THE DINO CLUB #1

[Lila34830]

Follow up of the two following threads of TTC Baby number 1 🦕🦖

@KT199@Gemmaemilyxi had FRERs which were stark white but that was at 7/8 dpo where sometimes implantation hasn’t even occurred. We shall see …!10 dpo today for sure, I don’t temp but I had my LH peak Friday 16, lot of ewcm sat 17 and a v low (almost white) LH Sunday 18 assuming progesterone took over.

For sure, I think 7/8 DPO is so early for things to show. From memory most of us who got positive tests were from 10DPO onwards!!

I do wonder how some of the other dinos are getting on that graduated a little earlier actually!!

Also, not heard from @littlebluu it would be good to know how your doing!!

I think if I was to ever try again I’d try be more relaxed initially as BBT, peeing on sticks ect was soo consuming!! I say this but I’m also a control freak so, doubt I will also 🤣

“ graduated “ 🥹
im secretly hoping @Toppstileslover isn’t replying because she had her bfp. At least one of us !
i am in 2 minds as I would be over the moon but also if negative I’ll be totally
ok as we have a project we’d like to achieve so it will all meant to be whatever it is.
in any event, I shall share it with the group 🫶🏽

Hi girlies! Toppstilelover is not BFP I was just living my best Reno life with a paintbrush lol

AF started at 0530 (puppy lyfe) and is so painful! Like worse than when I had the miscarriage! So maybe i had a chemical

Will DTD every other day again from end of the week after as I definitely had a chemical before I had the bfp last time

What else can we do!

No doing FRER early tests again either, waiting for AF! I am a control freak and it freaks me out I can’t go and buy a baby in Tesco now I am ready in life so I very much accept I can’t control this situation (plus better to DTD before ovulation not on day of — father in law says!)

sending spangles for Thursday to my girlieeee @Lila34830 😍

@Toppstilesloveryou’re a boss girl.
i might very well follow with AF.
ill let you all know soon!
and I agree with the early tests, tbf quite proud of myself for not doing
the cheapies this time !
sending you love … and muscle strength for the painting !

I went to the toilet and I just had some pink spotting … nothing on my knickers, just on the toilet paper …!
AF due Thursday if I go by the usual 11 days LP, so could be a short LP and AF on its way ! I don’t want to get my hopes up and say implantation. I don’t spot before AF though. Didn’t expect this to be that eventful so far 🤣

Aw no way @Toppstileslover that’s rubbish! Keep yourself busy and rest up if AF is not being kind to you!

@Lila34830 sounds hopeful, but completely get not wanting to get too excited just yet! I guess if implantation just happened you’ll have a faint positive test in a few day!

Well @KT199i think it’s af full flow as I’m in pain and it’s looking bright red ! So I’m out, and for a while ! But it’s ok ! 🫶🏽

Down but not out sis! You might as well keep idly trying the couple of weeks after AF whilst you’re not trying. In hindsight I wish we’d been trying while not trying (we weren’t not trying but could have been more pointed with windows of not trying!)

Main thing is I am trying not to doom scroll and stay off things about loss or bad vibes etc. lots of manifesting, soooo much visualising and guns of steel! 😍 have just had a bath for the first time in 6 weeks so the chi is so restored (no hot water in that bathroom not a filth offender lol)

@Clara202 how did your hycosy go? ❤️

Hello all, I’ve been a bit quiet on this thread but I actually got another BFP just over a week ago. I’m astounded as it’s never ever been this quick before. I’m just waiting for the stage that I can properly believe it now….

Omg congratulations lovely !!! 🩷

Urgh so annoying @Lila34830 but clearly the world has other plans for you!! This project must be very important, I feel like everything must happen for a reason. Good luck with the project and one day soon I’m sure you’re gonna see those two lines!

Oh soft congratulations @curliegirlie I hope things progress perfectly for you this time! Keep us updated if you feel upto it 😊

Thank you girlies, we are moving abroad to my home country so that is a very big deal and it will be in about 6 months so this is why timing is actually working in my favour 🙂 you all have been so supportive and seeing bfp on bfp has made my month every single month !
for the outstanding bros keep hope things come when they are meant to, and they do come ! And for the preggo dinos, wishing you all the blessings life has to offer 🩷

Hello ladies!

