@Rainbowhope11 thank you ❤️ Yes I’ve got a second opinion for Tuesday. I know it sounds bad but I’m not keen on my gp- she’s fobbed me off in the past. And you’re right I am so not up for waiting about for three months. Enjoy your bd :) xx

MichT4 · 31/07/2020 20:05

@SmileyT no that's not peak looking, the one earlier was super dark (as was yesterday's) and was 1.12 on the app so I think that could have been it. That last one was mega diluted. I'd drunk loads all day so the fact it was still that dark made me think it could be peak underneath all the liquid. I don't know why I took it but I did 😂 I'll try and do another tomorrow before we head off.

MAFS is on E4, definitely get on it. I was so sad when we finished new girl 😭.

SmileyT · 31/07/2020 19:53

@Firevie yep you'll definitely be covered if you DTD the next couple days aswell 👌🏾 and yeah don't drink if it's going to make you anxious but still it's your choice nobody else's, but in FW best to stay friends 😂

@Lollol86 yes fingers crossed you ovulated soon and into the TWW x

@MichT4 I'm finding it annoying that I can't wear tights at the moment so having to shave my legs all the time, one thing I do prefer about winter 🙈 I feel like I'm always saying this but I don't plan on doing much, DP wants to bbq tomorrow and I'll probably finish new girl 😭 ooh I keep meaning to ask actually, what do you watch MAFS on? Also I reckon that opk looks dark but not quite peak x

@Hayleylou89 glad everything went well and hope you're home soon x

2020wish · 31/07/2020 19:44

@Hayleylou89 glad all went well! Fingers crossed for a continue healthy rest of ur pregnancy x

Hayleylou89 · 31/07/2020 19:19

Still here girls but all went well just waiting for the numbness to go from my legs and also remove the catheter 🤦🏽‍♀️, then i need to make sure i can pee on my own, so might be tomorrow im out but at least all went on, justbelly and backaches now that im have paracetamol drip for so hopefully that kicks in soon and eases this throbbing type pain xx

Thanks for ur well wishes 😘

MichT4 · 31/07/2020 18:54

I just did an OPK for an absolute laugh because since I last went for a wee I've had 3 glasses of prosecco, a pint and a half of Diet Coke and a fizzy water, and it looks like this. I think possibly it's another peak today, but as we know that means nothing!

@Firevie good work on DTD! Men are so fickle 😂

@SmileyT they were bad, I was disgusted with myself anyway, but going out in shorts when my friend was training with me was the motivation I needed. Obviously she didn't go anywhere near my legs but still...saved me doing it for today!

Much planned this weekend?

@VP91x hope you're enjoying your dinner party xx

@HopeForRainbowbaby it just shows how quickly things can change xx

HopeForRainbowbaby · 31/07/2020 18:45

@Lollol86 I had negative opk this early morning ( 10%) until steady smiley from cb at 11:00!
@Rainbowhope11 it looks like we are twinning on ovulation ;)

Should we the same as last month and note when everyone will have periods or will test?
I'm cd 12, ovulation expected cd 13 and period expected on August 15.

I have also been losing track on the forum btw. So forgive me ladies 😘

Pugprincess · 31/07/2020 18:31

@Lollol86 yes cm in the am with flashy face then static by pm about 12 hours between tests XX

Lollol86 · 31/07/2020 17:55

@Pugprincess did you get a flashy face the same day as the cm? Xx

Lollol86 · 31/07/2020 17:53

@SmileyT that gives me an idea of timing. I know everyone is different but hopefully I should ovulate in the next few days

Pugprincess · 31/07/2020 17:25

@Lollol86 just checked my info and u had lots of ewcm on Sunday morning when I had a high fertility flashy face on cb then 12 hours later by evening it changed to peak xx

Firevie · 31/07/2020 17:15

@SmileyT ahhh this makes sense then why the premom app jumped to peak! Ok well looks like I peaked yesterday and today but it’s already gone down this afternoon. I DTD yesterday so in my peak, this afternoon and will do tmr and Sunday also just to have all bases covered. Tbh the drinking comment is still annoying me but given I may be in my TWW period now I may hold off a drink. Its not like I drink a lot or need to drink anyway I just thought it was a lovely summer day so I said I would but currently too hot so drinking grapefruit juice lol but will def have an ice lolly later haha xxx

SmileyT · 31/07/2020 16:45

@Rebecca1992 yes this would be my first, I've not been sick in about a week, although just feel hungover all the time 🤢 ahh twins would be great, I didn't even know you got early BFPs with them, that's an interesting fact x

@Hayleylou89 ahh I'm glad you are being looked after, hope everything went well today x

