Good luck kellz.

Hi mimi, sorry af got youFlowers
Hello hoggle, goodluck on this tww.
Hi shorty, patience is not something I'm familiar with myself. I peed on an opk last night and couldn't help being excited at a faint lineHmm. Fx our bfp's are just around the corner!

Kellz92 · 30/12/2015 08:05

Mimi it was another high, but feel like today will be my peak. Fx will let you know once I do the test.

Shorty thanks love

Hoggle good luck in tww

Welcome Shizzles

Kellz92 · 30/12/2015 08:06

Mimi sorry the witch got you. That's a really short cycle!! Xx

FuzzyOwl · 30/12/2015 11:56

Sorry Mimi and hope next month is better.

Welcome Shizzles.

Hope everyone had a lovely Christmas.

Please can I have some advice or your thoughts - I started what I thought was AF on Christmas Day. I had expected it around that time and had two heavy days, two days of no bleeding and then bled again yesterday. This is really unusual for me, as I usually have four to six consecutive days of bleeding. What is stranger still is that I have spent three consecutive days feeling sick (badly enough to wake me in my sleep or prevent me from sleeping) and feel as if I have a hangover/travel sick. The first day possibly could have been a hangover, although I only had three glasses of wine over twelve hours so it would be surprising, but not the last two days. Do you think it could be pregnancy related? I got a definite BFN this morning and no other symptoms. I am about 15/16 dpo.

Thanks Kellz and Fuzzy

I'm not sure what could be happening there fuzzy. Our bodies could be such divas sometimes. Maybe watchful waiting for a little while longer and then see a doc?

FuzzyOwl · 30/12/2015 12:29

Thanks Shizzles and I think I will stay away from Dr Google in the meantime as that is just worrying me now!

mamaneedsamojito · 30/12/2015 12:32

Fuzzy I used to have periods that would stop then return (light/spotting) a couple of days later but it was many years ago before I'd been on the pill. I probably wouldn't worry if it is a one-off and just see what happens this month.

FuzzyOwl · 30/12/2015 12:34

Thanks mama and I expect you are right.

shizzles · 30/12/2015 12:35

I know what you mean. Google is a minefield that threatens my sanity. either way I hope it settles soon for you.

Mimilicious013 · 30/12/2015 12:36

Hie fuzzy,sorry u are going through this.if u were expecting af round about that time and u are getting a bfn it's possibly a messed up period.the minute u start ttc everything starts to change.i even got af on cd19 and its never happened.take another test in a day or so and if it's still bfn ,consider it a new cycle and get ready to dtd again u dont want to miss it.fx all is well!

Mimilicious013 · 30/12/2015 12:50

Shizzles aren't you a little bit tempted to poas today at 9dpo.fx for u

Mimilicious013 · 30/12/2015 12:52

9dpo meant 10dpo

FuzzyOwl · 30/12/2015 13:13

Definitely don't want to miss ovulation if this is a new cycle. I have been off all contraception for over two years and never had this before, which is why it is weird. It is more the constant nausea that is making me rethink and Dr Google giving me the symptoms of ectopic pregnancies.

OP posts:
shizzles · 30/12/2015 14:50

Oh Mimi, I have poas'd twice already once using frer and fmu and just now! got an indent on the frer and not even a squint worthy hint of a line just now.

shizzles · 30/12/2015 14:53

just now was a first vue from £ shop

Fuzzy maybe try doing a cleanse? I had a mc in april 2011 after a few years of depo and was told not to expect to fall preggy anytime soon but after a juice cleanse and short course of evening primrose oil i was 5 weeks pregnant by June 6th of the same year.

FuzzyOwl · 30/12/2015 14:56

I do use epo every cycle from start until ovulation. Do you use it for longer than that shizzles?

OP posts:
shizzles · 30/12/2015 15:04

No I haven't used it since then as I've had the copper coil in. But I recently read it should only be used from start of period to ovulation. I didn't know this back then and took one 1000mg daily for about a month. I only knew it was the go to supplement for female reproductive health. I will use it if the witch turns up.

FuzzyOwl · 30/12/2015 15:18

I take 3000mg from start until ovulation and have got pregnant twice doing so. It definitely gives me loads more cm and makes it more comfortable to dtd (I have endometriosis so it can be uncomfortable at times).

OP posts:
shizzles · 30/12/2015 15:26

Really? Then that's how much I will be taking if the lady comes.

I hope Dr google is wrong though but as you have endometriosis maybe you should see a doctor about the unusual bleeding.

FuzzyOwl · 30/12/2015 15:42

I think you can take anywhere between 1000 and 3000 so I just went for the maximum and the first time I tried it, I got pregnant and when ttc afterwards used the same amount.

Maybe but I suspect the doctor will just say these things happen because most women have weird periods at some point. Endometriosis has only ever really caused me pain (primarily, bizarrely, when I ovulate) and it was only invested after a mc because I still had so much discomfort that the hospital wanted to make sure the erpc had been complete.

I am working on the basis the bleeding was AF and will start epo this weekend if I still have a bfn. At least these last few days have reminded me of the unpleasantness of morning sickness.

Mimilicious013 · 30/12/2015 16:12

Shizzles if u have an indent we crossing everything for u it becomes a bfp.peyia and gx here got that before their bfps.
Fuzzy have never used epo but want to start now.im so fed up of af showing,this will be cycle 7.any advice on what to take to lengthen cycle.
.

FuzzyOwl · 30/12/2015 16:30

I don't know about lengthening the cycle Mimi but epo is supposed to give you more ewcm and enable the sperm to survive for longer, which gives you a higher chance of conceiving.

f1ddlesticks · 30/12/2015 16:36

Hello! Can I join you ladies?

F1ddlesticks
3rd cycle TTC #2 (DD is 2)
Age: 38
Also T1 diabetic & hypothyroid

Currently about 10dpo, no symptoms to speak of!

Someone asked upthread (Shizzles?) about TTC after copper coil. I had one before having DD, it was taken out 6m before BFP, but we weren't TTC during that time (actually we were avoiding it, for health reasons), but she was conceived first month trying. Had same coil again until a August this year, so we're in the same boat.

Have just bought some EPO - will be using next cycle Smile
