@Boboelephant definitely agree ignorance is bliss. I will be 13dpo Saturday and plan to test but really dont want a bfn! So the longer i wait, the longer i can pretend there is a chance!

Love all the cute pet pics 😍 got to put one up of our pup.
@yellowdaffodils86 It’s bloody tough going but hang in there ❤️. When is test day?
Aw sorry @passtheaftereights a few of the girls have said it before but sometimes it’s almost better just to get AF than to see that BFN. Sending hugs 🤗
Don’t worry @strawberrye my sister first conceived at 25 and it took her a good 6 months. You never know when you are right around the corner.
@L1zz13 that looked like a lovely chilled glass of wine! Hope you are doing ok.
@boboelephant temp charting can be so confusing sometimes!! I would go for the middle figure and just make a note that it’s a dodgy one. I think my problem is I focus too much on one day when it’s the big picture you got to look at. Fingers crossed for tomorrow!!! 🤞
I took another opk today and it was a lot lighter, so dare I say it...I think I’m 2dpo. I spoke to my acupuncturist and told her that I started taking evening primrose oil and she instantly pulled a face and said oh yeah that would delay ovulation. Don’t think it happens to everyone but if any of you are thinking about taking it it’s maybe something to be aware of.

Hi y’all, enjoy the sunshine. Let’s hope it’s the start of a good summer for us all.
@laney79 Thinking of you today. Let us know how you get on.

YellowDaffodils86 · 18/04/2018 14:29

@ek78 I'm home now. Had to sign to say it was against medical advice but so be it.

Bit worried-went to the loo when I got home (desperate for a wee) and there were (sorry tmi) little white bits around my foof and flaps...does this mean they haven't worked? Didn't feel like chalky bits (I inserted the tablets myself and they looked like hexagonal aspirin) but I'm petrified I did it wrong/not far enough up or something?

They've said I have to wait a week and if nothing/not enough happens ring again...if I bleed then wait three weeks and do a test and ring them to let them know result.

I just really need This to be over now.

Oh and here's my boy-five and a half stone of lurcher called Lenny. X

Lenny is gorgeous!! I have such dog jealousy today!
Well done on being brave and going in to get the pessaries today.
I would sit tight and see what happens today. I’m sure as they dissolve some bits are normal but hopefully others who had mm can advise?

YellowDaffodils86 · 18/04/2018 15:57

@Laney79 im really sorry everything has dragged on and on for and you are having to still endure all of today and next few weeks.
It really isnt fair, as if just having a MC isnt bad enough! I hope this is the last of it and in a few weeks you can finally start a fresh.
XxThanksThanks

Total pet envy today - but it’s a nice distraction from TWW! X

Lovewinemorethanhusband · 18/04/2018 18:13

Well AF arrived 8 days early changing me to a 28 day cycle this time rather than a 35 which I have been, meaning I was out before starting as didnt even do it in the correct time!!

Boboelephant · 18/04/2018 18:51

Thanks @weasledee. Hope your appt goes ok and gives you some answers. Also hope you get lucky in the next three months!!
@YellowDaffodils86 totally agree!! Tomorrow is 12dpo so if pregnant really should get a line but so scared the stark whiteness will taunt me!
@Claire138 thankyou. Fingers crossed!! I do hope you are getting back to normal and this is your lucky (long) month. Mine too!! 🤣
Very cute animals all!! Feeling a bit sad I don't have one!!
@Laney79 so sorry it's still dragging. Well done for managing today.hope it's over sooner rather than later.
@Lovewinemorethanhusband so sorry af arrived. Fingers crossed for next time.

Well i caved and did a FRER when i got home this evening. The lovely white stark BFN appeared of course! So now im sulking despite it still being early. I was still getting BFN at 12dpo last time so i guess i should be positive.

@Lovewinemorethanhusband sorry AF arrived, fingers crossed for next month. 🤞

Primrose16 · 18/04/2018 19:49

@Laney79 oh bless you I hope things start happening soon. You did well to do it yourself. I had the tablets under my tongue I don’t think I could have coped inserting anything.

Loving the dogs. My little lady is so excited by dogs and loves my mums dog. I’d love to have one but I honestly dont know how people find the time. Sorry for the BFP today ladies 😢
It feels refreshing this month not feeling the need to test. I was convinced AF was on its way today at work (kept feeling leaky and wet- sorry!)

Sloeberrygin · 18/04/2018 20:42

@L1zz13 that's not a great system! How frustrating for you. May 17th is pretty ridiculous, but maybe by then things will have sorted themselves out for you. But so rubbish you have to wait that long.
@YellowDaffodils86 yep it's like groundhog day! It feels so crap to keep having to go through the same tww routine over and over.
@Laney79 I'm sending lots of positive thoughts your way. Hoping things resolve themselves soon.

I'm joining the people who aren't feeling very positive today. I had a stressful meeting at work today, I just felt totally useless. I don't know why but somehow this mc has really shattered my confidence at work. I was so close to tears but obviously had to hold it together. It feels like I'll never be pregnant again, and it's hard to feel very optimistic about things. Pity party going on here tonight!

Boboelephant · 18/04/2018 20:43

@YellowDaffodils86 sorry for the bfn! But 10dpo taken in the evening, you're definitely not out!
@Primrose16 hope you're doing ok.

Bobo you testing tomorrow ?

@peachesarenom hahahah!! Neighbours cat!! 🤣😂

@Boboelephant I'm sooo excited for tomorrow!!

Anyone else close to testing?

L1zz13 · 18/04/2018 20:55

Sending some puppy lovin - I'm still waiting. On the up side husband gets another birthday shag 😉

zarala · 18/04/2018 20:56

@Laney79 thinking of you as I was there not too long ago..really hope it goes quickly smoothly and not too uncomfortable. I found coconut water helped keep me hydrated when I was going through the worst and feeling quite faint...anyway fingers crossed this is over for you very soon!

I am loving the pets! Here's our little griffon Kingston. He was our practise baby- and I thought he was hard work! 🙄

I'm sorry for the BFNs- and sorry @Lovewinemorethanhusband that must be so frustrating! Our bodies are so unpredictable

@Boboelephant still got all my Fingers crossed for you!

@Primrose16 Hmm interesting- I had that when I was pregnant last- kept thinking it was AF but it was just very leaky!... but I think our bodies just do weird stuff and everything can be a sign...

My DH cannot wait to start TTC because I've told him I can't be bothered with all this POAS and temping and all this stuff that you ladies do ( I am in awe, frankly) but we're going to attempt to DTD every other day until it happens - ambitious I know- but a) it's a good work out and b) I have lingerie that could be put to good use before I get knocked up, have baby and never have to do it again 🙄
WE're not TTC yet for at least a couple more cycles - so let's see how enthusiastic I remain about this new plan!

Love how many people have dogs!! 😍

Lovewinemorethanhusband · 18/04/2018 21:16

I'm so jealous of everyone's dogs I'd love one but my boy is absolutely terrified of them,
I'm hoping that my cycle will work itself out and fingers crossed I'll get lucky although AF arriving today explains why I wanted to murder my husband yesterday for no real reason lol
Fingers crossed for the rest of you in tww. Next month the rest of us will be on a pregnancy board I can feel.it xx
