End of November, jump on board pt 2!

Hi! Hope you're all well🥰

Hey guys!! sorry been awol since the OH came back.

@Skygirl1983 I'm with you, AF arrives the week before Xmas so if she does then I'm just enjoying the festivities. I'm fond of a few drinks so I'm not sorry to say I'll be getting shit faced 😂 Then back off the beer in January and we start this crazy stuff again!

@mellymoo86 that's ridiculous! I run a surgery and I know receptionists get a raw deal but they cant offer you and appt and then change their mind! If you've not asked for an emergency appt it can be about whatever the hell you like! and I'd seriously query that 4 minute rule, sounds ridiculous!

@mellymoo86 why are the receptionists so rude! I'm like no offence love, I want to speak to someone medically trained, not just someone that answers the phone. Not that I'd ever have the guys to say it!
I got my DH to march in there the other week, they wouldnt listen to me, but him, as the son of the local recently retired pharmacist got the answers straight away.
Luckily for a non urgent appointment I can now book it all online.

Good luck @mellymoo86 ! 👍🏻 hope it all goes well.

And sorry about AF @mrsio but you get to speak to us lunatics for a bit longer so woohoo! Xz

Hi everyone - mind if I join?

I'm 7-9 DPO (I think) not certain exactly but CD23 (though, my last AF stopped after 2 days, started again then stopped after another 3. Weird!). I'm hoping someone else going through this TTC minefield will have some advice for me. I came off DEPO 6 months ago and previously no periods on that for 9 years, so I can barely remember what's considered 'normal', but I am back to a regular cycle now.

I've had some crampy pains/ heavy almost pressure-like feeling really low down in my uterus for the last week, since ovulation I think. Also lots of CM and very 'wet' feeling which is unusual for me. I have had heartburn and back ache on and off too and when that got really bad yesterday I convinced myself I was PG and took a FRER. BFN, obviously as it's clearly too early. What do we all think?

Any advice/support very happily received!

Thanks @Skygirl1983. Yeah I'll carry on. If we're successful next month I'd find out after my Christmas nights out but before Christmas. I'm not a big drinker anyway so I'm not bothered about not drinking on actual Christmas. It will be nice to be able to drink for my nights out tho. A BFP just before Christmas would be great. It's also lucky I ovulated a bit late last month coz I've got a business trip the week after next that was due to be right in over ovulation. But those 3 days it was late have pushed it to the weekend luckily!

Not had chance to read through properly but just thought I'd let you all know AF got me. I'll be hanging around tho x

@Skygirl1983 yeah we are both going, hope it goes well. I'll update you after it.

@Skygirl1983 that sounds lovely, I still need to book a weekend getaway. Just haven't had time.

What sort of questions do you think I should ask. I was going to explain how long we've been trying (longer than I actually have), explain when I ovulate, how long my cycles are, both generally fit and healthy. I want to check his sperm, and my ovarian reserve/quality of eggs. And then she what they advise.

@Skygirl1983 yeah exactly! Next time I'll say it's personal, don't know why I didn't. Hopefully I'll snap out of it so I go in with a clear mind, still got a few hours so it's ok.

That's a good idea so you aren't stressed over the holidays, or you can just dtd every other day roughly between that time and not track anything. Although I know it'll still be on your mind.

@Skygirl1983 mine hasn't arrived yet, looks like it might be Saturday or Sunday as expected. It's our date night tomorrow so knowing my luck that's when it'll be. I'm fuming right now, just had a screaming match with the receptionist at the GP. No offence to receptionists but why are they so bloody RUDE. They treat me like I'm some chav calling in for a appointment every 5 mins.

Called ydy and was told to call today, so waited by the phone and called them at 7.59am. She said I can book you in for 2.30pm so confirmed it and asked for the reason and I said conception and she said what? And I said conception, my husband and I are trying for a baby, then she said hold on and cut me off, put me on hold. I knew at that moment she was going to tell me some BS. Came back and said I can't book you in, it's not considered important so you can call back on Wednesday. So I went ape shit on her...not important NOT IMPORTANT!!! As far as she knew I could have been trying for years or had miscarriages who the heck is she to tell me that. So I said I want to see a doctor! Then she said no and I said YES! Then she said but I'm going to put on the notes that I advised against it, I said do what you want to do I'm seeing a doctor today, she said I'll have 4 minutes and I said I WANT TO SEE A DOCTOR!

Anyway I've stopped trembling from anger now. All hell is going to break lose if I go in and they're mean to me. 😏

Ovulated yesterday and didn't share the bed properly with my hub since 4 days. Yes We dtd the day before yday but it was not a proper one. We just did it. Sorry tmi but I dont think any sperm would have managed to reach vagina. 😔😔

I'm feeling worst! I didnt dtd during ovulation. I'm feelin so bad. I m already out this month. I hate me. I had thought of getting pregnant atleast before my first anniversary. 😭😭😭😭

Pretty sure AF is slowly making her way into my life 😔. That’s me done for the year then, new year, new ttc journey, new baby hopefully

Morning all!!! Good luck to everyone testing today 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 @Skygirl1983 Definitely leave early today 😊 make sure you have something warm for that cold. I've got a new mattress being delivered today, got to do the food shop and work...but we all know I won't be doing the latter 😁

@mellymoo86 so cute 🥰

@Maisy24 no AF yet, should be here Saturday or Sunday. Yeah he did miss me, he said he wasn't sleeping properly when I'm not by his side 🥰 so cute.
