@NamechangeTTC I've also been eating Brazil nuts since @Boc86 recommended them.

I am sure I've read pomegranate juice is good to thicken the lining but I could be wrong, I'll need to look it up.

Boc86 · 11/08/2020 18:31

Hahah Brazil nuts are fine to tolerate but Jesus the seed cycling is rancid
6dpo, got my 7DPO bloods tomorrow
Very very sore boobs yday, little better today but I get this every month with progesterone after ov

PinkRoseFlower · 11/08/2020 18:30

Thanks @candycrush2298 I will definitely pick up a couple tomorrow then :)

@NamechangeTTC yes @Boc86 is an expert in these nuts lol!!! I have also heard that pineapple core from 1dpo to 5dpo is really good not sure how true it is.

I hope your tesco has tests mine just has Clearblue. When testing early stay away from blue dye tests once you have gotten a positive on other tests then blue dye is fine but when testing early you can never tell if its an evap or real positive. Thats why they famous for false positives

I’m off to buy Brazil nuts after hearing they can help implantation. I’ll have a nosey in Tesco at tests too.

@NamechangeTTC I think you will be fine with the tests you have or do a poundland/home bargains run hahaha. Another really good early test is the superdrug early tests but I haven't been able to find them near me forever!!!

I know the feeling of being so sure this is the cycle and the dissapointment is so tough

@snapple21 hey😊 I agree this group doesn't of ours needs some uplifting hahahahah!!

I definitely think that you are ovulating your temps have raised though havent they?

Its weird because my intense ovulation pain also hasn't been happening do you think our bodies change with age? Like I wonder if its because I am getting older hahaha or if its because of the vitamins and maca root. Weird though lol.

I am also with you on the testing early. I dont want to test early this cycle either.
Are you going to wait until AF?

OP posts:
NamechangeTTC · 11/08/2020 17:22

Fingers crossed for you @snapple21 we are about the same stage app says 6dpo here. I didn’t temp but got a peak LH which I haven’t had before.

I have both the femometer strips and the solid ones in cases @candycrush2298. The easy@home would have been perfect. The other ones said 25 which confused me!

I’ll look again tonight. No real symptoms of anything. I was so certain our last cycle - cramps, implantation bleed

snapple21 · 11/08/2020 16:59

Just checking in. Really hope we see some lines soon! We have a distinct lack of them in this group! Haha. Surely odds are we get at least one this cycle!!!
I'm 5 days po. No symptoms. I start getting progesterone symptoms at around 7 days po based on the last two cycles. My boobs hurt, I cramp and feel nauseous etc. So we will see if this happens this cycle. I've started convincing myself I haven't ovulated then last two cycles cause I haven't had intense ov pain like I have before. My temps seems to suggest I have ovulated though so we will see.
I really don't want to test early as I convince myself I can see lines.

@candycrush2298 you give me hope. I keep staring at that evap hoping and praying its real :(

candycrush2298 · 11/08/2020 15:03

@PinkRoseFlower yeah I have used them they seem perfect actually. If you use the just check i bought both brands they have one of them is a single test for £1 which is 6days early (they are 10miu) and then there is a twin pack also for a £1 and they are 20miu I bought both and think they are great no evaps or indents when I emptied out my bathroom bin I saw the tests a few days later and they had absolutely no evaps on both so I would say go for it. I know @Kaybobx has also used the 3 strip test pack for 69p and think those were OK as well? So go for it grab them lol!!!

@Elakiya according to Dr Google it should be high soft and closed. But I have read many many posts where women said they had their bfps and only at about 6/7 weeks into their pregnancy did the cervix actually go high again.
So if yours is low dont feel bad you're not out and if it is high then that's excellent news!!!
Really really hoping AF isn't going to show for you xx

Elakiya · 11/08/2020 14:57
  • as my cervix is low and hard
Elakiya · 11/08/2020 14:55

@PinkRoseFlower Thanks, although I am not so sure as my cervix and I vaguely remember reading a post from @candycrush2298 saying it should be high and soft was it? Cramping as well so I can feel that AF is due very shortly.

