The July 19ers - STILL never beaten, and rocking our FJs for a lucky thread

[Frazzlerock]

Here it is! Our lucky one 🤞

@edidxb I'm with @ratherbeshowjumping bullshit apologies are the way forward!! Outwardly apologetic, inwardly ffuming!! Ha!!

Happy birthday @Pegase!!!

No idea re the CM. I swear I don't have any!!
Although I'm10 dpo now so I'm breathing a little sigh of relief as LP not ridiculously short but yesterday kept feeling 'wet' and kept going to loo thinking that witch Af was here but it was just clear..... pulled knickers back up and felt wet and cold so obvs secreting something (tmi!) odd!!

How's the PG @TwittleBee?? You can talk about it, we are all happy for u xxx

@Kinsters what a PIA, hope it clears up soon!

Ahhhh @tigsyboo that's exactly what I had when I got a BFP 🤞🏼😬
10dpo may show up on a FRER. Have you got one?
🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

No I’ve decided after how upset the monitor made me seeing the bfn in flashing lights I’m just waiting for AF. My cycle is all over the place - Ov CD18 (I think!) and had 26day cycle last month.... I’m CD28 today and I’ll wait till CD32 if no sign of the witch then I’ll test but I know I’m out this month, it’s just been too unstable x

@edidxb I’m so sorry about your argument, is it Feb half term that you were planning to go away for? I’m assuming there isn’t much you can do to change it? Hopefully DH will have calmed down a bit later and you can get some bd in.

@Frazzle it’s good to hear you are having a fab time in Berlin. I also think it would be strange to ovulate so early, although having been on the over 40’s thread, I know it’s not impossible.

@Pegase Happy birthday! 35 is fine, don’t worry x

@Kinsters sorry to hear about the thrush, I kept getting thrush every month last year between ov and AF, I now have at least one actimel every day and I haven’t had it since. Fingers crossed it goes quickly for you.

@Tigsy you are very strong not testing, I don’t think I could hold out and I do think it could sound promising! Thank you so much for the pregnacare, it arrived yesterday 😘

We had a lovely day out yesterday at Old Trafford, we got an 8:30am train and didn’t get home until gone 10pm, so it was a long and tiring day, but worth it. Neither of our boys saw the second goal, we were sat behind the goal, but everyone stands up so they couldn’t see. DS2 was so upset that he missed it, it was heartbreaking. They both saw the first goal, it was a penalty, so there was time to get them standing on their seats.

Oh yes @Kinsters I take probiotic capsules from Holland and Barrett if I feel thrush might be coming on and it often keeps it at bay. They need to be kept in the fridge.

Totally missed your post Pegase ! Happy Birthday!

Oh bloomin hate thrush Kin ! Hope it clears up soon

That certainly sounds promising though doesn't it tigsyboo feeling that wet? Thats certainly a symptom for me. Really FX that you'll see a BFP soon.

My PG is okay. Obviously super thrilled to be PG again but had spotting this morning. Been passing out too from feel so dizzy. Cramping pretty bad. Also lost 3lbs so far as can't eat, lost my appetite. Feel like it's all gonna go wrong any minute now.

Oh bless them missing that 2nd goal Rose68 but does sound like you all had a good day otherwise

God @TwittleBee that sounds awful. Did you have all those symptoms before? For my one successful pregnancy, I just remember horrific overwhelming morning sickness / exhaustion. And lots of spotting incidentally.

Only the spotting amd cramps previously Pegase , with other pregnancies I was ravenous. DH has sent me to bed as he said I look like shit. Meant to be going to my Niece's birthday party in couple hours!

Oh no Twittle that sounds tough. How far along are you now?

I'll double down on the probiotics and I've got canesten to use tonight so hopefully it'll be good to go when DH is back from working away and just in time for O. I haven't had thrush for ages but used to get it pretty regularly. Drinking probiotics has definitely helped.

Happy birthday @Pegase - a fellow January Capricorn birthday - just a week later than me and 2 years younger! I hope you have had a great birthday :-)
@kinsters - hope it clears up soon. I too am a sufferer......
@Twittlebee - I hope you feel better. It's just awful - being pregnant, feeling pregnant and worrying the whole time.....
@Rose68 - what a long day!! You guys must be so tired today!!
@ratherbe and @tigsy - I have sent a long email during the day explaining how sorry I am for everything etc etc. Haven't heard anything back which is not a good sign.

