Swing your partners round and round (the bedroom). Grab a spot and put your best checked shirt on. We're all stepping together to create some seriously strong lines - Yee-Haw! Now let's get making some cowboys (and girls!) It's time to begin now count it in...5...6...7...8!

This is the 9th post pill party thread for women whose bodies are a bit out of sync post pill. So pull up a hay bale and share your stories of dreary delayed ovulation, fascinating follicular phases, lively luteal phases and terrific temp charts.

@laurag1989 Welcome!!

Its CD15 for me and I feel like my body has given it a go at ovulating over the past few days. I had high, soft, open cervix and EWCM, I also got up to 86% on OPK on Friday (CD 12). Its over now though, so if I don't get my temp rise tomorrow then I'm pretty sure it will be a failed attempt (again).

Interestingly I had the same last cycle (which was my first Soy Iso cycle) around the CD15-18 mark , so I feel like the supplement certainly has an effect. But will it get me over the line? We shall see tomorrow I guess!

Flowers222 · 22/03/2021 16:14

@Moocher90 woo static smiley! Hope you get the temp increase soon. Sounds like it's on the way up!

@laurag1989 welcome!

@abi555 I can definitely relate to that feeling. I'm so impatient now and fed up of wondering why not me! I am joining your pity party 😂 but it will be our turn at some point!

I actually had some EWCM today! No positive opks yet so I am still (not so) patiently waiting for any sign ovulation is imminent. Keep hearing about this line of duty. I've never watched it but sounds like I need to give it a go.

laurag1989 · 22/03/2021 11:52

@Juno231
Thank you very much Smile
Finding it very helpful so far, I do not feel alone in this now which is nice.

Juno231 · 22/03/2021 11:36

@abi555 i feel ya! If it helps you can google average months TTC by age and I'm pretty sure the FF stats show it takes 6 months on average for someone age 30. (not that I have a clue how old you are!)

@laurag1989 welcome! you've found a good bunch :)

@kay00 @moocher90 fingers crossed for ovulation!

CD9 here so not much to report. Did an OPK today and it had a line on it already so perhaps I'll be ovulating earlier like last cycle (CD13). OH would be relieve as it's his bday on Friday and he'd hate to have to BD then lol!

Thank you for the birthday gift suggestions btw! (can't remember if it was hotelcalifornia or daydreambelievers who helped me out!)

MissC07 · 22/03/2021 11:31

@abi555 Oh no I'm so sorry about AF. I completely get you with the frustration it's so draining! Fingers crossed for next cycle for you 💫 Hopefully with lockdown lifting soon we'll all be relaxed and too busy seeing friends and family that we won't be focusing on TTC as much and it'll just happen 🤞

laurag1989 · 22/03/2021 11:26

@abi555
I am feeling exactly the same! Everyone I know says it happened so quickly for them, but I am 4 months in and still nothing.
I know its not unusual, but I feel really bummed about it all too!
Really hope it happens for you soon.

laurag1989 · 22/03/2021 11:23

@MissC07
Thank you Smile

abi555 · 22/03/2021 11:03

Hi @MissC07 thanks for thinking of me
My temp dropped massively this morning so just waiting for AF now. Feeling really bummed about everything now, just frustrated and can't understand why it's not working for us. I know we haven't been trying long in the grand scheme of things, but just feeling irritated and fed up with it. My mum feel pregnant immediately with both me and my sister, and loads of my friends have gotten pregnant while on the pill or on their first/second cycle off, so I'm just having a pity party for one today I think and feeling the unfairness! Will pick myself up tomorrow - new day, new cycle!

MissC07 · 22/03/2021 10:55

@laurag1989 Welcome 👋

@Moocher90 woohoo for the static smiley and positive OPK.

@abi555 How did things go with your chart?

