I don’t tell any of my friends that we are trying because of that very reason. Those without kids don’t get it & those with kids got pregnant each time they tried. They can never understand.I think if that's what she meant she would have said that. No part of what she said indicated to me that she understands how I am feeling. It was more bragging in my opinion. Hope I'm wrong but
Oh gosh it’s the worst isn’t itI had a hot date with Wanda too!nurse has the cheek to take my blood pressure straight afterwards and ask me if I was anxious as it was a little high as if I hadn’t just been spread eagle on a table face height with her 30 seconds before hand
WelcomeI might join this thread - I’ve been lurking for a while as I waited to finish up on the pill and this looks like it’s one of the most welcoming and friendly TTC chats I’ve seen (some forums are a bit scary, at least for people just starting TTC).
I am on cycle 1, 4DPO, am 33 and I have diagnosed endometriosis stage 2. I have been advised to start testing for ovulation and temping etc initially my first cycle was just meant to be me learning how to do it etc then I got very positive OPKs and my BBT shot up so we decided let’s just start trying but now I’m in the TWW and as much as I tell myself I shouldn’t be disappointed if I get a BFN next week, I know I will be and start panicking.
I am struggling a lot with the hormone fluctuations and my endo has flared up during ovulation and currently (I have bad nausea which I know is just the progesterone) and I can’t take any of the anti inflammatories I normally have
Anyone who went off the pill - do the fluctuations get better? I don’t think this happened the last time I was off the pill in my mid 20s

Yes I’ve posted in the thread about it. At first I was late for a week and now my cycle is slightly longer and I’m bleeding for less daysHave any of you had your period delayed or gone strange after having the vaccine?
Thinking of you, sorry things aren’t going so well right nowFound out last week (on our wedding anniversary) that the second cycle of Letrozole has failed. Now time to induce a AF and then start injections instead which I am not looking forward too! I have failed to ovulate with meds twice now so really not feeling optimistic I can't keep thinking if this doesn't work what are the options? Is it straight to IVF, which is no one wants to actually do.
It's just a lot, constantly! No relief whatsoever.
Oh wow. My first came slightly early but with my 2nd I think its now messed it eight up so I'm a bit worried.Yes I’ve posted in the thread about it. At first I was late for a week and now my cycle is slightly longer and I’m bleeding for less daysI had my second jab in March so ages ago now

Welcome and good luck!Another newbie hereI'm 29 and me and my partner have only just started trying this past month or so. I have PCOS and Hyperprolactinemia = the most erratic cycles and I'm not even fully sure I ovulate, so I'm aware it could all be a challenge. However I am remaining cautiously optimistic as I know it is the earliest of days and one shouldn't assume! Has anyone else here got that happy little combo of hormonal fuck yous? lol. A few of my friends have PCOS and have managed to conceive naturally (albeit after a fair while) but I haven't met anyone else with hyperprolactinemia/both. My best friend with PCOS actually just found out she is pregnant with MoMo twins
I'm trying to lose some weight to see if that helps the PCOS but really trying to avoid medication for the prolactin levels unless they get worse/conceiving proves impossible.
Anyway, it's so lovely to meet you all, you seem such a friendly bunch (I second the above poster - some other TTC forums are downright scary! lol).
P.S. I'm another one who can confirm when me and my partner first did the deed without protection we both went "Oh shit what did we just do?"

I always think this around celebrations and then it's extra disappointing. I want to wrap up the box and give it to him. I can't remember where I saw it but there was a video online, I think it was a spoof where the girl put the test in a cake and the guy went crazy that she'd peed on it and would have let him eat it. It's a bit obvious and crap acting but it might lighten the mood a bitSending you lots of love!
I decided my wedding anniversary (also last week) was the best time to take a test after AF didn’t show (I’m not regular in the slightest so don’t know why I got my hopes up) BFN, was such a kick in the teeth as I thought it would be a nice present for my hubby.
I'm not sure whether Clomid is something I can take, it has never been mentioned and I think they prefer to use Letrozole as it has less side effects. Yes both cycles with Letrozole, second cycle on a higher dose too.Thinking of you, sorry things aren’t going so well right nowHave you done both cycles with letrozole, is clomid an option to try for you?
I have found there are a lot of accounts on Instagram who talk through their TTC journeys with inducing ovulation, trigger shots, ivf, etc - if you search the TTC or ivf hashtags, you might be able to find some stories of people who have already been down that route and see what steps they took first. Hope you get some relief soon xx
Sending you so much love.Hi ladies. I am fairly certain this pregnancy will not be progressing and I will be back with you all shortly, I just wanted to update you all.
I wrote last week that my tests weren’t getting darker and my CB digi was also stying in 1-2 weeks. I’m sad to say that my tests have still not darkened and this morning are nearly negative with very faint lines. CB digi has now said 1-2 weeks for 10 days. I know people say not to look at test darkness but for my tests to have been dark and now be coming back almost negative at 19dpo with multiple brands, it’s not looking good.
My symptoms have faded from last week - I know that means nothing but coupled with the tests, I am feeling fairly certain this will not result in a successful pregnancy.
I am obviously devastated and have spent the whole morning since testing just inconsolable. I never allowed myself to feel too happy as I was sure something was wrong, and I guess I was right. My husband has been so happy though and he is just crushed so I just feel incredibly guilty for his sadness, even though I know there’s nothing I could have done.
I am basically just waiting for the physical symptoms to start, which I’m pretty terrified about to be honest. I’m only 4+5 going by ovulation (or 6+2 from LMP) so I’m hoping it won’t be too physically painful. I have not gone through a loss before so I don’t know what to expect. This would have been our first baby.
I am rambling and I’m sorry for offloading here, but I didn’t tell anyone about the pregnancy and have no one to speak with about it, just feel like l can’t move forward at the moment.
