@MrsLBear not too bad still have bad days. Had another acupuncture session last night. Just hoping we catch again soon.
How are you? X

MrsLBear · 06/07/2019 08:03

@MrsH497 don't worry it only takes the once 😃 also some people DTD days before O when they try the shettles (dunno if I've got the right word there) method and it works for them. It's so frustrating when day to day life gets in the way of TTC.
How are you doing otherwise lovely?

MrsLBear · 06/07/2019 08:01

@MrsEG ps wishing you a wonderful and healthy pregnancy ❤️

MrsLBear · 06/07/2019 08:00

@MrsEG wow what an amazing surprise!!! Congratulations again!!
Did you suspect anything like that?

FlapJackered · 06/07/2019 07:50

@MrsEG that is such amazing news! I couldn't be happier for you! You deserve it and twins too! That is so exciting!! I hope you have a wonderful stress free pregnancy going forward. Keep in touch with us! ❤️

ELW85 · 06/07/2019 07:13

@MrsEG - I honestly cannot tell you how happy I am for you 😊 I really hope you get to enjoy every second of this pregnancy with the fantastic support network in place, and look forward to both of your beautiful little ones turning your world upside down, haha! Xx

MrsEG · 06/07/2019 07:07

@Lozzlepop @LokiCat @ELW85 @Imjustme2019 @MrsH497 @Larrydavid Thanks so much ladies, nope no twins in the family at all! After all my googling yesterday apparently it’s a myth they run in families and it’s more likely I’ve released two eggs in one cycle. I am only just over 6 weeks so still early days but it was a wonderful experience and the sonographers were happy with what they saw. Feels very surreal still!

Hope you are all doing really well and I’m crossing my fingers and toes for all of your BFPs soon!

ELW85 · 06/07/2019 07:01

Morning all!

@LokiCat - I’m feeling strangely fine, which can only mean that it’ll kick in tomorrow, haha! The warm up was way worse; 10kcal on the assault bike every minute on the minute, with wall walks and DB walking lunges to follow 😂 then the workout started. Why do we do this?!

I’m having conflicting charting outcomes, ladies.
FF reckons I Ov a day earlier than I think I did, and my other charts aren’t detecting the 3 higher temps to draw a cover line yet. What do you reckon?

Changes* not changed

Anny27 · 05/07/2019 22:44

@MrsH497 ahh thats frustrating! Once is better than no times though so fingers crossed!

And @Imjustme2019 yeah my ovulation date changed by a few days either side of my "average" per cycle - some people are super regular and others it changes each month i think :)

Larrydavid · 05/07/2019 22:19

@MrsEG omg absolutely delighted for you!! Twins! Wonderful news xx

MrsH497 · 05/07/2019 22:13

Oh @MrsEG that's just wonderful news! So happy for you! Xx

Well DTD looks more and more unlikely hubby is being kept at work until 0200!! So DTD once in fertile period 😐

Imjustme2019 · 05/07/2019 20:50

@MrsEG wow wow wow, congratulations, wonderful news.

Do you all find that you ovulate on the same day each cycle or that it changes?

LokiCat · 05/07/2019 20:16

Hope you're* not..!! I can't believe I made that mistake!

LokiCat · 05/07/2019 20:15

@ELW85 sounds like a plan! I'm going to give DH my tests to hide as well until then 😂
How was your CrossFit session? Hope your not too sore!

ELW85 · 05/07/2019 19:57

Evening all!

@XjustagirlX - it’s a tough one! Has your CM changed back to EW?

@Lozzlepop - I think they sound like great symptoms!! Going to keep absolutely everything crossed for you :)

@LokiCat - we will have to keep each other strong :) should we make a pact to not test before 13/07?

@MrsEG - congratulations!! That is absolutely amazing news :) I couldn’t be happier for you! Xx

MrsR16 · 05/07/2019 18:35

@MrsEG oh goodness!!! Double trouble, hey? 😜 I'm so happy for you that everything's ok! Xx

LokiCat · 05/07/2019 16:52

@MrsEG omg, how amazing!!! Congratulations - I'm absolutely over the moon for you!! ❤️ I hope you're celebrating this weekend with your DH! Glad everything is looking good, as well! Please continue giving us updates 😊 xxx

Lozzlepop · 05/07/2019 16:46

@LokiCat a relaxing weekend sounds good! Oooh good luck imparting your wisdom 🙂

@MrsEG OMG what wonderful news!!!! I am so delighted for you both ❤️what a surprise that must have been, do twins run in your family?

MrsEG · 05/07/2019 16:42

Hi girls! Hope everyone is doing really well - just wanted to update you all as we had our scan today and had the absolute shock of our lives - not only is all looking good, but there are two babies in my uterus! So, after all this time it looks like we are having twins. We are absolutely stunned but totally delighted. Xx

LokiCat · 05/07/2019 15:38

@Lozzlepop sorry to hear you're feeling sick but hope that's positive news!
I'm going to try and have a relaxing weekend. Out shopping with my best friend tomorrow. Her and her DH are thinking of starting to TTC, so I told her I'd share all my wisdom and knowledge (read crazy obsession) of TTC.
Think DH wants to do some painting on Sunday!

@ELW85 yes, please tell me off if I even think of testing early! I ran out of IC to test on, so don't want to waste the expensive tests!
DH does tell me to drink protein shakes after a workout, but I'm not a fan of them.. maybe I should start listening to him!
I usually test the day after peak to see if it's gone lighter then also get tired of holding my pee in.

@XjustagirlX looking at your temp rise, I wonder if you actually O'd yesterday? I'm no chart expert so I might be wrong!
We can help each other get through the next week then, at least!
I used to start testing from 11dpo with IC and then sit with my phone's torch looking for a line. Going to stay strong this cycle though!

Lozzlepop · 05/07/2019 14:33

@ELW85 I have felt sick the past few days but think its just down to poor sleep, had to run for a bus earlier and it nearly ended me lol! I stop my OPKs after OV mainly cos I am so frustrated from holding in wee and dehydrating myself lol!

XjustagirlX · 05/07/2019 14:13

I decided to continue with the cheap tests out of curiosity but also coz I ordered loads of them. I have added my temp chart (hopefully). The temp has gone up but not by loads. Ignore cd11 no idea what was going on.
