TTC #1- Looking for buddies!

My morning latte unstressed my body and allowed my to surge this afternoon. Bahahahahaha. Was my theory Right? We will never know but I'll take the + either way.

I took the IC it was positive so I did the CB and got the solid smiley. Yay!

Woohoo Dream. Better get to work! :D

(lol I just realized that almost makes it sound as if BD=work=prostitution, but you know what I mean :haha:)

TB, glad to see you didn't get your + OPK yet in case my cycle is really copying yours ;) Jk of course, I hope you'll soon O, but still! The high fertility does indicate that everything seems to be functioning and it's just a matter of time before you get that peak.

Steph, glad to hear your thyroid isn't part of the problem :) When are your next appointments? I hope things will move quickly!
 
Haha Sunny, big leap from trying to make a baby to prostitution :haha:

Yeah I was glad that the thyroid came back fine. Would have been just one more thing to complicate things. I phoned hubby and he asked if I get a prize for having the second highest AMH they've ever seen!

Now I just wait for the clinic to process the forms I had to get signed by my GP, and then we should get called in for another consultation (I hope within the next few weeks) about the egg share process and then further screening tests for the both of us I think, which can take 4 weeks to get results from. If everything is good and we still decide that the egg share is for us (I think we have to have counselling too), then I think they would start the process of trying to find a suitable recipient. So eager to find out whether or not we will be suitable!
 
Dream YAY you have made it! lol FXd you caught that egg!

Sunny- lol your chart is copying me right now but we can tell them to stop so I can O ASAP and then you can copy me again Monday! ha! I have another acupuncture appointment tomorrow. It was supposed to be a "holding pattern" session to help with implantation but I guess we are going to push for O again. I really hope the High Fertility thing on the CB digital is accurate! I'm trying to practice patience.. it isn't easy!

Steph- I hope you get the news you want! So maybe a couple of months before the IVF actually happens?
 
Day 2 of the surge. The BD continues.

Have you guys used preseed or any other sperm friendly lubes? I've used it the past couple nights. Problem is I can't really monitor my CM now. Can't tell if I'm getting my EW or if it's leftover remnants from the night before. I didn't use much. Instructions said most women use between 2-3g or mg whatever it is and I did 2. It sticks around well into the next afternoon tho it seems.....

Amber, we all want to give you friends in the bump club! lol
 
Wow, those sure are beauties Dream and Tb :D I hope I'll join you soon, but not too soon lol. I'll be okay from tomorrow on out I think, but Sunday or Monday would be even better.

How's everything Amber? Just a couple more weeks until your first appointment right? You must be so excited :D Did you guys tell anyone yet?

Tb, looks like you a temp spike this morning. Do you think you've O'd already? I told my chart to stop copying yours for the next few days, hope she'll listen ;)

Steph, I hope you'll soon get the egg sharing consultation session! It really sounds like a great option for you guys and I hope the doctors agree :) In case all else fails, have you considered going abroad for IVF? I know fertility tourism for Brits is huge, especially to Spain and the Czech Republic. We're planning on contacting a few clinics in Prague by the end of this year if we end up having to go the IVF route.
 
Sunny - I hope you get your + OPK right when you want it.

Amber - yes, when is your first appointment. I'm excited to live through you a little bit.

I'm assuming I'll get my temp spike tomorrow. If my body follows trend of the last 2 cycles I usually spike 2 days after my Peak or first positive. Which means today will be marked as my O day. So we are gonna do the BD again tonight for good measure. It's cycle 4 for us but this is the first cycle we have BD every single night of the fertile window. So we are feeling very optimistic but then again I think I feel this way every cycle. lol
 
Sunny- I hope O comes at the perfect time for you. Also, I appreciate the pep talk with your chart- I guess it helped lol
I can't tell if I already O'd or not? My acupuncturist also thinks I did because of the temp spike but my surge is usually longer than that? I tested again just now and its still positive. Can the surge last after O?
 
Tb- nice temp spike!

Sunnybe- hope you O sun or mon!

Dream- hope your temp spikes tomorow!

Steph- the egg share sounds like a wonderful option! Can't wait to hear how your appointment goes!

My first appointment is in 2 weeks, I am really excited about it! Still doesn't quite feel real yet though. I'm fortunate that my symptoms have not been too bad!

We haven't told anyone yet because we want to think of some fun ideas to tell our parents- since it will be their first grandchild :) It's really hard not telling anyone though, thank goodness I have you ladies to talk to!
 
Thanks guys, we are excited about the possibility of it!

Sunny, w haven't looked into clinics abroad yet, but it's definitely something we would look into before even thinking about spending £7,000+ on one cycle here. How would going abroad work with all the appointments and things though? Would you have to go multiple times, do you just go for a long period of time...? I can't really envisage how it would work logistically, although I'm sure loads of people manage. My husband's sergeant is Indian and as soon as hubby told him he said 'go to India, you can stay with my brother for free!' :haha:
 
Tb I'm right behind you. Spike today. Now I wait for my crosshairs.


Wait....wait.....wait....wait.....wait....wait....
 
My temp today was crazy. I tested several times and got a variety of answers.. but opk was negative so I think I had already O'd. Oh well we definitely caught it lol so I guess we will see soon enough!
