@mrsio Thanks so much for the heads up. I’ll see how it goes the next few days. I don’t want to get my hopes up.. secretly feel a bit sick with excitement that I could be ❤️

Weird because yesterday and Thursday I felt so sick, and I’m not a sicky person at all. But I just thought, no it’s too soon to have symptoms 🤣

mrsio · 21/12/2019 14:38

@MrsH0692 5 days before AF is perfect timing for implantation and if its light it's defo a possibility. If it stays light I'd be tempted to do a test in a few days x

MrsH0692 · 21/12/2019 14:28

If I’m honest, I’ve only been tracking my AF for the last 4 months since I came off the pill. And they normally are fairly regular give a few days, only ever been a day or 2 early.

Compared to my normal AF, this is much much lighter and no other symptoms other than the obvious!

I didn’t even know there was such thing as implantation bleeding, I’m sorry I must sound so clueless!!! 😂

mrsio · 21/12/2019 14:06

@MrsH0692 is it defo AF? Could it be implantation bleeding?

Vipie · 21/12/2019 14:05

Afternoon ladies @MrsH0692 has that ever happened before? Sometimes your cycle can switch itself up. Oren I used to be due around 3rd with a day or two different, but after a year and a long wait fir AF cycle charged to 15th

@MrsH0692 do you have irregular periods normally?

MrsH0692 · 21/12/2019 13:50

23 days. Was due on Xmas day.

MrsC89 · 21/12/2019 13:47

@MrsH0692 5 days early? How long was your cycle?!

MrsH0692 · 21/12/2019 13:28

My AF arrived this morning 5 days early 😢

Roll on next cycle! 🤞🏼

Blondeandbroody · 21/12/2019 13:12

@mrsio thank you lovely ❤️ I'll keep testing! Win win for me as I don't mind either way if it's ovulation or AF coming! It just means something is happening x

mrsio · 21/12/2019 13:03

@Blondeandbroody you can get a surge on these just before AF so it could be either. I would carry on testing at least once a day in case it's ovulation x

Blondeandbroody · 21/12/2019 13:03

@sojo44 it's infuriating!! One and the only plus side of my OH not wanting another baby after we have one together is that I won't ever have to come off the pill again!!

Blondeandbroody · 21/12/2019 12:59

Help!

So I've just taken an OPK, Randomly on day 34 since stopping the pill and I got a line?! Premom says it's low.

I am hoping it means I'm due to ovulate but at day 34 it seems so random!!?

Could it mean I'm due my AF soon tho?

I'll be happy either way to be honest I just want my body to do something it's supposed to so I can start having a realistic chance of making a baby!!

I'd love for it to mean I'm ovulating soon as me and OH have time off over Christmas so plenty chance to DTD 😂🥰

Any OPK experts out there that can advise?

I got pregnant really quickly after coming off the pill last time! I used the ovia app last time and will use it this time too.

sojo44 · 21/12/2019 08:13

@Blondeandbroody omg I was exactly the same after coming off the pill! The side effects were unreal! I thought it was all pregnancy symptoms as well but I guess just a crazy change in hormones. I do enjoy being pill free now though ☺️

CD7 here! It feels like it's going so slowly (yet Christmas holidays are zooming by)! My last two cycles have lasted 6 weeks, so potentially over a month still to go! Though after this AF I've got little cramps here and there 🤷‍♀️ maybe my body is trying to OV a bit earlier for once!

How's everyone spending their Saturday?

Blondeandbroody · 21/12/2019 07:20

@OkyDoke hopefully your transition off the pill is smooth for you x you could try tracking ovulation to see if and when you ovulate. I wish I had done that to give myself the best chance at conceiving straight away but I sort of just winged it. I'm now on cycle day 33 from stopping the pill as I stopped it the day I got a period as I had them still while on the pill, for the most part. I'm getting BFNs so dunno if I ovulated or not! Perhaps I did and we just didn't catch it. Hoping my AF comes soon but could be a while still heard it can take ages for the first one to come!

OkyDoke · 20/12/2019 23:37

Thank you @Blondeandbroody! It seems forever since I did this, I need to remember how!!

Blondeandbroody · 20/12/2019 23:33

@OkyDoke you're in the right place! Welcome! X I only stopped the pill 4-5 weeks ago x

Blondeandbroody · 20/12/2019 23:33

@Mum2boyss haha yes it certainly does send you a bit crazzzzy! Fingers crossed lovely x

OkyDoke · 20/12/2019 23:26

Not sure I'm in the right place, but stopped the pill on Saturday so officially trying ttc baby 2! Apologies if incorrect thread!

Mum2boyss · 20/12/2019 22:17

It's happened with my son 5years ago but I have had a few were it's just evap line, so I no it's probably just thatbut u no when ttc this stuff sends u wappy and u cling on to tiniest little thing haha.
Going to do another in morning and see what that brings lol xx

Blondeandbroody · 20/12/2019 22:13

@Mum2boyss I had that on 2 and they weren't squinters and I'm not pregnant I think it's probably evap. I have read stories of people who have had it and been pregnant but I don't think there's a link as I wasn't pregnant... depends on what kind of test and what colour the line is etc maybe x

Mum2boyss · 20/12/2019 22:07

I no ur not meant to go back to look at test after but my one from last night has a squinter on it I'm sure 🤔 currently sat on my bed shining my phone light on it at all different angles to see if I can see it more.
Think I better take myself off to bed before I pop an eyeball out 😂

Blondeandbroody · 20/12/2019 20:38

@SophomoreMama it's tough! Coming off it is no picnic either had so many symptoms of pregnancy which seem to just be side effects of coming off the pill ☹️☹️

Your body will get into a groove with it soon x if not go back to your doc for advice after a few more months maybe
