@dabs9 don't apologise! I'm 14dpo I think (dont temp so not 100% sure on timing) was expecting AF this morning so just waiting on that now.
I'd clearly got my husband's hopes up too as he looked really surprised it was negative bless him. Xx

Bubblesandtroubles · 03/06/2023 08:40

Baby dust and good luck vibes for those that are left in 🤞🤞🤞.
At least one (hopefully all) of you needs to graduate to the pregnancy board with @HoneyBlossoms112!! Xx

Aw honey. I'm so sorry.
Don't lose your positivity, you're amazing!
And on a really positive note.. you were able to track this cycle and know for sure that your body ovulates and that's amazing!
Hope you're doing something nice today.. or just chilling on the sofa if that's what you fancy 💕 xxx

Bless him that's so sweet he went to buy your tests! 🥹
I guess there could be a chance you ovulated later?? And so you still have a chance 🤞 x

Bubblesandtroubles · 03/06/2023 09:13

I'm sorry @Amy95 it's just rubbish isn't it. Xx

Sealover123 · 03/06/2023 09:30

@Amy95 oh no, so sorry to you and the other ladies who have had AF arrive 😔 get this week out of the way and then June crew for the win!!!

Who's still in with a chance? @LeopardLover @Bubblesandtroubles ?Anyone else? Sorry been hard to catch all the updates on the thread; I've been busy this week. Still no AF for me although my cycle was really long last month so I'm not really sure if my period will be late again.

Bubblesandtroubles · 03/06/2023 09:55

@Sealover123 I'm out. AF arrived less than an hour after I got a BFN this morning.
So, you know, just to add insult to injury, she basically made me waste £10 or whatever the test cost! She's an absolute delight isn't she... 🙄

I'm a bit unstable emotions wise now. I'm absolutely gutted. Then feel bad for feeling bad- as though I'm saying my little girl isn't enough. 😩 Been a bit teary so good job it's sunny and I can hide behind sunglasses! Xx

@GeoSmed how are you feeling today?

Yeah I've had tests at our fertility clinic.
I had 30 follicles on my hycosy scan but only 1 dominant. My bloods are normal so they say I don't have it.

I've had laser hair removal on my face for years anyway (v dark hair) so no idea if that would be getting worse or not had i left it. And have had spotting pre period for about 6-7 years now.
Still spotting today yeah, I'm only CD24 today so that's what's stumping me! If this was happening in a weeks time I'd be like yep.. period is coming and this is normal. But the spotting all throughout cycle is not normal for me 🤷‍♀️ can only put it down to the maca root.

@LeopardLover Sorry you're getting AF symptoms. She's such a bitch I really hate her!
I normally have a longer cycle if I ovulate late. Luteal phase tends to last 14 days regardless of when I Ov but I guess that might be different for others. How are you feeling?? Xx

I’m okay hun. Thank you for checking in you’re super sweet. I think I’m actually okay. I slept the best I have in a week and that shows that the anxiety around it all was too much. I have really struggled this week and it really started to affect me as I started beating myself up about it, so a break I think is vital atm. Plus I won’t lie - that wine last night was DEVINE!!!

how are you doing and thanks for checking in 🤍wow 30 is still a lot more than you should have. And the hair. Wonder why it’s never been picked up. I Jusy looked through our ivf forms and the criteria mention fsh levels. Did they check that? I’ll share the form below.

that sounds promising tho! I think it’s definitely a sign. I swear this TWW for you guys has been an aggggggeeeee. At least you’re not in a really long luteal phase this month right? Thinking of you all. Xxx

Sending you ALL the love and so pleased you get to enjoy that vino!! 🥰

It sounds like it was the right decision to take a break so you don't head into dangerous territory. You definitely had a spidey sense!

Flippin eck, it's incredible it showed that it implanted even if it didn't stick. It can work, we just need a sticky little bean for you. Later this month is a fresh start. The Glastonbury week - my fertile week too 🤣

I've convinced myself I implanted this month because of that weird ass pain I had, it just hasn't stuck. I think from all the reading I've done, as sad as it sounds, mine just wasn't a healthy one (because I'm a senior grandma). It actually makes me feel better, because I feel like the process is (probably) working, it's just the top quality egg hasn't been released yet. Obvs I could be way off, there might not have been an egg, no fertilisation blah blah but my gut is telling me that.

