AF hit hard and fast today. Came home from work as could barely stand up. Onto cycle 5!

Doris19 · 25/02/2019 19:03

Aaah @ShortandSweet96 I'm sorry to hear that 😭
Hope you are able to have a quiet evening and put your feet up preferably with some wine and chocolate! Xx

ShortandSweet96 · 25/02/2019 19:07

@doris19 I feel surprising okay, other than cramps and absolutely exhausted I don't feel too disappointed. I guess it's because I'm onto month 5 so I'm nearly through the 'it can take up to 12 months' to conceive phase.

Plus I found this in home bargains on Sunday so you can imagine what my evening looks like Grin

Well it only took 2 days to work out why no one was chatting on the old thread and I couldn't comment. Fx any babies get hubbies brains lol.

Sorry to hear you're out @ShortandSweet96 - enjoy your gins tonight.

How's everyone else getting on? I've lost track a bit.

Sorry to hear that @ShortandSweet96 but you're right... onto the next one

I'm 6dpo @tedsy how about you?

Any lucky BFP'ers have any positive tips about symptom spotting from 7dpo onwards??

I'm 10 or 11 dpo today. Felt really odd on Friday - made the mistake of getting my hopes up - but have felt fine all weekend so now I don't know. Starting to lose patience with the process now.

Lauraliverpool · 25/02/2019 19:49

@agteacht glad to have found you girls! ❤️

Lauraliverpool · 25/02/2019 19:49

@Scottish1 many congratulations to you! 💕❤️

Lauraliverpool · 25/02/2019 19:54

@Doris19 went to the hospital on Saturday as had quite uncomfortable pain so they examined my tummy and did a internal, they ruled out an ectopic so said it could be constipation, wind or scar tissue from my c section, have booked me next wed for a reassurance scan when I'll be around 6 weeks, really hoping everything is going to to be ok. Hope you are ok. X

HeartvsHead · 25/02/2019 20:21

@ShortandSweet96 sorry the evil af got you. The gin mixers look amazing! I found the first couple of months I found it really upsetting but last month I was just pissed of in a 'not a-bloody-gain' type of way.

@Lauraliverpool how scary! Hopefully just trapped wind or a bit of scar tissue stretching. How long will you have to wait for a scan?

HeartvsHead · 25/02/2019 20:25

The opks seem to be doing there thing. It's still not darker than the control lone but not far off. So if doing SMEP, would you switch to every day now or wait a bit longer? I read that the test goes proper positive just after you ovulate which I think is close!

Crazee · 25/02/2019 20:28

Can I join please? I’m 2dpo on cycle 1 of ttc #2. Only early days for me, but I enjoy a bit of symptom spotting 😄

Crazee · 25/02/2019 20:31

My mistake, I’m 3dpo!

Oh @HeartvsHead does the OPK go positive after you ovulate? I thought it was the day or two before...

I had strong lines almost as good as control for two days and then one day where the line was stronger than control

I personally would DTD every day now but I'm not totally sure about SMEP...

OP posts:
HeartvsHead · 25/02/2019 21:04

@agteacht sorry I meant before! Yeah 24-36 hours before is the norm. But then sperm can live 3-5 days so was thinking maybe store some up ready for that egg (gross!)

agteacht · 25/02/2019 21:19

Haha yes I get you!
I reckon you could get the strong line tomorrow based on your last couple of days so basically ovulate in next 48-72 hours... fingers crossed x

@Lauraliverpool thats pretty stressful but sounds like they have been helpful about it and so nice to see things so early on the scans too. Thinking of you.

@HeartvsHead fx for your opk today!! Hope you got that red meat in 😉

@Crazee welcome!

Lauraliverpool · 26/02/2019 08:48

@Doris19 thank you they were helpful. I know come a week today I won't be getting much sleep. Xx

7dpo today...
Ordered a FRER which arrives tomorrow so I feel like a test on Thursday may be a likelihood...

Oh no just looked at all and I'm 6 days not 7!

Woops :/

I presume O day doesn't count...

Might have to wait until Friday now to at least 9dpo

Have zero symptoms anyway 😂

HeartvsHead · 26/02/2019 19:35

Thunderbirds are go!! Steak for dinner tonight!

@agteacht heading into POAS central there! Fingers crossed!

JadeSB · 26/02/2019 19:36

@agteacht I'm 9dpo on Friday too!

SuziQ10 · 26/02/2019 21:19

Can I ask what pregnancy tests you all use ?
After 7months of trying, I've spent a fair bit £.

Got some very cheap from amazon but have still been nipping out to the supermarket for a 'proper' test each month just to be sure.

agteacht · 26/02/2019 22:09

Go @HeartvsHead ! And DH! 😂

Ooh snap @JadeSB when do you think you'll test?

@SuziQ10 I just use the amazon cheapies but for some reason this cycle I have ordered a frer...
