@Annny27 yes I do.. only cheap ones tho once every month or two. I was going to do one tomorrow morning but I've just had a bit more spotting (strangely always seems to be after a bowel movement 🧐) so deffo don't think I'm PG - all tho if it's AF then that powder has deffo regulated my cycle for month 1. Time to order my 2nd pot and see what goes!

@Gems7 how odd!! Warm water shouldn't make it BFP should it? Wee is warm?! Xx

Annny27 · 20/09/2020 21:19

@gems7 thats soooo weird!!! So sorry you had to go through the torment of seeing a bfp and then it going again at the next test :(

Maybe there's still hope i am so confused for you!!!!

Gems7 · 20/09/2020 21:03

@Annny27 oh hun I'm so bloody confused I don't know what the chuff is going on!!
So.. yesterday CD28, no spotting.. (my cycles are always usually 28/29 days with spotting before like you)
Took a cheap test, put it on the side of the sink, cleansed my face whilst I was waiting, went to look at the test and i had knocked it into the sink and the tap was running on it.. took it out.. clear BFP
Thought.. shit!! Surely not.... 🤨
So I did another couple throughout yesterday (including a FRER) and a couple of cheapies today, all BFN not even a hint of a line.. so the warm water yesterday must have caused the BFP somehow .
CD29 today though and still no spotting, even DTD this morning which I thought would bring it on.. but nope!!
I'm not pregnant, the FRER was blatantly negative and I was 12DPO yesterday when I did it, it would have shown up!
My cycle must be all messed up after the chemical maybe. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hope AF's not too shitty for you hun!
Hope all you girls have had a lovely weekend xx

Annny27 · 20/09/2020 20:52

@PrettyTulip interesting! Do you take pregnancy tests every once in a while juat to make sure? Given that your periods are random

@gems7 @Missgoldilocks did AF arrive or are you still in with a chance??

PrettyTulip · 19/09/2020 19:54

@Annny27 you take it 2 times a day, every day. Today marks 4 weeks I've been taking it, I spotted a little on Thursday evening and then nothing until about 11am today when I had another spot & now nothing again.

Sorry AF has arrived for you my lovely xx

Gems7 · 18/09/2020 21:02

@Annny27 I'm sorry 😞

I'm having AF cramps too so mine is on its way
Big hugs all round girls xx

Missgoldilocks · 18/09/2020 20:15

@anny27 actually I think my period is going to come at the right time on Sunday because I'm having my usual af symptoms. Sorry af came 🥺 xx

Annny27 · 18/09/2020 16:07

Hey girls :D cd1 now, AF has arrived 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ onto cycle 47568? Haha onto month 16/17 I think and cycle 10 since miscarriage

Not dtd everyday this month, that was insane, gonna do every other day just gonna relax a bit (she says.....) haha

@gems7 new kitchen will be lush 🥰🥰

@missgoldilocks any symptoms since your bloating?

Missgoldilocks · 17/09/2020 21:59

@Gems7 hey lovely xx I know it is so sad I keep banging cake to make myself feel better! Then I cry that I'm fat lol gosh I don't help myself. I'm 8dpo today I think af due on wednesday instead of the normal Sunday as the medication I took changed it. Oh exciting!! New kitchen ❤️❤️

Gems7 · 17/09/2020 21:00

Hey girls, where are you all in your cycle? When's AF due for everyone?

I am CD26 AF should be here by the end of the weekend (I think 🤷🏻‍♀️)
Feel fine, no AF symptoms, no pregnancy ones either. Just going to patiently await my appointment with the fertility clinic. I haven't been obsessing over TTC this month. Don't feel any better for it though just sad really. Sad it's taking so long 😏 just trying to do lots to take my mind off things.. OH taking me shopping for a new kitchen this weekend and I'm excited 😬

Big hugs girls xx

Annny27 · 17/09/2020 09:31

Morning girls:) feeling a bit better now after my crying session haha!

@Missgoldilocks the emotional stress is huge isnt it! We have been all chatting on here for a year now! Its crazy

@PrettyTulip do you take the powder the whole month or just untill you ovulate?

PrettyTulip · 15/09/2020 17:09

@Missgoldilocks hello lovey. After all this waiting around we're doing it's good to have them off days where you just eat crap. Don't beat yourself up over it.

