Team CD 80+

[chele]

yup am catching you up now! bizarre to think it was winter last time we had our periods? Why did you stop temping hun? - just got bored?

 

[drakey]

yeh lol, gets to a point where you give in lol. Im just letting it be now until i see the gyno, fingers crossed we get it sorted, i wanna be preg before the end of the yr! xxxxxx

 

[rabbit]

Drakey, is your OH going to gyno appt with you?, mine did and it really helped because he remembered all the things I'd been chewing his ear off about and all the things I wanted to ask, cos my mind went blank when I got in there

 

[rabbit]

Hmm, i'm getting a rather bizarre spasming kind of sensation in my belly.........

 

[drakey]

yeh my oh is coming with me, he said he will wait outside tho once i get seen too but i want him to come in with me really, ill tell him! lol

your spasaming is probs ur litle peanut getting tucked in lol xx

 

[twiggy56]

drakey u should definitely drag the OH in with you! lol. Just tell him it'l be 'educational'!! lol

rabbit- im having serious spasms as well...like brief periods of 'dullness' where the muscle feels like its stretching out! Better not be preparing for a 9 pound'er!! il pass out. EPIDURAL PLEEEEEEASE! xx

 

[stephx]

x

 

[rabbit]

Hello steph, welcome..... the more the merrier!

Where are you with ttc? have you seen the doc about your cycles? If so what did they say? Have you had any tests or anything/been diagnosed with anything? Do you temp?

All these questions...... how nosey am I!!!! well i'm doing it for all of us really cos the others will only ask you the same, and I thought seeing as i'm the first on after your post I'd fire them all at you

Twiggy- my spasming is like a butterfly fluttering in my belly for a few seconds at a time

Drakey- you need to make your OH go in with you, if you are nervous you aren't going to remember what they say...... he can remember for you!

x x x

 

[stephx]

Well weve been TTC for around a year, with not even a hint of a BFP Ive only recently started temping and doing OPKs which im rubbish at cause i forgot quite a lot! lol but heres a link

Ive not been to by docs or anything, mostly cause im only 18 and im scared he's going to laugh in my face for TTC so young and tell me to come back in a few years :/

x

 

[drakey]

hun, im young too and ive got a gyno appt on wednesday, i was suprised when i went coz i thought they would laugh in my face and turn me away but they have been really helpfull so far, just explain to them that even if you wasnt ttc you would still want your cycles sorting out because its not normal..... welcome to the team btw! xxxxx

 

[twiggy56]

hi steph! welcome to the team! sorry to hear about your cycles hun but we are masters of long cycles here, and i know that sum of the other girls have a wealth of knowledge on temping, charting etc. Me? Il help u with opk's lol. Dont worry about your age, you are within legal age to make this decision and if your situation is right...then you shouldnt have to feel guilty. There are hundreds of amazing young mums..and i cant wait to be one of them (well il be 21 wen bubs is born so still considered young). As Drakey has said...shes got her gyno and endo apps!

The fear of being 'infertile' is horrible...we ALL have it, especially in this section. So if having a few blood tests done or whatever can put your mind at rest then so be it!! But i just wana say hun...both rabbit and i have had long cycles, (rabbit got her bfp on cd113!!! and i got mine on cd93!) so just becuase you have long cycles doesnt always mean the worst...altho we do have to have the patience of a saint!!!!!

xxx

 

[drakey]

well said twiggy lol, we do have the patience of a saint lol, but i think the best thing you can do is go to doc and get some routine tests done, and if he refers you on then even better. they are only there to help! cant beleive im cd133, maybe i should test really? lol xxxx

 

[chele]

hi steph and welcome. A bit about me. I'm chele, have PCOS and just starting my journey through the UK health system.
This is my longest cycle ever. My first 6 cycles ttc were 28-34 days and this one is just coming to an end now I think. I went on BCP at 17 to control my weird cycles so for 11 years, my true problems were hidden.

Hope you get some answers soon and def start the process with ur doctors.

So a little update for you ladies...............

Ugh! I had cramps all day yesterday and then a strong one about 9=ish last night. Went to the toilet and it was a bit pink when i wiped. All cramping stopped at 10pm. Woke up at 7 for the toilet, temp still high - 36.65 and when I wiped it was a bit pink again, but there was a small red bit about the size of a 5p coin (sorry if tmi), I was half asleep so didnt analyse it too much. Then nothing else, but I put a pad on today. I've been to the toilet 3 times and each time there is nothing on the pad, but when I wipe it's orange/pinky staining on the toilet roll - so nothing gushing at this point. And still nothing on the pad.

So what's happening? Normally when AF starts I get cramp for 30 minutes before, not 4 days and flow starts straight away. It's been nearly24 hrs now of nothing. Feeling more relaxed today but still convinced I am pregnant, so am thinking the stress in my head is making AF delay slightly.

What do you think?

And if I am now not pg, why? We did it so much, there must be another problem!!! I can't take that either............

Will monitor overnight and do an hpt tomorrow if it doesnt' start properly

 

[rabbit]

You need to test again Chele, all sounds a bit curious! Implantation spotting?? x x x x

 

[twiggy56]

Rabbit i was just about to say the same thing...how many dpo are you now chele? duno if your FF chart is right or not? Unless tomorrow it develops into AF? But i reckon with the temps up and the spotting...you could well be preggo? Sometimes alot of women get spotting when their AF is 'meant to be'...just a little break-through bleeding and thats why alot of women dont think they're pregnant. Even throughout pregnancy alot of women still get periods!

id do a hpt as soon as you can...just so you can get an idea either way luv! xx

 

[rabbit]

Chele....... GET ON HERE........... you also said you are conviced you are preg....... twiggy was convinced even when BFN and look what happened........... x x

 

[stephx]

I agree TEST.. TEST.. TEST!!! x

 

[twiggy56]

EXACTLY rabbit....so true!! I just knew, was pretty damn convinced, it wasnt 'was i' going to get my bfp? but when was i going to get my bfp....11dpo, 12dpo, 14dpo? Go with your gut hun....

only thing to do is get that little pee stick and show it you mean business!!!!!!

xxx

 

[chele]

LOL, love you ladies!! I'm here!

Well have decided to see what is happening by tomorrow morning. See what temp is like and then test. Still got the same, cramps and pinkness, beginning to lose faith now.........

 

[rabbit]

Noooooo, dont be loosing faith! could be signs of either!

I dont mean to get your hopes up but from where i'm sat it does look kind of promising x x
