**** October Testing Thread****

Go on then, stick me on the 31st as well. I have zero optimism now but hopefully will have had my first gyn appointment by then. Xx

Yay 31st better bring us some good news. I will have had my infertility appt by then too.

Lets do this girls !!! :dance::dance::dance:
 
May I have Oct 15th please? I feel sure I won't need it - it's our first month TTC and we weren't really sure what was happening when - still aren't to be honest... I've no idea when to expect AF, but I'm now pretty sure I ovulated on CD21 so 15th sounds about right!

Fx to all the ladies coming up to testing!
 
Can I have October 26th please? Really hoping it works out this month. Trying preseed, the softcup method, sperm meets egg, and DH and I are both taking fertilify 3 times a day. This HAS to work, right? Lol FX and baby dust to everyone this month!!!

:dust:
 
Fastnet- hope AF has stayed away!! fx!! xx

moomingirl- HAPPY TESTING DAY <3 haha xx

KMG- update update update :D xx

So the witch started to show her face late Wednesday night. Cramps were so bad I was up half the night and she was in full force yesterday. Had a complete meltdown on Wednesday night. Not because I had any belief that we had done it but because I knew we hadn't and here I was right as usual. I've lost count of what cycle we're on now. To be honest, I think I'd rather not know. It's the first month I've really felt like I may be done. My head still wants to keep going but I really feel like my heart has given up. I knew I'd take this one harder than usual since its our first proper cycle after having the polyp removed. Just to add further issues to what feels like an endless list, I actually feel like the witch has almost gone. It's only CD2. This happened last month but I put it down to the surgery. So now I'm worried that the polyp has been bleeding every month and my lining is rubbish or something. It wouldn't surprise me. Sorry for the rant but I really do feel like a pile of crap. Bit worrying that this is a massive improvement from yesterday haha. I think I've already got myself down for 31st. Might as well keep it just for fun as my cycles are usually about 26 days.

So sorry! I know how you feel. Don't know if it helps but the fertility doc I spoke to said a 2 day AF is perfectly fine for normal fertility. I'm cd2 as well and testing on day 31 as 26 day cycle. Feel my heart has given up too.

They can always do a scan to check your lining but a 2 day bleed is fine, he said 1-3 days was normal. Mine are often 2 days.

Big hug...I know how hard it is xxxx
 
So sorry Moomin :hugs: AF only visits two days for me too xxx

Thanks guys. Maybe it is normal to only bleed for 2 days. I always bled for about 5 before and they always said that was normal? Don't get me wrong I'm happy to only bleed for 2 days as long as it's not an issue haha! I've had 2 scans already which they said were normal apart from the polyp and they didn't see anything else when they took the polyp out so I know I'm probably stressing over nothing but I'll add it to the list of questions. On the plus side my house got a very good clean today as I had the day off and decided it was best to keep busy!
 
It's so hard not to stress!
My AF are around 7 days long atm but last few days are always more spotting xx

Tomorrow is my testing day lol I've already done some cheapies but not got much hope after what the clinic said. A couple of them I thought I saw something but did two this morning and couldn't see anything. AF due Sunday but when I was temping my lp was only around 12 days so should be due anytime from now xx

Good luck millielaura. I think I read in another post that OHs sperm results weren't as good as you hoped? Sorry if I've got that wrong. Have you got him on the Wellman vitamins? They improved motility for my OH hugely. Not seen a result yet but might be worth a try.
 
Yeah his motility is low! We haven't bought any yet as my daughter's been ill so pretty much sat in all week haha but next time I'm out and about I'm going to get him some :).
I know hes had low vitamin D and I read that isn't great for sperm so he has a doctor's appointment next week for a repeat of vitamin D bloods and also put the vitamin D supplements on the side in hopes he takes them lol xx

Tesco also do a his & hers which I'm planning to try just cos they're cheaper. I'm sure they'll do the same job! Also been trying to eat a bit better - more fruit and veg etc. You may know this already but if he does a repeat test it's better to do them 3 months apart as that's how long it takes to make sperm. We found this out the hard way. He did his 2nd sample a month after the first and it was a little better but really about the same. Got him on the vitamins and I think it was about 4 months later that the third sample was much better. Of course there could be a lot of factors but I like to think the vitamins helped.
