@falkor32 sperm can live for 5 days so don't worry hun. I think the best thing to do is relax. When I saw my GP a few weeks ago she told me not to have sex as much as I was during my FW and to naturally DTD 2-3 times per week whenever those days may be, as the sperm are much stronger. Who knows if that's accurate but I've seen women on here bet their BFP when they thought they were out because they DTD a few days ago so don't worry xx

falkor32 · 13/11/2019 07:12

I just got my static face on CB digital with my FMU, today is C11 😳 We DTD yesterday AM, tried again this morning but it just wasn’t happening. Will I be covered if we try again tonight? I am completely thrown and don’t wanna to mess up my chances ....

Ellsbells112 · 12/11/2019 21:18

@Robbo93 it's a herbal thing I actually have it because it helps with pms but I havent started it yet. You can get it anywhere and its not expensive, it might help like I said it makes short luteal phases longer, it levels out your hormones and helps with progesterone I believe. Look it up babe see what you think? Its like 6 pounds for the pill form on amazon x

Someone who had pcos said she took it on her first cycle trying and conceived (might be coincidence, might not!)

Robbo93 · 12/11/2019 21:11

@Ellsbells112 it appears so, but neither the doctors nor the hospital think it's an issue 🤷‍♀️
I'm having the bloods done to see if I ovulate.

I've never heard of it tbh hun. Where do I get that?

Ellsbells112 · 12/11/2019 21:04

@Robbo93 so your luteal phase is too short to hold a pregnancy basically? That's what I've been researching, who knows. Have you tried agnus castus? It helps make shorter luteal phases longer. You might as well give it a go?

Robbo93 · 12/11/2019 20:48

@Ellsbells112 yes same. Was just getting changed and noticed my nips are a little tender too, greaaaat 😔
I usually start spotting 6-8DPO with full AF around 8-10DPO. I can't pinpoint when exactly I Ov (if I even do...) as didn't track .. just going by symptoms x

@Gems7 .. I had day 21 bloods the other day too. Gotta go when AF arrives for another then day 21 again next month x

Gems7 · 12/11/2019 20:14

@Anny27 big hugs mrs, you're holding it together well xxx

@Ellsbells112 I'm not testing until AF doesn't show either, only like the day after but I'm still going to wait until it is late (if that even happens)

I have CD21 blood tests at my GP in the morning

Good luck everyone, getting close now! Xx

Ellsbells112 · 12/11/2019 20:06

@Anny27 stay strong 😘🤗 hot bath will help of the cramps come again xx

@charlie0692 I'm ok feel fine literally. Trying to still hope for a bfp x

falkor32 · 12/11/2019 20:04

Hope it all goes as best as it can for you @Anny27 Flowers

charlie0692 · 12/11/2019 20:03

Hey @ellsbells112 I think af is about to arrive. Had on off cramping all today. One tiny bit of brown spotting and that's it. Af due thursday but I think it's going to arrive tonight 😔 how are you?

Anny27 · 12/11/2019 19:55

Hey girls :) thanks for the well wishes!

Had my medical management tablets this morning and the miscarriage has started! Was quite painful crampswise this afternoon but seems to have settled a bit. I think the worst is yet to come but hopefully it doesnt take too long!

Some of you will be testing on the weekend so not too long 🤞🤞

Ellsbells112 · 12/11/2019 19:52

@Robbo93 I'm okay I've just gotten to that point of obsessing now!! Urghhh I just want to know or start again. The 2ww is torture honestly! When would you normally start spotting? Xx

falkor32 · 12/11/2019 19:52

Have any of you ladies ever had a cycle where you ovulated way sooner than you expected?

I’m on CD10 and today was my first day of a flashy face on the CB digital OPK, which is about right. Suddenly this evening I had a large amount of EWCM so did an IC (as I do both) and another CB - still a flashy face but a definite rise on the IC from this morning (low to high). Last two cycles my static face was CD15 and CD13 with FMU the IC picking up on the start of surge the evening before when I had large amounts of EWCM.

