anyone due af around 7th august? 6BFPS!!!!!!!!!!!

[lucy_smith]

And that's af in full forse

 

[London Kiwi]

Ah bugger Lucy!!! Sorry to hear that AF arrived 😟
And that you're not well. I personally haven't been sick Like that since I was a kid either - hope you're feeling better now. Maybe just a niggling bug.
So both back in the same boat yet again!
AF has stopped for me now. Have my scan next Monday.
Back to the drawing board!
Are you taking your little one trick or treating?

 

[lucy_smith]

im feeling much better !
hope your scan goes well.... think bf is coming round to going for the semen analysis, but as he works a lot, and his boss is family its not easy to ask for time off for a dr app, especialy as he doesnt want anyone knowing as he finds it embarrasing.... dont know how we are going to get over the embarrasment.... because if we do need treatment he will have to tell them eventually.....

how long until your due to ovulate now?

cd 6 today and due to ovulate in 10 days !
going to get some preseed ready this time.....
not mentioned it to bf yet, will probably just pick some up and then mention it to him... say i just seen it in boots and thought it seemed like a good idea

one of my friends who had a baby a few months after i had dd has announced last week that she is pregnant again. I am so happy for her, i realy am. but this is just another sting to tell me that im now just going to be sat here waiting while all my friends have there 2nd babys .... im not sure how i will cope. burst into tears infront of bf last night. its just so hard........ it breaks my heart that my dd may be an only child/ not be close enough in age to play with her next sibling

 

[London Kiwi]

Aww Lucy, Its so tough isnt it. Seems like everyone around me is getting pregnant also. I am always so delighted for the others given I know how hard it is to get pregnant but it is always a little kick in the guts isnt it.
It will happen for both of us soon, I know it! x

Im going to visit a friend tonight who had her baby last month, really looking forward to meeting him. and i've actually told her (the first one of my friends) that im doing this testing. She took a year to get pregnant and her mother in law works as a receptionist in a gynaecologist office so she kind of knows all about it, hoping she might have some words of wisdom!

I was going to message you today anyway! I got my letter for my scan on Monday 7th. I thought it was going to be a scan-scan type of scan, but nope, its a proper camera up there having a good look around. Seemingly it doesnt hurt, i've a high pain threshold anyway but I was just surprised I guess. Anyway, hopefully I will know more come Monday in regards to if they see anything odd. Still dont have my appointment for my surgery but assume i'll receive that in the coming days.

Something different about this month, I feel totally relaxed. Im even thinking i might not use any OPKs... that might change ha. Im CD9 today so nearly there yet again. AF is due a couple of days before the husbands bday so that would be a lovely birthday present then next AF is due right before Christmas. I guess either way its a hectic period coming up so my mind will be busy. Its great knowing all the tests are going on behind the scenes also.

Im delighted to hear that your partner is coming around slightly to the idea of the semen analysis. Yes it is embarrassing for them, but they need to understand our point of view too. Chances are he'll be totally grand and he wont need to go back for anything further. As for working for his family, that is tough. Maybe just take it one appointment at a time? He wont need to go to any more in the interim with you once this one is done. And if it comes to getting any further treatments you're right, they will need to know eventually. One step at a time.

We will get those BFPs Lucy! Positive thinking x

 

[London Kiwi]

Had my scan today.
Wont go into too much detail, im sure you can imagine what goes on!
She said that she couldnt see anything that looked strange, all looked relatively normal. She could also see a follicule on my right ovary so im probably due to ovulate in the coming days.

CD12 for me today. I am actually taking it very easy this month, not doing any OPKs or anything, just chilling and doing it when I fancy not just because I feel that I have to. I feel much better for it!

How are you Lucy?

