@bunnykins123 that’s ridiculous! Not sure who else you could escalate it to.
Yeah I think that’s why ovusense thinks I ovulated over the weekend, my temp was high fri & sat morning which was after the 2 really hot nights

mooneagle · 20/06/2022 19:52

@bunnykins123 yep I’m just waiting till my next AF before we can start the IVF process. I think cause I don’t actually ovulate every month that’s an extra issue on top of the age that’s pushed me to opt for this. It was luck that they were able to see I had PCOS that after scanning me post my expected ovulation time there was no collapsed follicle. Although I’ve long suspected as have other symptoms.

They say that the main factor is probably my age and therefore egg quality? At what point did yours fail may I ask?

I had 1 chemical so probably implantation issue and then one later (not implantation issue) which they can’t be sure of but might be genetic issue.

My partner got tested also and had slightly low mobility sperm - another hurdle!!

In summary it could be any number of things!!

bunnykins123 · 21/06/2022 08:38

@LuckyMoonstone I'm so glad you said that, I had the exact same and it predicted O a day earlier. My temps were the same as last month so couldn't understand why this happened. I'll contact them again today but really, it shouldn't be this complicated 😂

@theblueflowers it's a iPhone which they have reassured me should work but alas - it still doesn't 😂

@mooneagle I'm sorry to hear that. Have you recently been diagnosed with pcos? What were your symptoms? I don't think I have it but at this stage, anything is possible. I haven't actually had any bloods to confirm O so it's a possibility. When you say 'they' is that the NHS? Mine were all around 4.5/5 weeks mark so early. I've never had a chemical pre DD so this is very unusual (and I was just as much an obsessive poas gal as I was then as I am now 😂) does your DH take any vitamins? So many questions - sorry 🫣

mooneagle · 21/06/2022 09:23

@bunnykins123 so I was diagnosed with PCOS about a year ago. I got put on Clomid actually to help with trying to get pregnant but it didn’t work. My symptoms were irregular periods, acne, some months when I used the ovulation kits I had 0 LH surge at all, and then when I got scanned at the fertility clinic they saw that I hadn’t ovulated that month so confirmed it really.

So I’ve been seen by NHS .. but as not luck with clomid and the PCOS problem am now going private to a fertility clinic.

DH only started taking vitamins after the dodgy sperm results! We’re both taking the Procieve vitamins now.

Going to have 1 last shot natural (fingers crossed I actually ovulate) if not then I think we start IVF.

How's everyone doing? Is anyone about to o? How's everyone in the 2WW? I'm CD12..and have been hit with a sickness bug! Talk about great timing 😫 xx

LuckyMoonstone · 21/06/2022 15:20

argh gone from 0.18 yesterday afternoon to 0.13 today! Obviously just wavering a bit until the real surge happens. Not much ewcm at the moment so I don’t think it’s happening now anyway.

Cegbee · 21/06/2022 19:38

I'm 9DPO today, I promised myself I would wait until 12DPO to test but this morning I peed on a Frer- I just didn't realise in my half-awake state that it was a digital frer and it didn't bloody work anyway, it got stuck on the clock face so I'm non the wiser! My only possible symptom is I've been dropping stuff all week but also having an extremely stressful week at work. Question now is do I test tomorrow or stick to 12DPO?? I HATE THE 2WW!!

Cegbee · 21/06/2022 19:39

Sorry about your sickness bug @calimc83, that is very bad timing. I hope you feel better quickly.

bunnykins123 · 21/06/2022 19:48

@LuckyMoonstone sounds like maybe you're not quite there yet. What cd are you now? Have your opks started to get darker?

@calimc83 oh noooo! Get well soon! Hopefully it'll be gone by tomorrow, there seems to be so much going around at the moment.

