Ttc shit boat - long term ttcers

[Syd43]

I'm so sorry snowbee.

 

[Sugarpop]

Sorry Snowbee! After my 4 days of flashing now I'm
Light pink bleeding? What on earth is going on?!

 

[Syd43]

Any chance it could be IB sugarpop?

Snowbee, is IVF an option for you? Or have you already been down that road?

 

[Sugarpop]

I don't think it's IB. I've read spotting at ov can be a sign of a strong ovulation so hoping to god it's that and I get a solid smiley tomorrow!

 

[snowbee]

Could it be ovulation spotting sugar?

We have one IVF go on the NHS (although currently I'm too heavy). My consultant wants us to take it now but I want more clomid. I'm concerned that if we use our one and only IVF go and it either works I will mc or doesn't work and then it is game over either way. I know that is a ridiculous way of thinking but I can't help it! It is such a final step to take I'm not sure I can at the moment. Adoption and fostering aren't options for us so I'm crapping myself now about this being the last chance!

 

[Syd43]

Not ridiculous at all, I understand that fear even though I'm not in the same position.

 

[Sugarpop]

I think it's heavy for spotting. Not too bad. Only using a liner but it's there every time I wipe. Sorry for the TMI.

Just reviving this thread!! Hope everyone is well, still not managed to get off the damn boat, reckon I'm a lifer

 

[Syd43]

Hi, still here. First month allowed after fibroid removal, now the stress of will we manage to bd tonight...

 

[stacesl3]

Hey Syd, ugh I know the feeling, I get more stressed about whether or not I will get to BD and at the right time than I am about TWW.....thats a walk in the park compared to it lol! Fingers crossed for you this month. x Just waiting for Af now, due Sunday. x

 

[Syd43]

Completely agree. We've both just got off a 14 hr flight which won't help. How are you feeling this month?

 

[snowbee]

Hi Stace and Syd, I'm also still here. Probably also a lifer! Certainly a crew member by now haha.

I'm due af tomorrow or the day after I think. I did test yesterday and of course negative. I don't know why I bother testing really I should just save the money and put it in the ivf pot.

Hope your fibroid removal went well Syd.

 

[Syd43]

It did thanks snowbee. I don't test anymore, I find bfn's more depressing than af starting.

 

[phonixgirl]

Still here! Managed to get nice 28 day cycles now so even though I may never be a mum, at least I'm not bleeding all the time xx

 

[Sugarpop]

Still here!! Think I'll always be here!

 

[phonixgirl]

Me too Sugarpop!

Girl at work has just announced her pregnancy on FB (she got pg straight away - we were told a few weeks ago). Unfollowed!

 

[Emily0505]

I'm still aboard.

I had my third consecutive mc in May. We are going in for testing next week to see if a cause can be found, so it'll be ask systems go from there. We had taken a break while we were waiting for the tests to be organised.

Been ttc for 2 years in October! Boo!!

As ever, I've got my fingers crossed for everyone.

XX

 

[snowbee]

Sorry to see so many of us are still here, still waiting. I'm so bored of ttc. I did manage to push it out my mind a bit the last cycle but that obviously has made zero difference!

I'm 13/14 dpo and my temp has dropped so I'm going to be here a bit longer (oh the surprise!). Roll on clomid cycle 7...

 

[phonixgirl]

I thought you could only do 6 clomid cycles Snowbee? Argh how frustrating. Why can't we get off this damn thing?! It is sad that a lot of us are still here.

I've started thinking 'what next'. My friend at work has adopted and she said she's going to let me know when their next open evening is so we can go along and ask questions (mainly about hubby's very old conviction). I'm actually coming to terms with the fact it will never happen though and focusing on expensive holidays etc.

I don't know if I want to the repeat nk cell test to be lower or not. I've been taking omega 3 which can lower it and avoiding inflammatories but I still want the steroids after the FET. I could actually tell which side I was ovulating from this cycle which was a first.

 

[stacesl3]

Completely agree. We've both just got off a 14 hr flight which won't help. How are you feeling this month?

Ekk yeah that is a long flight! I'm okay, I am actually waiting for AF now so i can get this cycle over and done with! Not 100% sure I OV'd and if i did it was early so missed dtd at the right time had super tender boobs right from OV time so thinking that may have been an estrogen issue as I think that can make your boobs swollen and sore? Not as bad now, AF due Sunday i think?
