@delilah7 aww hun. We are all going through the wait with you.

@purplestar9 its good you are fairly regular so you know where you're at. I'm currently cd11, due to ovulate around cd17 (Wed ish) so gonna try dt lots for the next week or so! My cycles have been 21, 24, then 25 or 26 days since coming off the pill in Feb. I was always 27 days like clockwork before the pill, so I'm hoping I may get back to that.

@validuser ah yes I have seen pregnacare in boots, but went for boots own. It was more the folic acid I was bothered about, as it's evidence based, but if the other vits lengthen my cycle (ok, luteal phase) a bit then bonus! I'm more of a "Well I eat enough vitamins in my diet anyway" kinda person in general life, but DH takes all sorts! Vitamin c, d, zinc, you name it! Also... wtf is going on with your cycle! I'm 95% convinced it's just not showing up strong enough yet... It's got to be a bfp soon?!

@mrsr16 have you noticed a difference with the supplements at all? What dpo are you?

@daisiesandpeonies thank you it's good to know there's others in the same situation! Walk in wardrobe sounds awesome! How long have you been there? I have already decided I'm turning one of the bedrooms into a yoga room, so can do some relaxation and stuff! We've been so busy with housey things I've not been to the gym for 2 weeks, let alone had time to relax :-( been soooo stressed!

What have you done that's worked for you? With you saying it's helped a bit? I'm really glad you have found some mindfulness helpful! I need to take my own advice and do it lol xxx

@cupcakesandglitter so sorry hun, cycle 1 is very early days, have yourself some chocolate, some alcohol and get some tlc from OH. There's nowt worse than seeing the red stuff, I'm sorry it feels like your MC before, that must be awful. Stick together @delilah7 I can't imagine how it feels xxx

ValidUser · 23/08/2018 23:22

Me too, @Patapouf!

If AF comes, I want gin. If not, I get a baby.

Right now, I'm not getting gin OR a baby. This displeases me.

Patapouf · 23/08/2018 23:17

Sorry glitter Flowers

valid I’d be going nuts if I was that late with no BFP, hope you get yours soon!

ValidUser · 23/08/2018 22:17

@cupcakesandglitter I'm sorry to hear that. X

@Delilah7 how are things? X

ValidUser · 23/08/2018 22:16

Coming up to a 31 day cycle. Never longer than 27 days.

Negative pregnancy tests. 13 dpo (12 at least according to OPKs).

Cracking up here! Just want to know.

MrsR16 · 23/08/2018 21:18

@cupcakesandglitter sorry to hear that lovely...

sunshine1987 · 23/08/2018 21:00

@cupcakesandglitter sorry lovely, sending love to you x

cupcakesandglitter · 23/08/2018 20:58

Thankyou all, I appreciate the support 💕

Delilah7 · 23/08/2018 20:46

@cupcakesandglitter we can do this together. ❤️❤️❤️

MrsReader · 23/08/2018 20:43

Aww sorry cupcakes 😢

purplestar9 · 23/08/2018 20:38

@cupcakesandglitter I'm so sorry for AF. Fingers crossed for next cycle 🤞🏻

cupcakesandglitter · 23/08/2018 20:35

@Delilah7 @Chivari @daisiesandpeonies thankyou x

I'm on cycle one - I don't think this is AF though. I've miscarried before and I know it's really early but this is what it feels like. 😩 I can't do this, I didn't think I'd be this bad but this is heartbreaking, and I'm only on month one.

I apologise for double messages if anyone is seeing them on other threads, it's easier to copy and paste

daisiesandpeonies · 23/08/2018 20:32

So sorry @cupcakesandglitter what cycle are you on?

Chivari · 23/08/2018 20:21

So sorry @cupcakesandglitter keep your chin up xx

Delilah7 · 23/08/2018 20:20

@cupcakesandglitter I'm sorry Hun if it is AF. :( I'll see you on the next cycle I'm sure!

cupcakesandglitter · 23/08/2018 20:17

So I'm out. Just been to the loo (first time in hours) and I had brown discharge which was odd. Wiped and there's blood so I think it's AF. Got massive painful cramping. Can't stop crying :(

purplestar9 · 23/08/2018 19:29

Catch up time! How is everyone?
I'm currently on CD31, 9DPO. 5 days till AF is due.
I've had very slight cramps (barely noticeable) but nothing else.

Delilah7 · 23/08/2018 17:47

@sunshine1987 probably just AF though! Xx

sunshine1987 · 23/08/2018 17:24

@Delilah7 yeah every time you post I think it sounds like you are pregnant x

daisiesandpeonies · 23/08/2018 17:14

@ValidUser my cycles have been between 29 and 40 days long since coming off the pill, they were getting gradually shorter and then my last one went back up to 35 days! I have no idea why 😭 It's really frustrating, particularly the time between AF and negative test. I'm hoping she's early again this month so I don't have to do a negative test!
@FlapJackered im so sorry that pure feeling down lovely, it's so hard isn't it? I'm fairly sure it wasn't my cycle this time as I'm getting PMS symptoms as usual, nothing feels different and I can't be bothered to do it again! All I can say is don't give up, try and believe it will happen I've been trying pre pregnancy mindfulness like @Crossfitgirl suggested and it's actually been really helpful
. @Crossfitgirl I've just done the same thing and moved into a bigger house. Seeing the empty rooms does depress me but I'm in the process of turning one into a walk in wardrobe, painted light pink, to make me feel happy!

Delilah7 · 23/08/2018 16:48

@sunshine1987 really? Xxx

sunshine1987 · 23/08/2018 16:10

@Delilah7 I still don't think you're out lovely. I honestly don't x

Delilah7 · 23/08/2018 14:03

Fed up of this Cm in knickers and watery shit though!!

MrsR16 · 23/08/2018 13:31

@ValidUser I'm using those as well and have been for the past 2 and a half months (knowing I was going to stop the pill sooner rather than later).

I've been getting aches and cramping in my abdomen and side for the last couple of days... thankfully it's settled a bit at the moment. I'm also thirsty all the time! Visiting the toilet far too often, but that's because I'm drinking lots... 😕 I'm not sure what to think! Haha

ValidUser · 23/08/2018 13:16

@Crossfitgirl pregnacare conception.

I've heard of some people having odd cycles with them, but other than being late it has been fine!