I've got a biatch of a period coming, this pain has been relentless for 24 hours! X

Thanks lovely! And the wine tasted amazing. Me and mr georgie worked out I hadn’t drank for 6 weeks cuz of being on the 💉so yeah least that’s a bonus 😂yeah that’s it. Physically and mentally. The amount of hormones that I was injecting was making me weird. And it defo affected my sleep. I cried the other day as my legs hurt from doing legs in the gym 😂🙈

I know I dunno if I’d rather have known or not - I am trying not to micro analyse every thing I did that made it unstick but I don’t think that’s a good mentality! I’m just focusing on the next 2 weeks being away Both weekends with loads on.

yeah that’s totally true. That’s what my consultant said yesterday. Your body will naturally reject it if it’s not like an A++++ embryo. And not all will be based on egg size / maturity etc. being a grandma defo doesn’t count. If it does I’m fucked 😂I have a good feeling for you and @CAGH03 xx

Sealover123 · 03/06/2023 10:21

@Bubblesandtroubles Aw sorry love; that sucks she arrived right after testing. Argh!!

Don't feel that way, nothing wrong with wanting to add to your little family ❤️ Try to enjoy the sunshine and treat yourself today. A lot of us will be in the June crew!

@GCS34 I think that if there's been such an immediate improvement with your sleep and mental health knowing you're having a little break and knowing what's happening it's definitely a good thing right now, even tho it's not the ideal outcome it's definitely most important to look after yourself and your health 💕

I asked the fertility Dr about my follicle number and she made out like it was a good thing lol. But said if my cycles become more erratic to get back in touch, which I did and she told me I could start letrozole at that point. I've said to my husband I'm gonna have 1 more natural cycle and if it's a shitty long one again I'm gonna ask for the meds.
They did check my FSH a few times.. can't remember the results but they have always said they're normal.

I have no idea on luteal phase this month lol. Cos not 100% on confirmed ovulation so I'm just winging it and waiting to see what happens. Not even opk testing anymore.. have zero hope this month, just need to have a proper bleed and reset!! 😂 xx

dabs9 · 03/06/2023 10:42

@Amy95 do you think you'll continue to track next month?? A walk sounds lovely!

I was out at a homebirth all last night so I'm wrecked.. but would like to go for a walk along the beach as the weather is so nice!! 🌞
Will probs get a Chinese tonight since you've made me crave it ever since yours the other day hahaha xx

Well my app says I'm going ovulate when I'm out there I don't wanna track out there either , so maybe a month off tracking and just seeing what happens is really sounded good to me my oh was gutted this morning because he thought it was going be our month , I'll still join the chat though 🤞❤️ omg I bet you need matchsticks for your eyes , who's homebirth was it ? omg yes Chinese for the win 🙌😋
All you ladies have really helped me this month through the tww I'm so glad I'm made this thread on here so thankyou for putting up with me 🥰
On to June cycle 🤞xx

Wow this thread moves fast!!

sorry to hear of all the bad news @Amy95 @GCS34 @LeopardLover and May babies definitely suck haha. It’s good you have a holiday planned @Amy95 so just enjoy that and try to forget about everything.

@LeopardLover I am pretty sure I’ve had a few months where something has implanted and failed, and I see it as sort of positive really, our bodies are capable and is just waiting for the right one to come along! I think mine may be being extra careful following the miscarriage and see that as a good thing (although it’s frustrating waiting!)

I hope you all have sunny and lovely weekends. It’s lovely up here and it’s my birthday Monday so I am ignoring the fact I currently have the Period from hell (perhaps another failed implantation!)

I also have a question I’ve never been sure about. Do you count spotting as first day of period? I only seem to get it when TTC and am never sure when my period starts properly. Or is it full flow? I have no idea and I suspect I’ve been tracking wrong (which also may not help).

@Amy95 @Bubblesandtroubles Sorry about AF arriving 😔 Seems most of us will be in the June crew! @Sealover123 have you tested again yet?

I'm still waiting for AF but this isn't unusual, I usually have a few days of cramps first. It'll happen as I'm at the big family lunch this afternoon 😅 @dabs9 Fascinating about luteal phase remaining the same length, I looked back at my cycles and this seems to add up! I never knew 🤣

@GeoSmed Glad you had a lush sleep, you deserve to relax for a bit and make the most of being able to drink haha. ❤️

@Annapolis35 So glad we're on the same page re things not being quite right with the embryo the months it doesn't happen! Our bodies are doing what they are supposed to. And that makes sense yours is being extra careful.

I hope my AF arrives today so some of us are aligned again 🤣❤️

dabs9 · 03/06/2023 12:45

@Amy95 oh god yeah, quite right to not track and just enjoy your life while on your holiday!! Carefree and relaxed is best way for this month! 🥰

@LeopardLover omg yeah you can bet it'll arrive at the most inappropriate time! Always hahaha.
The cramps are the worst.. I've cracked out the hot water bottle today as my backache is ramping up 🙄
Hope you enjoy your family lunch!! Xx

LeopardLover · 03/06/2023 13:42

@dabs9 Well,actually now you've blown my mind about the luteal phase length always being the same (mine is 13 days), it won't arrive until the early hours. I'll enjoy the BBQ in peace ✌️😂

Hope the hot water bottle helps! So annoying when it's hot outside but you need the pain relief. Xx
