@Mummyme87 I'm not sure if this is indent, I'll post a picture of todays test and yesterdays test together in a moment, it's frustrating isn't it x

@LJF234 I'm not sure with clearblue ones but I think yes you're coming into a fertile stage and when it's a solid smiley you'll ovulate 12/36 hours later? I think 😅 best get to bed 😉
Good luck 💜

I can see it!!

Mummyme87 · 02/03/2022 09:00

@HoneyLemon29 definitely a decent line! Hopefully stronger tomorrow! I’m tempted to get FRER even though I swore I wouldn’t

Mummyme87 · 02/03/2022 09:01

@LJF234 I think you need to do daily tests until you get a static smiley face then Ov will be 12-36hrs

Bundaberg84 · 02/03/2022 09:14

@LJF234 that means you're in the fertile window - you can have several flashing smilies before you'll get a static one. But yeah, you're def. closer and it makes sense to get busy :) Good luck!

myrainbowjourney · 02/03/2022 09:17

@HoneyLemon29 definitely a line on that! How exciting!!! Keeping everything crossed for you.

@Mummyme87 I'd definitely get a frer. Cheapies aren't always particularly sensitive, so if your CB is more sensitive I'd say it might not be an evap. Do you have a pic?

@NewtoTTC87 thank you ❤️. Fingers crossed you're right and I've had a couple of chances. Just depends on the flexibility of that damn tube! I feel bad as I've already resigned myself to it not being it this cycle. Not a good attitude, but think it's self preservation

HoneyLemon29 · 02/03/2022 09:18

@Mummyme87 I know FRER have a bad name but honestly I've never had an issue with them, I'll take another in the morning until it's clearer x
I am still spotting that's what's worrying me, I don't need a pad it's light light pink when I wipe x
I should get my progesterone results back tomorrow x

Mummyme87 · 02/03/2022 10:38

@myrainbowjourney my cheapies are 10miu, same as clearblue

@HoneyLemon29 that’s good you haven’t had any issues with FRER, feeling super positive for you.

LJF234 · 02/03/2022 12:26

Thanks all, I'll keep doing these daily for the next few days then.
@HoneyLemon29 I can see a faint line in the second test too! Sorry to hear you're spotting though, let's hope its nothing to worry about. X

NewtoTTC87 · 02/03/2022 12:41

@HoneyLemon29 I can see the line too on the second!!! Don't stress about spotting. Keep us updated. x

@Mummyme87 looking forward to your results too x

@myrainbowjourney I don't blame you for thinking like this but life can throw surprises at you. I really did not think this cycle was mine.. hence the partying but look what happened. Chin up x

@LJF234 yep ovulation is close by. Good luck and hoping this cycle is the one for you too x

HoneyLemon29 · 02/03/2022 14:19

Thank you everyone, will post hopefully a test with a darker line in the morning ☺️ x

MrsL2021 · 02/03/2022 21:44

Hi, please may I join this thread? I had an ep and left tube removal in Jan and hoping to start ttc again next month. We've been referred to the fertility clinic and for tests Inc. Hsg test but wondering whether to wait till I've had hsg before ttc again. Has anyone got any advice? Also any advice for supplements/vitamins... Previously I took "seven seas trying for a baby" while ttc and switched to "pregnacare" when pregnant. Thank you ✨🌈xxxx

HoneyLemon29 · 03/03/2022 07:44

@MrsL2021 I think I'm on another thread with you as well as this one 💜
I'm not sure about the HSG but sorry you had to go through ectopic. The only vitamins I take is folic acid x

HoneyLemon29 · 03/03/2022 07:44

Yesterdays test and todays
Both 6am and FMU x

Yesss!! @HoneyLemon29 huge congrats! How are you feeling?

@MrsL2021 sorry to hear about your ectopic, welcome to the thread ❤️
You don't have to wait to try, but you can't have the hsg (assuming this is the dye in the tubes) if you are pregnant. So just bear that in mind.
I think any of those supplements are fine with TTC. I take folic acid and omega 3 xxx

MrsL2021 · 03/03/2022 09:56

Yesterdays test and todays Both 6am and FMU x
@HoneyLemon29 these lines look great!! 🤞❤️ Oh yes we are in another thread together! Which folic acid do you take? Wondering whether to stick with what i took before, but also paranoid if that "caused" the ectopic? I know it's irrational! Xxxx
MrsL2021 · 03/03/2022 09:58

Yesss!! *@HoneyLemon29* huge congrats! How are you feeling?

Thank you @myrainbowjourney ❤️ we just don't know whether to wait because you're more likely to conceive after hsg and worried that it may me another EP if we try before. I have so many paranoid thoughts. Deep down I think we should just go for it xxxx
myrainbowjourney · 03/03/2022 10:16

@MrsL2021 I assume from your message that you don't know when it's likely to be?
I'd just go for it. Doesn't really matter if you're more likely to conceive if you've already managed to!
When they took your tube away they should have given you an indication as to whether the other one looked healthy. I know they can't say if it's blocked, but it will hopefully give you the confidence that you can carry on.
I totally understand the thoughts, we all have them. And I guess there's no right answer. But I'd just go for it, knowing you have the hsg in your back pocket if it hasn't happened by then xx

HoneyLemon29 · 03/03/2022 10:22

@myrainbowjourney thank you 💜
I'm feeling okay but I'm so anxious to know where baby is 🥺 I'll be going in for blood tests monitoring when I'm 4 weeks then a scan when my levels are 1500 x

@MrsL2021 thank you 💜 I just take a 5mg folic acid prescribed from the doctor x

I know what you mean with thinking about possible causes for the ectopic. With me I didn't realise that I had conceived, and went into an X-ray room with my son for his X-ray at the time the baby would've been going through the tubes. I always wonder if this could've been a cause x

myrainbowjourney · 03/03/2022 10:44

@HoneyLemon29 @MrsL2021 I don't think anything causes an ectopic except bad luck and having problems in the tube. The doctor told me really tiny hair like structures help to move the egg down the tube, and even those not functioning quite right can just cause the egg to get stuck.

Never think it's anything you've done xxx

myrainbowjourney · 03/03/2022 10:45

@HoneyLemon29 totally understand you'll be anxious. You have some nice steps ahead which will keep you distracted, and hopefully it won't be too long until you see it on a scan 🤞🏼

NewtoTTC87 · 03/03/2022 10:46

@HoneyLemon29 Ah congratulations!!! So so happy for you! I will have everything crossed for you. When will it be 4 weeks?? x

@MrsL2021 Welcome ❤️ I am sorry to hear about your ectopic. You are definitely in the right place though. Hoping the group helps you as much as it helped me. I took folic acid, DHA, COQ10 and vit D. x

@myrainbowjourney how are you feeling today? x

myrainbowjourney · 03/03/2022 11:04

@NewtoTTC87 I am fine thank you. I have now officially entered the TWW so I am just trying to find things to keep me distracted. I feel ok though - couldn't really have done any more than we have so just need to keep everything crossed.

How are you doing? xx

HoneyLemon29 · 03/03/2022 12:13

@myrainbowjourney thank you, I remember a doctor also telling me sometimes the hair in the tube just move slower ☹️ I still haven't actually got my Pathology report back from surgery yet, I don't know why it takes months 😕

@NewtoTTC87 thank you, I'll be 4 weeks on Tuesday, I found out very early x