@MichT4 can I just say how impressed I am that you shave yourself legs to train in your own house 👏 perfect weather for your staycation 😎

@Firevie sorry if I've missed this already being said but premom won't log it as a peak until it sees the next test and it's lower so it catches the highest one as your actual peak so because your next test was lower it would change the previous one to peak and yes it can change really quickly (you may have had a peak day before if you didn't test or it was quick), there is no issue with testing with FMU and I'd DTD Friday, Sat, Sun if you're up for it. Personally I didn't give up drinking, so I'd definitely be annoyed if OH said that to me, I hate it if he ever throws it back in my face that I've said I'm going to be 'healthy' 🙈

@Mommybear05 im so sorry you are feeling so low and totally understand your frustration, would you consider going private to get some initial tests to put your mind at ease or have some info to pass back to Drs? X

@Lollol86 I would normally ovulate 3/4 days after I saw it but think everyone is different (the most annoying answer in ttc) x

Sorry just caught up on 3 days so this has probably ended up long, so sweaty on the tube today but thankfully had a wax so at least it was less sweaty downstairs 😂 hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine x

Lollol86 · 31/07/2020 16:38

@Firevie yes but again he will think he has won but you are doing it for another reason 🤣🤣 men don't have a clue that we always have a hidden agenda 🤣🤣

Firevie · 31/07/2020 16:28

@Lollol86 haha exactly that! Thanks for your service DH lol! But now I feel like an idiot as now that we have done it and the app says I’m on my peak I will probably hold off drinking haha! Ah well ice cream for me it is then xx

Lollol86 · 31/07/2020 16:20

@Firevie yes and the best thing is he thinks you have just given in when really you had an agenda 😂😂

Firevie · 31/07/2020 16:05

Ladies just an update - decided to just grab DH and DTD lol! Make up sex after an argument right?! Lol

Rainbowhope11 · 31/07/2020 16:04

@chloedancer897 okay I'll try again later😊 the problem is I've been drinking so much water at work, by the time I come home and test it's too diluted 😂 I'll just dtd all weekend and hope for the best 🤞🏼

Firevie · 31/07/2020 15:51

@MichT4 do it! We also want to get a puppy but will hold off until we have a house as currently living in a flat.
Also, I just took another OPKS (actually two because the first one went into my pee beyond the max line but didn’t make a difference as both strips look the same). Now it says 0.6 and low when in the morning it was 1.85 and peak. The premom app has also now adjusted so that apparently I had my peak yesterday and today. So, my question for you knowledgeable ladies: 1) can it go this quick ie peak at 7.30am and down to low in the afternoon? 2) does the morning pee falsify test results? 3) bear in mind I did not test on OPKS the last couple of days so I don’t know if it was leading up to my peak yesterday and today 4) we DTD yesterday so I guess that’s good if the app is anything to go by. Should I DTD today and tmr as well for good measure? Xxx

Lollol86 · 31/07/2020 15:49

@Northernsoul90 I'll keep DTD and continue with tests and see what happens. CD14 today really hoping it don't keep me waiting too long xx

MichT4 · 31/07/2020 15:40

Guys, I am really tempted to buy a puppy. Can someone convince me either way? I need to know if it's too much hassle or it would be lovely? Help!

@Lollol86 strange with the low OPK but it could peak at any time xx

chloedancer897 · 31/07/2020 15:37

@Rainbowhope11 I got my peak on CB from FMU and didn't get my peak on an OPK until much later in the day. Try testing again later?

Northernsoul90 · 31/07/2020 15:10

@chloedancer897 I hope so! 🤞🏼🙏🏼

@Mommybear05 So sorry that the doctors have been useless you must be really frustrated 😣. Totally understandable wanting to have some time alone, sending lots of hugs 💖

@Lollol86 Definitely looks like EWCM! I would take that as peak, I think some just don't along with us as much as other strips. Maybe dtd over the next few days if you can to keep covered xx

calimommy · 31/07/2020 14:59

@Mommybear05 sorry the thread moves so fast I don't keep up much with it, but I wanted to comment on your spotting.
After my second MC I spotted for weeks and weeks. In total it was about 12 weeks. I was tearing my hair out but it eventually stopped and I was able to conceive quickly.
Then after I stopped feeding DS2 once again I had ongoing spotting problems, but this time I started taking Vitex Agnus Castus. I can't say if it was the cure or a coincidence but my spotting stopped and within the month I was pregnant again. I used it again after that last MC and I think it helped to get my hormones back on track.

I'm sorry if this is wildly unrelated to your problem, I did have a little scroll back but there are so many messages! X
