@KatBeCool I took folic acid a few times last month but I read it could mess up cycles so I didn't take any this cycle just in case!

I text DH because I was CONVINCED AF started and I felt it. Accepted I'd come on, got really sad, went to check and nothing but a creamy blob. Fab.

KatBeCool · 25/09/2018 15:47

@Ronetta28 usually the reason for the second peak is not ovulating after the first, basically not having an egg that was mature enough. That's why temping helps, it let's you know if you actually ovulated.

@FlapJackered I'm sorry for your bfn. It's not too tough until AF shows up.

@cupcakesandglitter are you taking folic acid? I think my body is now set on 24 day cycles and probably due to me taking it. Someone also mentioned B6.

@Delilah7 people can be cruel sometimes. Maybe do something nice for your parents to make them feel better since you can't talk to your brother?

Ronetta28 · 25/09/2018 11:06

@Sunshine1987 yes it's been a stressful couple of months and expensive I'm so tired of it honestly. What about you how are you ( sorry I can't see previous pages my phone plays up) . Only another 3 and a half hours to my appointment I really wish I was pregnant and I think I'm in severe denial as well but my body is not being normal at all .

sunshine1987 · 25/09/2018 10:49

@ronetta28 let us know how you get on. Must be so frustrating not knowing, if nothing else the doctors can do bloods and work out if you are pregnant and just not picking it up on tests at the moment x

Ronetta28 · 25/09/2018 10:47

Hi everyone I don't know own how to @babysquid , I haven't been deployed for a while now but usually it doesn't interfere with AF even when I do just my bowel (tmi) lol . @sunshine1987 i have been using the opk advanced digital since June and usually have one peak but yeah you may be right although September I had the two . My body is being so out of whack since August hopefully the nurse will out an end to my worry . And my pad is still fully dry so again not usual for me . I hope everyone is well and will get some answers as well . Thanks so much for the support feel like I'm going crazy xx

@Delilah7 only a couple of days to wait 😊 x

Okay so my noonie is super heavy and I've got some tummy cramping. Convinced I'm going to start today (I actually hope so) xx

Delilah7 · 25/09/2018 10:07

@cupcakesandglitter CD26 xx

@sunshine1987 @FlapJackered same here, super depressing. I'd rather just have AF too than be stuck in limbo 😩 I have a feeling this is just a cycle problem - last cycle was 24 days for no reason, I can just see my body going back to how it was last year (two week cycle, and then a 40 day cycle) happened for months 😭 I'll join you on the gin 😩

@Delilah7 oh god 🙄 just focus on yourself, let them grow up when they're ready to 😂😂 yeah I can imagine, what CD are you now? X

Delilah7 · 25/09/2018 09:24

@FlapJackered they haven't bothered with me either so I haven't spoken to either of them. They wouldn't like it. They'd call me favourite child. As usual 😂 xx

@sunshine1987 I think I will do it to them both when they actually talk to me haha xx

@cupcakesandglitter exactly. I'm sure nothing will happen to dad but if it did my god would they be in for a shock. They've both forget their real families. Xx

If I'm honest I'm half excited to see if AF comes on 28 day's like it normally would... xx

FlapJackered · 25/09/2018 09:18

@sunshine1987 @cupcakesandglitter it's so depressing isn't it. I just want AF to come now so I have force myself into focusing/being positive for the next cycle.
Right now I want a big Gin and Tonic and chocolate but it's only 9am so I might need to wait a few hours.

sunshine1987 · 25/09/2018 09:14

@cupcakesandglitter first month I just want AF to arrive as I know I’m not pregnant so just want to get on with actively doing something x

sunshine1987 · 25/09/2018 09:11

@ronetta28 I would book a doctors appointment and try and work out what’s happening. The OPK’s will only show when your body is gearing up to ovulate, sometimes you can get a surge and no egg is released so your body tries again. Hence two positives. The only way to see if you are ovulating is by your temperature xx

cupcakesandglitter · 25/09/2018 09:10

@sunshine1987 yes!! It's like a torture game isn't it. So annoying that I've had no problems, but as soon as I TTC it decides to fuck up on me!!

cupcakesandglitter · 25/09/2018 09:09

@Delilah7 oh god, tensions make family say stupid things and act like little children. Keep a level head on and be there for your parents right now - your brother needs to stop being a selfish arse and cut them some slack x

@FlapJackered eurgh I hear that 😩 I'm 15dpo I think today (CD33) and literally nothing at all. OPKs aren't getting darker either. It's so difficult to stay positive when we're trying to do everything right and nothing at all!! I'm really not helping but I'm struggling to stay positive too 😩 x

sunshine1987 · 25/09/2018 09:08

@delilah7 can you speak to your brother and tell him to give them a break? x

sunshine1987 · 25/09/2018 09:08

@flapjackered @cupcakesandglitter I’ve still not had a temp drop either which isn’t normal for me at this point. Fed up this month as feel like my body is playing tricks xx

FlapJackered · 25/09/2018 09:07

@Delilah7 poor you and your Mum.
Have you talked to them and told them to wind their necks in? Or would they not respond well to that?

FlapJackered · 25/09/2018 09:01

@cupcakesandglitter it's really hit me badly this morning, just feel so sad 😭 I think I would have a line by 12dpo if it was possible.

I just feel like ttc is like playing the lottery, bfn's just feel so inevitable now and bfps just feel like an unachievable dream. I can't see it ever happening for me and I don't get how it's so easy for some people.
Sorry, rant over. 😢

Delilah7 · 25/09/2018 09:00

@cupcakesandglitter I just don't know what to do. 😭
My brother and mum had a row two days ago. He called her a joke said she doesn't care about the grandkids ( which she does so so much ). He said that what my sister says about her is true. Played the card of ' you have a grandson that's ill' he's not unwell. He has special needs and he's fine. Doing things people never thought he would. My mum and dad have not had a break for three years. My dad's mum died, 2015, my auntie died 2016, my mums mum died 2017, and now my grandad terminally unwell, I had a miscarriage and now this with dad's heart. I want to rip both their heads off.

Ahh @FlapJackered 😩😩 you're not out till she shows so try and stay positive xx

I still feel like AF is coming. Wasted so many pads waiting for it to come 😩

Hi @Ronetta28 😊 sorry I have no advice, let us know what the nurse says, hope it gets sorted xx

Hi ladies, what a night! I'm out, af arrived just before bee. Am actually ok, feeling better just for knowing. Cycle day 1 for me today, a new start. Sorry to everyone who got bfn. Maybe October will be our month? Totally off topic, we took in a lost/stray(?) kitten from the cold last night! Hoping she's chipped, as our resident big boy cat doesn't look impressed!! Xx
