@Anny27 I had a thyroid blood test done a couple of years ago (as I have high blood pressure) and it came back normal.

Funny you mention it though as I have been reading up about under active thyroid etc recently and i do have a lot of its symptoms. Apparently the lower readings on a bbt can indicate it when sometimes blood can still show as normal x

Hey girls! Cycle day 5 so period ending today and then back to the DTD marathon haha 🤣

@Ellsbells112 @Gems7 totally, in the tww my google history is embarrasing! "Left nipple looked slightly darker at 8am than it did at 7.59am - pregnant? " 🤣🤣

Hope the tww goes quick for you both!!! Are you gonna early test or wait it out?

@Robbo93 has your GP done any thyroid checks?

Gems7 · 30/01/2020 19:18

@Ellsbells112 that's so funny 🤣🤣🤣 i swear if anyone saw my google search history they'd think I was a complete nutter!!
I do the same as you, look up the same stuff I've already looked up 87 times before haha
Xx

Robbo93 · 30/01/2020 18:27

@Ellsbells112 hello chick! How's you?

I'm not sure at the moment, I've had a few days of spotting.. sometimes pink, sometimes orange, sometimes red but only when I wipe 🤷‍♀️

Ellsbells112 · 30/01/2020 17:45

@Gems7 it's all consuming isn't it? Babe I'm literally sat here scouring the Internet about stuff I've already looked up for the past 6 months lol god it's not even funny. Yup, I had trapped wind and I was like what was that!!! 😂 Is that a babyyyyy urgh no it's awful I want it so bad as well 😩

I'm actually 4dpo I ovulated on Sunday. My apps are telling me Saturday because of my temps but I was getting flash faces even on Sunday but Sunday evening I got a solid face along with loads of ovulation pain 🤷‍♀️ we've got agggges to go. I've been stuffing OH with loads of vitamins, mainly zinc and cq10, hoping his sperm will turn super saiyan (dragonball z reference) xx

Gems7 · 30/01/2020 17:37

@Ellsbells112 yep I'm same as you then! It's on my mind CONSTANTLY 😏 is it my month? Is it not? What was that twinge? Do I usually feel that? URGH! So annoying. I really really really want a baby. Try so hard aswell to relax but it's just not in my nature. When I want something I usually obsess over it until I get it, don't like things being out of my control 🤯

How are you hun? Anything to report so far? You're about 2DPO is that right?

I'm 3DPO so way too early for anything relating to pregnancy. Had some achy moments in my left ovary area and had the spotting Monday and yesterday which I'm assuming was OV spotting therefore hopefully a good sign I've actually ovulated.

Long way to go for us both yet though (yawn)

Xxx

Ellsbells112 · 30/01/2020 15:05

Hey @Robbo93 how's it going? Has your af come??

@Gems7 how are you? I feel like I'm going mad already haha x

@anny27 how are you xx

Gems7 · 27/01/2020 21:32

@Robbo93 I can't even imagine how frustrating it must be for you being in limbo like this! I really hope AF comes pronto, and you get some answers at your next apt xx

Robbo93 · 27/01/2020 20:29

@Gems7 aww thanks for checking in on me sweetie! I've had a couple of pinky spots today (which is more than I've had the last 60 days lol) but no full flow yet xx

Anny27 · 27/01/2020 19:41

@ellsbells112 @Gems7 you girls and me have opposite cycles haha!! You guys in the tww and me just started period.

@ellsbells112 I have no idea how you feel your cervix, I don't have a clue what I am feeling for!

Ellsbells112 · 27/01/2020 19:33

@Gems7 yeah! It is nice we are right on top of each other in time :) I really don't know when I've ovulated I haven't had a clear indicator and I'm still getting pain. But I know you can get pain after ovulation too so who knows. Probably ovulated last night/today I think, my cervix is hard again so 🤷‍♀️ I'm gonna BD anyway just in case lol xx

Gems7 · 27/01/2020 19:26

@Robbo93 any more pink mucus? 👀 xx

Gems7 · 27/01/2020 19:24

@well I've had OV pains pretty much all day and after work at 5:30pm ish I noticed ovulation spotting which I've never had before actually.. so I know I've ovulated at some point today, we have just DTD (7pm) "just in case" .. I hadn't done it since first thing yesterday morning. I'm hoping Ive ovulated later in the afternoon and not this morning.. then those sperm have time to reach that egg before it buggers off 😃🏊‍♂️

I don't know how to check my cervix 🙈 I'll have to watch some YouTube videos haha

It's nice we are both in this at the same time this month, really hope this is our month!!
Let the TWW window commence 🤯

Xxx

Ellsbells112 · 27/01/2020 14:08

@Gems7 I know and it's the constant guessing game!! Like when do we have to do it etc it drives me up the wall!! I don't know because you're using the other ones right? So on my ones (to give you a vague idea) when I get a solid face it stays on the little device for 2 days because once you get the solid face you can ovulate up to 1-2 days later (I think) just BD again this evening I say. Also a good indication for me that I'm not fertile anymore is when my cervix comes down and hard again xx

Gems7 · 27/01/2020 13:56

@Ellsbells112 yeah I'm getting fed up with this shit too!
Letrozole would have an impact I would imagine.. could possibly delay ovulation aswell.. you just never know do you!!

