Tracking BBT - TTC

[Angelselevenx]

Hi everyone! It's our second cycle TTC and first cycle tracking my BBT and I find it all so interesting, I'm learning so much about my body that I didn't even think of before. I'd like to see others graphs that are TTC and how their graph reflected a BFN or BFP. I'm 5DPO and temperature dipped yesterday but back up again today.

Feel free to share your graph so we can discuss all things TTC and BBT 😊

@Ttcsecond that's a really good sign! This could definitely be it lovely, try to relax as much as you can. Unfortunately we can't help if something happens but for now you're pregnant and just enjoy it as much as you can.

That's good to know, maybe I'll use it a couple of days before O and then day of O just to help them stick around 🤞🏼 xx

@Ttcsecond how you doing lovely? Xx

@Angelselevenx
Not great. Tests lighter and boobs less sore. Going to ring the doctors when then open, not that they can do anything.

I saw this coming but still had some hope. I don’t know why it’s happening. Xx

@Angelselevenx
GP is referring me to miscarriage clinic. But going for some blood tests tomorrow first. At least the ball is rolling on finding out what the issue is.

Hope you’re still having a fab holiday 😊
xx

@Ttcsecond oh hun I'm so so sorry. I'm glad you've called the doctors and going to get some answers. Here if you need to chat or rant or whatever of course. Hope you're okay xx

@Ttcsecond thinking of you, hope your blood tests go okay xx

@Angelselevenx
thank you 🥰

I went for the blood tests yesterday so wanted to get things started asap. Told my other half as well and about the other chemicals. Lots of tears yesterday and feeling sad but today feeling better today. Currently still testing positive but no progression at all. I think my other half is still hopeful but I know it’s over.
GP has also referred me for a pelvic scan so should get an appointment for that at some point.

What CD are you on now? Did you decide just to take folic acid? Xx

@Ttcsecond oh good! when will you get your results? Do you know what they're checking for?

Oh bless you hun, I'm glad you've told your other half as I know you mentioned he can struggle with it a bit but it's nice to have each other to lean on.

It could be something as simple as getting progesterone to help with your levels which hopefully they'll check for you in your blood tests. I'm so glad you're getting some tests done.

I'm CD5, so still a good couple of weeks before I O. I've ended up staying on everything for this month alongside preseed to see how that goes xx

@Angelselevenx
No they didn’t say but have had a message today saying I’ve got a scan on Sunday which is making me worried they think it’s ectopic.

Still getting 1-2 weeks on clear blue test. Contacted the study and I’ve got to send the stuff back as I now can’t take part but can reapply in a month or so.

xx

@Ttcsecond try not to worry too much (easier said than done). Scans are easier to see what's going on in in the inside, I'm guessing they've checked your hcg levels.

Have you taken anymore FRER/IC to see what they look like?

I actually forgot about the study 😅 I can't do it anyway as apparently I can't take the stuff on holiday so I'll have to start it next month xx

@Angelselevenx
Yeah I took a FRER today. No progression.

They must have checked HCG. Would love to know what the number is. Will ask on Sunday.

hopefully you fall pregnant this month and then don’t have to do the study at all 😊

xx

@Ttcsecond keep me updated. That's still a strong line hun so I wouldn't think you're completely out yet. And I'm guessing you've had no bleeding? Annoying the scan is Sunday, why couldn't they get you in tonight 😂

Hopefully, but I'm losing all hope at the moment feeling defeated 🤦🏽‍♀️ we will see xx

@Angelselevenx
I will do. No bleeding yet no and no other symptoms of ectopic. Weird that I’m praying it’s chemical because the other option is ectopic.

my scan isn’t at the EPU which I find weird. All will become clear Sunday though I suppose. Although I will only be 4 weeks 5 days then so not sure what they will see.

Dont loose hope, it will happen for you. Xx

@Ttcsecond good that you aren't bleeding I'd see that as a positive. I really hope it isn't an ectopic, I know they normally come along with bleeding/pain.

What department is your scan in? That's odd I would've thought it would be EPU. Xx

@Angelselevenx
It’s the radiology department. My GP did say he was sending me for a scan originally to see the shape of my uterus so maybe it’s that but then why would it be on a Sunday. All very confusing. Xx

@Ttcsecond oh okay, that's strange but I wouldn't worry. I know that EPU don't get you in unless it's classed as an emergency so maybe they've just got you in wherever they could find space. Either way I hope you get some answers! Xx

@Ttcsecond I swear I wrote on here yesterday, that's weird! But hope today goes okay, let me know how you get on xx

Hi @Angelselevenx

just had my scan. Wasn’t a pregnancy scan. The lady doing it didn’t know I was pregnant so all a bit strange. But she did scan me and take photos. Said she couldn’t see anything pregnancy related but it was too early to see any hiring anyways. So still not answers but she said now she’d scanned me they had to follow up with some beta tests so at least that’s something. Did this last night so still got hcg and possibly rising a bit (so scared it’s ectopic).

How are you? Ready for the next holiday? Xx

@Ttcsecond hey, glad the scan went well. Definitely too early to see anything pregnancy related. Did they scan your uterus area?

That does look darker, did they let you know your hcg levels?

If ectopic wouldn't they have seen on the scan or would it be to early for that as well? Maybe they'll take another hcg test this week to see if your levels have risen. Typical it's all over a weekend but at least it's Monday tomorrow.

I'm okay thanks hun, CD6 so still ages to wait. How are you otherwise? Nearly, doing all the last few bits this afternoon then I'll be ready to go! Looking forward to just relaxing and not worrying about TTC (definitely packed the preseed and OPK though 😅) xx

@Angelselevenx
yeah they scanned it all. Said she couldn’t see anything concerning which is good in terms of future pregnancy. I think it’s too early to see ectopic too. 🤷‍♀️

will see what the next week holds. I’m ok, don’t like being in limbo and would love a nice cold beer or glass of wine right now in this heat 🤣🤣 but obviously can’t.

So jealous of your holiday! You deserve a lovely relaxing time. Xx

@Ttcsecond hey how you doing today? Did you hear from the doctors? Xx

@Angelselevenx
Hi. Thanks for checking up on my 😊.

Haven't heard anything from them. Will call later in the week if I don’t. I think this is probably ectopic as my tests are getting darker. Just want to know either way but will only be 5 weeks tomorrow.

have you gone on holiday now? Xx

@Ttcsecond of course, want to make sure you're okay!

Oh wow they've definitely gotten darker, I really hope this isn't ectopic and it's really happening for you. I think if they were concerned about ectopic they'd have you in quickly and sooner, my friend had to go straight for surgery when they confirmed it.

We have! By the pool currently 😊 so nice to just relax and chill xx

@Angelselevenx
The doctor rang. Confirmed nothing wrong with the shape of uterus and no signs of pregnancy but did say was too early. I mentioned my tests being darker today and he sent me to get my betas done so sat waiting now to have a blood test. So should know something after my second one on Wednesday.

very jealous of the pool. I’m so hot and bothered 🤣xx

@Ttcsecond oh yay I'm glad theres nothing to worry about after the scan and also glad he's got you in for blood tests. When would you find out the results? I know after I went to EPU they were ready within a few hours? 🤞🏼xx
