August might be pact might be madness part 2

@Sansa87 So glad little one is okay! 💙

All okay with baby. No idea where bleeding is coming from. This is rollercoaster.

Thankyou ❤️ I’m in waiting room now

@MrsB2019x that's true!

Let us know how you get on @sansa87 hoping everything is ok for you x

@whambam89 That and quite a few people left after August because they got pg lol. Nice we still hear from some though ☺️

Thinking of you today @Sansa87 x

@MrsB2019x that's true 😂 I feel like you can tell that we're all being a bit quieter / trying our hardest to not think about TTC that much by the fact that we're still on August... I guess the only benefit of only DTD once in my FW this time is that I feel we have pretty much no chance so maybe the TWW won't be so torturous for me 😂

@whambam89 You say that like we made September and October threads 😂

1.2 reading on tonight's opk, so yesterday or earlier was my peak... Now kicking myself for not doing them sooner and assuming I'd ovulate later like last month 🤦🏻‍♀️ feel like I may as well sign up for the November thread already 😂

@kirinm just checked last month's OPKs actually and I had a 2.21 on CD20 then down to 1.68 and 1.97 then back up to 2.41 on CD21 so it could go back up again later I suppose!

@kirinm I'm wondering if I missed my peak and it was before yesterday, my peak last month was 2.41 so quite a lot higher! Will try and persuade OH to DTD tonight either way 😂

@whambam89 doesn't peak mean you're likely to ovulate in the next 48 hours? DTD tonight and you should be covered!

Looks like yesterday was my peak or I've missed my peak so I guess we're not in with much of a chance this month!

@MrsB2019x we DTD last night will try and persuade OH to do tonight as well 😂 will probably do another opk later just to see if I've hit peak or not yet.

I know what you mean about constantly thinking about TTC, it's impossible not to isn't it?!

Glad you know where you’re at now @kirinm ☺️

Nearly TWW @whambam89! 🥳 Best jump on DH tonight!

I had a dream about my baby last night, the lost one. So woke up feeling pretty shit. On the plus side unless I look on my app, I don’t know how many DPO I am, and haven’t missed the constant countdown at all. I’m constantly thinking of TTC all day every day still but I have no idea how to shake that off!

AF has arrived 🥳 - I'm so relieved!

I shall definitely be using OPKs this month.

@kirinm I've had the worst indents on so many different tests I've kind of given up on a positive being a positive until I get a good strong line.

@sansa87 hope everything is ok for you, try not to worry x

@MrsB2019x happy TWW!

I've caved and done an opk tonight and it's nice and strong but not as high as my "peak" on premom last month so I'm guessing I'm on track to ovulate Friday assuming I get peak tomorrow. We've not even DTD this week yet so I'm not feeling very hopeful for this month 😂

I know, there are some awful tests on the market - the sainsbury and tesco ones are really bad too.

Anyway, I'm feeling really crampy so hopefully AF will arrive soon!

@kirinm Omg that is shocking! It’s tests like that which give poor ladies false hope ☹️

Tested and it's a very clear BFN but look at this indent! I've not seen one quite as obvious before. Really bad tests🙈

Have to say though, absolutely bloody typical that the one month I don't do OPKs is the month by body does something weird.

Sorry to hear you're still having concerns @Sansa87 - is it just light bleeding / spotting? I am sure everything is fine but hopefully the scan will help reassure you.

@MrsB2019x i've not tested this morning due to my DD being awake most of the night and me going to the toilet frequently. I will try to do one later. I don't feel pregnant at all. It could be that I ovulated later - possibly CD15/16 so in theory, AF could be due tomorrow but I don't really know. I don't think it is messed up because of the chemical although it could be - I was wondering if being sick could have messed things up a bit?

As I don't think I'm pregnant, I would just like AF to arrive so I can get on with the next cycle.

Oh @Sansa87 you can’t seem to catch a break can you 😔 fingers crossed for Friday x

Do you think your cycles could be messed up because of the chemical @kirinm? Did you test again this morning?

Oooh well hello tww for you @MrsB2019x

I probably will test but only because I have no idea why AF isn't here. Starting to worry about peri menopause again 🙄 or maybe I didn't ovulate? If I didn't ovulate, I assume I still get some sort of bleed? My period returned 3 months after having my daughter and since then my cycle has never been longer than 27 days so this is really strange for me

I started bleeding slightly, have cramps, & my boobs have stopped hurting, they were very painful this morning

EPU are giving me an “emergency” scan on Friday morning
