Christ I’m talking like I’m at work saying sample 😂😂 I just mean more dilute wee🙄

jessi60 · 23/11/2020 18:13

Feeling abit better 🥳 still got a heat pack on my stomach though 🤣

Did another opk with more of a dilute sample incase that’s why it was reading higher. Managed to drink more today. Still not too different though🧐

@Foxl2222 here is the group! All a lovely bunch of girls and all experiencing similar things! Might be worth giving a quick background for everyone 🙂

@DrS44 yep just the once! Then 2 days later got mt BFP! 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

DrS44 · 23/11/2020 16:55

@Ams19 so was it just the once as well? I know that's what I'm like 😅 I'll wait a few days now before I test xxx

Ams19 · 23/11/2020 16:54

@DrS44 yep it happened to me. The tiniest little bit in the world, if I wasn't actively inspecting my knickers (cringe) each time I went for a wee i would have missed it! That was 10DPO!

@DrS44 yeah for someone who said they wouldn’t symptoms spot I’ve been doing a hell of a lot of it 🤣 must be the first cycle excitement of it all 😂 hope it happens for us all soon xx

DrS44 · 23/11/2020 16:19

@Dex1521 I know loads of people who didn't have any symptoms so I wouldn't worry! I'm just intrigued by that spotting I saw today! Fingers crossed for us both xxx

Dex1521 · 23/11/2020 16:10

@DrS44 yeah I was saying to my OH my nipples feel like bacon rind and really bumpy around it too. I’m always freezing too so totally get you with the socks and dressing gown get up. But it could be middle of July and I’ll have my dressing gown on 😂 My OH sits in shorts and a T-shirt all year round 😳

Haven’t been feeling nauseous since ovulation and haven’t had those lightheaded dizzy spells where I feel really sick that I was getting every other day the two weeks before ovulation. And to do with gassyness I have been a bit but not enough to make me think its PG just from eating too much 😂

DrS44 · 23/11/2020 14:43

@Dex1521 the gassy/nauseous happened Friday night so 5DPO xxx

DrS44 · 23/11/2020 14:41

@Dex1521 I had the erect nipples thing too! So strange! I think that was around ovulation and just after! I noticed when I was in a really hot bath and my nipples were rock hard I was like WTF?!

My nipples aren't sore or anything but they were around 3/4 day DPO so I think that was still from ovulation...

Nothing major other than I seem to be freezing all the time but then on a morning I am roasting 🤷🏼‍♀️ but I am always cold so not sure that's anything. Last night the fam were all really warm fire on heating on everything, I was fully dressed with a hoody and socks and then put a dressing gown on and still so cold 🤣

And after having a drink and eating a big dinner I'm feeling really gassy and nauseous. But again that could be to do with all the food and drink I'm having 🤣🤣

So not much other than these cramps and that light spotting I would say xxx

Dex1521 · 23/11/2020 14:27

@DrS44 what dpo did you start getting symptoms and if you don’t mind me asking what were they? I’ve had nothing really so far expect feeling bloated, constipated slightly and been quiet gassy too 🤣 and the extremely hard nipple situation

PowerOfFlowers · 23/11/2020 14:17

Oh @jessi60 that sounds horrible for you. At least you now know what it is though and hopefully you can start antibiotics. Can you get some rehydration sachets or do they also go through you? Hugs to you!
Ooh @DrS44 I wonder what it is! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

DrS44 · 23/11/2020 14:09

@Ams19 ok great I'll try a FRER Wednesday maybe xx

DrS44 · 23/11/2020 14:08

@Ams19 did it happen much for you? I wouldn't have noticed it because there was so little only because I've been cramping I had a look😅 xxx

Ams19 · 23/11/2020 13:59

@DrS44 sounds ideal timing for it. I got a BFN on 9DPO, didn't test 10 or 11, positive on 12. If it is implantation you should be able to get a positive in a couple of days off a FRER, as after implantation is when you're body starts producing HCG!

OP posts:
DrS44 · 23/11/2020 13:48

@Ams19 @Dex1521 oohhh maybe Int just googled and that is what it looks like? Like it was a few really small light specks 🤣 went looking for more 🙈🤣 and couldn't find any 🤷🏼‍♀️ I'm 8DPO? Surely be too early for AF- is implantation between 6 and 12? You got a BFN on 10DPO didn't you @AMS19 xxxx

Dex1521 · 23/11/2020 13:45

@DrS44 Oo I don’t think so! If could go along with your cramps as implantation bleeding. What dpo are you? You’re around the time of implantation aren’t you?

jessi60 · 23/11/2020 13:33

@DrS44 Hoepfully I’m on the mend! Bloody could literally only happen to me the first proper month of TTC 🤣

Ah you never know, your not ruled out yet Xxx

Ams19 · 23/11/2020 13:26

@DrS44 definitely could be implantation bleeding 🤞🤞🤞 i got some 10DPO!

OP posts:
DrS44 · 23/11/2020 13:22

@jessi60 I've just googled that and it sounds horrific! God I hope you're okay 💛💛💛

DrS44 · 23/11/2020 13:22

Just went to the loo and there was like 4/5 really small spots of blood... really hoping it's not AF 😭😭😭

jessi60 · 23/11/2020 13:09

They basically think I have campylobacter. Might need to start some antibiotics. Feel slightly better the last 2 hours so hopefully things will improve🙁 I can’t really afford to lose anymore weight to be honest. I’d already lost some weight after having my implant out, coming off contraception made my appetite basically 0. Weird that it can affect people in so many ways.
God knows about my opk 🤷🏻‍♀️ I do think being ill can make dodgy results so this month probably isn’t the best for me. You would think with a 28 day cycle I would of ovulated by now if i did X

PowerOfFlowers · 23/11/2020 11:53

I feel you @Dex1521 I put on a stone after coming off the pill. I then put on another stone after lockdown 1. I naively didn't expect to put on that much weight after going off the pill, but it was leading up to Christmas last year and I wasn't watching what I was eating so it all adds up 😩
Lost a stone now, another to go (unless I get a BFP!)

Bells20 · 23/11/2020 11:22

@jessi60 so sorry to hear you're still so unwell! Hopefully your GP has some helpful advice for you later. I have no explanation for the OPK results - I'd be inclined to go with what others are suggestions. Hopefully you'll feel better soon and ovulation will be on its way in no time.

@Dex1521 I'm with you there. since coming off the pill I've been HANGRY and definitely put on a few pounds. Thought I'd get back on it today with a workout first thing but my god, even with my best sports bra my boobs were killing me!

I got a temp rise this morning so hopefully that continues and my apps will start counting dpo. For those in TWW who need a distraction, there are so many wonderfully awful Christmas films on Netflix at the moment. I'm really enjoying working my way through them in my breaks from work.
