@SlothMamaToBe sorry about your bfn. I tested on CD11 and got a bfn. I had a big dip and temps yesterday and thought AF would definitely be on her way but picked straight back up this morning, hopefully implantation dip???
Been crampy since Monday when I had my transvaginal ultrasound and have GP appointment this morning to discuss my bloods results.

Also just re-read my post and meant I tested on 11dpo not cd11 🤦🏻‍♀️ too early in the morning 😂

SlothMamaToBe · 28/07/2021 17:47

That looks good @LemonDrizzle44! Fingers crossed it stays up for you!
I’m fighting the temptation to test again but it’s difficult. After seeing blood stained cm this morning I don’t think there’s much chance for me.

LemonDrizzle44 · 28/07/2021 18:12

@SlothMamaToBe its soo tempting to test! If temp is still up tomorrow I may try an IC again.

Had my GP appointment this morning. Bloods indicated PCOS, but ultrasound clear. So not sure what going on. I do have a haemorrhagic cyst on my right ovary but this should reabsorb itself. Being referred to gynaecology for further investigation.

SlothMamaToBe · 29/07/2021 09:51

It’s good you are having investigations @LemonDrizzle44 . Weird ultrasound clear but bloods might be pcos though - hopefully gynae can explain things more.
Did you test today?
My temp gone down a bit more again today so I’ve not bothered and had a bit of light brown/pink spotting so I feel she’ll be here tomorrow 😕.

acupofteamakeseverythingbetter · 29/07/2021 10:07

@SlothMamaToBe my temp has gone down even further too so going by lasts month temp drop and AF turning up the following day I think that will be the case again 😣

LemonDrizzle44 · 29/07/2021 10:30

@SlothMamaToBe very slight drop this morning from 36.71 to 36.68. Tested BFN. Have a feeling temps will continue to drop now and AF will make an appearance Saturday

SlothMamaToBe · 29/07/2021 12:18

☹️☹️ sorry to hear that both - doesn’t sound great for any of us then @LemonDrizzle44 and @acupofteamakeseverythingbetter - so rubbish!! I’m really at a loss as to what else to do to get that BFP 😔.

acupofteamakeseverythingbetter · 29/07/2021 12:24

Just had red blood when I went to the loo so I'm defo out. Apart from drinking unicorn pee 🦄 I've tried everything this cycle too 😩 I'm also almost positive that my twin is pregnant with her 2nd and I just know she's going to tell me soon and I'm not sure I can face it

SlothMamaToBe · 29/07/2021 12:36

@acupofteamakeseverythingbetter I’m sorry to hear that 😔 that sucks.
Will be very hard if your sis tells you she is pregnant…I know it sounds trite but do be kind to yourself though and allow yourself to feel what you need to feel.

LemonDrizzle44 · 29/07/2021 15:30

@SlothMamaToBe so disappointing. Felt more positive this month too. I'm adding in zinc and inositol to regulate my cycles next month. After that I have nothing else to add.

@acupofteamakeseverythingbetter sorry to hear this. I think a friend is about to announce her pregnancy. It makes this whole process soo much harder. Our time will come 🤞🏻

acupofteamakeseverythingbetter · 29/07/2021 15:32

Thanks @LemonDrizzle44 ❤️ my fiancé keeps telling me that it'll be our turn soon but it's so disheartening each month when AF shows up and we're the only ones of all our siblings and friends to not have children, it's so hard xx

LemonDrizzle44 · 30/07/2021 06:50

15dpo today and my temps are still up around 36.70. With AF due tomorrow I'm usually heading towards the 36.50's or 36.40's. Going to test today with a FRER rather than IC but dreading a bfn again!

SlothMamaToBe · 30/07/2021 07:19

That’s great @LemonDrizzle44! 🤞🤞 for you!
My test was bfn today ,just want AF to start so I can book my hsg.
Had a heart to heart with DP last night , first time ever we said about ‘when do we decide to stop trying’ 😢

Unicornish · 30/07/2021 08:18

Best of luck @LemonDrizzle44!

@SlothMamaToBe that's a painful conversation to have. DH and I have been having similar recently. Do you have any other children? Sending you a handhold.

Belle34 · 30/07/2021 08:41

Hey Ladies, so I finally ovulated on cd 22...looks like my body attempted on cd 15 but failed. Now the dreaded TWW, will put the thermometer aside for the next few days and come back to it 12 dpo and take it easy... last month I went bonkers over every little drop

Sorry to hear about ur bfn @SlothMamaToBe &@acupofteamakeseverythingbetter. Hopefully it happens soon for all of us🤞🍀

@LemonDrizzle44 that's looking positive, good luck with testing, let us know how u get on 🤞

Crossing everything for you @LemonDrizzle44 those temps are looking great.

@SlothMamaToBe that’s a tough one. Seems worse when you say it out loud somehow even though it will have been in both of your minds. Sending hugs.

LemonDrizzle44 · 30/07/2021 10:33

@Hopefulhedgehog @SlothMamaToBe @Unicornish @Belle34 thanks but BFN this morning 😞 will just have to see how temps do over the next couple of days and if AF arrives.

Belle34 · 30/07/2021 12:21

@LemonDrizzle44 sorry to hear about ur BFN. If the temps r still up and there's no sign of AF you may still be in with a chance. Hope this is the case for you 🤞

Unicornish · 30/07/2021 17:15

How disappointing @LemonDrizzle44. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for you but I know how crushing a bfn can be.

Unicornish · 30/07/2021 17:21

Is there any appetite for a few reintroductions, now that we're on a new(ish) thread?

I can start.

I'm 36, have been trying for DC2 for a year now. I had a MMC at 10 weeks last autumn. After trying for a while with no luck, I bought OvuSense and realised I wasn't ovulating regularly. I take myo-inositol now and seem to be ovulating every cycle now thank goodness.

I had the faintest of chemical pregnancies last cycle but af arrived only a day late.

Dd is 5 now and the age gap at this point would be at least 6 years. I have very difficult pregnancies with hyperemesis gravidarum. I think DH and I are moving towards thinking about an end point for ttc. We've kicked the end of the year around but I'm definitely not ready to make the decision yet.

Would love to hear your stories too, and any lurkers who want to join in! Smile

SlothMamaToBe · 30/07/2021 17:43

Thanks everyone 💜. @Unicornish we both have one child each from previous relationships- we are very blessed to have them but we so desperately want one of our own. DP is the love of my life and I’m heartbroken it’s not happening for us 😢 (sorry that may be overly sentimental but AF has just turned up 😔) .
Any sign of her for you @LemonDrizzle44 ? Hope she keeps away!

SlothMamaToBe · 30/07/2021 17:47

@Unicornish good idea to reintroduce!
It sounds like you’ve had a tough last year or so. Sorry to hear you are thinking about stopping ttc too. I’m thinking at a push 2 years ttc as that’s still considered normal length of time isn’t it?
HG is horrible but it’s amazing that despite that women want to go through pregnancy again - we are tough cookies!

SlothMamaToBe · 30/07/2021 17:49

I feel like I’ve been overly present on the thread recently but I’ll do a recap re-intro too!
32 (nearly 33)
DD 10 years old from previous relationship
DP has son also 10 from previous relationship.
TTC approx 17 months 😞
Undergoing fertility investigations
Oh I’m a midwife but clueless about the conception but it seems 😄.
