hello ladies
back to being a busy wee thread today, loves the buzz i do! #girlgang
@MissMagpie having shorter cycles probably related to promoting earlier ovulation as, from what iv read, you ideally need 7-12 days for implantation. so if you're ovulating day 20-21 of a 30 day cycle (for example) it's not really giving your wee zygote an ideal chance to bury itself. from what i gather a lot of ladies who have longer cycles seem to OV later rather than earlier which is bizarre. so 28 day cycle tend to OV cd14, right in the middle but a 30 day cycle tend to OV around cd20. it's a weird and wonderful thing the body eh. the promotion of shorter cycles must directly relate to OV a lot earlier so that the 2ww is long enough for implantation. anyway, i'm rambling now #shutupbella
also @MissMagpie LOVING your #PMA.. #yougogirl
@Dollydaydream2829 your scan pic is literally perfect. how amazing is the human body? wow, just wow! how are you feeling now? hoping the bleeding has stopped and remains that way for you #littledollydimple
@Moo31 are you expecting work to be arsey about your news? bloody hope not or we will round there in a flash #throatpunch hope you're keeping well too #minimoo
@Anna2006 i do hope you tested too early and you get a well deserved BFP on thursday. everybodies HCG levels vary and some women still get BFNs days after AF was due so it can happen #notouttilyourout
@Hippychic79 i also have a good feeling for you #goodvibes as you say, you're doing a lot to aid conception and your #PMA has been through the roof this cycle. i am hopeful that you'll be rewarded well in a day or twos time #happyhippy
@CakesALot 10 points to you for your DTD efforts! i'm well impressed #happyshagger
@AmandaP86x i thought you got some smiley faces on some OPKs this cycle or am i getting mixed up? i know you were poorly but that's maybe helped you relax and not overthink TTC this cycle #youjustneverknow
@Littleonek welcome to our #PMA thread. we're a friendly bunch who happen to love a hashtag or two #sadiknow. good luck for POAS soon. don't be discouraged by recently coming off the pill. some woman get up duffed on their first cycle TTC. it does happen! i was 20+yrs on the pill and it only took me 1 cycle to ovulate and got my BFP on cycle 3 (to say i was shocked was the understatement of the century)! are you planning on using OPKs to track ovulation or does your body give you signs?
wee update from me is that i'm a hormonal mess, called a colleague (member of senior management team but not superior) a "fucking toad" today, still doing daily pregnancy tests even though i'm 6wks+1, worst skin/spots ever since puberty but eating loads fresh foods & drinking 3ltrs of water per day, boobs have gone up a cup size & mega sore, have no energy but i'm bored doing nothing.... so basically i'm a ray of fucking sunshine #hahaha
are any other grads planning to get a gender scan? xx
