Hey girls im new here, can i join you?
My and DH have been TTC for about a year and my cycles are usually 80 + (im on CD 20 now but my last one was 118 days)
Im so glad ive found this thread as i was starting to give up hope on ever get a BFP but seeing as some of you girls have... im feeling much better Still scared im infertile tho
x

Welcome Steph!! We all have worried of infertility issues here but like you've probably read even the longest of cycles can resort in to babies!!
My longest cycle was 150 odd days! I've given up on OPKS but still temp i find its the only way of having a slight glance at whether i may have o'd or not or i'd be clueless.

thanks hun, send me over some of your positive vibes

Still a part of me is quite please that even if it is AF, then at least I finally did ovulate!!!

We all have our fingers x'd for you chele! I bet there's some relief there already knowing some thing is happening! Lets hope its a baby bean

im cd135 today!! will be 140 by the time i go to gyno!... hopefully he will give me something to bring af on! cant stand the waiting much longer xxxx

Drakey your nearly beating my 150 odd day cycle! noooooo!! I hope AF surprises you really soon! Have you tried to goggle things that you could possibly ask at you appointment, i do agree about OH being there to listen aswell i would forget everything once i'd come out

nnn84 - well at least she finally turned up. Sorry it wasn't a bean

drakey - soon be there and hopefully yeah they can give you something to start off the

well an update. The spotting continued and yesterday I had the worst cramps of my life. Late last night it turned darker and this morning full AF is here
Ugh! I really thought this was it. I had an implantation dip and everything was telling me I was pregnant. Temp dipped last two days though so it's def AF.

It's weird that AF took a couple of days to start properly and also now I have the most strongest cramps I have had in years. I normally only cramp for one day. But then I suppose my body might be in shock as it's so long since my last period.

My new bbt thermometer hasn't arrive yet so can't start temping via my foo foo yet
Got my next batch of 50 opks and as they worked for me this cycle I'll def be using them now again. So here's hoping for a 30 day cycle - got a good feeling

bon weekend my lovelies

aw chele, sorry about the wicked old hag getting you...spose its kind of a relief though, nice fresh start and hopefully get a shorter cycle this time, make sure you catch the new eggy! Defo stick with the opks...hopefully taking the AC from very start of the cycle will help things regulate/shorten a little! Least you know your LP is normal now too... got a positive feeling about this lovely fresh cycle for you hun. Hope this is the one!

well im off to Middlesbrough this weekend, driving down to the Transporter Bridge as i bought my fiancè a bungee jump off it for his 31st birthday!! So have a good one ladies, speak to you on sunday night! (if i havnt had a nervous breakdown by then...) me and bean have to watch from the bottom!!!!!

Hi all,

Hope you dont mind me invading your team posts. I am after some advice.

I came of BC pill 'Yasmin' in October last yr, had w/drawal bleed and regular period 31 days later in Nov and again in Dec. Then NOTHING! Now been over 6 months! Started taking Agnus Castus last week (anything!) but my doc reluctant to do anything as says uts just coz of the pill-but 6 months?!! Do you think it could be anything else? I am very overweight (size 22) and wonder if this why my periods stopped?

So i see lots of you temp and use OPK's. I've done neither! I bought both a BBT & OPK's about 4 months ago but the BBT is still in its packet and i used OPK's twice! I can't manage the holding my wee and not drinking much thing and thing i'll forget to temp! How easy/hard do you all find it and do you think its the only way?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

xx

Welcome to the team!
I dot use opks anymore but find temping very helpfully i kind of becomes part of your daily routine after a while, i didnt think i would stick at it but i have :thumpup:
Have you been to the doctors about it ?

nnn84 - well at least she finally turned up. Sorry it wasn't a bean

Chele!!!! Woo hoo for a new cycle all though its not 'the baby' cycle lets hope the AC kicks in and you get a shorter cycle this time!!! AND your BFP

How is everyone else doing?

