Making a new thread from the March group ♥️

I'm on CD 1, Cycle 11 of TTC our first 👶🏼
Had a MC in February
Ectopic last July with right tube removal
I have endometriosis (and I suspect low progesterone)

Trying to stay positive and think fresh cycle, my body probably needed this after the MC and its a fresh start ✨

Baby dust ✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨

Sorry to hear that @Purple29 💕

Purple29 · 01/04/2022 09:17

@BigAlice thanks. It is what it is. Just moving on to next month now. Can stay in this group tho cause I'll now be hoping for the end of April!!!

Congratulations @Brideandprejudice 🎉
So Iv finished bleeding now ! The strangest period! Considering was a chemical was no clots and was fairly light 🤔 lasted 4 days . First 2 days cramping was unreal but no cramps after. Today my boobs are very tingly and that’s new too so what’s going on with my body Iv no idea but onwards and upwards according to app my fertile window starts in 3 days my cycles have gotten short it seems. Il start opks in couple days he’s ok to try for a couple more months but no stress no pressure if it doesn’t happen Wel call it a day . Hope everyone’s ok
Sorry for bfn @Purple29

Urgg AF showed up yesterday. It's kind of significant being the 6th failed cycle & knowing now that we won't be having a baby this year but weirdly it's the first month in a while where I haven't cried. I think before I felt shocked when it didn't happen and now I think I'd feel shocked if it did. Can't believe how quickly I've become pessimistic about the whole thing!

Looking into fertility acupuncture next cycle but omg it's so expensive.

I started taking a load of supplements last cycle as I have a really short period (always have) so looked into what could possibly help the lining if that was an issue & I have to say this AF is extra painful.

@Brunette1989 I feel like I could benefit from some of that!! Glad it's helped take the edge off a bit. Best of luck with this fertile window. Not doing OPKs last month help me relax a bit, we just dtd every other day /3 days. Maybe try that for a cycle if you haven't.

@Loopz66 I'm seriously considering getting that done private. I just feel like it would be massive peace of mind. Ive heard mixed things on it but I know it's meant to be over quickly. Im such a wimp so everything is painful to me haha.

@ViL89 welcome to the early thirties ttc baby #1 gang. Did you get any answers with the tests you've done? All the best for this cycle!!

Mariabombia · 01/04/2022 17:24

Also massive congrats @Brideandprejudice !! Hope you have a happy healthy pregnancy 💕

Hopefulprincess · 02/04/2022 11:59

Can anyone see that?

@mariabombia I had a cheap GroupOn for acupuncture a few years ago. I don't think it was specifically for Fertility. The acupuncturist did ask why I was there though and seemed to incorporate that into the treatment.

I just started to get my LH rise (on the paper strips) so hopefully ovulating in the next couple of days. We're trying SMEP again this month so fingers crossed we manage it!

Hopefulprincess · 02/04/2022 12:03

Irl you can see it . So question is after a light period why am I still getting faint positives . I tested as i feel nauseous and exhausted a lot so now i fear I havnt mc properly

Mariabombia · 02/04/2022 12:08

@LuckyWithMyLot how did you find it? Did it hurt? Did you find it useful?

Good luck for this cycle! X

Mariabombia · 02/04/2022 12:10

@Hopefulprincess have you spoken to the dr lovely? Maybe you should just to be on the safe side. So sorry for your loss xx

LuckyWithMyLot · 02/04/2022 12:11

@mariabombia I actually did find it painful! I wasn't expecting to and had little bruises the next day. I did conceive the next cycle (and had my DS) but I don't think it was the acupuncture.
I personally wouldn't do it again but I've heard lots of positive stories from others.

Mariabombia · 02/04/2022 12:40

@LuckyWithMyLot omg really 😳 the things we do eh!! Ah well worth a shot I guess. X

Hopefulprincess · 02/04/2022 13:04

@Mariabombia I will call them Monday I can’t believe there’s been 5 dodgy frer 🤔 5 have lines on but clearly not getting stronger so best get it checked!

Hopefulprincess · 02/04/2022 13:05

Iv not known anyone who had acupuncture that said it helped conception 😬

kizzy97 · 02/04/2022 15:31

Well this month won't be my month as we haven't been able to dtd, bit angry with the wasted cycle but hopefully we can resume next month 😭

strawberrysurprise · 02/04/2022 16:05

Can I join please? Bit late to the party!

@FreckledMouse our situations sound very similar. I too have endo with suspected low progesterone. I also have an issue with one of my tubes.

Fingers crossed for us all!

RSmamaa · 02/04/2022 18:40

Sorry ladies I dropped off the thread again as I've been keeping myself busy in the 2ww and trying not to stress! I've had some twinges and cramping today but I'm only 5dpo. Really trying not to think about the possibility of implantation because I feel so deflated every month when I get a negative 😩

Purple29 · 02/04/2022 20:15

@Mariabombia I had fertility acupuncture the same cycle I conceived my son.
Went back for it again last cycle, but I have AF now. He recommended I take floradix, because I'm still bf as well.

Going back on the 12th, I'll be CD15 then. I dont find it painful at all. I found it so relaxing!! No bruises at all.

allthingssparkly · 03/04/2022 07:44

How is everyone doing this weekend? I'm 8/9dpo today.

In that wait of finding out whether or not AF will make an appearance. Due 8th/9th April.

Good luck to those testing this coming week 🤍

April601stbaby · 03/04/2022 07:52

So since I've been using pre conception vitamins my cycle has gotten longer. Used OPKs again and I'm ovulating later than I thought. I've been really poorly so I missed 2 days of testing but yesterday I did one and got the peak symbol. We dtd but I'm just hoping I got the peak at the right time and I'm not too late. Fx

RSmamaa · 03/04/2022 08:27

@allthingssparkly 6dpo today and keeping myself distracted with my son 😆. Had cramps yesterday and felt sick this morning but it could literally be anything. Glad I don't have tests in the house

allthingssparkly · 03/04/2022 09:09

Good luck @RSmamaa keep me posted ☺️ I'm not going to test unless AF is late. I'm away next week too which is a bonus as it takes my mind off it 🤍🤍

LuckyWithMyLot · 03/04/2022 10:00

@allthingssparkly I'm impressed at you holding back on the testing. I'm always awful and start at 8dpo. However, it cost me £25 last month as I used FRERs so I've told my husband I won't test early this cycle.
Not sure I'll manage!

I had a static smiley on my Clearblue ovulation test yesterday but my LH strip is darkest today so I think I'll probably ovulate tonight or tomorrow. DH working nights and DS still comes into our bed in the morning which makes it tricky to have alone time but we'll have to get inventive. We DTD at 4am last night; wasn't the most romantic, I was knackered!

Kitty901 · 03/04/2022 10:02

I am 7dpo and literally feel no different but then i didn't either with my first pregnancy! Fingers crossed, i had a dream i got 2 BFPs last night 🤣 means nothing i know how annoying! I hate those dreams.

MangoLipstick · 03/04/2022 12:38

Afternoon everyone,

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

I go abit quiet during the 2WW too, had a busy week, so that’s taken my mind if things.

I’m 8/9dpo - no exciting symptoms to report. Had some on/off twinges on right on hand but sure I had that last month too.
