Keeping each other company (thread 2)

@Ladylou17 @Mama500 @FlyOnTheWall89 @Lucyasc @FlipperyGibbet

Just started this new thread because ours is full. Hope the name change isn't confusing 😂 Tagging you too @rita83 if you ever pop back in to say hi! Have I missed anyone? I'm so rubbish with my memory 🤦🏼‍♀️ x

[FlyOnTheWall89]

Congrats @Mama500 ! Lovely to see a BFP on here.

@Ladylou17 I'm 32, nearly 33. My AMH was 10.7 and some clinic deem this low, some normal low, some normal - I have read about far far worse scores and multiple natural pregnancies. It really shouldn't be causing an inside with conception is my understanding. One lady said hers was 9.something and she went on to have 4 children over some years. My LH and FSH were something like 3.8 and 5.5 so not perfect but quite close together. Progesterone was 47 - over 30 is considered to confirm ovulation, over 40 is what fertility experts think is a better level for optimal pregnancy conditions. Hope that makes you a bit more reassured - this is all from internet reading and trawling. I am the personality type that just dives into a knowledge hole when something goes wrong or I don't understand something. Xx

Thank you @Cruz86 and @FlyOnTheWall89 I was nervous as yesterday’s FRER was faint!

Sending good luck to everyone for this month of love! I know we will get some more BFP’s! X

[Ladylou17]

@FlyOnTheWall89 that is reassuring thank you 😊 to be honest I'm wondering if it's truly accurate as I read if you take biotin it can affect the result I stopped taking 48 hours after but wonder if I needed to wait longer. Interesting about LH and FSH hopefully after my progesterone test on Fri I should get the results in a week. How are you doing?
@Mama500 I'm so thrilled for you!
How are you @Cruz86? Rubbish weekend for me dog passed away definitely not helping my stress!xx

[Mama500]

Oh @Ladylou17 I’m so so sorry devastated for you

Xx

[Ladylou17]

Thank you @Mama500 xx

[Janey3090]

How wonderful @Mama500 so nice to see a BFP! Congratulations

[Cruz86]

Oh I'm so sorry @Ladylou17 😞 My dog is literally my sidekick and I can't imagine her ever not being here. Thinking of you, such a sad time ❤️

I'm actually really good thank you! I'm so relaxed this month for some reason. My fertile week is over Valentine's and we have a child-free day/evening on Friday, so I'm just looking forward to spending time together! It's really nice just not thinking about it actually.

@Mama500 how are you doing? Has it sunk in yet? 😂 xx

[Lucyasc]

@Mama500 massive congratulations very happy for you 🥰🥳

@Ladylou17 I'm so sorry to hear about your dog thinking of you xx

@Cruz86 my FW is over now too I feel the same way the last week I was much calmer which was nice but a bit disappointed we didn't make the most of my FW well as much as I wanted only managed twice 🤨 hope everyone is doing ok x

[FlyOnTheWall89]

Oh sorry to hear that @Ladylou17 💕. Sending hugs.

My FW is also over so I am about 4DPO now. Chart attached for those also temping. Obvs our chances are so so so slim at the moment but I'm keen to still track just incase. My OH has made some really good lifestyle changes like not wearing boxers at night etc and has been on Proxeed for about 12 days now. Keeping everything crossed.

[Ladylou17]

@FlyOnTheWall89 @Lucyasc @Cruz86 thanks so much feeling very lost without him.
Yours looks good @FlyOnTheWall89 no crosshairs for me yet but I think I'm 1dpo today, we ended up dtd a lot which I'm hoping is positive but we'll see! 🤦‍♀️
@Lucyasc @Cruz86 glad you're feeling calmer, have you done anything differently that's helped feeling better?
Sending positive vibes to you all xx

[Cruz86]

Do you know when the two times were in conjunction with ovulation @Lucyasc? Or did you not track this month?