@mooneagle thanks for that information. I sometimes wonder if I have it but don't really have any of the symptoms. Thanks for the deets about the vitamins, will defo look into these. Good luck with your attempt! You often read people say 'I was about to have ivf when...' so you never know, it could be your lucky month 🤞

bunnykins123 · 21/06/2022 19:50

@Cegbee oh noooo, what a nightmare!! Why didn't it work? Just a dodgy test? That is so so annoying! Just tell yourself the longer you leave it, the better so you get a definitive result. Keep us updated - hopefully you can get hold of some FRER over the next few days!

calimc83 · 21/06/2022 20:55

@bunnykins123 @Cegbee thanks! Feeling a little bit better now..might try schedule a 'session' in tomorrow 😅😆. I reckon you should hang on a few more days @Cegbee you're still super early xx

LuckyMoonstone · 21/06/2022 21:06

@bunnykins123 CD17 and back up slightly to 0.19 on the OPK this evening. I’m getting more ewcm as well and my boobs hurt. I really hope I wake up to a good OPK in the morning! Temp dip this morning as well.

Cegbee · 21/06/2022 21:18

@bunnykins123 yeah I think must be a dodgy test. I didn't even realise you could get digital frers, I didn't mean to buy it. Thanks ladies, I know you're both right I should wait. I'm almost grateful for what happened this morning- gives me a few more days to be oblivious, I'm not hopeful for this cycle.

bunnykins123 · 22/06/2022 08:30

@calimc83 glad you're feeling a bit better! It's the worst when you're feeling grim and you need to try and be all sexy when ttc 🙆‍♀️

@LuckyMoonstone sounds promising! Hopefully you'll get your peak soon 🤞

@Cegbee nope me either! I know there are two different types of early detection ones but not digi ones. Haha that's true - maybe it's a sign?! 😂

LuckyMoonstone · 22/06/2022 08:32

0.79 OPK this morning! But I forgot to wear my ovusense last night 😫 hopefully it’ll still figure out ovulation if I get a rise tomorrow morning. Really hoping for a peak OPK this afternoon or evening 🤞

calimc83 · 22/06/2022 09:15

@bunnykins123 😆😆 there's really not..he always knows when TTC is on the cards when the sexy pjs come out! X

theblueflowers · 22/06/2022 09:47

9dpo today and as much as i'm trying to ignore them, I'm feeling so many symptoms! My boobs feel so big! The rational side of me is saying that it is just too early for these kind of symptoms.

I really want to wait until Friday to test, because if I am feeling symptoms today, I would have to get a positive, else I am really going mad!

@Cegbee did you manage to resist?!

mooneagle · 22/06/2022 10:09

hi all, I tested again and the pregnancy test was still showing a very faint line. I then peed on an ovulation stick which gave two strong lines indicating LH surge. Is is possible I’m ovulating? Or it could it be residual HCG being mistaken for LH. Does anyone know?

LuckyMoonstone · 22/06/2022 19:12

1.25 OPK, that’ll do nicely 👍

Yoyoathome · 22/06/2022 20:52

@mooneagle, I would think it means your Hcg is high (too) , either they are correlated or something...! I remember when I was having my MC, the LH line was really dark too. Hopefully the line is good news !! Do another test tomorrow on hcg one? x

Cegbee · 23/06/2022 02:04

@theblueflowers I did! Going to test on Friday and then have a large glass of wine after work if/when it's negative!

theblueflowers · 23/06/2022 06:35

@Cegbee sounds like a very sensible plan! Hopefully you'll have to skip the wine.

I had a dip in my temperature this morning. I've been trying to kid myself that it's not been steadily going down the last few days. I'm going to save myself the heartache of a test and wait till AF arrives.

Going to a christening this weekend where DH is godfather. We will be the only couple without a child or pregnant.

calimc83 · 23/06/2022 08:51

@theblueflowers hugs lovely..it's so hard xxxx

Indianna2006 · 23/06/2022 09:25

@theblueflowers well I failed to wait. Tested this morning 10dpo.

feel like it perhaps has a squinter. But telling myself it’s an evap. An also from lines last month which then faded away. Don’t know what to think anymore.

ugh why oh why. It’s too early I know. Should have waited!!

Indianna2006 · 23/06/2022 09:29

Tell me it’s an evap people..10dpo