 

[lucy_smith]

hey sorry i havnt gotten back, dd's not been well and i have been busy with work!

im still being sick every now and again..... dont know whats wrong with me ? !

how are you feeling ? ovulated yet ?

still getting lows on my cbfm think im due to get my 1st peak on monday

im a little more chilled out this month too,trying not to worry, but im sure that will change once i hit the 2ww .....

how are you getting on?

 

[London Kiwi]

Not good that you're still being sick, i hope it passes soon.

Ive been hectic at work also, been a nightmare this week - really looking forward to the weekend.

I think im officially in the TWW! CD16 for me today. I didnt do any OPKs this month, totally chilled out about it so im not sure when I ovulated, had a few cramps CD14/15 so i'll assume it was around then. AF is due Weds 23rd.

I dont know why i took the relaxed approach this month, I think it was because while i would love to see that BFP its also coming up to Christmas so I know I wont be devastated if it doesnt happen this month - Dec is always a great month. But i'll be back to those OPKs next month ha If I got my Christmas BFP that would also be amazing! (Dec AF is due 20th Dec)

Delighted to hear that you're also feeling relaxed.

I have another set of bloods being taken next Thursday and still awaiting the letter regarding my key hole surgery.

Hope you get your peak soon!

 

[London Kiwi]

How are you getting on Lucy? Did you get your peak?

CD20 for me today.
I have my next blood tests on Thursday morning.

 

[lucy_smith]

Hi, sorry havnt gotten back sooner!! Was away a lot this week and ended up not using my monitor so not sure when I ovulated ... Think I'm due af a week on Monday but still not 100% sure

How are you? When are u planning on testing?

 

[London Kiwi]

Hey Lucy

Aww sounds like one of those random weeks away when maybe you're not monitoring and it just might happen for you? That would be amazing!!

Were you on holiday?

So it's CD25 for me and without too many awful details - when I went to the loo before and wiped it was a bit pink. I think AF has got me super early this month I'm always like clock work 28 days with a bit of spotting on CD27

Bugger AF has got me again!

I don't know why so early this month... Maybe the stress of all the tests? But I feel fine about those. Work has been a bit crap - but that's standard, no idea!

Guess it's onto the next cycle. Got. Letter saying I'd get operation letter soon.

I sooooo hope you get that BFP this month Lucy! Has to be this month for one of us! X

 

[lucy_smith]

I was away to are family

Will have to wait and see!!
Got a big spot of pink blood last night, and brownish tinge all day today, 1 week before I'm due . I've had this before and had af turn up ..... But I also had spotting/ bleeding when I was pregnant with dd.

Hoping this sporting stops!!! Has af started fully now? Hope you get your date for your op soon!

 

[London Kiwi]

Morning Lucy
God this has been a painful heavy period aggh! I normally have light ones every 28-days so no idea whats gone wrong this time.... only work has been a bit full on, so that might be it.
Regardless i wasnt upset in the slightest... and have decided that next month has to be it!! surely, ha.
Hope you had a nice time with the family and im absolutely hoping that this bit of spotting is the start of a BFP for you! A week before your AF, surely this is a good sign? I have my fingers crossed for you!
I didnt use any OPKs or anything last month so think i'll get some this time, maybe even go back to CB ones which I havent used in months. I think i got a bit lazy, but now its back to Business
The Hospital was faxing my blood tests results to the GP today so hopefully I should hear something, and yeah... still patiently waiting for the surgery date.
Hope all is well with you, keep me posted on the spotting!

 

[London Kiwi]

All ok Lucy? Hows it going at your end?

I called the GP this morning and they've made me an appointment to go in on Tuesday to get my blood test results. Either way i'll know more then. Im not feeling overly positive to be honest - but i'll see on the day!

Right now im just happy its Friday

 

[lucy_smith]

Good luck with the results!! Keeps me posted
Hoping it's good news

Af is due on Monday I think ..... Don't realy know as I've not used my monitor
But will be testing tomorrow morning!!!

