why did it change the day hearty? its only done that to me if i put in another opk +ve, do you know what went on to change it? (edit, i assume it was as your temps dipped slightly on what was 4dpo?)

i see what you mean, if you took progesterone and your temps went up 'mechanically', would that mean ov your would still show on your chart

did the ov show before you started taking progesterone? you started at 2dpo, was that right? and how many days it taking it does it raise your temperature artificially? sparkly might have some answers

dont worry about the bd pattern, you have some in place at the right time. I think you have to try this stuff out and see how it fits sometimes. Do you need the progesterone? Can you start it a bit later in the cycle, like 5dpo?

 

[NatoPMT]

Sorry hearty, forgot to say that i assume Mr T will look at why i am not getting pregnant before he treats me. On his price list:

https://www.argc.co.uk/prices.html

theres cyst aspiration, IUI and Hysteroscopy too

I love your stories Vic, thank you - i defo dont have 5 months of short cycles, qute scary to think you can go to pre menopausal in 5 cycles though. Hence the panic and phoning Mr T - it has to start somewhere

i forgot to ask as well Vic, did your 10-day-bd-bfp friend have a baby girl?

How are you feeling? and how's your crappy boss?

 

[pregoinnorge]

thanks you guys, it means so much to hear your thoughts and advice. I haven't heard from them because I sent the message at the end of the working day. The ER here won't do anything so I basically have to wait until tomorrow for the private clinic. I'll try calling in the morning if I don't hear from them.
I think I am going to get a dog when I move to the new place. Any suggestions? I want one that would like to go for hikes but isn't too big...

 

[vickyd]

Nato even with 5 months short cycles you only start to investigate he said. There are many reasons apparently for shorter cycles. I had 3 cycles with 27, 25, 24 days when my cycles pre-loss were 31 days! You can imagine my panic!

My friend beleive it or not had a boy! we were all sure she would have a girl based on the sex being soooo much earlier than ovulation. This story i share with all my mates who use the "i dont have sex during ovulation window" to avoid getting pregnant!

Im doing better, my boss is being nice to me these two days. Im hoping its cause he realised what a twat he was being but as Alex says he just probably wants me happy so that he can work me to the bone lol!

 

[heart tree]

I'm about to meet a client. Will be back later. Hugs all around.

 

[vickyd]

Amy great idea about getting a dog! Can i make a suggestion? If you have an animal shelter in your town with mix breeds, adopt one!! They are the smartest and most giving creatures! I saved popi from a dumpster when she was 3 months old and she has been a life saver for me! She is extremely intelligent, imagine that i managed to potty train her in 4 days!

 

[pregoinnorge]

omg, i just saw your scan pics sassy! so adorable i'm so happy for you!

Poor kristian is in his shitty apartment with no furniture sending me links on how spotting can be nothing---like I have never googled them before, haha. I feel bad I told him when he's so far away and can't do anything about it anyway.

i would totally like a cute and cuddly mutt, just someone to go for walks and snuggle with

 

[NatoPMT]

that really is an excellent idea about getting a dog,i dont know why i didnt think of that cos i have requested johns family dog on loan for when hes away - dur!!!

and i totally agree with Vic on getting a rescue dog. I think thats the most socially responsible thing to do. Like i am dead socially responsible or somert. A rescue doggie would LOVE hikes in the hills. Cross breeds are more intelligent, and less vets bills too - they are less likely to have the same dodgy hips or heart murmurs

im excited about your new dog.

Vic, i think id have keeled over if i had a 24 day cycle. I think i mightve needed the vet. I wonder if your friend got her dates mixed up, that does sound like an incredible story. I am hoping that it snows harder and closes heathrow airport and gives us a days grace but wishing that flight misery on all those people is very socially irresponsible so i didnt say that, right.

See you later hearty!

 

[vickyd]

It is an incredible story i know! We have argued this a million times! She is 100% sure that she did not get her dates mixed up. Who knows really???
So far theyve closed Gatwick right? Who knows, maybe Heathrow will be next!

 

[NatoPMT]

The snow seems to have stopped now Vic, the whole universe has conspired against me for this cycle. with sun forecast for Sunday and Monday. Humph. Stupid sunny weather. i would say stupid universe but am scared of thunderbolts

i wonder if the universe made my cycle short so my cd day would be CD9 instead of CD 7 on Monday. That must be it.

if your friend can do it, i would like to pretend i can too

Glad your boss is being a bit less wankeryish. He must be scared of losing you as well

 

[Allie84]

Sending you massive Amy. I remember Sassy, Cesca, and Raz having bleeding and being fine, and probably more that I can't remember. Mel had some fluid that concerned one doc and then it was fine. It's really sweet of Kristian to be sending you those links like you haven't looked, awwww. Good luck tomorrow and try not to worry. Thinking of you.

