@HappyVibes just realised OH actually gonna be out at a friends tonight so it's unlikely we will get to do it tonight now...

I'm okay with that though we caught last cycle DTD at very very similar times around CBD peak result, so fingers crossed it worked again and that I'm as fertile as they say you after right after MC 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

I'll still go off today being ovulation though for counting purposes!

Where are you at in your cycle I missed so much of the threads that I've no idea where everybody is haha

HopeForRainbowbaby · 01/09/2020 14:52

@BEESY90 I'm sorry that they treat you like that :( but how do you feel ? Did symptoms stop?

HappyVibes · 01/09/2020 15:21

@Bl0ndi3 oh yeah I’m sure you’ll be covered lovely with doing the day before & day after ovulation. Definitely sounds like you’re covered woohoo! What a scientific situation this TTC journey is hey?
Thanks lovely I’m currently 10DPO eeek. Xx

Bl0ndi3 · 01/09/2020 15:24

@HappyVibes oooooh how are you holding up?? Any signs?

Yeah I'll aim to DTD tomorrow just to be safe in case today is ovulation and then I'm done and will switch off, enjoy my birthday and then see what the fertility gods have in store for me 😂

Meanwhile I have everything crossed for you!!!

Runnergirl1 · 01/09/2020 15:34

Ladies just a quick one and then I’ll catch up on the thread my friend has had tests on her and her partner and both come back normal. I know a few people on here have gone private for scans to check internally ovaries, tubes etc. Can I be cheeky on her behalf and ask how much these types of procedures are. Many thanks in advance x

DBTJ · 01/09/2020 17:03

@BEESY90 did you go to a & e over the weekend

DBTJ · 01/09/2020 17:07

@Firevie I think the fact you were able to help someone else who could potentially be going through the same thing is a blessing. You never no what that information he told his friend might have mentally done for his friend to uplift him.

Lollol86 · 01/09/2020 17:21

@VP91x so sorry to hear about your other bunny. Any idea what happened? How's Bella been? Xx

Northernsoul90 · 01/09/2020 18:24

@HappyVibes @MrsK21 I can't decide when to test! According to glow af is due Monday so I might try and wait until Tuesday/Wednesday obviously if she doesn't show. Xx

@VP91x So sorry about Milo 😢. I hope you are okay and fingers crossed for ovulation 🤞🏼🤞🏼 xx

Northernsoul90 · 01/09/2020 18:25

@BEESY90 I'm so sorry about how you have been treated! How are you? Has the bleeding settled? Xx

Firevie · 01/09/2020 19:14

Thank you @HappyVibes @Lollol86 @2020wish @DBTJ you’re all so right. I was being selfish and out of line. I’m okay now. Just to clarify he didn’t actually speak to the friend who may be going through the same thing but was told about this friend going through this by his best friend who are luckily not experiencing any such thing. So no advice was offered to THAT friend but yes you’re right in that OH got the opportunity to grief by telling his best friend of what he’s been through.
@VP91x sorry to hear about milo!!!! How’s your cold? But yay to the 42% and EWCM!!!
I also did an OPKS this afternoon and it’s still showing at 0.3?! Last time the decline was rapid. What is going on?! Pic attached xxx

Thanks @Bl0ndi3 My strength and willpower to not test early to symptom spotting is weakening as the days go by haha.

I’m so optimistic and positive that I had it in my mind even before our FW that this is our month. So no matter what my body is or isn’t doing I knew my symptom spotting would be crackers ha. I’m keeping shtum cos I’ve told my husband I’m not telling him any ‘symptoms’ cos I don’t wanna give us false hopes, we will just know from the test ha.

Oooh @Northernsoul90 that would be SOOOO much determination & discipline! You go girl! I envy you. I’m the same with AF suggested Sunday/Monday - but we’ve agreed on Saturday eek. Still feels like a decade away till Saturday and gunna take all my might to wait it out haha xxx

VP91x · 01/09/2020 21:14

@Runnergirl1 I think it varies but at the clinic I was going to get my done for all the bloods (AMH, FSH/LH, Thyroid, Full bloods), 2 scans and. HyCosy procedure(clear your tubes) it was £550. Xx

@Lollol86 How are you feeling? Not long now until yoir scan! The vet said it was likely they had something genetic as they both died of the same thing so so sad. Bella is almost over her cold I feel alot better today too. Xx

@Northernsoul90 @HappyVibes thank you ladies!! Your good wishes worked xx

@Firevie I think it is so difficult in those situations, I don't think you were being selfish. These matters are private and sometimes you don't want to talk about them, but yes sometimes your partners do need someone to talk about this with too. I hope things are all resolved. It definitely looks like your peak was CD17 you will still continue to get fluctuations there's always a baseline of LH in your system xx

I can't believe I can finally say this but I got a peak OPK!!🎉

Sully84 · 01/09/2020 21:20

@BEESY90 sorry to hear you are having to wait. I had to wait a few days for a scan and it was awful, think I was avoiding going to the toilet as much as possible just to avoid seeing what might be there when I wiped. I hope you are able to rest and find some distractions to make the time pass u TIL the scan.

Still waiting for AF, did a test this morning and BFN...now I just want it to arrive so I can look ahead to next month.