 

[drakey]

getting nervous now for my gyno appt on wednesday, going to start taking calms from tomorrrow lol just really really hope they help me!

welcome to the team mlyn... i would advise going to the docs hun and asking them, thats how i got my refferal to the gyno. xxxxx

 

[Heidi]

I will be thinking of you on Wednesday drakey, think of it as another step forward to your BFP!

 

[Sunshine80]

Can I join this thread?

My last period out of my only 2 periods this year ended April 1st/2009 and nothing since.

Took Provera in March and got 2 periods. Have been trying to conceive since Jan of this year. Have been told by one doctor that I have PCOS so I do understand why it's taking longer.

This whole baby trying thing is getting pretty frustrating. Although I try not to think about it often and just try to go with the flow it's much easier said then done!

I went to see that my doctor a couple months ago and she told me that if I don't get my period in 3 or 4 months to come back and she will do testing.

This waiting game can drive a person nuts!!! LOL!!

 

[rabbit]

Welcome mlyn

Drakey- I love calms........well I suppose love is a rather strong word, but I've always got a bottle in my bag..... obviously not using them at the mo though!

Sunshine80- welcome will the docs not consider doing anything sooner?

one thing I think we all forget on here is that long cycles actually have severe health implications aside from the obvious making it really difficult to catch that eggie

Hows everyone else doing?? x x

 

[drakey]

do calms actually work then? im going to take them tomorrow deffo other wise wednesday ill be a nervous wreck.. im jst putting off taking them lol.

hope every one is ok ...

welcome sunshine! .. hasnt the doc asked to do more tests? xxx

 

[chele]

ah rabbit - now i'm all depressed! Yeah I often forget about the complications it can lead to, so why dr/s make us wait so long!
I got my purple sparkle from duckytext.co.uk - go get one

Welcome to the two newbies!!! hope you're not here long...........Sunshine how was your PCOS diagnosed?

My new thermometer arrived so the foo foo temping has begun. Not nice when is here
Had my cd 1 bloods done today - well it's cd4 but still ok. Did my usual trick of trying to pass out. I used to be awful, then got better have bloods done but when I had my pre-op last year for an operation, they mucked around taking it and i passed out. So now the fear is back. Drakey am sure you understand?! So anyway they took it, I have bad veins, but got there in the end. Got to go back for cd21 and also cd28. also got to see the dr on Tuesday, not sure why as I'm doing the bloods she wanted. Maybe it's to tell me why she couldn't just refer me. I mean what's the point in cd21 bloods for me, considering i ovulated last month on cd100!!!!??

So just doing what they say and then hope i'll get my referral.

 

[drakey]

lol chele, i do understand! im dreading having more blood taken... also dreadin the gyno having a nosey down stairs too lol!!!

hopefully your bloods will all come back fine! ..

im having an odd leg pain! xxxxxx

 

[rabbit]

SORRY- didn't mean to depress anyone, its just another reason to push to see the gyno!

Well done on parting with your blood Chele

Yep, calms work for me..... but i have to take 3 at a time now to make them have an effect........If you pop about 3 an hour before your appointment you'll be fine, not the rubbishy herbal ones with the green packging though, you want the ones in the blue packaging, they're herbal too but loads better I sound like an addict.....

Chele, I dont know how to get me a sparkly thing..... give me some instructions

 

[chele]

rabbit - what do you want it to say and i'll do you one

drakey - fingers crossed nearly there! I don't know if theyll take a look downstairs this time, but even if they do it's not that bad. I'm getting used to it now. it's never nice, but that's their job at the end of the day. now imagine doing that for a living!!!

 

[rabbit]

I want one the same as yours, I think we should all have one and be proud of who we are!!!

 

[drakey]

yay! i agree rabbit!!

ye i got the blue packet calms lol, on the packet it says to take 2, 3 times a day, so was going to do that tomorrow then take 2 for breakfast and 2 at dinner on wednesday... hopefully that should calm me down lol. you watch ill be falling asleep while the gyno is talking to me lol.

chele - ill have to take some femfresh just incase!! lmao! xxx
