Hey Sorry I haven't a clue about the blood tests...hopefully one of the ladies will know

Temp was yesterday...back down to 36.8 this morning. Used the last of the 2 tests this am and bfn again. Will deffo wait for af now xx

 

[fuschia]

Sorry Carly I hope that changes for you. If not - then maybe next cycle will be lucky xx

Is everything else ok? I hope it's not getting you down too much? I'm in quite a good place at the mo... Feel like I've come out the other side from when I was getting so low but I feel for you . Xxxx

 

[laurac1988]

Emma I was told the start is cycle test should be within days 2-6, but maybe best to check with your doc?

If I don't want to miss the month, I need to start clomid tomorrow. I'm hoping the Dr can call me and prescribe over the phone, then I'll have it in time to start tomorrow evening. But I'm doubtful. It may just have to wait until next cycle

 

[Tmb0047]

Laura - When I did clomid, my options were cd3-7 or cd5-9. So if you can sneak in with your doctor before Friday then you should be okay Good luck!

Emma - Don't you have a walk in lab over there? Any time I need bloodwork done, we just pop in with our requisition forms between 8am and 12pm Monday to Friday. What a pain it must be trying to book specific dates! I'm sure cd6 is fine.....but Laura's right, maybe ring the doc to ask.

Carly - Sorry about the bfn. Your timing was decent this cycle....hopefully next cycle you can get donation timed for the day before O. Your O always seems to take it's sweet time after you get your donation.

 

[MolGold]

Hey girls!

Tmb, wow 18 weeks already! Yay for team yellow

Shaz, how are you doing?

Emma, sorry you O'ed during your vacay.. but I am glad acupuncture is working great are you temping this cycle?

Carly, aw sorry for that BFN honey test again! Oops, I guess I just need my POAS fix from you ladies

Laura, sorry that you haven't got clomid yet. Even I tried it, from cd 6-10. Let us know how that went. I loved you vacation pics glad you had a good time!

Wanting - hey welcome back. Where are you in your cycle?

Desi - how are things going? hope you are doing well

Barbie - I am guessing your lil princess must be home now Show us a pic and post about her!!

AFM, I got ill again, 2nd time in 3 weeks. I guess that's my 1st tri symptom - low immunity to flu. Anywho, I worked Saturday and doubly hard this week to compensate. I guess I should be thankful for no MS, or I wouldn't be able to hold up at work. I was away awhile bcos of it, hope to be able to check in sooner now!

Also, I booked my NT scan for 1st nov at a real good clinic where it is tough to get in at all I will be just shy of 12 weeks then. I plan to tell my extended family and close friends then. And maybe work, if it continues to be hectic.

 

[wantingagirl]

Afm: nowt to report ... bought asda test today (bad me) and deffo bfn Grrr wish I hadn't tested - on a downer now lol xx

Carly sorry for the bfn, whats happening today?

cd13 and got a nearly positive opk whereas last month 50 days will post pic.

Hey Laura! How long into your cycle have u got till u can't start it this time?

Girls I have my blood test meant for cd 1-4 on wed (cd6) do I still go for it?

I was so sure I would have the test timed perfectly this time but my cycle was shorter which I'm happy about but these tests are taking forever to sort! Then I need to guess when I'll ov which could be cd 15 or could be as late as 20 again lol.

I've booked acupuncture for thurs- if it's having a pos effect then I will keep at it!

I think it is up to cd6 but I would double check been so long since I had bloods done.

Hey girls!

Tmb, wow 18 weeks already! Yay for team yellow

[shazney22]

I lost this group somehow am I still ok on here? Is anyone still ttc? xx

hey welcome sure ur still welcome on here, me and OH are still ttc a year this month but may have to look at other options due to OH sperm analysis being zilch. psychic readings are the only thing keeping me going. I didnt know you were on this group. you ttc ur fifth?

I think I was unless Im thinking of a different group but Im sure of it Carly's name popped up when I was on here today I will need to look back. Im trying to get on here more than I used to as I never had the time to but I think its making the effort when the girls are napping. Yes ttc my fifth and unfortunately my last but I think I guess enough is enough. I had loads of problems after my youngest birth I was bleeding every day constant up until last cycle so Ive just finished my first what I can actually define and recognise as my period. I only bled one day at cd15 cycle that just passed it was a long one 50 days!

So sorry bout the analysis can anything be tried at home like vitamins etc to improve the result?

no idea if there are vitamins he takes a conception tablet every day for months doesnt seem to be much use

 

[shazney22]

hey MolGold Im fine dreamt my AF was coming on a few days ago am due on thurs but gonna wait it out, then last night I dreamt I had a positive pregnancy test so confused but says on dreams that means a new change so hopefully a new home would be good lol

how are you? aww not long till ur 12 week scan am desperate to be preggers as my mum never went to the scan with my DD lol
For some reason I just feel it would be nice for my mum to go to one scan instead of my OH haha I can daydream, could always book a private 3d scan with him or mum lol
hope your doing well xx

 

[fuschia]

Hi ladies ! Thanks for your opinions on my blood test.

