Post Pill Party - The Ceilidh

@MissC07 @minipilling I feel like we haven't heard much from you lately!

@ChinChilly I agree @LauraT94 that you might just be testing stronger in the afternoons - your lines look great to me! Stop overthinking it So so happy for you!

@laurat94 interesting to hear about open cervix after an MVA - I had no idea. Your BBT and RHR sounds super promising though!

@TheDaydreamBelievers a break makes sense - we're here for you though whenever you need us

@ChinChilly OMG!!!! Just popped on here to catch up and have seen your amazing news!! So happy for you and massive congratulations!! Such a clear line!

@TheDaydreamBelievers totally understand, have some time away for self-care and come back when you're ready! I do the same each month, go very quiet and try to take 10 days off MN after AF arrives or I end up obsessing and spend hours reading threads which just get me anxious

@Kay00 @ChinChilly @LauraT94

That was different! They need to get them headsets though as felt really bad for GP as she was leaning into the screen to hear me! GP was lovely and listened to me which was odd as usually find the GP's in my surgery dismissive. She was impressed with all the info I could give her. I've to go next Tues for a 'rummage around' and take it from there. She did say probs refer me for an ultrasound. Not the horrendous situation I had it to be in my head. The ball rolling is started and thank you to all on this thread as I don't think I would've been as prepared for the appt if it wasn't for the info and support on here ❤️ CD10 here not much happening.

@ChinChilly huge congrats 🥳 if you’re worried about TSH, ask your GP to test again. I did around the time I had my booking appointment (7/8ish weeks) and they were happy to do it as my previous result was close to the upper limit for the first trimester (mine was 3.4 and upper limit is 3.7). Came back as 2.18 so was all fine, but worth checking just in case xx

@ChinChilly that looks like a fab line as is but don't forget you tested stronger in the afternoon yesterday so your HCG levels might just be stronger in the afternoons! @Juno231 was right about a later Ovulation and CD20 looks good!! I felt really nauseous for the first few days after BFP and then it went away until just before 6 weeks! ❤️

@mrsmacmc hope the GP appt goes well!

@TheDaydreamBelievers I hope the next few weeks pass easily and quickly for you, enjoy your time away from MN ❤️

@TheHotelCalifornia yay for ovulation!! Hope AF arrives without any drama and you can get onto your fresh cycle!

On the subject of cervixes (cervices?!) I feel like mine still feels open... I can't really find out much online but from one post here on MN I suspect that perhaps the pregnancy/MVA means that it'll never feel fully closed again. Hopefully that's normal and won't affect my future pregnancies 🤔

Temp jumped up to 36.8 this morning (from 36.6) and RHR up to 76 (from 74) 😁

@Tillybabs thank you 😊

@mrsmacmc good luck with your GP appointment.

@TheDaydreamBelievers sometimes a break does wonders! Hope your tests go well when you have them 🤞🏼

I feel like this test should be darker for 12dpo, or I might be over thinking it 🤔 i added an extra day of EWCM on FF and it changed ovulation to CD20 which would make sense. I feel really nauseous today but I’m guessing that just nerves 😬

@thedaydreambelievers I think that's a really good idea. We'll all be here for you when you want to rejoin. In the meantime spend some time relaxing and focusing on you rather than the mn chat boards xx

@mrsmacmc good luck this morning with your doctors call (video... wow! My doctors is just a phone call). Its a good idea to make notes. I recently wrote down all my symptoms (from 4 years of unusual illnesses related to inflammation) and it took up 2 x sides of A4 😆 might need to email it to my doctor in advance 😅

@TheDaydreamBelievers I do get it. I have regular breaks away so that’s why I’m not always on here. It can get too much sometimes. Take care and see you back soon x

@TheHotelCalifornia nice to hear from you ❤️ I'm doing my MN scroll and update as DH is snoring like a walrus 😆 the spare pillow is looking very inviting just now 🙄❤️

@TheDaydreamBelievers hugs I took some time off MN too as was becoming obsessive too. Look after yourself and hope to see you back ❤️

I've got initial video with GP tomorrow morning 0840 to hopefully get the ball rolling with additional support - need to make sure I look awake 😆 got some notes written out as my brain goes to mush when under pressure xx

@ChinChilly congratulations! Everything crossed here that it's a sticky bean ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

@ChinChilly omg congratulations! I came on here just to check if you tested again. How exciting!

Thanks for the recap as well. It’s good to know everyone’s journey.

Thank you everyone, its means so much! I would of been lost without this group 😭

OH is ridiculously excited, I keep having to remind him that it is really early! I’m keeping everything crossed its a sticky bean

@thehotelcalifornia great to see you have ovulated and hopefully that means you can start fresh when AF arrives. Sounds like you have a great plan for your next cycle x I hope it brings you lots of luck! Xx

@thedaydreambelievers that sounds super positive. It will be better to know you can continue TTC in safety by ruling anything out now, or if you do have APS then it will be good to know sooner rather than later xx

I'm CD41 here... if my temp doesn't rise tomorrow then I expect I had a failed Ov attempt and AF will show soon. My cervix is hard and closed again now. Everything is riding on tomorrow's temperature... let's hope I don't sleep through my alarm 😅

@ChinChilly thanks for the journey recap ❤️ Love it. Delighted for you!

@TheHotelCalifornia lovely to hear from you again! So glad you’re body seems to be getting back to normal. 10 dpo is great. Glad your fresh start and new cycle is nearly here ❤️

Omg congratulations @ChinChilly I'm over the moon for you!! Such fantastic news :)

I've been keeping up with all you ladies and keep meaning to come on and write an update. DH is waiting to watch tv though so I'll just do a mini one! Basically I'm on Day 52 of this cycle after my surgery on the 12th January...insane to actually type that out but hey, here we are. It's been extremely difficult waiting for something to happen for soooo long as we were told to wait for a period before trying again so I've just had to wait and wait and wait. I started temping and doing OPKs and was overjoyed to confirm ovulation 10 days ago. Soooo my period should come soon and then I can actually join you all in TTC again.

I'm trying to stay positive that I have actually ovulated and I have a very clear temp shift to confirm it. I'm also pleased that taking agnus castus and a B complex with added D this cycle seems to have lengthened my luteal phase as I'm currently on day 10 and this is the longest it's been. First cycle off the pill was 108 days, second was 38 and I ovulated on day 31, and the next one I got my BFP. From CD1 I'm going to take agnus castus, B6, B complex with added D, and folic acid every day and just keep my fingers crossed that this has just been a horribly messed up cycle and next time ovulation will be earlier than day...41.

I'm honestly so proud of myself for actually getting through this and I hope my period comes soon so I can start a new chapter.

@TheDaydreamBelievers and @Kay00 i'm right here with you on the late ovulation. It's so shit.

Anyway! I hope everyone's doing okay, I find it so comforting reading all your updates and keeping up with everyone's journey so thank you all for continuing to post xxx

@ChinChilly I am so happy for you! Congratulations hun :)

@ChinChilly congratulations lovely 🥰

@ChinChilly omg 😳 😱 it's a line!!!! Congratulations and all the fingers crossed. Love the recap too.

@ChinChilly congratulations!! I'm so so happy for you. How exciting ☺️🥳🎉

@ChinChilly Yesssss! I'm so happy for you! Congratulations, rest up and look after yourself xxx
