Luteal Phase Defect

[xxshellsxx]

Sorry to hear you got some not so good news, but pleased they are going to do something about it for you

Please do share what info you get, it all helps x

My bleeding has stopped (for now lol) so i guess we'll see what happens between now and my temp tomorrow morning - but i've become a toilet hobbit checking far too often to see whats going on lol x

Hi girlies

Shells, that's very strange. I am not clued up with temps but I assumed that when AF is about to arrive your temps start dipping?? I really, really hope this is it for you hon. The bit f blood that you saw could be implantation bleeding. I'll have everything crossed hon.

Stacer, I'm not sure what to say hon. I'm really sorry that you have been diagnosed with endo and possibly PCOS.....BUT......both can be fixed and that's the main thing. It sucks that you have to have surgery but I think it's really minor and over very quickly so please don't worry. At least they know what may be the problem and the sooner it's fixed, the sooner you can have your baby in your arms.
Also, good news that the FS actually mentioned LPD. At least none of us are chatting out of our ar*es

As for me girls, just waiting for AF to arrive. Don't even know what DPO I am

Xxxx

Thanks ladies! It's so nice to be able to talk to others who understand that ttc is not always that easy! I'm staying positive-thankfully dh was there and everything I bring up the negative he reminds me of the positive!!

Shells-sounds like you'll know for sure in a few days based on your lp! Really really hoping this is it!!!

Spock-I guess you're taking it kinda easy, good for you!!

 

[xxshellsxx]

... and i'm out, temp plummeted and AF is definitely here now 23 day cycle LP was only 10 maybe 11 as having the flu at O time i don't know if it was CD12 or CD13.

Stacergirl, TTC is not easy at all especially when every other person seems to be pregnant at the moment. It's amazing but I never noticed so many pregnant women before I know it's hard but pleeeeeease think positively. Everything can be fixed and it will be

Shells
Really sorry hon. Xxx But 10 days isn't so bad. When I spoke to a Gyno a while ago he told me that from Ov to Implantation it only takes about 6 days which is why they sometimes dismiss the LPD. I'm not sure i believe him........

Still waiting for AF to arrive.......xxxx

 

[stacergirl]

Sorry shellz! But I agree that 10-11 is not bad! Good luck this cycle! Any new plans?

Spock-thanks! I'm actually doing ok, had a minor break down the day of and dh couldn't understand why but it's just frustrating I guess. However so happy to know there's definitely hope for us to have a baby this time next year! That would be amazing since I'm in the mindset as it will never happen!! I have follow up in march so I'll let you ladies know. Plan this month is to just take it easy I guess-not sure I'll even use OPKs bc fs says the sperm and egg could be going to the emdometriosis site so it's hard to get pregnant (dh says his sperm are being ambushed! Lol). Have you heard of anyone get pregnant naturally with endo? Or did they have to do the lap? Fs said we might not need the IUi after lap though which would be great!!

Spock when is Af to arrive? How are you holding up? Keeping fingers crossed she doesn't come!

Stacer

I'm sorry you had a bit of a moment hon and to be honest, I don't blame you for feeling like that. But remember it can be fixed, it will be fixed and you will get that baby.
I have heard of ladies who have gotten pregnant with mild endo and I've also heard that after the Lap it kind of clears everything out and makes conceiving much easier.....So the sooner you have the lap and remove that endo, the sooner you can get busy honey

As for me, I'm still waiting for AF. I kinda spotted today so I know it's on the way. I ALWAYS know when AF is coming because I get no 'out of the ordinary' symptoms. In fact I don't get any symptoms apart from bad moods and a bit of an ache during Ov. That is it. No sore boobs, no headaches, no spots....Zilcho!! I'm waiting to get something weird like unusual discharge, pain down below, just something to tell me that maaaaaaybe I could be pregnant....

Oh well.....onwards and upwards

Xxxxx

 

[Spockette]

The arrived on time this morning!!

Onto March.....

 

[stacergirl]

Awe sorry spock! What a bummer!!! Hoping next months the month!!!

 

[Spockette]

Thanks hon. Hope you're ok and feeling more positive xxxx

Hi ladies how are you all?

I've been ill with the flu so didn't start the b complex plus i totally missed my fertile time so i know im out already this month wish af was here already then we can get on with ttc.

 

[stacergirl]

Awe sorry to hear you had flu lmm! Imactially sick myself, so just been taking it easy, no bding and don't even know what cd im on!! How many more days until Af comes?

I'm feeling pretty positive about everything. Actually Moved my next appt up a few days so I can hopefully get the lap scheduled sooner than later. I had a nice talk with a girl from who who had endo along eith cysts and I believe polyps. She had the lap and then they did a d&c to clean her out even though she wasn't pregnant. Her and her dh had been trying for 5 years and on their 7th IUi finally got pg. it was a great story and gives me hope not just for me, but for all of us!! The doc suggested ivf after her 6th IUi but her dh said to give it one last shot at IUi and it worked!! I didn't tell her my situation as we want to keep it private.

 

[lmm100]

Stacergirl glad your feeling positive its always good to speak to people who have been in similar situations gives hope doesn't it.

Well im not really sure when i o'd so im thinking my af is due in about 10days but i know im out so i can relax and just wait for the spotting to arrive sometime next wk.

 

[Spockette]

Hello my fellow BnB posse,

Sorry to hear you've been I'll Imm. That's shitty but at least you can get busy next month. I have been taking B6 this whole cycle and have no idea if it increased my LP because I wasn't keeping track but I have noticed less spotting. I only spotted for a day which is great. Hope it's the same for you. Good luck

Stacer, really pleased you're feeling positive and really glad you've changed the date. Sooner, the better. It always helps speaking to others who are going through similar.

Shells, I hope you're ok hon?

As for me, just waiting for AF to finish and carry on. However, after discussing with hubby I am definitely going to a Private Clinic at the end of March if nothing happens next month...xxx

 

[xxshellsxx]

Hey girls, hope your all ok and getting better from the Flu - i had it 2 weeks ago and can sympathise x

I'm still with AF 7 days on... It's not heavy now but it's still 'there'! I have one like this maybe every 8 months or so, i bleed the entire month on and off and the cycle lasts longer... or 2 merge into one i'm not sure!

I've bought opks but i 'think' these odd cycles are anovulatory i've never charted one (i was on my reluctant break during the last one and wasn't temping)

So this could be interesting! x

 

[Spockette]

Shells, I'm not sure if I should say this but i will. Are you certain you didn't have a chemical? I mean, you did have a faint positive didn't you?
I hope I haven't offended you by asking that.....

Xx

 

[xxshellsxx]

No you haven't offended hun xx I really don't think i did, i think they were evaps as i only got that one very early line, and then nothing after it, so a fluky test i think xx

although... my temps didn't play ball... they are still higher than my usual Pre O temps and i did test during AF just in case lol x

 

[Spockette]

I really hope it wasn't Shells. We can only hope that its our month next month. I'm giving it this month then off to see a Fert. Specialist.

Good luck to all of us

 

[stacergirl]

How's everyone doing?? Anything to report? Hope everything is going well!

My next doc appt is less than a week away now! Woo hoo!! Can't wait to get it over and get moving again!

 

[xxshellsxx]

Hey stacergirl - That's soon come round hasn't it Good luck!!

I'm doing ok this cycle... got myself some steady temps going on... i'm liking that after last cycles guessing game with the flu lol

I'm 4DPO again already lol short cycles have an advantage sometimes, but i'd happily give them up for longer ones if means i finally get a snuggly bean lol x

Where are you at with your next cycle? x
