@sunshine1987 @stormtrooperjulian I loved that she was on GM!! She's fantastic 😂 I know a lot of people don't like her but I think she's brilliant xx

stormtrooperjulian · 28/09/2018 15:18

I just searched for Mrs Hinch on Insta to see what I was missing @sunshine1987 @BabySquid @cupcakesandglitter looks like that’ll help me pass the time during the most boring meeting ever this afternoon!

sunshine1987 · 28/09/2018 15:08

@cupcakesandglitter I am Mrs Hinch obsessed 😂 spent my lunch break cleaning and putting soda crystals through my washing machine x

@Delilah7 I'd go with roughly what flo predicted for that cycle, and then do OPKs around then too x

@FlapJackered yeah, hoping I know soon! Weird though as I thought this weekend I'd be late compared to last cycle. Turns out I'm late as it should be today!

@cupcakesandglitter yes I did Hun! Xxx

@starkid @BabySquid @KatBeCool thankyou ❤️ yeah I'm planning on cleaning through the house properly (I love Mrs Hinch! Planning on doing the fabric conditioner door trick), getting my hair and brows done to treat myself. Maybe even a full body wax if I'm feeling extra sorry for myself 😂

@Delilah7 thankyou ❤️ I don't know mine either 😂 this month is the first with EWCM, + OPK and temp drop the day after... and now a 36 day cycle 🙃 I'm unsure. Did you log anything into flo from the cycle you were pg? Xx

Hey @EssJayyCee xx

@FlapJackered ah boo 😩 onto the next cycle!! Big bottle glass of wine for you!! Xx

FlapJackered · 28/09/2018 13:51

Welcome @EssJayyCee 🤞🏻for you!

@Delilah7 I know, it was a relief to know where I stand. I hope you know soon one way or another. It also means I can have cocktails tonight which is a good thing! 🍸

@BabySquid @KatBeCool @cupcakesandglitter see how do I know about my LP?! I thought I worked it out when I had 28 day cycles. But I've never got a proper dark positive on OPK!

OP posts:
BabySquid · 28/09/2018 13:39

@cupcakesandglitter I've also read in a few places that your LP doesn't change. Mine is a lifetime of 15 days!! Feels so much longer while I'm in it tho!! Just try and think positive if possible, I know it's hard but try and forget about it... (while I know that it easier said than done!!) maybe try a colouring book?? I love them! Or check out Mrs Hinch on insta, she makes me forget everything and I just want to clean!!

KatBeCool · 28/09/2018 13:16

@FlapJackered I'm CD5 now. I guess it's the only plus to 24 day cycles, I can ttc more often. At the same time it's been more time it's failed.

@Delilah7 I'm sorry about your test. It'll happen.

@cupcakesandglitter I mentioned about LP not changing. That's what I read everywhere. The Dr's were looking for things that are alarming and didn't find any, so at least that's good. Stress can delay AF, so it could be just that, and temps being up means that your progesterone is, which is causing those symptoms. Everything will be fine. Hugs.

@starkid no reason to be disheartened yet so try stay positive 😘 yeah me too xxx

@Delilah7 thank you, buit nervous though as so many of our family know we're trying and are excited, asking about it etc. and I'm worried it's going to take a long time due to scar tissue in that area... feel like the excitement of starting to try will soon be taken over by frustration. Never know though :)
Fingers crossed for you next cycle too xx

@starkid how exciting for you 😍

OP posts:
starkid · 28/09/2018 10:36

@cupcakesandglitter that must be so confusing, having so many symptoms but eveything keep saying no. Don't give up hope entirely though, stranger things have happened I'm sure. Not over til AF arrives Flowers

Today starts my first FW where I can actually start trying, yippee! Cycle 1, got pre-seed ready, let's do this.
