long cycles support thread :) the yelping vaginas club! (closed group)

[rmsh1]

NewMrs, we here in this thread know all too well how tortuous long cycles are, I hope you gain some hope from those of us that have succeeded. My cycles never got regular before my BFP, it can still happen I'm sorry your doc appointment did not go as planned. I was very frustrated with my doctor when they discovered I had elevated prolactin, which can cause late ovulation, and prevent ovulation completely, yet they would not refer me to an endo. I had given up on my docs here, and was going to wait til my return to NZ and ask for a referral then

Caroline, I too thought of you soooo much today. I am praying your scan on the 8th shows a stronger heartbeat, and a healthy bean

 

[NewMrs2011]

Thanks Ladies, everyone is so lovely and understanding on here and your right, seeing BFPs in this thread definitely does help. I just feel for me personally I'm currently stood at the bottom of a very high mountain!

I'm just chillin in front of the TV - I'm away to watch the first episode of X Factor USA cos I'm a bit of an X Factor geek

We have all felt so helpless in this thread at one time of another. We just try to cheer each other on and be a listening ear. For a brief uplift, I even bought myself two pyschic TCC readings! Just hearing a psychic say it would happen, gave me some hope.

Big You just gotta keep plodding on trying. My cycle before my BFP was anovulatory, I was so depressed, my cycles just went from bad to worse. I hope today you feel a bit better

Oh I'm going for a psychic reading on Monday, I seen one before and she told me I would have a baby but we would need assistance conceiving but everything else she told me was complete rubbish so I wasn't sure what to think. This one I'm seeing on Monday is supposed to be very good so it'll be interesting to see what she has to say.

I do feel better today, thank you I'll spare you the details but I'm having a CRAZY AF so far but I'm trying to tell myself it's a good thing as it will give me a good 'clear out'. Fingers crossed anyway

It sounds like you really didn't have it easy either when ttc, you must just feel on top of the world now. I can't imagine what it must feel like but hopefully I'll find out at some point.

My psychic readings were great. The first was way off, but the second, from a different psychic, was almost accurate. She said I would have an August conception (it was end of June/beginning of July) and I would have a baby in April (that part could still be true). At the time I got the reading, I had just had my anovulatory cycle. She said for some reason my month had been mistrustful and that I felt let down in some way (stupid body!). She also said we will have a girl (yet to find that out) and a bit about her. At the time, it was just nice to hear something positive

The only right part about the first reading I got, was she said she could see doctors around me, and appointments, but that I would have a natural conception

newmrs-I am glad to hear you are feeling better today! We are all here for you so whenever you are having a bad day vent away. This thread has always had amazing ladies in it that have been here to support each other.

I hope that this proper AF you are having helps your body to reset and ovulate

 

[seabean]

RMSH - the little quote in your ticker is too cute! BTW - are you showing yet at all?

Ugh, I hate AF...sorry you have to endure this. Don't men have it easy? Did your Dr mention taking an iron supplement to you? With a heavy AF, sometimes it can be a good idea

 

[rmsh1]

No I have no bump yet Still waiting for it to show. I think it might be on its way, but definitely not noticable at this stage

No the dr never mentioned an iron supplement. TBH I got the impression she wasn't even aware I would get AF after taking the Norethisterone because she seemed surprised when i told her I was bleeding again. I may be wrong, I didn't like to question her though.

I'm quite shocked just how much blood there is (tmi sorry) but it's quite scary really. It has been quite a while since I had proper AF though so I guess that's why. Not pleasant though when it's this bad. I'm supposed to be doing a 140 mile round trip to collect a relative from the airport tomorrow but if this keeps up there's no way I'm going to manage.

And you're right, men do have it easy! My DH did say tonight that he would bleed for me if he could....he's so romantic

 

[NewMrs2011]

omg I actually feel like I'm going to bleed to death. It's just constant, but according to google this is quite common after taking norethisterone/progesterone? I hope it's right and there's not something wrong with me.

 

[seabean]

If you are really worried I would go to the Dr. Maybe it just seems heavy relative to your previous spotting? How many tampons/pads have you gone through in a day? Not to get personal, just trying to help you gauge how bad it might be

Well I was using the super absorbent pads and I was having to change at least every hour. I was up three times through the night and had to change my pants twice. While it's still heavy today, it doesn't seem to be quite as heavy as it was yesterday so hopefully the worst is over now. It's just really scary seeing so much but I think your right, because I've been used to the spotting for so long it's just a bit of a shock to see.

 

[seabean]

It sounds heavy - if it's slowing down, then I would take that as a good sign. If it's still this heavy a few days from now, I would see your Dr.

 

[bnporter81]

Hi girls, so sorry I haven't been around. Today has been 2 weeks since I started using the NPC so I guess we'll see what happens with it.

Caroline, I am so so sorry to hear about your US. I know it's so heartbreaking and I hope and pray it turns around for you and that your little bean is okayI've had a miscarriage before and I know it's so hard, I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Try to hang in there, hon and have faith. I'll be praying for you and DH.

Rachel, when is your US? Can't wait to see a pic of your little bean

NewMrs, That heavy bleeding must be so hard...I know when I go for a few months without AF then I usually have to wear a tampon and pad at the same time for the first couple of daysOtherwise I'd soak a pad within a couple of hours. Your system is probably just getting thoroughly cleaned out, but if it stays that heavy or gets heavier, you should probably call the doc. and checkAlso if you put a couple spoonfuls of cinnamon in a cup of hot water and drink it a few times a day it will help with the heaviness of it. It's kind of nasty and gritty, but it's helped me out with heavy AFs since I was a teen

Raven, did AF show for you yet? How many DPO are you?

Well, girls, there's so much to catch up on, but I hope you all are doing well and know that I'm always thinking of you I've decided to take my chart off for now because it's just too depressing to look at it and have it be a constant reminder of my lousy, non-cooperating body every time I get on here

Hope everyone has a good weekend

 

[NewMrs2011]

Thanks Ladies it's definitely slowed down throughout the course of the day so I'm a lot happier now. I think I just need to learn not to panic so much - sorry!

Seabean, forgive me for not asking sooner, but how are things with you? Do you think o is near?

bnp, it's good to see you back here. I'm not quite sure what NPC is (sorry) but I hope you see an improvement with things soon

 

[seabean]

Bethany, so glad to see you back on here! I hope your progesterone cream does the trick!

Is AF any lighter for you now NewMrs? I hope so!

I hope I ovulate tomorrow - I had a huge temp drop this AM, which I've gotten the day before O the past 2 cycles, plenty of EWCM, and I'll take my one last OPK tonight to make sure. There will be plenty of BD-ing tonight and for the next few days!

 

[mrsc81]

Dee - Hope this is ovulation and you get your bfp this cycle

 

[mrsc81]

Caroline - i hope things are working out with you and your bean, ive been thinking about you alot

 

[Rachel789]

Dee-It does look like you will O any day now, how exciting! Good luck in this TWW, I hope you catch the egg

Bethany-It is good to hear from you! Any luck yet with getting into the dr? Have you decided whether you will switch drs or not? My next scan is on Thursday, I am excited but also nervous!
