NOV Testing

[tfahn]

Don't worry mt9178, I just turned 39 yesterday and we have been trying for baby#2 for the last 7 months. Hopefully it will just take longer since we are older, I believe it will happen. Think Positive thoughts!!

Hi purple, so glad your specialist came to the party and you now have something to work with

Your charts do look very similar momamia fingers crossed it's a great early sign!

Mt9178 sorry you are feeling down, it must be so disheartening, I hope the clomid can help you get your BFP this month xx

So I posted a long winded thread today basically asking what I should do to try make this cycle work and Atomic answered with an answer that made me more confident going into this cycle. So we will be attempting every three days after AF finishes, little bit apprehensive about adding in possibly an extra attempt but as she pointed out being on LE for 26 weeks now and this being our last month for a bit it just has to happen now. Anyone else doing every 3 days or heard of someone getting their DD doing e3d? The stats don't seem to be there for it on the stats doc but I'm assuming e3d is kinda like 2 attempts in fertile window which is about 65% compared to one attempt which is 70% so I'm happy enough to gamble with that 5% - I think!
Also I mentioned in that thread that I believe I have a tilted cervix - like when I check it I can kinda reach past it and feel the OS facing my rear end. She said that I could try have our attempt and lay flat for 5 mins but instead of J&D like I've been doing try laying on my tum for a further 10 minutes and thats helped other ladies with tilted cervix get pg. Please tell me a tilted cervix is common enough lol. To conceive our boys I elevated my hips for maybe 30 mins after every attempt (DH thought I was crazy but both boys were one hit wonders so there had to be method to my madness lol)

Titled cervix/uterus is pretty common hopper. I have one too. I think I just raised my hips while lying on my back each time I got pregnant so maybe you should try that again. 26 weeks on LE will be an excellent sway for you but you need to make sure the sperm are actually getting to where they are needed I guess. Good luck!

Sounds good hopper, mine also seems to be tilted and I had no probs getting preg straight away with my 3 boys - although I also propped my hips with them too, I haven't been doing that so far this time....

Thanks purple! Never noticed before - well I noticed but I didn't think it was a "thing" until I started checking my CP and reading about others CPs and realised mine was a bit different lol. Yeah I think I might put a cushion under my rear for 5 mins this cycle and then try flipping to my tummy like Atomic suggested and hopefully something will work. Half afraid of doing anything that I did to get pg on our boys but at the same time if the swimmers aren't getting in there then there's no chance of getting pregnant so my sway is kinda useless I suppose lol xx

Lol afraid of copying what may have helped you fall before I think that was my thinking up til now, anything that I felt helped on the boys was definitely a no no but am thinking I have changed my lifestyle SO drastically it surely must count for something. All I need is one pink swimmer to get in there and that there is my dream come to life

Just thought I would chime in regarding a tilted uterus. Mine is retroverted (think of it like a slide), and I always got pregnant when I lay on my stomach. I didn't realize it helped until I wasn't getting pregnant when TTCing this guy.

I would try that! Things like this don't sway- diet, exercise, and # of attempts are what sway.


DS1🏼, DS2, DS3 Jan. '16 I'll sway for a DD for my DH!!

Yep your right I am a bit scared too lol but I think PP is right it prob doesn't sway. We had a go last night and instead of jumping up straight away I did lay on my tummy for about 10 mins... Maybe my next 4D attempt I will prop if I'm feeling game lol

Thanks XX! Can I just pick your brain on the topic - when you say to think of it like a slide. Do you mean say you are standing up and your cervix "should" be straight down but it curves to the back - is that what you mean? Cause that's how I would describe mine, if that's an accurate description lol. It makes sense I guess, cause if I lay on my back and don't have hips elevated the sperm is just gonna pool behind my cervix cause it can't reach it! But with elevated hips or lying on my tummy it changes the playing field entirely! Oh wow I am actually excited about trying this month!!