I hope everyone is doing ok as it's been a bit quiet on here the last few days ♥️

Moocher90 · 22/03/2021 07:29

@Kay00

Well my temp is up from 36.07 yesterday to 36.26 today but will see what happens over the next few days. I don’t want to jinx it and it’s just a fluke 😂

Kay00 · 22/03/2021 07:24

Ooh yey!! Hopefully you'll ovulate today @moocher90! My temps are still steady at

Moocher90 · 21/03/2021 21:22

Static smiley and cheapie opk!!

Kay00 · 21/03/2021 21:18

@moocher90 mine got up to 0.86 on Friday but my cervix is still SHO and I have EWCM so I think I haven't ovulated yet... maybe today? Or I haven't had my peak yet... soon I hope, and for you x

Moocher90 · 21/03/2021 20:51

@Kay00 I hear ya!! It up to 0.62 now so even higher then before! I really hope I ovulate and I hope you do too! X

laurag1989 · 21/03/2021 20:28

@mrsmacmc
Thank you Smile, i am looking forward to reading through the whole thread, i have been trying to use a fertility monitor for months but my cycle is so irregular its not working right yet.
I hope to learn a lot from here Smile xx

laurag1989 · 21/03/2021 20:23

@TheDaydreamBelievers
Thank you! Smile, I was feeling so worried that what i was going through was not normal.
My friend suggested coming on here, and I have found everything i have read so far really helpful xx

mrsmacmc · 21/03/2021 20:19

Welcome @laurag1989 pull up a chair 🙃 can honestly say without this and previous threads I wouldn't be so clued up with all things TTC. Hope you find it useful ✨

TheDaydreamBelievers · 21/03/2021 19:35

@laurag1989 welcome! Lots of us had a verrrryyyy delayed period coming off the pill too Smile

laurag1989 · 21/03/2021 17:55

I have only just joined mums net, but I am absolutely going through this!

I came off the pill in November, and only finally had some kind of period this month.

Kay00 · 21/03/2021 17:20

@moocher90 I hear you 🤣🤣 my body is certainly gearing up to ovulate... we just need to get across the line 🤞🤞🤞

@chloerobinson97 ahh!! Amazing!! Huge congratulations xxx

Moocher90 · 21/03/2021 16:13

CD14 today and my lines are much darker and I would say near on a positive. DTD last night and maybe I can persuade hubby tonight as well. Then see what OPKs say tomorrow. I’ve had a flashing smiley on CD11 and CD13 and due to test again 2mo morning. Temps have been relatively low but that’s usual for me anyway....

Be lovely to just ovulate at this point 😂

@Chloerobinson97 congratulations on the BFP!!

Chloerobinson97 · 21/03/2021 15:23

Thank you everyone!!

@MissC07 I always had irregular periods when I was younger so I went on the pill and I was on it for 8/9 years. I came off in September 2020 because my OH and I wanted to start trying but I wasn’t sure what my body was going to do, anyway I had no period at all and I had a blood test in December that came back completely normal (still not 100% sure what they tested for) and then in January I started having acupuncture to help with fertility and I had a period on 4th February which was my only one since coming off the pill, i then started tracking ovulation for the first time and was getting all negatives so I stopped testing on CD28, had another acupuncture session and then a week later I just thought I might as well try and do another OPK and it was blazing positive and I had a static smiley on clear blue OPK (11th March) so we DTD that night and the night after. I was doing my test to wait the whole 2 weeks which would’ve taken me to Wednesday/Thursday but the pregnancy test was staring at me so I just thought I’ll do it and definitely wasn’t expecting 2 lines! Xx

firsttimemummy321 · 21/03/2021 14:39

@Melissaq94 could be 🤞🏻

@Kay00 thank you it is super faint but also still early 🤞🏻 it's the bleeding that's thrown me!

@Chloerobinson97 ahhh congratulations that's a great line!! :)

Still faint lines on ics and also a good line but not positive opk (mine are usually blank) 🤷‍♀️

MissC07 · 21/03/2021 14:29

@Chloerobinson97 Congratulations!!! Would love a recap of your story when you feel ready 😀 x
