August might be pact might be madness part 2

@SS123456 my mum has an under active thyroid so that might be worth looking into! Thanks for mentioning and sorry about your BFN 😔

@kirinm @MrsB2019x still bleeding this morning, nothing on a pad overnight and it's still pretty light, although there was a weird clot when I wiped first thing, so I'm 95% sure it's AF.

Sorry to hear about your BFN Mrs B! We're definitely in need of a BFP or 2 in this thread, it's been a while 😟

@kirinm Yeah taken a final test this morning as AF due tomorrow, BFN 😔 Glad you’re on the way to OV! Are you feeling better now you know when it’s coming?

Any update on the bleeding @whambam89?

Me and DH had a really big talk yesterday about TTC, he is really struggling with it all too. He’s missing the baby we lost and struggling with us not catching again. Not sure what we’re going to do to try and ease the stress but think he’s feeling a little better for getting it off his chest

Sorry to hear you got a BFN @SS123456 :(

How are you today @whambam89

Are you testing again today @MrsB2019x

CD11 and still a negative OPK but it's getting darker so I think I'll get a peak either tonight or tomorrow.

I'm 11DPO (AF due tomorrow) and had a BFN on a cheapy and a FRER this morning. I was hopefully there was a chance as my bbt had gone up 0.2 since yesterday and my resting heart rate is the highest it has been in a year but no such luck 😔

@whambam89 I have been speaking to a holistic fertility specialist this week as my LP is too short and she said it sometimes happens when there is a thyroid issue. She recommended I take a medi checks thyroid test just to be sure and rule it out. I'm not sure if that could help for you too?

@sansa87 I'm just so so fed up with it all, feel like it's never going to happen for us. If it was just the cramps with no bleeding I'd perhaps be more optimistic, I just don't know what to do with an 8 day LP - I could literally cry about how short it's been this month 😭

I know there's a chance I could wake up tomorrow and the bleeding would have stopped, or not got any heavier, but there's also a chance I'll wake up to heavy bleeding.

I've basically spent my spare time googling implantation bleeding this evening and I'm still none the wiser, despite reading about 527 different websites / threads.

@whambam89 I’m ten weeks and still get those sodding cramps I got from 6dpo.

My mum has always said “hope for the best, but expect the worst, & you will never die of a broken heart” bit dramatic, but reading between the lines, it’s a good motto to follow

@MrsB2019x I'm trying to convince myself that it could be but at the same time know that it's pretty unlikely. Have been out with a friend for a couple of hours to try and take my mind off it, still only light pink bleeding, no clots but still getting cramps as well (I don't usually get cramps once AF has started so maybe that's a good sign, but maybe I'm just clutching at straws!) I'm just at a complete loss if it is AF because how am I ever supposed to get pregnant with an LP that short? 😭

@whambam89 Light pink definitely sounds like IB to me. Everything crossed for you!

@whambam89 Aww I'm sorry AF might have shown. It does seem early though so hopefully it's IB? I'm a google nightmare! Every twinge and I'm on there looking for an explanation 😂.

@MrsB2019x Test again when AF is due. Hopefully that test was just faulty and you tested a bit early 🤞🏻

I'm doing ok. I had my scan last week and everything seems okay so it's just a waiting game now. It seems to be that way at every stage of this process!

Fingers crossed tightly for you @whambam89 x

@sansa87 @MrsB2019x thanks girls.

I take a cocktail of vitamins including B12 😂

I've just been to the loo again and now it looks more like IB when I wipe but I'm not sure, I did take a pic but feel like that's a bit tmi even for everything we share in this group. I guess I'll have to just wait and see what it's like tomorrow. My boobs are still sore and usually they're fine from the day before AF so I'll hold on to that hope for now I suppose!

I really hope it’s not AF @whambam89 xx

I’m so sorry @whambam89 that sucks. Hopefully just implanting though 🤞🏻 Do you take b6? I was suggested that to lengthen lp

@MrsB2019x I'm pretty sure it's not, it's light and pink but not just discharge with a bit of pink in it if you know what I mean? Which is what I usually see when people post about IB. I've had a bit of cramping this afternoon too.

I'm absolutely gutted, not because of AF because I honestly didn't expect a BFP this month but because I'd managed to get my LP up to 11 days from 9 and now it's gone down to 8?! 😭

Is it definitely not IB @whambam89? x

AF has just shown up which means my LP this month has been just 8 days... It's never been that short, now I'm not only gutted about the fact AF is here but also really concerned about how short my LP is 😭😭

@whambam89 @kirinm Nah didn’t test this morning and probably won’t now, I can’t take any more disappointment!

@BuckleUp Nice to see you back, how are you doing?

@whambam89 no, it's more a case of issues if you ovulate before the egg has had time to mature. From what I've read it needs to be at least CD11. Ovulating early is a sign of low egg reserve which is obviously an issue as you get older (and I'm old)!

@sansa87 thank you! That makes me feel a bit better 😂

@whambam89 June pregnancy I ov’d cd14 this pregnancy I ov’d cd20 and just had a longer cycle

@kirinm fingers crossed for you! I've never really looked into what dpo is best to ovulate etc, I tend to ovulate around CD 16/17 - is that not good then??

@Buckleup it's always the 2nd week that's worse isn't it?! 😂 I think I'm at the point now where it's just another month (although I do still become a crazy Google lady in the 2nd week, I just try not to think much of it!)

How are you doing??

Are you planning on testing again @MrsB2019x ?

CD10 and negative OPK. I'm really hoping I'll ovulate around day 13/14 as I've read that is when the egg is at its best quality. Ovulating earlier than 10 days means eggs are probably too immature to implant.

How are all doing? I've noticed a few of you have entered the TWW now, it's always such a waiting game..

Don't be too disheartened @MrsB2019x - 11dpo is early and those digital tests aren't as sensitive as frers are. Keeping my fingers crossed for you x
