Stopping BCP to TTC***Updates & Progress/Noted Changes Since Stopping BCP***24BFPs***

[patienceiav]

Morning peeps!

I've given up testing, I checked yesterday mornings frer last night and saw a whisper on it, probably evap but I've had totally blank tests when I'm not pg, and the evenings ic still had a faint line not as good as the first but better than the later ones

I figure if nothing has improved in 3 days then it's probably either fake + (despite using these same ic for a year and never getting them) or another chemical, something I just can't get my head around ok I'm 10 or 11dpo but it should have improved! Had a tiny bit of pink cm and am just not feeling it today last night I was so sad I went to bed early just to escape thinking about it all the time considering calling a normal Dr but I don't think they'll help if ttc is the only reason I'm sad

 

[MrsHudson]

Aww patience . I know it's probably really hard to not be sad but keep your head up!

Danna how are you doing?

 

[patienceiav]

Charmed, any news?

 

[Charmed86]

No update I'm afraid I'm beginning to wonder if I just didn't ovulate at all. Took a digital test this am as that's all I had, bfn. No sign of AF arriving any time soon either. I was thinking about going to see my gp tomorrow, but they'd probably do a pregnancy test (urine) and then tell me to sit tight. I doubt they'll do any blood tests. Good old nhs. Guess I'll just have to wait for something to happen!

 

[Turtle0630]

Patience, hugs!!! I'm so sorry that it's looking like possibly another chemical for you this cycle. I guess the good news is a longer lp and no spotting yet, but I'm so sorry about the testing and the possible cp.

Charmed, that's so frustrating and so weird! to you too! I hope it gets figured out soon!

 

[patienceiav]

Man that sucks Charmed 2ww is awful enough without having to go through it twice only to not have ovulated ! Have you checked for any signs of fertility lately ? If you haven't o'ed it should still be trying ?

I guess it's time for me to give in, 12/13dpo and nothing it's making the conscious choice to stop the gel or not, i don't know if i should stop prematurely or keep going till 14dpo to see if it somehow helps my internal clock to try and do that normally ? Am home sick today at least so I don't have to face the world

 

[Charmed86]

I'm really sorry patience I'm glad you get to hide away at home though, sometimes it's nice to be away from people! Hugs xx

I've taken off my discarded ticks on FF & instead of taking ovulation away, it's put me at 23dpo. Argh. I've not really had any ewcm this cycle & bfns all round, so I really don't think I could be 23dpo! Or even 15dpo. I don't know what to think. DH & I will keep BDing in case O hits soon! What a frustrating cycle!

 

[patienceiav]

It's fascinating that it didn't remove crosshairs totally though ! Man it must be confusing, try opks again maybe ? It could be worth talking to the dr and just seeing if they could give you an opinion at least, maybe they'll say if nothing happens in X days to come back or something

I've decided the only thing I should do is continue on to 14dpo which is sunday, and if no bfp and no af by monday i'll call my dr and ask for her opinion, get ready for being told off for using the progesterone a month early she told me AF would come whether i was using the gel or not, so she should have an idea what to do if it hasn't ! (the exact prescription is labelled as a LP extender though)

No more moping about a chemical and trying not to hold out secretive hope that i'm just a late bloomer, sit back and enjoy the weekend

 

[DannaD]

I think taking the prescription till 14 dpo is the best bet Patience, and I'm still hoping for you!

Charmed it does look annovulatory, I'm sure you're body will try again soo thoug, I know how frustrating this is!

I'm doing ok MrsHudson, doc appointement is in 2 weeks and I stopped hoping anything would halpen before then. I'm so anxious/curious to know what she'll do... How are you?

 

[MrsHudson]

Sorry Patience and Charmed. I'm sure you're both so frustrated.

Danna I'm really curious as to what she'll think and do for you. I just hope you all can get it figured out soon.

I'm doing good. Finally got a handle of the MS but each day is different. I'm 11 weeks already. Seems like its flown by.

 

[Charmed86]

I'm just starting to get concerned, I had this problem before because of PCOS.. I'm really hoping that my hormones haven't completely screwed up again. I couldn't get in with my GP today so will have to try on Monday now, not that they're likely to do anything other than tell me to wait it out. Good old NHS I took an OPK to see whether that could clear things up, nope.. Negative. There was a line, but negative for an OPK. I don't normally take them during the LP though so I'm not sure if that's normal for me, or if my body wants to O soon? I've got ridiculous amounts of creamy CM & a high CP. I'm feeling really down about the chemical pregnancy today, I should be 11wks now. How depressing is that?

 

[MrsHudson]

Aww Charmed I'm so sorry! That made me tear up
I hope it all works out for you soon.

 

[patienceiav]

I've done it plenty of times Charmed, I could babble about that but i'll just say I know how it feels only you can decide how to let it affect you

I say if you want to get it checked out, be determined, don't let them shove you off by waiting ! Fib if you want, tell them you've not had AF for 2months or something and make them listen !

 

[Turtle0630]

Patience, I agree that taking it until 14dpo is probably the best plan. And then hopefully AF starts and you won't have to call you Dr and confess that you started it a month early! Well of course I hope for you that AF doesn't start and that you get your bfp instead, but you know what I mean.

Danna, sorry that AF STILL hasn't started and that you're having to go to the Dr. But I'm glad that the appointment is almost here and that you can hopefully get some answers soon! Yay for that!

Charmed, I'm so sorry. I hope the Dr is able to give you some answers next week too!

Charlie, how are you doing?

 

[patienceiav]

thanks, I don't feel preggers any more and I just expect a temp drop tomorrow, but I'm poorly so may affect it! Bed time now maybe I'll know more tomorrow

Are you on the new meds now Charlie? What sorta schedule do you have for the next week or 2 that we can look forward to?

 

[DannaD]

And... I'm spotting again. What the heck is my body doing....

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

Well ladies, I got a call from my Dr yesterday (on my birthday) to tell me that after further review both MY tubes look normal!! Which is great news!!
I have already started the new medication, I should O anytime between now and next week. I'll be making DH BD like crazy. Poor man. Lol. Since his SA came back so good I think I'm going to try to get several days in a row in on BD. I have a faint line on the opks but no where near positive yet.

Patience I'm sorry that there seems like no such luck on a BFP. but at least your LP has gotten longer! That's a great sign that the gel is doing its job!!

Charmed I'm sending you lots of love!!

Turtle how are you doing?

Danna? How are you?

And how are all our Preggo ladies?! ❤

 

[Ms Elizabeth]

Charlie.....what a great gift!!! Happy b day too!!

Other ladies....positive and happy thoughts headed your way! I've been lurking. Hang in there!

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

Thank you Ms E!

 

[Charmed86]

Just a super quick update, thank you all for your kind words & thoughts *hugs* I was playing around with FF this morning & took out my +opks.. FF took away my crosshairs, so that's the only reason they're there. I've handed my notice in at work as they couldn't get the pay sorted, but that's ok.. I'm going back to my pet care business.. which means lots of walking & cycling again, plus lots of time to focus on TTC. Whenever I was at work, I couldn't do opks, it was difficult to get reliable temps and I'd be so tired at the end of the day that I wouldn't want to BD.

I hope everyone else is ok this am, Patience, how are you doing? xx
