@ValidUser I'm just sitting here having a little cry to myself.. no ones here and I'm just exhausted from worrying about my cycles after MC.
Last month was 30 day's. This month is currently 31. I can't deal with them being this irregular😭 I'm so stressed out.

@Delilah7 I know I'm just spamming our thread now, but i find digital tests give the most depressing BFNs. There's something so final about "not pregnant". Doesn't stop me using them too though. ❤️

ValidUser · 29/09/2018 09:29

@summer28 also cycle 3 here and maybe 2 dpo (but my age matches your username). Welcome!

ValidUser · 29/09/2018 09:28

@Delilah7 digitals aren't all that sensitive - they're nearly 4 times less sensitive than FRERs.

@EssJayyCee I shouldn't symptom spot. I know it's pointless because it's generally the placenta that gives symptoms and that hasn't formed. But I'm a big, shameless symptom spotter. 😂

Hi ladies,

Just joining in for the first time so hi everyone 👋
Age 31
Cycle 3
CD19, about 7 days PO and well and truly in the TWW.
Had an early MMC at 4 weeks (didn't know I was pregnant) in my first cycle, so hoping this might be my month. I'm feeling a bit different in this TWW- similar to the first cycle really.... so the waiting continues!!!

Delilah7 · 29/09/2018 09:16

Tested again. Wish I could get FRERs from other than amazon. Everywhere else is abit of a trek to get them. But with three digital negatives I'm probably just not pregnant 😂

Please talk me out of POAS at 7DPO, madness!

Delilah7 · 29/09/2018 08:31

@stormtrooperjulian I'm so over testing as I'm just knowing AF will turn up late 😂

Welcome @wildcatseverywhere and @Teachermummy83

@EssJayyCee I use opks as I came off the implant and didn’t know when or if I would ovulate. I used the amazon cheapies, seemed to work well

@Delilah7 maybe you should test tomorrow just to be sure?

EssJayyCee · 29/09/2018 07:21

@starkid I think I might get some. I was irregular before the pill so didn't know when I ovulate or when AF was coming. On the pill for a year and a half. Now back off it, Cycle one was 45 days no idea if or when I ovulate. Now cycle two CD29 No sign of AF all previous pregnancy symptoms seem to have disappeared so I think to cycle three I need to figure out where things happen!

Delilah7 · 29/09/2018 07:18

@cupcakesandglitter me and you are as confused in the head as each other babes.
Im now officially a day late.... boobs are killing me and I had strange taste again yesterday. After two negatives in the week I know I'm not, but I guess I just want that bit of hope x

OP posts:
KatBeCool · 29/09/2018 07:15

@cupcakesandglitter it's hard to say since you haven't been sleeping well or enough. I'd still keep track, especially when they're in the high range. What's your base line?

cupcakesandglitter · 29/09/2018 07:09

Morning @KatBeCool x

I'm up just to take my temp 😭 Since Tuesday I've had a mixture of either broken sleep or roughly 2/3 hours of sleep all night. I knew my temps wouldn't count and I've logged them in FF as discarded but I've looked and tues-fri all 36.11 degrees and today was 36.10 - I can't help but think that this maybe shouldn't be discarded? Or am I overthinking it? X

KatBeCool · 29/09/2018 06:54

Welcome, everyone new!

CD6 for me. Waiting for the O is definitely easier than the two weeks after.

Teachermummy83 · 28/09/2018 23:41

Wonder if you’ve room for a newbie? Really struggling with this TTC malarkey just now so hoping for friendly faces to chat to xx

starkid · 28/09/2018 23:07

@EssJayyCee - I use them, as i used to be on the pill for years so didn't know when I ovulated. I was worried I wasn't using them right/they weren't working when I started using them to track last month, but finally went very dark on days 18 and 19, which correlated with my temp going up and ewcm, so seems good to me. I was testing twice a day from around CD13. I use the cheap Amazon ones Smile

EssJayyCee · 28/09/2018 22:51

Do any of you girls use OPK's?
If so are they worth it?

EssJayyCee · 28/09/2018 22:50

@mrsR16 the only symptoms I have are what I mentioned in a PP. None of them link to previous AF so not that I'm aware..

I'm sick of thinking and hoping I'm pregnant. I know deep down that I'm not and I probably never will be.

@BabySquid sorry to hear about your mc good luck!
@starkid hello! Ooh good luck!
Aww all you ladies are so lovely, so welcoming!

Delilah7 · 28/09/2018 22:44

FivexFive · 28/09/2018 22:29

Ooo a few new ladies in the gang, love it! Welcome all :)
I'm 30, off the pill since march but only cycle 2 of proper trying. Cycle day 4.

Crossfitgirl, try to delegate or ask for help where possible. If it's a new role, hopefully you'll get some support? Good luck with the job, I'm sure you'll smash it!

Delilah7 and Cupcakesandglitter, hope you guys are ok xxx

Delilah7 · 28/09/2018 22:04

@wildcatseverywhere welcome honey xxx