I am still getting ewcm today so must be ovulating tonight or the morning. I will be as nice to DH as I can when he gets home but it's not looking good for this month. Which is awful. It just seems like such a stretch to wait another 4 weeks until I am in this position again!
As a whole he is reasonably onboard. I don't think it's his life dream to have a child but we have discussed it, he does want one and the two mc last year were hard on us both. He understands about the limited time each month, yet doesn't want pressure.

@frazzle - glad you are having a great time. Is it cold?

Happy birthday @Pegase.

Quick update, still following you all. You’d think two mc, now AF was bad enough but now I have norovirus... life’s a joy...

Happy b'day @Pegase!

@Kinsters I think limiting sugars can help too, thrush feeds on it

@TwittleBee sorry you're feeling so rough, you really do deserve a successful pg this time xx

Yes I could definitely do with eating less sugar Betty. I have a weakness for ice cream and also carbs.

edidxb I hope your DH pulled himself together.

Oh @edidxb, I hope your DH replied to your email and you managed to dtd? Feel so frustrated for you. I don't think men really comprehend that you literally sit and wait for 4 weeks for those precious few days.

@Kinsters how's your thrush now? Hope you're feeling better. So uncomfortable...!

@Twittle please, please don't think you can talk to us about it. I'm sorry you're feeling so rotten. Hopefully that's all positive, especially so early on? How's your anxiety? I honestly think I'll be a nervous wreck. As if and when that day ever comes! Hope the party was OK? I bet a kids party is probably the last thing you fancied last night...?

Bad luck comes in three's @Buggles... poor you! Hope you feel better soon

@tigsy how are you this morning? I've got such a good feeling about this for you

We had a really lovely weekend away albeit busy, and I'm shattered now. I need to have a conversation with DH about sex tonight - after the first year, our sex life dwindled and now it's absolutely non-existent. We haven't dtd since the 30th Dec. He's completely on board with ttc but actually just getting round to doing it is impossible... I'm not sure my self esteem can take another turkey baster incident this time around

Finally! Spotting this morning, hopefully the first AF is finally here...

@rather just to say you are not alone in the irregular sex life stakes. Over here, DH wants more sex. I want more emotional intimacy. He says he can't do emotional closeness which puts me off having sex w him. Not very clever but there you go (doesn't help with ttc, either....). Is your DH willing to have The Conversation?

Morning All

Happy birthday for yesterday @Pegase !

I think I might be dead today....

Only 5+1 here if going by when FF reckons I Ovd kin so pretty early I feel for it to be this intense. I have my MW bboking app on Thursday as they go by LMP still so they have me down at 6+5

edidxb Hope that he soon realises that actually the limited time frame each month means there has to be some sort of pressure!

Buggles ouch! Get well soon!!

rather thank you. I did manage to get there. My sister so knows I am PG, we have telepathy - idk its hard to explain. she gave me the knowing look and asked me if i am finding it easier this time. I didnt really acknowlegde her question which made her do this look which I know means she knows! anyway, meant she let me rest and not feel like i had to join in much.

Really hope that conversation went well with your DH. Is there anything you feel able to do to ramp it all back up again?

Betty ah hope that AF is easy non you and GL for this cycle

Frazzle oh no! what is up?

@TwittleBee I have a neighbour who always knows before I do. She once admitted that when I'm pg I look so ill, I make her feel ill by association (thanks a lot!!) so maybe it's more obvious than I thought 😂

haha maybe that is why my sister knew then Betty ! Nice to know we must look like crap haha

MW just called me actually, she has booked me in for an early scan tomorrow afternoon. Really feel positive about this MW this time round, just hope the PG is positive too

Oh it didn't post my picture! Hold on...

Weird it's showing on my mobile app but not browser version.
Here it is again...

See. Dead as a dodo

Blimey that is a drop Frazzle but certainly back to being pre Ov temp now

Just a quick note as I am at work bit taking a quick break.
Not good news. No DTD unfortunately and there won't be tonight either. Which is such a shame as I haven't ovulated yet as have the ewcm still and no rise of temp. So if we had been able last night would have been perfect timing. But it wasn't to be.....
However, he is now speaking me to me which is something and says we will be fine. I didn't even bring up TTC as it would have made the whole situation worse than it already is!
I'll mention it some time next week and say it was a shame we missed the opportunity so we have to make the most of the next one.
I have acupuncture today which almost feels like a waste for this month but I think it helps with egg quality and fertility in general so hope it will just help prepare for next month.
Next time I write I will try and make it less all about me and reply to everyone!!!
