Hi ladies,

This is the 2nd thread following on from

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2452018-Waiting-to-try-and-cycle-a-mess-from-the-pill

For everyone who is entering the madness that is Ttc after stopping the pill. Maybe to start the thread we could all post our stats, so we remember where everyone is at and don't have to check the old thread. X

cookie thankyou Hun! Yeah I hope it's nothing probably just some fatty tissue or something! But yeah your right a lovely bfp would cheer me right up!! Xxx

Yvonne1986 · 11/02/2016 22:06

Oh poor you Chapman I had a lump in my breast a few years ago which turned out to just be a cyst but always better to get it checked I hope your now waiting too long for your clinic appointment!

I would definitely bin the cheapy tests I don't think it's worth the stress although I did pee on an OPK today I don't know what I was expecting!!! It was negative!

I'm going to have a glass or two with dinner on Sat as its too early to test! X

V quick message to send hugs chapman . Don't pay too much attention to the cheapie tests. They do work but are looooads less sensitive than other types. My crazy dark positive on a superdrug test came up much fainter on a cheapie stick (yep... Had to test multiple times to make sure haha!)
Hope the clinic visit isn't too stressful and that you have an ace birthday. Could you put ttc out of your mind for a few days and let your hair down? Xx

Sunnydays321 · 12/02/2016 07:57

Hi Chapman, I went through the same thing last month, found a lump Xmas eve, referred to breast clinic, scan fine, they did a fine needle biopsy (really is nothing to worry about, local anaesthetic didn't feel a thing), mine was just fatty tissue. But My lump really hurt, and took 2 full cycles to stop hurting ... Think the pain was hormonally linked cos now since 2nd af lump is still there but pain gone. Good luck, and don't worry about it, they were lovely and got results quickly. Have a big glass of wine! It can't hurt potential babies. I had 3 last night, woops. Very sadly At a funeral today so there will no doubt be more wine tonight. Xx

cn i had a bit of a lump appear during my last 2ww it then disappeared. It's kinda back again now after my ovulation.

I'm fairly sure because it comes and goes it's related to hormones. Especially as it appeared when i think i had loads of oestrogen around before my ovulation. My boobs were really sore for a few days and my nipples really sensitive. I will get it checked over though.

cnchapmanxx · 12/02/2016 15:15

first im hoping its just got something to do with coming off my pill! we shall find out on monday!

tested on one of them superdrug tests and a bfn. so dont even know if i ovulated at the end of jan or im testing to early. i have no symptoms of AF or PG at the moment apart from my boobs feel like they about to knock someone out. hate not knowing were i am. going to try save that test now til monday and leave it at work so im not tempted tomorrow!

xx

firstgo1984 · 12/02/2016 15:37

Just seen the GP and she has referred me to breast clinic. weird how this is both of us!

shankate182 · 12/02/2016 15:55

Hey girls my ma was one cerezze pill for 3 years and she found a lump and was referred to breast clinic she was diagnosed with breast cancer in September which is why I had to come off if as a new strand in the family I was only on it 2 months so I came off it and DH and I decided to try so hope to God and FX it's nothing serious girls not trying to scare ye just taught I'd let ye know :)

Yvonne1986 · 12/02/2016 15:57

How many days POV are you Chapman? FX it's still to early!

That does seem strange First fx for both of you its just an effect from coming off the pill xx

cnchapmanxx · 12/02/2016 16:11

yvonne if i went from that positive opk on 31st Jan and i ovulated say the monday 1st feb i would be 11dpo and im pretty sure superdrug tests can pick up early results. or unless the bugger isnt showing.. or i didnt ovulate at all haha and im wasting poas for nothing!

I know hun isnt it strange im hoping everything will be ok! xx how are you?

firstgo1984 · 12/02/2016 16:26

cn trying not to stress over it as I suspect the most likely thing is it something benign.

Around ovulation and the 2ww period is not the best time to check your breasts according to most websites, but I wasn't going to just ignore it once I felt it.

firstgo1984 · 12/02/2016 16:37

cn let us know how you get on at your appointment on monday. mine will be some time in the next 2 weeks.

Lump might even disappear once AF arrives... as I said before i am sure i felt something similar that went away last cycle. I reckon there is an area that is responding to hormones.

cnchapmanxx · 12/02/2016 16:51

first i had my doctors appt on tuesday and my letter came on thursday to attend durham hospital so they are pretty hot off the mark! I will defo let u know supposedly takes about 2-3 hours!
this 2ww is stressing me out aswell i promised myself i wouldn't get too stressed and try take a laid back approach but i have failed! haha xx

firstgo1984 · 12/02/2016 16:55

that is pretty quick! my gp said to expect a phone call in the next 3 working days.

cnchapmanxx · 12/02/2016 16:59

first yeah they are really good youll probably get a phone call on mon/tues hopefully!

Cookie22 · 12/02/2016 17:00

This is ridiculous I know! Only 9dpo but convincing myself this could possibly be the start of a shadow forming. Came up within 5 mins but photo isn't very clear! Ah why do I do this to myself- I know it's waaaay to early to test! Especially with Internet cheapy!! Xx

firstgo1984 · 12/02/2016 17:01

cookie why don't you get a FRER? really difficult to interpret that.

Planeteer · 12/02/2016 17:03

Cookie I think I can see something but it could be an evap line. Definitely worth getting an FRER (or a superdrug own brand as slightly cheaper) and testing with FMU tomorrow. Fx for you!!! Xx

firstgo1984 · 12/02/2016 17:03

cn my Gp was great today. I rang at 11.30 after a night shift. duty doctor called back at 12.30.
they had no appointment slots available until tuesday but given it was going to be very difficult for me to get time of twice from my busy rota at work she squeezed me in as an extra.
very grateful. 2 fingers up to Jeremy *unt who acts like us junior docs have got no sense of vocation.

Cookie22 · 12/02/2016 17:07

I'll test with a frer Sunday I think as I know it's still very early. I have 2 in my drawer so it's very hard to resist doing one! Hope yous are well! Glad your doctor has squeezed you in first, they sound on the ball. Xx

cnchapmanxx · 12/02/2016 17:24

first thats so nice of her to fit you in fx we have some good luck and its nothing to worry about!

Cookie i can see a slight line but may be an evap like planeteer said then again im viewing it on a pc and im blind as a bat anyway i wear contacts. i would defo use a frer superdrug one tomorrow!! fx for you lovely!!

Poin86 · 12/02/2016 18:21

Cookie I can see something but agree it could be an evap as it could be a touch too early. FX for the FRER.xx

shankate182 · 12/02/2016 20:26

FX for you cookie 💕

thisisbloodyridiculous · 12/02/2016 22:10

Cookie we can be testing buddies on Sunday morning Grin
