    Spent the last 3.5 hours in the walk in centre for a chest infection, I'm on antibiotics for a week. Does anyone know if these will affect ttc?
    I'm CD8 so we need to start BDing so I'm hoping I start to feel better soon.
  • The doctor said OH's hormones were not at correct levels so has referred him to the hospital (not the fertility department, he didn't know which department, he also didn't now which hormones etc, men never ask enough questions hahaha). She said they need to look into this first before referring me for further tests which is frustrating as I'd rather just get everything checked asap but it is what it is for now. Oh has a telephone consultation first which is a week on Monday so not too long to wait. Fingers crossed he just needs some medication, his sperm count returns to normal and we can crack on! I do think this is a long journey though and we will be lucky if a BFP comes this year, but at least we are on the path now.

    Skimper, meds and being ill can affect ovulation. Your body won't ovulate as it knows it isn't well enough to implant. So don't be surprised if you ovulate later than normal but at this means you have time to BD! :)
  • So, I used to frequent this thread. 9 months TTC, positive in October. Miscarried November 13th (on my birthday). Was overjoyed in December when we realised we had caught immediately after MC. On Tuesday was given the news that the pregnancy had stopped growing at 7 weeks, heartbeat had stopped and two nights ago was given the tablets to deliver the products of conception. To say I'm deflated is an understatement. I never thought I'd be a statistic.
  • I’m so so sorry to hear that. Look after yourself xx
  • I am so sorry to hear that tryingin2018. Please be kind to yourself and take some time. You must be in piece (understandably). Sending you lots of love
  • Thinking of you tryingin2018 x
  • So AF is now "2 days late"; when this happened before she didn't arrive and I missed a month (neg test). I took two tests last week (Monday and Thursday I think), both neg. I have had really bad cramping since last Wednesday so who knows what's going on in there. Do you think it's worth re-testing this week if AF doesn't arrive?


    Thanks x

    So sorry to hear trying. Look after yourself.

    Cheeky peach - I would definitely test again I'm a few days, some people take longer to show on tests. If it was me I would test other wise it would be on my mind for the next 4 weeks till AF turned up.
