Post Pill Party - Pool Party

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow I've had my pcr back which confirms Covid! A number of people at the wedding also have it.

I feel better than yesterday but have a temperature, dodgy stomach, achy body and slight headache.

@Kay00 oh the metformin sounds good, hopefully it does its job. Glad it looks like the jab didn't affect your cycle this time, how did you feel after having it?

@ChinChilly oh that doesn't sound too bad, hopefully you feel fine after this one. Glad AF seems to be leaving too!

@Tillybabs oh no! Hopefully it isn't covid but it sounds like it might be . Do you feel OK in general or really bad?

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow that's really weird - hopefully it's just a one off weird cycle. Maybe set an alarm for folic acid though, you're meant to start taking that daily 3 months before BFP ideally!

@Kat668 what the flip! Congrats! Such a strong line too - what was it, 11dpo at that point? All my fingers crossed for a sticky bean for you xxx

Nothing exciting happening here, still waiting on appt for referral to hospital clinic. Sharing baby dust ✨ ❤️

@Kay00 that's good that the medication is having a positive effect on your body.

Yes I hope you are right about the clinic.

@Lovebug06 I'm genuinely so happy for you after you have been trying for so long. Those are really strong lines xx

So I think ive only got Covid! I had my 2nd vaccine on Friday and felt rough yesterday and put to down to that. But then I went to a wedding last week and some people tested positive. So I did two lfts which showed weak positive lines. Then today it's as strong as anything. Just waiting on my pcr result.

@ChinChilly hahaha doesn't it just! I hope our days get a bit more exciting

@Lovebug06 they're lovely positives! Do you have any idea roughly how far you are?

I have just read all your messages and it's made me tearful, you are all so lovely ❤️

I am still in shock, I really didn't think it would happen after so long so it doesn't feel real.

I have tried to attach the picture from last week but I havent done it before so hope it attaches!
I have done another test yesterday to put my mind at ease, which came up straight away.

@MissM94 sounds like a good start! 😂😂 currently just staring at my laptop not doing alot 🙃

@Moocher90 good luck x

Morning!
Currently having a smart meter installed & didn't have chance to make a brew before the electric went off, it's Monday & DP pissed me off last night so I'm in a biggggg mood 😂😂

Thanks all for the well wishes with the scan today! I’m really anxious :/ in dreading the results but still trying to remain positive x

Good luck with the scan @Moocher90

Had my vaccine yesterday, no side effects other than an achy arm. I think AF is packing her bags ready for departure...thank god. Can't believe it is Monday again already 😫

@moocher90 good luck with your floof scan and all your results!

@sunshinedaisybuttermellow worth testing just in case? On my 1st vaccine I spotted for quite a few days before by period properly turned up. I had my 2nd vaccine about 2 weeks ago, and it doesn't seem to have effected my cycle this time.

@tillybabs I imagine the clinic will review all your previous tests and hopefully explain things a little better to you.

I'm nearly a week into taking my Metformin at the slightly higher dose of 1000mg a day (up from 500mg per day) and I have certainly started seeing a change in my appetite! I'm normally a very hungry person, but I have generally been off food or feeling nauseous. Sweet food seems to be turning my stomach... esp. bananas 🍌(which I normally love). Even chocolate I feel like I could leave it... its so odd!!

Hopefully the Metformin works to balance out my hormones, making my body a little more hospitable to any little eggs that might want to make a home in my womb 😊 and if I loose a few pounds, that won't be a huge issue either 😆

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow fingers crossed it is for us!

Well I think she meant it was not thick enough or affected by the what she calls myomas I have in wall of my uterus. Small growths like fibroids.

But she said she wasn't concerned and that I would get treatment for that. But I've had a weak transvaginal scans and she has said before my lining looks good. Seems to change during the cycle I guess. Tbh I feel like she rushes my appointments and is a bit vague. Im supposed to start ivf during my period in September and will be referred to a clinic so hope they are better!

