CSG (Thread 1)

@namechangettc I have the same issue around arranging drinking days... I'm trying not to drink at the moment at all (except my wedding day the other week) but it's hard. It's not too bad at home as I can get round that quite easily and tbf we haven't been out recently anyway!

@candycrush2298 😂 I'm from Yorkshire which is probably why I'm not totally obsessed yet as I can't justify the price of the tests 😂😂 and that's why I've not bought an ava bracelet either 🙈 to be fair, looking at the prices on ebay I reckon you'd easily sell on again, but I still can't justify it when I've just paid for a wedding 🙄

Hopefully we'll all get BPF soon.

I've just been feeling light headed so come for a snack, which is not like me (I should say the snacking is, feeling light headed isn't!!)

I’m more worried that I’ll impact on implantation then blame myself if the month hasn’t worked. Will see! Will text on Friday as have some drinks planned that night

I’ve freaked myself out reading about alcohol impacting implantation @candycrush2298 so I’m behaving for now.

Sore boobs today. Not sure if this is normal in my cycles!

Welcome @Welliedays

Very tempted by the soy @candycrush2298 I might try those next cycle.

I’m so lost as trying to plan stuff with friends and the whole alcohol thing is a challenge. I’m a drunk!

😂 Thank you! I already feel like I want to be obsessed, but don't want to put the husband off... We've never had more sex than the last couple of months, and maybe if I obsessed he wouldn't be as keen 🤷🏼‍♀️ I did over test last month, so that might be a sign of what is to come (I've also kept the BFP as I keep questioning whether it actually happened, even if it didnt stick). I've been watching ava bracelets on ebay too... But I don't know if I want to pay the money yet.. Maybe if the next couple of cycles aren't successful... I am trying to keep postivie even though I know how hard it is for most people

@candycrush2298 I am just sick of tww's. Urghh. Anyway need to focus on exams I have 350 hours of studying to do, and I've done nothing :(.

Maybe do some more research before you take this thing though. We don't want to mess anything up.

Hi girls, please can I join your chat, I've actually been following your previous threads but haven't been able to register... It turns out I'd been autoblocked for some reason, but now we're all good! Just as a bit of background about me, we thought we'd start trying last month as we had our wedding day and we're having our reception next year, so would love for a little one to appear in between (I know that's a big ask!!). Anyway, I thought we'd done it last month and the first of trying, I got a really faint BFP the day my period was due... And then had a bad bleed and a negative after, so it must have been a chemical (this happened a week before the wedding). But we've got back on board and have tried again this month. I'm not tracking as don't want to appear too obsessed yet as my husband will totally think he's married a crazy person 😂 but I'm on my tww now and I'm already hating it! Does anyone else find themselves touching their boobs willing them to be sore?! My boobs were so sore last month which is what gave it away for me and prompted me to test!

@candycrush2298 True, AF is only a week away so we'll see how that goes. I don't think this soy thing should wreck your cycle. I think it will just improve your egg quality. Fingers crossed for you this month :)

@candycrush2298 This is what that poster had said "Hey ladies, I'm also in the TWW (AF was due today) but I actually got my BFP a few days ago on a ClearBlue digital (and now I'm a whole new level of feeling anxious!)...after almost a year of TTC we were very shocked as was losing hope. In case it helps any of you long cycle ladies I tried soy isoflavones this month - it's dubbed the 'natural' Clomid, which I'd been prescribed but had put off taking as wanted to do everything possible naturally first. I O'd 7 days earlier than cycle before and I'm sure it was stronger than normal because I had an instant temp rise whereas normally I have a very slow rise. Would definitely recommend looking into them if you want to bring O forward to shorten cycles. It's obviously very early days for me, but just wanted to share in case it helps anyone else x"

@candycrush2298 I will definitely be trying it next cycle too.

@candycrush2298 This was posted in a thread called "long cycle girls" or something like that. Therefore I am guessing they would have had irregular cycles and therefore trying to conceive for a while. I'll have a read of that thread and see if I can work out when she had been trying since.

At this point I genuinely don't think any of my symptoms are actually pregnancy symptoms lol. I genuinely think I might just have erect nipples due to this cold/flu type thing and I think I got that due to not taking antihistamines.

@candycrush2298 I don't think it matters if you take them in the evening/night. As long as you get it in your system from cycle day 3 - 7 I think that's fine

@candycrush2298 The poster got a successful BFP on the first month of doing this. Hopefully if you can have it tonight you could do 3-7? Omg I am so excited to see how this goes. I will try this next cycle too.

@Elakiya you and me both. I've just had a handful of chocolate pretzels because I saw them in the fridge even though I had breakfast 45 minutes ago!!

@indecisivewoman81 Awww, I know how you feel. I am becoming quite teary and upset. Also I am an emotional eater so this is genuinely not helping my PCOS :(
