@RRAEE after soo long of trying, it feels like it will never happen at this point 😒

Is the weight goal they gave you BMI based? I'm holding off going to the doctors because I know I'm overweight. Iv lost over 2 stone now, but probably need to loose another stone! I don't know if it's worth trying to speak with someone now or if I should just focus on my weight and then go

Daniki · 06/03/2025 09:29

@Marie1990x so out of scan, all ok and strong heartbeat. Still being cautious and guarding myself of course but can breathe easy for now 🤣🥰

Marie1990x · 06/03/2025 09:54

@whatdoyouthink123456 I just have the ones from boots, max strength I think they are so take 2 of those a day.

My hycosy is in April, seemed ages away but these weeks are flying by!

@Daniki amazing news! Hopefully this will be your miracle baby 😊.

My OPK's still don't seem to be getting any stronger. Don't know wtf is going on this cycle but will keep dtd and trying to catch it. Just frustrating 😫

@whatdoyouthink123456 yeah bmi based and then he gave a kg amount

And same been over 2 years and no luck :(

Daniki · 06/03/2025 14:47

@Marie1990x really hoping it is! 🤞🏻 oh god how frustrating are you testing a few times a day? Altho we're all pros at this stage now we know all the tricks 🤣

whatdoyouthink123456 · 06/03/2025 16:08

@Marie1990x

Iv ordered some from Amazon. I think my supplements have 70g of coq10 in but all the other doses are much higher.

April will come around quickly 🤞🏻

I hate months like that. Have you got any other symptoms? EWCM etc?

whatdoyouthink123456 · 06/03/2025 16:12

@RRAEE

Do you know what BMI they asked you to aim for?

Have you got much to lose?

I did lose 3 stone before I got pregnant with my son naturally but I'm about that same weight now. I'm guessing being older and having a tube removed isn't helping the situation!

It's soo draining isn't it!

whatdoyouthink123456 · 06/03/2025 16:12

@Daniki

Congratulations! That soo exciting. Iv got everything crossed for you x

RRAEE · 06/03/2025 16:39

@whatdoyouthink123456 i cant remember exactly but they said it had to be in the normal range as the risk is to high or something. But ive lost a lot of weight so hoping it wont take me too much longer to hit it but ive never been that small so i am worried i wont get there

Marie1990x · 06/03/2025 17:19

@Daniki it's really pissing me off now 😂. I'm taking one practically every time I pee 😅. Did one not long ago and it's still low.

@whatdoyouthink123456 I thought I did a few days ago but my tests were super faint and usually I get an obvious peak, so think it was all in my head.

I too am trying to lose weight to better my chances. Consultant said it would help but it's not his main concern as I'm not out of the window bmi wise for medication. I weigh less now than when I did when conceiving my daughter, but that was 4 years ago so again probably age not helping among other things. Just another thing to contend with 😂

@whatdoyouthink123456 thank you!

@Marie1990x oh you're getting there but how frustrating!! What CD are you on?

Marie1990x · 06/03/2025 17:53

@Daniki CD17, usually get my peak CD15. I know it's only a couple of days but it's annoying 🤣. It's not any darker than last nights so god knows. Thank god I got like 50 OPK's 😅

@Marie1990x that would frustrate me too and having me Google deep diving 🤣 did you get the date for your Hycosy?

Marie1990x · 07/03/2025 09:41

@Daniki yeah it's the 10th April, I'm dreading it to be honest!

Finally looks like some progress in my opk, hopefully it's peak by the end of the day 🤞🏻

Daniki · 07/03/2025 11:31

RRAEE · 07/03/2025 11:33

@Daniki cycle day 33 i keep feeling like its started then nothing i keep going loo at work to check 😂 usually come on around now but like my cycles are all over the place last two months so i have no idea anymore when its actually due

Daniki · 07/03/2025 11:36

@RRAEE that's such a pain in the arse!! Hate how it taunts us 😂 have you tested!?

RRAEE · 07/03/2025 11:38

@Daniki not yet as ive been up at stupid oclock every morning and not had time but im going to this weekend if af doesnt show

Daniki · 07/03/2025 11:50

@RRAEE hopefully it doesn't show 🤞🏻 you have great willpower id be through 2 packets of tests already 😅

RRAEE · 07/03/2025 17:08

@Daniki after that false positive i got i took a step away as that was heart breaking so now i only test if i pass a certain cycle day. But cuz mine have been off lately its harder but ill see tomorrow 🤞🏻

Daniki · 07/03/2025 17:12

@RRAEE omg is right! That was awful, 😢

Marie1990x · 07/03/2025 19:51

@RRAEE ahhhh I hope it doesn't come and it's a huge BFP for you! It's so frustrating not knowing when to expect AF! Hopefully it's for a good reason this time.

@Daniki still no peak for me! Tbf I've been out since lunch time at a brunch and just got home so me pee is very much 99% Prosecco at this point so not sure why I even bothered taking an opk and expecting a peak 🤣
