Post Pill Party - The Mosh Pit !!

Kay00 · 16/01/2021 20:33

As the Post Pill Party fills up, the lights are dimmed and the music drops a beat. The lead singer of this rambunctious band shouts: Mosh Pit!! The ravers all storm for the small space in front of the stage allowing their bodies to dance to the beat however the f* they want!! You go ladies!!

This is the 7th post pill party thread for women whose bodies aren’t quite dancing to the expected rhythm: we have delayed ovulation, crazy long follicular phases, crazy short follicular phases, light AFs, short luteal phases, long luteal phases, confusing temp charts and blindingly white OPKs!

In the crowd I can see:

@abi555 @crabette @Robyn101 I’m so glad you could all see it I thought I had just saw it because I wanted to see it. Not sure about the colour of the line so I guess I’ll wait until Sunday and test again...trying not to get my hopes up incase it’s just an indent.

TheDaydreamBelievers · 29/01/2021 13:48

Ah @crabette are the clearblue the ones that show a flashing or static smiley? I just use the cheapie One Step OPK strips. FF asks for a + or - (under tests and devices); Natural Cycles has a little bit where you move a bar to show what the test line is like and it tells you if its positive or negative.

Gracie2021 · 29/01/2021 13:45

@Emmgrem I'm so sorry to hear it. Mind yourself and fingers crossed for a sticky bean for you xxx

crabette · 29/01/2021 13:37

@Emmgrem oh I'm so sorry 💔 It does look like an early CP. Look after yourself, lots of self care and fingers crossed you are more fertile next month as a result!

@ChinChilly I think your revised O date plus the really really faint (but visible to me too!) line gives you a really good shout?! You're not out yet!!

@TheDaydreamBelievers Yeah I've been doing a mix of ClearBlue OPKs (which give you a low / high / peak reading) and the IC OPKs you need line eyes for. The CB ones go in the MON line on FF and the ICs go under OPK - you can see on my (embarrassingly bare!!) chart! 🙈

@Kay00 - what are you allowed to eat?! That sounds horrific!!!!

abi555 · 29/01/2021 13:05

@Emmgrem really sorry to hear, but agree it does sound like a CP. Hopeful for a stickier bean for your next cycle xx

@ChinChilly legit my first thought when I saw your first picture was 'well that's a BFP!' I definitely saw the line but thought I was going crazy as the only one to see it before Juno mentioned it too. If you're only 9DPO then that looks hopeful to me! eeeeeeeeee!! Keep us updated!!

Robyn101 · 29/01/2021 13:05

@juno231 you and me both 🤦🏻‍♀️ another whiter than white OPK today with not even a hint of O.

@gracie2021 Thankyou! Guess carrying on DTD is all we can do keep it fun and hope I happen on O

@chinchilly You’re deffo in the game still got everything crossed

@MissC07 looks peak to me get DTD!

@emmgrem I’m sorry to hear that, hopefully AF hurries up and you can start your new cycle. Look after yourself ❤️ and here’s to a sticky bean next cycle

Juno231 · 29/01/2021 12:52

@Emmgrem I'm so sorry! Hopefully that means you'll get a sticky asap and it shows that your body certainly knows what to do, even if it sucks that this one wasn't meant to be. My only recommendations would be wine and a bath so I think you're already on the right track.

MissC07 · 29/01/2021 12:48

@Emmgrem sorry to hear that. Look after yourself and hoping you get a sticky bean over your next FW.

Moocher90 · 29/01/2021 12:38

@Emmgrem sorry to hear about the CP :( awful news xx be kind to yourself and I hope if it is then AF comes soon for you

ChinChilly · 29/01/2021 12:04

@Emmgrem that does looks like you may of had a chemical, so sorry. Be kind to yourself 💗

TheDaydreamBelievers · 29/01/2021 12:00

I'm sorry @Emmgrem - that does look possibly like a chemical/v early pregnancy loss. I havent had that myself but understand that they do tend to jiggle up the end of that cycle a bit. Treat yourself well, physcially and mentally xox

Emmgrem · 29/01/2021 11:38

Also to say @ChinChilly I can see a second line too so don't rule yourself out and test again in a few days. Everything crossed 🤞 💕

Emmgrem · 29/01/2021 11:37

Thank you @Elsie2021 @Kay00 @Cams50 @LauraT94 @Juno231 @abi555 @Flowers222 @Nellieee @Gracie2021 @crabette @ElizabethP141 and everyone else who wished me luck and advice when I posted about my vvvfl at 10DPO, which disappeared at 11DPO and reappeared at 12dpo.

I tested this morning at 15dpo on cd33 and with AF now a day late and got a BFN (see the change in the pic attached starting with 10DPO at the top). Unfortunately the only conclusion I can draw is that I must have had a very early chemical pregnancy 🤷🏻‍♀️😩 Welcome any advice to say otherwise though or anyone who's experienced the same.