@VP91x sorry about the rabbit

Lollol86 · 01/09/2020 21:27

@VP91x glad Bella is feeling better, I generally find kids bounce back so much quicker than we do. I'm ok thank you, have waves of nausea and I think its getting worse. Yes my scan is on Saturday, so scared I'm going to get there and they say it's an empty sac.
Yes so pleased you got a peak, was that today? Have you managed to dtd? xx

Tink20058 · 01/09/2020 21:29

@VP91x glad your starting to feel better and 🎉🎉🎉🎉 to your peak enjoy!!! Xxx

HappyVibes · 01/09/2020 22:06

Yay @VP91x glad you got your peak! This is such amazing news for you and your OH. & into the TWW now eek. This is so exciting. I am truly mega chuffed for you. 💓

Northernsoul90 · 01/09/2020 22:28

@VP91x woohoo! So pleased for you! Enjoy 🥳😉 xx

Pugprincess · 01/09/2020 22:31

Awwww @VP91x so happy to hear about the peak opk! Get dtd 😂😅 I’m sorry to hear about the bunny though 😔

@Lollol86 oooo good luck with your scan! Is it a private one? Don’t know if I put this on here yet but I booked one for Sunday as I want to see if there’s some progression x

Wishingfornumber2 · 02/09/2020 00:16

@VP91x sorry to hear about your rabbit, so sad it has happened again. But so pleased for you that you have got a peak 😄. I’m hoping I follow and get one soon too. What cd are you? I’m cd 20 so hoping it comes soon 🤞

Rainbowhope11 · 02/09/2020 05:23

@MichT4 I'm so sorry to see your news lovely 😢 I hope you and OH are doing okay Xx

@VP91x oh no! I'm so sorry about your rabbit! That's just awful. How are you feeling? Have you been for all your tests yet? That's awesome that your OPKs have gotten dark! I'm crossing everything for you!

I am on CD1 now after taking the 7 day course of Prometrium. AF arrived two days after taking the last dose so at least that wasn't too long. I'm booked for a scan of my ovaries on Thursday and if everything looks okay then I will be given a prescription for Clomid. Fingers crossed it all looks okay. I had an AMH test done, egg reserve is high (consistent with my irregular cycles), and DH went in for a sperm analysis which came back normal. So at least we know that the problem is ovulation for sure and hopefully I'm on the right path to correcting the problem.

On a side note, I would have been due in October, so it would be really nice if I conceive before that 😊 Trying to remain positive

Lollol86 · 02/09/2020 06:53

@Pugprincess yea it's a private one, I will do another one at 10 weeks if this is all fine too xx

Pugprincess · 02/09/2020 07:16

@Lollol86 Yh same here. Tempted to have them weekly 😅🙈 I will be broke. I will see how this Sunday goes and make a plan from there xx

VP91x · 02/09/2020 07:37

@Lollol86 I'm glad you're feeling okay, hopefully the nausea doesn't get too overwhelming. Keep me updated on how the scan goes, I'm sure your little baby is all safe and sound. Yes yesterday, I done one this morning to double check if the levels had gone down and it was even stronger so I am feeling so hopeful that I might actually ovulate this month. I haven't had a positive OPK in so many months.

@Tink20058 @HappyVibes @Northernsoul90 thank you ladies! Still in shock 😂. I've attached a pic of this mornings opk. Blazing positive.

DTD last night and will have a lunchtime quickie today in case my peak starts to go down, I don't know whether to do tonight too to have twice in one day or just wait until tomorrow. What do you all think? Xx

@Wishingfornumber2 I'm Cd13! I can't actually believe I am saying this. Really hope it isn't a false peak and I don't ovulate. Feeling super hopeful. How have your opks been looking? How are you? Xx

@Rainbowhope11 I know it was so sad losing Milo 😭. No not yet I have my scan Friday and hopefully it will confirm ovulation. My blood tests are ready for when I need to check my progesterone so I will book them now for next week. That's brilliant about your AMH and your OH SA. How is he doing btw? He has always been so supportive it seems! Glad the prometrium worked well, let me know how your scan goes! I really hope the Clomid works this month for you xx

Morning everyone.

Am addicted to reading this group! It’s distracting me at work but never mind! Ha! Yes thanks @VP91x for organising the thread.

@MichT4
I’m so sorry you’re feeling down. It must be so emotionally draining to be going through this. Are you feeling better today? I remember having issues and I was receiving NOTHING from NHS or my own private policy so took myself to the Portland Road. They were amazing and was seen in a couple of days. It wasn’t the cheapest but you can’t put a price on emotions and health. I can give you details if you need as they cover such a broad range of ladies health issues. Went back to the same place for my mmc and they followed up with a broad range of follow ups such a bloods, internal scans at several times of my cycle and so much more- they helped with the emotional side too. Not that you will need any of this as I’m sure your body with recover naturally. It’s all just a peace of mind thing isn’t it and always good to have recommendations. Hugs.

@HE88 I never knew what a IUI was. It’s an education on this thread. Good luck! How long have you been trying for? Sorry hope you don’t think I’m being nosey.

@SmileyT good luck with the scan!

@HappyVibes just into my FW so nowhere near testing yet. Line is def getting darker but a way to go yet. Was all ready for DTD last night but DH had some bad news about his dads (my father in laws) health so it didn’t feel right pushing it. Hopefully ok for later though. That’s the problem with this TTC malarkey. Sometimes feels mechanical and it can be a lot of pressure for the guys. Try not to cave!!! You can be strong! You know you’ll be annoyed with yourself if you do and it’s too early to confirm whether the result is valid or not. Hang in there! Thank you for always being sooooo positive!!!

Not that I’m encouraging anyone to test early.... but WHO IS TESTING NEXT? Smile Can we have an update where everyone is in cycle. Wondering if I will get a 2WW buddy. Never had one before.

Have a great day everyone. X
