@KiwiMoomin Firstly I just want to say a massive thank you for such a
wonderful and kind message. You really have no idea how much your kind and
supportive words meant to me, so thank you for being such a genuine and caring person.
Wow, reading your story has given me a little hope to hold
onto.. although my story feels like a
long and painful one, yours is much longer and much more painful, and i'm sorry
if my message has made you feel angry that someone who is nowhere near the length
of your journey is complaining about theirs. Sometimes people need a reminder that they are very lucky to be breathing and your message has reminded me of just that.
I feel a little hope and more relaxed at the fact my Dr has finally referred me to a fertility specialist, as i feel that my months are not wasted if we don't conceive and that the thought of an appointment is a little bit of light at the end of our tunnel. I just realistically don't know when this appointment will be, especially with covid, i just hope it doesn't take forever.
All of your words have made me pick myself up, dust myself
off and get ready to embrace another month of trying.
Thank you so much x
@Ami612 thank you so much for your lovely, kind words! I’m so pleased to read they gave you a little lift. And please don’t worry at all, I’m not the slightest bit upset with ANYONE for complaining about their own TTC journey, no matter how long or short. We feel what we feel in relation to our own experiences. Yes, my story is a pretty tedious and bleak one, but everyone has their own cross to bear. And compared to many other infertility warriors, I do actually feel very lucky myself! I am so fortunate to have my beautiful daughter, a loving, supportive OH, my good health, and to have access and funds to pursue private IVF, and (if ever needed) expensive donor eggs and adoption. So many suffering and struggling women are childless and with very limited options. I try to focus on the positives, and that helps keep everything in perspective.
I’ve also sent you a private message detailing various supplements and a couple of resources I‘ve found invaluable. I hope you find the info helpful and leads you to discover your own solution and hard fought for BFP!
Good morning ladies! I’ve been so busy that I just realized last night that I needed to come to the December group since my period is due Dec 3 😆 CD17 today, about 4dpo from my estimation. We got to BD 2-3 during my fertile window, so we will see what happens. I think this is my fifth cycle?
I really feel like this is the one! And it would put my due date a day away from my husbands birthday so that would be super cool! Although I’m not excited about being pregnant over the summer. I have two spring babies and those were the best time to have babies imo, but I didn’t get to pick this time. God’s plan is best and I’m excited to see what it is. I have a 5.5yo girl and 3.5yo boy and they are just wonderful. Hoping I have have another babe. I want a child with my husbands beautiful hazel eyes lol
Hi ladies hope everyone is well. I’m moving over to the December group. I was going to have a break this cycle due to the fact that if I conceive this month I will be due the week before my wedding. I’ve had my wedding cancelled twice due to COVID so I didn’t want to have to cancel it again but having had a long think about things I just can miss an opportunity to conceive the thought of it was getting me so down. So I’m just going to go for it and see what happens. Im on CD10 expecting to ovulate around CD16/CD17.
Fingers crossed there are lots of Christmas bfps this month x
Hey hun, cd15 here Flo is saying ov in 8 days based on my first long cycle but I’m pretty sure I’m about 5dpo as had ewcm on Tuesday but we are keeping up with the bding just incase. How are you? X
Hiya everyone. Hope everyone is having a relaxing sunday. I'm back on here after a long break. This is my first month trying after so long. I'm single and using a new donor so I'm optimistic and hoping for a bfp in December. I'm CD16 and af is due on the 3rd. Wishing everyone luck for next month 💜
@Lh8609 sounds promising and covering all possibilities with bding! 🤞I’m good thanks. Wish ovulation was here but it is what it is! App is predicting in 5 days but could be anytime!
@Bonnie1983 that was meant to say welcome and good luck but never came up! My cycles aren’t regular yet since coming off the pill so it’s coming at various points in the cycle! I’m tracking them with opks though just no surge just yet this month xx
Just also want to say how amazing it is you’re using a donor 💕
My ovulation day was yesterday (baby danced 2 days leading up to it) and then hours later I was so unwell pain in stomach and light head, went after about 10 hours. Hope it does effect my chances, who knows. 🤷
@SP28@Sj83 ahhh thank you for the welcome. X My friend is in the same boat as you with coming off the pill and she said shes experiencing on and off periods which I can imagine is very annoying . Haha yes, a donor who is local but not too local, he says he'll be at my disposal for a few days a month which I'm very greatful for. We are doing NI but we've done all our checks etc. Its not a romantic union as such but we get on well eno8gh😁. We bd'd once a day from day cd8 to cd13 -opk's predicted my ovulation was day 12. Maybe once a day for 6 days was too much but at least I covered all bases 😂💜
Hey ladies! Hope you're all well! Im officially in this group! Af arrived last night, and let's just say....she came fully charged! Goodluck to everyobe this month!!
@SorrentoMummy ahh that's rubbish .hope all is ok now. I was taking painkillers due to a bad back so maybe they have effected that aswell🤷♀️. Who knows but we both did what we needed to do leading up and that's the main thing 😁
Welcome @Bonnie1983 and good luck. There’s gona be a shed load of us testing in 2 weeks time! I literally have no symptoms right now I’m just really wet down there. No pains or anything x
