TTC FIRST BABY THREAD NO.5!

@Crossfitgirl I'm 18dpo Hun - I've got backache, vomit has come up a few times, I've broken out (I usually have a few on my chin but this is all over), more hormonal than usual, boobs seem bigger, I've had cramping and ovary twitching, and today was the metallic taste in my mouth xx

@cupcakesandglitter also any other symptoms? AF has only ever done the opposite for me and everytime I had a feeling I was pg, she came early!! Can't imagine how frustrating it is her being late esp by so many days and esp as it's not normal for you.

Maybe it's just too early or maybe you're one of those that tests don't show up on.
Stress can sometimes make you late, or other stuff anything unusual happen this month?

@cupcakesandglitter I think if you are up to 5 days late it can still be classed as a normal variation in your cycle. 5 days and above is classed as "late". Tomorrow would be 5 days if you were due Monday right? Do you know how many dpo you are? I have a feeling you don't track ov do you? Or do you? Lol sorry xxz

@Crossfitgirl I should've been on by Monday I think (CD32). Flo is logging me as officially a day late today? Which I don't understand 😩 the last time my cycle was this long was when I had the implant out and my cycles were all over the place xx

@FlapJackered thanks for all those I'll have a little read up on them 😊

Smiley sticks is a wonderful name!

Hi guysssss!

Symptom spotting at 3dpo: twinging pain on my ovary. Same as last month. And boobs wierdly sore again!

@cupcakesandglitter chin up, stay positive, it could be your month you just don't know yet, none of you are out til you're out! I would just go to docs and get an answer. How late are you?

@flapjackered loving the supplement queen. @dosmamas I just take boots conception support. It's got folic acid which is the main thing and a few others in it.

@delilah7 see what you think of the clearblue, I've decided after next cycle I'm stopping using them and sticking with ICs as I don't think they are sensitive enough and I need to test 3 times a day so CB would bankrupt me!

Congrats to the positives for @gdog35 and @malichick and hope all you other ladies are doing ok.xx

Thankyou @sunshine1987 @FlapJackered ❤️ xx

@cupcakesandglitter don't apologise! We all have our low moments and everyone needs to let it all out at some point or other. Yes give them a ring Monday and book yourself in.

@Dosmamas - so I have blood sugar/insulin issues so I take a multi-vitamin that helps control blood sugar, folic acid, fish oil, vitamin e, Ubiquinol (coenzyme q10), magnesium, maca root powder, vitamin d3, probiotic, vitamin c and inositol 😳
I would say the most important is a good pre-natal vitamin, CoQ10, extra folic acid and vit D....and the fish oil unless you eat lots of fish.

@cupcakesandglitter don’t apologise, that’s what we’re here for, the ups and downs xx

@FlapJackered can you name a few ones you take for me? Supplements is something I have no idea about in relation to fertility

Thanks @Delilah7 @FlapJackered 😩 I think I'll give them a ring on Monday maybe if there's no progression? I'm out of the city again next week for a few days so I either have to call Mon/fri to visit. Sorry I'm putting a shit vibe on the group tonight, I'm really struggling to be positive :(

Oh no @cupcakesandglitter I am sorry your body is messing you around so much! There must be some curse on us 3 who were going to test on Wednesday as we are all still in limbo! Why don't you set a date where if af hasn't arrived or no bfp you contact the doctors. Like say Monday or Friday next week. Then at least you have a plan b.

@KatBeCool I am alternating IC with frers each day with fmu - so still teetering on the edge of poas craziness!
I am convinced I will wake up to a temp drop tomorrow though.

@Dosmamas - so many it's scary! I take more pills than my Granny who is 94! They probably do bugger all but I am scared to stop any of them now as generally feeling pretty good!

Hi girls. Will settle in and get comfy for the next month. What pre natal supplements do you take?

Delilah7, I found the cb simley tests really useful as it's very clear and gives a chart of when to start testing depending on cycle length. Of course silly sod over here got the dates toootally wrong, so was testing wayyy to early, but it's nice when the face appears, very encouraging! I use the ones that give you flashing and static. Xxx

@Delilah7 @KatBeCool I don't know what's going on :( I just broke out in tears because I realised I forgot to do an OPK with my pee too! I'm just so sad. How soon is too soon to go to the doctors? If I am pg I'm five weeks tomorrow 😩😩

@Delilah7 it'll happen for you and we'll all celebrate!

@cupcakesandglitter maybe your starting hcg was super low? It might take up to a week after AF is due to get a positive. And as I mentioned before, I have a friend who never got a positive on hpt. And she gave birth two days ago to that baby. Give it ten days, if nothing, maybe a Dr will help finding it!

@FlapJackered pace yourself 🙂. Only one per day, if you're using frer, I'd even wait a couple of days in between because they cost so much. Although who am I kidding... I'd peeing on every stick I see.

Hey ladies, found you all again! Can't believe how quickly these threads fill up!

Bfn as expected 👎🏼 used the CB dye one and nothing. Not even a fucking smidge. Actually getting really pissed off now - still have that metal taste, cramping, creamy Cm. Wtf is going on?!!

@Delilah7 lucky you 😂😂😩

@delilah7 they’re much easier as in it tells you in black and white what the answer is so you don’t have to work out is it a positive or not x
