Trying For a Baby II

kencokenco

Hi All. Typical, my laptop crashes and I have to send it off for repair, and when I return I find I missed out on the clearblue monitors.

Cannot believe my luck these days, I will still my tesco though in case, maybe lucky, Will let you know.

Well I have more news ladies. I am unable to start clomid just yet. My doctor was concerned that my Iron levels are very low, and because I have suffered with low Iron all my life he is not happy. I take the meds the iron goes up and the minute I stop they plummet right back down??

So I am now on meds for the Iron and various other vitamin deficiencies and I have been given an appt for june 26th .

This will be my start date for clomid down. (sighhh)

But as otherhalf says We should be happy the new doc is really dedicated to ensuring we do everthing right.

Im still trying to stop kicking myself over missing this clear blue monitor (gutted)

Well speak to you all later ladies, Im going to search through all my tesco's. Is it just tesco with the pharmacy dept, as I think we only have one major store with pharmacy and the pharmacy bit only opened about 2 months ago.

ah well I will see anyway
thankyou ladies.

Hi Nunnygirl it's a nightmare isn't it! I dd find fertility friend good although I now use it in conjunction with the clearblue monitor rather than temps and find it much more reliable. Some months it had ov on days I knew it wasn't for sure so I feel much happier now.
Hi Kenco I'll go to our tesco today and pick up a monitor if they have one still. If you find one in the meantime it doesn't matter as sure someone will want it if not there's always ebay.

Hi Becs, yes definitely worth asking them to scan the ClearBlue monitor in Tesco and see what price it comes up at. I will keep a look out for the sticks for you!

becs

Hi everyone, checked at Tesco and they have a couple in stock, ticket shows full price and they scanned it at the till to check and now half price so still £49.93, if anyone would like me to get them one let me know. I asked about the £24.96 price but they didn't know about it.

Thanks becs, going to give it a couple more months and then maybe think about a Clear Blue Monitor

Hey everyone!

I have just been to Tesco's &.......................bleeding forgot to check out about the monitors I apologise! In my defence it was due to a sudden new addition to our family that has turned everything into chaos - one little soppy King Charles Spaniel :rotfl:She was running around lost outside the park on the next street from out house & almost jumped in front of our car :eek: - of course I had to convince OH to turn around & go back & get it & the sweet little thing came straight over to me, let us pick it up and safely put her in the car with a delighted DD!! Cue lots of door knocking, asking everyone in the park, trip to the petshop for biscuits, rushing to the nearest Vets that was open for another whole 3 minutes to get a microchip scan & still no owner! Police apparently aren't interested & said we could call the dog warden but they don't open till monday & they take up to 5 days to pick them up & only keep them for a week :eek:, vets didn't want to keep her (not that I was going to let her go anyway lol) & so after a walk, a trip to the shops for dog food & equipment we now have one very contented happy doggy . She's a beautiful animal, very soppy & gentle & we think she's probably less than a year old - poor thing cried when OH & DD nipped into Tesco's whilst I waited outside! I'm not really a dog fan but I think we're all hooked! We have put a couple of notices up & posted on gumtree.co.uk but we will carry on fostering her whilst we try & find her family, I can't bear to let her be put down so our family might have just grown in an unexpected way - the cat however is less than impressed :rolleyes:. Sorry - that is a lot of non-TTC news

On the TTC front, it looks like I'm due AF the same day or the day after you becs, so fingers crossed. I went out with a girl friend last night for a big catch up, we had a Nando's & then went to a karaoke pub (neither of us drank anything) & still rolled in at gone 2am!!! She dropped me off home & as always we spent a further hour nattering in the car on the drive... hmm I obviously talk to much, can you tell :rotfl:Anyway I woke up this morning & have felt incredibley nauseous all day, to the point where I keep wondering if I'm going to actually vomit, I had a 3 hour nap this afternoon & still don't feel any better so it's not lack of sleep - dare I dream it could be pregnancy related.......... Never had this with DD. Currently 9 DPO. Argggggggggghhhhh.

Warm 'dog laid on my feet' baby dust to all.:rotfl:

Hi Nikabella and everyone,
I am having the month from hell with this cycle. Having said I was feeling positive that despite us TTC for over 2 years that we feel it's only this month and last where we have had a proper chance because of my meds now being correct, I'm now thinking it's over for another month. I was just sat here browsing the internet and found a website that listed early pregnancy symptoms- I didn't think I had any but when I read on I matched a few, have had very vivid dreams about 4-5 dpo which came up a few times, also sleepless nights this week so 6,7 & 8dpo(I'm someone who get get an olympic gold in sleeping usually!), Also have been feeling feverish, you know where your face feels like it's kind of caught the sun if that makes sense! And dreadful heartburn. Anyway so read all this and of course started to dare to hope it might be our month then started cramping and now seeing pink discharge when I wipe. Trying hard to make myself believe that it is AF coming because deep down I know it is but I don't want to believe it. I also have had a very regular 12 day luteal phase which now appears to be 10 days! One step forward and 2 steps back! I'm now sat here in tears again as I know it really is over again this month.

Becs implantation ususally occurs around day 8-10 so it could be implantation bleeding - so don't loose hope just yet! They say that your LP should not change in length so at 10DPO it could be implantation with another 2 days of LP left.

With my last pregnancy I am convinced I could feel implantation as on 8DPO I spent the afternoon getting very sharp pains in my womb area, they only lasted for a few sceonds each time, any longer & I would have cried! I then got my very feint BFP on 10DPO (of 12). Any symptoms before 6DPO I have to say I think are probably of our own making as this is apparently the earliest implantation can occur & it is only once this occurs that we start releasing hormones.

Keep strong, I have my fingers crossed for us both.
