@Marie1990x in the dreaded TWW but other than that fine Hbu?

Marie1990x · 01/03/2025 06:48

@RRAEE aghhh the delightful TWW! How far into it are you?

I'm good thank you. Due to ovulate later this week and says my fertile period starts today. OPK's arrive today so will start the obsession soon 😂. I've been good and not bought any HCG tests though....yet 😅

OP posts:
Daniki · 01/03/2025 08:56

@Marie1990x will do! I'm in for a scan again next week thankfully as the anxiety is starting to creep in again with any twinge etc I get 🤣🙈

Marie1990x · 01/03/2025 09:55

@Daniki aw bless you! Anxiety is never ending is it! Even when they're born 😅

OP posts:
RRAEE · 01/03/2025 10:30

@Marie1990x like 3 days 😂 i think, i'm not worrying about days and numbers anymore as i dont have the time to. But hoping this one will be the one

@Daniki anxiety sucks 💕

Daniki · 01/03/2025 11:36

@RRAEE @Marie1990x yes, it's the worst! Started my Clexane injections today aswell so hope that helps. I'll be rattling now with all my meds 😹

RRAEE · 01/03/2025 11:39

@Daniki haha same with the amount of vitamins i take 😂

Daniki · 01/03/2025 11:48

@RRAEE aw stop, never ending the stuff we'll take 🤣

Marie1990x · 04/03/2025 08:57

@Daniki hahaha that made me laugh about the rattling! How are you?

@RRAEE how are you getting on in your tww?

This weekend has been mental so apologies for the quiet.

I think I'm having a long cycle this month. My OPK's would usually be quite dark by now but they're still very much low. So frustrating

OP posts:
Daniki · 04/03/2025 09:41

@Marie1990x I hate when that happens, have you started any new supplements this month? All good with me, have a scan this Thursday so trying to keep expectations low and hope got the best. But been feeling fine and have no more spotting since the incident last week thankfully. We were in the hosp all day yest as my son was getting grommets, I am just bollaxed now today!!

Marie1990x · 04/03/2025 10:22

@Daniki nope nothing new this month, only thing is I upped the coq-10 amount (still the same brand and everything just taking more), but apparently that shouldn't alter your cycles according to google. It will likely just be my PCOS playing up.
Oh bless him, was your son okay getting them fitted?
So nice you have another scan coming up too, but you'll never stop worrying until baby is here 😂. When are you due by the wayyyy? Eek

OP posts:
Daniki · 04/03/2025 10:30

@Marie1990x I think it's around 22nd October? Iv tried not to look too much into it, incase I jinx myself 🤣 also try and talk my self out of superstisions all day long 🤣
Oh maybe it is, how annoying!! Throw the sticks away and go at it every 2nd day and hope for the best 🤣 yea exactly be glad of it but iv had many a positive scan turn out badly so don't hold much faith in it either.
He was grand thank god! Took ages for them to take him to theatre which was bad form I thought as he had been fasting since the evening before, but he was very good bless him! Everything is very loud for him today 🙈🥹

Marie1990x · 04/03/2025 17:50

@Daniki awww bless him!! It'll all be new to him, will get used to it soon 😊. Brave boy!

Yeah understanding! But at least you have the scans and no spotting. Positively thoughts 💫.

Haha I can't not take them though, I'm too much of a control freak and like to know when I'm due on, as I always come on exactly 2 weeks after a peak. It's weird because I'm having symptoms of imminent ovulation (sore boobs, cm etc), but still very much negative OPK's. Ah well let's see

OP posts:
RRAEE · 04/03/2025 19:35

Im doing okay just full of a cold/congestion. I feel like i always do so i assume ill be on to the next cycle like always but in still in it for now lol

Marie1990x · 05/03/2025 09:25

@RRAEE you never know! Have you got any further with being given anything to help?

Hi everyone,

How are you all getting on?

My period has just started showing signs today 😒 I have been very distracted by wedding plans but I was still secretly hoping that il get pregnant.

What combination of supplements do you take? It feels like a minefield!
I take zeta west- inositol & folate and proceive max. Who knows if it's any good or not 🤷🏻‍♀️

Marie1990x · 05/03/2025 14:37

@whatdoyouthink123456 oh no! But you never know until AF arrives!

I take B12, iron, vit D, coq-10 and folic acid. But clearly it's not working for me 😂😅

OP posts:
Daniki · 05/03/2025 16:43

@Marie1990x it's the fear of the unknown too, we like to some control! Any sign of peak coming?! Aw I know delighted, there is a big change in him since getting them 🥹 have another scan in the morning, a bit anxious and a bit excited 🙈

whatdoyouthink123456 · 05/03/2025 17:26

@Marie1990x iv seen the first signs of spotting and iv got my normal symptoms so im 100% out.

How did you decide what supplements to take? Research? Or has a specialist recommended them?

RRAEE · 05/03/2025 17:59

@whatdoyouthink123456 that sucks, sorry ti hear.

@Marie1990x nope they just told me to hit the goal weight they set before they will do anything but ive been loosing weight anyway so hopefully not too far away till i get help.

Marie1990x · 05/03/2025 18:12

@Daniki omg that next scan has come around quick!!!! The weeks are flying by, it'll be your 12w scan before we know it!

I've just done one now and it's quite a bit darker but still definitely negative. It's similar to when I'd expect to get a high/peak the following day so fingers crossed it comes tomorrow.

@whatdoyouthink123456 my consultant had said folic acid and vitamin D 100%, then I found out I'm deficient in iron and b12 so was recommended to take them, then coq-10 was highly recommended from a lot of people.

@RRAEE oh perfect, sounds like you're on the right track to them being able to help out then 🤞🏻

OP posts:
whatdoyouthink123456 · 06/03/2025 08:20

@Marie1990x

Proceive has vitamin D, folic acid, iron etc.

What coq 10 do you take?

I never know what's a waste of money

When is your Hycosy?
