ClearBlue Strippers

O'd yesterday! Anyone fancy joining me on a 2ww?

Sorry to hear you are feeling down, Clacton, this is an emotional rollercoaster of a journey for sure. I felt terrible last week with suspected chemical and pregnancy envy, and reallt struggled to stop moping.

Fingers crossed for those going into 2ww.

I started with the digi yesterday and had a flashing smiley this morning, which by my reckoning is CD 9 and seems really early? CM starting to go a bit egg white already but that is fairly usual forme. Plenty of DTD this weekend but will see how it pans out with a static face. Feel a bit like it is being kind to me and giving me a flasher to remind me its a new month and cheer me up a bit sooner ha.

Oh Clacton! I wish I could give you a massive hug. Try and demand what you want from the Dr's and make sure you let them know just how much this is getting to you. It's horrible having a cycle that'll never end and you keep getting BFNs, I hope you get some answers soon.
You could do with a treat to look forward to!

I was given a box of chocs at work today, so I'm planning on scoffing the lot of them with hubby tomorrow (our cheat day).

Sorry to hear you feel shit, can't imagine how frustrated you must feel. Treat yourself to something nice this weekend.

If it's any consolation I feel really upset too. After my temperature drop this morning to pre-O levels, I've just started spotting. I'm only 3dpo. Sounds like I have fuck all progesterone.

Really hoping this is because it's my first O since coming off the pill and not because there is something wrong with me but I can't help but worry

Having said that if this is AF, the cramps aren't too painful and I was worried they would be once I stopped the pill so there is that (trying to think positive!)

Mctufty last cycle was my first after coming off the pill, about 3 dpo I had pink when I wiped but nothing came of it. Also my AF ended up a week late. Try not to worry as there are a number of things it could be :)

Thanks cheryl, hopefully just my body adjusting to the change in hormones and it will sort itself next cycle.

Can't believe all that sweaty shagging earlier this week was for nothing though!!

It might not be yet! AF hasnt started for you yet.
Even the change in hormones can start spotting or it could be from ovulation... there are loads of things :)

Sadly AF has now started. I think I have the world record for shortest luteal phase ever recorded

wow! It'd be impressive if you weren't trying to avoid it altogether!
Get yourself a nice treat, only a few days till you can start trying again.

Yeah impressive! But obviously makes it impossible to conceive. I am wondering whether coming off the pill has affected it and my progesterone isn't sorted yet or something and hopefully it will improve as the hormones leave my system, otherwise that's the end of me ever getting pregnant

Coming off the pill can mess with your body so I'm hoping that's all it is for you :). I was reading something about what you can do to help your progesterone levels, maybe it's worth a Google?

Sorry to hear McTufty that sucks. It can take a few months (3-6) before your cycles settle after being on the pill - I came off in November and only this last cycle has everything settled. It's normal, but frustrating. Months before I ovulated, cycle lengths all over the place...

Right, when's everyone testing again?!

Morning!

I'm testing on the 6th!

Morning all.

4th day of flashing smileys today. Lots of dtd this weekend but DP left for work this morning, primed to come back the day of a solid smile. I think it will be Friday for ov, so no testing for me til around the 10th. I am hoping that killer period / possible chemical means that cycle is normal now.

McTufty I hope you are feeling positive today. It's dreadful when your cycle is all weird and you just have no idea what is occurring. Sympathy.

Hi Ladies,

maybe we could update with what CD we are on etc. I think we are all over the place!!

I'm going to start temping this month. I'm not sure whether I've actually O'd this month!

Yep that helps.

I cannot face temping just yet Kuba I will confuse myself, forget, and then panic I don't understand the chart :)

@LimpLettice how do you like the ovulation tests? I really liked them. Got a static on day 5. Shagged that day and the following. Still going to keep going every couple of days if I can 💃

Thank you everyone for the support. I'm a bit better today. I'm going to focus on a healthy diet and excercise, plus my supplements. Off to acupuncture today. Nothing more I can do but wait it out, and I'm sure it will get longer than 3 days. Just have to hope it gets enough longer to conceive!

Day 4

Last pill taken: 17 May

limplettuce I know what you mean about the temping. I'm doing it at the moment which is fine but after I am supposed to ovulate I will be nervous about doing so in case my temp doesn't rise! Half wondering whether to stop but I do want the most info possible about my body.

Well I am hoping for a static face soon so I can see whats what - pre DD I always ov'd around CD13, which I dont think is going tohappen thismonth so it will be useful to see what's changed. So far though itis good to at least see something positive while poas!

I am sure it will, McTufty. I think some of us spent so long trying NOT to get pregnant, and being used to what happens on birth control that it is a bit of a shock to the system to realise actually its much more complex than that and our bodies do need to adjust back again. Well for me, anyway. And at 32 I have a feeling it was vastly easier than it is going to be at 39.

So I've O'd about a week later than normal. Amazing what (work) stress can do to your body!!

How is everyone getting on?! I'm due to test in 7 days..... hmmm!

wow so close now! How are you feeling?

Emmmm nothing haven't felt in previous non pregnant months 😂🙈

How are you getting on? 😊
