@MichT4 I think you get a dip pre ovulation or on ovulation day. I've forgotten which it is 🤔🤔

Still flashing away like the smug bastard that it is... Will do a cheapie soon just doing a wee hold Xx

Morning (just!)

How are you all today? @VP91x how are your OPKs doing?

I'm in a world of further confusion. I thought I'd be updating you on a big spike this morning, as I was seriously overheating last night, but nope, dipped again. OH asked last night how my OPKs were and I said I'd stopped. He looked confused so I took one just now, still showing high. AND, guess what just showed - EWCM! Maybe I haven't ovulated yet....maybe. Told OH we needed to get to it today. I mean, I'm not getting my hopes up, but maybe something did cause delayed ovu, and like you said @VP91x, maybe my body has tried a couple of times.

Who bloody knows anymore Confused

Confused.com

Based on last Mc period not due for another 6days Hmm but started to bleed today. If there was ever a subject that should have been part of our curriculum this is deffo one.

Hayleylou89 · 16/06/2020 09:18

Morning girls! Anyone testing soon :)

Excited for u all!

@2020wish hoping that lines stronger today for u 🙏🌈💙💖 x

HopeForRainbowbaby · 16/06/2020 07:57

@2020wish have you taken another test ?👌

So I have lost count on BFP on this chat as we have got many which is very good sign ☺️

Diorissimo1985 · 16/06/2020 07:15

@1990EM thank you - no I’m not on any medication for RA, it is super mild and I had honestly forgotten I had it as I’ve had practically no symptoms for about a year!

VP91x · 16/06/2020 06:26

@Rainbowhope11 maybe take some paracetamol at least? Don't suffer too much!

Yeah, this TWW needs to get here ASAP we have done it 5 times in 7 days and I am getting tired 🤣 xx

Rainbowhope11 · 16/06/2020 06:20

@VP91x oh that's good that you're feeling better😊 yeah hopefully soon! I'm sure you're getting tired of dtd🙈 I kind of got over it towards the end last week 😂

I usually take an ibuprofen, but I read somewhere that it can interfere with implantation, so I'm hesitant to take any. I could be suffering for nothing here, but I don't want to take a chance. No pain no gain 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

VP91x · 16/06/2020 06:13

@Rainbowhope11 definitely no chance of giving up the OPKs 🤣

Ah yeah I hope I don't have to wait until Thursday, but let's face it there is nothing I can do about it 🙈. I feel better now thanks, it went the next day thankfully!

Oh no way, do you have any migraine tablets? I hope the sleep helps it get better. Migraines are the worst xx

OP posts:
Rainbowhope11 · 16/06/2020 06:07

@VP91x me too!! My Obgyn was telling me to just relax, and throw the OPKs out and forget about them. I just nodded, but have no intention of giving up my OPKs 😂 I can't imagine doing this all blindly!

Oh dear! These bloody CB flashys can drive us insane can't they?! Hope that peak comes very soon for you! Fingers crossed it's Thursday or sooner 😊 how is your tummy? Are you feeling better now?

I've had a dull migraine the whole day with some nausea. Trying to get my last bit of work done for the night before I hit the bed, but my head is killing me!

VP91x · 16/06/2020 05:56

@NightDreaming that seems like the right thing to do for you, just to see if there is anything you should be aware. Hopefully everything is okay and they can offer you some more support. Hope you are ok xx

VP91x · 16/06/2020 05:55

@Rainbowhope11 haha, this better all work then! I'm on Day 8 now of flashy on my CB.. 🤔

If I'm the same as last month then I will get my peak OPK on Thursday! Xx

Rainbowhope11 · 16/06/2020 02:16

@Diorissimo1985 sorry that you didn't get any conclusive answers lovely, and I hope that the next pregnancy is successful! Sending you love Xx

@VP91x hahaha that's funny because I also had my legs up against the wall last week🤣🤣🤣 I went to see my Obgyn today and he said that I should dtd every second day from day 10-18, at night (so i can lay down and keep everything in) and also told me to put a pillow under my hips after! So see, we are not so crazy and seems like we are all on the right track here 😂🤣

MichT4 · 15/06/2020 23:47

@NightDreaming definitely contact your GP. It’s not a waste at all!

