Trying before AF?

I've just got back and thats exactly what just happened, told him I'd done 3 tests and he just took my blood pressure, told me my due date and referred me to the midwife. He also told me any blood tests would be pointless as they couldn't do anything even if it did show anything.

Oh sometimes they are useless aren't they! If your blood came back showing low progesterone Or oestrogen or something like that for example I'm sure they would do something about it! I'm sure everything will be fine though, as soon as you hit 6 weeks get an appointment at the early pregnancy unit, you could even ring them now and say your GP didn't offer you any advice so in your experience is there anything you could suggest and when can I come in for an early scan...

My OH would kill me if he knew how much money I spend on sticks. I want a big supply cus I'm always running out any suggestions?

Me tooo...I ordered too few days back.. i am still going through the mmc bleeding and want to try rightaway after it. god knows if/when i ll O this 'cycle'.. need to keep checking. The 'down there' area is quite sore as of now... lesse how it goes.. Might opt for IVI this cycle if not better by the O time..

 

[xxemmyxx]

Shefali how long have you been bleeding for?
I only bled for 5 days and luckily my cycle seems to be back on track but I'm pretty sure I didn't ovulate last cycle, I did opk's when I thought I was ovulating and had CM but I never got a positive, was first time using opk's though so who knows!

Ok IVI that's artificial insemination yes? I know nothing about this hope you dont think I'm being nosey but how you going to do that?

I took a pill to induce my mmc on this wednesday.. so this is the 6th day.
OPKs have always worked with me so i totally rely on them. i use them around noon time. just make sure your pee isnt diluted.

IVI is Intra Vaginal Insemination. The man's sperm is put into the woman's genital tract artificially. Sperm may be placed in the neck of the womb (cervix), known as intracervical insemination, or at the base of the cervix which is called ivi. Fresh sperm is to be collected in a sterilized cup and inserted inside the vagina with a syringe (pee-collection cups and syringe can be bought from the chemist. these are sterilized already). It helps if you cant due to various reasons everyday. it takes care of all the days when you cant. the chances will be lil less but still its better than not trying Its all approved by my doctor infact she only suggested and explained it

 

[xxemmyxx]

Ahhh ok I literally learn something new everyday since I been trying to have a baby! Lol

Well your only on day 6 hopefully the bleeding will stop soon and you will feel more like your normal self.

So is your husband/partner happy to try these things? Lol I'm laughing at the thought of asking my OH to do it in a cup but I know he would if he had to, not all men are as compliant

[mrs_swj2be]

OH MY GOD BAILEY! I'm so happy for youuuuuuuuu! That's the best news and has really given me hope.

I started bleeding yesterday... I'm taking a little break from BnB. I love all you ladies, but I'm sure you understand.

I'm pretty devastated again. This is horrible.

have you seen a dr or had any tests as it could be normal bleeding when i first stared bleeding the dr cheecked me over and said it could be normal and just to rest.
fx'd for you but whatever the out come we are all still here for you.

Me.... Im feeling confused lol, as not sure 100% if I did ovulate, BUT if I did Im feeling not bad, had sniffles and sneezes today and yesterday. Also my boobs always hurt straight after O, only they arnt, this happend when I got my BFP in April, might just be because I have not O'ed yet of course...
All depends if opk I did on Thursday was positive, think it was but not sure lol.

Hope you bleeding stops soon hun so you can start your TTC journey again.
