@Dex1521 keep the spirits up 😘

DrS44 · 23/11/2020 10:44

@jessi60 ohhh god I am so sorry that is awful- you poor thing! Hmmm the gals might be right about attempted ovulation? Just focus on getting better atm 💛

Ams19 · 23/11/2020 10:35

@positivitytree2020 yes needs to stay above. A dip could indicate AF is coming. Or it could be an implantation dip if it picks back up and depending on when in the cycle it is!

@DrS44 if anything I hope that AF arrives on or around the day I’m due based on my Flo app. I mean ideally I would like her to not arrive but if she has to then 🤣. I’m going on a health cleanse today back to calorie counting and going out walking again as since coming off the pill ive stuffed my face and honestly put nearly a stone on which is probably not helping anything 😂

DrS44 · 23/11/2020 10:11

I'm now getting like a shooting pain into my bum 🤷🏼‍♀️😅 what on Earth is happening to me 🤣🤣

@Dex1521 Oohh maybe it is! I'm getting the strangest sensations! No other symptoms though, but yes been having some CM which I did hear goes away before AF? Aw don't rule yourself out yet it's way too early for that! But as you say this month has just been a bonus for us both ☺️ xxx

positivitytree2020 · 23/11/2020 09:58

@AMS19 I might alter my temp on CD14 so, I’m 90% sure it was CD15 coz I still had a peak at 5pm that day! 😊
Once I maintain my 3 day rise, does my temp need to stay above that red line for the rest of the cycle?

Ams19 · 23/11/2020 09:23

@jessi60 I think @GreenApplesYo is right, it is very common for sickness to delay ovulation! So I think your body keeps trying but because you aren't well it is being delayed!

OP posts:
GreenApplesYo · 23/11/2020 09:22

@jessi60 sorry you're still feeling rough. Hope the GP can help.

I wonder if you're trying to ovulate, but things are thrown off by being so poorly?

Either that or are you dehydrated from being sick and that's why the OPKs are coming back dark?

jessi60 · 23/11/2020 09:05

@DrS44 Hi, aw I’m still in agony with stomach cramps and been sick again this morning. My gp is ringing me at 2:30. I’m fed up now 🙁 it’s been hard to do the opk testing to be honest. I’ve done a couple and I’ll put the picture on. To be honest. I’m even more confused to what the hell is going on 😂

@DrS44 it could be implantation cramps I’ve heard they are more central than off to one side. I’m 4dpo today and feel absolutely fine no symptoms at all, same as yesterday. Only thing that’s different is I have permanently hard nipples which is so rare for me in the past ive actually struggled to get them hard 😂 even in a hot shower it didn’t change they stayed hard. I’ve read it’s a sign of estrogen rising which could be a PG sign but honestly I don’t think it’s happened this month. I’m the same not had a period since coming off the pill I just happened to catch my ovulation (a voice in my head told me to test for it 🤣). I’ve just got a gut feeling it hasn’t worked 😢

DrS44 · 23/11/2020 08:52

@PowerOfFlowers amazing well done you 👏🏻👏🏻

@Lucille3 @Dex1521 not sure why we do it to ourselves 🤷🏼‍♀️😅

@jessi60 any updates on ovulation?

Ams19 · 23/11/2020 08:52

@drs44 fingers crossed AF stays away 🤞🤞🤞

OP posts:
DrS44 · 23/11/2020 08:51

Morning all, I've woken up to cramps, mild and not concentrated on any side. Actually feel quite central and could quite possibly be AF? 😭

8DPO first cycle off the pill not yet had AF O happened CD27 xx

CardioQueen · 23/11/2020 08:50

@PowerOfFlowers that is such a great loss, well done you 👏🏼 x

Ams19 · 23/11/2020 08:37

@positivitytree2020 if you are pretty sure it is wrong make your temp on 21st slightly lower so it isnt a rise from the day before. Then from tomorrow, when your temp hopefully stays up, you'll get the lines again a day further along!

OP posts:
positivitytree2020 · 23/11/2020 08:35

Did my temps this morning and FF has now marked CD14 and my ovulation day!
Not sure what to make if this, as I’m convinced I ovulated on CD15, which was the 2nd day of LH peak! And had very sore stitch that night! 🤔 hmm!

10 dpo, bfn as white as white can be. Of course, I'm now thinking 'wellllll, I might have ovulated a day later, i might only be 9dpo'

I don't know why I do it to myself 🤷‍♀️

PowerOfFlowers · 22/11/2020 19:55

Thanks @Ams19 😊 I have another stone to go until I'm happy but if I get a BFP this month, its ok. If not, then I'll carry on 😀

Ams19 · 22/11/2020 19:07

@PowerOfFlowers a stone!! Bloody hell!! Well done you, that is absolutely insane. That will definitely help with both TTC and pregnancy 👏👏👏👏

PowerOfFlowers · 22/11/2020 17:11

Hello! Enjoyed catching up with today's chat. Hope you are all ok 😀
@Ams19 thats amazing news! You are most definitely pregnant! So happy for you!
@jessi60 How are you feeling by tonight?
Haha @CardioQueen funny your DP does that! Hope you get some progression soon. 🤞🏻 for you!!
Aww @DrS44 - you are exactly like me last month! Testing waaaay too early 🤣 But you can't help it. I hope this month I'll wait till my AF is late (we ALL know thats a lie!)
Cd14 over here! After my weird peak yesterday, its now back to 0.22. I know yesterday was wrong, and now Premom says dtd, you are ovulating! I might delete that picture because its messing with my timeline! Agh!
Other than that, still full of energy.
Plan this week is to continue dtd as much as we can, bbt and opks!
Oh, I've officially lost over a stone too! Woop! Very happy. It now means I'm allowed a takeaway 🤣

Wouldn't have noticed - sorry I guess I mean I noticed because we're all symptom crazy, but it wasn't enough to be certain that I was usually... fluidy haha.

GreenApplesYo · 22/11/2020 16:46

@Dex1521 hmm not exactly. I have creamy CM. It's lots every day now, but at first I wouldn't have noticed being wetter than usual. It definitely wasn't like ewcm at any point. I think if you have cm before AF is due it can be a good sign but it's probably not reliable either way?

Oh also going back to an earlier conversation, I've heard of the girls make you feel sicker theory too 🙂

Dex1521 · 22/11/2020 15:50

Just been watching videos on the TWW and one girl claims that if you’re not pregnant your CM drys up after ovulation and you don’t really have any whereas if you’re pregnant it stays like EWCM and doesn’t change. Surely this isn’t correct? Does anyone know if this is true or not?

Dex1521 · 22/11/2020 15:06

@DrS44 haha I’m the same took a IC yesterday at 2dpo 😂 of course it was crystal clear but it’s scratch the itch. Now going to try hold onto 10dpo which will be next Sunday and do a clear blue 6day early test with first wee of the day 🤞 not holding many hopes for this cycle though with it being my first. Id be extremely luck and grateful if it did but will try not be disappointed if it doesn’t happen

Bells20 · 22/11/2020 14:55

@AMS19 ooh that is good news, I actually prefer the taste of Asti anyway! Good to know, hopefully I'll be on the nosecco come Christmas.!

@DrS44 I don't blame you for one second! Defo try again in a few days!
