TTC #3! Anyone welcome!!

[babymumma6]

Babybrain.. you aren't the only one, I was thinking the same thing and I have to have csections so id having to go 2 weeks before Xmas was is crazy!!

 

[fuschia]

I'm a c-section mum too ! My dd would prob be around 19-20 Dec so I'd have a c-section prob a few days before that and be recovering over Xmas ! Not idea but then again there will be more family around in that period to help me initially - we are still going to try

For us , Jan and Feb already have 3 out of 4 of the family birthdays ! It won't put me off trying but we will end up having 4 out of 5 family birthday all within about 3 weeks of each other with a Jan/Feb bday lol xx

Hi everybody!

I see why you'd dislike December birth. But I wouldn't mind. We're not really celebrating Christmas and spend New Year's at my MIL which I could do without . And I'd hate to lose a cycle, I have small enough chances to get pregnant as it is.

I'm patiently waiting to ovulate. I really hope my OPK is positive today. I feel a dull ache in my ovaries now and then but not much so I'm a bit doubtful. I hope clomid did the trick this time and that I get my BFP in April.

Another CSection mumma too. I always play with the idea of having a VBAC, but then I don't want to ruin my vagina, and I'm thinking of tying my tubes after this one. I'll play with the idea when eventually get pregnant.

DH had his appointment this morning to check his spermies. Tomorrow is do it in a container day and I'll have to run it to the doctor within a hour. Fingers crossed things come back normal.

CD6 and time is taking forever. I'm fertile on my birthday, and if successful a due date of the 23rd of December. SHIT!! I can deal with that though.

 

[Gypsy99]

DH was super open with his friends about trying tonight too. First time, he's usually quite quiet about it. Really confirms that he is all in.

 

[rachybaby85]

Gypsy great news that your DH was so open. Hope you get some answers to the tests soon too!
I'm a c-section mummy too, my dd is a Dec baby 12th so if we try this cycle I'd be a 23rd due date so baby would be born just after my dd's birthday.
Love the idea though that family will be around and the kids off school so much easier to recover. So think we're going to try this cycle. I started using my clearblue monitor so just waiting out now.
Last cycle I think I ovulated cd27!! However I've been under loads of stress so think that may have had an effect.

How's everybody else doing?

 

[Gypsy99]

Been a little stressed and anxious this week too. Had appointments and trying to sort the house all week. Taking a break in a couple days, but all my study has crept up on me. Have a shit load to catch up on. Not working next week just studying!

Dh's sample went in yesterday. Hoping we hear by Monday if there are issues. He seems a little worried. Me to :-/

 

[Katy78]

Good luck with results Gypsy!

AFM, OPKs were still negative, on CD 16. Another long messed up cycle I guess . I just hope it's not a cyst or something. I have post O symptoms but the OPKs never got positive. I don't know. I'll keep testing... and hoping...

 

[ricschick]

good luck gypsy hope all is ok!

 

[Feronia]

I'm on CD 36 and 15 dpo, which is long for me but I got a bfn yesterday so I'm sure I'm out. Not sure what's going on, but I'm going to think about asking about clomid if I don't get pregnant next cycle.

 

[Gypsy99]

Good luck feronia.

How's everyone doing? I'm approaching ovulation. Cd17 and usually cd15 or cd16. I've been so slack this cycle. Been useless with vitamins and water. Been drinking the last two weekends. This process has taken so long!!

 

[BabyBrain80]

Hey I'm cd8. Last cycle I may have ovulated around cd12 but I did an opk today to see if we were on a similar track but not a sausage!

Still not sure if to wait a couple of months but figured it's nice to keep track of things, I do like to poas lol and 2 cycles is soooooo loooooong to wait.

 

[fuschia]

Hey ladies - still here just silently

I'm waiting to ovulate - nothing on the opk yet though ... Last time I oved on cd 18 and today is cd13 . I am having acupuncture tomorrow with a fertility specialist so I have my fingers crossed ! Xx

 

[Katy78]

Still waiting to O here as well. And it's been a long wait so far. CD 20 today and usually I O on CD 16 at the latest. I'm feeling ovary pain/bloated so I'm hoping OPK will be positive today.

 

[Bloblo]

Hi Ladies- just wanted to extend s final thanks to you all for the support.
I had my first ultra sound on Saturday - everything is going perfectly. Its still strange to be pregnant after trying for sooooo long - feels weird not to measure temps, pee on sticks, check cm, plan bd etc...
Now there is just waiting and worrying.
I wish you all the best! For me, there were 2 main things done differently in my bfp cycle: visualisation/positive thinking/law of attraction and SMEP. Maybe it could work for some of you too.

 

[Gypsy99]

Thanks Bloblo and I'm glad things are going well for you

I'm starting to feel ovulation ramping up at the moment. Will start OPK's tomorrow night. I'm really quite over everything at the moment, will still try and pounce DH as much as he can tolerate.

Good luck with the acupuncture too Fushia!

Katy I hope O hurry's up.

Babybrain nearly time for O. I hope she doesn't keep you waiting.

 

[Gypsy99]

I'm getting grumpy with people saying everything will be OK too. Been told to wait another year from a friend before we start thinking we have problems. Been told to relax all this crap. When your doing it at the right time it should just bloody happen. Such an ass of a body i have at the moment.

 

[babymumma6]

Waiting to ovulate here also! I'm due to over the weekend!

 

[rebeccalouise]

Hey ladies! Sorry, I took a little break as it all got too much for me last cycle. I've got my head together now though, and I'm back! I hope you're all well? I'm currently 7DPO today, so just waiting it out. X

 

[Tristansmom]

CD11 here, after 9 days of gonal-F injections, my estrogen level is still pretty low (294 with 2 follicles, 13 and 14 mm). Dr is prescribing a shot of Luveris to try and boost my estrogen tonight in the hopes that the egg quality will still be ok but I feel like the wind has been knocked out of my sails. I kinda just want to give up the medicated cycles, take one more shot at a natural IUI and call it quits on this whole TTC thing.
