@TheBirdintheCave I've had many an indent believe me and the 2nd test was only 12 hours later.. maybe wishful thinking maybe not 🤞❤️

My levels have taken a few extra days to disappear but back to nothing now xx

@TheBirdintheCave how's that temp this morning? xx

@FfoxRedN It's dropped from 36.96 to 36.86 so looks like it's falling now.

Patience being tested to the max now….triggered yesterday morning so ovulation at 9pm this evening. Dtd Thursday evening and Friday morning….tried a couple of times since and his performance anxiety is back….things get going then and he’s all good then as soon as it comes to actually doing it….it all fades away. He’s beating himself up which won’t help, but I’m really struggling to not let my emotions show!! This is our final ovulation attempt before ivf and I’ve gone through so many failed cycles and injections etc this happened the one other time we were able to trigger in December and thought he was over it. ahhh sorry I just needed to get it out

@TheBirdintheCave I hope it goes back up again tomorrow 🙏🏼.

@Alexis7890 I feel for you hun, my DH has the same issue, and somehow always on the most important day despite not mentioning it. I flipped when he said 'it's easy for you' 😤. I haven't been through what you have either with the injections etc. I don't know if this will help, but we have resorted to him going and watching porn in a different room and then coming back at the pivotal moment. I know it's not me, it's the pressure that it matters so he has to really concentrate 🫣. I hope you manage to get some more in but if not you've at least covered -1 and -2 xxx

@FfoxRedN we tried the porn thing this morning as it worked back in December, but this time he came back good to go then basically as soon as he approached me….flop. Trying to not take it personally and trying to stay calm but it’s tricky! December and now are basically the only chances we’ve had to try, and this is it before ivf so I know it’s pressure but it’s so hard to have sympathy and patience

@Alexis7890 yeah I know how you feel and totally empathise. They have one job...a job which is all too easy every other time they need to do it 😣.
It's hard to not let it get to you, just know you're not alone and it's perfectly normal to feel the way you are feeling.
There's also been talk here of a cup and syringe method 😬. Could be Plan C?!

xx

@Alexis7890 ahhh so sorry lovely super frustrating ☹️ the cup and syringe could be a good plan?

@Alexis7890 I was going to say cup & syringe too! We did it but also mixed with normal DTD so I can’t say if it would work alone

Hi I was wondering when you usually ovulate and if any were successful with an early ovulation. I'm currently cd 8 and might be ovulating already.

@emmatcc1
Hi, I imagine it all depends on the length of your cycles. If they're around 21-22 days long it's entirely possible you could be ovulating. You'd need to test and temp to know for sure 🙂. Your period arrives about 14 days after ovulation.

@FfoxRedN My cycles are usually the perfect cd14 ovulation and cd 29 af. I'm confused as I got ewcm and open cervix yesterday which I get before ovulation. I don't test and there wasn't an ovulation dip in my bbt chart. I hope it's nothing and my ovulation will be at a usual time.

@emmatcc1 if you usually O around CD14 you could just be gearing up for it with the EWCM I had quite a few days of it last cycle before ovulation happened helps gets those swimmers in place

@FfoxRedN @bringmearainbow @LuckyMoonstone i don’t think I’d know where to get a syringe from?! He’s in such a mood about it we’ve barely spoken all day so I assume we’re done this cycle now anyway…..ivf here we come in the summer!

@Alexis7890 I got them off Amazon, I’ve tried a few different kinds all from there

@Alexis7890 Ah that really awful :( I'm so sorry it all went wrong. Any chance he might be up to the task tonight?

@Alexis7890 hun, you're not alone. We had the exact same issue. He would be fine and it was like he knew my peak and then nothing. I knew it wasn't me but it was the pressure for sure. I started in the summer combining dtd and syringe. Worked for us. Got syringe off Amazon. I thought DH would be so anti this method but I honestly felt him breathe a sigh of relief when I asked him if he was ok with it!

thanks ladies I’m glad it’s not just us this has happened to! Tried again this evening with the sort yourself out then come to me at the last moment….no success. So trying to cling to hope that Thursday night and Friday morning might have been enough. If it isn’t then ivf and this problem can be avoided. Trying to stay as positive as I can with it!

I'm out. I've got blood tinged CM now so that will be AF on it's way tomorrow or Monday. On to the final cycle before IVF where we'll discover if Bird gets to part with £1k or £5k 🙄😂

*its 🤦🏻‍♀️🙄

@Alexis7890 I'm sorry it didn't work out 😔.

@TheBirdintheCave Oh lovely I'm so sorry, it's awful and shouldn't have to be this hard. If this doesn't work out for me we will be following you both down the IVF route xxx

@TheBirdintheCave sorry she's on her way 😩

@Alexis7890 ahhh that's crappy lovely hopefully one of those earlier swimmers will catch got everything crossed for you 🤞🏼

I'm heading into fertile week I just hope we can get enough shots in 🤞🏼 I think the chances of us getting 3 days in a row will be slim but will do what we can. CM has started to turn EW today

@bringmearainbow you go girl 💪🏼.
So I don't know if any of you remember me booking it but I had my psychic reading today.
In relation to fertility (I didn't tell her my current status, and she picked up that we wanted a baby without me saying) she said I already had two in the spirit world. She then said May was an important month and she could see a celebration, and originally said that would tie in with December being important too (although we then said May-Dec wouldn't work out, however my current due date will be Dec some time). She also said a girl would be first, same as the lady years ago. A few other bits with tarot cards that made sense too.
God I hope it works out that all that means this one is ok 🙏🏼. May would be a 12 week scan and when we would tell family. Come on little one 🤞🏼 xx

@FfoxRedN ooooh I remember you saying about booking it that's so exciting I'm sending so many positive vibes your way ❤️ I'm def a believer in all things mystic 🔮 how you been anymore queasiness?

@FfoxRedN that's such a good reading. Really hope all stays well ❤️

@bringmearainbow good luck with fertile week..you know you've got this!

@TheBirdintheCave sorry AF appeared. It's bloody shit. But at least she didn't keep you waiting