@Tillybabs oh that is strange.
Did she expand on "off" in any way? I've been told years ago that my womb lining was thicker than would've been expected at that point in my cycle. I was having lots of random mid cycle bleeding then as well. When I was about 20/21 maybe so quite a few years ago.
Hopefully this is your month and the strangeness is just a symptom 🤞

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow I had a highish reading about cd15 when I normally ovulate but I wasn't convinced as it wasn't a very high reading. Then I had an Lh surge cd 21 which is late for me.

When I ovulated I had some unusual sharp pain for a few mins and when I stood up I had some bleeding. Not a lot but spotted until the next day.

I tested early last week and nothing although in still only 10dpo so could still happen I guess. I'm cd33 and no AF cramps as yet which again is strange for me. I'm usually a 28 days cycle and start to get cramps 4-5 days before.

I had a scan Friday and she said everything looked ok although my lining of my womb was a bit 'off'. But she has said at other scans that it looks fine.

@Tillybabs no vitamins, I'm really bad at taking anything. I only ever remembered my pill because of a daily alarm.
I tested Thursday 5th at 11dpo which was negative, started very minor spotting (literally pink tinge on cm) Friday then AF properly around 3am Monday. It was relatively heavy and red even though short so doubt it was any implantation or anything.
I do keep getting awful pains under my ribs though, like a crampy stitch or something. Only occasional, but they stop me in my tracks for a moment.
How has your cycle been weird? Similar to mine?

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow my cycle has been weird this month too not sure why though. Are you taking any vitamins?

Have you tested to be sure?

Omg @Kat668 that's incredible! Such a strong positive, massive massive congratulations 💕🎉.

@Moocher90 good luck for tomorrow, hope your results are good.

My cycle is very weird this month.
Like I said the other day, AF early hours Monday until mid evening Tuesday. Then one random flood of blood teatime Wednesday. Then today when I went the loo I noticed blood in my knickers, and I've got bloody discharge on wiping. CD7 today, ovulation predicted in around 8 days as I have quite regular 28 day cycles.

@Kat668 so dtd a lot definitely helps 😂.

@Moocher90good luck tomorrow and try not to worry about it too much. I spotted a fair bit after so don't be alarmed if you do.

So tomorrow I have my hycosy and antral follicle count and my DH has his SA. I have already had my AMH blood test and I shall be getting all my results tomorrow. I will be CD7 tomorrow so hopefully if nothing is wrong and I ovulate this cycle then I will be in with a shot! I am dreading it though thinking I have something wrong as my online blood test with let’s get checked for AMH was seriously low. We shall see what tomorrow brings.

Thank you guys 🥰 yes of course! I came off cerrazette on March 15th, got my first period on the 1st May (didn't have a withdrawal bleed before then). First cycle after period just tried without tracking ovulation or many changes. Second cycle tracked ovulation but husband found it too stressful, so perhaps that's why it wasn't a successful cycle 😅. Third cycle predicted ovulation was right on my brothers wedding so we didn't bother tracking and just did what we could. Then this cycle I started trying to eat healthier and do more exercise, religiously took folic acid with vit D, DH took zinc tablets and did the healthy eating and exercise with me too. This is probably tmi but he also stopped any ahem solo play this month 😂 and we made sure to DTD every other day from the end of my period till about two days ago! Ha ha.

@Kat668 that's amazing news! Congratulations 🎉 yes please give us a recap on your journey

I had my 2nd dose of Pfizer on Friday and today not feeling great. I'm also 10dpo so pissed that I went ahead with it and didn't wait. Although I initially was meant to have it a week before and purposely put it back. But my cycle has been a bit mad this month.

When having it the nurse also asked me if my period had been affected before because some women have reported this. I said no but hoping it doesn't this cycle

Wow!!! Amazing news @kat668 !! That's the strongest line I have ever seen on a clear blue 💙😁

Would you be happy to share your story?

@Kat668 congratulations!! So happy for you 🥳

I'm loving all these BFP's 🥰🥰
