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.

So I had had a dicky belly today. Not sure why as I haven’t eaten anything out of the ordinary. One very loose vowel movement....feel fine now but it came on very suddenly, sharp pain and the urge to go.... very bizarre. Maybe the progesterone?

Kay00 · 01/04/2021 19:00

@gracie2021 yes, very insensitive 😒

@moocher90 I'm not sure how reliable the OPKs are I detecting early pregnancy. They pick up lots of different hormones so can pick up HCG, but they are also easily diluted if you drink lots of water. Best test with a pregnancy test if AF not show I a few days 🤞😊

@minipilling it is a little early for implantation at 5dpo, so either you ovulated earlier thar you thought or it could be a big of cervical erosion (normal, esp after sex). Hopefully its not an early AF amd clears up soon x

Lovebug06 · 01/04/2021 17:38

@Kay00 I'll take a baby any month 😁
@ChinChilly ah okay. My period is quite a lot heavier than normal especially yesterday so I just wondered.
I'm not much help on your other issue. It could be the progesterone.
I read at one point a symptom of early pregnancy is diarrhoea... Or can be constipation. But could also be as normal. Just like Wtf😂
@Juno231 she's lucky.
SIL got pregnant in a month, moaned to me about being pregnant...
My friend got pregnant 1st try both times. Ahhhh give us some tips people

@minipilling I've had bleeding a few days after AF a couple of times but I don't think at 5dpo.i would say maybe you ovulated earlier than you thought but it seems quite quick. Sorry I'm not much help, hopefully someone else on here will know.
@Gracie2021 I haven't seen any so far. I've seen a few of the ones asking people not to do it for April fools due to those with Infertility or miscarriages.
I'd have been bloody fuming if I was in that group. Especially if she knew one of the girls is trying and is finding it hard. How horrible!

Gracie2021 · 01/04/2021 16:36

Anyone gotten any April Fools announcements? The SIL did it on a group chat. New relationship, not trying so playing it as freaking out. Doesn't know we're trying but another of the girls in the group is and mentioned how hard all the announcements are lately just a month ago so this today is just screaming insensitive 🙈🙈 why!!!!

Moocher90 · 01/04/2021 14:00

Thanks @ChinChilly! Just wanted to check as I remember a few have done OPKs and then gone on to get BFPs

minipilling · 01/04/2021 13:54

Ok guys, weird one here. I'm 5dpo and I'm bleeding. Only finished my period last week but due next in 12 days. It's too early for implantation right?! Had very mild cramping too. The blood was brown when wiping then red, checked just now and still happening, but it's not heavy yet. Also I've been starving/nauseous since last night. I'm not one for symptom spotting but can't really ignore the blood. I'm assuming it's just my cycle being weird! Got ovary/sciatic pain too but that just happens to me.

ChinChilly · 01/04/2021 13:40

@Moocher90 I’m certain I had a chemical in November and this was the OPK a day or so before I started to bleed

ChinChilly · 01/04/2021 13:37

@Moocher90 I THINK! what normally happens is the OPK is blazing positive before your period if you’re pregnant but i saw somewhere that some women do have an LH surge before before AF. I’m sure someone on this group tested the theory when they got a BFP...possibly @LauraT94?

Moocher90 · 01/04/2021 13:33

Who used LH strips to see if they were pregnant??? Is it common to have LH in your system near the time you are due a period? I have a really faint Opk today but I won’t be doing a pregnancy test until my period comes. I wasn’t sure how dark the opk would be at this time in my cycle

ChinChilly · 01/04/2021 13:19

@Moocher90 I agree, I wouldn’t worry too much my temps were up and down like a yo-yo last month when I had my BFP.

@Kay00 I expected the waiting time for a private clinic to be much shorter than that

Kay00 · 01/04/2021 13:12

@moocher90 your chart is looking great 😊 I really wouldn't let a single temp drop sway you either way.

I had a opk at 41% today and cm seems more wet, so I'm hoping my body is gearing up to ovulate again.

Fertility clinic have said my appointment will be in 6 to 8 weeks. I might try and contaxt my gp to get my 21 day bloods done before that... if/when my period turns up.

Moocher90 · 01/04/2021 12:07

11DPO and had a temp dip today above cover line but still a dip. Not holding out much hope for a BFP and will just wait a few more days for AF to come get me!

@Juno231 that’s true, just a wait and see now I guess. Great news on the laparoscopy app!

Melissaq94 · 01/04/2021 10:48

@Juno231 that's great, thank you ☺️

Juno231 · 01/04/2021 10:35

@ChinChilly meh you've got O, O-2 and O-4 so you're golden!

Just got a call from the doctor's office and they've had a cancellation so I've been scheduled in for a laparoscopy on the 27th of April already!

ChinChilly · 01/04/2021 10:26

@Juno231 it’s definitely possible, premom has it down as ovulation on CD18. Dammit got much better coverage if it was CD20 😂

Juno231 · 01/04/2021 10:11

@ChinChilly I think it's possible you ovulated on CD18. That would make the first dip a classic fallback rise and todays dip would be in line with a secondary oestrogen surge.

@Melissaq94 you can definitely take the first dose and carry on TTC - if you get pregnant you just cancel the second one and if not pregnant I'm pretty sure the updated info says you don't need to stop TTC? It was the early info that said it wasn't recommended but it's since been amended. I know plenty of ladies on another thread here that have had theirs and gone on to get pregnant in between shots.

ChinChilly · 01/04/2021 08:44

@Kay00 ahh I think you are right!! I was thinking this morning ‘wow, body you’ve really out done yourself this time with a 4 day LP’ 🤣🤣

Kay00 · 01/04/2021 08:20

@chinchilly I would place my bet on that being your secondary estrogen surge. All completely normal Smile you may also get some fertile CM as a result.

ChinChilly · 01/04/2021 08:16

@Gracie2021 I think it’s possibly too early for implantation? Yeah I get what you mean I’m definitely scaling it all back next month I’ve got a handful of OPKs to use but once they’re gone that’s it! I may do the same as you with the temping

Gracie2021 · 01/04/2021 08:10

@ChinChilly implantation dip? Actually related to this I've decided to stop tracking my temps outside of the few days around ovulation to confirm it. Just find it has me thinking about TTC way too much and getting my hopes up as temps stay high. I've gone back to just using clearblue advanced and a bit of temping around that time. We'll see if it does any good 🙈🙄

ChinChilly · 01/04/2021 08:03

I had quite a big temp dip this morning, i did the whole shut my mouth for a few minutes and they try again but it was still super low 🤔

@TheDaydreamBelievers i didn't realise I was until I got called for it, I rang them to double check! Haha I have a blood clot, but it's not a killer one! So don't think Covid would kill me.. well fingers crossed!

TheDaydreamBelievers · 01/04/2021 00:05

@Melissaq94 you could keep TTC between them then cancel dose 2 if pregnant (unless you are v vulnerable to covid19). But yes, can try straight after dose 2

Melissaq94 · 01/04/2021 00:02

@TheDaydreamBelievers ahh I see! So I could start ttc the day after my second dose then?! 😁 it should be in may 🤞🏽
