It's been 7 weeks since mc but still not af...when to ring the GP?

[GI_Jane]

Think I'm having o twinges but no positive opk yet...is that possible? Or maybe I missed the surge....no Ewcm though....hmm will see what the next few days bring.

 

[mlm115]

I think it's possible Jane. Maybe means your about to ovulate. I had ovulation symptoms starting 6 days before I actually ovulated.

 

[bobster]

Me too I always have them in the week upto O. In fact thought I had some yesterday but too early. Do opk's when you have a change in discharge if you don't want to waste them. Keep us posted

 

[MrsPhez]

Go for it Jane!
Think I'm 7DPO today. If I'm preggers it would be an actual miracle. Getting some af like pains now and my chin broke out yesterday which usually indicates AF is not far away. Hoping it's just progesterone related. Luckily my temp is still high and showing no sign of dropping just yet (not triphasic yet!)

Hey Mackjess! How are you feeling? Have you got a little bump now?
The ladies on here mentioned you conceived after bding 5 days before o, is that right? (Not that I don't trust them, just want to hear it from the horses mouth so to speak). Hope you're enjoying pregnancy!

Thanks ladies, I'm planning on doing just that using some pre-seed

 

[bobster]

Yay bd as much as possible now Jane. We need another bfp on this thread!!!

 

[bobster]

God I sounded really bossy then sorry! ....But get to it lady!

It's true. It was at least 3-5 days, both times! When I got pregnant in August my DH went out of town on a biz trip the day of my window, like 5 days before I OV which was good because I was trying NOT to that month. He has some super swimmers or something.
In October it may have been about 4 days before. We were trying that time and I used preseed as well.

 

[GI_Jane]

Are your temps still high mrs phez? After you o, what point will they drop if you are not pregnant?

 

[MrsPhez]

Are your temps still high mrs phez? After you o, what point will they drop if you are not pregnant?

Hiya! Yes they are high still, in fact there was a little jump of about 0.25 this morning but I'm not reading anything into it. My last LP after mc was only 9 days and it started falling from day 6 or something. Hope to get to at least 10days this time before the crash! Wasnt temping before so not sure what to expect tbh. I'm 8DPO today.
Been so good to be healthy this week, fast walking every day, diet, vits, no alcohol...still on the caffeine though, it's my only vice!
How are the opks coming along, any signs of o yet?

 

[bobster]

Oh mrsphez, your luteal phase is looking like its going to be much better this cycle so thats great! How are you feeling about this cycle? well done on the healthy lifestyle this week, I'm trying to eat better too but failing on the exercise and the caffeine a bit.

Jane how are you doing? Any ewcm yet?

I have 7 days until ovulation. Noticed my cm is increased now which is good. Don't know what to do about bd'ing this cycle as we bd'd a lot in the run up to o last cycle but then oh got tired and didn't want it on o itself so I'm wondering whether I should put off bd'ing until a couple of days before o this cycle and then try to seduce oh on o itself. What are you planning with bd'ing jane?

Its so hard to know as ph might be stressed etc around o time he's like a hormonal teenager at times (he's stopped smoking for new year).

Mrsphez, when do you plan to test?

How's mlm and Mackjess?

 

[bobster]

Jane, I'm going to O on sunday I think (next week) so we'll be in 2ww together this cycle yippeeee!

 

[mlm115]

Hello ladies! I'm in the boring phase of my cycle right now. I'm on cd 5, seems like af is finishing today. I'm not going to use opks this month as I think I can figure it out without them. We'll see how that goes. Of the 4 months total weve TTC, I've ovulated on cd 17, 14, 16, & 19, so I still have a lot of time left. Will try to bd about every other day starting on cd 8. Definitely getting some presseed too!

When will you test mrs Phez? Good luck!

Jane and Bobster, hope you catch your eggys!! Go girls go!

 

[GI_Jane]

Hey ladies,

Well done on the healthy eating Mrs Phez and bobster. I've been doing better also this week and did a run Saturday morning but I need to be more consistent with the exercise- no alcohol since new year eve either. I did just bake some oat and blueberry cookies though- yum yum.

Sounds like your luteal phase will be longer this month Mrs Phez, but lets hope your temperatures stay raised and you get your BFP.

Opks are still negative and no ewcm but we have been baby dancing as its the weekend and tend to bd more then anyway. But I will be extra vigilant during the week and try and get it in a couple of times in addition to when cm and opk indicate to. But like you bobster I don't want to over do it just incase we lose interest by the time I do actually O.

I read a post about someone who got her OH to do it in a cup everyday and she would inseminate herself and got her BFP that way. Less hassle if you are too tired to do it! I might bring it up in conversation with dh and see what his views are!!

I feel like I'm doing everything I can this cycle with the OPKS, reflexology and pre-seed. Lets hope it makes a difference.

It will be great to have your company during the 2ww bobster

 

[bobster]

Oh my gosh, not sure I would want to inseminate myself... could be messy!

Although would be handy when we're both tired and lack of sex drive!

Hmmmmmmmmm...

I have some ewcm (just a smidge) and deffo increased general cm... I'm glad you are feeling positive about this cycle Jane. One of us surely has to get a bfp out of sheer chance surely!

 

[MrsPhez]

Oh my God, that's so unromantic (*****ing into a cup that is). But TTC is isn't it?! I find anyway.....maybe it's just me!
I am probably going to test in 3 days time, so Wednesday. With both my prev BFPs it was 11DPO both times, hope it's lucky for me this time. Think there's a 10% chance if you DTD 5 days before O, and with my age a factor as well, the odds are even slimmer. If my temps drop I prob won't test......
Just been to out of hours GP with our boy who has a horrid chest infection and is struggling to breathe. Could be asthmatic but too early to diagnose. Up all night with him so I'm shattered. Tempted by chocolate...
Good luck Jane and Bobster in your 2WWs, I'll be rooting for you! Mlm, won't be long till you get to a more "exciting" day so to speak. Amazing how much patience we are required to have during this process, and that's before pregnancy!

I agree, one of us is due a bfp just by chance as you say. Still no opk smiley face yet

 

[GI_Jane]

Oh today is cd27, this was my usual o day before the loss. It's taking so long to get back to normal, the loss was in September, sigh.

Did you see that the royal baby is due in July?
