Lol lucy!! Have you googled one painful nipple??

Your scan sounds amazing writer congratulations. I know people do it every day but making and growing a baby really is a blummin miracle!

One week to go one my 2ww!!

leezl · 17/09/2013 11:41

Ugh my two days of spotting has turned into full on AF today, over a week early! I didn't even get to POAS this month :(

Off to October I go - hope not to see many of you there! Good luck.

jessieagain · 17/09/2013 12:21

I couldn't control myself, bought a preg test and just tested and got a bfn :(

I should have waited, had originally not planned to test till Friday, and now I still have to wait and I know it's a negative :(

Even worse I probably will have to skip the October bus and wait around for the November bus as I think I will probably be due to test next cycle early November, feels like forever to wait :(

lucyfluff · 17/09/2013 12:21

Ha Im a freak !!! That is all!!!

This is what ttc does to you lol

internationallove985 · 17/09/2013 12:26

Sorry Leezl. Good luck for your October cycle. Although said with much respect. I hope not to be joining you. Even though I'm past my fertile period I still like to practice plus who's to say that your fertile days can't change. A.F is due on 28 Sept. x

leezl · 17/09/2013 12:38

Thanks international, I'm staying with. my mum next week and just praying I don't ovulate while I'm there ConfusedConfusedConfused I would be very cross indeed.

m33r · 17/09/2013 12:46

International. I agree that everyone is just sooo different and writer (have me tears and a warm fuzzy feeling!) getting a new due date having ov-d early just re highlights. Best plan is just to dtd as oft as poss all month.

Saying all of that, I had my big EWCM day on the Monday then lighter and lighter til Friday when I got +be opk. Didn't dtd til the Friday so hoping the opk is more accurate than EWCM volume / measure!

I am now 4dpo and have a slight stitch in left hand side . Is this a sign or am I looking too much into it? I did exercise yesterday for the first time in a long time so may just be muscle tension.

JellyBeanDavey · 17/09/2013 12:53

I have decided to give up for a bit. It's coming up for a year now and I just feel exhausted from thinking about it. Even more so now as I was made partially redundant last month, so I've had more spare time. Plus we are getting ready to move house.

This doesn't mean I'll be going back on the pill, I'm just going to hide or chuck everything I've been monitoring with and just chill out. But I will pop in and out occasionally, update you all and see how you're all doing.

Feel sad now Sad

mama31 · 17/09/2013 12:57

Sorry leezl :( hugs! Good luck nxt cycle!

Lucy....perhaps too much nipple action when dtd...lol soz couldn't resist!!! Haha!

Well I have a dull ache in my lower abd today...today is 1dpo...or maybe I'm ovulating today :/ don't know! But just dtd over lunch break...so haven't missed any opporunity prior/during/after ovulation....hope all this dtd works as I've been very good this cycle! :)

m33r · 17/09/2013 12:58

Jbd. I'm sorry you're sad and hope that you have big plans for the move etc. do you mind if I ask if you ever went to gp for any tests or anything? Completely understand if you'd rather not answer in the spirit of your break from trying.

I've been trying since dec and starting at the back of my mind to think of what's next.

Really hope that you feel happier soon xx

Writerwannabe83 · 17/09/2013 13:03

m33r - I'm glad my scan story made you fuzzy. I'm trying to work out how to put the photo on my profile but my brain isn't working. Feeling a bit poorly with sickness today Sad

Regarding my ovulation dates, I predicted I was going to ovulate on what would have been a Monday/Tuesday, but my new due date indicates I actually conceived on the Friday prior to that Shock Thankfully we had had a 'just for fun' session on the Wednesday which was obviously ourlucky time. All our following 'planned sex according to ovulation' sessions were pointless!! Smile

jelly - sorry you are feeling so down. Have you sought medical advice about not being ale to conceive?

JellyBeanDavey · 17/09/2013 13:03

M33r, it's ok, I'm just sad to leave you lot! Confused
I had blood tests and the cd1+cd21 blood test too. I also had an ultra sound. We did tell the doctor (accidently) that we'd been trying longer the we had. Got the dates muddled up and so our "2 year wait" will be up in 4-5months. Which is helpful.