Feeling really down today.... I don't know why but feel like my emotions are all over the place, just want to snuggle up under a duvet with a film ... But it's the Christmas party and my dd needs to see Santa.... So no chance of that!

 

[London Kiwi]

Good luck for the test this morning Lucy! I'd be delighted to hear you got your BFP - have my fingers crossed for you!

I know how you feel, with the weather getting more miserable also... Def feels like duvet days on the cards. I have to go to a friends today and I can't be bothered. Mind you, he's got a cosy house, he's cooking us lunch, we'll have a few wines - will have that proper Christmas is coming feeling about it which is nice.
How was the trip to Santa?

I'm slightly concerned about getting the results on Tues, Only because they asked me to come in rather than tell me over the phone. But then on the other hand they might want me to go in to discuss next steps etc so I'll keep an open mind about it.

Now it's time to do loads and loads of washing! Domestic bliss

 

[lucy_smith]

Bad news over here

Bfn this morning and I have now started spotting..... Af is on her way

 

[London Kiwi]

Ah crap Lucy. Sorry to hear
Back to the drawing board!
Maybe we'll get Christmas BFPs?
Doctor for me tomorrow... I'll keep you posted on any news

 

[lucy_smith]

How did the drs appointment go ?

Bf is booked in for an appointment next week, hope it then means we should get a date for sperm analysis !

Worried bf mucks up the appointment though, I duno how but maybe by saying we havnt tried hard enough or something .... :/ I duno but we will have to see!

 

[London Kiwi]

What a painful few days it's been!

Time for my rant!! Sorry!

Had my GP appointment on Tues...

For weeks now the clinic has been saying call the GP for my results. My GP has two branches and they kept sending me to the other one etc etc... You get the picture.
Week before last the clinic re-faxed my results to the GP they told me they had received them and they were in the scanning pile so to call back in two days after the doctor has the chance to review them. I did that on Friday - still hadn't been looked at 😡 they made me an appointment for Tuesday and said the GP would review then discuss with me so I took the morning off work and went there... Not scanned and GP didn't know anything about them! 😡😡😡

The staff were in a meeting so instead of going and a) asking them or b) looking for the results herself she actually sent me away and said someone would call me!

I told her it was fkn ridiculous and she actually slammed the door in my face! I prob shouldn't have sworn at her but by this stage I was fuming.

No one called - of course!

So I chased again. Then I went to a meeting at work and got a voicemail from them saying CALL THE CLINIC for the results!!!!

Why the hell did they make me an appointment to discuss then?!

Anyway (haha you're prob not reading this anymore!) I called back to talk to surgery manager and they were in a meeting... She finally just called me back and said they felt that as I was referred from a gynaecologist they should tell me the results?!?!? I asked why they bothered to book me an appointment - her response "we had a meeting at lunchtime and decided we would no longer be giving out gynae results!" FFS!

So i finally got through to the clinic today (takes forever for them to answer as they are so busy). The receptionist said she would speak to the consultant and come back to me. Which she did and the results are all NORMAL !

Why couldn't the GP just tell me? Or someone tell me weeks ago.

So yeah that's my little moan, sorry! Haha.

They said pre-op appointment is scheduled for 6 Jan and in the meantime keep trying as normal. Apparently they are extremely busy at the moment so the key hole surgery could be Feb at this stage.

So yeah... Nothing out of the ordinary with the results so I think we have just had really bad luck timing wise... Shall keep on trying! CD11 today.

Great to hear you have your appointment booked in. You'll be pleased it's all moving forward. To be honest they didn't ask a lot of questions like how often do you try etc.... It was more a generalised how long have you been trying.

I hope AF has buggered off for you now Lucy! It's getting to that crazy busy time of year but I love it. Husbands bday is tomorrow, both have the day off work so looking forward to chilling out and having a nice meal.

December now so i can put the tree up!

 

[London Kiwi]

Hey Lucy

Are you in the TWW now?

Good luck with the appointment this week!
