Hi all, thought as it's Bank Holiday and thread 15 was 900 plus I'd start a new one, hope that's OK??

Copying tags from when @starkid updated them all the other day.

Hope this works as I've not created a thread before!!

@SophWolf 😂 at least it's something you can monitor x

@MrsR16 omg! How's it going for you? And yes you please let us know when you've watched it too!! Xx

MrsR16 · 29/04/2019 13:18

@MrsEG huge GoT fan here! Can't wait till I get home (we're watching on Now TV). I think it's going to be super sad but awesome at the same time. I'm gonna be all set with a box of tissues ready! 😂

MrsR16 · 29/04/2019 13:15

@starkid the rise in RHR was me! @SophWolf mine flew up by 10bpm, which was the first indication! I'm now sat at 71bpm at 5+5 xx

SophWolf · 29/04/2019 13:11

@cupcakesandglitter I hadn't heard of the rhr thing before but this is what happens when you start looking in to every tiny thing! CD26 as well so was thinking of testing on Wednesday too! FX for you!

cupcakesandglitter · 29/04/2019 12:54

@Keyboard91 sounds promising!!! Fx for you xx

cupcakesandglitter · 29/04/2019 12:54

@FlapJackered oh brill, glad it's all moving forward for you!! I've never even heard of a fertility nutritionist 😂 I'm not too educated on this stuff!! I'm good too thanks, I'm CD26, I'm gonna test on Wednesday and then next week if AF hasn't come - my boobs are really really sore which I've never felt before so I'm hopeful x

@SophWolf sorry I don't know anything about resting heart rate xx

@starkid @MrsEG ME!!!! DH woke me up this morning at 2 to watch it 😂😂😂 my favourite episode EVER!!! Please let me know when you've watched it, I'm DYING to talk about it!! Xx

Keyboard91 · 29/04/2019 12:50

Just peed - no AF, lots of discharge which is slightly off white

Keyboard91 · 29/04/2019 12:46

@MrsEG due Weds, CD27. Planning to test tomorrow but mindful that my previous 2 PG I got a bfp on the morning AF was due, not before.

I feel different to how I felt before.. but PG1 I didn’t really symptom spot/log so don’t really remember how that went, I just remember knowing. And PG2 was weird anyway - knew it wasn’t gonna stick because of how I felt. So although I now feel weird in a very gynae/hormonal way, which is no way my normal PMS, I have no idea whether it’s a good thing or not. I feel a bit like I do on CD2/3 of my cycle but without the blood (at least there was no blood at break, will check when I pee this lunch time.) and not as much pain. I just don’t feel right. It’s weird. I’ve cried over ridiculous things the last 3 days, again not like me at all, even DP has said that. I’m also grumpy, quick to argue. And I’m very clingy. Sex drive is non existent. I ache in my hips and thighs. I feel very heavy on my feet. And I keep having to pull my trouser waistband down to free the bloat. It’s not pretty!

Marleym28 · 29/04/2019 12:39

@FlapJackered
We are the same dpo I think. How are you feeling x

McHelenz · 29/04/2019 12:01

So exciting for game of thrones! Had to log off twitter because spoilers

MrsEG · 29/04/2019 11:30

@starkid @LikeTheFruit Yep - it’s gonna be a bloodbath! Not sure I can hack it, I’m barely over Avengers!

@Keyboard91 When is AF actually due, are you testing this week if she doesn’t show up? I had crazy dreams in the days just before my BFP. Nothing to do with being preggo though, just very intense really vivid dreams!

LikeTheFruit · 29/04/2019 11:22

@starkid @MrsEG GoT fan here too!! Dreading the battle - there will surely be some big character losses.

@starkid thanks for stats. Mine correct, I turn 31 in 2 weeks and I'm slowly clinging onto cycle 4. CD 35 now. Longest cycle yet. Have had spotting the last 5 days now. But cramps feeling different today so think AF is imminent.

starkid · 29/04/2019 11:07

@MrsEG - thanks, have added you back in.
I'm excited for tonight, filled in a GoT 'death pool' before this series, and am looking forward to seeing which ones I was right or wrong about! 😂 Am probably going to be a mess though if it is a total bloodbath.

Keyboard91 · 29/04/2019 11:04

@Tropicana1 let’s hopr our crazy TTC dreams are good signs 😂

Was so convinced my AF came that I went to check at break but nothing! Still getting AF cramps on and off. Not really bad but noticeable. I’m also just feeling warm today ... and I’m not a warm person normally. Going to try and eat to see if that makes me feel a bit better xx

MrsEG · 29/04/2019 11:02

@LindyMoe Sorry to hear you’re having a rough time. As the girls have said, it’s not uncommon for AF to randomly be late but to be having panic attacks and anxiety is certainly something you should speak to your GP about. Stress can really affect your periods and TTC too. Definitely go and have a chat with them and I hope they are able to help x

@cupcakesandglitter Fx for weds! Hope AF stays well away!

@SophWolf A high resting HR and body temp is a really good sign..... got any FRERs??

@FlapJackered So glad to see everything is being looked in to for you! Hope your TWW passes super fast!

@starkid My stats are 33, technically cycle 9 but two MC in between - think I dropped off with my BFP in December!

Any Game of Thrones fans on the thread? I can’t decide if I’m excited or dreading tonight’s episode!!

McHelenz · 29/04/2019 09:50

It's ok guys, the girls have been contained 😂😂

starkid · 29/04/2019 09:48

I remember someone else had that recently @SophWolf and got a bfp... so fx! xx

SophWolf · 29/04/2019 09:42

Thanks @starkid mine a right. Think I'm 12dpo today (according to bbt and app) but had 9 days of flashing smileys so not sure! Just noticed my resting heart rate on my Fitbit has rocketed - anyone else seen anything similar? Trying to hold off testing until at least Wednesday 😬

@cupcakesandglitter I am good thanks lovely! I have just had a really busy few days, need to sit down and have a proper catch up on this thread soon! I am 4dpo so just the boring waiting game now. I am seeing a fertility nutritionist today and then have my docs appointment to try and get referred to a fertility expert on Wednesday so I am getting all sorted on the baby making front! 😂
How are you? What cd are you on now?

McHelenz · 29/04/2019 09:23

@cupcakesandglitter not going to be pleasant for my visit this morning. Need to emergency stop at Tesco 😂

cupcakesandglitter · 29/04/2019 09:19

@McHelenz 😂😂😂 free the Tatas!!

McHelenz · 29/04/2019 09:17

Girls funny story.

Just bent over to get something out of my car. Heard a ping. Bra fell off 😂

cupcakesandglitter · 29/04/2019 08:48

Yaaaay happy ov day @MrsEG 😂 I'm testing this week, more than likely Wednesday if I don't get any pre-AF spotting. Xx

Boobs are HUGE and super sore this morning. They felt sore underneath last night but now the top is sore too. Nipples aren't sore anymore wahoo 😂

@Keyboard91 @Tropicana1 what's with your weird dreams? 😂😂😂

@LindyMoe sorry you're not feeling great - how long have you been TTC? I'd definitely see the GP about your anxiety, TTC is a really hard time and puts a lot of pressure on couples so it's important to look after yourself during too xx

Hey @FlapJackered how are you? Xx
