Techincally I guess I am still pregnant (22 weeks) but scan last week showed the baby has died so I'm now waiting for her to be born.

I have no words dude God be with you.

Long time coming then, I'm really glad to hear of your BFP, KP. What issue(s) did they find/foresee to have told you that, if you don't mind my asking?

I had lots of scans, first they said it was pcos then said it wasn't and they didn't know what it is. However one tube has large cyst on it that makes it unviable - the risks to remove it outway the benefits.

On the other side my eggs don't fully develop and wrap around causing pain.

Sounds like PCOS to me but they said that it definately wasn't etc. Hense why I took their almost impossible to conceive comment with a pinch of salt.

Just want to confirm now that all is as it should be and not stuck somewhere else.

On a similar subject my mother was also told at my age that she would never have children and she went on to have three girls. Doctors aren't alway right:D

Wow, well done (even more!) on the BFP then! When will you see doc?

Hiya,

Yes provera seemed to work as had high temps! Stopped taking it yesterday so fingers crossed for AF, I'm only on CD106 afterall!!! :mad:

Fully intend to take soy and metformin next month! Really fingers crossed it works! Spent £28 last week for vitamins for OH that the consultant at FS recommended, Not opened them yet, I'm tempted to wait till after his SA to see if he really needs them as £28 is alot of money!

The good news is, i went to my first slimming world weigh in tonight and have lost 5.5 lbs! :j:j:j SO happy i nearly cried, Looks like i'm on fast track to loose 3 stone and get clomid!! So proud of myself :T(

Well done!! :T
Hope the soy, metformin, and weight loss all produce a BFP before you even need Clomid They reckon a 10% loss (of weight) is enough to kick start things in PCOS cases, don't they? So you're well on your way!

DD finished her last session of radiotherapy yesterday, we now have a week and a half wait until her next scan. We know there is no more they can do for her now which is making me very miserable.

Fingers crossed, and prayers heavenwards. I can only imagine... :A

I started spotting yesterday afternoon, so took extra progesterone tabs (I've checked the packet and it said no ill effects are reported from overdosing, but it's hardly overdosing, 3 tabs/day instead of 2). It's still spotting today, but that's fine. Hope full flow AF arrives tomorrow:j

Good luck!

It worries me that this might be my surge but I have no opk's left to test again (they are due to arrive tomorrow) any thoughts???

can't wait for my first peak. I suppose it is a lot of pressure to suddenly have to go for it! MY DH still hasn't done his fertility test, as he has to do it between 9-11am, Mon-Fri, and once done, rush it to the hospital whilst keeping it warm. Talk about pressure!!:o

Oh first peak was magical:happyhear
That was back in July 2010 (no BD on either Peaks:o).

so i'm back - my best mate has just announced she is pregnant and i'm so pleased for her, but at the same time felt like i wished it was me...

It'll be you soon!:j

hello to those still here (esp qq) hopefully it'll be your turn soon x

I remember you:) Lots of oldies are getting BFPs now, so it must be our turn now:cool:

Alwaysthebusybee wrote: »

Are these expensive to buy - I would love to have a better idea of when to try ... I am temping but it seems to be very up and down to me.

I use CBFM, IC Opks, temp and check ewcm and swollen-ness of vagina area:D

As for CBFM, I've heard some larger Superdrugs have them at £20. I've never seem them though:o
Difference between OPKs and CBFM sticks is that CBFM detects estrogen rise as well as LH, so can give you more notice.

Hi, I don't know how many people remember me from before but it looks like I will be rejoining this thread sooner than I intended. We're not TTC yet but I was wondering if anyone has any links to information about what nutrients are particularly important when TTC?

I'm so sorry to see you here again so soon.

I think the important nutrients is folic acid for both men and women. I have DH on folic acid since my mc.

Hopefully the luck will spread soon and I pass on any luck I have left over to you all.

Thanks:wave:
Have a great pregnancy!:j

Diva Tinksy went well, I have actually been booked for a gig on my own! I used to sing in a band and I got dumped back in Jan and so lost my confidence and now I have a gig for the end of july. quite excited although need to find a lot of songs!!

Yay!:T:j

The control line was there, but very very faintly. Hence I think FMU might be better? *shrug* :huh:

FMU would be better:o

CD 1 - Cramping tummy ache ...

JennyJewell wrote: »

I'm also losing a grey and white coloured matter - sort of seems like skin tissue? (Sorry for TMI) Is this normal? Have never experienced this before - then again nothing has been normal at all for me for the last 5 weeks or so!

Hope you haven't got infection (((hugs))).

Words fail me. It's too sad

GemmaE wrote: »

I have been to Weigtwatchers tonight and have lost another 1.5lbs, only 2.5 lbs to my goal weight, hopefully will get there by Easter/ May bank holidays when we go away for a couple of baby making weekends.

