hey sparklesmile.

i've had a constant battle ova last 8 months trying to get rid of UTI. It kept going after anti-biotics and coming bk a few weeks later. So eventually the docs put me on the strongest anti-biotic they had for it (dnt kno why they didn't do that in 1st place and make me waste money on prescriptions). I feel loads better and it seems to have cleared up last month. But i wondering whether its affecting my result too coz i'm 3 days late for AF.

So yeh hunni, if you think you may have cystitis and keep gettin neg results even tho missed AF, then i think it may be beneficial for u also to test with docs and they may do bloods instead xxx

 

[Maybe baby]

i had a UTI months back...so painful hope u ladies get it sorted i would go get a blood test...will know either way then hun....xxx

Hi Everyone!

This is my first ever post & was hoping I could join in? Im 33 OH 34. TTC #1. Been kind of trying for over 3 yrs but making more of an effort now. Have had Lap & Dye test, etc all normal & OH SA is fine too. On cycle day 16 & first time Ive used OPKs (ebay cheapies) & I got a positive today!!! Anyone else at the same point in their cycle as me?

xxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Tinkermoo]

Hello Dee L, of course you can join in! Welcome to BNB Me and my OH have just got 'serious' after casually trying for a year. Good luck with your BFP!

 

[Dee L]

Hi Tinkermoo

Sorry for the delay.....I went off & had a shower! Good luck to you on your BFP also.

Do you do any charting etc or are you just leaving it to lady luck?

[Tinkermoo]

That's ok I don't chart my BBT or anything just when I'm due to be the most fertile and make sure we have alot of BD'ing in that time.

I think if I started charting I'd either get a bit obsessive or I'd forget one day and then the day after and it would get all out and I'd get annoyed with myself so I've decided not to do it! haha.

Are you charting then?

 

[Dee L]

God no! Lol!

I too think I would be obsessive with the temping. I did buy the ebay cheapy Ovulation sticks this month & I got my first +ve today. Its the ones where you get 2 lines but one has to be either equal or darker to be a positive. The past few days I convinced myself they looked like they were maybe the same colour but today it was definately darker so its not my imagination after all!

I never knew anything about charting, Cm etc til I looked it up online......amazing what you find out! I just that you had to BD & hope for the best, wasnt aware that our bodies gave out little signs! Lol

[Tinkermoo]

Yer I know! I didn't know anything until I started looking it all up online! I thought it would just happen straight away, my sis calls me up every week or so and asks if she's an auntie yet! When I told her it takes 6months - 1 year on average to conceive she was shocked!

Shows how much we got taught at school doesn't it!

 

[Dee L]

Yep it sure does, at school you were told that if you had unprotected sex you would get pregnant! You go through all these years using contraception then when you want a baby it just doesnt happen. Then you hear of these people that "Oh I just fell pregnant the first month of trying"

How far on in your cycle are you? This is day 16 for me I usually have 28-32 days just to complicate things!! Ha ha

xxxx

 

[Tinkermoo]

Oooo those women annoy me who say that! grrr to them! haha. One of my biggest pet hates about this whole TTC business is the lack of information I was given about it when I was younger! Ah well.

I have got 4 more days till the witch is due and the time is going sooooo slow! Trying to hold out til friday but reckon I'll cave on thurs! haha. You got much BDing in so far?

 

[Dee L]

Yeah they really annoy me too!! I agree! Grrrr!!

Oooh 4 days not long but in the waiting game it will seem like forever for you! Ive got my fingers crossed for you that she doesnt appear & you get your

I know what you mean about testing. You tell yourself I will just wait & then you just give in and pee on that stick! Oh & do you not think that you start noticing "signs" of pregnancy as well just to convince yourself into testing early! Grrrr to that too!

I BD'd this am 3hrs before I got my +ve OPK, will try again tomorrow but its got to the point where you dont want to do it just for the sake of it as it becomes less fun. Hopefully with the +ve OPk then I will have timed it right as it shows a +ve 12-48hrs before Ovulation.

Im away to dry my hair as got work in the morning....cant believe it is back to being Monday already! Been nice talking to you & will find out from you later in the week if its good news!

Take care
Dee

[Maybe baby]

hey ladies 6DPO i think who knows now with that random fluke +ive opk last on friday...am feeling optomistic for june and july...could be my time then xxx

 

[PetiteMoi]

Brit and NuKe - I will be the opposite to calm!! Will be testing every day probably, I'm the most impatient person ever. Lucky I have this cold in a way cos it makes me think about something else (although I'm still on here of course ) Don't be jealous girls, I'll be where you are in a few weeks wishing I were you (oh no sorry, PMA PMA PMA - I will be smiling and nurturing my growing tummy) xx

Maybe I still believe this might be your month, don't give up on hope! If not you'll def succeed over the next couple of months!! xx

 

[motomama]

Wow, I didn't get on at all this weekend and had SO MANY pages to catch up on! I'm sorry to hear about all of you girls who had a visit from the ! This will be our month!

And lots of ladies whose AF is missing! Fingers crossed for you!!

As for me, well, the is finally taking her leave. I feel like I'm back in the game, since she decided to skip the last cycle. Yay! Of course, now I'm throwing a monkey wrench into my quest for because I'm SO out of shape, I've decided I need to get in better shape for summer. So I've started exercising. I'm sure that'll throw my whole body out of whack but I figure it'll happen when it's meant to. We'll see how this month goes....I did get some opks from ebay, which I haven't used before, so maybe that will help?
