It's been a little while since I posted in here. I'm currently in my cycle using Letrozole. I got a call from the doctor's office that this cycle, including the next cycle is going to be it for us. Then we would have to be sent to a reproductive specialist, which is not an option for us. We have a 2-year-old right now, and if the cycle works, I become pregnant, it's going to be born right before my son's 3rd birthday. I have been ovulating the past cycles, but did not get pregnant. We figured since we're coming near the end, we need to do everything we can possibly on our side of it. I've looked into home semination kits, or even just syringes with a menstrual cup. Has anybody tried this?

What's your BMI as you've said you're closer to under than overweight? I think ideally for conception it's between 20-25. I seem to remember the Flo app I think giving daily diet advice for conception if that helps?
I think it’s dead on 20 now, but between the ages of 18-25ish it was around 17.
Think it is going to be our window this weekend which works out well as we're both off from work...but my husband is coming down with a cold and I just know he isn't going to be well enough to DTD 
I feel your pain. I think I’m out already this month because my husband has been unwell too.Think it is going to be our window this weekend which works out well as we're both off from work...but my husband is coming down with a cold and I just know he isn't going to be well enough to DTD
I think I’m about 4dpo but not holding out much hope for this cycle so haven’t really been paying attention to the TWW which has kinda been nice!
I am also 4DPO according to Premom but I didn’t track this month so not sure! I feel like I’ll never relax again - I over think it whether I track or not and even if I know it wasn’t possible this cycle I still obsess
I'm 12DPO and promised myself I wouldn't test until I missed a period after last month's chemical. Obviously I caved today and used a premom strip which aren't the best for showing early but I'm sure I see something and I'm so nervous, I really can't bare the thought of another chemical and I could kick myself for testing early when there was no outcome on the test which would have reassured me!
Hi ladies, I’ve been taking some time away from this thread for a while. I think I’m currently 1DPO, the last two months AF didn’t arrive whatsoever which made me feel really low and discouraged, probably the worst I’ve felt during my TTC journey. This is also the first cycle that I'm choosing not to ovulation test, however I'm convinced I ovulated yesterday/day before as I’ve had really intense symptoms yesterday: dull aching pains around where my left ovary is, lower back ache and even felt lightheaded yesterday (and not to forget just being really moody - feeling really sorry for my OH!) We DTD Saturday & yesterday too so I’m really really hoping that we’ve caught it right this month 
Trying not to think to much about it!
Trying not to think to much about it!
Confirmed yesterday's strip test with a first response and it's a clear positive, also darker than it was last month at the same point in my cycle so hoping this one sticks 
Did anyone have continuous symptoms from ovulation through to AF/BFP? Usually my ovulation symptoms fade away pretty quickly but I’m currently 2/3DPO and still experiencing pulling around the left side of my pelvis/ovary, extremely sore/sensitive nipples and I thought I was going to throw up through the night. Just wondering if any of you have ever experienced this before? I’ve given up trying to figure out my body!
I don’t get very strong symptoms but right now I’m still getting some egg white CM and it’s been at least 5DPO maybe even more .. no idea what it could be! Also feeling a bit sick too, I did read somewhere that you can have implantation nausea but don’t know how common it is.
I had zero symptoms in October. Didn't even feel ovulation, one sharp stabbing pain about 6dpo I would estimate? Thought nothing of it at all... Only symptom I really had was I was completely irrational about 11dpo so took a test and had the faintest positive. I've definitely had more 'symptoms' on bfn months. I really don't think you go off them
I'm so bummed ladies, I have to remove myself from the running for the next 6 months+ due to other life stuff right now. It's like I know it's the sensible thing to do, but my heart wants to keep trying just incase! If I actually did get pregnant in the next 6 months though it would be farrrr from ideal, so I'm trying to do the responsible thing. Head Vs heart!
I think I’m having a chemical 
well.. I know I am.
I feel so stupid for getting so excited in the first place. We told our parents as it’s our first baby/pregnancy and I wouldn’t be able to keep it away from them as we see them so often. My husbands had to go to work today so I’m home alone to ride this out, I can’t stop crying
. I just really want to have a baby… how soon can we start trying again?

I’m so sorry, I’ve had 2 chemicals the last 3 months and I know how heart breaking it is. Don’t feel bad that you told people, having support is so important and also when people know what you’re going through it stops a lot of comments that can be hurtful unintentionally (eg when will you be having a baby then, better hurry up, etc).I think I’m having a chemical

You can try again as soon as you stop bleeding but please make sure you give yourself time to work through the emotions you’re feeling and are 100% ready. I know the feeling of just wishing you were pregnant again is so strong but you need to put your well being first
Thinking of you and sending hugs. There is a very supportive baby loss and miscarriage thread if you would like to discuss the way you’re feeling, lots of lovely ladies there.Just wanted to reiterate what @JLXRD said really. Please don't put any pressure on yourself. It's heartbreaking.. Like @JLXRD I've also had two chemicals and it's devastating. Remember, a loss is loss and you need that support around you. I haven't told my parents about mine and I regret it so much. I feel like I can't approach the subject now either. Take the support, they will be there for you. It took my body a while to get over them, so don't feel any pressure. They say you can start DTD again once the bleeding stops, that's what I did, but it delayed my ovulation for over a week. xxI think I’m having a chemical

I'm in a very similar situation to you. I'm having some very similar symptoms and feeling a little how I was the month I was pregnant (sadly ended in a chemical) so I'm hoping it is a positive sign. I'm trying not to read into it too much as it's such early days, although it's so hard not to!
I'm so sorry to hear thisI think I’m having a chemical

don't feel stupid for getting excited as it's normal to feel that way and as others have said, hopefully it will help having a support network around you of people that know about it. I also spoke to my doctor after my chemical who was really lovely and talked me through it and trying again if that's something you might also find helpful
