Almost 44 final ttc journey -- buddies needed : )

[mitchnorm]

So sorry Beck! I have everything crossed.

I did have my u/s yesterday...the little guy's heartbeat went from 102 measuring 6 weeks 2 days to 151 measuring 8 weeks! So pleasantly surprised. I was so nervous. Really hoping this little bean burrows in. I know I'm not out of the woods. Both MC took place at 9 weeks so I'm praying hard.

Hey tag74.....I remember you from another thread. I think we got bfps at the same time. Unfortunately I miscarried twice at bang on 9 weeks last year too....first in July and second in December. ..xmas eve of all times. I am back on the ttc trail but so scared that same will happen again. Have a fertility consultant appt on the 9th so maybe they'll have some answers. Currently CD3. .....

Sorry to butt in..... Anyone take baby aspirin or soy isoflavones? X x

 

[Oasis717]

Hi Mitch, I'm allergic to aspirin so that's out! But I did have blood clotting tests a few yrs back and all neg so I think its hormonal or my eggs tbh. So sorry for your losses I also found out boxing day I was having a cp, another fail, awful Xmas present I'm reality scared too I've had so many losses now, I'm CD 15 o on CD 12 which is the earliest I've ever o but dh working away so bd was 2 days before, not hopeful! Xx

 

[mitchnorm]

I'm still on the fence with soy isoflavones. ..I took a lower dose yesterday...should take for next 4 days but unsure. Bought baby aspirin today.

Hoping something comes out of some further tests next week x x

 

[TTC74]

I'm not taking baby aspirin, but as soon as I see a BFP, I will. I'm taking the following vits and supps:

Vits B12 & E, DHEA, Prenatal, and Omega supplement. I usually supp withg FertileAide and OvaBoost, too. This month I'm laying off bc I'm not sure if I'll even be able to ttc this month bc of my herniated disc and the likelihood I'll have to schedule surgery. And, while I know it would be best to take the supps every day, those pups are expensive!

Hi ladies, hope you are all well

I'm having another strange cycle and don't really know what's going on Firstly I had my first +opk on CD14 which is a week early for me, even on Clomid it's only around CD's 17-18.

I think I ovulated yesterday CD16 but temps have not confirmed yet. Yesterday in the mid afternoon I started spotting quite a lot of (TMI) dark pink and it continued very light for the rest of the day. We BD last night and this morning (more TMI) my soft cup was full of dark pink blood, maybe it just seemed a lot cos it was all in the same place. I have ovary pain and light cramping but that is pretty normal for me.

I realise that I'm probably in peri-menopause but I don't have any of the symptoms, my cycles are mostly regular, I ovulate every month and have never had a hot flush. It never ceases to amaze me how much I don't have a clue about what's going on with my body

Mitch, I am alternating with Soy and Clomid, this month I have been taking Soy. I don't really notice any effects with soy although I believe it does work. I had an epic 74 day cycle last year and took soy for 5 days starting CD57 and I ovulated CD62. Since then I have alternated between Soy and Clomid to give my ovaries a kick up the bum

 

[Oasis717]

Its so confusing when you don't know what's going on! Hope you get your CH soon, not sure what the bleeding could be? I had v bad cramps yesterday all day but eased now not sure what that is either? Xx

 

[lunamoona]

Becks, I have odd cramping a lot of the time too, it started halfway through that long cycle I had last year and is definitely worse during the second half of my cycle. I have managed to get my CH's but my temps are dire Can't wait for this cycle to be over.

 

[Oasis717]

Yes me too love I seem to cramp at all different points in my cycle and it doesn't really mean much pregnancy wise anyway, I would like to know why I get them so bad sometimes! Apparently I o CD 12 but that's so early for me I guess if AF comes next Monday then its about right! Hope this cycle picks up for you and your temps xx

 

[lunamoona]

I ovulated early too! A whole week early! How is that even possible?Didn't OPK soon enough so didn't start BD early enough, lucky to catch it at all really. Roll on next month.

 

[mitchnorm]

How early has anyone ovulated in a month? Day 7 here and I can feel some signs iykwim x

 

[tag74]

Mitchnorm, of course I remember you! My MC were July and September both at 9 weeks as well..it's heartbreaking. Praying this little one stays put.

This morning I had the genetic panorama test to test for genetic abnormalities. Results in 2 weeks.

As for early ovulation, I did ovulate at 9dpo and got pregnant with my daughter! It totally can happen.

How is everyone else doing?

Both at 9 weeks as well. ...snap!!!! Mad isn't it. Are you doing anything different this time? Supplements or aspirin or anything? Both times I had booked the Serenity test (similar to panorama) but never got that far. Everything crossed for this time x x x

Good luck to you x

 

[tag74]

Thank you!

The method we used was "giving up!"

My DH went and bought a two door sports car, I started exercising a lot and bam...I missed my period and was shocked!

I was continuing my prenatal, baby aspirin and folate as I was going to finish the cycle I got pregnant on and then stop. I had already stopped temping and using OPKs so even my ovulation date isn't certain.

Nervous until I get the results back but trying to stay hopeful!

I have everything crossed for you all! xoxo

 

[Sunshine14]

Hello ladies how are you all? Sorry I haven't been online for ages we only just got internet following our house move!! Only a month after we moved in!! How is everyone doing?

 

[Oasis717]

Hey Carmel, doing OK cd2 for me, dh back for good from working away, hope all is ok with you all, I had a 15 day lp last cycle which is odd unless cp for me but I didn't test from 10 to 14 dpo so wouldn't know! Think we've pretty much given up now, 2 and half years and only losses so I think my time has passed now! Will still track o and temp just for my own records xxx

 

[lunamoona]

Hello ladies, not much happening here, CD1 for me.

Last cycle was the most textbook cycle I have had in 6 years, ovulation on CD15 and a 14 day luteal phase, those supplements must be doing something. Of course my eggs must be on their Zimmer frames by now but I'm just not ready to give up yet.

 

[Oasis717]

That's great Luna and snap with the eggs that made me lol zimmer frames! I don't think I will ever totally give up until the menopause but for my own sanity I do think I need to come to terms with the fact that for me anyway I don't think I'll have another baby, im sure I will get pregnant again but I just don't seem to be able to have a healthy pregnancy anymore, I know there's always that slim slim chance but I do think its unlikely. I have my furbaby to keep me busy, he's called Hendrix and he's just over 8 weeks old xx

 

[lunamoona]

OMG Hendrix is the cutest, I have 5 dogs and a cat, couldn't be without my fur babies.
I'm also not convinced that I will have another baby but the only way to find out is by trying every single cycle for as long as I can stay sane, got nothing really to lose.

 

[Oasis717]

Of course! Wishing you the very best of luck, and thankyou xxx
