Post Pill Party - Pool Party

@TheDaydreamBelievers Thank you for the new thread! God what I'd give to be by a pool now!! Sorry to hear about the heavy/long period. You haven't recently had your vaccine have you? I heard that can play havoc too!

@MissM94 Glad AF came and your bloods and scan came back normal. Day 74 for me now and still nothing. Had bloods on Weds so hopefully get the results next week. Still waiting on my scan letter. Oh and I'll probably get a text about booking my second vaccine next week so that'll knock things even further out!!

@ChinChilly I'm glad I'm not the only one with the washing!! So happy I could hang it on the line. Even ordered myself some more pegs from Amazon - I think I'm about 80 years old 🤣

@thedaydreambelievers yey! Thanks for the invite to the pool party 🥳🍹

I'm also a lover of the cooler weather... I got home from camping today and my garden (which is a bit of a sun trap... we grow olives, grapes and figs) was 32 degrees in the shade... and 44 degrees in the sun 😱 its 25 degrees now at 20:18!

I had a 9 day period a few cycles ago... it was very long and heavy. Could you have PCOS do you think? It's what I have been diagnosed with. My consultant said its very common.

@carolinesturn I don't know anyone who got pregnant on the pill, bug my sister had sex ONCE with a guy and got pregnant 🙃 my niece is now 10 years old and amazing 🥰 fortunately my sisters relationship with the guy (who was an utter twat) ended shortly after my nieces birth.

The down side to this story is that my sister thinks all the women in our family are 'super fertile' and she regularly likes to remind me of this 'fact'... if only she knew!

@TheDaydreamBelievers oh that is a long time! How long are they normally for you? I'm having the opposite issue, my periods are barely lasting 48 hours .

@Carolinesturn I worked with someone who got pregnant with triplets on the pill. Another girl at work only missed one pill and is now due next week. Its absolutely crazy when you consider just how hard it can be to get pregnant!

I'm another one who prefers it cooler, I love a thick woolly jumper. Can't be dealing with sticky heat.

@TheDaydreamBelievers we have not DTD for about 6 weeks 😮 I was so sick when I was pregnant up to and including the day we found out there was no heartbeat then since the MVA I've not really been in the mood, sods law OH goes away for the weekend and now I fancy DTD 😂😂 DTD while AF is around isn't for us either.

@MissM94 glad I'm not alone on the washing front. I think I prefer the cooler months, the idea of the warm weather is better than the reality. I'm convinced the heat here is different to abroad, it's just so sticky and uncomfortable here.

@Carolinesturn I know 😩 she's always had light periods and she said she just kept having them and heartburn was literally the only thing!

@MissM94 omg that story about the woman that was pregnant with periods gives me false hope!

@ChinChilly I'm the same 😂😂 I get excited at the thought of getting the washing out as soon as I see the sun.. not for my own tanning purposes hahaha I hate summer, much prefer colder months! And thank you! How are you feeling?

@Carolinesturn i know someone who had sex for the first time with a condom, then went on the pill and had sex the second time and got pregnant! Carried on taking the pill for the month whilst unknowingly pregnant.. had a great pregnancy and now has a baby girl! I find it so strange how things can happen! My auntie had an ectopic pregnancy and unfortunately lost a tube, took her a while to get pregnant with her first child but when trying for her second had sex once and got pregnant.. talk about being super fertile even with one tube! 😂 my best friend got pregnant at 19 with her first very unexpectedly & was trying for years for her second, got really obsessed with it and eventually decided it wasn't going to happen so stopped thinking about it and started going to the gym and stuff & she started getting real bad heartburn and went to the doctors about it.. they tested her and she was pregnant but she had been having a period every month and had no other symptoms, sent her for a scan she was 15 weeks pregnant! 😂 crazy how the body works!
Gives me hope for us all knowing all these crazy stories haha

@TheDaydreamBelievers thanks for the new thread. I bloody hate super long periods, hopefully it sods off in the next day or so.

@MissM94 glad AF turned up for you eventually, seems wierd to say that, hopefully your next cycle is more normal.

@Carolinesturn Yup, i don't get it those people must be super fertile.

I feel very old today as I've found the best thing about this weather is the amount of washing I've got done 😂😂

@TheDaydreamBelievers I used to have 7 day long periods when I was 18 so maybe think of it as a good thing, did it start off with spotting?
It's so annoying as you read 'light periods are bad' and 'heavy periods are also bad' what are we supposed to think?

Hi everyone!
Quick question... everyone knows someone who got pregnant while taking the pill... my sister was one! Anyone ever think now... how the hell??

Love the new thread, just in time for 26 degrees this weekend where I am 😅

Nothing new with me, AF came finally after 92 days (average has been 34 days) scan and blood test all clear so put it down to the second dose of the vaccine (?) no proof for anything that caused it but it's the only thing different in my body haha so just happily DTD and trying not to think too much into it, what will be will be and all that jazz ☺️

CD18 for me….no ovulation yet :/
