I'd personally say that was positive @DayDreamer1707

Just checking back in, huge congratulations to @CookieWaffle @sunshine1987 @MrsEG 💕 xxx

CookieWaffle · 25/11/2018 09:31

@Crossfitgirl my boobs have not changed or hurt at all so far! There's still hope!

CookieWaffle · 25/11/2018 09:28

Thanks @stormtrooperjulian :) no not really, I'd like to say I relaxed a bit more but I really didn't. I kept off anything ttc related on the internet as much as I could tho. BD was timed (was a bit of an effort for both of us!) I used preseed twice and third time relied on ewcm. I did have house buying as a distraction but that's not been particularly relaxing!

I did make a conscious effort to lose weight since sept. Being 40 and a high BMI I thought if I could lose weight at least that might help, so I've lost a stone since sept. Whether that's helped I'm not sure but i certainly have some energy back.

sunshine1987 · 25/11/2018 09:27

@stormtrooperjulian we decided not to try this month 🙈 I hate to be that person as I wanted to punch my friends in the face when they said it would happen once we chilled out but unfortunately they were right. Past months I’ve done SMEP/conceive plus/legs in air etc. This time we did it a couple of times and only because we realised we hadn’t had sex yet that cycle. Sorry, it’s the worst thing to hear xx

Delilah7 · 25/11/2018 09:21

@sunshine1987 told you!!! 😍😍

@MrsEG defo see a faint line!! Congrats x x

Crossfitgirl · 25/11/2018 09:21

@MrsEG I can see something but I do have to squint it's very very faint! A tentative congratulations and test again tomorrow?!

@flapjackered some luck has got to come our way soon, it's got to! How are you getting on? I keep imagining my boobs are sensitive. But then I squeeze them and they feel normal 😂 flo says AF is due in 2 days!! (Tuesday) But my usual cycle length would take me to Saturday. I dont know when to test! How are you feeling? 8dpo. Too early?? Lol xx

@gemmajen maybe you haven't ovulated yet and the current EWCM is due to a second surge? Sometimes your body can gear up for ov more than once. What's your usual ov day? Or like @katbecool said maybe the temp rise is just a bit delayed. I have read it is 2 days after a lot of the time.
Although I hope in my own case it was the day after, as we only had sex on the day of my temp rise this month!! Lol.

stormtrooperjulian · 25/11/2018 09:18

@sunshine1987 @CookieWaffle @MrsEG congratulations guys! Looks like this is a lucky thread 💗💗💗
Did you do anything different this month?

MrsEG · 25/11/2018 08:48

@sunshine1987 @cookiewaffle @FlapJackered Thanks guys! I’m a bit stunned - I was so sure AF was coming and have been so upset about it!! Trying to remain cautious though, will see what happens the next few days :)

sunshine1987 · 25/11/2018 08:26

@flapjackered @cookiewaffle 6th August apparently. Still doesn’t feel real xx

sunshine1987 · 25/11/2018 08:24

@mrseg there is definetely a line there!!!!

CookieWaffle · 25/11/2018 08:21

@MrsEG there is a definite pink line there!

CookieWaffle · 25/11/2018 08:19

Yes @sunshine1987! keeping everything crossed for us both! I've already worked out due date would be 8th August. I'm feeling sooo sick today, this must be real....

FlapJackered · 25/11/2018 08:19

@MrsEG I can see that line without even zooming! A tentative congratulations! I would definitely test in a few days with a lot of hope! (🎉) 🤞🏻

Gosh we are on a roll with this thread! We are losing you all! Not that I mind the reason at all!! 😄
Please can you pregnant ladies pass on some luck to the rest of us!

FlapJackered · 25/11/2018 08:15

@sunshine1987 ahh!! Look at those words!
You're allowed to be excited, the stats are in your favour for a sticky bean. So exciting! when is your due date?
I reckon probably if you keep temping and your temp stays up for three consecutive temps it will mark your chart as triphasic.

MrsEG · 25/11/2018 08:14

@sunshine1987 @cookiewaffle Wonderful stuff guys!! Congratulations :)

MrsEG · 25/11/2018 08:13

Morning ladies!

I need your help! The quick backstory is, I had an early MC (4+5) a month ago. ClearBlue OPKs said I ovulated on 12/11. To be honest, we didn’t really try - we (especially me) we’re still quite sad about everything but we DTD the day before and day after.

My boobs have been so sore the past few days and I did a FRER Friday which was a solid BFN. However they are so sore that I struggled sleeping on them last night, so just did another. Am I INSANE or is a faint line coming through?? I know I should jusy wait til Tuesday to see if AF comes or not but I thought I’d torture myself instead!

@cookiewaffle we must only be days apart, fingers and toes and everything I possibly can cross, crossed for us both xx

sunshine1987 · 25/11/2018 07:33

@gemmajen yeah it does though I’m trying really hard not to get excited as I know it’s early. But the what if’s are exciting too.

Sometimes it takes 48 hours from the end of the surge for me to ovulate so wonder if that’s what your body is doing? x

GemmaJen · 25/11/2018 07:17

@sunshine1987 does it feel real now it's in words? So pleased for you Flowers

mrsof20118 · 25/11/2018 07:07

Congrats @sunshine1987 @CookieWaffle

KatBeCool · 25/11/2018 06:53

@GemmaJen it can be immediate but it's not a huge rise right away, most of the time it's gradual. I wouldn't worry yet.

CookieWaffle · 25/11/2018 06:50

Yay @sunshine1987!! xxx

CookieWaffle · 25/11/2018 06:50

Thanks @GemmaJen I'm still remaining cautious as it's still early but internally excited!

I felt like you in that Sept month I posted. I honestly stated googling anovulatory cycles as I was getting panicked but seems it was just a bit slow to rise. Apparently it can happen.