I've just been creeping in the background this whole time reading all of your updates, we haven't been able to try much just due to my husband working away every single ovulation week 😅

This is the first month we've been able to track and try properly, currently 10DPO with AF due today but nothing yet, had a real squinter with a cheapie but I'm telling myself it's just an evap line because ive been getting all of my usual AF symptoms and been dull cramping all through the night, so I suspect AF to show up at some point today as its normally like clockwork.

I hope youre all doing well in your journeys wherever that may be, we've got this 💪💪

@littlebluu I have EVERYTHING crossed for you ! 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽

@Toppstileslover a bit of a strange update on the Hycosy. I attended my public appointment to have it done. The public appointment was to eventually get referred for ivf after all scans tests etc. The consultant told me not to bother with the Hycosy as the morphology test was 1% again for the second time. She said why put yourself through an invasive test and open yourself up to infection when I’m going to refer you for publicly funded icsi anyway. So she has referred us for publicly funded treatment and I should be called within the next 6 weeks by a private fertility clinic. In one way I’m delighted to have been approved but in another I had it in my head that the Hycosy was going to clean everything out and that I was going to fall pregnant naturally soon after. But maybe with 1% morph that was just wishful thinking.

@curliegirlie congratulations! 🥰

Oh wow @Clara202 this is a lot to process!

Good news is (for you) if I’m reading right that sperm morphology is the challenge here and not you which is some reassurance? I know it’s not but if they’ve identified the problem then that helps?

Can I ask where you live? I live in Sussex and I think I’ve read that it’s private fertility here! DM if you’d rather. I haven’t had time to book my new appt yet, ironically my last referral was booked for the day I had my MMC removed and then we relocated.

@Lila34830 I hope the home country has mumsnet 😍

@Toppstileslover im in Ireland so the publicly funded fertility treatment is under the HSE. Our issue could be just the morphology, or it could be the morphology and a blockage for all we know. I have read loads of people on here getting pregnant on 1% morph so I didn’t think it would be the only reason it wasn’t happening for us. I also seem to have varying luteal phases too. But I will bring this up once the fertility clinic that I’ve been referred to contact me. It is publicly funded, but it will be a private clinic. Any tests or treatment that we get there will be paid for.

Sounds like an amazing adventure @Lila34830 !! All the best for the future 🥲. But pleaseeeee do try to remember to keep us updated, even a year from now it would be so lovely to know how your getting on!!

omg @littlebluu you must let us know if AF has arrived or whether this is it!? I have everything crossed for you!

@Clara202 I hope having a plan in place brings you some comfort. Hopefully not long before you can start the process and fingers crossed it’s successful quickly.

Still nothing yet! Im sure I caught a tiny pinch of spotting yesterday which I assumed was AF coming right on time but had absolutely nothing since, and my tests are still showing what Im assuming is an evap line as its not getting darker - ive posted a pic plz lmk I'm not going mad 😆

Still getting all the usual AF cramping so my guess is it'll come today at some point. I only have one cheapie left, I think I'm thankful coz if things keep going this way ill drive myself mad with testing!

Hope everyone is having a great Thursday 🩵

Omg @littlebluui see it ! Living vicariously through you !

and girls I promise I’ll update you the day I get my BFP from south of France 🥲🩵

Omg now I am jealous I love the SoF, healthcare is good in France so this is a win 😅

TMI but I am having the worst heavy AF! They are usually fine/fairly light and not a thing I ever even notice or have issues with. Therefore I am convinced with my early line maybe something happened and there will be extra happening next month 😀✨💖

Oh @littlebluu I can certainly see that line. Fingers crossed things do progress, it’s every 48 you’d expect your tests to darken but even then isn’t necessarily a bad thing if not. Keep us updated!!

Going out of my head! Still no AF but tests aren't getting darker and 6 days early was also like an evap line!

Plz let me know what you think?

Officially 1 day late today but ive a feeling I just ovulated late and it's going to come on hard in tge next day or so 😩

🩵

@littlebluuI have everything crossed that those little lines will continue to darken. It’s such a headfuck when you don’t really know which DPO you’re on.

@Lila34830good luck with the preparations for the move back home. It will certainly keep you busy. What does that mean for maternity benefits? Are you changing jobs? Does that mean that you need to press pause for eligibility for mat pay, or are you going to NTNP in the meantime?

I’m now 4+6 and got these beauties last night and this morning so I’m finally starting to believe, as they’re darker than any I got back in March….
