Morning ladies! How are we today?

@Katie1109 how are you doing chick, FW yet??

@claireb707 oh chick sorry to hear that. But at least you have your holiday to enjoy. Take some tests with you just in case AF doesn't show as it may just be too early! Katie is so right, stay positive and try to enjoy your break. Then it'll be go-time again before you know it, or maybe AF won't arrive 🤞🏻

@Hewie30 and sign of AF? Are you testing?

Welcome newbies! How are you all?

claireb707 · 27/09/2019 07:42

Sunday and am on holiday from tonight so great timing

@claireb707 so sorry hun x when is your af due? Don’t worry about it, we are all in the same boat and here to support each other x I know it’s gutting, but remember you need to stay positive, keep your head up and move on to the next cycle x I hit rock bottom when I had my mc, but it’s so important not to give up x lots of love and hugs to you x

Me but I got a BFN this morning 😢 sort of expected but still gutting

Banoffeepie91 · 27/09/2019 06:55

Hello! Can I join?
Had the coil taken out in June and 3 cycles since then but so far nothing. AF started yesterday so now into cycle 4.
I know I’m still really early on but getting a bit disheartened already.
TTC our first. I’m in my late 20s but OH is 40 so hoping this doesn’t have an affect on anything.

Hey girls 😆 thought I'd keep up to all the gossip! 😁😁

Bab2019 · 26/09/2019 19:58

Hi,

Can I also join, me & my husband are TTC. I came off my pill 2 weeks ago. I feel awful, so hoping I get AF soon so I can start tracking a bit more.

Be nice to have some people to talk too.

Makeafamily19 · 26/09/2019 19:55

Welcome @Itsemily 👋🏼

Gigi318 · 26/09/2019 19:53

@Hewie30 I was kind of doing okay, and now the blood is drying up I'm like 👀 but like you say, not long to go now. Well, AF has been pretty much the same for 4-5 years but maybe I'm just looking into it more? I feel like I really am questioning everything 🤣
That's a longish time to wait, but hopefully it will get shorter now you're off pregnacare. If I remembered that right?

GaaaaarlicBread · 26/09/2019 19:47

Hi, please could I join?
My husband and I are beginning TTC, I had my coil taken out today. We do not have children so it is all very new.

Hewie30 · 26/09/2019 19:42

@gigi318 Haha! I bet, waiting for the fertile window and the tww is the worst isn't it 😂. Awh has oh had man flu? Hopefully it should be fine before your window time comes up, it's not long 😍. Haha! Your AF can get shorter though, before I came off the pill my periods were 5 days and now their like 2 with 2 of spotting 😂.
Aaaah that's so easy to do that!! You question everything with your body. Your not being a dick lol!!
Erm if I ovulated late it would be CD27 cos I got another peak on CD26

@Flossy12 This is the new group hun! 🙋

Gigi318 · 26/09/2019 18:22

@Hewie30 yes, that's exactly how I am at the moment. But also itching for this bleeding to stop and OH to be rid of man flu now. Roll on Monday and then the 6th-8th 😬😍👏🏻🤣 Yes day one is insane for me. But I usually do 4-5 days I think. Even earlier I was thinking like what if this isn't AF and I MC one of a twin? I am genuinely going mad I think as I'm paying so much attention to my body right now. Hopefully this is my month so I can stop being a dick 🤣🤞🏻
Eek 40 days! Let's hope this is it for you! If no, would you ovulate around CD20 or still 2 weeks after the start of AF? Or later perhaps?

Hewie30 · 26/09/2019 18:06

@Gigi318 It tires you out thinking about it doesn't it 😂, that's why I've changed my attitude to whatever will be will be and it'll happen when it's meant to. That's good! Day 3 and not alot of blood, sounds like the first days the worst for you?
Yeah I'm cd40 today 😂🙈, hell of a long cycle this month!

Gigi318 · 26/09/2019 17:14

@claireb707 oh that's good. I'd still test in the morning maybe and you can then just do the FR when it arrives. Will you be saving FMU?

Gigi318 · 26/09/2019 17:13

@Hewie30 oh this is good news. So what CD are you now? 40 odd surely?? It's so annoying when you think you've got away with it and then it appears. Although, I feel like it's stopping already. Barely any blood today 🤷‍♀️ and today is day three. But can't complain! I am well, feeling a little tired after a crazy week of 'am I preg or wait no - hey AF!' 🤣 how are you today?

Hewie30 · 26/09/2019 16:58

@gigi318 Thankfully she has! Hopefully she'll stay away these next few days too 🤞. Oh really? What a sneaky AF!! That happened to me last month I came on at 10pm and was like what the?! How are you today?

claireb707 · 26/09/2019 16:57

FRER ones ordered arriving tomorrow, hadn't realised the ones I had weren't the frer ones

claireb707 · 26/09/2019 16:50

Oh are they not the frer ones? Oh poop

Gigi318 · 26/09/2019 16:32

@Makeafamily19 I agree, I wasn't sure out of those. I'd go FRER but for tomorrow maybe go with cheapie @claireb707 and you can always order a FRER? Not long to go now 🙌🏻

Makeafamily19 · 26/09/2019 16:19

Oh actually I don't think that's an early response one is it? Just normal first response. So not as sensitive. Avoid the clear blue as I've seen lots of ambiguous results on the threads with those. Blue dye isn't great and can run/ evap a lot.

Clearly I've been reading too much on these threads 😂

Makeafamily19 · 26/09/2019 16:16

@claireb707 FRER are better but more expensive. If you really want to be sure I'd use a FRER. Or just a cheapie first then a FRER to confirm next day lol. Probably what I'd do.

Gigi318 · 26/09/2019 15:51

@claireb707 hehehe I'm not sure. What does everyone think??

claireb707 · 26/09/2019 15:46

Or all of the above 😂😂
