Hi all - apologies if I've missed anyone out on here, I'm half asleep 😂

@FlapJackered @BabySquid @BambiOnIce80 @CookieWaffle @Crossfitgirl @Delilah7 @MrsAW2018 @MrsC87 @MrsR16 @EltzBee @FivexFive @ValidUser @RanchoRelaxo @rj995

Is being randomly emotional a sign of pregnancy? Because I've just burst into tears in Pret with DH for literally no reason...

Still no sign of AF. Not gonna test over the weekend, don't see the point!

Ok so my being totally chill about this cycle was working until this mornings temperature......

@EltzBee @stormtrooperjulian This is so early, don't normally get them like this until the night before she arrives. It's kinda hard to distinguish between my endo pain and period pain most of the time but I knew for sure this was AF. Not due until Thursday so god knows.

@MrsEG Thank you darling. Although already feeling little teary, even though I have done so well to keep my shit together this month! My besties baby shower today...think Iv been kidding myself at how hard I'm going to find this 😩

Xxx

@sullywifey hope it goes ok today. I know how hard it is when that’s all you want for yourself xx

@sunshine1987 holy cow that's one sexy chart!! Oh my days Iv got everything crossed for you xxx

@sunshine1987 oh thank you darling. I'm going to try and out my bravest face on!!xxx

@sunshine1987 I have chart envy, now that is looking good, eeeek! Fingers crossed for you.

@SullyWifey sending virtual hugs. It's so hard isn't it, like you lovely ladies told me, we're not out til she's really here though. Look after yourself today lovely.

I'm having a PJ day, it's dark an cold so hibernating

@EltzBee thank you Hun I beed hugs. Ooo that sounds like a perfect day! I'll be doing that tomorrow for sure. Enjoy xx

Sorry can I just say my typos on here are always horrendous. Must try harder haha!!

@SullyWifey it’s horrid isn’t it! My niece is still only 5 months old, I love her to bits but sometimes when I see her I just want to burst in to tears! Try to enjoy the day x

@sunshine1987 that's one good-looking chart! How long is your LP normally?

Hi everyone!
I hope you are all okay.

I had my ultra sound yesterday to check my ovaries... and one of my ovaries is enlarged so the pornographer suspects PCOS :(

I have to wait for my blood tests before they can fully make the diagnosis but it is looking highly likely PCOS is my problem.

Does anyone else here have PCOS?
I am trying not to think about it until I am diagnosed but I am so worried its going to prevent me from having a baby. Even reading success stories isn't making me feel any better..

I'm currently on CD51! I NEVER thought I'd say this but AUNT FLO PLEASE ARRIVE! I feel so down at the moment.

Pornographer 😂😂😂 I meant sonographer bloody predictive text is a killer.

@sunshine1987 that chart is looking good!

@EssJayCee great typo 😂😂 I don’t know much about PCOS so can’t help much there but I hope you get some answers soon

How is everyone doing today?

Trying not to get excited about it as this month we weren’t trying because of our honeymoon and tests 🙈

@katbecool usually 11 days but last month was 13 days because I started pregnacare so expecting that again?

Still no positive OPK but I got EWCM today and cried with relief as it's CD18 today.

Loving the typos today!

@sunshine1987 only takes one good swimmer to get to the egg so you never know!

Must. Not. Pee. On. Stick!

@sunshine1987 POAS POAS POAS POAS I'm a bad influence idc

@EssJayyCee pornographer 😂😂😂😂 I've got PCOS but I've not had my scan yet so I can't help sorry sweet xx

@EssJayyCee - I know someone with PCOS who has gone on to have 2 gorgeous children completely fine, so if that is the case it might not be end of the world xx also CD51 holy shit, you trooper!

OPK pros - if I had an OPK really close to being the same colour as test line, then a negative one today, would you say I ovulated sometime between the two? Am on CD16, and usually ovulate somewhere between CD16-19 so this seems about right, but just checking if I'm going about my guesses in the right way...!

@starkid that's what happened to me this week, I wouldn't say you've necessarily ovulated (ov can happen 12-36 hours after positive OPK) but I'd say the surge was in between the two OPKs x

@cupcakesandglitter - Ah thanks, don't really get the surge/ovulating timings, but I guess if I DTD tonight and Monday, and already did it Thursday, I should be fairly covered haha. Thank you :)

@starkid so your OPK will pick up your surge before you ovulate, that's why they can't be used to confirm ovulation happened because it won't tell you after. I had my blood tests on CD21, my hormones showed I was in the follicular stage or something (gonna look this up later) but basically my body was gearing up to ovulate. Then this week on CD24 I had EWCM, on CD26 I had my darkest OPK (not a clear positive but the darkest one I've had by far) but then on CD27 I had negative OPKs sooo my surge would've been Between CD26-27 and so I'll ovulate 12-36 hours after that if that makes sense? When did you get your +ve? X

Think I'm out 😥 just went to the loo and when I wiped noticed some purple/brown colour on the paper (sorry for tmi). Got that heavy type feeling down there too. AF seems to be coming a few days early 😭😭😭