TMb it would be great to be able to come along any time and get a blood test but it doesn't work like that it's appointment only and the nurse appointments are booked weeks in advance . One man today was asked by nurse to book a second appointment for a weeks time and soonest he could get is 2 weeks today!

I need to book cd 22 test too. Might try 23 or 24 to be on safe side in case it's not cd 15 after all!

Hope u all ok.

Carly any more testing?

Wanting- fingers crossed for ov soon !
Shazney - interesting dreams! I hope they mean something exiting !

Laura- hope that u are having more luck with doctors x

Mol- hope u are feeling better x

 

[carlywarly]

Ooh excellent wantingagirl!! Go for it n fx for a bfp! Deffo a more normal cycle for you it looks like! Great stuff

Shaz! Fx you get that bfp

Emma, good luck with the tests! also good luck getting your bfp this cycle too Nope no more testing gor me - waiting it out x

 

[carlywarly]

Af arrived this morning Hope everyone is ok! X

 

[fuschia]

Hi Carly - sorry about af. But u know where u stand now and can move on to next cycle
Are you ok ?

I had accupuncture yesterday for 2nd time-would you consider trying anything like that? I was listening to a cd by zita west about relaxing and visualisation called getting pregnant naturally - maybe something like that would be beneficial ? I think I might buy it for myself and it's quite relaxing and I figure that's gotta help! I realised just how in relaxed I probably am ! When I conceived dd I was a lot more relaxed as a person and laid back- prob cos I didn't have the worries of raising a child correctly on my mind!

I don't mean to be annoying but just in case u feel like you want to try something diff xxx

 

[carlywarly]

Thanks hun I'm not going to try next cycle and in fact I am going to look for another donor instead. I wasn't laid back when ttc Isaac either - I was stressed and neurotic. Also symptom spotted like crazy lol. I'm going to start b6 I think - lp is only 11-12 days so if I can make it longer I will. It used to be 13-14.

Hope the acupuncture works for you hun, and the cd! xx

Ps...you're not annoying lol

 

[laurac1988]

Sorry Carly!

Emma I'm thinking of trying one of those CDs. Hoping it will help me relax about most things as generally I'm a pretty wound up person. Going to be fertility show next weekend and apparently Zita West is there so hopefully some of her products will be too

 

[shazney22]

Sorry Carly, AF is due on for me today or up to Monday or Wednesday at latest, if it doesn't come on Monday am gonna have to test as ave a night out.

Who is zita west? Where can you get the CDs? This sounds very beneficial

How are you laura and Emma?

Tmb - how are you feeling?

Barbie girl - hope to hear from you soon

And all the other ladies please keep us updated hope yous are all ok xxx

 

[MolGold]

Hey girls!

Shaz, hun I truly believe your BFP dream will come true

Emma, I really do think that the month we BD'ed twice only, and were busy with FIL was the BFP month. So it isn't the stress, its the TTCing stress that needs to be alleviated.

Laura, you don't come across as anything but a positive person with a great sense of humor How are you?

Carly sorry for AF she sucks!

Desi, how are you doing? happi Diwali!

Yes I agree we are all waiting to hear from Barbie But I am sure she must be settling in

Tmb how are you?

AFM nothing new to report - except I am having to come to work after cancelling a pre applied leave, when Ive got cold / backaches and its the festive season(Diwali) and no ones at work except the pregnant person who needs a break! *rant over*

That aside, everything at home seems to be picking up finally after FILs illness. I'd say uneventful is good!

 

[fuschia]

Morning ladies!

Zits west is a lady who is a fertility specialist I believe. She does acupuncture and nutrition . My acupuncturist is affiliated to her- I think there is a special course to complete . The CDs are available on Amazon I think but you can also download from I tunes.

I have taken a couple of temps so far as I would like to know when I ov this cycle but also got the opks going so nothing to report yet but shall see if I ov early or not! I have a stinking cold so not sure how that would affect things.

How are you all anyway?

Carly- have u been hunting for another donor?

Xx

 

[MolGold]

Hey ladies,

where are you all? The thread seems so slow. Hope lifes is treating everyone great!

I have been feeling dead tired and have had a late bout of nausea this week!Nausea hitting at 11.5 weeks is really unheard of, apparently. Anyway, some days its better and I am hoping week 13 will bring relief.

Also, I cant wait for my NT scan on Saturday. I will put up pics for you ladies once I am back from the clinic.

XX

 

[Tmb0047]

Hi ladies :wave:

It's been quiet in here....guess everyone is still in the boring part of their cycle.

Fuschia - Looks like you're about ready to O. Have you and DH been getting your BD on :wink:

Carly - How is new donor search going? If you find one on time will you give it a go this cycle? I think trying out some new swimmers is a good idea!

Laura - How about you? How's things? How is your cycle panning out thus far? Been reading your journal/blog to keep somewhat up to date

Shazney - Where are you at? If I recall correctly, you had a test date set....did AF stay away?

Desi and Molgold - How are things progressing with you?

Barbie - Still awaiting your update!

Afm - Scan today! 3pm my time. I will update late tonight or some time tomorrow
