Whichever one of you recommended Iliza, I love you! ❤️

MrsR16 · 10/09/2018 22:23

Well I'm just excited to be back in my own bed tonight! We've had a week and a bit on our sofa-bed waiting for carpet to be fitted! It's been fitted today and looks beautiful! More reason to jump on DH! 😂

RanchoRelaxo · 10/09/2018 22:09

Haha I hear you on the gym flapjackered I really should get back into running, just finding all the excuses not too at the moment which I know I shouldn't!

BambiOnIce80 · 10/09/2018 22:03

@Delilah7 it means I tried to get pregnant with the ex for 3 years and nothing happened - had every test under the sun and they couldn't find anything wrong with me. So they labelled me with infertility that they can't explain that isn't caused by any other disorders (that's the primary part). That was 5 years ago though, so god knows what my hormone levels are like now 🙄 As I say, trying to be optimistic but realistic at the same time... and have a plan 😉

FlapJackered · 10/09/2018 21:48

HUGE congratulations @Dimblebimble!! So many bfps! This is a great sign! 🎉🥂

@Delilah7 I am with you on the opk frustration! I am sure you will get your positive soon, mine could be a few weeks away though if last month is anything to go by. 🙄

I just jumped on DH! 🐎 He asked me if it was ovulation time and I told him no and he seemed happy that I initiated outside of fertile week which is good! (He even inputted it into the app!)
Now fertile week just needs to hurry the f up!

I am telling you all for accountabilities sake - I WILL go to the gym tomorrow!!! You have my permission to heckle me if I don't and cheer me if i do! 😂😂 🏃🏼‍♀️🏋🏼‍♂️🏊‍♀️

cupcakesandglitter · 10/09/2018 21:44

Oh god "be positive shithead" 😂😂😂 @Delilah7 you are fucking fabulous, we all need that inspo ✨

poodlepip · 10/09/2018 21:38

Haha aw gotta love staring at those sticks.

Didn't manage to seduce DH- he was barely snotty. I was very unsympathetic!

Got grumpy and gave him a biology lesson so he know about ovulation now. Also he seems to think he we do it when he has a cold there will be something wrong with the baby?? Oh dear.

@RanchoRelaxo going to try your tip tomorrow and get the boobs out 😂

MrsC87 · 10/09/2018 21:01

I got the torch on my phone really checking for a line lol @Lougg
As they say we are not out until AF arrives so I am remaining positive!
Also super relaxed as I joined a yoga class tonight- was really good 🧘‍♀️

mrsof20118 · 10/09/2018 19:16

@Delilah7 no positive opk for me either and according to flo ovulation tomorrow. Sure I had ewcm last month and ovulation pains around 21st August but got first af after stopping bc on 29th. Been doing the Ic opk 3 times a day and nothing yet. Sigh!

Lougg · 10/09/2018 18:40

@MrsC87 I work from home so it's just too easy to POAS!! I must have stared at the stark white test for a solid 5 minutes twisting and squinting.

I was so good at not testing the last two cycles I don't know what happened!

Sorry you also got a BFN. Got everything crossed for both our BFPs on Friday!

Delilah7 · 10/09/2018 18:30

@BambiOnIce80 what does that mean hun? X

OP posts:
BambiOnIce80 · 10/09/2018 18:28

Sorry @Delilah7, didn't mean to sound so negative 😂 I've got that previous diagnosis of unexplained primary infertility though, so really do need a plan/be optimistic but realistic 😏

MrsC87 · 10/09/2018 18:27

Congrats @Dimblebimble fab news!
I also did the same @Lougg today and I'm 9dpo and got a bfn, I know it's way to early but couldn't resist lol!
Fingers crossed AF doesn't show for us both Friday and we can test then 😊

Delilah7 · 10/09/2018 18:24

@BambiOnIce80 we love a plan but be positive shit head!! You help me and everyone else on here so much so take your own bloody advice woman 😂😘

OP posts:
BambiOnIce80 · 10/09/2018 18:21

Yes thanks @Delilah7 lovely 🙂 TWW nonsense for me now 🙄 A week of nothing, followed by SSP doing my own head in, probably closely followed by AF 😏 It's time to see the nice doctor lady for me if no luck this month though, so at least there's a plan 😉

Delilah7 · 10/09/2018 18:16

@BambiOnIce80 me too, trying to not get so stressed out but this month is dragging already for ovulation 😂😂 you ok pumpkin?!

OP posts:
BambiOnIce80 · 10/09/2018 18:14

Excellent plan @Delilah7 - I do love a plan 😘

Delilah7 · 10/09/2018 18:07

@CrystalBlaze that makes me feel better just worried I will miss it!! :(

@BambiOnIce80 knew you'd pipe up 😂😂😂 I DTD Friday and yesterday so I'm going to relax tonight and DTD tomorrow and probably the days leading up to when they think I'm ovulating!

OP posts:
NeverStopExploring · 10/09/2018 18:05

Hi ladies! I’ve been a bit awol again as I’ve had a lot going on but all positive stuff! Probably a good thing AF visited me as this month has been hectic and I don’t think a rush of hormones would have helped! Congratulations to those with bfp! Hoping for lots of baby dust for everyone else!

BambiOnIce80 · 10/09/2018 17:53

@Delilah7, remember what I said about not worrying about getting BFN's and be careful about letting them stress you out?! My BFP's on the OPK's were usually the day of or before I got ovulation twinges. If you're 4 days away from ovulation then you've probably got at least another 2 or 3 days of BFN's to get through. I'd get DingTD now if I were you so you've got some friendly sperm waiting to meet your egg 😉

CrystalBlaze · 10/09/2018 17:51

Good thanks @BabysSquid! Although I am endlessly STARVING. Worried I'm going to be the size of a house.

How are you?

Not been to the docs as it's self referral here. My first midwife appt is two weeks today.

Also congrats @Dimble! Great news.

And sorry @CookieWaffle and others the witch has got Sad. She's the worst. Fingers crossed for a positive month to come.

@Delilah7 try not to worry too much lovely - I ovulated much later than expected sometimes and didn't get a positive OPK till literally that day.

Delilah7 · 10/09/2018 17:48

@ValidUser no you are for sure I'm just ridiculously impatient this month. Want it to happen so I can jump on it!

OP posts:
ValidUser · 10/09/2018 17:47

@Delilah7 then you might only get a positive that day or the day before, or may ovulate a day or two later than Flo thinks.

Apps just basically plonk ovulation into the middle of your cycle and are frequently wrong. (I know you got pregnant using Flo before, but even that could be coincidence.)

Trying to be encouraging here and not sure I'm succeeding. 😂

Delilah7 · 10/09/2018 17:30

Still no positive OPK :( getting abit worried now as I'm only 4 day's away from when flo says I'll ovulate!

Delilah7 · 10/09/2018 16:41