Oh, and getting a dog is a wonderful idea. We're getting one too, actually! We had to go through Alex's dr. and get him assigned a 'companion animal' to help with lonliness and it worked (when I tried it didn't). We're definitely going to be going the animal rescue or humane society. We'll probably both be getting a doggie at the same time.

Oh, crap, that's the bell. Off to class. I wanted to responde to Hearty as well...but just want to say given your signs compared to last month, and the Femera, I bet you did ov!!!

 

[Megg33k]

Nato - I'm glad you're going to seek him out and see what he says. At least you'll know more after you see him. I really hope you don't have to do IVF. I know that I'm a fan of it, but I don't wish it on anyone. It was easier when I wasn't doing 3 shots a day.

Amy - I'm so glad the spotting stopped! I think it would have gotten worse instead of stopping if something bad were happening.

i would actually rather have my husband here with me and no baby, then him gone.

I totally understand what you mean. I would much rather spend my whole life without a child than to be without my husband. I wouldn't survive without him. I want a child so, so much... but I know I've lived without one for this long and would continue to survive. I don't know what I'd do without Kevin.

Poor kristian is in his shitty apartment with no furniture sending me links on how spotting can be nothing---like I have never googled them before, haha. I feel bad I told him when he's so far away and can't do anything about it anyway.

That's incredibly sweet! The dog sounds like a great idea!


Hearty - I'm sure you ovulated, honey! And, your timing was probably fine! What will be will be! Don't stress over things you can't change!

Sassy - I'm SO excited about your new home!

 

[NatoPMT]

Thanks megg. Im kind of ignoring everything you're going through and stayed out of the ivf threads cos if i think about it, i wont do it. I know how hard its been for you and i think i have to just go for it.

you might very well be right near the end of your quest. just imagine. (well, im sure you have)

i think i agree, i think my husband means more to me than anything else in the world. I guess thats something to think about. You forget how lucky you are when something else is missing.

ps, i read tonight that being overweight increases cm, so i am dutifully forcing down a chocolate pudding

Hi girls, Amy hope you are doing ok sweetheart. I think a dog is a fab idea. I adore my doggie Henry. He's a yellow labrador, and he's so soft and affectionate. I'm always cuddled up with him, and he's by baby substitute!

Hearty, how come FF changed your ov day? I'm sure you'll be ok any way. You BD'd quite a bit around that time didn't you? You also got highs leading into a peak on the CBFM. I reckon they are pretty reliable, so I would take more notice of when you got your peak.

Nato, I think your cycle days are absolutely fine, but I'm pleased you are booking with Mr T. I'm sure it will be reassuring knowing what your options are. Maybe you'll get seen before 3/4 weeks, it was just what I read on their website. When I booked my private appt with Prof Balen, it was under a 2 week wait, which I was very impressed with. Having said that, you pay shit loads for it, so that's probably why it doesn't take long!

AFM I've had another "working from home' day cos of the snow. In reality, I've watched it's a wonderful life and Friday 13th on sky suppose I'd better drag my arse in tomorrow before I get sacked! There's still a good foot of snow here, and it's starting to freeze up again! Nato, you can have some of our snow, I'm sick of it now!

Hi to everyone else x

 

[LucyJ]

Amy to you I am so sorry you've been though this it is so hard and scary when you've suffered a loss but as the other girls have said it may be nothing to worry about pleased the spotting has stopped. I'm thinking of you here if you need anything.

I think getting a dog is a great idea I would love to have one but Steve has said no.

Megg pleased your injection went better and I second the holy crap at the egg extraction.

Sassy loving your new home, so so happy for you.

Nato pleased you've made the call be good to see what he says, its a step forward and gives you some control. Try not to worry I'm sure this month was just a blip. Oh and I'm going to say it for you I hope heathrow is shut so you get an extra few days.

Hearty I am sure you ovulated and I'm keeping everything crossed for you.

Sarah so lovely to see you you've been thourgh so much and you are an incredibly strong women and I hope you get your BFP.

 

[sugarlove]

here's a pic of my little angel cake to convince everyone to get a dog

 

[LucyJ]

aww sugar he's so lovely I would love a dog (had them when I was growing up) steve definitely has said no I'm hoping he might cave eventually but not sure he will.

 

[LucyJ]

Mel I'm glad everything is alright with your little one but sorry your in so much pain its good your seeing someone my friend suffered from the same thing in her second pregnancy she went on to have natural birth her little one is just over one now. Hope all goes well with physio try and take it easy.
