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

[MrsPhez]

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?

No I didn't see that yet. It's hard watching her go thru her pregnancy when I would have been (was due in June). I have moved on but that reminder will be there forever.....good luck to them both tho, seem lovely couple.
Hope it wont be too long till you o now Jane

It seems to be taking me awhile to get back to normal as well. Makes it hard to see so many people (famous) pregnant. Expecially when they are due around the time that I was suppose to.

Hi Nikkie,
Yes there do seem to be pregnant clebs everywhere you look. And lots with twins due to. Think I'm turning a little bit green!
Hope you level out soon. Took me 7.5 weeks before I got a "proper" AF but had 2 days of brown spotting half way.

Jane, don't worry you will o, just try and continue with opk's. It can take a while to settle for some people (most of us on here included). Your cycles have been a bit longer but getting shorter with each one so if you last cycle was about 50 days your o might not be until cd 36.... how long was your last cycle again? Hopefully it will be even shorter still so it brings your O forward a bit.

What a pain being a woman is. I agree that ttc is about the most unromantic thing ever. I'm struggling to even enjoy sex at the moment just because I know its for a purpose rather than just relaxing. I think this is rubbing off on OH too as we tried to do it yesterday and he couldn't even get a proper erection, it was soft. He said he feels anxious about performance etc. Just seems a hopeless cause atm.

I got a negative smiley today too, think I will probably O around friday/saturday/sunday. I'm feeling maybe I need some time out from ttc. MrsPhez good luck for testing tomorrow, we're all rooting for you!!!

 

[bobster]

Jane do you have the snow yet? Its sooo pretty here!

 

[MrsPhez]

Thanks Bosbter. I tested to day 10DPO BFN, no surpirise really. Having vivid dreams, extra CM and v tired. At least if at I'm not pregnant I know that are these are just LP signs from progesterone and not preg symptoms.....
Will keep you posted. Sorry got to go......

 

[bobster]

Good luck. 10dpo still early but you're right, progesterone can mimmick pregnancy very well! We'll all get there in the end girls.

 

[nikkie122]

Good luck everyone!! Hoping my cycle is getting back to normal.. Still testing with OPK's but no positive. I think I should have started testing earlier. Im afried I might have already ovulated.

 

[MrsPhez]

Good luck. 10dpo still early but you're right, progesterone can mimmick pregnancy very well! We'll all get there in the end girls.

Yes we will! Good news today on 10DPO is my temp is still high, not reduced at all. Good news for the old LP this cycle.

Hey ladies,

Yes, we had snow yesterday bobster but it didn't accumulate, none today though-saw Yorkshire on the news had a lot. More predicted at the end of the week. Bloody cold though. You guys up north always get it worse then us in the south. Where do you live mrs phez?

Yep still no smiley face opk or change in cm but it could still be a week away yet. Previous cycles were 57 days and most recent 51 so i'm hoping this cycle will be a little shorter too. I've still got 13 digital opk's left and I'm just going to use as many as I need if it means I get my bfp this cycle rather than trying to save some for next month. Just to have proof I am actually ovulating will be nice too!

Bobster, I'm sorry to hear about your oh. We haven't done it since the weekend and I've not been talking to him about TTC so hope he won't feel pressured. It's really difficult isn't it, not sure what to suggest.

Mrs phez, that's great about your temps, will you keep testing or just see if af comes in the next few days?

How are you doing Mlm?

I had a dream last night I had a baby and I was kneeling over her on the floor and I said "I really love you and I barely know you yet". I woke up happy and content (even though my alarm said it was 05.45).

 

[GI_Jane]

I really feel for Khloe khardashian. Can't be easy when both your sisters are either pregnant or have babies. Apparently she's been trying for 3 years. Just goes to show that even with all their money, and I bet she's seen a few fertility experts, she still can't get pregnant.

What a lovely dream! Last night I dreamt about my old workplace where someone I knew (who's 50ish, I called her dragon lady rather immaturely) had a baby! And it was the ugliest thing I've ever seen. Damn progesterone!
I live in Norfolk, we've had a shedload of snow today. Took the little man on his sledge for first time. Also had a mahoosive row with DH. A mixed day for sure.
Hope your eggie hurries up Jane, I know how frustrating long cycles are.
Bobster, I've been with DH for 12 years so can understand how hard TTC is and finding the moment. Get drunk? Hardly the healthy option but at least you can forget your hangups and get a bit reckless? It is tough, take a break if you need to and if it helps your relationship in the long run.

 

[MrsPhez]

AF came today 8-(. Took my temp this morning which was visibly lower and got that feeling.....so again a maximum 11 day LP, probably 10. Not happy. If I go to the doctor they will fob me off and ask me to wait another 2 miscarriages but perhaps if they are reasonable they will take Day 21 bloods from me next month to see what my prog levels are. Sorry, bit miffed today....at least it's not something that cant be easily resolved. I wonder if my cyst is involved in some way.....

 

[bobster]

Mrsphez sorry to read your last post. You are right its not unreasonable to expect day 21 tests if it will give you some reassurance. I don't know much about it but I thought an 11dpo day lp was still ok though. Maybe ask around on here. You may need progesterone supps next time. Sorry to heat you've rowed with oh. We bd'd yest but unsure if ovulating yet as its still a little early. Any updates from u Jane? X

 

[bobster]

Jane what a lovely dream. I hav a good feeling for you this cycle. If your cycle is a bit shorter it may mean you o within the week so keep testing! I was getting sick of seeing o all the time so when I got my smiley it made me soo happy to know I was actually ovulating again. I bought some more digi's today as only hav 3 left from old box. Just started testing yest. We managed to do it yest too but think I'm gunna wait now until I get my smiley. I managed to seduce him by sending him a kinky pic while he was at work so if u get stuck girls try that!

 

[mlm115]

Sorry mrs Phez : ( Hopefully your doc will help you with the tests you want done.

I'm on cd 8. Trying to be more relaxed, so have been on here a bit less to keep my obsession at bay. No opks for me this cycle, Ahhh!

Haha bobster, these men are suckers! Pleased it worked for you

No news for me...ive got a feeling I will see a smiley face this weekend but will keep testing everyday until I do! Looking forward to seeing it.

Sorry mrs phez. I don't know much about lp's. Do doctors in the uk do 21 day bloods? Have you got private medical insurance through work?

Are you having POAS withdrawal Mlm? I always resisted the opk's but now I think it might be my new obsession. I can totally understand trying to be more relaxed but even without opk's I'm still checking my cm everyday- just cant get away from TTC lately.

 

[bobster]

Oh good for you mlm! I hope you manage to stay more relaxed too. Maybe keep yourself as busy as possible and stay away from searching the internet. I think after next cycle I will stop opk's as they are so expensive!

I have ++++ ewcm today and left sided ovary pain but im only cd 14 and negative opk! what the heck is going on? Not due to ov for another 6 days. Hopefully opk will be positive tomorrow as I feel like i'm ovulating... weird as its never come this early before.

 

[bobster]

Well as predicted got my smiley today. Oh is out tonight and tomorrow night tho why is timing always so rubbbish! Bd'd yest but prob won't o until tomorrow or sat. Poo!

Yey for the smiley face, boo for OH being out. Can you jump him when he rolls in or is he completely away? You never know, yesterday might have been enough
