Hello,
I now have an early scan booked for the 16th Dec, two weeks today, I have been assured it is early enough at 7-8 weeks that if it is in the wrong place I wont lose the tube. Fingers crossed, trying not to be too paranoid about every little twinge i feel - easier said than done.
Donna
Donna I wish you all the luck in the world. I’ll keep everything crossed for you!
Today I visited the doctors, I’ve had my referral to have my remaining tube checked and both overies. Just got to await my appointment date now, the doctor thinks it should be before Christmas.
I also found out my testosterone levels are low… Is that an issue in TTC? Doctor didn’t seem phased by it, but she did recommend taking some vitamin D as it wasn’t low but can help a pregnancy along. I’ve never taken vitamins so I trust what she said is correct? I don’t want to take anything that would harm me TTC.
Baby dust to you all x
Hi Ladies,
I hope your run up to Christmas isn’t looking too busy! On the issue of vitamins, I know we’re not to recommend anything here, but usually the chemist / pharmacy stocks pregnancy and breast feeding miltivitamins (which contain folate), as well as a range of D vitamins. There’s one in Australia that most Drs recommend, so ask your Dr.
My specialist appt. went well, she was very thorough and friendly, ordered a bunch of new tests for hubby & I. It’s so expensive! Worth the effort though, so we’ll stick with it. She wants to check me out for endometrioma on my left ov, and PCOS. So hopefully there’s some good news about treatments.
All the very best for your scan Donna! I’ll be thinking of you.
Blessings. X
Hi there
I’d love to join you all. I’m waiting for my FET which will be either 13th or 16th December I think. Currently on Progynova & Synarel. Really really not looking forward to the 2WW - partly because it’s Christmas & partly because I had an ectopic (& surgery) 3 months ago & it’s just made everything much more difficult and more emotional. There’s a lot riding on this as I feel I am running out of time & out of embryos . . .
Hi corinnek welcome I hope your stay is a short and sweet one
Donna I’m glad your scan is all booked in and keep fingers crossed for you
Chez that progress and hopfully you will get the answers that you need
Everything here is pretty much the same Im in the tww but think I ovulated at the weekend when I was away so not holding out much hope
xx
Welcome, Corinnek, I think we can all relate to your experience in our own way, and I’m deeply sorry for your loss.
Hopefully we can be some encouragement to you, even though we’re just ordinary ladies with a common story.
I had my blood tests today, results in 2 weeks which will make the future a little clearer with any luck.
Tww- trying to stay sane! All the best girls.

Hi ladies,
Lovely to see lots of positivity and people starting to get some answers and moving on with a plan - really happy you’re getting there now Chez, I’ll keep everything crossed for this TWW that you won’t even need the results of all them tests
Just thought I’d best check in and let you know where I’m up to as you were all so lovely and supportive when I got my BFP last month. Well I had my 6 week scan last weds and it was in the uterus - couldn’t believe it! Back tomorrow to hopefully see the heartbeat so panicking massively now! I was supposed to see the midwife for my booking appointment today but the weather gods had caused a motorway closure so couldn’t get there - totally gutted so now waiting until 2nd jan and trying not to be too paranoid about every tiny niggle or cramp - much easier said than done though! :-/
Anyway I’m keeping everything crossed for us all in this run up to Christmas that we get more bfps - sending lots of love and blessings to you all xxx
Ilovebarney that is great news im so pleased and keeping my fingers crossed for a happy healthy pregnancy for u
Chez two weeks is no time (so i keep telling myself) hopfully itll flt by
Xx
Ilovebarney that’s great new! So happy for you! I know saying it is easier than doing it but try and relax stress isn’t got for you or baby! I really wish you all the luck in the world!
Well my happy news over going forward after all fertility tests being ok, my recent smear test come back not so good! So awaiting further tests to see what’s going on, but trying to think positive as getting this sorted may help us while TTC, may explain the miscarriages ect, (May not but my way of looking forward)
Still seems like 1 step forward 3 backwards!
