Trying for a Baby Part 8

becca0417

Birdie - great news about your scan/results. Are you going to see what happens over the next few months? Hope Tuesdays BD did the job for you

Skint - would love to join you but unfortunately there is no end in sight with this cycle so goodness knows where I'm going to be at Valentines

abis - I had bloods done but they didn't show if I'd ovulated as it was at the end of a very long cycle (70+ days) so when I go and get my results tomorrow I am going to ask for Day 21 bloods. Hope you are OK x

Welcome chocoholic_chick - do you want to be added to the list? If so what Cycle Day are you on?

Amy hope you feel better soon lovely, how horrible for you at work. Love to you xx

head_in_clouds - welcome to you too would you like to be added to the list?

Lily I've had the same issue re IC and CB opks before. Are they different sensitivities?

Nessie & emylou - welcome I've added you to the lists also.

Not much happening with me, just waiting for my Drs appointment for scan results.

14% at 1dpo?! You're not even pregnant then lol!!

Haha oops! I didn't think to look at the 1dpo results. Don't think that link is the most reliable

grrr. I'm sure DH's employers have a chart of my menstrual cycle and don't want me to get pregnant! Once again they're sending him away for a meeting involving overnight stays and once again, its around ov time.

lilymay is the clearblue less sensitive?

hugs for everyone who has bfns, strange cycles or cd1.

I've just been to the loo (sorry for tmi) and had the tiniest amount of spotting... as I am now 8DPO then according to Dr Google I am cleeeeearly pregnant so may as well start celebrating now When will I learn to stop away from the internet? :rotfl:

I managed to nap all the way through GP's test result window (they generously give us 2 hours ) so will have to call tomorrow - but think I'm going to have to go in for a 'fit note' anyway as I'm still occasionally being sick so shouldn't be on a ward with poorly little ones. Feel so stupid and helpless and guilty about it, but there's nothing I can do about it so I'll just have to make the best of the situation.

Code - :rotfl: at your OH's employers being part of a diabolical anti-conception plot... do you think they're believers in overpopulation? Hope you manage to get some 'quality time' together very soon

Becca - Hope your scan results are good news, and thank you so much for being so amazing with the lists

Emylou - Welcome to the thread. Sorry you've been finding it tough, but hope you get your BFP really soon. Enjoy your Hen weekend :j

TACOD (hope you know who you are :rotfl:) - I hope the referral is a really positive experience for you. I don't imagine they'll be too critical of your weight - a booking BMI of 27 wouldn't even fall into the high risk category at my hospital and you're already losing weight and living healthily so the number's only likely to come down. I think a few of us on here will be jealous of the, ahem, fortitude of your OH too :rotfl:

Lemon - Big hugs for tomorrow and hope they're able to give you some answers, or at least reassurance.

Abis - Hope operation BD goes smoothly and you get a temp rise Good work on reminding us of QQ's advice re SSing too... although you've not quite taken on the mantle of the wagging finger yet :rotfl:

Purcy - Hope the new supplements are doing the trick and your BFP appears soon.

Mrs TM - Good work on the PMA

Lara - Fingers crossed for good news on Monday

Nessie - Welcome, here's hoping you won't be POAS too often, IYSWIM!

Grr how annoying about your OH being away over OV again Code

Becca and Lemon: the doctors won't do any more for me until we've been trying 2 years so if I'm not PG by October I'll be going back to get referred to a FS. Feeling very full of PMA right now and saying that the next time at at the GP it'll be to tell them about my BFP!

Welcome Emylou! :wave: So sorry to hear about the MC.

How long have you been trying?

Thats brilliant you can now try without worrying!

Hi Emylou, welcome to the thread - although wish you didnt have to be here in the nicest possible way! Did you find out about your missed miscarriage at the 12 week scan? Thats what happened to me too.

Hope you have better luck with your opks this cycle.

Claire - try not to wind yourself up about it all I will get the wagging finger out if I need to. All pregnancies are different - so you can't guarentee that the signs will be the same. And your miscarriage may have knocked your cycles out of kilter - so not your 'new' normal might be not to have achy boobs before AF. You'll drive yourself crazy in the 2ww if your not careful. I know its hard tho :o Try to distract yourself with something else if you can xx

AFM - I had a sort of +ve OPK today - the test & control line were the same shade. Yesterday was darker on the test line. I just can't quite believe it is ov yet tho. No EWCM (altho this has been lacking since before the m/c now ) and temp low today. We BD'd yesterday and the day before - but wondering whether to try again today. If I thought it was ov time I'd be defo wanting to - but I'm just not so sure. I don't want to wear ourselves out but then I don't want my temp to rise tomorrow and me kick myself for wasting a BD opportunity. Hmmmm, guess I am answering my own question here aren't I..... :o If in doubt BD :o

Yeah Im definitely trying to distract myself. I think the worst thing though is that AF is due around Mon 28th. So I could start to spot on the weekend before - and Im going to see my friend who has a new born baby Was supposed to go around xmas time but had to postpone due to mc as I wasnt up for it and she told me to think about myself and just come another time. So will be pretty depressed if it happens when Im there!

If your temp is low Id definitely bd! Maybe you are ov today!:T

Lets hope we all get PG soon.

Good evening

Claire - will be keeping everything crossed that he witch doesn't show for you

Amy - hope that you feel better soon, although it doesn't sound like you are missing work too much!!

Code - how rude of your OH's bosses! Can you go with him for a secret rendezvous or is it too far away?

Welcome EmmyLou. Sorry to hear about your mc. Hope your stay here is short and sweet.

Thanks for the lists Becca. Please can you take me off the testing list and put me down as CD3. I am firmly in the choc and wine club, with added crisps.

I have been rather poorly the last few days with flu like symptoms and to have a heavy period at the same time just made it even more yucky. Whinge, whinge, whinge. Anyway, I have today finally bought some more batteries for my CBFM so will be able to power that up and reset it from tomorrow and that should pinpoint my ov more effectively.

I've been tracking my periods since my DD was born, and for the last 12 months my cycles have been:

27/33/28/26/25/29/23/28/27/27/27/29/26

Do you think that's pretty regular? Apart from the random 23 and 33 day months? At least they are not too long I suppose.

Sticky baby dust to all the ladies x
