New Cycle starting 13/01/21

Just wondering if anyone wants to join me for a new cycle starting yesterday (or thereabouts)? AF reared her ugly head yesterday so it's new cycle time. This will be my 3rd cycle after a MMC in October last year. Let's support each other through this!

Argh, hopefully she’ll stay away @mollyaimee! I can’t believe how clear the line was.. have you tried other brands?

That’s great, thanks @thislittlebird! X

I really like this Reddit sub, purely out of nosiness really, so I thought I’d share a link since I know at least @Amz6219 is charting.

@Amz6219 I know right?! And on 3 cheapies too...😭 just going to try and take a break and wait for AF to arrive... yay! 😩 how’s your line looking?! I can defo see something!!

thislittlebird · 08/02/2021 16:43

Today I’m getting emotional and craving food which is a good indication of AF being imminent. I’m so tired of this bitch.

Amz6219 · 08/02/2021 16:41

Still time @mollyaimee! That was a convincing evap.. 🙁 x

2020mission · 08/02/2021 16:40

@KeepSmiling89 yeah definitely should keep the thread going for company for all still trying 👍🏼 really helps to have some support. I tend to take a wee break from MN during AF each month as it's always the hardest part. Half way through AF now. Still hoping some of you won't need the thread soon!

thislittlebird · 08/02/2021 16:34

That sounds great! @KeepSmiling89

mollyaimee · 08/02/2021 16:09

@KeepSmiling89 @Amz6219 okay I think I’m out for this month, knew I shouldn’t have got my hopes up from the lines yesterday!! All stark negatives today, must have all been evap lines yesterday😩 only 9DPO but can feel AF is on her way already!

Amz6219 · 08/02/2021 15:19

I vote to keep it going too! It’s like a sisterhood 🤗 x

mollyaimee · 08/02/2021 15:14

@KeepSmiling89 I would love to keep this thread going either way!!

Hi everyone.
Random post because I won't have anything to update until I test on Friday (if I can wait that long!) But just want to say thanks for keeping me and each other company on our TTC journeys in this thread. This is my first thread with over 100 posts now which makes me weirdly happy!
Shall we keep it going once this cycle is finished if AF arrives?

Yeah, fingers are crossed for tomorrow's temp/no AF today. But it is so frustrating how these odd things happen that don't normally happen and then more often than not result in AF Confused

mollyaimee · 08/02/2021 12:53

@Amz6219 I can definitely see a line on that test you did this morning!! Interesting to see how it progresses over the next few days!

Amz6219 · 08/02/2021 12:06

Ah ok, everything I was reading pointed at implantation dips so I was a bit worried. Maybe I’ll not look into it too much yet.

Promising that they’re not dipping though? Keeping everything crossed x

thislittlebird · 08/02/2021 10:58

I wouldn’t worry about the lack of dip, it can mean nothing or something tmk.

In my couple of old charts it usually drops off pretty suddenly either cd1 or the day before. Nowhere near the cover line. But those were messy oral temps so maybe they’re a little off.

I do usually suffer from hormonal migraines and they’ve been less frequent around cd1 lately. Wondering if my hormones are slowly changing (causing temps to descend gradually) rather than sudden drop offs and that’s why no migraines/less severe ones. Not sure.

Amz6219 · 08/02/2021 10:27

*grey (not great)

Amz6219 · 08/02/2021 10:07

Interesting! Do you normally start getting a sharp drop off by now?

I’ve not had an implantation dip which is making me think it’s an indent on the test x

thislittlebird · 08/02/2021 09:38

Yeah a bit early maybe. Mine is doing funny things and I’m trying not to read into it too much because when I do this I end up disappointed. Instead of my normal sharp drop off it’s doing a slow decline to the cover line and then a small rise today. I’m ignoring that because it’s probably more likely an iffy temp.

Amz6219 · 08/02/2021 08:58

I don’t think it’s telling me much yet really @thislittlebird other than confirmed ovulation, still trying to learn but I’m not sure... how’s yours looking? X

thislittlebird · 08/02/2021 08:46

How’s the chart looking now? @Amz6219

I’m 10dpo today and just keeping my fingers crossed for the next two days that AF doesn’t come.

Amz6219 · 08/02/2021 08:44

That’s what I thought @thislittlebird, it does look a bit pink in real life but pic looks grey 🤔 don’t want to get my hopes up! I’m only 9dpo so I guess if I try again in a couple of days it’ll either be darker or obviously a no.

Is it Wednesday yet?? 🙈 x

KeepSmiling89 · 08/02/2021 08:23

@Amz6219 I definitely see something there. No experience with first response tests though so I'll say a tentative congrats and test again tomorrow or Wednesday.

thislittlebird · 08/02/2021 08:22

Yeah I think I see something @Amz6219, not sure if i can see any colour though 🤔. What day are you at now?

Amz6219 · 08/02/2021 08:17

Think I see something.. looks great on the pic but vvv faint pink on real life, pic was taken in the time frame.. thoughts? I’m losing my mind! X

@Amz6219 oooo exciting - let us know how you get on with that! After seeing faint lines on 3 cheapies yesterday, couldn’t see a line this morning on frer so really not holding out much hope😭 fingers crossed for you though!!
