Jane when do u get blood results?

Results from bloods taken after ovulation (day 29) showed that I am ovulating Waiting to hear about my day2 results. Some bloods are being repeated as they may be a problem with my red blood cells. DH took his sample in yesterday.
I guess if all comes back good we won't need any metformin or a referral to specialist and just have to keep trying in the hope that the good tube picks up the egg.

How is pregnancy going bobster? Are you fully in to maternity clothes now? How long do you think you'll have off? Anymore name choices?

 

[bobster]

An that's good Jane. hope your repeat test is all ok. fingers crossed for the day 2 tests then. I'm sure given your track history of getting pregnant there won't be need for drugs. Did they say the left side would compensate and release more eggs or does it still alternate each month? It's a shame you can't get a scan each cycle to tell you which side you ovulate from. I bet rich folk would do that. Did you ask if there's any way to tell which side you ovulate from?

I'm still in my size 10 & 12 jeans but they are feeling tight. I have a bump now so I have to pull them down quite low to wear them comfortably. Need to invest in some maternity ones as haven't kept much from last time.

I'm thinking he will be called Harrison James but we'll probably call him Harry

Like the name choice bobster when is your 20 week scan?

How was your NYC weekend mackjess?

How's it going Mlm? Did you speak with DH?

We will be getting all our results this week and discuss next steps

 

[mackjess]

Well I think today is DP0, so that means I start the 2WW tomorrow. Eek.

Our trip to NY was great. I have shin splits though from all the walking even though I was wearing good shoes.

Jane, very good news with your blood work. I'm sure DH tests will go well too. Will you be having an O date soon? Or waiting on AF.

MLM, dh and I had similar issues. We both work but I ended up doing like 99% of everything. So frustrating. I finally just broke it down as I was exhausted and needed help. Still annoying bc I have to ask every 5 mins if I need something. I don't think guys, or my guy anyway, are wired to think about what needs to be done.

Bobster, how are you feeling?

 

[GI_Jane]

Keeping my fingers crossed for you mackjess

Not due to ovulate for another week. Hoping for a Xmas BFP for us both.

 

[mackjess]

A Christmas BFP would be amazing Jane. FX for you.

Bobster, I totally missed the name!! Love it.

 

[bobster]

Fingers crossed for a bfp in 2 weeks mack.
Good luck for catching O soon Jane.
Mlm did you decide to chat with his hubby? Hope you are feeling better and getting a bit more help with the girls

 

[GI_Jane]

Is your house move set for January bobster?

Happy pre thanksgiving mackjess and mlm. Enjoy your family time.

 

[mackjess]

so i'm DPO3 now, and super gassy. Yayyyy for that in time for holidays.

Let's hope there's a good reason for it.

Happy thanksgiving MLM!! Hope you have a good weekend on the other side of the pond Bobster and Jane.

 

[mlm115]

Yes, I did talk to my hubby. Thanks for all the advice and encouragement ladies! Just venting my frustration made me feel 100 times better.

Happy thanksgiving to you too Mack! I'm hosting this year and making my first turkey,ahh!

I hope you both get Christmas Bfps, that would be so fabulous!

Bobster, do we get any belly pics yet??

 

[bobster]

So glad you are feeling better mlm. I think talking about how you feel honestly can save so much confusion and conflict in the future. If I'd only told OH how I was feeling recently we'd not have argued the way we did anyway.

Really hoping for some Christmas/new year BFP news on this thread!

I will try to send a bump pic tomorrow if I can figure it out from my iPhone... I've not really been taking them this time as keep forgetting!

 

[GI_Jane]

I hope the turkey cooking and hosting went well Mlm and mackjess, not too stressful!

Are you an early tester Mack? When will you try and hold out until?

All results for DH and me have come back good. There was an issue with my bloods but the repeat shows it's on the mend and nothing to be concerned about. GP is now referring us and she thinks they'll want to check my remaining tube is open using a dye and may give me clomid.
But in the mean time she has given me metformin to try. Feeling very positive

 

[mlm115]

That's great news Jane! Congrats on the good test results, I'm sure that is a relief for you : )

 

[mackjess]

How was your thanksgiving mlm? We do ours on sat so I'm cooking today. Brisket and ham. Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday at the inlaws was fun and Finn was super cute and charmed the grandparents a lot. Hope you have fun memories with both girls.

Jane, that is so wonderful!! I wish I could get metformin but I'm only borderline on my tests. Continuing with my eating well and exercise. I've lost 9lbs which makes me 9lbs away from pre prego weight. I am an early tester, but my online cheapies don't arrive til tomorrow. Feeling out but still hopeful we will both get xmas bfps.

Yes bobster we need a bump photo!!! 😚

 

[mlm115]

My thanksgiving was really nice. The turkey tuned out perfectly and everyone helped out a ton by bringing a lot of the sides. Norah is such an entertainer now too. She loves dancing and doing her "tricks" when we have people over, lol. Audrey slept most of the time, but was happy the time she was awake. Your dinner sounds awesome, I'd actually much prefer ham and brisket over turkey. Have fun today!

 

[bobster]

Yay sounds good. Happy thanksgiving

Jane that's brilliant news about your test results. Fingers crossed the metforim helps too. Your gp sounds good.

I've been having super stretchy uncomfortable pains all day. I was in the supermarket and felt the urge to sit down. Not sure if just coming down with something as slightly achy everywhere right now.
Mack good luck for testing. How many dpo will you be?

Mlm Audrey sounds so cute

 

[GI_Jane]

Drink plenty of water bobster and mention to your midwife. Is your 20 week scan soon?

 

[mackjess]

Ugh, tested today but not with FMU and it was negative. I don't have any symptoms though. I will test with FMU tomorrow which will be DPO8, but I still think it will be negative.

 

[GI_Jane]

Keeping my fingers crossed for you mackjess.

Think I ovulated over the weekend but we only dtd once. Hope it was enough!