PinkRoseFlower · 11/08/2020 14:45

Has anyone tried pg tests from home bargains before? I was going to nip there tomorrow for some stuff and thought I may as well pick up some cheap tests but not sure if they are any good. Will probably order a pack of frer on amazon too.

candycrush2298 · 11/08/2020 14:29

@NamechangeTTC I think wondfo is early cant remember been a while since I searched those lol. But yeah if easy@home was in stock those would have come tomorrow. The femometer ones you have are they the strip tests are the proper tests in plastic casings? If they the cheap strip ones go ahead and play with those when you ready to test lol!!! At least you have FRER those are your best shot at detecting early but they expensive so hate wasting those lol!!

OP posts:
NamechangeTTC · 11/08/2020 14:20

Oh I use prime too. I just couldn’t find any that said they’d measure at 10ul rather than 20 so didn’t order.

I have 3 femometer early ones and 6 frer sitting.

candycrush2298 · 11/08/2020 14:10

@NamechangeTTC exactly what @Kaybobx said we use Amazon Prime for everything 🤣🤣🤣 I watch loads of series and hubby and I order so much from there that Prime is perfect for us. Hubby also gets loads of things for his gaming with the his Prime membership - who knew lol!!! We also get Amazon photos with unlimited cloud storage to store all our photos since we both into photography the cloud comes in handy and its all part of prime hahaha and I get one free ebook a month with it too. So yes definitely use the shit out of my Prime lol!!!

@Kaybobx its all so exciting!! Yes this group needs a shower of baby dust and we need some bfps!!! Ooooh OK thank you eeep can't even wait I am just so hopeful for you!!

Can't wait to see those pretty pink lines ladies😍

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 11/08/2020 13:59

@NamechangeTTC we use Amazon Prime. If you dont have it you can get a 30 day free trial and cancel after if you wont be using it. I literally buy everything on there so its worth having for me.

@candycrush2298 i love this week when everyone starts testing too. We are defo due some luck in this group!!
I'll let you know how tomorrow's test goes.

NamechangeTTC · 11/08/2020 13:51

I couldn’t find any cheapies that would arrive this week Sad

@NamechangeTTC that is typical progesterone (post ovulation) CM so you are all good. CM isn't any indicator of pregnancy unfortunately but at least you know for sure you are in the luteal phase. Good luck I am so excited to see if you get your BFP!!

@PinkRoseFlower thanks hun let's see if this works out hahahaha I am always keen to try these new things lol!!!

Ooooh getting so close to test day can't wait to see!!!

@Kaybobx ooooh that's a really nice comparison with the wondfo vs stupid one step ones. Yeah I have read excellent reviews on them. So think you have a great alternative to easy@home. Let us know they go please tell you going to test with one of them tomorrow eeeep can't even wait!! And yeah totally agree wouldnt want to spend another £15 either lol!!!! I am soooo excited I love this time of the TWW when everyone starts testing!!!! Eeeep!!!

Kaybobx · 11/08/2020 13:31

@PinkRoseFlower thank you! Im with you on the grumpiness and being sensitive. I think thats just me in general though haha

Kaybobx · 11/08/2020 13:29

@candycrush2298 ive just read the reviews on the wondfo ones, they dont look too bad. Some people have posted photos next to the cheap blue ones with faint lines and the one stop ones with nothing.
Ive brought some of those haha.
I have millions of opks so didn't want to waste £15 on easy@home

PinkRoseFlower · 11/08/2020 13:26

Fingers crossed your tests turn to bfp's in the next few days @Kaybobx and @Elakiya.

You seem all set for your new cycle now @candycrush2298! Really looking forward to seeing if this soya things works for you! I so hope they do! Sending positive vibes your way!

When is everyone else testing? I am still holding out until Thurs or Fri. I still don't feel any symptoms... Apart from being very grumpy and sensitive the past few evenings which is typical PMS! 😂

NamechangeTTC · 11/08/2020 13:23

Checking in guys

6dpo

TMI alert. Weird milky pure white discharge today in pants. Black underwear so it’s very obvious. Any ideas?

Definitely think I’ll buy the soy next cycle!
