbh I’d probably be like your oh and annoy my oh lol I scare the crap out of mine just while he’s driving and I see a puppy and get excited or I’ll ask to go and make a fuss of someone else’s pup he gets so embarrassed by me lol

eclipsechips · 15/08/2020 19:21

@VP91x it’s a dry food that the breeder had her on, we’ve continued with it as we won’t look at changing until she’s 6 months.

@HappyVibes it’s a little mini microscope thing that you put a drop a saliva on (before eating or drinking or brushing your teeth) and when you’re not fertile it pebbles but around ovulation time it starts to fern.

HappyVibes · 15/08/2020 19:22

@eclipsechips oh wow how interesting that sounds. Xx

VP91x · 15/08/2020 19:29

@Will867 I know yeah I used to think it would come up so much quicker in bloods.

He will arrive in the UK at some point in the next few hours🤞. Haha, he is absolutely obsessed. Xx

OP posts:
Will867 · 15/08/2020 20:19

@VP91x aw so excited for you both xx

Northernsoul90 · 15/08/2020 21:53

@MrsK21 I know me too I feel like I'm such a slave driver sometimes 🤣. I had a few drinks with my friend last night, had a really quiet lazy day today and going walking tomorrow. Have you been up to anything nice? Your hair sounds lovely! I really like balyage! Xx

Will867 · 15/08/2020 22:34

So looks like I am out this month just had some spotting and cramping only cd25, since mc I have spotting for 3-4 days before af not sure if this is normal?

HopeForRainbowbaby · 16/08/2020 06:27

Hallo ladies... so it looks like chemical at the end. Tests got lighter and I have started to have brown blood:(

MichT4 · 16/08/2020 07:31

@Will867 sorry to hear about your story with the hospital and that you now think AF is here.
I know you said you saw the line already but could it be implantation related? Or is CD25 the day your pre AF spotting usually starts?

@HopeForRainbowbaby I'm so sorry that it's turned out that way. It's such a cruel thing. I hope you have something nice planned for yourself today.

@VP91x how's the pup? How was your temp?

Hope everyone has lovely sundays xx

Lollol86 · 16/08/2020 08:11

@HopeForRainbowbaby I'm so sorry, life can be so cruel at times xx

@MichT4 did you test again? Xx

VP91x · 16/08/2020 08:12

@Will867 is it alot of spotting? If minimal, I would try another test still and then contact GP if you've been spotting for 4 days pre-AF for a few cycles.

@HopeForRainbowbaby ah, I'm so so sorry. I can't believe this 😩. Sending you such a big hug. Please contact your GP so they can offer you some testing or support xx

Pugprincess · 16/08/2020 08:13

Morning ladies,
@HopeForRainbowbaby I’m so so sorry to hear that 😔 hopefully you will be even more fertile now and catch a strong bean next month 🤞🏻

I hope everyone else is good? Throwing it down where I am X

VP91x · 16/08/2020 08:14

@MichT4 I cannot get this pup to stay still for a picture 😩😩 will get some when he is back from his walk. I'm so wary with little Bella around him, it's making me a bit of an anxious wreck. I think if it was a tiny little fluffy pup I'd be better, but he's the same size as her 😂

Welcome to my wonderful world of messed up temps...

@Pugprincess how are you? Xx

MichT4 · 16/08/2020 08:33

@VP91x I think you ovulated! Surely?

So are you happy with the pup? Or was this OH driven?

@Lollol86 no not this morning. Will do tomorrow. I think it'll be the same story for me though, sadly xx

Pugprincess · 16/08/2020 08:37

@Lollol86 hi 👋🏻 I’m ok hanging on in there. I had some more pale brown yday I will attach photo. Did my cb this morn and still on 2-3 weeks. Did some research though and the hormone has to be quite high to get your 3+, you only need 153 hcg to get 2-3 but need 2753 to get 3+! Then everyone’s different hcg levels so like a 5 week preg can range from only 18 up to 7,340! I read ladies on other forums say not to waste money and that some got 3+ then went back down to 2-3 and thought they were losing it but they were fine, can depend on strength of urine as these early stages. The good news is though compared to last time my easy@home is very dark. So hopefully it’s all normal an hopefully the spotting stays light or goes away 🤞🏻 1 week 5 days until the scan.
How are you?