Congratulations!:T

Then went to body combat, I love it! Its better if you've had a bad day though as you can really take out your frustrations.

:rotfl:

have got some in my bedside drawer, the ones with a pot and a dip stick, but feel like i'm tempting fate.

If it's cheap...:shhh:

(Month 1 would just be ridiculous!).

A lot of people has done it on month 1:cool:

BB1984 wrote: »

my chart for last month when I'm pretty sure I didn't ov, here it is: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/33e41b/

Looking at it again, you probably did ov at CD22;)

Mine usually comes 3 days later. Provera may have triggered ov too:cool:

Congratulations!:T You may not need Clomid if you lose weight though:p

Morning all, well I'm oving today, which is typical as I am still poorly, so think this month will be a non starter!!
Oh well, never mind, it's not like I'm not used to bfn by now!

(((hugs))). Did you BD recently?

smash7 wrote: »

CD7(22ish) my trapped nerve is a little better so might be able to get a BD in later I'll need to soon as I'm expecting to ov shortly....!
I will get pg, I will get pg, I will get pg

Glad your trapped nerve is getting untrapped:cool:
Happy BDing!:j

smash7 wrote: »

Welcome home QQ - fingers crossed AF doesn't arrive until tomorrow and then it's full steam ahead!! I think you should tempt fate and start a new thread. What do you think?!?

:rotfl:
I'd do anything though:o

To save me reading back through 1 million pages - if I want to enhance ewcm with grapefruit juice, when do I start drinking it, how much should I be drinking and for how long? :cool:

I'd start now, they say a small glass a day until ov:) I usually start around CD7.

cleomolly wrote: »

has anyone ever had this with an opk before? the control line showed up as normal, but behind the control line appeared another line but running the other way! if this makes sense! there wasn't a test line but this line that appeared behind the control line was as dark as. It worries me that this might be my surge but I have no opk's left to test again (they are due to arrive tomorrow) any thoughts???

I think it's just a random faulty line. Can you see where the test line is supposed to be? I'd only believe that:o

But if in doubt, BD:D

Icey77 wrote: »

I am still at a loss for what a BFP is, could anyone explain?

:rotfl:
PS. Glad you found that out:D Kind of most important abbrev of this thread:D

here I was thinking it was a case of some rather enjoyable BD'ing and away we go, shows how little I know

No, enjoyable BD'ing is all one needs:cool:

Some of us (me) have been doing this too long, and have too much time on our hands (not healthy for TTC):o

cleomolly

Thanks QQ - random faulty line it is I was worried it may be the test line but in a different place due to a mistake in manufacturing (the silly things we come up with when TTC)

RebekahR - hugs hun
GreenerGrass - 106... How long after stopping provera is AF supposed to come? AF vibes to you. Well done on the weight loss!!! :T
KimmyMarky - your chart doesn't seem to be working on FF
mrsvicx hope you're feeling better for a BD later (failing that, a pillow over the face is my weapon of choice) :rotfl:

:grouphug:

Didn't know provera could bring on ov too, whichever way it goes for you GG, af or ov bet you'll be over the moon to start a new cycle, 106 days must just be torture.

Have my f/up appointment at hospital next week and hoping for provera too, although I can guess they are going to say "give it a bit longer"!

Tinksy - what sort of music/songs do you like to sing? my oh is in a band, doesn't sing though. wishing you lots of luck in the run up to your gig

mrsvicx

Thanks guys, last bd'ed on Sunday, so you never know...
I've got a pounding head, but I'm trying to avoid taking anything for it. If I'm still feeling dizzy tomorrow, I'm off to the doc's! Can't afford t be off work too long, otherwise my workload when I get back will be mahoosive!!

Thank you sweetheart and everyone else! It's lovely we can all comfort each other and share lol.

*delurks*

Hi everyone,
Can I join in? Can't quite believe I'm typing that but there you go! We are both 30, TTC #1, getting married and building a house all in the same year. I think of it as "stress testing our relationship"

We did the "not preventing" last month but no luck, so I have warned OH that we are properly trying this month. I'm CD 7 today, not temping or using OPK's just now though (I'd secretly like to as I am information obsessive - this thread has been a goldmine!!) I'm also on grapefruit juice - yuck!

OH is using the tactic of saying "come on boys!!" rather enthusiastically after BDing. So far, this has not proved effective.

My mum and dad took 10 years to conceive me, so I am a bit scared/paranoid about that. It ended up a brill story though - they were on their way out of the door to sign adoption papers for another child when the phone rang and it was the Dr telling my mum she was pregnant!

Anyway, looking forward to "meeting" you all. Baby dust to all and huge congrats to all the recent BFP's!
