kaurma reallu omg mine are always back next day thats a shitter. I have my scan tomorroe hoping for some big juicy eggs lol

I'm trying not to use MN too much as I'm becoming obsessed reading too much unnecessary information but it turns out once my clinic confirms pregnancy then they bring you back in for an early scan around the 7/8 week mark. Being told congratulations and that they would be able to give me "my baby's first picture soon" was unbelievable after all of the heartache.

Wanted to let everyone know as it might be something that your clinic will offer when the day comes.

Good luck Kaurma. Ridgeway28 I don't think I ovulated until day 19 so keep at it for quite some time! Smile

ridgway28 · 31/07/2014 17:40

I did an ouvlation test today a clear blue one and im ovualtinv@!!! im only cd9 too should I be worried. waiting for dh to dtd x

kurama · 31/07/2014 21:58

wahoo ridgeway !!! Grin i normally my bloods are taken at hospital for something specialist wants so i just wait for letter with results which i never understand anyway.
Ive had the worse afternoon at work ever.i got bollocked when i got in for something i always do... and it just got me really down and upset and it just got worse from there. all i wanted to do was curl up and cry which isnt good when im constantly having to serve customers for 4 hours. wtf is up with the mood swings today. all i want is booze and lots of it! Sad
sorry for the rant ladies

kurama · 01/08/2014 08:59

well im guessing bloods came back neg as she said they were normal and no action required...... or they didnt test for what I wanted them tooAngry

ridgway28 · 01/08/2014 09:04

phone up agsin karma and ask what they mean by it. I understand the mood swings feel all over the place myself.
I dont understand how I can be ovulating already dtd last night and for tmi it was amazing non of the presure we have been feeling and tmi again dirty text through the day helpped a great deal.

kurama · 01/08/2014 10:21

AnnieHoo · 01/08/2014 10:54

ridgway28 · 01/08/2014 11:52

sharond101 · 01/08/2014 14:35

Ridgeway what about your scan didn't that make things any clearer? I had 3 positive days where test line was as dark as control line. If linebis lighter than control it's negative. The tests turn positive 12-48 hrs b4 ovulation so it's possible to have more than 1 day positive if you catch the surge on the way up and the way down.

AnnieHoo · 01/08/2014 14:52

Does Anyone know if you can just call up GP and make and appt with the nurse for a blood test? I need to get Hep B and Hep C done.

AnnieHoo · 01/08/2014 15:43

Sorted! Just booked appt with nurse Smile

ridgway28 · 01/08/2014 17:13

sharon yeah had scan today she said the lz levels or something that gives the line on ovulation test start to produce when they start making movement so the line will be there for 4 days as it normaly happens 2 days before. so she said keep dtd.

kurama · 01/08/2014 17:32

ridgway so sorry your dh isnt playing ball. and its not good that you feel like giving upmine isnt either at mo....phoned doc and she said the preg test is def neg but the hormone levels show that i was about to/ was/ or just had ovulated... that was 2 days ago! said to dh i wanted to dtd just as a last resort and he said no coz hes tired, but i bet he wouldnt say no to a bj....

AnnieHoo · 01/08/2014 18:15

Deep breaths Ridgway, deep breaths..

Ok you dtd last night so those soldiers are up there waiting already for the egg primetime and can last 3-5 days up there..

Just chill tonight you had great sex last night so jealous so get some good sleep and in the morning be ready for some morning glory action you can jump on!

Kurama sorry you're out this month. That's late ov.

kurama · 01/08/2014 18:56

annie its either very late ov, or its about the right time if it had been proper af.... either way i was told not to take the clomid as it wasnt a proper bleed, so i could be on cd43 or cd15, but that doesnt explain pre af symptoms before and after the weirdness 2 weeks ago.
Yes ridgway i must admit i am very jealous of you dtd session yest. my las one was a quicky just before i went to work! Blush

sharond101 · 01/08/2014 18:57

Ridgeway your DH needs time to regenerate his sperm and there will be lots still swimming away looking for an egg from yesterday, so chill and give him a little slack for tonight. Mission dtd for tomorrow. Did you have some nice juicy follicles on the scan?

ridgway28 · 01/08/2014 19:00

it just messes with my head how yesterday was so perfect and amazing no presure and just right and today hes done a complete 180 on me!
he came home with 12 roses to my response was well there not going to give me a baby!!!
think that kinda shocked him!!!

just feel like my head is all over the place! Sad

ridgway28 · 01/08/2014 20:32

TMI well I took him by surprise dressed up and took him while he was playing on his xbox online with his friends Grin feeling pretty happy with my self lol

StoneBaby · 01/08/2014 21:27
