Hi guys I am 7DPO (I think) and don’t think I’ve done it this month but feeling rather alone and would like someone to talk to about it all!

Only symptoms I’ve had this month are IM BOILING HOT (but it is June), I’m really tired constantly and went to bed at 8.30 the last two nights (but my work is crap atm) and really heavy, sore boobs.

Think I ovulated last Monday/Tuesday and going to test Friday. My periods aren’t back to being regular as of yet after coming off the mini pill so it’s anyones guess.

Would love someone to symptom spot with!

@lonelyonee that line looks good- quite early to get s positive like that! Let us know how it goes when the frer.

@Abi58 congrats! Although sorry you feel rubbish!

Abi58 · 19/07/2019 06:02

@lonelyonee it really is ☺️ aw yeah it definitely made it more real and made us both a lot more relaxed 😁
Haha thank you ☺️❤️

Yeah it is 🥰 was so lovely!

Aw I'm sure they will be really happy 😁💕

Ahh so exciting let us know how you get on!

That's a great line for 12dpo, I'd also put money on it 🙈😁

lonelyonee · 19/07/2019 00:19

@Abi58 oops forgot to say I'm 12 DPO I think. Popped my data in and allegedly conceived on 6/7th, with an estimated dd of 28/29th March 2020. BUT depends what we get in the morning.
DP has confided in a friend for his line eyes as he has 3 little ones and he's putting money on the fact I am indeed PG. little joke to lighten the mood as DP doesn't believe it haha.

lonelyonee · 19/07/2019 00:14

@Abi58 Well worth the money in my opinion just for peace of mind, I've never been PG before but I may get one to ease DPs mind as a previous partner of his miscarried at 10 weeks. Great pic of your little blob, it's defo there no denying that! Big congrats!
Awww that's so lovely, it's the best when family is overjoyed. I don't think I'll be able to keep it to myself tbh, I'm a really open person and hate lying! Although I'm not sure on my families reactions.
I will do! I also have clear blue digitals so if I get a FRER pos then I'll do one of those too! Argh! Grin

Abi58 · 18/07/2019 23:35

@lonelyonee and thank you 🥰🥰🥰

Abi58 · 18/07/2019 23:34

@lonelyonee yeah we did just for reassurance after what happened in June. Told my mum tonight she was so so happy! 🥰 the scanwas only £59 so can't complain definitely made me feel a lot better and calmer ☺️

That is a great line!!! Congratulations!!!! So so happy for you!!!!! Show us the frer in the morning looking at that line I bet it will be quite positive!

How many dpo are you?

lonelyonee · 18/07/2019 23:32

Oh my god @Abi58 that's amazing! I presume you paid for a scan privately?

I'm going to do a FRER In the morning but there's defo a line... here's another photo but with flash.

Abi58 · 18/07/2019 23:25

@lonelyonee ahhhh congratulations! That's a great line!!!

I'm ok, feel bloody awful but it's the best reason to feel awful 🙈

Actually had an earlier scan on tues, meet my blob with a heartbeat (top blob) 🥰

@CroissantwithCheese sounds promising 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Skyla01 good luck ☺️🤞🏻

lonelyonee · 18/07/2019 22:14

@CroissantwithCheese that sounds promising hopefully it's not AF being annoyingly early!
@Skyla01 woooo you got a smiley! I didn't get any on mine the best I got was an ALMOST dark line on a cheap opk. Get dtd as much as you can this weekend eh!

lonelyonee · 18/07/2019 22:12

OH MY GOD LINE EYES PLEASE.

Randomly thought yeah I'll use my cheapy one tonight on the off chance and I've gotten this??????

(Will reply in my next comment to you lovely ladies one sec!)

Skyla01 · 18/07/2019 21:56

Good luck @lonelyonee! I would hold out testing for as long as possible if I were you, just find it easier that way.

I'm getting on ok with opk, flashing smiley on cb digital. Got some ewcm yesterday so hoping static smiley is on its way! Going to try and DTD every day for the next few. Looking forward to the TWW!