I had a positive smiley yesterday morning and a blank circle this morning.. does that mean I'm ovulating today? I've had OV pains this morning.. do you always get pains before ovulation? Or can you have them after it?
we DTD yesterday morning, I wanted to to it this morning really but OH was being an ass.
Do you think I should DTD when we get home from work today? Is there any point now? Don't know if I ovulated yesterday or if it's happening today..
when I google it, it says you ovulate the day after the LH surge.. which would be today.. (or possibly last night)
Aarrgghhhh So frustrating!

@Anny27 it's so hard I know 😞 and no matter how hard you try not to it's all you can think about! Xxx

Ellsbells112 · 27/01/2020 13:34

@Gems7 hahaha I only know because last month it happened and I was temping while doing opks. I was like wtf!? Haha but actually this cycle has confused me. I got a solid smiley last night, I decided to do a opk because I was getting loads of ovulation pain so we dtd of course but this morning my temp hasn't shot up its just higher than the others but so was Friday and Saturday and I know I didn't ovulate on Friday, my cervix is still high etc and opks. So I researched a bit and apparently this medication I'm taking can fuck your temperatures loool I was like phew ill just keep bding then! My cervix is still high and soft this morning and I had more ovulation pain soo ill just dtd this evening to make sure. Fingers crossed there's some bloody luck this month!! Starting to get soooo fed up with this shit!
Are you 1 or 2dpo now? Xx

@anny27 I'm sorry ❤️ I know it's really crap 💩😟😟😟

Anny27 · 27/01/2020 11:58

Yep @Gems7 only 2 weeks till ovulation I guess! Plus we are going away this weekend so I can use the hotub 💗💗

I am feeling low about it if I am honest, just want a baby, it's hard!

Gems7 · 26/01/2020 12:18

@Anny27 sorry AF came 😟 on the positive side, ovulation day is getting closer again now, so you can get cracking again! Xx

@Ellsbells112 how do you get your solid smiley once you've already ovulated? 😱 I didn't even know that could happen. You're so much more educated than I am about it all 😁 I'm so glad you're here, you're a fountain of knowledge!

@Robbo93 He was only watching football and playing darts with the lads and the pub is literally 5 minutes away from where we live.. haha but at this time of the month he does as he's told 😂👌🏻
I don't really know anything about temping unfortunately, I've never done it. I did buy a thermometer but then forgot to do it every single morning before I got out of bed, I don't think I even remembered once 🙈

Xx

Anny27 · 26/01/2020 11:36

AF arrived! No wonder I was feeling moody and grumpy this morning!!! Onto the next cycle 🙄

@Robbo93 continue taking it over the next few days and if it stays high for 3 days that can indicate ovulation 🤞

Robbo93 · 26/01/2020 10:56

@Gems7 omg that's hilarious! Don't think my DH would make a special trip home to DTD haha 😂

Soooo CD66 for me today. I've had a little bit of pink mucus this morning too.
This has been my temps this week. All in the 35 degree region apart from this morning which was 36.10 (I've been taking my temps a bit earlier then I did this morning - but all have been when I've woken up) what are your thoughts?

Early December testing?
Ellsbells112 · 26/01/2020 09:14

@Gems7 like I said it depends everyone is different, I get a solid smiley once I've actually ovulated! So today I've had another flashing smiley and tomorrow I'm hoping I get a solid and a bbt rise to confirm ovulation. Its great that you've got a solid though, dtd for the next 3 days I'd say! Just in case :) and yeah the apps are wrong they just estimate I don't go on the apps anymore I just input data needed and use it as a loose guide, before I was dtd as soon as I saw green lol and I ovulate at the end of the green days haha xx

@anny27 Ahhh sorry girl hope it stays at bay for you xx

Anny27 · 26/01/2020 08:58

@Gems7 @Ellsbells112 especially the close it gets to ovulation, the least sexy haha. DH has said "let's get it over with before dinner" in the past 🤣🤣🤣

BFN for me at 14dpo today so guessing I am out! I can feel AF coming too and having brown spottint

Gems7 · 26/01/2020 08:07

@Ellsbells112 😂 it's so not sexy at times is it!

I've just got a solid smiley face on the OPK's, I could actually cry right now! I must ovulate later than my app tells me I do. I am CD15 today

Big hugs to all you girlies

Ellsbells112 · 25/01/2020 23:09

@Gems7 😂😂😂😂😂 you're so funny!!!!! Hahaha that's hilarious, satisfaction at its finest! Last night was far from enjoyable LOL it was really hard for me to enjoy it! Urghh then I was drinking the wine getting in the mood and we've had to go somewhere quickly 🍷🙄🙄 when I get back in the house I'm downing a glass and telling him to get his ass to bedroom!! No ewcm for me today just yesterday but no. Bbt rise either xx

Gems7 · 25/01/2020 22:37

@Ellsbells112 it was such a comedy moment!! "Right babe, job done, can I go back to the pub now? I was in the middle of a darts game" 🤣
Of course pal!! (Whilst I'm led with my legs in the air like phoebe from friends) much obliged 🙈🙊 xx
