Tactical seduction and POAS addicts

@FfayeN @Indianna2006 @TheBirdintheCave it's in gals! It wasn't too bad this time although I'm pretty sure I didn't flip it? I'm also pretty worried it'll get lost up there - the pully-thing is pretty much all the way up there too 😳

@bunnykins123 Good luck! 😂 Let us know how it goes. I'm too tired to try it tonight 😴

Still waiting for the fertile CM to start. I started temping again the other day so hopefully will see a rise soon as I'm CD15 already.

@bunnykins123 @FfayeN the harder it is to get out. The more in place it is. If it comes out easy your doing it wrong

all the times I’ve got pregnant with it was like a suction vaccum 😂😂 no joke.

@Indianna2006 ...I actually did wonder if I would be able to yank it back down again. Good to hear I'm not alone and that is actually normal! Wish me luck, trial run tonight...😬

@bunnykins123 🤣🤣 laughing about it entering a void. I think that’s usually a good thing. Probably indicated it was high enough in the right place. It should be almost unreachable tbh. It shouldn’t be in your vaginal canal and accessible. It won’t get stuck so don’t worry about it being in a void 😂

@TheBirdintheCave maybe I'll give it a go tonight. I'll keep you updated!!

@FfayeN yeh I've tried that too. The rubber is quite stiff but I think it's more having to contort the thing so it'll actually go up which I find hard. When I finally did get it up there, I was sure I had lost it as it seemed to enter a void!!

@bunnykins123 Could you do a 'wet' run (rather than dry run haha)? DTD before ovulation so it doesn't matter if the spermies get wasted and practice putting it in and taking it out again.

@FfayeN 🫣 without sounding totally dramatic, it doesn't feel like inserting a tampon 😂 I wonder if I'm doing it wrong! I really want to give it a go this time but I worry that all the fiddling around with it will dislodge the spermies that actually did successfully make it up there!

@TheBirdintheCave you've reminded me I need to get practicing with mine too. I find it really painful and hard to get in. I just can't seem to find the knack of it to do it easily! I also O same date when I had covid. I actually fell pregnant that cycle too 🤷‍♀️

@FfayeN oh bless you, I think I will be the same. I cried at my 16 week appointment telling the midwife not to check for the heartbeat - she found it straight away and it was so reassuring once I'd heard it!

@Indianna2006 I can't believe you're almost 20 weeks! That's gone so quickly!! 💕

I have zero chill. It's embarrassing. I actually had a longer bleed but still ovulated at the same time. Suppose it depends on where you are in cycle when you test covid positive, who knows🤷‍♀️ but that's my experience x

@TheBirdintheCave Ive started putting data into my iPhone this past year so so I checked and the month I had covid (July) was CD1 and I ovulated at my normal time x

@Indianna2006 oh wow 16 weeks already! Eek..I feel like time is slowing down for me 😩. When I had my 16 week appt the first thing I said was I'm nervous about u trying to find the heartbeat and she said she'd do it straightaway so I wasn't sitting there all anxious. Found it really easy and I have an anterior placenta as well. It'll be fine I'm sure 😘 xx

I had a 'dry run' with the Ferti-lily last night. It's kinda difficult to get in but I think I got it right in the end 😂

I think I'll end up ovulating late due to Covid. Did the virus mess with anyone else's cycle?

Toddler and I are still testing positive so that's our anniversary day out on Thursday scuppered too :( I just wanted a nice day with my husband as it was also our due date :(

@FfayeN I think it’s going a little faster now. The first bit to dating scan is OH SO SLOW. Think time goes backwards there.

I’ve been busy off half-time with my DD and got a busy few weeks for my birthday so time is passing faster than it was. Especially now I feel much better. Time does drag when you feel crap.

@FfayeN yes I’m all okay. Starting to pop out now 🙈
my 20 week scan is very early December. Think we are waiting and finding out sex then.
midwife 16 week appointment is next Monday. So hope I get to listen heartbeat to reassure me a bit. But I know they don’t always do it. So if I hear it. I deff won’t have another scan but otherwise who knows 🙈

@FfayeN ahh bless you hun. You did well to say no! Fingers crossed being away keeps your mind off things.

@mummatara ahh I did read hun. Thought I’d reply in here though. Sorry it’s still ongoing. I was same. Waited 4 weeks and then ended up with surgery anyway. 😩 it feels like such an ordeal. Hugs.
but it was quick. In and out. An I was so glad was it was done. I was very crampy that night and next day. Worse is been overall tbh. But nothing painkillers and hot water bottle didn’t fix.
man I stopped bleeding after a week. An got a negative test and ovulated like a week later! 🙈

it will all be okay. Hope Wednesday comes fast and there is a sense of relief once you know it is done.

@FfayeN big hugs glad all is ok ❤️ I bet she doesn't hear no very often you probably shocked her! At least going away will help take your mind off it🤞🏼 hopefully. When do you go?