CroissantwithCheese · 18/07/2019 21:01

Hi @lonelyonee, and everyone!
I’ve had cramping in my lower belly since Monday, af due Sunday, so I’m hoping it’s implantation cramping as it’s happening much earlier than usual. I did a test this morning and got a bfn. Could go either way I suppose. Fingers crossed for us this month

lonelyonee · 18/07/2019 19:32

Hey guys! How's it going?
Little update, AF is due Saturday and ovia is saying I can test from tomorrow although I'm going to try my best to hold off until Saturday morning if I can!
Feeling a little nauseous this evening, currently sat in the car in the shade with the window down waiting for DP to finish a work thing. Could just be dehydration due to warm weather though so who knows.

Anyone else testing/waiting for AF to rear her ugly head this weekend? Has anyone had any success with OPKs?

Skyla01 · 14/07/2019 19:29

@AllTheGlitter I guess I'm fortunate my OH is happy to DTD to a schedule. Not romantic at all but hope we'll get the job done! Every one is different though, and some people don't like the pressure / lack of romance.

I think it would be worth DTD anyway, cm isn't always reliable so you never know.

AllTheGlitter · 14/07/2019 17:51

Hi guys,

@Skyla01 how do manage to get him to schedule it? My partner thinks I’m ridiculous if I suggest it and that it should be spontaneous Hmm.

I think I’ve now missed ovulation anyway as I have creamy CM as of today Sad funnily enough I bet everything we will DTD tonight! Argh.

On the plus side, at least I won’t be dreaming of a BFP this month as I already know I’m out!

How’s everyone else?

Skyla01 · 13/07/2019 18:13

Hope we can keep it up! Last month we ran out of steam a bit. In the end I was away on a work trip over ovulation time anyway so was a bit unlucky. Determined to give it a better shot this cycle!

lonelyonee · 13/07/2019 18:02

@Skyla01 aw you've got a good routine going there then! Surely you'll get lucky with that dedication! Fingers crossed!

Skyla01 · 13/07/2019 17:52

@lonelyonee that's a good effort given all the stress you have going on. You never know- sometimes being distracted can help!

We have started DTD every 3rd day. Not expecting ovulation for another week or two. Will DTD a bit more once I get positive opk.

lonelyonee · 13/07/2019 14:38

@Skyla01 actually managed to dtd around 6/7 times... I usually log it on ovia but I'm sure I've missed one or two times so I'm not sure!
Won't be holding my breath for a BFP I tell you that!
What about you how many times did you manage to dtd? Like they say every other day but there's no chance of that!

Skyla01 · 13/07/2019 10:54

I'm on cd15 25 but af isn't due until August 12th!! Stupid long cycles, it takes ages for each one to come around. So I'm not testing for ages! Did you manage to dtd much with everything else that's been going on?

lonelyonee · 13/07/2019 09:04

@Skyla01 not at the moment. There is a possibility of helping a family member start a business but that's a while off yet.
I was so busy in my own head with everything going on I completely missed this cycle it feels! I've attached my ovia stats for today... can't believe I can test in 6 days it's absolutely flown by this month!
So when is everyone else testing???

Skyla01 · 12/07/2019 18:29

@AllTheGlitter and @lonelyonee sorry you guys are both having a hard time. Make time for yourself- it's not good be miserable in life. @lonelyonee that sounds horrible, do you have any other job options available?

lonelyonee · 12/07/2019 18:24

@AllTheGlitter awww no! Maybe you need to plan a date night no phones or organise a pamper sesh to unwind? Just a couple of ideas that could help a bit. I'll be honest I'm awful it's all kicked off big style at work and quite frankly I don't wanna go back. I genuinely wouldn't mind if I had done something wrong but I haven't & I'm being made to feel like the one causing problems. (If I'm out of line I'll always own up and apologise, my ego can take it lol).
I really do feel like I'm back at school with all the gossiping and pettiness, oh and the clique mentality.
My mental health is really suffering because of it Sad

Hope everyone else is doing better than I am! x