We will still be dtd unprotected so you never know. I'm just going to let nature take its course

JellyBeanDavey · 17/09/2013 13:06

Write - yeah, been seeing her the whole way through. Last time I saw her was 2 months ago, and she said she done all she could up to that point. And that I just needed to relax, eat health and just keep dtd.

internationallove985 · 17/09/2013 13:06

Hi Jelly bean Davey. I second what m33r says. However the irony is you'll probably fall pregnant when you're not trying.
Mama, you must live really close to where you work. I wish I did. I can't think of a better way to spend my lunch hour. All I had for my lunch was a bag or crisps. Need to look after one's self a lot more. x

m33r · 17/09/2013 13:06

Jbd. I think that's a great approach! 4 months 'off' then looking at the next steps is a perfect plan! Please come back and tell us if you get a BFP in the meantime. Very very very great luck and big hugs!

JellyBeanDavey · 17/09/2013 13:09

I hope you are right international. But I'm not to think like that.

M33r I definitely will do. Apart from my DP, you'll all be the first to know. Lol

JellyBeanDavey · 17/09/2013 13:10

And thank you. You've all been amazing support! Keep the positivity going Smile

Moochie01 · 17/09/2013 13:11

International, how come you were asleep for your c section? That's quite unusual so just wondering.

internationallove985 · 17/09/2013 13:15

I had a general anesthetic. I did have the epidural and I could have stayed awake but I asked to be put to sleep because I couldn't stand the thought of being awake and knowing that they were cutting into me. x

lucyfluff · 17/09/2013 13:57

Haha mama Im blaming hubby now!! Naughty nipples ;)

Jellybean I hope you have luck in the future ttc, maybe taking a step back and relaxing after your move is the way forward.

Im being so lazy today sat watching bbo its raining here :(

frostina · 17/09/2013 14:06

Hey, can I hop on?
Hoping for a BFP on the 26th...
This is our second month of ttc after nearly four years of waiting
Call me crazy, but everything has worked out Smile

Nice to meet y'all, at least I'll have people to share the waiting game with.

ImaginaryHat · 17/09/2013 14:10

Sorry about af leezl, hope Octobers lucky for you.

Writer your scan story made me grin from ear to ear, so lovely to hear Smile

Mama I went straight on to 100mg of b6, it did stop my spotting last month (unless it was just coincidence that I didn't get it) but i have felt a bit nauseous on and off since starting it (plus weird tingly stabby nipples these last few days!) I think if I hadn't bought a big tub of 100mg tablets I think I'd start on 50mg. You can always up it to 100 if the 50 doesn't make any difference. I don't think 10 day lp is too bad, I'm more concerned with the spotting as I don't see how I could implant if I'm already starting to bleed at 7dpo?! Ttc is such a mystery to me!

mama31 · 17/09/2013 14:10

Yes lucy perhaps DH is to blame!! After dtd 10times this week I must admit (tmi alert) I did say to DH to leave the nips alone today...is it normal to have sensitive nips around ovulation??

Jellybean hope you are ok, I think some time out will help you relax and who knows what might happen! I wish you all the very best. Hugs!!

International I'm 5 mins from work so has def been handy on DH days off as I much prefer morn/afternoon dtd, I get too tired at night time....love love love my sleep!

ImaginaryHat · 17/09/2013 14:13

Also meant to say wishing you all the best Jelly, you never know what might happen when you 'stop' trying, good luck x

mama31 · 17/09/2013 14:18

Imaginary I think that too...if my lp is 10days long and I'm spotting 4 days prior to af....really doesn't seem good! But then again that was only my 2nd cycle after pill so don't know if my cycle is going to be short or if still sorting itself out!!

I'm convinced (but wasn't using opks, went by ewcm) that the LP on first cycle was 12days but again spotting about 3 days prior to af!

Really hope the B6 sorts the spotting, I do think this is an issue as well. Where are you now in your cycle imaginary? (Too lazy to look back on the threads lol)
