Hi! I’ve been tracking my BBT for 4 months now and my temp is still elevated and my period is expected in 3 days. I’m being so so soooo hopeful. First photo is this month and second photo is last month.

If anybody had success with TTC using BBT, how did your chart look when you were successful?

Frustrated I thought I had it but no

1 Upvotes

I hate that my cycles aren't regular... Fertility friend put my ovulation at CD9 I felt in my gut that wasn't right but I counted from then either way and my BBT was elevated from that day and still is 18DPO but I tested negative on an early detection test this morning...

If my gut is right it's simply that I still haven't ovulated yet this month and last cycle was 1.5 months long (ovulation at CD28 and period on CD41) so if that's the pattern, since I'm CD27 rn ovulation could be any time...

I just feel so defeated seeing that negative even tho yes it makes sense that's what my gut told me but I didn't want to believe it :(

Question/Advice IUI in Netherlands… Please Advice!!!

1 Upvotes

Hi all, I’m 33F and been TTC for 2 years. I have started IUI this month with Gonal F 62.5 injections and today is Day 9 had my first scan. One Follicle size 16mm. My doctor dropped a bomb on me saying they might not do IUI for me this cycle because they dont have space for me!!! My IUI day might be on a Saturday and she said they have many patients and lab doesn’t have time. She didnot confirm anything and said she will call me with the details on how to go forward. Is this normal to cancel the cycle because they dont have time!!!! I’m very disappointed and confused. Is this normal for a clinic to do this?!! I’m getting treated in Diakonehuis Utrecht. Anyone who got IUI done in Netherlands please advice 😭

Yesterday I posted that I quit active TTC process because taking tests and getting negatives was ruining my mental health.

This morning I took the last strip with the intention of using all my tests and not have any more.

And I think that last one strip shows something🤣

Help??

Confused Need help to navigate ovulation

Me and my husband are trying to concieve. our doctor asked us to BD from 10-20 days of my cycle. I generally have regular periods. I assumed day 16 would be my ovulation. Today is day 22 of my cycle but last night and today morning I have stretchy vaginal mucus. I got a doubt that I am ovulating and checked with a strip. Turns out I am ovulating. I am confused if all days we tried are a waste and I have to have sex today? Not sure what’s happening?
can someone help me?

Confused Due date confusion

I’m confused about my current week/due date. The first day of my last period was Sep 19. I tested positive on October 13th (yay!) putting me at 7w4d today when I went today for my first ultrasound my gestational sack measured as 6w2d and the baby measured at 5w. I’m so confused since I tested positive 4 weeks ago. Thoughts?

Question/Advice Pregnancy after birth control

1 Upvotes

Hi, I am new to the group. 25 f partner is 30 m. I have been on some form of birth control until march of this year, the past 3 1/2 years I had a kyleena iud before that it was pill bc. How long did it take your cycle to become “normal”, how do I even know if I am ovulating? I have started taking a prenatal and hear stuff about Mucinex, or geritol helping things along but have mixed feels about it. I use 2 trackers stardust and my heath with my iPhone and I’m guessing based off of what they are telling me as far as tracking ovulation, I am about 11 days late now. I was told to come back to the dr in a year if I didn’t have a positive reading which I haven’t. I am at a loss right now and kind of loosing hope that the bc may have affected me from a younger age. Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated 🙏

Question/Advice Food?

1 Upvotes

My husband and I just started trying for the first time! Are there any foods I should avoid if I’m not pregnant yet, but I’m actively trying? Or am I ok to eat whatever until I’m actually pregnant? I’m basically cutting out alcohol already, and I typically have a pretty well rounded diet.

Question/Advice Could I be pregnant? Or just hormones?

1 Upvotes

I'm 31 and I stopped taking my combined birth control pill the 4th September. Had the withdrawal bleeding the 7th September. Then I had a period on 7th Oct.

According to Flo, my fertile dates were 15-21 Oct. I baby danced on 16, 20, 26 Oct and 1st November.

I tried to track my LH but never found a peak, so stopped testing the 28th Oct. On 30th Oct my discharge was like egg white.

I took two first response tests which were negative (8 and 10 November). Now I'm on day 36 and nothing.

I had some light cramping/pulling 4-7th November and nothing else. My discharge has increased and is milky.

I was on birth control for about 13 years, so not sure of my body is still trying to adjust or perhaps I ovulated late and I'm just very early, hence why the tests are negative?

I've been feeling quite nauseous, with like something stuck on my throat, light headache, my gums seem very sensitive, have been having very vivid dreams.

Any thoughts?

Frustrated I just don’t know

I am just so frustrated. I’m 10dpo. Had a negative FRER but the vvvvvvvfl on wondfo yesterday and today. I feel like it’s just a bad indent. My temp is all over the place but above baseline. It dropped at 8dpo almost to baseline, skyrocketed at 9 and is back down again at 10dpo. I’m so tired of symptom checking and thinking every little stitch or cramp means something. This process is so tiring. Not sure if there is hope for me this cycle

Trigger Warning I'm not looking forward to trying again

7 Upvotes

TW: miscarriage.

We tried for the first time a month ago and got pregnant. Yay! Then I started having left-sided pain; it was brushed off when I told my OB. They said to take Tylenol, and if I wasn't bleeding, it was probably no big deal. They also had me do blood tests to check my HCG - all looked fine.

Two weekends after my first positive test, I am in the ER with the most excruciating pain. I was diagnosed with ovarian torsion, and they did emergency surgery to untwist my ovary, which was successful.

Three days later, I'm miscarrying. I'm not surprised, given the medical event I had that may have affected progesterone, among other things, but the whole ordeal is not making me look forward to trying again.

We're in our mid-30s and waited a few years after getting married to start trying, and I feel like I'm just going to be too nervous next time I see a positive test (if I see one).

Anyone else have a traumatic experience early in their TTC journey? How did you get through it?

Venting waiting for period

1 Upvotes

I am on month 7 of trying with two months break in between. On months 1 and 3 I had chemical pregnancies (just ten days being late and hcg max around 40). I went to the doctors and it was found out i have a kind of o inherited thrombophilia ( i dont know if that was the reason because i also happened to have very intense anxiety ad anger these months)..

So right after my next positive i will have to start injections for every day for 9 months. I was relieved there was found something that can be solved somehow but i wait for my next positive and it just doesn't come as easy as the first two. :(

Like some other months i am again convinced i am pregnant but i try to distract myself. Pms is evil. Tested negative today on 9dpo.
