Ttc shit boat - long term ttcers

Thanks honeybear, has AF stayed away?

Stace, your numbers look good, I am sure anything below 12.5 is good in regards to FSH. They should have tested estrogen at the same time though as unusually high estrogen can affect the FSH so its the best way to get an overall view, did they test that? xx

Thanks lisey, no the only things she 'ticked' on the form was LH/FSH and the thyroid! I do remember when i went for blood tests last year they tested for all the above, plus estrogen and testostorone (sp?) and something else that i cant remember the name of....but i was referred by a different doctor so perhaps she is more thorough than the Ice queen i had!

I am going for the 21 day bloods on the 24th, do you think i should get it checked then? I guess i would have to ring the bloody docs myself or could add it on the form myself...

Hi everyone, hope you're all enjoying the sun! I'm just back from the hospital after a colposcopy, and it so happens that the guy who did that is the guy I was referred to for fertility later in the month. I mentioned my second appointment to him, and as he was going through my notes I could see letters from epu etc... He said he won't do anything now because he knows I can get pregnant but has booked me in again for 6 months time, and if no pregnancy then I'm straight on clomid. I got a bit upset that he told me to wait but now I've come away I feel really happy about it, I'm so glad I have a solid time frame now I hope I don't have to wait that long because that will be 26 months since we started trying. I really hope it happens again naturally, but if not it doesn't seem like such a big deal anymore. I hope all your afs are staying away. I'm 8dpo today and bfn. I'm not usually an early tester but I thought if it was + I could get out of the colposcopy! No such luck! Xx

I am pretty sure it needs to be done at the same time as FSH to get a true reading to compare against but you could always ask it to be added just to see if its in range at that point in cycle too xx

Glad you're feeling positive and happy, its good to have a little target and then you know that there is a plan once that time has come.
I hope you don't need that appointment though. I am 8dpo too, haven't tested though, hope you have a bfp to come this cycle xx

How is everyone doing on this rocky ship today?

I am 8dpo and I said I had no symptoms so far this month, today boobs are a little sore and I am so so tired. It has been such a busy and full on week though so could be that. Do feel a little queasy but I get this every 2WW, I think I am just sensitive to hormonal changes. Nothing other than that to report, hope my follow sailors are preparing their lifejackets to get off this stupid boat xx

Ugh, that would mean having to go back to the doctor I dont think I could face it, dont know why she didn't add it on the form. Unless I add it to the form I have for the 21 day bloods (they give you a form in my docs to take to the hosp whe you have a blood test)

Are you late? Have you tested to be sure?

That's how I do bloods too, I can't alter what they test though as they do a print out so they would be able to tell that I had done it with pen. Will they do a phone consultation with you where you can say they should have put estrogen on there too and if you could repeat, or would you not want to repeat them just yet? xx

Hello ladies
I'm rubbish at multi quoting ha ha
Sugar have you tested ?.. when's af due?
Lisey how's you, 9dpo?
I just had a random cry lol ! I'm so broody & everyone around me is getting a puppy, more announcements on fb and I know that we have such a positive plan & with wedding & honeymoon coming up we can't have a puppy wouldn't be fair & we have already said when we get outr baby & I'm off then we will
I'm just feeling v broody right now, want to fill the house with animals to look after x x

 

[FBTTN8079]

Oh we have also had a chat and as the doctors say natural conception is highly unlikely so for the next few weeks we r going to hold the temping & opks take the pressure off and just bd for the sheer love of it x

I like this idea!!! Not an addict or anything honestly!!

My situation is still the same. Brown when I wipe until last night when it was slightly pink then this morning and all today NOTHING. I am questioning my ov date as I only belieed that from FF & the fact that my last 3 cycles were regular 28/29 days. Looking at my chart I think I may have ovulated 7 days after FF said I did which would make me 10DPO. Basically I have NO idea lol

Captains log- at 17.30 hours 80 mg of soy taken shitting myself cus it says only take 1 tablet per day and iv just had 2 , god knows how people do 200 mg of it that means taking 5 tablets u would feel like ur talking an overdose! So sitting and twiddling thumbs and waiting 4 hot flushes and headaches 2 start !!
Sugar mayb u should test !!!

 

[Bethyboo87]

I had the really weak ones from Holland and Barrett - did not feel comfortable taking seven tablets in one go. It better have worked because otherwise it's nine next month! Hope they work for you, Andrea! I'm 9dpo now so will know if it's worked in a few days (probs not, let's be honest!) xx

I took 200mg the last 2 days out of the 5! It's not the best thing in the world and I also saw that on the label about 1 tablet but I think thats there to warn people who are using it to keep things in check? They Should make a tablet that is worth 100mg but I haven't found them anywhere yet!

I only have one IC cheapie left after this cycle Going to try and wait a couple of days to see what happens...I don't feel any different so I am not holding out hope...Just think my PCOS has reared its ugly head again after 3 months seemingly fine

Hope ur pcos isn't back hun xx

 

[Bethyboo87]

No side effects, took it before bed so nothing. All good so far. Thanks hun, I'm just praying my temps stay up over the next few days xx

 

[Sugarpop]

I followed the pregnancy centre thread to a tee last time...started at 80mg and built it up slowly. Think I'll go for 120mg x 2 days, 1 day at 160 and then 2 at 200mg this time / if this time ever shows its ugly face! It can't hurt to start slow and build up though I'm sure! Everyones different and I've read stories of people only using 80mg and it working!

Apparently it is half the strength of climid and you use 50mg of that so it makes sense to use at least 100mg of Soy.

 

[stacesl3]

Hey you crazy soy ladies

No news here, started poas today! No line yet though, next few days though i reckon.
