Thanks for the new thread. Marking my spot! Will try catch up on how everyone is doing when I get a minute 😅

@sickofthisyear ah ha that's sorted it. The flip option for me was in a seperate menu at the moment but I've found it now. Much better!

@KG1145 I think that's the same as mine. I don't know if there's a way to change in settings, but I just use the arrows in the top right to 'flip' the thread. That takes you to the last post so not so much scrolling needed?

I wonder if there's a different app. The one I downloaded is called Talk and it always takes me to the beginning of a thread and there no option of choosing a page or selecting to see newest messages first. Scrolling through 1000 messages is one way of spending the tww I guess 😉

@KG1145

Do you guys use the app or the website, I don't find either very user friendly, not sure if I'm missing something...
Do you mean for Mumsnet? I only use the app. It's not ideal, but not awful. What are you having trouble with?

Oops posted on the old thread...

Hello all, just marking a spot on the thread.

Sorry to all those with BFNs or spotting. I know how irritating spotting is, totally takes away any hope and it means you end up living in disappointment rather than hope!!

@Noodella18

Thanks *@sickofthisyear*

My easy@home ovulation tests have arrived and all of the instructions are in foreign languages! Argh!

I'm pretty sure I have these ones. I'll take a look this evening and can screenshot you the instructions if you like. Unless someone gets chance to do it before me

@Magnum99

Thanks *@sickofthisyear*

I'll repost my question on here in case it gets missed...

Who has had a CP?
I'm not sure if I had one last month. AF lasted 7 days and then seemed to come to an end and then started again but like a new AF with fresh blood.
I've spoken to GP and she's sending me for a scan to make sure nothing more serious.
But just wondering if this sounds like it could be due to CP? Maybe my body is still trying to flush something out?
Or could it be signs of early menopause?

Thanks @sickofthisyear

@magnum99 I had on in October. Not sure how much help I'll be as it was my first cycle after a MMC and I'd bled from the miscarriage for about 6 weeks so had no idea where my cycle was. I started feeling queezy and very tired so tested and got a faint positive result. I carried on testing over the week and it never got darker. In the end I went for a blood test at the epu and they confirmed it. I think I then started to bleed a few days later.

It sounds like it potentially maybe, I've check my chart and think I bled for 12 days with mine. I have no idea what's 'normal' though I'm afraid

Thank you for setting up a new thread!

@climbershell My AF / spotting isn't consistent either. I don't get any spotting mid cycle or anything like that, but my CM goes pink a few days before AF, off and on, and the stringy bits are also inconsistent. Then AF does a disappearing act after 3 days and then unceremoniously reappears for a day before buggering off again.

Misty84 · 03/03/2021 14:35

Nice one @sickofthisyear 👏🏻🙌

@climbershell I usually kid myself for a bit that it might be implantation bleeding but then give up and surrender to the dreaded AH! ☹️

thislittlebird · 03/03/2021 14:26

Thanks for setting it up @sickofthisyear.

@climbershell I was thinking you thought it could be implantation bleeding but if you spot for a few days in advance then it’s hard to say. I don’t get spotting so if I start bleeding I know AF is imminent Hmm

I do wonder if I even ovulated this month, or if the acupuncture and or supplements have made all the PMS calm down, tomorrow onwards should tell when they’re due to kick in.
