I know this isn't a sign of what to come I just want your guys input.

I only have ovulation pains before I ovulate. I've never had cramps after... now I'm 2dpo and cramping. I've got no signs of CM anymore so I know it's not that. Just wondered if any of you guys have had this?

gjchapman · 16/08/2018 08:05

It's so amazing to of found this group to keep me positive and from going mad! It's good to know I'm not the only one who turns in to a sex pest around ovulation and drops him like a hot potato after lol! It's also good to know I'm not the only one who still holds out hope even though af is clearly there! And I can share my pain with you all when you get the feeling af is coming and dread going to the toilet incase your fears are right. DH doesn't understand, doesn't really want to know about ovulation and how it's now or never and doesn't understand the feeling when you convince your self it's this time and then it's not. Love to all you lovely ladies xx

gjchapman · 16/08/2018 08:07

Delilah7 I get them before to, right after af finishes until I ovulate and then they go but this time I got mine a day or so after to

Delilah7 · 16/08/2018 08:14

@gjchapman I'm very consistent with ovulation pains so it's pretty strange!

ttcat32 · 16/08/2018 08:47

Morning Ladies!

Great news on the menfolk initiating @sunshine1987 @Delilah7 🙌

Poor seabiscuit was not in the mood last night but being the master of seduction that I am I literally stood up and said "listen this is going to happen so either we do it now or we do it after you watch that but one way or another it will be done" who says romance is dead?! 😂😂

@Delilah7 maybe once more tonight just incase it's happening a bit later?

Delilah7 · 16/08/2018 09:02

@ttcat32 morning honey!

😂😂😂😂😂 he can't of said no!
If I'm honest twice in two days is pretty good for me and I'm pretty shattered in general as feeling really dizzy! can I miss a day as I DTD last night?! Please say yes 😂😂 x

MrsM2017 · 16/08/2018 09:37

Thanks for the positive vibes @Chivari, @CrystalBlaze and @FlapJackered - fingers crossed for us this month! Maybe cycle 13 is gonna be our lucky one!

@cupcakesandglitter haha I know - gonna try and hold out til Saturday at the earliest if I can! Only went and bought the frer tests yesterday and now hidden them in the glove box of my car so I don't get tempted to poas!!! 😂 (The crazy things we do, right!?)

"Shagathon"...haha that did make me laugh @sunshine1987 - we did SMEP this month your right! It's exhausting lol!

MrsM2017 · 16/08/2018 09:40

@Delilah7 I get ovulation cramps too - usually the day before and day of a positive ovulation test (very occasionally the day after) ... However like you I've had achy twinges right from about 4/5 dpo, and they're still here, which is weird...? Thinking it's too early for AF symptoms (but who knows!) and hoping it's implantation....hopefully it's the same for you x

sunshine1987 · 16/08/2018 09:48

Haha @ttcat32 the joys have seduction eh

sunshine1987 · 16/08/2018 09:49

@MrsM2017 I pray for odd number days so I can have a rest lol

Delilah7 · 16/08/2018 10:22

@MrsM2017 I hope so!!

MrsR16 · 16/08/2018 13:27

God, I've (hopefully) got this all to come! Keep persuading DH to DTD 🤣 he's not complaining yet!

ValidUser · 16/08/2018 13:48

Hello all! Just reading through thread now. Been ill with a uti.

I'm about 6dpo now. Boobs bigger and lots of ewcm and one or two episodes of spotting. Time will tell!

MrsR16 · 16/08/2018 13:50

@ValidUser fingers crossed for you!!

Delilah7 · 16/08/2018 13:52

@ValidUser fingers crossed darling x x

Delilah7 · 16/08/2018 13:57

had abit of a relapse today. tried not to mention it as this thread is so positive but I just feel emotionally drained. I've tried to keep my feelings hidden in real life regarding the MC and I just feel I'm now getting unwell from it. Feel so dizzy so low. 😔

MrsR16 · 16/08/2018 13:58

@Delilah7 that doesn't sound good lovely... I'm afraid I'm not much use for you! I can't empathise.

ValidUser · 16/08/2018 14:02

Poor @Delilah7! ThanksYou've been through a lot. There's no shame in finding things tough and we're all happy to listen. Mind yourself. X

Delilah7 · 16/08/2018 14:04

@MrsR16 thank you.
@ValidUser I know just been abit hard in myself and tried to be tough but just hadn't worked. Now feel draaaaained x

cupcakesandglitter · 16/08/2018 14:06

@Delilah7 I know how you feel, I've had four (unplanned) miscarriages before, and it is so draining and horrible, it's like mourning... but you have to stay strong. The way I think of it is they didn't work for a reason, and that when my time comes, I will have my little baba and it will have all been worth it. It's okay to not feel positive 100% (whether we've miscarried or not) TTC is hard, especially when we want it so badly. Is your partner supporting you with this? Xx

Malichick · 16/08/2018 14:13

@Delilah7 I’ve not been through a MC but just wanted to give a virtual hug 🤗 it’s ok to feel like that and keeping things bottled up won’t solve them. Feel free to rant on here :)

Delilah7 · 16/08/2018 14:20

@cupcakesandglitter yeah he's really supportive just wish he'd talk about how he feels too! sorry you've had to go through it too. I've just thrown myself into TTCing to then realise it probably won't happen for me this month 😔

@Malichick thank you Hun means a lot xx

cupcakesandglitter · 16/08/2018 14:27

@Delilah7 my DH took years to finally open up about it, but I realised I needed to know how he felt too for closure I think. Maybe try and speak about it later? And also, don't worry about whether or not you've caught this month, it's like you said when I first joined, at least you know you were able to get pregnant x just try and stay as positive as you can - have you tried any of the mindfulness techniques?

And I second @Malichick feel free to rant! XX

MrsM2017 · 16/08/2018 14:36

Lots of love @Delilah7 we're all here to listen, and it's good to get things off your chest so like others have said - you can always feel free to rant on here x

Delilah7 · 16/08/2018 14:41

@MrsM2017 @cupcakesandglitter thanks ladies really means a lot xxxx