I honestly don't know what it is @Ladylou17. I'm not using opks, just temping so I have an idea after I've ovulated. But I think the pressure of waiting for it to happen was getting too much.

Sounds positive for you @Ladylou17!! Good luck with your TWW.

I can't believe you're 4dpo already @FlyOnTheWall89. Your chart looks good! Got my fingers crossed for you, sounds like your OH is making a few good changes.

I'm so behind you both 😩 got ages to wait 😂 xx

[Lucyasc]

@Cruz86 we DTD on the first fertile day and on 3rd Feb as I had a very small amount of spotting and EWCM according to my Flo App that was 2 days prior to ovulation. I've been looking at different ovulation calculators today and the clearblue online ovulation calculator says today is 25% chance I could ovulate whereas Flo App says today is not a fertile day lol so confusing. We are going to try tonight anyway to be safe 🤞🏻

I always track my symptoms etc in the App and keep track of CM and fertile days but not started using ovulation tests yet think we are going to start end of this month. Wanted to put it off until after we got married in March to start using them but it's so hard on us trying to figure out when best to DTD!
@Ladylou17 I havent been doing anything differently except not using Dr Google as much and just being in a more realistic frame of mind I suppose but that's always up and down for me! X

[Cruz86]

2 days before ovulation should be good anyway @Lucyasc! Even though I'm not using opks, I do think they're great to use so you can really pinpoint when it is in your cycle. Going by cm is good, but it just confirms it really. But hopefully you won't be needing to use them anyway!! 🤞🏻 x

[Mama500]

Sorry for the radio silence ladies ds hadn’t been well!!

Exciting you are all in your TWW @FlyOnTheWall89 @Lucyasc @Ladylou17

What cycle day are you @Cruz86

No it hasn’t sunk in! I also feel different to last time I have 0 cramping which I’m hoping is an ok sign. Time is going so slowly.

Im also super hungry and eating loads of healthy stuff but not sure if that’s because subconsciously know MS is round the corner x

[Cruz86]

Oh hope your ds is okay now, or at least getting better @Mama500!

I'm only on cd12 😩 I've been taking Vitex which is controversial but I'm really hoping it brings ovulation forward by a few days! X

[Janey3090]

I'm on CD13 @Cruz86 so very similar to you! Seems to be taking forever this month doesn't it?

I don't ovulate every month due to my cyst but if I do it's around day 20, so a while to go yet too x

[Mama500]

Sorry to miss you! @Janey3090 thank you for your congratulations! Wishing you lots of luck this month x

[Cruz86]

I'm normally around day 19 so very similar to you @Janey3090. But I did notice a little bit of ewcm today so I'm really hoping ovulation happens over the next few days. How are things with your cyst? X

[Cruz86]

My temps have done a similar pattern to last cycle and it looks like I may just be about to ovulate, but a lot earlier on. Really hoping my temps stay high from now! X

[Ladylou17]

@Cruz86 @Janey3090 good luck this month!
How are you feeling @Mama500
Any symptoms @FlyOnTheWall89 sending you positive vibes 🤞
I'm 3dpo today temps are high which is good unusual to be this high already which I'm hoping is a good sign but I've been so stressed this month I doubt it'll be my month xx

[FlyOnTheWall89]

hi @Ladylou17 6DPO now and temps still rising nicely as you would expect I guess. Sending everyone positive vibes. x

[Cruz86]

Wow, your temps are high both pre and post ovulation @Ladylou17!! Got my fingers crossed for you. You've dtd loads!! 😮😂 xx

[Ladylou17]

@Cruz86 I wouldn't recommend it I was very tired 😂😂😂 x

[Cruz86]

I'm not surprised 😂 we've only done it twice so far, think I need to up my game!! X

[Ladylou17]

@Cruz86 😂😂 we kind of had a routine dtd then I would cook dinner- let's just say I have not cooked any dinner for my DH since then haha! He feels used xx
