Thread : Lucky Number 13 take 2. TTC#1 The one where AF can kiss our arse!

Hello may

Thanks lyssie we will give it another good go thus month for sure. Sore boobs is totally on track for a bfp - really hope you get yours tomorrow

Happy Easter weekend all xx

Jem!!! I really hope this is your month!!!!! I am holding out to test tomorrow, which will be 15dpo according to Clue. We can be test buddies! Still no AF! My breasts finally started hurting this morning, so intensely bad, and I keep getting a weird mildly painful pulsing feeling on my left side in pelvis.

Ever I ordered the tablets from Amazon. They're produced by Lindens. The pack was 100 x 1000mg and I've been taking two a day. I've also been taking one maca root tablet a day.

I am naturally very sceptical about it, but who knows? The anecdotal evidence seems to be pretty strong...

Hi May

Welcome May!

Thanks Ni I have stopped tempting and this has helped reduce the TTC anxiety a lot
Snow one of my best friends is moving to Boston. I might have to visit Massachusetts again soon. I love it there.
Thanks starky you are pretty awesome too
Inspector what dose of AC are you taking? And where did you buy it?

Hello ladies, mind if I join you?

I'm May
34
This is cycle 3
And I'm on CD20

I was diagnosed with PCOS years and years ago, and an internal scan (ouch!) showed my left ovary isn't a viable egg producer (double ouch!) as it's almost completely enveloped with cysts. I don't believe I ovulate every month, and this is the most likely cause!

I ovulated early this month, on CD11 or CD12, so am desperately trying not to symptom spot in this TWW. I've tested and had a BFN this morning, but when I've checked my test wasn't very sensitive at 20miU/ml.. Not sure I want to waste too many money on this new hobby though! Any suggestions for cheap, reliable tests?? AF isn't due until around the 1st, so I've got lots of time to waste money peeing on sticks

Sorry Jem, make sure you hit the pub bank holiday style at least.

I'm exactly the same Bluebird! I was the same school year as Rory so totally identified and now I'm only a year younger than Lorelei. How time flies...! So excited for brand new episodes later this year (hence rewatching)

starky I love the new blog post
Have you tried putting shoes in the freezer - it kills off bacteria and ergo the smell.

Thanks girls xx what can you do but look onwards and upwards.

Pug that sounds like a lovely place of rest for your dad. As a fellow spurs fan I would forgive the red rose petals :) xx

Pug you dad's memorial sounds like it was very touching. How incredibly sad though . I hope you can find solace in having somewhere to 'be' with him now.

Jem, so sorry AF arrived in the end. I hope you are feeling happier and get to enjoy the long weekend without being too upset.

Ni, thanks for your message. AF arrived today!!

So, I obviously can't say that it was because of the Agnus Castus, but.... it's a bit of a coincidence. I know that the only other time I took a break from the pill (maybe 12-ish years ago) I didn't get a period for the whole 6 months, so for it to arrive a few days after starting the AC is odd. Anyway, whatever caused it I shall definitely be continuing to take it until/if I get a BFP.

I didn't have any physical signs AF was going to arrive at all. No cramps, no PMS, no spots, no sore boobs, nothing. Just hoping now this means the next cycle goes normally and we can get excited about giving it a real go in a couple of weeks

I came home early from work as have lurgy - another horrid night's sleep and mega sore throat.... Took me ages to get home in part because I went home via eyebrow place and hace face de-forested 😷

Takinig it easy on sofa and I plan to sleep all day tomorrow if that feels right, so there!

jem really sorry my lovely af is such a bugger :(

island you can still make your millions by refining your concept

jem sending hugs your way time to break out the wine

lisathegreek i loved the article on fertility apps, really interesting, although gutted to find out the basal thermometer that automatically syncs with the app on your phone has already been made, i thought i was going to invent that and make my millions!

Sorry for AF Jem Hope you have some good easter eggs in to munch on and

Putting Dad's ashes with his memorial stone was ok, my mum read out a lovely poem and I put the cask into the ground and we scattered some rose petals over it, although I'm sure he'll be cursing us ad the petals were red and he was a huge Tottenham fan lol. I like that I now have somewhere to go and see him and he's looking down a hill too.

I unfortunately have to work tomorrow and easter Monday so it's just the usual 2 day weekend for me.

Sorry jem it really is a kick in the teeth when af and all her horribleness arrives.

irregular I'm I'm obsessed with Gilmore girls!! I started watching it when I was a teenager and identified with Rory. It's weird watching it now and realising I'm almost lorelai's age!

Thanks x period pain is such a insult added to injury :( I am wincing it is so bad!

Sorry jem xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hugs to you Jem, sorry AF got you.

I'm trying not to symptom spot as it's still way too early - at 5 DPO at the moment and so far I can't say I've had any symptoms at all anyway. Easter's coming at the right time though :)

Chocolate is the best medicine* definitely hep!* I know have to stop symptom spotting

feefs chocolate is good medicine,..... oh sorry, guess thats not what you meant ?

i have given up symptom spotting so no ideas from me.

I have had AF cramps that early, I don't know when implantation could happen. I am rather useless help I am afraid!

Had a cr**py week, but Am off on easter holidays in 5 minutes so looking up!

Yes it's uncanny isn't it?

Ah well. I'll wallow a bit today as I'm feeling really sad about it, but will try and pick myself up to enjoy the Bank holiday weekend.

Sorry jem Sending hugs, wine and multiple Easter Eggs.

really sorry jem

Nothing like using up a pregnancy test to bring on AF eh jem! Hope you're okay. At least it's Easter weekend! Plenty of chocolate around!!

Terrible cramps today 7DPO? Any ideas?
