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.

@TheDaydreamBelievers the control thing is a biggie for me, i like to be in control and know what’s going on. Thank you, you’ve calmed me down abit 😘

TheDaydreamBelievers · 07/03/2021 19:46

@ChinChilly I totally understand why its stressful, and it's hard to know that right now you actually have no control. All you can do is try to relax and enjoy and hope for the best. Remember it's common to have spotting in trimester 1 and esp brown spotting isnt a worry at all xxx

ChinChilly · 07/03/2021 18:52

@TheDaydreamBelievers I really need to, I’m burning through tests at the rate of knots. I’m being completely obsessive with it 😳 I’m watching every little thing and it’s not helpful. My RHR went down by 1bpm and I’ve had a tiny but of brown discharge and I’ve completly lost my shit 🤨

TheDaydreamBelievers · 07/03/2021 18:46

@ChinChilly I think you need to back away from the tests - I weaned myself off them by testing every 2nd day, then twice a week, then each week etc. Your lines are solid. You are a pregnant lady!

ChinChilly · 07/03/2021 18:39

@Cams50 I’ve realised i sound absolutely erratic atm 😂😂
FF gave me the cross hairs at CD20, chart attached.

@ChinChilly they are really clear lines so I’m sure it’s fine. And you weren’t 100% sure of that ovulation date were you? And I think even 15dpo is like the first day you’re meant to actually test lol so probably wouldn’t get a super dark line for a little while after. It must be so nerve wracking. I know I’d be the same so who am I to talk haha but I’m sure these will get darker soon and it will be ok ❤️ Got everything crossed for you x

ChinChilly · 07/03/2021 17:48

I am wondering if these FRERs are dodgy though, the bottom FRER and the cheapie stick were dipped in the same pee this afternoon, how can the two lines be the same on such different sensitivities?

ChinChilly · 07/03/2021 17:44

@LauraT94 yeah I’ve read on Dr. google it is normal at this stage but my lines are still pretty faint considoring I’m potentially 15dpo, I know I got the digital yesterday but I really want to see a dark line 😭

Melissaq94 · 07/03/2021 17:38

@LauraT94 thank you so much 😂 just about guides my way through it, isn't the easiest of apps is it 😂 x

LauraT94 · 07/03/2021 17:31

@Tillybabs thanks, I love homemade sourdough!

@ChinChilly I'm sorry you're not feeling positive but (and I'm sure you know this) brown spotting at this stage is most likely old implantation bleeding shedding ❤️ but I know seeing any kind of blood is scary! Hopefully it settles down and disappears for you.

@Melissaq94 I've attached the pics below but basically just click on the thermometer on the homepage and enter it on there (make sure you edit the time to show when you took it if you're logging it later in the day) or do it on the data entry page! I log just about every kind of Symptom i get 😂

Can someone please explain to me how I record my temp results on fertility friend and what else does everyone log? Intercourse and periods or just temps?
Thank you in advance! X

ChinChilly · 07/03/2021 17:22

Eurgh i seem to have brown spotting this afternoon it’s literally just when I wipe, I’m not feeling very positive about this pregnancy 🙁

Tillybabs · 07/03/2021 13:23

@LauraT94 the sourdough looks lush!

LauraT94 · 07/03/2021 12:44

@Cams50 @Moocher90 @Kay00 @FlyingGiraffe @KH512 @Robyn101 @Flowers222 @Tillybabs @MancMama39 thank you all! It's going to take a while (and lots more tests 😂) for it to sink in I think!

@ChinChilly there's an option to remove the RHR from your Fitbit home screen - I'm going to do that and stop temping once I pass 5 weeks as I'll just stress otherwise!

Was feeling really anxious and jittery this morning so I baked up some sourdough I had proving in my fridge and then went for a walk and a coffee on the seafront with my OH and my vvvfl 😂

@FlyingGiraffe sorry i missed your message! I think the next thing i need to lose is the fitbit, my RHR dropped by 1bpm today and that instantly made me think uh-oh! I think I’m just going to be a nervous wreck lol.

@MancMama39 thank you! It’s great to have the digital, still not confident about my lines but just going to have to take each day as it comes at the moment

MancMama39 · 07/03/2021 12:14

@LauraT94 so so happy for you! Congratulations Xx

@ChinChilly Just perfect ❤️X

Tillybabs · 07/03/2021 11:21

@LauraT94 I definitely see a line. Congratulations!!

Flowers222 · 07/03/2021 11:19

So many bfps! @LauraT94 congrats! There is definitely a line. How exciting!

Robyn101 · 07/03/2021 10:30

Eeeek congratulations @laurat94 seems you’ve fallen on the extra fertile after a loss category. Got everything crossed for a sticky bean for you

@cams50 it has thankfully! FF hasn’t confirmed Ov yet but I think it will tomorrow. Looking at my chart the blood came the day before O so must be linked?

@Kay00 you’ve got this. It’s crap but just remembering to temp and then doing a stick once a day is the best way to go and to try and get it out of your mind just see it like a routine like brushing teeth etc. Hopefully your GP can help in the mean time but definitely keep tracking just incase it surprises you

ChinChilly · 07/03/2021 10:27

@KH512 I’ve got a repeat blood test in just over 2 weeks, so I will call them and ask them to include a TSH retest in then, I don’t think they will be interested until I’m atleast 6 weeks but I’ll call and ask them. Gosh consultant led doesn’t sound fun, are they treating your thyroid? Or just monitoring it?

KH512 · 07/03/2021 10:01

@Juno231 @Kay00 thank you! I'm about 13 weeks now, still feels surreal! We've told a few people now but mostly keeping under wraps, it's such a nerve wracking time but realise we're lucky to be where we are

@ChinChilly you should get in touch with your GP surgery and mention about the TSH, I was told mine needed to be below 2.5 in the first 12 weeks. I have to be consultant led because of my thyroid and I'm getting bloods done every 6 to 8 weeks.

@glow92 Congratulations!!!

@LauraT94 looks like a congratulations to you too, I can see a line!

FlyingGiraffe · 07/03/2021 09:38

@LauraT94 wow your two charts are so similar! Amazing to get such an early positive! Congratulations! 🥰

@Kay00 sorry you're having a rubbish time waiting for ovulation. Fingers crossed it still happens this month but its definitely worth speaking to your doctor about. One of my friends has said she's checking in on me in the week to make sure I actually do it this month! I keep putting it off!

@ChinChilly I'm so happy you had some more reassurance with the digital! Good idea to stop temping!

@MissC07 hope ovulation happens a bit earlier for you this month! Have you had any signs it might happen soon?

I am having another confusing morning. I haven't really had any bleeding since yesterday afternoon. It wasn't loads when I was and I'm sure it'll start again now I've posted this! But who knows what's going on?! 😂🤷‍♀️

Kay00 · 07/03/2021 09:07

@LauraT94 oh yey!! Congratulations!! 🥳

@robyn101 thanks for the pep talk. You're right I need to keep my eye on the ball, ovulation could still happen at any time 💪

Moocher90 · 07/03/2021 08:29

Congrats @LauraT94 xx

Cams50 · 07/03/2021 08:28

@ChinChilly haha that’s good! Yeah you’re right not to. Keep us updated with everything! Including all symptoms etc
