[ticktock]

Don't the horrible 2wws come round quick, it sucks, will only be worth it when get a bfp at the end of it!

 

[dan-o]

AF here again for me.. 17 day cycle!

 

[Chrysalis]

Hi girls
Gotta be quick today as rushing off! Just wanted to say that if you haven't tried Conceive Plus then go for it! I have no idea if it works or not re. getting you up the duff but it has done wonders for the bding ;0) he he
Just think girls - the way England are playing we'll have our OH's back soon!
Sorry you had no luck this month Dan-o but at least you can start again quickly. I'm still waiting for the smiley face on my opk but getting lots in anyway! Going on holiday tomorrow so will try and forget about 2ww too.
Hope you are all well
Laters x

 

[ticktock]

oooh I got some pre seed so hope that helps!

Ah dan-o, were you expecting af that soon? you did ov early didn't you? Heard anything regarding FS apt yet?

have a great holiday chrysalis!!

 

[dan-o]

Ah dan-o, were you expecting af that soon? you did ov early didn't you? Heard anything regarding FS apt yet?

No, I was expecting it on weds, based on my OPK's. Must have been a shorter than usual LP.

My GP won't refer me, she says 2 years trying ins't long enough as I did get pregnant once on my Dec 08 cycle, with the molar pregnancy, so there's no reason why I wont again.

I am going for some bloods this week though, so maybe the results will flag something up I can get a referral based on.

If the bloods come back as OK, then I obviously I will just carry on TTC as normal until my OH's SA appt comes through.

I know I'm only 33, but I do feel like my fertile years are slipping by!

 

[ticktock]

ah Dan-o your gp sounds like a right old witch! its alright for them to say 2 years is nothing isn't it as they're not the one who's been waiting for 2 yrs!

At least you're getting blood tests and a SA apt so if it shows anything you can sort and if it doesn't then at least you'll know nothing is wrong,

33 is a good age but I know what you mean, we've had the fear of god put into us by all the info saying we 're done for by 35 lol when thats really not the case at all

My mum in law took over 2 yrs to have my husband and needed help to concieve him, then surprisingly had his little sister when she was 40! And she was told would never have children naturally!

I've still not a hint of a pos opk but I think I do have a v strong LH surge all of a sudden so expect it will just pop up one day. Soon hopefully lol

 

[mouse_chicky]

I justed wanted to pop in and say good luck girls! I'm rooting for you.

 

[ticktock]

thanks Mouse, hope you're feeling nice and pregnant!

I went to a baby shower today - NEVER again!!!! Everyone either had a baby or was pregnant. I felt like a barren aunt lol

Hi girls how are we all doing? Anyone else in the 2ww yet? I don't know what dpo I am, according to cbfm it's 5 I think. I have been a bit thrown this month as I always get sore boobs right after ovulation, but still now they are not sore! If I push on my left one, it is a bit (nice image) but normally by now they are really quite sore, then they tend to ease and get v sore couple days before af. I have had a google (so hard not to) and it's mixed, some saying it was their first symptom as it was unusual for them and some saying about annovulation (spelling?!) I guess my question would be, could cbfm show peak if I don't actually ovulate? Other than that feel fine, tired-I'm always tired!! How about everyone else? Ticktock, well done you-think I would duck out of baby showers at mo!!

 

[KittyCat82]

Oh and dan o, 2 years isn't long enough?? My gp said 12 months and we would look into it. Could you not get 2nd opinion?

 

[Chrysalis]

thanks Mouse, hope you're feeling nice and pregnant!

Hi - back from hols and feeling spritely! I was meant to be going to a baby shower today (what is it with baby showers all of a sudden - I'm sure they never used to have them in this country!) Anyway, I managed to get out of it. I don't feel bad as it is kind of a friend of my OH's wife (?). ANyway, phew! We will get there soon!!!! And then we can shower as many babies as we like!

Hey
I'm now in 2ww but like you not really sure what dpo - anout 5 or 6. And like you, absolutely no symptoms yet but then again I get sore bbs etc. every month and no bfp so I've decided that there's no point in analysing it! (yeah right I know I will!)
Hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine!!! I've decided I want to live by the sea! Great for little (and big) kids!

 

[dan-o]

I got my blood tests back yesterday, everything seems fine with me in that respect.
Sperm count for OH next, he doesn't mind though, bless him.
We know he has a MF, as he has a varicocele, we just don't know if it's affecting his sperm enough to stop us becoming preggers or not.

We could just be unlucky & it's taking a while... (hopefully!)


I've kind of lost track where everyone is in their cycles, is anyone due to test soon?

I've finished AF & I'm waiting for my +opk to get BD-ing again! xx

 

[ticktock]

glad your blood tests are a-ok and hope oh are ok too. hopefully you'll ov abit later this cycle dan-o!

Hope you had a good holiday chrysalis, maybe you'll get a holiday bfp!!!

I've been using cheapy opks this month as forgot to set cbfm and was just giving up hope that I was using them right as still hadn't got a positive and just used one now thats quite dark so is either tail end of surge or beginning of surge. Either way I'm pleased as due to being ill and then hubby was away have had hardly any chance of bding so had resigned this cycle to being a bust. So will grab hubby when he gets in and may have a small chance at least!
Have ov'd pretty late for me thou!
Am def setting cbfm properly next month, I miss it lol

 

[KittyCat82]

Hi girls-just a quick one, as I am at work but af got me again yesterday I had been feeling quite ill for a week or so and been having sort of dull ache and occasional stabbing pain low in stomach plus felt exhausted so was kind of thinking...oh well. I was gutted yesterday to be honest, spent all night in bed (period pains were quite bad) Its now been 6 months not using anything but I guess only 4 really ttc. I dont know why, but it has really got to me this month. I am half thinking of not using the cbfm and going back to just not being careful and trying not to think about it too much. I know however I will most probably be rushing to get my little sticks any day now!! Sorry for sounding so down. Hubby went to docs last week as he had a cyst last year so he went to see if that may be causing any problems. Dr said no but said he could send him for sperm analysis which he is doing today-was v surprised, he says the Dr didnt even ask how long we had been trying. Hubby says its because he only ever goes to the Dr once every few years so he is extra nice to him!! How is everyone else getting on? I do hope someone has a BFP this month!!!! X x

 

[dan-o]

Sorry AF got you hun

Good luck with the SA, mine is going for his a week on monday xx

 

[DaretoDream]

Hi i'm 21 dpo today and on cd 38. We're trying for our first. Hoping that either af or bfp come soon so i can either - celebrate or get trying again. I was just told i have to wait another week by my obgyn nurse and test again OR do a blood test.

I am looking for buddies.

 

[dan-o]

Hi daretodream, 21dpo should show a very clear positive if you are pregnant!

 

[DaretoDream]

Well i tested on 20dpo- tuesday, and got nothing. I'm assuming it's def neg but- i haven't gotten af yet. Well when she shows up- she's getting a punch to the face for being so late and making me crazy.

 

[KittyCat82]

Hi daretodream-welcome! Good luck to you-you must have pretty long cycles then? How is everyone else doing? Dan-o do you know how long you have to wait for SA results? Hubby went last Thurs and still nothing-the doc said he should hear by yesterday but he doesnt want to ring up and 'bother them'! I will make him ring to see if we havent heard by tomorrow!! I have just been looking into acupuncture-a place near me does it and has rave reviews from a lot of medical people-have a consultation booked at end of July-anyone else looked into this?? X
