@Katie1109 it sounds positive to me, chick. Keeping fingers crossed for you. I think IB is rare anyway so don't worry so much. But it could be that you notice a tiny amount of brown blood in a few days if its old blood. Woohoo. How are you feeling now chick?

Katie1109 · 08/10/2019 18:17

Thanks for all your relpies x if this is not an implentation I do not know what it is. The pain is not shooting now, it’s a dull constant pain which I can feel every time I stretch bend over or cough and sneeze etc x I haven’t noticed any spotting x

@ACMJ how strange. Still give it more time chick. Some people don't get BFPs for a week or more after AF due. But also, not everyone has symptoms with PG so it's really hard. Only time will tell. Hopefully you can distract yourself? Also, they say the hcg levels double every 48 hours so maybe give it 2 days and try again 🤞🏻💫

@Hewie30 that's good. You'll have to dive on OH tonight the. Got to get those strong swimmers ready! Yesss, hope so. I think O really is today. Lots of watery CM and twinges. So I'd say so!! Woohoo!! Roll on the DPOs!
Oh that's amazing. I hope you're enjoying the change of pace? When did you move?? Nothing too exciting sadly, which is why I think I'm more exhausted than anything 🤣🙈 I work in marketing. So I guess it's all fun in a way!
That's good. Glad you're feeling well. And who knows, now you're off Pregnacare, you may O sooner 🤷‍♀️👌🏻 which would be great. And seeing as we're all pretty certain you had a MC (chemical) last month, you should be a fertility goddess right now. So woohoo!!

Hewie30 · 08/10/2019 16:52

@gigi318 Yeah it did massively I felt so unwell! Thankfully it's all gone now so I feel myself again, oh has been staying away because I've been in pain but think I'm ready for some attention again 😂. Oh really? You've definitely been converted haha. I know how you feel im from London and never thought I'd move out of there but I've moved to Surrey but I've definitely felt it was the best thing i could have done! What big projects have you had? Anything interesting 😊. Oooo come on ovulation, twinges and ewcm 😍😍😍. I feel okay! Starting to get twinges but only CD10 so early doors for me!

Hewie30 · 08/10/2019 16:48

@katie1109 oooo!! Nooo that could definitely be implantation 🤞🤞🤞

ACMJ · 08/10/2019 16:42

@Gigi318. Still no sign of AF! Now 4 days late. Symptoms include- extreme hunger, headaches, hot flashes, cramping, backache, nausea, tiredness! Before I went on the pill I had super irregular periods so didn’t expect any different now after coming off the pill but something just doesn’t add up, such strong symptoms but keep getting BFN!

Gigi318 · 08/10/2019 16:19

@Hewie30 Oh no, gosh that UTI really took it out of you. Is it all cleared up now? Yes just get to it when you feel like it. No rush! I think they look so chic, but OH 100% wants country and I've grown to really love it. I'm more of a city girl at heart, but I've been converted. So here we shall stay! I'm feeling well mainly. A little tired (as per my earlier ramble) and trying to get some big projects done, but other than that I'm all good. I can definitely feel some twinges today and more water CM, so hopefully it's O time. How are youuu? X

@Katie1109 I'd say you're bang on implantation time, my love. Eeek I hope it is!!!! How exciting. But also, try to distract yourself if you can so you don't drive yourself mad wondering if it is. Woohoo!

@Raizelrea okay so this is all nuts. Have you had much at all today? Hopefully that's a good thing?! I never know what to think anymore when we all have bleeding stop and start. So hard to even weigh in on it. Perhaps you're right, just our bodies sending us balmy! Lots of love x

Raizelrea · 08/10/2019 16:12

So my bleeding has basically stopped now. I think my body is playing an elaborate prank on me!

Raizelrea · 08/10/2019 16:02

@katie1109 Not too early - implantation happens anywhere between 6 and 12 DPO so certainly possible!

Katie1109 · 08/10/2019 15:02

Hi girls, I’m experiencing shooting pains that last couple of seconds in my left pelvic area at the moment. It does not feel very nice at all :( 7/8 DPO is too early for implantation, isn’t it? Boy I feel exhausted now! :(

Hewie30 · 08/10/2019 14:35

@gigi318 Haha fingers crossed it is 😊. I'm going to try too but haven't since I've finished AF due to my UTI, it was too painful to walk so dtd would be too painful/uncomfortable for me.
Ahhh that's a shame!! I love our new build but it likely wouldn't be out in the sticks as you'd like. We really do!! How are you today?

@raizelrea Your a tough cookie but you've got us here for support whenever you need it. Haha this is true! It's always good when it falls on a Friday or Saturday! Gutted I'm working on the Friday and Saturday though but I'll make it a good birthday with the time I have 😊. Yeah don't get me wrong I'm still a tad hesitant I can't help but to think it'll take longer but I'm going to go with it and see, it may prove me wrong! How are you feeling today?