@Annny27 totally get where you're coming from. Everytime I see someone friends/family wise I dread them pulling out the pregnancy card! It's hard to be excited for someone if they are experiencing what you've wanted for so long.

I'm 3.5 weeks into taking that powder. No idea if it's doing anything for me but I deffo had lots of CM (not sure if EWCM tho) which has now cleared up. I stopped checking for LH when I realised I was struggling TTC so I just go with the flow now but don't think I've had lots and lots of CM for a while... we'll see. I've got swollen feet, sore boobs and keep getting random twinges in my belly/pelvis so I'm hoping something is happening whether it's a bean or AF Wink

Missgoldilocks · 15/09/2020 14:41

@anny27 80 percent lol that made me laugh. Ahhh it's so hard isn't it because you want it so bad and people are just falling pregnant twice over while we are still trying. Just try and be supportive and maybe open up to her about it all. Sorry you had a cry but glad you feel better xxx
I dunno I'm dreading another month of this just feels like it'd not going to happen and I can't take the emotional stress it's sooo hard. I'm 6dpo today and nothing but really bloated, I stayed at my friend's over the weekend and we ate so much crap though so I'm putting it down to that.

@Gems7 how are you? Xx
@PrettyTulip hey how are you doing? Xx

Annny27 · 14/09/2020 14:18

@Missgoldilocks thanks lovely! Had a massive cry this morning and now i am ready to take on the world again

This sounds really silly but i am meeting my friend who has a 2 year old on the weekend and I am 80% sure she is gonna announce she is pregnant and I am gobna have to fake the excitement. I am happy for her obviously if she is but its so painful to hear isnt it.

Its not even happened and I already making up scenarios she might not even be 0regnant 😂😂😂

TheDaydreamBelievers · 13/09/2020 23:30

Currently 6DPO here! First time I've ovulated since coming off the pill so crossing my fingers

Missgoldilocks · 13/09/2020 19:13

@anny27 I'm sorry 🙏 😩🤗 I know its sad and depressing and so hard to just keep on going with the hope just to get shot down honestly I know. I'm just sorry and I know there's not much I can say but I'm here with you in this battle xx

Annny27 · 13/09/2020 17:53

11dpo and had some slight brown cm 😔 so i think that's me out! Even with the progesterone I am taking which is annoying! Will take thek for a few more days untill 14dpo but pretty sure its me out now

Feel so shit and depressed today

Gems7 · 12/09/2020 20:22

@Annny27 it's just bloating and cramps for me but nothing unbearable xx

Hopefulmummie · 11/09/2020 22:19

Hi everyone. Hope you don't mind me joining.
I've came to the end of my 2ww
My AF is due today and normally comes bang on time with spotting the day before but I have had nothing except very very light staining this morning. Took a test yesterday and it was negative.
It's very strange that my AF is not on time has this happened anyone else? Light staining on day AF due?

Annny27 · 11/09/2020 21:54

@gems7 thata promissing that each time you have had different symptoms and non symptoms etc.

Before AF my boobs get smaller than they have been in the tww and my cm dries up a bit. But nothing too noticable! How about you?

Gems7 · 11/09/2020 10:17

@Annny27 4DPO for me, also nothing. I haven't felt "pregnant" both times I have been though. What are your usual tell tale signs that AF is coming? Do you get any?
November is only just around the corner, will be here before you know it, I may still make a private appointment yet, who knows how long the nhs one will take, she said there's a waiting list xx

Annny27 · 11/09/2020 10:01

@Gems7 that's really promising:) I csnt get referred to nhs fertility untill November so only 2 months away now i guess!

9dpo for me and no symptoms just normal tww but then again I wouldnt expect symptoms so early

Gems7 · 11/09/2020 09:59

@Annny27 I have spoken with the GP this morning and she is referring me to the fertility clinic. I think it's just a waiting game now.. I really hope it's not a long one though xx

Gems7 · 10/09/2020 20:11

@Annny27 Thanks hun xx

Annny27 · 10/09/2020 14:37

@gems7 I contacted my local private hospital because they have a fertility specialist there (who is also my local NHS consultant for fertility). So not technically a specific fertilitt clinic.

I would just google subfertility specialist and then where you live and hopefully there will be someone nearby!