@saim86 my first period wasn’t heavy either. Maybe one or two heavy-ish days but the others were very light. Also had a false start where I for bright red for a wipe (sorry, tmi) and then disappeared for another day. I think they can be heavy and painful, maybe depending on how far along and if any tissue remains etc. but not sure it has to be like that. Might been a month of not ovulating, again not sure. I’m sure the ladies here will have more knowledge xx

Saim86 · 15/06/2020 23:40

@MichT4 I haven’t really had a period just some light spotting around 27 may so hence we weren’t actively trying as I’m waiting on my period due to it being so light I was told to expect a very heavy and painful first period before I go back to my normal light periods

NightDreaming · 15/06/2020 23:31

@VP91x the change I’ll be doing this month is going back to GP to see what they say. When I had my second MC they said to come back if I had a 3rd and they would look into it. I was trying to stick to that, didn’t want to waste NHS time & money, knew I could get pregnant as have two kids already. Big having clicked it’s been 3 years I’m not going to wait any longer. Want all the tests I can to find out what’s going on.

1990EM · 15/06/2020 23:00

@Diorissimo1985 feel for you so much. Are you on any medication for your rheumatoid arthritis? If so maybe phone your pharmacist in the morning to check none of your meds interact with aspirin if you are thinking of starting it. if taken in the wrong circumstances it can cause platelet issues and increase risk in stomach bleeding when taken with some other types of medication. Hope you soon get some answers and help xx

VP91x · 15/06/2020 22:26

@Diorissimo1985 wishing you all the luck for this month!! ❤️❤️ I hope if you do fall pregnant again you dont suffer another loss.

I know @2020wish is taking aspirin so she might be able to shed some light on it.

OP posts:
Diorissimo1985 · 15/06/2020 22:22

@MichT4 @VP91x thanks, not sure when referral will be - apparently quite a wait Sad
Talked about it with DH and we've agreed to try again this month and brace ourselves for another loss, but know that it will lead to referral at emc.
Going to chuck everything at it this month - anti-inflammatory diet, extra folic acid, omega 3, yoga, and have made appointments with acupuncturist and reflexologist 😂
I think I might just start on the aspirin as it doesn't seem to do harm? Does anyone know when I should start on that? Understand it's the low dosage one.

VP91x · 15/06/2020 22:16

@Wishingfornumber2 @MichT4 haha super glamorous! Xx

OP posts:
MichT4 · 15/06/2020 22:13

@VP91x 😂😂 living the dream this TTC isn’t it!?

@saim86, maybe wait a couple of days and try again. Then you’ll know for sure either way. Sorry if I missed it but do you know when you’re expecting AF?
If it’s not your month then just see it as a nice full reset for next month xx

Saim86 · 15/06/2020 22:10

@MichT4 no they are on the same day so maybe it’s not my month after all......fingers and toes crossed for next month and we didn’t really dtd every other day as we had redecorating going on

Wishingfornumber2 · 15/06/2020 22:10

@VP91x loving the legs up on the wall 🤣 x

Saim86 · 15/06/2020 22:08

@Niisa I am beginning to think it’s from last month as when I tested after mc I only used Lloyd’s and it had a faint line retested with Lloyd’s and Clearblue and was negative this month the only ones picking a pregnancy a frer I’m either early or it’s from mc but I did feel cramping deep in my uterus about a week ago

VP91x · 15/06/2020 22:05

@MichT4 yeah he's now arguing about something with his friends on the game 🤔🤔🤣

@Diorissimo1985 oh I'm so sorry you got that news! I had no idea rheumatoid arthritis could affect the body like that. How do you feel about continuing to TTC? When would you be able to see the specialist? X