Gigi318 · 08/10/2019 13:09

@Raizelrea oh fantastic, thats a good idea. Just keep busy! Sounds fantastic for Thursday. Hopefully you can do the same Friday too? I hope you're not worrying too much about your families. Still in my thoughts 💫
Oh no my love, it's not for him it's for ME 🤣 literally the second he leaves I made everything OCD level clean so I can enjoy it while he is away. Ultimate luxury for me hehehe! I am strange, I know 🙈

Raizelrea · 08/10/2019 13:02

@claireb707 Rubbish, I can relate, mine's pretty strong too this month - thankful for ibuprofen ☺️ Hope it eases off for you soon!

@Katie1109 You're halfway there ☺️ I get breakouts on my breasts when I work out more than usual so could be that, not sure if I've heard of it as an implantation symptom but nothing's impossible.

@Gigi318 I'm ok thanks, just trying to get on with things. Going to be working from home on Thursday so looking forward to that as I can take things at a more mellow pace!

Haha your OH is lucky! I did a big clean when OH went on his stag do in spring but that was more so that I can be smug when he gets back hungover 😄

Gigi318 · 08/10/2019 09:27

Morning lovely ladies, how are we all?

@claireb707 oh chick, sorry to hear that! Hope you have a restful week planned. Have a lovely dinner tonight with some wine, it might make you feel better!

@Raizelrea how are you feeling today chick?

@Katie1109 that's good, you're half way through now. All sounds good to me, as Rai said before, symptom spotting before 10DPO is a bit pointless, so that's all reassuring. Hope this will will fly by for you!

I'm feeling good today. Quite tired after a few hours of cleaning yesterday (am I the only one that does that? Full on scrubs the house, changes the sheets, and washes my hair when OH away so that everything is clean and pristine 🤣) so my evening wasn't all that relaxing. I was just shattered! Also really hungry, which is annoying. But now the wait pretty much will start for me. Still a few twinges here and there but nothing major. Watery CM, still not spotted any EWs!

Katie1109 · 08/10/2019 09:15

@claireb707 so sorru af arrived hun x I hope the pain will ease off really soon x just take couple of days to relax and stay positive for the next cycle x
How are we doing today ladies? CD21 for me today, so around 7/8DPO. No real changes, boobs still really sore and heavy x my OH pointed out that few outbreaks appeared on my boobs, which I have never seen before, but it might be just due to sweat and exercise x couple of twinges here and there in my lower back/side, but nothing I would class as any kind of symptom x 7 days to go, af due 15th x

Currently feeling like I've been kicked in the belly by a horse 😢😢 not great to cope with at work

Raizelrea · 08/10/2019 08:16

Sorry @claireb707 I hope it's relatively painfree and swift so that you can turn a new leaf this cycle!

claireb707 · 08/10/2019 07:02

Period has arrived 😢

Gigi318 · 07/10/2019 21:45

@Raizelrea oh that sounds absolutely perfect, what a gem he is! Exactly what you needed this evening. Heaven! He is, yes. He will be back soon though! Hopefully it flies by. Yes we did three days in a row and a few last week, so hopefully that'll help! And we can resume when he is back too 🤣

Raizelrea · 07/10/2019 21:16

@claireb707 Thank you, good to hear your spotting stopped, hopefully there will be a better turn of events for you!

@Hewie30 Good to hear you're well and thank you! It's been a challenging time but I'll be fine. Don't worry about your age, you've hit one of the good years when your birthday falls on a Friday ☺️ Nice to hear the hands off approach is putting your mind at ease, I know you have hesitations and that it feels like less control but taking a step back is useful sometimes.

@Gigi318 Thank you ⭐ OH made me a lovely three course meal and we're now just chilling out by the fireplace with loads of candles. He is such a good one ☺️ Is your OH away now? I'm sure you'd managed to DTD plenty so a couple days of shouldn't do much harm 🤞

Gigi318 · 07/10/2019 20:40

@Hewie30 that's so good. Woohoo, I knew this month would be a good thing for you. Hope you're DTD regularly just to be sure. How exciting.
Arghh yes, and that's the problem 😩 really don't want a new build as we're so used to be out in the middle of nowhere! We're in a barn conversion now. But we will get there. Funny the pressures we put on ourselves, hey!

Hewie30 · 07/10/2019 19:57

@clare707 Bless you, the good thing is he's now a ex and your with someone now who wants the same as you 😊.

@gigi318 Most definatly! I feel calmer this month for sure. I've not been fussed about doing opks and I'm usually on point with doing them. We'll see where the month takes me 😊. Help to buy is so good! Erm I don't believe you can, I think it's only for new builds 🤔

Gigi318 · 07/10/2019 19:48

@claireb707 that's the spirit chick! Always silver linings. And your little bean will join you soon, just you see!

claireb707 · 07/10/2019 19:23

Oh I am definitely with the best man now, couldn't be happier in that regard 😀 and a little one would just make it even better
