Yes but it’ll have to be after work this evening though! Lol the wait will suck!

Good luck, sorry you have to wait..try and get a good hold and not to over drink.

Thanks! I’ve been testing out my trigger shot so I’m watching it fade, but it’s just darker today compared to last cycles same day.

@PinkCupcakes its hard to tell with the scratch, but it looks like it still has a line, where last month was basically blank by 9dpiui. Really hope its darker tomorrow!

Thank you! I really hope so too! I’m so drained of trying and trying with no baby

I know ...I thought it looked darker too.

Having mild cramping off and on today, feels strange!

Hey all, can I join? I've read the whole thread first so I feel like I know you all already!

I'm 46 and ttc #6. I'm on 4dpo, and will test on the 16th!

Just wondering how often does everyone have sex typically on other weeks when its not fertile week? Should you still be doing it 2-3 days

@motherofboys and @BabyBrain80
They took 2 viles today so hoping that will be enough and we will get the results ASAP.
My gender scan went well she said baby looks perfect.
We are having a little boy I've also decided to get the gender with the blood results too but there was no mistaken it.
He was waving it was so cute.
I feel better now I've seen him she did say he looks perfect so hoping that was a good sign.

@BabyBrain80 did u know the NT measurements when u had the combined scan and bloods with the hospital? I looked in my notes and at at 12+6 weeks which is when they also did the bloods after the dating scan.
The NT measurements was 2.0 mm so well worth within the normal range.
Praying these are all good signs.

Congrats to all the bfpers and big hugs and encouragement to those of us waiting to test or moving on to a new cycle.

I'm sneaking in. I will be ttcing still if things don't work out for my little bean. Very shocked, scared, hopeful but prepared for things to go either way.

@Deethehippy Hey lady!!! Good to see you back on the boards. Praying the surgery really helped your body prepare for a lil bub to implant.

@PinkCupcakes I hope this IUI is it for you!! FX those test lines come back strong. Hugs

Hope everyone had a blessed weekend and be safe.

Oh I really hope so too! Ugghhh the wait is killing me!! Lol I don’t have high hopes though but still crossing my fingers!

 

[PinkCupcakes]

It’s weird though, my boobs still don’t hurt and normally they hurt bad from O to AF!

 

[motherofboys]

@motherofboys If your partners count isn’t great they won’t do IUI? They’ve been very proactive with us (I am in Slovenia) but I think it’s because it’s our first that we are trying for and they have a shrinking population.

@Suggerhoney Who would have thought you would be in another tww in your second trimester? I guess you are in the right forum . Joking aside I have everything crossed all your results come back great.

@Deethehippy How did your surgery go?

@Dream143r I see that line!

I am on cd 9... libido is high but no fertile cm yet. I think I’ll start opks on Monday. I don’t want to buy a second pack unnecessarily.

I dont know that his count is low, just sort of guessing at things that they could find if they investigated. Seeing as we've conceived 6 times and had 5 babies from that, and I'm "only" 34 then all I could think of would be that I'm not ovulating (which given all my symptoms and then af arriving in line with those on a regular basis, I would say that I am) my tubes are blocked (I doubt it's that, I had a baby last year who was the result of LTTTC, as was my 7 year old) or that his count had dropped. It could be nothing at all and just one of those things. Some couples go through investigation to find there's not actually a reason they aren't conceiving.
Anyway, with 5 kids the short answer is no. I have a friend with 2 daughters who they found wasn't ovulating and she had to pay for clomid. She could only afford a few months worth so after that had to go it alone and hope the clomid kick started her body. It didn't. She was trying 6 years, didn't get her 3rd baby, she's now single.
Another friend who met a new partner who had had cancer when he was younger which had affected his fertility, but because she already has a son they were told they would have to pay. And a third who again met a new partner, I'm not sure what the problem was, but again she already had a child so they couldn't get help. It's very unfair, particularly in those last 2 cases I mentioned, as both times the male partner has no children at all, and because the female partner has 1 child they couldn't be helped.

Hello hon wishing u lots of luck

Awww congratulations on your little boy! I hope they don't keep you waiting too long for results

 

[alex_ivory]

@Suggerhoney, so it’s a baby boy! How exciting
Your youngest child is also a boy, right? He is getting a little buddy.

 

[Dream143r]

Cd27 and 11DPO. Positive on the digital always gives a little sigh of relief. Please stick and grow baby!

Oh YAY! How nice to have such strong confirmations!!!

 

[PinkCupcakes]

So here is my test from today now dry, it for sure looks darker than yesterday’s. I usually start to get way light by 8dpiui. I want to be excited but at the same time I’m afraid to be excited because it’s probably the trigger being weird, but I’ve had six triggers now so I know when it’s usually gone by! I’m nervous for tomorrow’s test!



also compared to last cycle... left is now and right is last cycle

 

[jellybeanxx]

@PinkCupcakes that’s definitely looking darker this cycle! I’m so excited for you and keeping everything crossed!

@Suggerhoney so glad all went well with the scan and massive congratulations on your boy, wonderful news! I hope the blood test results come back soon!

CD19 here and no idea if/when I’ve ovulated. I’m being very good and staying away from OPKs etc. I did have some EWCM for a few days during the week so will see! If AF isn’t here by 18th I’ll probably test then.

@motherofboys I know what you mean about reading these threads and it causing you to obsess more, but when you’ve spent as much of your life TTC as we have, it’s very hard to switch off from it anyway!

 

[Teafor2]

@motherofboys That is so unfair. It sounds so old school too... basically making a decision for a woman on whether or not she should have more children.

@Deethehippy oww that sounds painful! Hopefully your fresh new womb will be super fertile

@PinkCupcakes it does look darker than yesterday and previous months!! I really hope this is it for you!
