@chasingtherainbow1 that sounds so tough! It sounds as if you left just enough time between that and when you would have been really fertile though. Just think this is already one cycle down almost, the next will be over and done with before you know it. And at least then you might get some answers.

I am 8/9dpo - feel like I have quite a few symptoms but then I feel like this every single month 😂 But on the plus side TWW is going quick this month, AF is due on Monday (although I suspect I ovulated a day or two later than normal) so I will find out soon enough. I’ve only got cheapie tests in so can’t fall down a FRER obsession hole!

line123eyesalways · 05/11/2021 13:44

@chasingtherainbow1 it must be very difficult! Fingers crossed you get the best outcome!

No news from me. Around 6DPO today but no symptoms or anything. Not even sore boobs so unsure I even ovulated!

chasingtherainbow1 · 05/11/2021 12:26

@line123eyesalways yeah I guess so. Just waiting to hear back from them about when I am booked in. Really worried about our accidental unprotected night now. Would be just my luck that I fell this month and then had the procedure without knowing.

Any news from you guys?

line123eyesalways · 04/11/2021 15:02

@Charl881 ah don't. I've had heartburn today and obviously I'm classing that as a symptom! But I don't have my usual sore boobs that I get post ovulation!

@chasingtherainbow1 everything will be fine! You'll regret it if you back out! Go into it with an open mind. I can't imagine how difficult it's been for you! Wishing you all the best xx

chasingtherainbow1 · 04/11/2021 14:30

@Charl881 @line123eyesalways let us know how you both get on.

I think I'm ovulating today and I suddenly feel so sick. I've ready that the change in hormones can make you nauseous around ovulation so I'm hoping it's that and not a stomach bug.

Need to call the clinic soon and let them know I'm ovulating. Dreading the biopsy, part of me wants to back out of it and wait to see how our next pregnancy goes (whenever that may be!) I think the procedure is similar to the surgical management of miscarriage and I really don't want it. May have a bit of PTSD but I'm just burying my head in the sand lol

Charl881 · 04/11/2021 14:25

I think I’m 7/8 dpo. I was feeling really positive not obsessing but then yesterday I had a headache so obviously now started obsessing and symptom spotting 🙄 It’s stupid because a couple of weeks ago I wasn’t even sure I wanted to try this month but then it’s like once I have tried, I want to know straight away. AF due on Monday though so not long too wait, I have some cheap tests so might try at the weekend but not buying any expensive ones unless AF doesn’t arrive.

line123eyesalways · 04/11/2021 11:39

Hi ladies! Been very flaky this month!

I think I'm 5/6DPO this month. I had a covid jab so that may have affected my cycles but AF is due on my birthday so just been feeling very deflated! How's eve time getting on? X

chasingtherainbow1 · 04/11/2021 07:21

@Mamastarz it's only 2 months thankfully so should be over before Xmas!

My AF seems to be all over the place as well. Last 3 months it's been 32, 34 and 27 days long. This one looks like another longer one as I have ovulated later.

Maybe just take it easy this month. Don't plan anything and just see if it happens. I think that's going to be my approach in the future

Mamastarz · 03/11/2021 16:59

@chasingtherainbow1, Wow that is going in fast, 1 month nearly over, glad you had a nice halloween weekend, the 3 months will go quickly. So have you to avoid pregnancy completely for the 3 months. X

Yes im feeling lots better thankfully, such a few weeks of it, but AF came on cd 28 last month, she jumps all over the place.
Not really sure how im feeling about ttc this month, O is predicted for Saturday going by app, but i think it will be more likely the monday or tuesday, im just feeling like a big yes on one hand and the other is saying no. X

chasingtherainbow1 · 03/11/2021 16:09

@Mamastarz hope you're feeling better! I've just got a positive ovulation test so will be contacting the clinic soon. We went to a Halloween party at a friends on Saturday night and stayed over. Got a bit drunk and didn't use protection but I think I'll be ok as that was 4 days ago. Glad I'm almost one month down of not TTC.

How are things going for you?

Mamastarz · 03/11/2021 13:22

So how is everyone getting on this month. X

Mamastarz · 01/11/2021 19:49

Hi, girls, sorry haven't been on in ages, as ive had such a bad cold/flu, totally floored me, and uti on top and little one unwell too.