Life’s so dam annoying at times!
Looking forward though, trying not to stress it’s not worth it,
Baby dust to you all x
Ahhh shibhon i hope every thing is ok and goes well, i know how worrying it is as ive had loads of abnormal smears and swing between having smears every 6 months to 2 years, only one did i have to have treatment from my expirence they are very very carful with abnormal smears and like to check everything fingers crossed they give u answers quickly hun .
Im now really really bored i the tww (paitence not a stong point) evey slightly icky feeling my mind goes in to over drive, saterday cant come quick enough
How is everyone getting on?
Sarah xx
Every twinge makes us think too much! I hope you have some good news soon Sarah, the patient waiting is tough!
I got AF today, which I expected, but I didn’t expect it until Friday! Normally this wouldn’t bother me but I had my progesterone tested at day 21, and now it looks like I took that test too late. Poo! I hope the timing isn’t too critical.
How are you holding up Shibhon?
Hi ladies. I haven’t been on the board for a while now - it looks different :? ! Anyway after a few years of on/off trying, we decided earlier this year that enough was enough and stopped trying. Also I turned 40 this year and just wanted the stress out of my life. It wasn’t a decision taken lightly but it was one I was happy with and life has been good since. I have friends/family with children so I still get my baby fix. My cycles have been regular at 25-26 days for the past 6 months without any problems. However, this month I’ve got to 28 days without any regular AF symptoms whatsoever :? :? ! Due to being very busy and OH working away we’ve only had sex (I don’t call it BD anymore) twice in the last 3 weeks and because I don’t track OV anymore I’m not sure the exact dates. I was sure AF was imminent last weekend because I was so hungry but 5 days later nothing. No cramps, no sore boobs - nothing of the normal AF symptoms I get. I do have an ache in my very lower back going round to my hip and mild twinges on my right ectopic side (no tube). Not painful - just a bit achy like I’ve pulled something. I have felt more tired this week but I have been busy. I really don’t know what to think. I gave up a long time ago thinking every ache, pain and twinge was a PG sign but this is really odd. My gut is telling me to hold off because AF will show up (call it old intuition) & also I’ve convinced myself that I can’t possibly get pregnant but part of me is thinking ‘sh** - what if’! I don’t really have symptoms of anything so I’m a bit confused! xx
Hi Meche I hope your Ok? the second guessing is a nightmare and sometimes it can be really tough when AF symptoms are so frustratingly similar to early pregnancy symptoms, periods can be late for loads of reasons a couple of months ago I made it to day 40 till AF showed. I think you should take a test just to put your mind at ease either way it is the only way to actually know.
I’m now very impatiently waiting for Saturday to test, feeling a little odd but with a metal nauseous taste in my mouth however I think it may all be in my head and I have had these symptoms before AF so wait and see. I think I am actually doing my own head in
Hope everyone is getting on well
Sarah
Thank you Sarah. It’s odd you say about the metal taste because a few times today I’ve felt like I’ve had blood in my mouth :? ! I think in the past my cycle has got to day 30 before but that is the longest it has ever been. I’m also very aware that I’m 40 and ‘things’ can change. You’re right though - the only way to put my mind at ease is to test. I’ll let things lie for a couple of days and hope AF shows up but if she doesn’t I’ll test on Saturday. I haven’t thought about babies and being pregnant for months and months - I really don’t miss it!!
Good luck for Saturday - everything crossed for you
Michelle
Hi all
Sorry I went AWOL in November, my phone died and I haven’t managed to get on the laptop at all. Meche - all those symptoms you describe sound very positive, you’ll have had enough of finger crossing so I won’t
AFM I’m on CD6 and waiting to start the OPK’s again. My luteal phase seems to be short again only 9 days.
Lashings of Christmas baby dust to you all
Tedx
Well i tested and it was negative so now just have to wait for af
Hope everyone else is geting on better
Sarah xx
I’m sorry to hear that Sarah, I hope your run up to Chridtmas isn’t too hectic, and allows for a day or two of down time.
