Thank you!
i am 5dpo - I don’t feel a thing! 😩
hope you are all well. Xxx

I was thinking the thread was going to max out shortly.

How you getting on @niknaks37

I'm currently 11dpo.

Thanks for including me. 😊

I’m on CD11 so starting fertile window.

I caved and bought Proceive Max for myself and my husband. I took the first sachet this morning. It didn’t go well. The weird after taste was so bad I brought most of it back up! I hope it hasn’t been a very expensive mistake.

@MK85 thanks for checking in.
Well I am currently 8dpo, last 3 days, that includes today I have been having mild cramps and nausea. Not my usual PMS symptoms.
Caved and took a HCG test yesterday, as expected negative BFN. It's hard not to think my symptoms are early pregnancy related. I have no other symptoms as yet.
I still need to phone my gp to start tests because I keep thinking one more cycle. In general feeling a little deflated, not expecting much and hating the fact early pregnancy symptoms are very similar to PMS!

If I can remember, i seen you have had your own struggles as to when you ovulated? where are you on your cycle at the moment?

@Lifegivesyoulimes i have a nearly full box of Proceive max sitting on the shelf I bought a few months ago and couldn’t stomach! It’s a pity the max one doesn’t seem to come in capsules. It’s vile !

Oh yay! I was hoping a part 2 would show up - I’d been off here for a few weeks while we took a break and came back to catch up and couldn’t reply because it was full. I hope you’re all doing okay.

Still not pregnant here… shocker! 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

@Downtherabbithole83 welcome back, I had been messaging on and off, although reading through messages too. Except when I really needed to write in, I too seen the last thread maxed! Panic! 😂.
This wee group is a great support 😊

@niknaks37
Its still early, give it a few more days 🤞

I'm currently 13dpo , tested this morning BFN 😩 I knew it was going to be but only did it to satisfy OH as he was badgering on at me to take a test .
Definitely can feel AF symtoms roaring up.
He saw something on the scan but he wasnt sure if it was a follicle or a cyst as it was "abnormal shape" whatever the hell that means. I think I did ovulate but just for whatever reason it hasn't worked out .. yet again

Hiya ladies. Hope you’re all ok. Just commenting to keep up with how everyone is doing.

Hey guys I was wondering if I could join this thread as it seemed to call to me 😂 I'm almost 38 TTC baby number 2. Thought I'd cinched it but it ended in MMC 4 weeks ago. Just currently waiting for AF or a miracle BFP don't think it's my month though as had some dodgy cramps and backache for about a week. Taking a frer tomorrow just to be sure as Flo says my period is due Saturday so who knows! Good luck to all in the tww! Xxx

@thejollytrolleydolly welcome . So sorry about the mmc I’ve been there and it’s just the worst.

@cornflakes86 thank you ❤️ yeah it was heartbreaking for us but I truly believe everything happens for a reason and our little angel baby was not meant for this world. We're desperate to give our daughter a sibling so hopefully a sticky one next time! I got a squinter on a frer this morning so I'm hoping that means I caught. All of the tests have been negative up until now so hopefully this is a start of something! I usually don't get any type of positive until after my period is due (which at the moment I have no idea when that should be) so I'm just testing every couple of days and hoping for the best! It's nice to meet you all 😊 xx

@thejollytrolleydolly that’s great news best of luck. Let us know how you get on !

@MK85 if you don’t mind me asking how was your pcos diagnosed ? Is it a scan or a blood test ?

@thejollytrolleydolly I too am 38 but trying for baby #1. Sorry to hear of your mmc but hopeful you get your sticky bean next time.

@MK85 is AF due soon?

I am currently 11dpo, wont be testing unless AF doesnt show. I'm nauseous this morning. Felt cramps and nausea through dpo 7,8,9. My sense of smell changed slightly, pee smelt funny earlier in the week like I had eaten asparagus. In the kitchen I could smell a damp tea towel 12ft away. I was getting a metallic taste in my mouth most of 8dpo. These are not my usual symptoms before my period. Only thing normal was slight tender breats yesterday, they are fine today.
I just hope my body isnt playing a cruel trick on me, just felt a bit rough all week.

Hi there! Joining the group here! 🙋🏻‍♀️ I'm 40 and we're trying for our 3rd ❤️ I've just made several tests... Yesterday a Clearblue gave me evaps and today a Boots one seems to have a faint line but it's so faint I'm doubting my eyes 🥴😣 CD28 still no period. My cycles are usually 25 days 🤷🏻‍♀️

@cornflakes86 I think I got a dodgy frer as I tested again this morning with a boots early detection and it was a BFN and then I've started spotting today so I think AF is on the way. It's a bit of a relief though as I was so in limbo about what was happening at least now I can plan to get back to it next cycle.

@niknaks37 good luck with your journey! 38 is a fab age to be having babies! Hopefully we see some nice BFP's on this thread 😊 just need to get this AF out of the way! X

@niknaks37 also asparagus wee is one of my pregnancy symptoms! Keeping my fingers crossed for you! X

@niknaks37 that all sounds really positive. Sending good vibes it turns into a BFP. I’m 1DPO so the long wait starts here.

@niknaks37 sounds promising 🤞
I'm 16dpo but I think I'm definitely out.
Temp took a huge dump below cover this morning. Luteal fluctuates between 14-17 days .

@cornflakes86 both scan and bloods . Some women have just pco ( polycystic ovaries on scan) without any other symptoms but for pcos you need to meet two of the criteria symptoms with the polycystic ovaries to conclude a diagnosis of it.
At least that's what I've always been told by all the doctors

Hi, I'd like to join please! I'm 45 next month and just got a BFP on the second month of trying. I'm shocked but happy!

@MK85 thanks I just wondered if I have something like that would it have been picked up on the hycosy test I had.

@EastCoastExile that’s great that you got a bfp so quickly congrats

Congratulations! 😍