How is everyone doing, where are you all on your cycles. X

OP posts:
chasingtherainbow1 · 01/11/2021 12:16

@Charl881 yeah I'm just going to try and be normal and enjoy these few months. I haven't been drinking all year but seen as we're not trying I'm going to let myself have some drinks to keep me going.

@Charl881 @line123eyesalways good look guys! Praying for some BFP's this month for you guys 🤞

line123eyesalways · 01/11/2021 11:08

Hi ladies.

I'm also in the TWW @Charl881 but I know I haven't done enough so no obsessing here either!

@chasingtherainbow1 it'll all be worth it in the end!! X

Charl881 · 01/11/2021 10:12

@chasingtherainbow1 I bet! Can you make some fun plans to look forward to and fill the two months?

I’m in the TWW but feeling positive this cycle and going to try not to obsess.

chasingtherainbow1 · 01/11/2021 09:28

@Charl881 sorry not been on for a while. I'm ok, think I'm ovulation in the next few days so I'll be calling the clinic to arrange my biopsy soon. It's going to be a long couple of months waiting for these lol.

How are you? Where abouts are you in your cycle?

Charl881 · 30/10/2021 21:50

How is everyone doing this month?

Charl881 · 26/10/2021 19:40

Hey @line123eyesalways! I think ovulation is tomorrow for me.

Ironically I decided that I really do want to try for the next months as I’ve found out recently that I won’t be getting the chance at promotion at work I thought and I want to ideally conceive while at this workplace as it’s such a good mat leave package. But then my DS has been ill this week and bed sharing with us so absolutely no chance to DTD apart from Friday. Or even think about doing OPKs. I think I will ovulate tomorrow so will try to DTD then and hope that’s enough but again no high hopes for this month.

Why do you think you are feeling unmotivated?

line123eyesalways · 26/10/2021 17:35

Hey everyone! Sorry I had a little break for a while.

Ovulation is coming up in the next week for me but I'm feeling so unmotivated this month I think I'm going to have a break from trying!

How's everyone getting on? Xx

chasingtherainbow1 · 24/10/2021 16:26

@Mamastarz sorry not been on here for a few days. Any updates? Have you done a test?

Nothing new with me. Just waiting for ovulation to book my first biopsy x

Mamastarz · 22/10/2021 11:20

Just a we update, so im now cd 27, app says im due on today, but looking back my last few AF cycles were every 23/26 days.
Had some spotting on Wednesday night, very little though, very little spotting yesterday and only once on both days,
Still no AF (yet), but still dull aches bottom of back and tummy,
So i guess if she hasnt arrived by sunday, ill then test..

How is everyone else doing x

Charl881 · 18/10/2021 18:18

@chasingtherainbow1 I’m so glad you’re feeling positive about it, I’m sure the time will fly by!

I feel the same about MN, I’ve decided not to check any other threads as it just doesn’t help with the obsession in the TWW.

I’ve decided that I definitely want to keep trying and hope to conceive as soon as possible as I’ve been weighing up job options and basically realised the best thing to do is to get pregnant where I am now then leave rather than try to leave now. But I don’t want to be in this job too much longer so the sooner I can conceive the better 😂

chasingtherainbow1 · 18/10/2021 12:43

@Mamastarz thank you. Hoping the time goes quickly! I've not had a drink of alcohol since my first pregnancy in March but I've decided I'm going to have a drink at a Halloween party at the end of the month and try and enjoy the break a bit more so it goes a bit quicker. Going to try and focus on getting fitter as well because I've let that slide over the TTC period!

I know what you mean, it's weird wanting to be pregnant but sometimes feeling that relief that you haven't had another loss. I felt like that last month when I thought the FRER indents were a chemical.

Mamastarz · 18/10/2021 12:17

@chasingtherainbow1, im sending loads of luck your way for everything over the next few months and more, hoping everything goes well for yous, and maybe by that time well be seeing a nice bfp from you, to kickstart the new year.. 🤞😊. X

According to my app AF is due friday, but im not hopeful, and to be honest i don't want to go through another miscarriage. X

chasingtherainbow1 · 18/10/2021 11:53

Considering having a break from Mumsnet for the 2 months we're not trying because I'll probably get frustrated that we can't 😂 I'll still be around for this thread because I wanna see how you guys get on but im banning myself from casual browsing! Give me some BFP's for inspiration whilst im off guys!
