Mmy AF decided to show this morning. 👎🏻 The positive thing is that its giving me a bit more time to get used to my body. Do any of you know what type of vitamins ect to take to help ttc?
How are you mma? Anything different happening to you nelly? Lorca, did your AF make an appearance? X
A new cycle for you and a fresh start ttc again that's what I'm looking forward to again:)
I take pregnacare trying to conceive and my hubby takes the same which is Wellman trying to conceive:) I certainly fall preggers ok it's the sticking that's the issue:/!
Hi ladies, AF made an appearance on Sunday and I've just finished so looking forward to this month. Trying not to think about it as much this month as I have a few other health issues to worry about but knowing me, I'll still use opk's and everything else!!
Sorry AF showed up BabyDust, but at least you can start afresh this cycle. Sorry to hear nothing has happened yet MMA, what a nightmare! Can't wait for us to start getting some more BFP's! I hope Becca is doing ok, haven't seen her around so fingers crossed everything is fine xx
Hi nelly, well I know you can like invert the image I think on that countdowntopreganancy try that and see if anything comes up? I can't seem to see a line.. 😕 I do hope it is a bfp. I'm coming to the end of my AF. Going to be hard to track ovualtion I think because my cycles have differed. hope you are all well. X
Ive tried an invert on my photo editor but it doesnt pick up a second line bahhhh.
You using opks this cycle? I havent used them the last 2 cycles but going to next one. Havent used my conceive gel yet either so will give that a go too.
Aww yeah just wait till a few more days. Cycles can be strange, I still can't believe mine 55 days last. I'm not going to use opks I struggle to do them throughout the day with being in work and no one knows I'm ttc. I'm just hoping for the best really and not worrying about it. I said a couple of days ago, when I confirmed my AF arrived on my app, the day it told me I ovulated i noted that my nipples were becoming tender so I think that might be an incline of ovulation so I'll look out for that this time aha. X
Aw yeah if you struggle to do one the same time each day then i wouldnt bother, they create stress. Its good to pick up the signs though and plenty of bd, hopefully should work ha.
Hope everyone is well. Mm a really sorry to hear about your baby.
Good luck nelly.
I don't really comment on this thread but do follow it. My story so far is that I downloaded ovia app and was and am following that. We bd 8 times in the fertile days last month and was really hopeful. I was due AF on 11th but started spotting on 9th and then full flow started on 10th. did 2 pregnancy tests and both negative. I think I ovulated on 26th Jan and bd'd 4 days in a row but still bfn plus another 4 around the time. How the hell could I have missed ovulation. Im sure the sperm is supposed to stay inside alive for 6 days or so. had 2 positive ov tests on 26 and 27. 28th was lighter. So I am ovulating. It really stressed me out.
Any more advice from you ladies. I have pulled out my pregnacare conception tablets. I was previously taking seven seas ttc and then folic acid. Nothing seems to be working. So I finish my AF on Monday and will ovulate 23rd according to the my days app. Last cycle was 30 days this cycle was 29 days. Advice?
I was so positive last month when bd'ing and we enjoyed it but my hopes have dropped now. Got my partner to make a Dr app to get his semen analysed as I have been going since March 2015 and there's nothing more they can do for me until he gets a checked. We have 1 boy so that Dr not concerned but I am.
Sounds like you are doing everything right Daisy so not sure but it can take upto 2 years to conceive:/ It's so stressful eh! I did use preseed but that just mimicks cm really and helps the sperm travel. Good luck and I hope it happens very soon for you:)
Have you had day 2 and day 21 bloods taken to check u are ovulating as a positive opk doesn't mean we actually ovulate. The blood tests confirm it just a thought as it measure LH levels and progesterone levels xxx
Hi daisy. It sounds like youre doing all the right things. Its frustrating isnt it when we try try try but it still doesnt happen.
Its recommended we dtd every other day so the sperm have chance to build up. You could give SMEP a read and try it out. Maybe try clear blue digital opks as you dont have to read lines and you know its definitely positive/negative.
I take seven seas vits but they havent seemed to help much so far. I bought my dh vits too but he always forgets to take them!!!
Best thing to do is stay relaxed...although its so difficult not to get annoyed and frustrated!! 😧 x
Oh no, nelly do not loose hope! We will all get out Bfps eventually.. Try think of the positives, it gives you more time to save money, more time to prepare ect. It might be a daft question but are bding every other day when ovulation is going to hit? I seen on the mirror paper that they say people focus on the time around ovulation which is where people go wrong in it. X
Thanks babydustx. The day of AF i always feel crappy and disappointed but i usually feel way better next day and positive. I just start to worry its not going to happen but i know 6 months isnt massively long, arghhh impatient.
Id say we dtd from around af ending; every 1 to 3 days then from after ovulation; every 2 to 4 days. What did it recommend?
Im back using opks, got the light pink clearblue digis which tell you your 2 most fertile days. Not sure whens best to do them but i think i'll stick to first thing on a morning, unless MMA can recommend whens best to do them? Only used the purple clear blue ones before 😞 x
went to EPAU today was rescanned and given vaginal tablets. After 7 hours of waiting and hoping nothing happened then all of a sudden bleeding started so it's finally worked! Doctor wants to see me again in the morning as he's unhappy that this has gone on for so long! I'm just 11 weeks which flew by but a sad ending:/ I'm desperately hoping the sac comes away on its own as I'm bleeding but in no pain and not really loosing clots. Doctor said the sac will be quite big and no mistaking it so I'm a bit nervous as that will be a little scary!
Ill let you know how I get on and thanks for thinking of me that means a lot:)
nelly I use fmu with clear blue digis but I use the strip tests aswel at 2.30pm. As sometimes I get a negative in morning then a strong positive in the afternoon. I then still confirm with clear blue at about 4pm and holding on for a wee for a while. They always tally up and I've been pg 8 X!! They defo help:) used my preseed this time aswell although I find it a pain!
Aw no, that does sound scary mma, such an awful thing to have to go through. That sticky bean will happen for you and it will make all this heartbreak feel like it was for something.
Thank you, i will do them with fmu and order some cheapies too!! My oh not keen on using the gel so i might try slip it in and see he notices 🙈 do you bd every other day or more often? X
