Morning, checking in. Thanks for creating the new thread :)

FlapJackered · 08/01/2019 09:06

Sorry @Bettythecat I knew I had forgotten some important people 🙈
It does go fast doesn't it!

My stats recap:

Age: 30
Cycle: 8 - started ttc in March 2018.
Cd: 8
Trying Soy Isoflavones this cycle which have made me an emotional wreck 😭, but with 1 more cycle until a year ttc, desperate times call for desperate measures! 😂

Morning all, thanks for the new thread @FlapJackered I'm awful at keeping up to date 😂 other than the emotional bit how're you finding them? Xx

Stats: I'm 23, cycle 7, CD8 😊

Jessikka · 08/01/2019 09:09

Age: 28
Cycle: 1 - first off BC so all over the shop!
Cd 16.

Pill cycles used to be 25 but may have changed now; I love the lack of control..... it’s great.... I’m not frustrated at all....

starkid · 08/01/2019 09:12

I swear I've only just done recap, these threads sure move fast!

Age: 29
Cycle: 5 (but came off contraception March 2018)
CD: 7
TTC: #1

Well I tried using my clearblue digital opk test again this morning and it failed, no flashing symbol and the stick had no blue lines on it whatsoever when I opened it! So have given up on that for this month as it will have reset again now. So back on the internet cheapies...

Hope everyone is doing ok xx

Also tagging @Delilah7 in case you want to catch up still Smile

Delilah7 · 08/01/2019 09:12

Hi ladies ❤️

FlapJackered · 08/01/2019 09:17

@cupcakesandglitter side effects have otherwise not been too bad, and had my last dose last night. I had a headache the first day but otherwise I'm just unreasonably crying all the time! I am not really a crier either I think I have cried more in the last 5 days than I have in the last year! 😂
I went for a walk with DH on Sunday got the dog into the car, drove to the walking spot, parked up. I had forgotten my wellies - cue actual convulsive sobbing from me 😂😂 DH looked terrified! 😂😂 we had to drive back to get them. 🙈
I am not going to miss the Soy, but really hoping they work after all that!!
Are you doing opks this cycle?

@Jessikka 😂😂 me too, it's the best thing about ttc isn't it, that exhilarating uncertainty! 🙄

FlapJackered · 08/01/2019 09:19

🙈 Sorry @Delilah7 knew I had forgotten to tag some major ones! Hope you're doing well lovely? Has the nausea died down at all yet? X

Delilah7 · 08/01/2019 09:22

@FlapJackered I ended up in hospital. Was not a nice experience. On extremely strong meds which concerns but hospital wouldn't of given them if not safe so. X

MrsAW2018 · 08/01/2019 09:28

Thanks for the new thread @FlapJackered !

Here's my stats:

Age: 24
Cycle: 8
CD: 23
DPO: 5/6 (not entirely sure!)

Let's hope this thread brings us all some BFPs! X

FlapJackered · 08/01/2019 09:34

@Delilah7 oh god you poor thing! That sounds really scary but I am sure the drugs are safe so try not to worry, if you're well the baby will be well. ❤️

Hi everyone. Hope you're all doing ok today. My first new thread recap!

Age: 32
Cycle: 5
Cd: 12

Based on opks my o day is today but unfortunately only managed to dtd once at the beginning of my fw so not holding out much hope for this cycle.

I've learnt so much from you all though and I'm feeling positive there's going to be lots of good news round these parts soon Smile

MrsEG · 08/01/2019 09:40

Thanks for the tag lovelies! These threads move so fast! I hope I haven’t missed any more BFPs - is anyone testing soon?

I had a bit of spotting the last few days which was a worry but had blood work at the EPU and it has come back fine, my HCG levels doubled over 48 hours. Need another test tomorrow and possibly and early scan, but FX everything is looking okay!

Hope everyone is doing great. Lucky thread 11 I feel for even more double-pink lines!!

Ttc #1
CD15
Cycle 1

First cycle of using OPKs and temping. Learnt so much in the last 2 weeks from all of your inputs and experiences.
🤞 we'll be getting a BFP soon. The TWW is going to be so looooong xx

19Bee2 · 08/01/2019 10:44

Morning all,
Thank you for the new thread @FlakJackered

27
Cycle 1
CD13 (due to ovulate 16/17) so all systems go at the moment Wink

Hope everyone is having a good Tuesday! First full week of the year for many I expect!

KatBeCool · 08/01/2019 10:59

@FlapJackered bfn. More like wtf. Temp still up this morning, boobs still sore, it's now 14dpo, which has never happened, the longest my luteal phase has been was 13 days. And my cycles are always within two to three days regular. I've almost fainted twice yesterday, that rarely happens, and not twice in one day. I had, I wouldn't even call it spotting, just a tiny bit, close to nothing, brown-tinged cm just before bed, nothing since. I kept checking because I thought AF was here, but no. I don't normally spot for long before af, a few hours maybe, so it'd show up by now if that was it. I'm confused. I'm not meant to have things happen normally, there's always a twist.

@Delilah7 I hope everything is well with you now that you're out of the hospital!

Ember25 · 08/01/2019 11:31

Long-time lurker, first-time poster!

Cycle 4
CD2! (she got me yesterday, but it doesn't seem to be very heavy at all)

Not charting or temping or anything, just taking everything pretty easy for now, and glancing at an ovulation calculator every month to see when I should be ramping up the BDing :) Hello!

Bettythecat · 08/01/2019 11:36

Urgh @KatBeCool it sounds so frustrating. Something similar happened to me last cycle- boobs sore and lumpy, hot, felt a bit sick and no period. Period finally arrived 3 days later than planned 😞 after a couple of BFNs. Was pretty rubbish. Hopefully you don’t get the same though- maybe you ovulated a bit later than you thought? Did you use an early detection or a normal test?

KatBeCool · 08/01/2019 11:40

@Bettythecat I used a frer. At this point I'll just wait and see what happens. I'm not going to test again any time soon.
