Figured I'd start this up before we completely fill the other without a link.

@LookingAtTheStars89 Yeah I tend to be either absolutely wide awake or unable to stay awake - it’s useful 😂

Fingers crossed that this is a symptom for you though! 😃

LookingAtTheStars89 · 14/12/2017 11:49

@Foreverretro. Fingers crossed. I usually get a spot breakout before flo but my skin looks good. I think the pregnancy vitamins are helping with that though!

Fx for you all x

ImpatientMammy · 14/12/2017 13:23

Guys I need a bit of advice I've been almost bleeding (spotting?) like brownish sometimes red or pink usually with cm for the past week. I'm pretty certain I'm not pregnant but is this pertentially my period or do you think it's more likely to be leading up to the real thing? This will be my first post mirena removal I have a small pad in but it's mainly just when I wipe. Sorry if this is tmi I just want to know what to put in my app and weather my OH will miss my next ovulation x

Aph413 · 14/12/2017 13:34

ImpatientMammy my first period post mirena was exactly the same. It took 3 months to get that... However I've ovulated bang on time for a 28 day cycle this time round so I'd maybe put it down as spotting and any day that was bright red I'd put as period flow.
Hopefully that's some help to you

Thank you @Aph413 I'll keep an eye on it and buy loads of ovulation tests to help me know what's going on x

Sodasoda · 14/12/2017 13:49

Impatientmammy - I don't know anything about coil removal im afraid but everything I've read says that you only mark down CD1 of AF when you have red flow, the rest of the time it's just spotting. Can you take a pregnancy test just to be sure maybe? And then just do plenty of OPKs to catch it while your body adjusts from the coil xx

ImpatientMammy · 14/12/2017 14:04

I got a negative one yesterday I have 9ICs left so I'll test again Sunday when AFs due to be sure but I definitely didn't have this much spotting with my first x

RDW1989 · 14/12/2017 14:15

TTC cycle#1 so still getting my head around my cycle. I don't actually know when I ovulate but looking back at my app I always get EWCM on day 11 and sometimes day 10 (I have a 26 day cycle). Today is cycle day 13 and my app's predicting that I'll ovulate tomorrow.

Since CD11 I have had major bloating and gas, non stop burping, farting, and stomach pains from wind (sorry, TMI!), which is unusual, and frequent urination. Just now I have had short stabbing pains in the side of my stomach. Not sure if this is a sign of something - maybe ovulation? maybe something else?

LookingAtTheStars89 · 14/12/2017 16:48

A bit of tmi here girls but today I have visited the ladies ... and not for a wee lol like 6 times today!! Normally I go like every other day Shock

Do you think it's hormonal?

Gem173 · 14/12/2017 17:08

@LookingAtTheStars89
Yes that is hormononal I would think. I get it mostly around ovulation and then during my period but hardly any time during the other days of my cycle!
When are you testing? Seems like a very good indicator ! :)

Gem173 · 14/12/2017 17:09

@FruitAndNutty how’s things going with you? Have you tested again? :)

LookingAtTheStars89 · 14/12/2017 17:38

@Gem173. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that's it's a positive sign. I have felt a bit warm and nauseated on and off. I am going to test Saturday :-)

Gem173 · 14/12/2017 18:16

@LookingAtTheStars89
Same here had nausea (like motion sickness) on and off, had cramps that were similar to ovulation but not I’m getting a sharp pain just above my vagina, and feel bloated (although did eat a 12” sub today which I never do, only eat 6”). Been feeling weird and tired. But I think I’m just imagining half of it. I expect af will show early this month.

LookingAtTheStars89 · 14/12/2017 18:59

@Gem173. Im starving all of the time! I feel almost, like a have a cold but not, if that makes sense lol. My cramps feel a bit ovulatey/need the loo lol.

FruitandNutty · 14/12/2017 19:11

@Gem173 I waited to buy some Frers so did one when I got home as well as a cbd. Frer negligible, cbd says negative. Looks like it may just have been an evap yesterday x

peterpanwendy · 14/12/2017 19:27

Thanks @ImpatientMammy @Kkk87 @Gem173 I'm so glad I have people to talk to about it! Imagine if I didn't.. I'd have come away from the docs yesterday feeling awful!

@LookingAtTheStars89 I'm ok, didn't test today either so haven't tested in about 60 hours! (My record the past 3 weeks) Blush
I am still so confused as to what to do next cycle, I meant to do an OPK today but forgot. I am 'entering my fertile window' hypothetically if I'd had a period this month, will it go like normal?!
How are you? Any sign of AF? X

I am CD41, 25DPO, 10 days late! Going mad. Still no sign of AF Confused lots of early pg symptoms but assuming it's a BFN as it was on Tuesday.

peterpanwendy · 14/12/2017 19:30

@RDW1989 sounds like OV to me! Welcome to the bus, it's very busy lots of lovely supportive ladies x

ImpatientMammy · 14/12/2017 19:41

Fx for you both. @Gem173 and. @LookingAtTheStars89

@FruitandNutty try with FMU

So my closest friends there's 4 of us I'm the only one not currently pregnant I've sat down today to see them all talking on our group chat about how much they'll miss cheese and alcohol this Christmas and I just want to cry I'm trying to convince myself the this is spotting not an extremely light weird period which is why I think ok telly this to you lovely lot and not the January board but there has been a bit of red today and then it went brown again (still just when I wipe) sorry this is gross but I'm gutted x

hungryradish · 14/12/2017 19:48

Oh gosh that's really hard @impatientMammy :( sorry you are in that situation!

I have absolutely nothing to report myself- no af, no bfp, no anything at the moment.

ImpatientMammy · 14/12/2017 19:51

Awww I'm so pleased they're pregnant our first borns are the same age (that's how we met) and I've been so excited every single time they've announced it. I just think it was bad timing and I didn't realise how much I wanted it I don't think x

LookingAtTheStars89 · 14/12/2017 20:54

@peterpanwendy. Sorry you are still in the dark. I'm totally confused as the glow app seems to have changed my period due date to Saturday! So I will see what happens on Saturday and test if flo doesn't arrive. I am hoping this confusion doesn't go over Christmas else I won't know if I can drink or not!

I'm the same with the symptoms! We've still been dtd every 2-3 days just in case though as I've never been in this predicament before.

I had light cramps and a bit of wetness this morning so expected flo but nada. I have had 6 bm today though! My stomach reckons we could eat a 18inch pizza to ourselves lol (we wouldn't obviously but we feel like we could)

Kkk87 · 14/12/2017 21:19

I'm in the same boat @ImpatientMammy my 3 closest friends are pregnant .. along with about another 8 people I know and that's not even an exaggeration! Makes things harder doesn't it x

Sodasoda · 14/12/2017 21:26

That sounds tough impatientmammy. Do they know you're TTC?

Nothing to report here. 8DPO. No symptoms, no feelings either way. Temps still high but my chart is looking really similar to last month. Not due AF til next Wednesday and really really going to try not to test before then. You may all have to talk me down! Blush

Gem173 · 14/12/2017 22:18

Same here @LookingAtTheStars
I’m glad there are so many people going through the same thing, @peterpanwendy although it’s comforting I still feel like I’m obsessing just a little bit!
@FruitAndNutty don’t worry you still have time :) keep us updated xx