Now I'm just in limbo waiting for AF to arrive so I can have a nice bath and crack open the wine 🍷 I did get a temp drop this morning which I'm hoping was a good sign but I've heard it can be delayed after a CP. Very much want to get on with cycle #4 and hope those rumours of higher fertility after a loss are true as it'll be Valentine's over my next FW! 💕

Thank you everyone for your support

@TheDaydreamBelievers Yeah I can’t tell if there is any colour to it. Mountainous shitstorm made me laugh 😂

TheDaydreamBelievers · 29/01/2021 10:50

My FF and Natural cycles charts actually look lovely this early in the cycle (CD7). All taken at the same times and an OPK each day. Nice to appreciate them before they turn into a mountainous shitstorm!

TheDaydreamBelievers · 29/01/2021 10:48

Btw @ChinChilly I see a faint 2nd line there too. Like @Juno231 I'm not sure on colour but I see it!

ChinChilly · 29/01/2021 10:45

@Juno231 I agree, I think it was CD15. @Gracie2021 @MissC07 I think I can see it in that photo but not so much in real life, 🤔 have to see what happens over the next few days.

@MissC07 that OPK definitely looks like peak or very close to, hopefully ovulation is around the corner, get on that 🍆 just incase!

MissC07 · 29/01/2021 10:37

@ChinChilly I didn't want to say it either but I thought I saw a v v faint line! Fingers crossed 🤞
It's now letting me attach my chart and today's OPK, I think this might be the darkest I've had so maybe my body is trying to do something again 🤷‍♀️ Premom has now got rid of my previous peaks after this OPK, so I need to change my FF chart! It's all a bit confusing 😂

Juno231 · 29/01/2021 10:32

@ChinChilly I'd potentially say CD15 was OD but I'm not sure why FF thinks it's CD16. Either way you're only 9-10DPO and definitely still in! Fingers crossed that line becomes a proper one by the time you test again.

Gracie2021 · 29/01/2021 10:31

@ChinChilly ok so I went back for another look after @Juno231 eagle eyes spotted a faint. And..... I think I see it too 🤞

@Kay00 @Juno231 I considered FODMAP for IBS too and also chose IBS symptoms over the food. No willpower. I actually changed job instead and came about three rungs down the ladder in responsibility and the drop in stress is what did it for me. Still have bad days now and then but stress was my killer with IBS. Funny what it can do to your body.

Gracie2021 · 29/01/2021 10:26

@abi555 looking forward to hearing of the morning after shenanigans 😂 I'm giving everything a try tbh. If a doctor hasn't said it's bad for me, I'll give it a shot.

@Cams50 great to have the blood test booked in. AF is giving you a fierce hard time for sure.

@Robyn101 sorry O isn't jumping out at you just yet but great to have the OH on board for SMEP and for gets crossed you get some crosshairs soon.

@Kay00 hope you can find some treats you still enjoy on the new plan. My mam swears by wheatgrass juice for flare ups and inflammation. She always has trays of the stuff growing..... like a little growhouse! Hope things line up nicely for a romantic Vday weekend. AF is due on 14th for me so it'll either be celebrations or more likely a long hot bath with a glass of wine.

@FlyingGiraffe sorry you're having a tough cycle. Fingers crossed the next few days might surprise you though. Sometimes it happens when you least expect it.

ChinChilly · 29/01/2021 10:24

@Juno231 CD14 temp adjusted! Sometimes I think I can see something in some lights then in other lights it looks stark white! Guess I’ll test again in a few days if AF hasn’t got me

MissC07 · 29/01/2021 10:22

@ChinChilly so my chart hasn't got any dates yet as I have no idea what's going on! I thought I ovulated when my temp dipped but clearly didn't. I've just done an OPK though and got this, which I think is the strongest I've had even though I've had 'peaks' before. My stupid Premom app isn't working this morning either!!! And now MN won't let me add pictures 🙈

@TheDaydreamBelievers I now put mine only under + or - not the monitoring OPK high, low, peak

ChinChilly · 29/01/2021 10:19

@TheDaydreamBelievers Yeah, I had put them under advanced monitor as low, high & peak instead of the standard OPK tab for IC tests, I didn’t think it would make much difference but it obviously did as it changed my dates when I changed it.

Juno231 · 29/01/2021 10:18

@Robyn101 ah I was hoping it would go up today

@ChinChilly okay don't kill me but there is def a line on there?? Well I can see one anyway, but not sure if I can see any colour. As for the chart... temp adjust CD14 please as it might be skewing the temps? If you're 9DPO then that faint line looks promising...

@cams50 yes on Monday! Kinda nervous even though I know not much will happen!

@kay00 oof fodmap is no fun. I kept considering doing it during the years I had IBS but I legit chose stomach cramps and wrecking the loo 6 times a day over the thought of giving up food lol. On the bright side, cutting out thinks like gluten and dairy is meant to improve your fertility chances!!

@abi555 I've used the mooncup once or twice after BD but honestly just to prevent a wet patch in bed...
