I've had this majorly noticeable pulling sensation on my right side since 4 or 5 dpo it's kind if spread today though I had a few days I felt like I had the flu but my conditions have been behaving themselves weirdly, got a head cold today with no reason to have one, been peeing loads more then even when my overactive bladder kicks off during a bad fibro spell. It's all in my journal it's hard to remember it. Yea I don't normally symptom spot but it's stuff I can't ignore I make note of so then if I get it again I know to ignore it totally but haven't had a cycle like this. I've had pulling sensation before but no where near as bad as this

Well another day and another pregnancy annoucement. My oldest friend...We went to nursery together. Altho we see little of each other now as we live opposite ends of the country.

However this one feels a little different. I am super thrilled for her as her dad has had a brain tumour and various complications over the last 8 years and will eventually go completely blind. So she really does deserve the little family.

Also I opened up and asked her how long they had been trying and she told me they have had 2 miscarriages. They have been trying about a year in total....so have caught 3 times in that time but just goes to show we are not alone and everyone has a journey that is different and a story to tell x

It’s easy to assume every one has an easy journey, isn’t it?

I’m glad she was honest with you and also that you were able to be happy for her, that is one of the hardest things when you are on this journey.

Nicest thing was that she didn't say it will all be ok or your turn will come or any of the other things. She just said....rhat must be really tough. Was by far the best response I've had x

Funny cos I've had similar symptoms to you. This right ovary twinge has been there since 4dpo and it's just been this constant niggle. I am loaded with cold today though...started on Sunday....was bearable yesterday but I'm struggling today. I'm working 1-10pm all week this week so just had some supper....curry lol to try and clear my face a bit....loads of fluids and dosing up on the beechams....planning a long lie in tomorrow to hopefully pull me round x

Hi ladies! Been away for a few days getting my head into looking after myself, and doing some research on IVF/ICSI. Watched a documentary on it and it just left me feeling so deflated that only 1 in the 4 couples followed had a baby. It feels it does just come back to nature. Anyway I am thinking I have not ovulated again this month. My OPKs have had lines (hardly any faint) which are quite strong but not as strong as or darker continuously since CD8, I’m now CD17. I have had so much on these past few weeks and such a shock with the IVF/ICSI news that I’m hardly surprised. Disappointed though as I’d love to hit lucky. X

Hi Mandy don't give up hope....the stats on IVF now are really good. They were even talking on the news the other day about how adoption rates are so low because the IVF success rates are so high. Xx

 

[Mandy123]

Aw thanks Hun. I did hear that too... guess it’s just harder to watch the personal stories! This ttc it’s so complex for some of us! X

Hi Mandy,

I’m in the same boat, starting with a private clinic in January, they have the best success rates in the area but even that is just over 50%.

My husband seems so sure that ivf is a guarantee you’ll have a baby but it just isn’t.

I haven’t ovulated for 3 months in a row I think so you’re not alone! Keep your chin up!

When are you starting ivf?

The joys of PCOS, these mood swings are unbearable. I just want this to be over.