Perhaps I’ll have my LH surge tomorrow evening on the IC and static smiley on Thursday (CD12) instead ... Aaargghh I dunno what to think, this has really thrown me 🙃 .. We DTD this AM luckily but I’m a bit freaked out!? Not sure how to play this one 😬

Robbo93 · 12/11/2019 19:49

@Ellsbells112 yes I'm fine my lovely. Hope you are too?!

I think I'm 8DPO today (CD27) expecting spotting/AF to arrive anytime soon... no symptoms to report from me either x

Ellsbells112 · 12/11/2019 19:46

@Robbo93 thank you!! How are you? Xx

@gems7 it's true, I've found out I was pregnant only once I was 6 weeks before lol I had not an inkling before! Once you're really trying it literally is all you can think about! Urgh! You've got a way to go yet, gotta keep busy!! Its so hard 😓
I dont know when to test, I'm scared so I'm thinking I should test if af doesnt show! Maybe Saturday morning? I just want these last few days to vanish now lol

The only feeling I have is lots of wind and I had headaches on 8dpo and 9dpo but that's not solid could be for any reason xx

Gems7 · 12/11/2019 19:33

@Ellsbells112 hey babe! Ooo not long now then for you.. I really really hope this is your month. No symptoms isn't a bad thing at all. If we weren't TTC we probably wouldn't notice half the stuff we spot anyway would we. What day are you going to test?
I don't really have any symptoms to speak of either apart from yesterday in the car on my way home from work I felt some sharp intermittent stabby type pains in my right boob, then again twice today. Only lasting less than a minute each time but I don't recall that happening before.. unless it has and I've ignored it. I think I'm 6DPO today so not very far along and probably wouldn't have implanted yet either, so who the hell knows. I'm trying so so hard not to obsess and fantasize but it's so difficult when you want something as bad as this isn't it. It's all I think about 😣

How's everyone else getting on?

@Anny27 how you doing lovely? I hope you've been getting lots of rest and cuddles Xxx

Robbo93 · 12/11/2019 19:28

Fingers crossed 🤞 for you @Ellsbells112 xx

Ellsbells112 · 12/11/2019 17:49

Hey guess how is everyone? @Gems7 @Laur89 I'm getting to the last legs of the 2ww now and starting to get nervous. No symptoms to speak of as such, I'll be waiting on the af cramps that should start from Thursday if my af is to arrive on time for fri/sat. Here's to hoping the witch won't show!!!! 🤞🤞🤞🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😬😬😬😬

@charlie0692 any update on anything? X

Togstiree · 12/11/2019 12:46

Very unsettled. Period was due yesterday, did a test for a PFN but still feeling very sick every day since about Saturday. Did u test too early? Used a clearblue test..

charlie0692 · 11/11/2019 17:13

Hope your ok anny! So lovely of your manager to give you the week off! I'm 11dpo today, af due 14th but think I'm out this month. Tmi but I had some cm yesterday that had some brown in it, not alot just a bit when I wiped (as wel as some pains on off throughout the day). Caved and done a frer this morning, bfn! Not that I'm surprised! And just before had pains on off today and again some more cm that's brown, only when wiping before (none this morning or early afternoon). Got a feeling af is slowly arriving 😫 x

Ellsbells112 · 11/11/2019 12:14

@anny27 awww enjoy babesssss that's so awesome that your manager has been good, you really need as much support as possible in this!

I am currently going mental cleaning and loving it! Btw some buy bunk beds 🙄🧐 changing my sons sheets was a workout in itself!!

Anny27 · 11/11/2019 11:17

My manager has been so good and i have this week off

Ellsbells112 · 11/11/2019 10:57

@anny27 sorry girl ❤❤🤦‍♀️ still have a relaxing day and try not to think about it? Sorry I know that probably doesnt help x

Anny27 · 11/11/2019 10:55

Ahhh they couldnt do it today as someone forgot to do a blood test at my appointment at Friday so had to have it done today and then go back tomorrow. I had sort of readied myself for it to happen today and now have to wait 😪

ChampooPapi · 11/11/2019 10:34

@Anny27 I hope you are home and dry now, just wallow, it helps I can assure you. Let us know how your doing when you can 😊
